Abstract

Child hospitalization is one of the challenges faced by health services in Brazil, especially when it comes to maintaining the rights of the child and (re)signifying the disease. In this context, ludicity is an essential resource for the understanding and representation of children’s reality, as well as for the acquisition of biopsychosocial skills throughout their human development process, even when hospitalized. In this context, this study aimed to identify experiences with the manifestation of ludicity through the physical environment and ludotherapeutic practices in child hospitalization. Methodologically, this study is an integrative review of national and international literature available in the databases Scopus, Web of Science and SciELO, from which we selected 21 articles published between 2010 and 2020. The data were interpreted through thematic content analysis. The results showed positive evidence concerning the possibilities of ludicity related to the health and well-being of hospitalized children when properly inserted in environments and spaces designed with playful design and multidisciplinary team qualified to work with ludotherapy. We also noted evidence that guides the proper design, organization and functioning in the creation of a playful environment, as well as ludotherapeutic strategies, techniques and tools, and additional health safety measures aimed at the environment’s upkeep. We consider that it is necessary to rethink the organization and functioning of children’s environments, providing a multidisciplinary network with greater accessibility and inclusion with the entire hospital community to achieve a playful environment for the sick child.
