This systematic review of published quantitative research was conducted to explore the effects of spirituality-integrated interventions for informal caregivers of terminally ill patients. Multiple databases were searched for articles published between January 2004 and November 2019. Twelve randomized controlled trials were identified. Methodological quality was assessed using the revised Cochrane Collaboration's tool for assessing risk of bias. Studies were notably diverse in terms of spiritual background, intervention design, technology used, and outcomes measures. Spirituality-integrated interventions were found to show positive outcomes for caregivers. However, methodological flaws negatively affected the quality of most studies, warranting further and rigorous research into the topic.
本系统综述已发表的定量研究，旨在探讨灵性整合干预对晚期绝症患者非正式照护者的影响。检索了多个数据库，查找2004年1月至2019年11月期间发表的文章。共识别出12项随机对照试验。使用修订后的Cochrane协作网偏倚风险评估工具对方法学质量进行评估。研究在灵性背景、干预设计、使用的技术和结局测量方面存在显著差异。发现灵性整合干预对照护者显示出积极效果。然而，方法学缺陷对大多数研究的质量产生了负面影响，因此有必要对该主题进行进一步严谨的研究。
