The expression “bad news” characterizes any and all messages notified to the patient or their family members that impact their future outlook in a negative sense. OBJECTIVES: Develop bad news communication strategies for children and adolescents with hemato-oncological disease and their families, together with professionals from the multidisciplinary team; Search for evidence in the literature about strategies for communicating bad news by professionals in the multidisciplinary team in pediatric hemato-oncology; Build strategies for communicating bad news together with professionals from the multidisciplinary team; Apply bad news communication strategies developed by professionals from the multidisciplinary team in pediatric hemato-oncology; Create a flowchart for communicating bad news between the team of pediatric hemato-oncology professionals and patients and family members.

Data collection was carried out through a focus group, in the months of June, July and August 2023, with the participation of 23 professionals from the multidisciplinary team.
