چکیده مقاله
Background: Active family involvement in the care of hospitalized children is increasingly recognized as a vital factor that improves clinical outcomes, emotional well being, and overall quality of life This partnership supports parents, reduces their stress, and creates a positive healing environment Objective: This systematic review examines how family participation impacts the physical health, psychological well being, and quality of life of hospitalized children Methods: We conducted a thorough search across major scientific databases including PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, Google Scholar, Cochrane Library, Embase, CINAHL, PsycINFO, and ProQuest from 2015 to 2025 Using keywords such as family centered care, family involvement, quality of life, hospitalized children, and pediatric nursing, we gathered relevant original research articles in English that examined the effects of family participation in care on children aged 0 to 18 years Non research articles and animal studies were excluded From an initial pool of approximately 1,200 articles, after removing duplicates and screening titles and abstracts, we reviewed 400 full text articles, 290 studies were included in the final analysis Data were extracted focusing on physical and psychological health outcomes, parental stress, family satisfaction, length of hospital stay, and quality of life, and analyzed descriptively Results: Findings consistently show that family involvement leads to faster recovery, shorter hospital stays, and improved well being in children Parents experienced reduced anxiety and greater caregiving confidence Strong communication between families and healthcare teams played a crucial role Barriers included some healthcare staff's reluctance and lack of institutional support, which can be addressed through education and policy changes Conclusion: Family involvement is an effective approach to enhance health outcomes and quality of life for hospitalized children Healthcare systems should widely adopt family centered care models to benefit both patients and their families
