From its beginnings in China in December of 2019, the novel coronavirus COVID-19 spread and quickly became the center of nursing care and conversation across the globe (WHO, 2020). This meta-ethnographic study was conducted in order to provide the profession of nursing interpretative explanations of a common experience during the care of patients with COVID-19.
A literature review focused on the experience of the nurse during the COVID-19 pandemic revealed a total of 13 qualitative studies conducted in China, Spain, Turkey, Iran, Brazil, and the United States. A meta-ethnographic review of these qualitative works, using the method of Noblit and Hare, was then conducted which revealed the experience of the nurse across the globe during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The review revealed strong similarities between the experiences of the nurse across the 13 studies. Given this reciprocal relationship, translations were constructed and synthesized until four new themes emerged outlining the global experience of the nurse during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Despite the differences between the structures of healthcare and government of the six countries represented in this meta-ethnography, the experience of the nurse emerged into a narrative shared by those represented in this study. As the profession of nursing continues to work through ongoing waves of COVID-19, these results will help guide the resources and training provided to nurses on the frontline of care.
Despite great personal risk, nurses across the globe stepped up to the challenge of upholding and improving the health of the world's people during the COVID-19 pandemic. As health policy, education, and system leaders, we must listen to the common experience revealed in this meta-synthesis and respond by providing the resources needed to improve nursing practice and care.
自 2019 年 12 月在中国首次出现以来,新型冠状病毒 COVID-19 迅速传播,成为全球护理和讨论的焦点(世界卫生组织,2020 年)。本元分析研究旨在为护理专业提供对 COVID-19 患者护理期间常见经历的解释。
对 COVID-19 大流行期间护士经验的文献回顾共揭示了在中国、西班牙、土耳其、伊朗、巴西和美国进行的 13 项定性研究。然后,对这些定性研究进行了元分析回顾,使用 Noblit 和 Hare 的方法,揭示了全球范围内 COVID-19 大流行期间护士的经验。
该综述揭示了 13 项研究中护士经验之间的强烈相似性。鉴于这种相互关系,构建并综合了翻译,直到出现了四个新的主题,概述了 COVID-19 大流行期间全球护士的经验。
尽管本元分析所代表的六个国家的医疗保健结构和政府存在差异,但护士的经验仍然是代表该研究的人员共同的经历。随着护理专业继续应对 COVID-19 的持续浪潮,这些结果将有助于指导为护理第一线的护士提供资源和培训。
尽管面临巨大的个人风险,但全球各地的护士都挺身而出,在 COVID-19 大流行期间维护和改善世界人民的健康。作为卫生政策、教育和系统领导者,我们必须倾听这一元分析揭示的共同经验,并通过提供所需的资源来改进护理实践和护理做出回应。
