The aim of this study was to explore the barriers to effective pain management in Iranian people with cancer.
A qualitative descriptive design was used.
This qualitative descriptive study was performed on 14 people with cancer. Data were collected using semi-structured interviews and analysed by Graneheim and Lundman's content analysis method.
Four main categories emerged in relation to barriers to pain management from the perspective of people with cancer. Categories included 1) accepting and enduring divine pain, 2) negative attitudes towards the effectiveness of analgesics, 3) patients' low knowledge of pain self-management methods and 4) neglected pain management. Barriers to pain management are multidimensional in nature consisting of patients, healthcare providers and system components. Therefore, attempts should be focused on the education of patients and healthcare providers about pain management and eliminating the shortcomings of the healthcare system.
本研究旨在探讨伊朗癌症患者有效疼痛管理的障碍。
采用定性描述设计。
这项定性描述研究纳入了 14 名癌症患者。采用半结构式访谈收集数据,并采用 Graneheim 和 Lundman 的内容分析法进行分析。
从癌症患者的角度来看,与疼痛管理障碍相关的四个主要类别出现了。类别包括 1)接受和忍受神圣的痛苦,2)对镇痛药效果的负面态度,3)患者对疼痛自我管理方法的知识水平低,4)忽视疼痛管理。疼痛管理障碍本质上是多维度的,包括患者、医疗保健提供者和系统组成部分。因此,应集中精力对患者和医疗保健提供者进行疼痛管理教育,并消除医疗保健系统的缺陷。
