To identify nursing support provided for the relief of breathlessness in patients with cancer.
A scoping review following a standard framework proposed by Arksey and O'Malley.
Electronic databases (PubMed, CINAHL, CENTRAL and Ichushi-Web of the Japan Medical Abstract Society Databases) were searched from inception to 31 January 2022. Studies reporting on patients with cancer (aged ≥18 years), intervention for relief from breathlessness, nursing support and quantitatively assessed breathlessness using a scale were included.
Overall, 2629 articles were screened, and 27 were finally included. Results of the qualitative thematic analysis were categorised into 12 nursing support components: fan therapy, nurse-led intervention, multidisciplinary intervention, psychoeducational programme, breathing technique, walking therapy, inspiratory muscle training, respiratory rehabilitation, yoga, acupuncture, guided imagery and abdominal massage.
We identified 12 components of nursing support for breathlessness in patients with cancer. The study results may be useful to understand the actual state of nursing support provided for breathlessness in patients with terminal cancer and to consider possible support that can be implemented.
确定为缓解癌症患者呼吸困难而提供的护理支持。
遵循 Arksey 和 O'Malley 提出的标准框架进行的范围综述。
从建库到 2022 年 1 月 31 日,检索电子数据库(PubMed、CINAHL、CENTRAL 和日本医学摘要学会数据库 Ichushi-Web)。纳入报告癌症患者(年龄≥18 岁)、干预以缓解呼吸困难、护理支持并使用量表定量评估呼吸困难的研究。
共筛选出 2629 篇文章,最终纳入 27 篇。定性主题分析的结果分为 12 个护理支持组件:风扇疗法、护士主导的干预、多学科干预、心理教育计划、呼吸技术、步行疗法、吸气肌训练、呼吸康复、瑜伽、针灸、引导意象和腹部按摩。
我们确定了 12 个癌症患者呼吸困难的护理支持组件。研究结果可能有助于了解为终末期癌症患者呼吸困难提供的护理支持的实际情况,并考虑可以实施的可能支持。
