ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to integrative review of publications concerning the role of speech and language therapists in regards to communication strategies in palliative care, as well as the characterization of the types of communication used in these cases. The search was conducted in the databases SciELO, LILACS and PubMed from 2001 to 2016. The studies selected included abstracts or full articles addressing aspects of communication in palliative care, especially those related to speech and language therapy, with an emphasis on communication. Ten articles focused on communication, and published after 2004, were selected, half being literature reviews, two, case reports, two others, quantitative exploratory studies, and one, a qualitative exploratory study, with only 3 specifically describing the communication strategies used by speech and language therapists in patients in palliative care. The descriptors found were: palliative care, communication, speech and language therapy, quality of life, dysphagia, swallowing and elderly. Four of the ten articles showed the importance of patients communication in palliative care. When described, it is up to the speech and language therapist to provide family support, evaluate the patient, favore patient-family and patient-team intervention, manage and intervene in communication and swallowing. Finally, the most used communication strategies were non-verbal communication, communication board, electronic equipment, verbal communication and speech valve. The analysis of the characterization of the communication in palliative care over the past 15 years allowed concluding that the attention to communication is recent and is only described in a few reports, includes non-verbal communication in different ways as the most frequent resource, but provides oral communication as an important factor for maintaining dignity and comfort in this scenario. Speech and language therapist are the main interlocutors for the maintenance, mediation and adaptation of communication, within the multidisciplinary team as well as among patients, their family and the care team.

Abstract BackgroundLiving with life-limiting illness significantly impacts quality of life. A growing body of evidence suggests that arts engagement, facilitated by artists, promotes a sense of well-being and connection with others. However, much of the evidence is drawn from the use of the arts in broad health contexts or from creative arts therapies’ literature. This review aimed to systematically identify and synthesize existing evidence in order to reveal key knowledge gaps and to inform future research and practice. MethodsAn integrative review of the literature was conducted using a pre-defined, comprehensive search strategy. Databases searched included: PubMed inclusive of MEDLINE, CINAHL, PsycINFO, Scopus, Web of Science, and Embase. Search terms included variations on visual arts, literary arts, and performing arts; service users or patients; and palliative care or end-of-life care. The quality and rigor of articles were scored using Hawker and colleagues’ tool designed to systematically appraise disparate studies. Synthesis was conducted using a constant comparison method as outlined in the integrative review framework.ResultsEight reviewed studies explored literary, performing, and visual arts engagement in residential hospice, day hospice, and hospitals in England, the United States, France, and Canada. Seven of eight studies used qualitative methods and one study engaged in mixed methods. Patient perspectives were most commonly represented followed by health care professionals and family members. Creative writing, music, and visual art were predominant modalities whilst dance and theatre were underrepresented. Themes identified across studies associated arts engagement with 1) a sense of well-being, 2) a newly discovered, or re-framed, sense of self, 3) connection with others, 4) challenges associated with practice. ConclusionThis review synthesized current evidence and key knowledge gaps regarding artists' facilitation of arts engagement in palliative and end-of-life (EOL) care. It serves as a starting point in the consideration of next steps in standardizing professional practice and preparation for artists working in palliative and EOL care settings specifically. Recommendations for future research include exploring the value of collaboration between artists and palliative care teams when engaging with individuals living with life-limiting illness.

RESUMOObjetivo: identificar, na produção científica, como os cuidados paliativos são ofertados sob a percepção dos pacientes que necessitam dessa terapia. Método: trata-se de estudo bibliográfico, descritivo, tipo revisão integrativa, de estudos publicados entre 2006 e 2016, nas bases de dados MEDLINE, BDENF, IBECS e LILACS. Utilizaram-se descritores controlados contemplados no DeCS, e resultados apresentados em forma de tabelas e figuras, discutidos com a literatura. Resultados: identificaram-se 27 publicações, as quais compuseram a amostra final. Elaboraram-se duas categorias temáticas: A percepção dos pacientes quanto aos cuidados paliativos ofertados por equipes especializadas e pelas equipes não especializadas e, As diferenças dos cuidados paliativos segundo o ambiente: atenção domiciliar versus atenção hospitalar. Conclusão: evidencia-se que os cuidados paliativos ofertados, segundo a percepção dos pacientes, devem abranger a totalidade do sujeito. Identificou-se que as equipes especializadas conseguem atender melhor os pacientes em cuidados paliativos. Ressalta-se que este estudo irá contribuir para a carência de publicações na temática, levando em consideração a ascensão dos cuidados paliativos, sendo necessário compreender a percepção do paciente sobre a oferta desse cuidado.

Conclusion: it is evident that the palliative care offered, according to the patients' perception, should cover the totality of the subject. It was identified that specialized teams are able to better serve patients in palliative care.
