Previous studies have highlighted the experiences of caregivers for patients with chronic heart failure (CHF), specifically focusing on their negative experiences. There are few systematic reviews on the topic to synthesise the positive experiences of family caregivers for patients with CHF. This study will examine how experiences such as developing new skills, strengthening their relationships (between caregivers and recipients) and receiving appreciation from the care recipient assist to improve caregivers' perception of their circumstances.
This review will be conducted in accordance with the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) methodology for qualitative systematic reviews. Qualitative and mixed methods studies related to the positive experiences of family caregivers for patients with CHF, reported in English or Chinese and published from inception in the following databases will be included: PubMed, MEDLINE, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, PsycINFO, CINAHL, Wan Fang Data, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Chongqing VIP, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database, Open Grey and Deep Blue Library databases. The standard JBI Critical Appraisal Checklist for Qualitative Research will be used by two independent reviewers to appraise the quality of the included studies, and the standardised JBI Qualitative Data Extraction Tool for Qualitative Research will be applied to extract data. The final synthesised findings will be graded according to the ConQual approach for establishing confidence in the output of qualitative research synthesis.
Ethical approval is not required as no primary data are being collected. The results will be made available through a peer-reviewed publication.

先前的研究强调了慢性心力衰竭（CHF）患者照顾者的经历，特别是他们的负面经历。关于家庭照顾者照顾 CHF 患者的积极经历，很少有系统的综述来综合这些经验。本研究将研究诸如发展新技能、加强他们之间的关系（照顾者和接受者之间）以及从照顾接受者那里获得赞赏等经验如何帮助改善照顾者对自身环境的看法。
本综述将按照乔安娜·布里格斯研究所（JBI）的定性系统综述方法进行。纳入的研究为英文或中文发表的、与 CHF 患者家庭照顾者积极经历相关的定性和混合方法研究，且研究时间从各数据库建库起。纳入的数据库包括：PubMed、MEDLINE、Embase、Cochrane 图书馆、Web of Science、PsycINFO、CINAHL、万方数据、中国国家知识基础设施、重庆 VIP、中国生物医学文献数据库、Open Grey 和 Deep Blue 图书馆数据库。两名独立评审员将使用 JBI 定性研究的标准批判性评估清单来评估纳入研究的质量，使用 JBI 定性研究的标准化数据提取工具来提取数据。最终综合的发现将根据 ConQual 方法进行分级，以确定定性研究综合结果的可信度。
由于不收集原始数据，因此不需要伦理批准。研究结果将通过同行评审的出版物提供。
