OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this review is to understand the experience of caregivers of patients with left ventricular assist device (LVAD) and to evaluate how health professionals can support them properly.
BACKGROUND
Left ventricular assist device can improve quality of life, enhance functional status, and prolong survival in patients with advanced heart failure. Nonetheless, LVAD can adversely influence quality of life for their family caregivers.
METHODS
An integrative literature review was conducted using scientific databases between January to March 2015.
RESULTS
A total of 15 studies are included in the final review. Three major themes emerged "emotional distress," "responsibility," and "coping strategies" that characterize family caregivers' experiences with care of patients with LVAD.
CONCLUSION
Health care providers should understand the pivotal role of caregivers in promoting and maintaining patients' well-being and be able to help the caregiver to moderate the impact being overloaded. Research should be addressed to create interventions that motivate the caregivers to engage in activities that promote their health.
目的
本综述的目的是了解左心室辅助装置（LVAD）患者护理者的经历，并评估医疗专业人员如何适当地支持他们。
背景
左心室辅助装置可改善晚期心力衰竭患者的生活质量、增强功能状态并延长生存期。尽管如此，LVAD会对其家庭护理者的生活质量产生不利影响。
方法
于2015年1月至3月期间使用科学数据库进行了一项综合文献综述。
结果
最终综述共纳入15项研究。出现了三个主要主题，即“情绪困扰”、“责任”和“应对策略”，这些主题描述了家庭护理者护理LVAD患者的经历。
结论
医疗保健提供者应了解护理者在促进和维持患者健康方面的关键作用，并能够帮助护理者减轻负担过重的影响。应开展研究以制定干预措施，激励护理者参与促进其健康的活动。
