Hope is a critically important concept in palliative care that enables coping and increases quality of life. This qualitative study was conducted to determine how palliative care patients describe hope and the factors that increase or decrease hope after a hope intervention. Data were collected through semi-structural interviews with 10 palliative care patients. The analysis followed a thematic analysis approach. The participants defined hope as the joy of living in general, and the strength to cope with difficulties and stated that spending time with loved ones increased their hopes, the worsening of their diseases reduced their hopes, hope made them feel good psychologically, and health workers had an important role in increasing hope. It is recommended that hope interventions be person-centric in palliative care settings and that care should be structured by considering the factors that maintain and prevent hope.
希望是姑息治疗中一个极其重要的概念,它有助于患者应对疾病并提高生活质量。本定性研究旨在确定姑息治疗患者如何描述希望,以及希望干预后增加或减少希望的因素。通过对10名姑息治疗患者进行半结构式访谈收集数据。分析采用主题分析法。参与者将希望定义为总体上生活的喜悦,以及应对困难的力量,并表示与亲人共度时光增加了他们的希望,疾病的恶化降低了他们的希望,希望使他们在心理上感觉良好,医护人员在增加希望方面发挥着重要作用。建议在姑息治疗环境中,希望干预应以患者为中心,并且应通过考虑维持和阻碍希望的因素来构建护理。
