Full textSyftet med föreliggande litteraturstudie var att sammanställa aktuell forskning och därmed beskriva patienters uppfattningar och upplevelser av vårdmiljön. Artikelsökningen genomfördes i databasen MedLine (via PubMed) och kompletterades med manuell sökning i valda källors litteraturlistor. Elva artiklar som motsvarade studiens syfte granskades och resultatet sammanställdes enligt Katie Erikssons syn på miljö. Under den andliga miljön sorterades kategorin naturen utanför. Under den psykosociala miljön sorterades kategorierna estetiken – avspeglar vården, välkomnande miljöer, vårdmiljöns betydelse för en bevarad integritet, hemlika miljöer samt sjuksköterskan – en del av vårdmiljön. Under den fysiska miljön sorterades kategorierna ljus, ljud och lukt, enkel- och flerbäddssalar samt aktiviteter. Resultatet visade att närheten till naturen ansågs främja vården, vilket även god estetik samt välkomnande miljöer gjorde. Vårdmiljön visade sig ha möjligheter att främja känslan av en bevarad integritet, framförallt gällande vistelse i enkel- eller flerbäddssalar. En hemlik miljö där patienter kunde känna igen sig, påvisades inge trygghet och personlig kontroll. Sjuksköterskan ansågs ha stor möjlighet att påverka huruvida vårdmiljön uppfattades som positiv eller negativ. Resultatet visade att omvårdnadsteoretikernas tankar kring miljöbegreppet från 1800 och 1900 - talet fortfarande är aktuella. Då det ständigt sker en förändring i samhället och missnöje framkommer angående vårdmiljön är fortsatt forskning inom området nödvändigt.
The aim of the literature review was to compile current research and thus describe patients’ perceptions and experiences of the care environment. Browse were conducted through the database MedLine (PubMed) and supplemented with manual search in the reference lists. Eleven articles representing the study purpose was reviewed and the results were compiled according to Katie Eriksson’s approach of the environment. In the spiritual environment the category nature was included. In the psychosocial environment the categories aesthetics - reflecting care, welcoming environments, the care environments’ importance for preserved integrity, home-like environments, and the nurse - a part of the care environment was included. Under the physical environment the categories lighting, sound and smell, single-and multi-bed rooms and activities were included. The result showed that being close to nature was considered facilitate the care, which also good aesthetics and welcoming environments did. The care environment was shown to have opportunities to promote a feeling of preserved integrity, especially stays in single or multi-bed rooms. A home-like environment, where patients could recognize themselves, was considered secure. The nurse was reported to influence the care environment in both a positive and a negative direction. Finally, the result shows that the nursing theorist’s views of the environment from 1800 - 1900s, still are in question. However, the society is constantly changing and dissatisfaction about the care environment have been reported, further research is necessary.

Full textMental health problems and addiction problems are the two main risk factors for suicide in our society. The experiences psychotherapists have made in assessing the risk of patients committing suicide are important to further research in order to decrease the suicide numbers. The purpose of this study was to look into the experiences psychotherapists have made in assessing the risk of suicide in patients. The questions focused on the experiences of assessing the risk of suicide and which factors that might have had an influence on these experiences. Data was collected by interview with six psychotherapists. The study had an inductive qualitative approach and thematic analysis was used as method for analysis of data. Results show that the conversation and establishing of an alliance with the patient is decisive for the assessment. Feelings of meaninglessness and emptiness in the patient are seen as the main risk factors along with addiction. The sometimes indistinct borderline between psychotherapy and psychiatry may affect the therapeutic framework. Family and relatives are described as an unutilized resource. The risk of making a false assessment can at times create worries in the therapists and doubts about their own ability. Supervision and exchanging experiences with colleagues are mentioned as the main support in the work. Discussion: The results show that the therapists sees assessment of suicidal risk in the patient as an important part of the work. It is possible to assess the suicidality in the patient. It is impossible to predict an actual suicide. Further research is required to increase knowledge in the subject.

Full textBackground: When a person suffers from cancer their entire world changes. A lack of knowledge creates a feeling of not being able to adequately grasp the situation, which is why it is important that the nurse provides decent caregiving with emphasis on entirety and communication. Purpose: The purpose of the literature study was to describe patients' experiences of the nurse's approach in relation to cancer treatment at hospital. Method: A literature review that is based on ten qualitative articles. Result: Through analysis, three main categories were found: The importance of wide knowledge by the nurse, The importance of a good nursing relationship and The importance of good caretaking that benefits the patient's well-being and their will to participate. Method of discussion: The reason, as to why there were not many articles found on the subject matter, is due to the fact that there is more research conducted from the nurse's perspective. The preunderstanding was confirmed and the authors get more insight in how important two-way communication is. Discussion of result: The patient wishes to feel involvement from the nurse and a good relationship between the two arises when good communication exists

Full textAim: To investigate what cancer patients write in blogs about their experiences of their situation and blogging. Method: Descriptive qualitative study of ten blogs. Strategic and maximally varied sample with respect to gender, age, diagnosis and curability. A blog search was carried out in Google. Data collection was performed with a specially developed question guide. The data were analysed using qualitative content analysis according to Granheim and Lundman (2004). Results: Blog authors describe their experiences of their situation based on their feelings, their attitudes towards the disease and life, the impact of the disease and their relationship with other people. They describe the blogging in relation to themselves, perceiving it as a form of therapy or coping strategy, and in relation to their readers, seeing the blog as a way of support or helping others. Conclusions: As cancer patients write openly about their experiences in blogs, a cancer blog is a suitable tool to increase understanding of the situation of cancer patients. A blog can serve as a therapy and coping strategy for cancer patients. It can also provide psychosocial support, both in terms of feedback from readers and by enabling the author to become part of a social network.

Full textAnorexia Nervosa är en komplex sjukdom som kräver en individualiserad vård. Då patienter med anorexi ofta kännetecknas av att vara ambivalenta angående att tillfriskna, behövs ett gott samarbete och en god relation med sjuksköterskorna. Syftet med studien är att undersöka vad god omvårdnad innebär för patienten och sjuksköterskan vid vård och behandling av Anorexia Nervosa. Arbetet är utformat till en litteraturstudie grundad på tio vetenskapliga artiklar. I resultatet, som är tvådelat, framkommer sju teman vilka är självständighet, socialt stöd, isolering, en utmaning, relationen, omtanke och respekt samt tillit. I resultatet framkom det att patienter prioriterade ett gott stöd från sjuksköterskorna genom att finnas tillhands, visa omtänksamhet samt vara icke-dömande. Sjuksköterskorna ansåg att vägen till god omvårdnad var; empati, tillit, acceptans samt ömsesidig respekt. Slutsatsen blev att en god relation mellan patienten och sjuksköterskan var av stor betydelse för att nå framgång i behandlingen av Anorexia Nervosa. Förhoppningen med denna studie är att sjuksköterskor ska kunna få en inblick och ta lärdom av det presenterade materialet, för att på så sätt förbättra omvårdnaden av flickor med diagnosen Anorexia Nervosa.
Anorexia Nervosa is a complex disease that requires an individual treatment. Patients with Anorexia are known to be ambivalent when it comes to making a recovery and therefore need strong teamwork and a good relationship with the nurse. The aim of this study is to examine what good care means for the patient and the nurse when it comes to treating Anorexia Nervosa. The essay is a literature review based on ten scientific articles. In the result, which is divided in two parts, seven themes arise and these are: independence, social support, isolation, a challenge, the relationship, caring and respect and trust. In the result it was revealed that the patients prioritize support from the nurses, showing that they care and don’t judge the patients. The nurses describe compassion, trust, acceptance and mutual respect as important parts in the given care. The conclusion is that a good relationship between the nurse and patient means a great deal to achieve success when treating Anorexia Nervosa. Hopefully this study gives nurses an ability to learn from the presented material, and be able to improve the care of girls suffering from Anorexia Nervosa.

Full textBackground: Self-injurious behavior is a public health issue that is difficult to detect. People who self-harm often evoke strong feelings among the nursing staff. Nurses who care for these individuals are often confronted with emotional reactions that will affect the patient's wellbeing if not addressed. In order to improve the wellbeing and alleviate the suffering of patients who self-harm it is therefore important that nurses meet these patients professionally. Aim: The purpose of this study was to describe nurses' experiences and attitudes towards selfharmingpatients. Method: This is a literature study based on four quantitative studies, five qualitative and one mixed study published between 2000 -2014. Results: The results were presented in five themes: attitudes and perceptions, emotions, the importance of the caringrelationship, the need for training and guidelines and the importance of support from colleagues and management. Conclusion: The result showed that nurses who care for patients with self-injurious behavior are experiencing difficulties and uncertainties inmanaging this patient group, which often led to frustration and avoidance of these patients. It was clear that there is a need for training in self-injury, need in supervision and support fornurses to be able to provide adequate care. Clinical significance: Description of the nurses'experience of working with self-harming patients may contribute to increased knowledge andawareness of factors affecting caring. This will help nurses to provide better and professionalcare to this patient group.

Full textA common procedure in surgery is local or regional anesthesia in contrast to general anesthesia. These forms of anesthesia demand a lot from the patient in terms of collaboration. During the surgical procedure, the perioperative nursing care needs to be adapted to each patient’s individual needs. Therefore, this study is a literature review with the aim to describe patients’ experiences during awake surgery. The results were categorised from three themes, experiences of pain and discomfort, experiences of anxiety and fear, experiences of vulnerability or participation. Patients undergoing awake surgery experience pain, discomfort, anxiety and fear of hearing, seeing and feeling anything during the surgical procedure. The feeling of not having control of your own body results in experiences of feeling vulnerable. To be close to the patient and have a good communication between the nurse anesthetist and the patient create experiences of participation. The role of the nurse anesthetist is to find nursing interventions which relieve and help the patient in these situations. The results are discussed according to the Comfort Theory’s context; physical, psychospiritual, sociocultural and environmental. The skills for the nurse anesthetist are to find nursing interventions which relief and ease the situation for the patient. Furthermore, there is a need to investigate effects of different nursing interventions on patients’ satisfaction and comfort in the perioperative setting.

Nursing Programme, Malmö University: Health and Society: Department of Nursing, 2009.Blood sample taking and injections is a part of the nurses´ work. Many patients feel discomfort, especially patients with needle phobia, while taking blood samples. This is the reason why nurses have to pay attention to this group of patients.The aim of the study was to describe how patients experience healthcare related situations where injections are given or vein or capillary samples are taken.Method: We have used the descriptive phenomenological scientific method described by Giorgi. Collection of data was done by the use of in-deep interviews with three informants that have described themselves as needle phobic. Results: An important aspect of the phenomenon needle phobia deals with the significance treating patients with respect and that the nurse understands their situation. The nurse should be perceptive and adapt the care to every patient’s needs.Keywords: Anxiety, the descriptive phenomenological scientific method discomfort, needle fear, pain, perceptiveness, treatment.

Full textBackground: In nursing communication and handover are ongoing. There are different types of handovers and bedside handover is one of them. This form of handover occurs at the patient´s bedside and in the presence of the patient. This can lead care to be person-centered. Both the patient and the nurse have the opportunity to ask questions directly and the nurse can get a picture of the patient's wellbeing and care. The patient is given a chance to participate, as well as taking part in the information exchanged during the handover. Nurses and patients experience bedside handover in different ways and have different knowledge of this form of handover. Aim: To compile scientific literature on nurses’ and patients’ experiences of bedside handover. Method: A literature study where 10 qualitative scientific articles formed the result of the study. Data was collected through the databases CINAHL and PubMed. Result: Four main themes and nine subthemes were identified. Nursing skills with the subthemes Professional approach and Patient safety. Person-centered care with the subthemes Feeling in Control, Patient participation and Partnership. Confidentiality with the subthemes Integrity and privacy and Strategies. Language with the subthemes Hospital jargon and Language barriers. Conclusion: Patients and nurses experienced both advantages and disadvantages with bedside handover. The care became safe for patients and they came to be involved, but at the same time the handover was considered to be time consuming and the confidentiality could be compromised. The language used by nurses was found difficult to understand by some patients while others thought it showed the expertise of nurses.

Full textBackground: Handover occurs at every shift change within the hospital. Traditionally this happens between nurses, in the absence of patient. The information transfer is the process involved in the patient’s care where the most errors may occur. Aim: To describe the patient’s and nurse’s experiences of bedside handover, including patient’s participations and security.Method: Ten relevant empirical articles were included in this literature study with the use of the database PubMed. The theoretical framework for this study was Joyce Travelbees nursing theory. Result: Four categories were identified which explains patients’ and nurses’ experiences of bedside handover and were presented under in the subheadings; integrity, safety, participation and communication. The result shows that the majority of patients and nurses experienced bedside handover as something positive and that it promoted the patient’s participation and security. Conclusion: Bedside handover is a method where the patients’ participations contributed to a better communication with the nurses. Patients’ integrity were considered important but the nurses experienced that it was difficult to handle and to protect. Patients appreciated the interactions with the nurses and that the method could be useful in the health-care to include the patients.

Full textBackground. Around the world there’re approximately 383 millions living with diabetes. The work to change diet- and exercise habits is a challenge for most people. It isn’t always easy to adapt the new routines in the everyday life, such as eating regularly and eat less of the food that is unhealthy. Therefore it’s important that the nurse and the patient work together towards a healthier life. Aim. The aim was to illustrate how patients with type II diabetes experience changes in diet and exercise. Method. This literature study is based on 10 qualitative articles. Goodman’s seven steps have been used as an inspiration. The literature search was performed in the databases CINAHL, psycINFO and PubMed. The content analysis in this study was performed by inspiration from Graneheim and Lundman’s content analysis. Results. The data analysis resulted in three themes: Patient’s experience on diet restriction, patient’s experience on exercise changes and patient’s experience on support for change.Conclusion. The patient’s confidence in the people around them, and for the health care is important when you’re living with type II diabetes. Information about support groups, exercise groups and other activities that can be helpful towards a healthier everyday life is important.

Full textBackground: Patients are spending more time at the emergency department in 2018 compared to the previous year. They are often left alone for many hours while waiting for treatment or care. A lack of communication and information between healthcare professionals and patients might affect the patient's experience of the stay at the emergency department. The aim of the study was to describe patients’ experience of communication and information during a visit at the emergency department. The method used was a general literature review of both quantitative and qualitative articles. Sixteen articles were included. A content analysis was performed, including identifying meaning units, coding and synthesizing the content into categories. Results: Three main categories emerged: Experience of the organization, experience of the care environment and experience of the care relationship. Patients were in need of clearer information about the expected course of events and management. Also lack of communication such as updating of waiting times, examinations and test results were identified. The patients wanted more frequently interactions with the healthcare staff and could endure the waiting times if only they were given information about the delays. Conclusion: Patients might feel abandoned and forgotten at the emergency department. To use a person-centered care at an emergency department is a challenge, even if the need exists. An improved communication between nursing staff and patients might affect the patient's experience of emergency care in an already vulnerable situation.

Full textBackground: MRSA metcillinresistenta staphyloococcus aureus is increasing both in Sweden and worldwide and contributes to longer time in the hospital, expensive treatments and suffering for the affected patients and their relatives. Aim: The aim of the study is to examine how patients with MRSA experience their life situation. Method: Literature study based on ten qualitative articles. Result: The results are presented in three themes, the "Caring", "Experience of Social Change" and "Being infected with MRSA" and related subthemes. Patients describe that inadequate or lack of information regarding MRSA, its symptoms and effects were a problem. They also describe the fear of infecting family and friends. Several of the patients with MRSA feel unclean and dirty, as they had leprosy or the plague, and they feel shame and guilt about being diagnosed with MRSA. Discussion: A major problem was the discrepancy in health professionals' knowledge of MRSA and their management of patients who were infected with MRSA. Several patients were treated unprofessionally and were given an inaccurate and inadequate information about their illness which contributed to anxiety and suffering. If patients do not receive information or receive incorrect information in the event of an illness, this can have major consequences for the patients´ life situation.

Full textBakgrund: Sexuella trakasserier från patienter är vanligt inom sjukhusvärlden. Detta kan påverka omvårdnadsarbetet negativt eftersom en bra relation mellan sjuksköterska och patient grundas på en ömsesidig förståelse och respekt. Sexuella trakasserier definieras och beskrivs olika, men upplevelsen ägs av individen som drabbas. En ojämn maktfördelning och synen på den kvinnliga sjuksköterskan som sexsymbol, tros vara bakomliggande orsaker.
Syfte: Syftet med studien var att belysa sjuksköterskors upplevelser av och reaktioner på sexuella trakasserier från patienterna.
Metod: En systematisk litteraturstudie användes som metod. Sökningar utfördes i databaserna Cinahl, Pubmed och PsycINFO och i sökmotorn ELIN@Kalmar. Sju funna artiklar valdes ut, kvalitetsgranskades och analyserades.
Resultat: Fyra huvudteman identifierades. Resultaten visade att sjuksköterskorna upplevde patienternas trakasserier som skrämmande. De kände sig kränkta, ledsna och besvikna. Deras professionella roll gick förlorad och deras känsla av ensamhet och förlust av kontroll medförde ett stort behov av stöd. Sjuksköterskornas reaktioner blev passiva eller aktiva. Skillnaden mellan reaktionerna visade sig i sjuksköterskornas beteende mot och bemötande av patienterna som trakasserade dem.
Slutsats: Sexuella trakasserier medför fysiska och psykiska påfrestningar för de utsatta sjuksköterskorna. Mer forskning på området kan ge en bättre bild av hur sjuksköterskornas arbetssituation påverkas. En kartläggning över hur patientsäkerheten och vårdkvaliteten påverkas behövs.

Full textBakgrund: När en människa är drabbad av en livshotande sjukdom, t.ex. cancer, amyotrof lateral skleros (ALS) eller hjärtsjukdom, som är i ett palliativt skede innebär det för de flesta människor en existentiell erfarenhet. Både den sjuka människan och dennes närstående tvingas att fundera på bl.a. sin relation till döden och vad som är meningen med livet.
Syfte: Syftet med litteraturstudien var att beskriva patienters existentiella upplevelser inom palliativ vård och vad som kan utlösa dessa.
Metod: Forskningsmetoden som användes var en allmän litteraturstudie. En systematisk elektronisk sökning genomfördes i databaserna Cinahl, Medline och Pubmed. Sökorden som användes var palliative care, existential, spiritual och nursing i olika kombinationer. Artiklarna har granskats och värderats enligt Forsbergs och Wengströms checklistor för kvalitativa och kvantitativa artiklar.
Resultat: Alla studier som ingår i litteraturstudiens resultat visade att existentiella upplevelser utlösta av olika faktorer var vanligt förekommande hos patienter inom palliativ vård. Existentiell ensamhet orsakades av bl.a. bristande kommunikation med närstående, ökat beroende, förlust av kontroll och bristande bemötande från vårdpersonal. Upplevelsen av skuld utlöstes av tidigare levnadssätt som kunde vara orsaken till sjukdomen och för att religiösa normer inte hade följts. Hjälplöshet upplevdes vid förlusten av förmågan att klara av vardagliga situationer. Brister i kommunikation och bemötande från vårdpersonal medförde upplevelsen av bristande autonomi och självbild liksom maktlöshet. Konflikter i familjen, rollförändringar och tankar på familjens framtid utlöste upplevelsen av oro och otrygghet. När sjukdomen försämrades var det svårt att bevara hoppet liksom att finna meningen med livet.
Konklusion: Det existentiella välbefinnande hos patienter inom palliativ vård kan förbättras om sjuksköterskor har en ökad kunskap om de existentiella upplevelserna och utlösande faktorer som redovisas i litteraturstudiens resultat.

Full textBackground: Nurses are responsible for the nursing care of patients and are expected to act adequately in both everyday and complex situations. To cope with these situations, the nurses have different tools that they can use when checking patients’ vital signs and when communicating with other nurses. Studies show that nurses feel that it is important with good communication and cooperation when patients are being transferred from intensive care to hospital wards. Aim: The aim was to describe nurses' experiences of the takeover and care of patients from an intensive care unit and also to investigate if the nurses felt that something could be improved. Method: The study was conducted as a qualitative interview study with a descriptive design. The interviews consisted of semi-structured questions and the data was analyzed using qualitative content analysis. Results: The participants experienced differences in the takeover and care of the patients and these differences were affected by the participants’ experience. A sense of insecurity, particularly among the less experienced participants, often occurred before the takeover. The participants did not experience that the care of these patients was particularly problematic but unfamiliar or difficult moments sometimes appeared. In these moments the participants were more alert and they also observed these patients more frequently. More explicit guidelines for the care, accurate prescriptions and further training were highlighted as suggestions for improvement. Conclusion: The participants of the study had varying experiences of taking over and caring for the patients from ICU. The former ICU patients were often experienced as more complex. They also demanded more care, which required more knowledge and focus from the nurses in their daily work. The takeover and the care was often good but could have been further improved with more accurate prescriptions and guidelines.

Full textPatienter kan få behov av palliativ vård när de drabbats av en obotlig sjukdom. Detta påverkar både patienten och dess närstående. Denna studies syfte är att belysa patienters och närståendes upplevelser av nutrition inom palliativ vård. Resultatet i denna studie bygger på vårdvetenskapliga artiklar och visar att patienter och närstående upplever en önskan om att förlänga livet. Patienter och närstående ser mat som en symbol för deras hälsa och ett sätt att hålla kvar vid livet, de upplevde också en maktlöshet och förnekelse kring sjukdom och den oundvikliga döden. De upplever en förlorad gemenskap och en annorlunda inställning till mat vilket resulterade i en förändrad vardag. Mat beskrivs som omtanke, det framkommer att patienter inte äter för sin egen skull utan för att behaga närstående och för närstående är mat ett sätt att visa sin kärlek. Resultatet visar att det kan uppstå konflikt mellan närståendes oro och patienters självbestämmande. I sjuksköterskans roll är det viktigt att förstå och respektera deras tankar och känslor för att kunna lindra lidandet.

Full textBackground: Cancer can occur in different areas of the human body. Cancer care consists of two different phases. The curative phase when the goal is to cure the patient and the palliative phase when cure is no longer possible and the goal changes to comfort care. Patients with cancer can live for several years in the early stages of palliative care when the goal is to prolong the patient’s life and slow down the progression of the disease. When prolonging life is no longer possible the late palliative phase sets in and the goal of care is to make the patient comfortable and to manage symptoms of the disease. It is in between these phases the discussion called breaking point takes place. Nurses have a meaningful role in the process around breaking point. Purpose: The purpose of this study is to explore and compile nurses’ experiences of discussion around breaking point with patients with cancer. Method: A systematic literature review. Ten articles with qualitative approach were graded and compiled through content analysis. Result: The results was identified into three main themes; Nurses experience of cooperation between physicians and patients, relationship within breaking point and the nurses experience of hope. Nurses experienced that cooperation with doctors and evident communication with patients was important. The relationship with patients and relatives was an element that was present during breaking point conversation according to nurses. Hope was an emotion that was identified among nurses during breaking point conversations. Conclusion: Nurses can in relation to the discussion around breaking point get stuck in the middle between patients and the physicians which has both advantages and disadvantages. Nurses can through their work with the patient establish a relationship that involves confidence between the patient and the nurse. This relationship can benefit everyone involved in the breaking point discussion. Nurses are concerned about depriving their patients of hope when talking about their worsening prognosis.

Bakgrund: I Sverige insjuknar årligen cirka 30 000 människor i stroke. Medelåldern för män är cirka 74 år och för kvinnor cirka 78 år. Ätsvårigheter är vanligt efter stroke och det har visat sig att incidensen ökar med stigande ålder. Nära hälften av alla som drabbas kan besväras av: ätsvårigheter, tuggsvårigheter, ansamling av mat i kind, läckage av mat från munhålan, svårigheter med att förstå att maten skall tuggas och sväljas ner. Syfte: Belysa och sammanställa forskning som beskriver patienters upplevelser av ätsvårigheter efter insjuknande i stroke. Metod: En litteraturöversikt har genomförts för att besvara studiens syfte, där sammanlagt sex vetenskapliga artiklar inom området har analyserats. Resultat: Fem teman framkom vid analysen och dessa var: känslor och upplevelser under ätandet, hantering av mat, sociala relationer, förlust av ätfunktioner och att vara beroende. Denna kunskap kan öka sjuksköterskans förståelse för hur patienter upplever sin matsituation och därmed finna individanpassade lösningar i det kliniska arbetet.

Full textNilsson, M & Santis, L. Caring for palliative patients: the nurse’s experiences. Degree project in nursing 15 Credits. Malmö University: Faculty of Health and Society, Department of Care Science, 2017.Background: The palliative care philosophy has today expanded to include all patients who are dying, independent of diagnosis and disease, and is manifested in many different care institutions. The nurse’s role in palliative care is based on the four palliative cornerstones: symptom relief, teamwork, communication and relationship, and family support. The nurse's perception of non-curative nursing can be different depending on education, experience, and approach to life and death.Purpose: The aim was to compile nurses' experiences of caring for palliative patients.Method: Literature was searched in the databases Pubmed and Cinahl which yielded 10 qualitative studies. The studies were quality-reviewed using a customized review template.Results: The data analysis resulted in three categories with seven subcategories: "Experiencing the work strengthening and enriching", "Experiencing difficulties and stress in the palliative work" and "Experiencing professional development through experience and education".Conclusion: Despite experiencing difficulties and stress in the palliative work, it was also enriching and strengthening. Challenging areas included mental and emotionally stressful tasks that could be caused by staff shortages or disagreements between physicians and nurses. Work satisfaction was experienced when the nurse felt grateful and pleased with the care provided. It was essential that the nurse received education and knowledge in the form of theory and practical experience in order to enable adequate palliative care embodying the four palliative cornerstones.Key words: Difficulties, education, enriching, knowledge, nurse’s experience, palliative care.

Full textAbstract Background: In 1961, the doctor Boris Levinson discovered that animals could help people connect with others. The discovery came to inspire therapists to use animals within the therapeutic programs. However, the idea of involving animals extends back to the 19th century and was advocated by Florence Nightingale. However, a great deal of research is lacking in the field of animal therapy, which highlights patients' and caregivers' experiences. Aim: The aim of this study was to describe patients and caregivers experiences of animal-assisted therapy in the context of healthcare settings. Methods: A descriptive literature study whose results were based on 13 scientific articles. The majority were qualitative articles (11), while two others were of quantitative or mixed approach. Main results: Animal-assisted therapy was found to provide experiences of reduced depression in patients and an improved well-being for both parties. The social interaction between caregivers and patients seemed to be facilitated by animal presence. Caregivers experienced both increased and reduced stress and worried that the animal could interfere with the patients care. Conclusion: Patients and caregivers had positive experiences of animal therapy. The common good was improved well-being and improved social interaction. The result could mean that the method can be used in several different areas of health care. Challenges and negative experiences have highlighted the need for a well-functioning collaboration on healthcare services. The expectation then becomes that the challenges can be remedied, and that the method can be used in a larger issue.

Studies have shown that patients receiving mechanical ventilation in an intensive care unit (ICU), who are entirely dependent on the nursing staff, often experience frustration due to a temporary loss of the voice source. Limited communication is an important factor contributing to patient discomfort. Nursing staff also report communication as frustrating and difficult.
The aim of the present study is to introduce a neck-type electrolarynx as a communication aid in an ICU, to study the nursing staff experiences of communication with tracheotomized patients receiving mechanical ventilation, and to examine the patient´s experiences regarding communicative abilities. Communication between a ventilator treated, tracheotomized patient and members of the nursing staff was recorded and analyzed according to principles of Conversation Analysis (CA).
The results show that several members of the nursing staff experience difficulties communicating with tracheotomized patients receiving mechanical ventilation. A majority believe that the conditions for communication could be improved. The results of CA also indicate that an electrolarynx may be an effective and appropriate communication aid for ventilator treated, tracheostomized patients. Further research is needed to broaden the knowledge of the electrolarynx as a communication aid for these patients.
Keywords: communication, mechanical ventilation, electrolarynx, patient experience, nursing staff experience, Conversation Analysis (CA).

Full textThe purpose of this study is to investigate the nursing staff’s experiences of violent patients and situations, and to look into the effects that these situations can have on a nursing situation for a violent patient. Also to look into what supporting measures the place of work can offer a member of the staff who has experienced a violent situation, and whether Antonovsky’s concept, the sense of consistency is present among the nursing staff at a care centre chosen at random. The method this study is based on has a qualitative aim with a phenomenologic approach in the background. Data were collected through interviews with one physician, three nurses and one assistant nurse. The result showed that the personnel rarely experience violent situations, but that situations did occur. The most commonly experienced feeling was that of discomfort in the situation. The reception of patients took an important part in trying to prevent and subdue violent situations. The place of work and the solidarity between colleagues were also of great importance in handling these kinds of violent situations.

Full textBackground: Self-injury in non-suicidal purposes are common, especially between the ages of 15-24. Creating ruptures in the skin can be a way to deal with unbearable emotions. Those seeking treatment for self-harm are sometimes met with negative attitudes from health professionals. Patients are legally entitled to good healthcare on equal terms, but in reality it is not always that way. Aim: The aim of this literature study is to highlight health professionals experiences of and attitudes to caring for patients with self-injurious behavior. Method: A literature study was conducted and nine scientific articles with qualitative approach was included. Articles were reviewed, analyzed and put together to form a result using Friberg's model for literature review and with inspiration from content analysis. Results: The results were compiled into 5 categories that where; carers attitudes to patients, carers emotional reactions, carers coping strategies, the complicated relationship and organizational factors of significance. Conclusion: Lack of knowledge about self-injury among nurses can lead to poorer patient treatment. Education about self-injury among nursing staff could reduce the patients' care suffering that they may be exposed to.

Full textBackground: Blood borne infections which in this literature review is defined as hepatitis B, hepatitis C and HIV/AIDS is present around the world and result in hepatic and immunological diseases. It's the nurse responsibility to work within the framework of ICN codes of ethics to ensure that high qualitative care is provided for the patients. Aim: The aim of this study was to research nurses experiences of caring for patients with blood borne infection. The issues that were formed included what feelings and thoughts that occur and how the encounter is affected. Method: The literature review is made with a qualitative approach and 10 scientific articles were selected to be processed with content analysis in the results section. Result: The themes that emerged was; Stigma, Fear, Trust & Partnership and Experience of knowledge and lack of knowledge. The result shows that stigmatization and prejudice is present in nurses care for infected patients, sometimes origins in fear of contamination or prejudice of stereotypes. It shows that longer experience with the patient group results in overall better care. More education is desired to reach development of partnerships built on trust and respect is essential to accomplish good care, which is the nurse responsibility. Conclusion: Nurses as well as other healthcare workers described their goal was to give equal care to everyone, yet an unaware discrimination of patients with blood borne infections occured. Lack of knowledge about transmission routes led to fear and stress among the staff members. Long patient relations and trust was important for good care. Demand of further education was present.

Full textTrots att det är 25 år sedan de första fallen av aids uppmärksammades kan HIV-smittade personer än idag mötas av negativa attityder och fördomar. Denna virussjukdom angriper kroppens immunförsvar och det finns fortfarande inget botemedel. Antalet HIV- och aidspatienter ökar med åren och allt fler inom sjukvården kommer i kontakt med dessa patienter. I mötet med HIV- och aidspatienter kommer vårdpersonalen att handskas med en mängd olika känslor. Syftet med denna litteraturstudie var att belysa vårdpersonalens bemötande av HIV-smittade patienter och patienternas upplevelse av vården. Litteratursökningen gav upphov till fjorton artiklar vilka låg till grund för denna litteraturstudie. Ur analysen uppstod tre teman; HIV-smittade patienters upplevelse av bemötandet från vårdpersonal, vårdpersonalens känslor inför HIV-smittade patienter samt vårdpersonalens attityder till HIV-smittade patienter. Resultatet visade att HIV-smittade patienter hade både negativa och positiva upplevelser av bemötandet från vårdpersonalen. Vårdpersonalen kände rädsla inför de HIV-smittade patienterna men även empati. Den mest framträdande attityden var homofobi. Hög kunskap och erfarenhet hos vårdpersonalen var kopplat till lägre grad av homofobisk attityd. Det finns fortfarande ett behov av utbildning om sjukdomen. Kunskap leder till bättre bemötande.

Full textThe aim of this study was to describe home care personnel and their experiences in palliative care. The design was qualitative and data were collected through interviews. Five home care personnel were interviewed, all women, whom have experience of palliative home care.
The material was then analysed with qualitative content analysis and eight main categories, derived from experiences of home care personnel, were identified: relationship, safety, quality of care, a better end-of-life, routine, information, knowledge and competence, and work environment. The result showed that all participants of this study identified themselves as family members of the patients whom they had cared for during a long period of time. Additionally, the participants were emotionally touched when the patient died.
The majority experienced that the patients do receive good care in their homes. The participants also think that the information from the responsible nurse was insufficient, which resulted in difficulties for the personnel giving the patients good care. The insufficient information was within several lines of profession. All participants of the study think they have a good knowledge of and competence in palliative care and that their knowledge increased with their working experience. However, the participants think that the education they receive about palliative care does not coincide with reality. More knowledge about palliative care was demanded by people with another religion. The conclusion from this study is that the communication between home care personnel and nurses should be improved and that home care personnel need more specific education in the area of palliative care.
Syftet med studien var att beskriva hemtjänstpersonalens upplevelser av att vårda patienter i livets slutskede. Designen var kvalitativ och data insamlades genom intervjuer. Totalt intervjuades fem kvinnor som arbetar inom hemtjänsten med erfarenhet av att vårda patienter i livets slut i hemmet. Materialet analyserades sedan med kvalitativ innehållsanalys och utifrån hemtjänstpersonalens upplevelser identifierades åtta huvudkategorier: relation, trygghet, vårdkvalitet, värdigt slut, rutin, information, kunskap och kompetens, samt arbetsmiljö. Resultatet visade att alla deltagare identifierade sig som en anhörig till de patienter som de har arbetat en lång tid hos och många kände ett känslomässigt engagemang i samband med patientens bortgång. Majoriteten upplevde att patienterna får en bra vård i hemmet. Informationen från ansvarig sjuksköterska ansågs bristfällig hos alla deltagare vilket resulterade i upplevelse av svårigheter att utföra god omvårdnad. Informationsbristen fanns i flera led. Samtliga deltagare upplevde sig ha goda kunskaper och kompetens i att vårda patienter i livets slutskede och att kunskapen ökade med arbetslivserfarenheten. Dock tyckte de att den utbildning de fått i vård i livet slutskede inte stämmer överens med verkligheten. Mer kunskaper efterfrågades om vård i livets slutskede av personer med annan religion. Slutsatsen med studien var att kommunikationen mellan hemtjänstpersonal och sjuksköterskor måste förbättras och mer specifik utbildning för att vårda i livets slut behövs för hemtjänstpersonalen.
