Abstract
ABSTRACT Objectives: to analyze the quality of child and adolescent care transitions from hospital to home, considering the presence of chronic disease. Methods: quantitative, cross-sectional study, carried out from February to September 2019 in two hospitals in the south of Brazil. We used an instrument to characterize participants and the Care Transitions Measure (CTM-15) for the legal tutors of children and adolescents that were discharged from the institutions. Results: the general mean of the quality of transition of care was 87.9 (SD=13.4), in a scale from 0 to100). We found a significant difference in the quality of transition of care when comparing patients with and without chronic disease (90.0 and 84.3; p=0.001). Conclusions: we found the quality of the transition of care to be satisfactory, with better results for patients with chronic disease. This can help understand the most impactful aspects in the transition of care, especially in regard to children health.
