The surgical outcome occurred in 42.3% of the cases, and 18.6% died, variables were also obtained regarding pregnancy, birth, and hospitalization, which could be related to the studied cases. <strong>Conclusion:</strong> The low supply of breast milk exclusively, in only 5.1% of the cases, is one of the results that may have had a more significant influence on the rate of Necrotizing Enterocolitis of this Unit, being this a variable cited in many studies as the main form of prevention of infection. Neonatology teams must reevaluate their care processes, mainly by promoting human milk supply exclusively to babies.</p> Giordana Morosini Presser Laura Leismann de Oliveira Loriane Rita Konkewicz Virgínia Leismann Moretto Copyright (c) 2025 Online Brazilian Journal of Nursing https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 2025-01-01 2025-01-01 24 Fluxo Contínuo e20256767 e20256767 10.17665/1676-4285.20256767 Clinical protocol of intra-hospital transport of critical care patients: action research https://www.objnursing.uff.br/index.php/nursing/article/view/6810 <p><strong>Objective:</strong> To describe the process of developing and validating an intra-hospital transport protocol for critically ill patients. <strong>Method:</strong> Action research with a qualitative approach, conducted in a public university hospital in Southeast Brazil, with thirty-nine members of the multidisciplinary healthcare team who formed the Planning Group. Data collection occurred over nine seminars, using a flexible and non-linear script. Data were analyzed through categorical content analysis and descriptive statistics. <strong>Results:</strong> An intra-hospital transport protocol for critically ill patients was developed, along with five flowcharts and a transport checklist. <strong>Conclusion:</strong> The process was carried out with active and collaborative participation. The protocol will standardize tasks and procedures, ensuring safer and higher-quality care.</p> Ana Paula Gomes da Cruz Eliane de Fátima Almeida Lima Verónica Rita Dias Coutinho Greyce Pollyne Santos Silva Minarini Karla Crozeta Figueiredo Cândida Caniçali Primo Copyright (c) 2025 Online Brazilian Journal of Nursing https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 2025-07-31 2025-07-31 24 Fluxo Contínuo e20256810 e20256810 10.17665/1676-4285.20256810
