RESUMO

This dissertation presents an integrative review of the literature through the analysis of articles published in national journals with the purpose of evaluating the contributions of the research produced by the Brazilian nursing system regarding the leadership, motivation and quality of nursing assistance in a hospital context. It intends to emphasize the leadership, motivation and quality strategies that can be used by the nurse in order to accomplish team actions directed to the nursing assistance. An Integrative Review of Literature is composed by a summary of conclusions from studies previously conducted in order to draw inferences on a specific topic. The research was made using LILACS and BDENF databases and the Health Virtual Library - BVS, with indexed publications up to 2006. The following describers were used for the integration among the categories: Nursing; Nursing Assistance; Leadership; Motivation and Quality; and studies of descriptive nature, related to "nursing" and/or nursing assistancein a hospital context. The dissertation contains 31 studies. The collection of data was made by the use of an instrument produced by the researcher who tested it before application. The data had been grouped into three comprehensive categories (leadership, motivation and quality) and, in subcategories which were analyzed using the nursing assistance approach in a hospital context. The research identified three studies about leadership, three about motivation and one about quality which corresponds to 20% of the sample. According to the researchers, these studies were the only that indicated strategies with the necessary potential to improve the nursing assistance program. These strategies require action and dedication from the Nursing team in order to activate this potential and, therefore, promote the necessary changes to the nursing assistance program as well as to improve the quality of all activities performed by the nursing professional.
