Abstract
- Objective: to understand the process of handover of nurses in Adult Intensive Care Units. Method: study with a qualitative approach, whose data collection was performed between October and December 2020, through nonparticipant observation and semi-structured interview conducted in five intensive care units of a public hospital in the state of Bahia, Brazil. Results: two main categories emerged: Praxis of the handover to improve care and barriers that impair communication during the handover. It was possible to understand the process of shift, based on the looks of intensive nurses, which have structural elements for effective communication that reverberate in the continuity of care. Final considerations: in the process of handover of nurses, structural and environmental conditions, such as parallel conversations, dispersion, lack of attention, interruptions, anticipated egress and noise were characterized as barriers that caused failures and interfered in the communication process.
