Abstract
The medicine development demonstrates that the traditional bioethical medical care model is not the most adequate. On the other hand, the person-centered clinical method has been winning more space in the medical practice, since it is a humanized method of care that allows best results. In pediatrics, the patient-centered care works a little bit different, since it requires not only the physician-patient relation, but also the integration of the physician-family-patient relation. Thus, the patient-centered care in the pediatric area is understudied, as well as little practiced. In this context, this review has the objective to exposure the actual scenario of the patient-centered care in pediatrics. This is a scoping review carried out from the standards of Jonna Briggs Institute (JBI). The database PubMed, Science Direct and BVS were used to search studies between 2012 until 2024. The research was performed with the descriptors "Medicine", "Shared DecisionMaking", "Pediatrics", "Physician-PatientRelations" and "Patient-CenteredCare". The research identified 27,272 articles, along with 79 met the criteria and were included. Each article was analyzed and allocated in the four pillars of the patient-centered care, which was described and related with the pediatric clinic. The patient-centered care brings benefits to medical care, especially in the pediatric area. Among them, stands out the increased adherence to treatment, the lowest rates of medical errors, the greater integration of the interprofessional team, the more individual and patient-sensitive investigation, as well as the respect of beliefs and desires, making the results obtained better.
