Childhood cancers often lead to significant distress for parents. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of a Family Nursing Intervention (FNI) on the suffering of parents of children with cancer.
This study employed a quasi-experimental design with a sample of 42 parents of children with cancer. The experimental group participated in a four-week FNI program with weekly 90-minute sessions, while the control group received only routine care. Data were collected using a parenting suffering scale at baseline and after the intervention and analyzed using descriptive statistics and -tests.
This study showed that, at post-test, the parents who participated in the FNI had significantly lower suffering scores compared to those in the control group (t= -3.45, = 0.001).
These findings suggest that FNI could alleviate parents' suffering in similar contexts in the future.
儿童癌症常常给父母带来巨大痛苦。本研究旨在评估家庭护理干预(FNI)对癌症患儿父母痛苦程度的影响。
本研究采用准实验设计,样本为42名癌症患儿的父母。实验组参加了为期四周的FNI项目,每周进行90分钟的课程,而对照组仅接受常规护理。在基线和干预后使用育儿痛苦量表收集数据,并使用描述性统计和t检验进行分析。
本研究表明,在测试后,参与FNI的父母的痛苦得分显著低于对照组(t = -3.45,p = 0.001)。
这些发现表明,FNI未来可能会减轻类似情况下父母的痛苦。
