Sjuksköterskors upplevelser av att vårda suicidnära individer : En litteraturstudie / Nurses´ experiences of caring for suicidal individuals : A study of literature

Anar, Esra January 2012 (has links)
Bakgrund: Ungefär en miljon människor mister sitt liv av suicid årligen i hela världen. Det finns psykosociala, kliniska och biologiska faktorer bakom suicidala handlingar. Huruvida suicid utvecklas belyses i en suicidal process. Vården efter ett misslyckat suicidförsök upplevs oftast obehagligt och känsloladdat för suicidnära individen. Målen med vården är bland annat att främja patientsäkerheten. För att individen skall känna tillit för vården och vårdgivaren bör en trygg och förtroendefull vårdrelation skapas. Syfte: Syftet var att beskriva sjuksköterskors upplevelser av att vårda suicidnära individer.   Metod: Författaren har arbetat fram en litteraturstudie i enlighet med Friberg (2006). Studien baseras på tio vetenskapliga artiklar ifrån databaserna CINAHL with full text, MEDLINE with full text och PubMed. Särskilda inklusions- och exklusionskriterier följdes. En innehållsanalys och kvalitetsgranskning gjordes på valda artiklar. Resultat: Resultaten från vetenskapliga artiklar sammanställdes i litteraturstudien i fem olika kategorier. Dessa kategorier lyder så här: Känna ansvar, Känsla av upptagenhet och tidsbrist, Känsla av bristande kompetens, Känsla av osäkerhet i kommunikationen med suicidnära individer och Förhållningsätt till suicidnära individer.  Diskussion: Författaren har dragit slutsatsen att sjuksköterskor upplever att det finns faktorer som hindrar möjligheten till god interaktion mellan de och suicidnära individer. Dessa faktorer indelas sammanfattningsvis som brist på olika resurser och kompetens inklusive kommunikation. Det framkallar i sin tur känslor av frustration i samband med att inte kunna vara till hjälp tillräckligt för dessa individer. / Background: About one million people lose their lives by suicide each year worldwide. There are psychosocial, clinical and biological factors in suicidal acts. Whether suicide developed illustrated in a suicidal process. Care after a failed suicide attempt is experienced mostly uncomfortable and emotional of suicide close to the individual. The goal of treatment is to promote patient safety. For individuals have to feel confidence in the care and caregiver should be a safe and trustful care relationship is created. Aim: The aim was to describe nurses' experiences of caring for suicidal individuals. Methods: The author has worked out a study of literature in accordance with Friberg (2006). The study is based on ten scientific articles from databases CINAHL with Full Text, MEDLINE with Full Text and PubMed. Specific inclusion- and exclusion criteria were followed. A content analysis and quality assessment was done on selected articles. Results: The results of scientific articles compiled in the study of literature in five different categories. These categories are as follows: Feeling of responsibility, Feeling of occupied and lack of time, Feeling of lack of competence, Feeling of insecurity in communication with suicidal individuals and Approach to suicidal individuals. Discussions: The author concludes that nurses feel that there are factors that prevent the possibility of good interaction between the suicide and suicidal individuals. These factors are divided summarized as deficient of resources and attainment including communication. It induces in turn feelings of frustration associated with not being able to be helpful enough for these individuals.

Bone Marrow Transplant Nurses' Attitudes about Caring for Patients Who are Near the End of Life: A Quality Improvement Project

Lauersdorf, Leslie 01 January 2011 (has links)
In oncology setting, there is a range of emotions felt by patients and nurses alike such as helplessness, anger, sadness and anxiety; and this is especially the case as patients near the end of life. The literature shows there is an interest in nurses' attitudes toward caring for patients who are near the end of life. This project examines the overall attitude of Bone Marrow Transplant (BMT) nurses' attitudes toward caring for patients who are near the end of life using the Frommelt Attitudes Toward Care of the Dying Scale (FATCOD) and a Demographic Data Sheet. This project investigated the demographic variables including age, gender, ethnicity, religion, Oncology Certified Nurses status, highest degree held, years of nursing experience, years of oncology experience, years of BMT experience, prior continuing education in end of life, and prior experience taking care of a terminally ill patient, to see if they contribute to these differences in attitudes. This was a descriptive project. The sample consisted of a total of 30 BMT nurses, which included 8 men, and 22 women who have worked on the BMT unit for over a year. The mean years of nursing experience was 13.9 (SD=10.10), mean years of oncology nursing experience was 8 (SD=5.80), and mean years of BMT experience was 7.2 (SD=.60). The results of this project indicate that there is a positive relationship between number of years of experience as a nurse and positive attitudes toward caring for patients who are near the end of life. Scores on the FATCOD had a possibility to range from 30-150, with higher scores indicating a more positive attitude toward care of the dying. The scores from this project ranged from 113-148 with a mean of 128.6, indicating an overall positive attitude toward caring for the dying. This project should spur further investigation into attitudes toward caring for patients who are near the end of life. Nurses strive to take the best possible care of their patients and having an understanding of their attitudes will help them recognize areas of strength and weakness. This project supports interventions that are already being done by End of Life (EOL) Committee on the BMT unit at the Moffitt Cancer Center. The EOL committee is helping to create positive attitudes about caring for patients who are near the end of life by both supportive and educational methods.

Souvislost odstraňování tělesného ochlupení, péče o tělo a sexuality / Relation between body hair removal, body care and sexuality

Köstingerová, Lenka January 2012 (has links)
Relation between body hair removal, body care and sexuality Although hair removal has been described as a "new norm" during the past decades, only a little is known about body hair removal patterns of women in the Czech Republic. The purpose of this study was to assess leg, underam an pubic hair removal behavior among women in the Czech Republic and to test the degree to which hair removal in various parts of the body is associated with body care as such, that is, to find out if it has become an integral part of women's daily body care practices or whether it is regarded as a rather specific one, unrelated to one's other body care habits. Furthermore, an association with sexual experience has been tested, along with attitudes towards sex and one's genitals, which have been shown to be a significant intervening factor by some authors. Last but not least, the importance of various reasons mostly given for hair removal has been assessed as well. First, a total of 15 women aged 19 to 46 years were interviewed in a pilot qualitative study. Then a total of 111 women aged 20 to 30 years completed an Internet-based survey by means of which quantitative data were obtained on basic demographics, body care, body hair removal practices and reasons for doing so, attitudes to one's genitals and to various sexual...
