Bakgrund: MRSA är en antibiotikaresistent bakterie med hög virulens. Bakterien kan orsaka infektioner i kroppen som är svåra att bli av med på grund av resistensen. MRSA hanteras utifrån specifika riktlinjer som bland annat innebär att patienter inom slutenvård vårdas i isolering. Syfte: Syftet med litteraturstudien var att belysa upplevelser hos patienter med MRSA i vården. Metod: Litteraturstudien grundades på tio primärstudier med kvalitativ ansats som togs fram genom strategiska sökningar i tre databaser, CINAHL, PubMed och Sage Journals. Resultat: Analysen resulterade i fyra kategorier med fyra subkategorier. Kategorierna var Vårdpersonalens kunskap, Bemötande från vårdpersonal, Att vara isolerad och Att bli stigmatiserad. Patienterna med MRSA hade varierande upplevelser men övervägande var negativa upplevelser av vården där en stor bidragande orsak var kunskapsbrist hos vårdpersonalen. Upplevelserna av isolering samt stigmatisering frambringade känslor av bland annat rädsla, frustration och ilska. Vårdpersonalens användning av skyddskläder påverkade bemötandet mellan personal och patient negativt. Konklusion: Patienternas negativa upplevelser i vården påverkades delvis av vårdpersonalens bemötande och kunskap, att vara isolerad samt att bli stigmatiserad. För att kunna ge patienter med MRSA god omvårdnad krävs kompetenta sjuksköterskor samt annan vårdpersonal som besitter kunskap om MRSA och förståelse för patienter med bakterien. / Background: MRSA is an antibiotic-resistant bacterium with high virulence. The bacteria can cause infections in the body that are difficult to get rid of because of its resistance. MRSA is managed based on specific guidelines which, among other things, means that patients in inpatient care are cared for in isolation. Aim: The aim of this literature review was to shed light on the experiences of patients with MRSA in healthcare. Method: The literature review was based on ten primary studies with a qualitative approach that were sought out through strategic searches in three different databases, CINAHL, PubMed and Sage Journals. Results: The analysis resulted in four categories with four subcategories. The categories were The healthcare professionals' knowledge, Treatment from healthcare professionals, Being in isolation, and To be stigmatized. The patients with MRSA had varying experiences, with predominantly negative experiences of the care, where a major contributing reason was a lack of knowledge on the part of the care staff. The experiences of isolation and stigmatization produced feelings of, among other things, fear, frustration and anger. The healthcare staff's use of protective clothing negatively affected the interaction between staff and patient. Conclusion: The patients' negative experiences in care were affected by the care staff's lack of treatment and knowledge, as well as being isolated and being stigmatized. To be able to provide good nursing care to patients with MRSA, competent nurses and other healthcare personnel who possess knowledge of MRSA and an understanding of patients with the bacteria are required.
