Abstract
Aim: To analyze how interventions of a multidisciplinary team promote the safe transportation of critically ill patients.
Method: A systematic mixed-methods review was developed using an integrated convergent approach according to the Joanna Briggs Institute. This study was conducted using MEDLINE, CINAHL, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials electronic databases, which generated 107 references. After removing duplicates and applying inclusion and exclusion criteria, 17 articles were evaluated for methodological quality, resulting in 15 articles as the final sample. Data extraction was performed using a tool in the form of a table and synthesized through thematic analysis.
Results: Thoughtful decision, planning, problem-solving action and action for improvement are interventions that the multiprofessional team promotes the safe transportation of critically ill patients.
Conclusion and implications for practice: The standardization of transport (institutional protocols, a checklist, and equipment adequacy), continuing education, and skills training in the capacitation of teams foster a culture of safety that prevents harm to the patient. Further research is suggested on the subjective dimension and with the family in transportation.

Resumo
Objetivo: Analisar como intervenções da equipe multiprofissional promovem a segurança no transporte de pacientes em estado crítico.
Método: Revisão sistemática de métodos mistos elaborada com as recomendações do Joanna Briggs Institute, seguindo uma abordagem integrada convergente. A pesquisa foi realizada nas bases de dados MEDLINE, CINAHL, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews e Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, resultando em 107 estudos. Após a remoção de estudos duplicados e a aplicação de critérios de inclusão e exclusão, 17 estudos foram avaliados quanto à sua qualidade metodológica, havendo 15 estudos na amostra final. A extração dos dados foi realizada por um instrumento em forma de tabela e sintetizada por meio de análise temática.
Resultados: A decisão ponderada, o planejamento, a atuação na resolução de problemas e a ação para a melhoria são intervenções que a equipe multiprofissional promove na segurança do transporte de pacientes em estado crítico.
Conclusão e implicações para a prática: A padronização do transporte (criação de protocolos institucionais, check-list e adequação de equipamentos), a educação permanente e o treinamento de competências na capacitação das equipes fomentam uma cultura de segurança que evita o dano ao paciente. Sugerem-se pesquisas sobre a dimensão subjetiva e a inclusão da família no transporte.
