Patienters upplevelser av palliativ vård : En litteraturstudie / Patients' experiences of palliative care : A literature study

Mandeep, Kaur, Jehrén, Nora January 2021 (has links)
Background: Cancer is one of the most common diseases in Sweden. When illness can no longer be cured, the patient is transferred to palliative care. The majority of palliative care is performed in hospitals. The goal of palliative care is to alleviate suffering and promote quality of life. Research has shown clear insufficiency in palliative care. From a patient perspective, insufficiency is mostly common in pain relief, communication and care environments. Aim: The aim of the literature review was to describe patients' experiences of palliative care in hospitals in the event of cancer. Method: This general literature review was based on twelve original articles with a qualitative approach that were analyzed using thematic analysis. Results: Three themes were identified: The importance of being seen as a whole person, The importance of pain relief and The importance of a good care environment. The patients were generally satisfied with the palliative care in the hospital. The importance of good pain relief and a good care environment at the hospital as well as a functioning communication with the care staff was emphasized. Conclusions: The patients who were cared for in the palliative care ward had different nursing experiences. Through patient experiences of palliative care, the nurse can increase the understanding of the patient's care needs. The knowledge can be used to give the patient an improved quality of life and alleviate suffering. / Bakgrund: Cancer är en av de vanligaste sjukdomarna i Sverige. När sjukdom inte längre går att bota övergår vården till att bli palliativ. En stor del av palliativ vård utförs på sjukhus. Målet med den palliativa vården är att lindra lidande och främja livskvaliteten. Forskning har påvisat tydliga brister inom den palliativa vården. Ur patientperspektiv är det framför allt brister inom smärtlindring, kommunikation och vårdmiljöns utformning. Syfte: Syftet med litteraturöversikten var att beskriva patienters upplevelser av palliativ vård på sjukhus vid cancersjukdom. Metod: En allmän litteraturöversikt baserad på tolv originalartiklar med kvalitativ ansats som analyserades med hjälp av tematisk analys. Resultat: Tre teman identifierades: Betydelsen av att bli sedd som en hel människa, Vikten av smärtlindring och Vikten av en god vårdmiljö. Patienterna var överlag nöjda med den palliativa vården på sjukhus. Vikten av en god smärtlindring och en bra vårdmiljö på sjukhuset samt en fungerande kommunikation med vårdpersonalen betonades. Slutsats: Patienterna som vårdades på palliativ vårdavdelning hade olika vårdupplevelser. Genom patientupplevelser av den palliativa vården kan sjuksköterskan öka förståelsen för patientens vårdbehov. Kunskapen kan användas för att ge patienten förbättrad livskvalité́ och lindra lidande.
