A phenomenologic research study of nurse caring was conducted in an intermediate care unit of a hospital. Three narratives from the data are presented as examples to illuminate the meaning of the experience of caring for technologically dependent patients. Results revealed that vulnerability, suffering, and the ethical situations of moral blurring and moral blindness were the dynamics of caring for these patients. Identification of these phenomena cells for a new reflexive ethics in health care to increase understanding of how deep values in relation to the status of vulnerable human beings, and how moral interactions among patients, families, and caregivers, shape ethical decisions.
在一家医院的中级护理单元开展了一项关于护士关怀的现象学研究。从数据中选取了三个案例进行呈现，以阐明照顾技术依赖型患者的经历的意义。结果显示，脆弱性、痛苦以及道德模糊和道德盲目等伦理情境是照顾这些患者的动态因素。识别这些现象需要一种新的医疗保健反思伦理，以加深对与脆弱人群状况相关的深层价值观的理解，以及患者、家庭和护理人员之间的道德互动如何塑造伦理决策。
