[Care of hospitalized children: reflexions about the participation of parents].
The care of a child admitted in the hospital is going through meaningful changes and, in a more actual approach, the main strategy seems to stimulate parents or relatives to stay with their children in the hospital. The purpose of this study is to analyse parents' participation in the process of staying in the hospital with their children. We have chosen the qualitative method and used as a theoretic--methodological reference the Model of Technological Work Organization. Based on the process of work, we have pointed out that bringing mothers to the ward is not so simple as it interferes in the reorganization of the work at the theoretical and practical levels. Concepts such as co-operation and partnership are built, however, sharing knowledge, power and room is not a simple action. It implies in changes of values and postures by parents and professionals.

[Organization of neonatal nursing in the region of Ribeirão Preto-SP. Brazil-1992].
The present study analyses the organization of newborn care in different nurseries in the region of Ribeirão Preto as well as how nursing participates in this work. Through observation and interviews in 4 nurseries, we found that the work organization varies according to the hospital size and complexity. Action is centred on the child and in more complex cases, priority is given to the pathology and clinical care. We also observe enlarged actions, involving the binomial mother-child and the family. The quality of care is a result of a complex combination of human resources, material and installation. Bigger and more complex institutions present a diversity of personnel, more bureaucracy and hierarchy, information and technology system, routine procedures by written norms and more sophisticated equipment. The object of action is centred on the child, but there are practices in which the object is enlarged to the binomial mother-child and the family.

[Assistance to parents of preterm newborns at neonatal units].
The purpose of this study is to reflect about the assistance to be given to parents of preterm and low weight babies, born in neonatal units, based on existing literature and the authors' practical experiences. Although mothers right to be close to their babies is assured by law, most of the nurseries still keep strict visit schedules to parents. However, there are some units where mothers' permanency is allowed. The question, in these cases, is if parents effective involvement in the care of the baby should or should not be allowed. For the nursing care unit, the authors suggest some intervention strategies to adapt parents to the new situation, and to strengthen the relationship between them and the baby. The recommendations are as follows: parents free access to the nurseries; motivation of early physical contact between parents and baby; implementation of multi-professional support groups to help parents during the different stages of clinical evolution; incentive for breastfeeding, and direct care of the babies; structuring of formal and informal groups of support for parents during and after hospitalization.
