This meta-synthesis of qualitative studies aimed to explore the experiences and needs of family members of victims of sudden cardiac death.
A meta-synthesis was conducted.
Five databases (PubMed, CINAHL, EMBASE, Web of Science, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure) were searched from establishment to May 2024. From initial searches with essential keywords (sudden cardiac death, family members, and qualitative studies), 3021 articles were retrieved. There were eight studies in the meta-synthesis, selected on the basis of inclusion and exclusion criteria.
We evaluated the quality of the included studies using the Critical Appraisal Skills Programme-Qualitative Research Checklist.
Eight studies from six countries reported on the experiences and needs of family members who had lost someone to sudden cardiac death, and five analytical themes were synthesized: negative emotional reaction, finding cause of death, rebuilding life, meaning reconstruction and need for support. These experiences and needs fuse with each other and are relevant to the health and future of the family members.
Negative emotional reaction is a necessary process for family members dealing with sudden cardiac death, and rebuilding life is a challenge that family members must face. In the process of family members rebuilding normal life, finding the cause of death is the foundation, and meaning reconstruction is the core. Many of the needs faced by these family members are not well met, and policymakers and bereavement teams should provide comprehensive and personalized interventions for them.
本定性研究的荟萃分析旨在探讨心脏性猝死患者家属的体验和需求。
荟萃分析。
从建立到 2024 年 5 月，在 5 个数据库（PubMed、CINAHL、EMBASE、Web of Science 和中国国家知识基础设施）中搜索。从使用基本关键词（心脏性猝死、家属和定性研究）的初始搜索中，共检索到 3021 篇文章。根据纳入和排除标准，有 8 项研究被纳入荟萃分析。
我们使用批判性评估技能计划定性研究清单评估纳入研究的质量。
来自六个国家的八项研究报告了失去亲人的心脏性猝死患者家属的体验和需求，综合了五个分析主题：负面情绪反应、寻找死亡原因、重建生活、意义重建和支持需求。这些体验和需求相互融合，与家属的健康和未来息息相关。
负面情绪反应是家属应对心脏性猝死的必要过程，重建生活是家属必须面对的挑战。在家属重建正常生活的过程中，寻找死亡原因是基础，意义重建是核心。这些家属面临的许多需求都没有得到很好的满足，政策制定者和丧亲团队应该为他们提供全面和个性化的干预措施。
