Summary		Izvleček - V članku so na teoretični ravni obravnavana doživljanja staršev in kritično bolnih otrok v enotah intenzivne zdravstvene nege in terapije. V pregledu literature so spremIjani kritično bolni otroci in njihovi starši med bivanjem v enotah intenzivne zdravstvene nege in terapije, med spoznanjem, da bo otrok umrl in pri sami smrti. Avtorica je pregled literature opravila z namenom, da bi se izboljšala kakovost aktivnega spremljanja staršev kritično bolnih otrok in umrlih otrok v enotah intenzivne zdravstvene nege in terapije, ter z namenom, da bi podala predloge za uspešnejše delovanje v praksi in za izobraževanje osebja. Opisani so strahovi in neuspehi, s katerimi se soočajo starši ob spoznanju, da bo njihov otrok umrl, ter delo medicinskih sester in drugih zdravstvenih delavcev v enotah intenzivne zdravstvene nege in terapije. Uporabljena je teorija skrbi Jean Watson. V zaključku avtorica svetuje zdravstvenim delavcem, kako naj ravnajo ob dogodkih, kot je smrt otroka, in oblikuje predloge za kakovostno spremljanje staršev ob smrti otrok in pozneje v žalovanju.
