The Onofre Lopes-HUOL University Hospital is a reference institution that, besides providing medical-hospital assistance services to a large population contingent, is configured as the main field of practice for teaching and academic research activities in the health area of the state of Rio Grande do Norte. The professionals who work in HUOL are frequently the object of several investigations, because it is of great importance the knowledge about their material, physical and psychological conditions for the promotion of a healthy work environment and the rendering of quality services. The present research aimed to analyze the contribution of research and knowledge production to the well being of health professionals within HUOL. For that, initially an Integrative Review was made, in order to systematize information about the studies developed in the scope of HUOL that have as focus such servers during the years 2014 to 2019 and, in the sequence, a descriptive research aiming at a greater understanding of how the registration and follow-up works, as well as the challenges in the applicability of the results. It was found that the Research Ethics Committee is configured as a central instance in the registration and monitoring of projects. It was also observed that the dissemination of the results of the studies is very restricted, with little visibility as to the applicability and importance of what is produced by those who develop studies using HUOL as a research locus. In face of this scenario, it is proposed the elaboration of a specific protocol that allows to relate the results obtained to concrete actions, thus promoting a greater applicability of the researches and the improvement of the health and welfare of HUOL workers.
