The aim of this qualitative study was to increase understanding of the importance of osteoporosis information and knowledge for patients' ways of handling osteoporosis in their everyday lives. Interviews were performed with 14 patients recruited from two English university hospitals and 12 patients from a Danish university hospital. Critical psychology was used as a theoretical framework for the data analysis, which aimed at shedding light on patients' ways of conducting everyday life with osteoporosis. The themes that emerged from the analysis showed that life conditions influenced the way in which risk, pain and osteoporosis were handled. Everyday life was also influenced by patients' attitude to treatment. The patients who were experiencing emotional difficulties in handling osteoporosis were not those suffering from severe osteoporosis and fractures. Approaches to living with knowledge of future fracture risk varied according to the individual patient's resourcefulness and experiences.
这项定性研究的目的是加深对骨质疏松症信息和知识对于患者在日常生活中应对骨质疏松症方式的重要性的理解。对从两家英国大学医院招募的14名患者以及一家丹麦大学医院的12名患者进行了访谈。批判性心理学被用作数据分析的理论框架，旨在揭示患者在患有骨质疏松症的情况下进行日常生活的方式。分析中出现的主题表明，生活状况影响了应对风险、疼痛和骨质疏松症的方式。日常生活也受到患者对治疗态度的影响。在应对骨质疏松症时遇到情感困难的患者并非患有严重骨质疏松症和骨折的患者。根据个体患者的应变能力和经历，应对未来骨折风险的生活方式各不相同。
