SAMMANFATTNING Bakgrund Definitionen av missfall är ett spontant avslut av graviditeten utan att aktiva åtgärder vidtas. Ett missfall innebär att graviditeten avslutas innan vecka 22 och 80–85 procent av samtliga missfall inträffar i tidigt stadie. Varför en kvinna drabbas av missfall kan ha flera orsaker. Vid ett missfall står kvinnan inför fysiska såväl som psykiska utmaningar och vänder sig därför till akutsjukvården där ett personcentrerat bemötande är önskvärt. Syfte Syftet var att lyfta kvinnors upplevelser i mötet med sjuksköterskan inom akutsjukvården vid missfall. Metod Resultatet i litteraturöversikten baserades på 16 vetenskapliga artiklar där kvinnors upplevelse av akutsjukvården vid missfall presenterades. För att finna de vetenskapliga artiklarna hade författarna databaserna PubMed och CINAHL till hjälp. I litteraturöversikten beskrevs ett tydligt urval. En kvalitetsgranskning utfördes med stöd av Sophiahemmet Högskolas bedömningsunderlag för vetenskaplig klassificering. Data analyserades stegvis. Resultat Resultatet beskriver att kvinnor upplevde brister vid besöket med sjuksköterskan inom akutsjukvården. Kvinnorna kunde uppfatta kommunikationen och informationen som oärlig och otillräcklig samt brister i kontinuiteten som gjorde dem förvirrade. De påpekade brister i det emotionella stödet och respekten till deras integritet, vilket för kvinnorna inte främjade förlusthanteringen. I resultatet framhävs fyra kategorier som författarna genom analys lyfte som grundpelare i kvinnornas upplevelse av akutsjukvården. Dessa var information och kommunikation, emotionellt stöd, hotad integritet i den akuta miljön samt uppföljning och framtid. Slutsats Kvinnans upplevelse av akutsjukvården var ett resultat av olika faktorer. Att drabbas ett missfall kunde vara en traumatisk upplevelse. Denna litteraturöversikt visar att kvinnorna önskade ett empatiskt bemötande, tydlig information och att sjuksköterskan i omvårdnaden inom akutsjukvården behövde ett helhetsperspektiv. Vid ett missfall, en förlust, framträdde känslor som sjuksköterskan behöver ha kompetens, respekt och visa emotionellt stöd för. Detta för att kvinnorna skulle uppleva mindre lidande och förbättra deras upplevelse som i dagsläget innefattar betydande brister. Nyckelord: Akutsjukvård, empati, kommunikation, känslor, missfall / ABSTRACT Background Definition of miscarriage is a spontaneous termination of pregnancy without any action being taken. A miscarriage means that the pregnancy ends within week 22, 80–85 percent of all miscarriages occur at an early stage. Why a woman suffer from miscarriage can have several causes. In case of miscarriage, the women face physical and mental challenges and therefore seek care at emergency departments, were a person-centered care is useful. Aim Women’s experiences encountering nurses in the emergency care of miscarriage. Method This literature review was based on 16 scientific articles presenting women's experience with nurses of emergency care in case of miscarriage. To find the scientific articles, the authors used the databases PubMed and CINAHL. A clear selection was described. A quality examination was performed with the support of Sophiahemmet Högskola's assessment basis for scientific classification. Data were analyzed step by step. Results The result describes that women experienced deficiencies of various kinds during their visit with nurses at the emergency department. The women could perceive communication and information as dishonest and insufficient. They pointed out deficiencies in the emotional support and respect for their integrity, which for women did not promoted the management of the loss. The result highlights four categories that lifted as mainstays of women's experience of emergency care. These were information and communication, emotional support, threatened integrity in the emergency environment, and follow-up and future. Conclusions A miscarriage can be a traumatic experience. This literature review shows that women want empathic care, evident information, and a nurse with a holistic perspective. In case of miscarriage, women will show emotions that requires the nurse to have necessary skills, respect and be able to support emotionally. This was helpful for the women so that they shall suffer less and also improve their experience that have great flaws. Keywords: Abortion spontaneous, communication, emergency medical services, emotions, empathy

Introdução: A desesperança encontra-se amplamente associada com depressão maior e risco de suicídio. O suicídio, por sua vez, é um problema de saúde pública que está associado a uma diversidade de fatores e contextos econômicos, sociais e emocionais. No Brasil, a ocorrência de suicídio parece se relacionar diretamente com situações de perda, frustrações e sofrimento emocional, como a situação de abortamento na vida da mulher. Objetivos: este estudo tem como objetivos identificar desesperança em mulheres que viveram/provocaram abortamento; avaliar depressão maior; verificar a associação entre ocorrência de abortamento espontâneo ou provocado e depressão e desesperança. Método: este estudo foi composto por duas fases. Na primeira fase, foi verificado o prontuário de 162 mulheres que tiveram diagnóstico de abortamento e participaram do projeto anterior \"Culpa, ansiedade e depressão na vivência do abortamento provocado\", sendo que, destas 144 tinham vivido abortamento espontâneo e 18, abortamentos provocados. Nessa fase foram analisadas entrevista semidirigida; Primary Care Evaluation of Mental Disorders (PRIME-MD) e Escala de Desesperança de Beck (BHS). Após uma média de tempo de 95,75 meses da ocorrência do abortamento, foi realizado contato telefônico com as 162 mulheres, visando convidá-las a participar da segunda fase; 12 mulheres aceitaram retornar. Foram aplicados os seguintes instrumentos: entrevista semidirigida, o PRIME-MD e BHS. Foi realizada análise quantitativa e qualitativa dos dados, os quais foram analisados pela técnica de análise temática e posteriormente foi utilizado o programa IBM SPSS Statistics Standard Edition. O nível de significância utilizado foi p < 0,05. Também foi realizada analise qualitativa dos discursos das mulheres que compareceram na segunda fase deste estudo. Resultados: constatou-se que 14,6%(n=21) das mulheres que sofreram abortamento espontâneo apresentaram alto nível de desesperança (índice <= 9) e 30,6%(n=44) apresentaram diagnóstico de depressão maior. Desta forma, foi observada associação significativa entre alto nível de desesperança e diagnóstico depressivo em mulheres com abortamento espontâneo (p=0,03). Entre as mulheres que relataram abortamento provocado, contatou-se que 27,8% (n=5) apresentaram altos índices de desesperança e 55,6%(n=10) foram diagnosticadas com depressão maior. Ao associar as duas variáveis, não foi encontrada significância estatística (p=0,9). Os resultados da segunda fase revelaram que 2 mulheres encontravam- se com alta desesperança, sendo que uma referiu abortamento espontâneo e a outra, provocado, ambas também tinham diagnóstico de depressão maior. Conclusão: foi constatado alto nível de sofrimento emocional e de desesperança associado com a situação do abortamento independente de sua natureza, se espontânea ou provocada. Foi observada associação estatística significativa entre depressão e desesperança entre as mulheres que vivenciaram abortamento espontâneo. Nas avaliações da segunda fase, constatou-se que o sofrimento de algumas mulheres permanecia atual, independente do tempo decorrido ou do tipo do abortamento / Introduction: Hopelessness is widely associated with Major Depression and suicide risk. The suicide, on the other hand, is a public health problem that may be associated with economic, social and emotional factors. In Brazil, the ocurrence of suicide seems to be directly related to situations involving loss, frustrations and emotional distress, such as the abortion situation in woman\'s life. Objectives: This study aims to identify hopelessness in women who have received abortions or miscarriage diagnosis; to evaluate major depression; to verify the association between miscarriage, abortion; depression and hopelessness. Method: This study was composed of two phases. In the first phase, it was verified the medical records of 162 women who had a diagnosis of abortion and participated in the previous Project \"Guilt, anxiety and depression in the experience of induced abortion\". Of these, 144 had a miscarriage and 18 had a induced abortion. For this phase, a semidiriged interwiew; Primary Care Evaluation of Mental Disorders (PRIME-MD) and Beck`s Hopelessness Scale (BHS) was analyzed. In the second phase, after an average time of 95,75 months from the abortion, a telephone call was made to the 162 women in order to invite them to participate at this time; twelve women agreed to return to the second phase of this study. The following instruments were applied: semi-directed interwiew, PRIME-MS and BHS. Quantitative and qualitative analysis was performed. The data were analyzed by the thematic analysis technique and later using the IBM SPSS Statistics Standard Edition. The significance level was p < 0,05. A qualitative analysis of the discourses of the women who attended the second phase was also performed. Results: It was found that 14,6% (n=21) of the women who suffered miscarriage had a high level of hopelessness (índex <= 9) and 30,6% (n=44) presented a diagnosis of major depression. Statistical significance was observed between high level of hopelessness and depressive diagnosis in women with miscarriage (p=0,03). Among women reporting induced abortion, 27,8% (n=5) had high rates of hopelessness and 55,6% (n=10) were diagnosed with major depression. When the two variables were associated, no statistical significance was found (p=0,9). The results of the second phase revealed that 2 women presented a high level of hopelessness, 1 that reported miscarriage and 1 that reported induced abortion. Both had a diagnosis of Major Depression. Conclusion: It was observed a high level of emotional distress associated with the abortion experience regardless of its natures, whether spontaneous or induced. There were There were high rates of hopelessness among women who experienced abortion, whether spontaneous or induced; and a statistically significant association was found between depression and hopelessness among women who experienced spontaneous abortion. In the evaluations of the second phase it was found that the suffering of some women remained current, regardless of the time elapsed or the type of abortion

Bakgrund En normal graviditet hos en gravid kvinna (det biologiska könet) i fertil ålder fortlöper i genomsnitt i cirka 40 veckor. När en kvinnas graviditet avstannar utan medicinsk intervention innan graviditetsvecka 22 kategoriseras det som en spontan abort. Det finns ingen behandling som kan stoppa en hotande eller en pågående spontan abort vilket gör att sjuksköterskans bemötande blir desto mer viktig. Forskning har visat att stöd vid spontan abort kan hjälpa till att minska den negativa upplevelsen och att stöd även har en positiv inverkan på den mentala hälsan. Det ligger i allmänsjuksköterskans professionella ansvar att ge stöd och omvårdnad utifrån ett personcentrerat förhållningssätt. Syfte Syftet var att belysa kvinnors upplevelser av stöd och omvårdnad vid spontan abort. Metod Vald design var litteraturöversikt där databassökning genomfördes i databaserna PubMed, CINAHL och Google Scholar. Femton vetenskapliga artiklar valdes och granskades med Sophiahemmets Högskolas kvalitetsgranskningsprotokoll och genomgick en integrerad analys. Resultat Resultatet sammanställdes i fem huvudkategorier: ”Bemötandets betydelse för kvinnan”, ”Kommunikation”, ”Vårdmiljöns betydelse”, ”Aspekter av stöd” och ”Den fysiska vården”. Resultatet belyser vikten av bemötandets roll i utformandet av kvinnans upplevelse av stöd och omvårdnad i samband med spontan abort. Slutsats Att genomgå en spontan abort var för de flesta kvinnor en traumatisk händelse. Det framkom att sjuksköterskan inte fullföljde sitt professionella ansvar att främja hälsa, återställa hälsa och lindra lidande för de kvinnor som genomgick en spontan abort. För att kvinnor som genomgår en spontan abort ska få stöd och omvårdnad anpassad efter hennes behov bör sjuksköterskan arbeta utifrån ett personcentrerat förhållningssätt för att minska risken för vårdlidande. / Background A normal pregnancy for a woman (the biological sex) is on average 40 weeks. If a woman's pregnancy ends before pregnancy week 22 without medical intervention it is categorized as a spontaneous abortion. No treatment can stop a threatening or ongoing spontaneous abortion, which makes the nurse's response to the situation all the more important. Research has shown that support during a spontaneous abortion can help reduce the negative experiences for the woman and also have a positive impact on the woman’s mental health. It is in the general nurse's professional responsibility to provide support and care based on a person-centred approach. Aim The purpose is to highlight women's experiences of support and care during a spontaneous abortion. Method Chosen design was literature review where 15 scientific articles were selected. Database search was performed in databases PubMed, CINAHL and Google Scholar. Data analysis was carried out using an integrated analysis. Results The results were compiled into five main categories which highlighted the woman's experience of support and care during a spontaneous abortion. The main categories are "The importance of care for the woman", ”Communication”, "The impact of health facility environment", "Aspects of support" and ”Physical care”. Results highlights the importance of the caregiver in shaping the woman's experience of support and care in connection with spontaneous abortion. Conclusions For most women, a spontaneous abortion was a traumatic event to undergo. It emerged in the results that nurses did not always fulfil their professional responsibilities in promoting the woman’s health, restoring health and relieving the woman’s suffering who underwent a spontaneous abortion. In order for women to receive support and care tailored to their needs, the nurse should work applying a person-centered approach which can help reduce the risk of suffering and meet the unmet needs of the woman.
