Abstract

A Master’s course research project with a qualitative approach, a phenomenological character, and methodologized in the theoretical-philosophical-methodological approach of Martin Heidegger, to be developed between 2010 and 2011, with the objective of understanding the meaning, for the nursing team, about caring for a child with an advanced oncological illness that no longer responds to healing treatments. The field stage will be developed in a teaching hospital in South Brazil, in three units; a center of treatment for children and adolescents with cancer, a pediatric intensive therapy unit, and a mobile chemotherapy unit. The participants will be nursing teams from the three units. Data production will be carried out through phenomenological interviews: for analysis, the two Heideggerian methodical moments will be developed – vague and median comprehension and the hermeneutic.
