Abstract

Introduction: Meeting family needs without considering their desires and what they feel as needs result in dissatisfaction with the quality of care and services received from the healthcare team. Therefore, this study was conducted to compare family needs from the perspective of nurses and mothers of hospitalized children in the pediatric intensive care unit of selected centers in Tehran hospitals.
Method: In this descriptive-comparative study, 110 mothers with children hospitalized in the pediatric intensive care unit and 110 nurses working in the aforementioned units participated. mothers and nurses were available in three educational and medical centers in Tehran in 2022. Data was collected using the Family Needs Inventory questionnaire for individuals with a family member hospitalized in the intensive care unit. mothers and nurses separately answered the questionnaire's questions using a 5-point Likert scale.
Results: The mean and standard deviation of the overall family needs score from the perspective of mothers were (33.129 ± 9.43) and from the perspective of nurses were (49.127 ± 8.80). 68.7% of mothers and 66.8% of nurses reported the importance of meeting family needs. There was a significant difference in estimating the need for closeness to the child between nurses and mothers (P = 0.020).
Conclusion: Given the similarities in the two groups' perspectives, there seem to be other barriers to meeting the important needs of families with hospitalized children in the pediatric intensive care unit.
