The purpose of this review is to explore how home technology care affects patients, family caregivers, and quality of life (QOL).
A literature search was conducted to identify studies of home parenteral nutrition (HPN) and other technology prescribed home care.
Technology dependence influences health-related QOL. Patients and their family caregivers must balance the positive aspects of being in the home environment with the challenges of administering complex therapies at home. Patients and caregivers need additional support to reduce the physical, emotional, social, and financial burdens they experience.
More research is needed to address effective interventions to reduce patient and caregiver burdens and to improve outcomes for technology-dependent individuals. A greater level of preparedness for managing home technology and technology-related problems may improve quality of life.
本综述的目的是探讨家庭技术护理如何影响患者、家庭护理人员和生活质量（QOL）。
进行文献检索以确定家庭肠外营养（HPN）和其他规定的家庭技术护理研究。
技术依赖会影响与健康相关的生活质量。患者及其家庭护理人员必须在家庭环境的积极方面与在家中进行复杂治疗的挑战之间取得平衡。患者和护理人员需要额外的支持，以减轻他们所经历的身体、情感、社会和经济负担。
需要更多的研究来确定有效的干预措施，以减轻患者和护理人员的负担，并改善技术依赖个体的治疗效果。对管理家庭技术和与技术相关问题有更高的准备水平可能会提高生活质量。
