The nurse’s experiences of caring for patients with multidrugresistant bacteria : A literature study (English)
Abstract [sv]

Bakgrund: Multiresistenta bakterier är ett globalt växande samhällsproblem och ett utav de största folkhälsoproblemen. Förekomsten av multiresistenta bakterier ökar genom användning av antibiotika, framförallt bred-spektrumantibiotika. Multiresistenta bakterier leder till ökad sjuklighet och dödlighet, längre vårdtider och spridning sker både i samhället samt på sjukhus. MRSA, ESBL, VRE och MDR-TB är de multiresistenta bakterier som litteraturstudien fokuserar på. Syfte: Syftet var att belysa sjuksköterskans erfarenheter av att vårda patienter med multiresistenta bakterier. Metod: En allmän litteraturstudie med kvalitativ metod och induktiv ansats utfördes. Åtta vetenskapliga artiklar granskades och analyserades tills kategorier identifierades. Resultat: Analysen resulterade i att fem kategorier identifierades: sjuksköterskans rädslor, otillräcklig kunskap, sjuksköterskans ansvar, organisatoriska brister och utmaningar med patienter i isolering. Sjuksköterskorna beskrev att det förekom hinder i vårdandet av patienter med multiresistenta bakterier såsom bristande kunskap och ledarskap, rädsla för att smittas och smitta andra, avsaknad av riktlinjer samt isolering av patienter. Konklusion: Sjuksköterskor behöver mer kunskap och goda förutsättningar för att kunna ge patienter med multiresistenta bakterier optimal vård.

Abstract [en]

Background: Multidrug-resistant bacteria are a globally growing problem in society and one of the largest public health problems. The occurrence of multidrug-resistant bacteria increases through the use of antibiotics, especially broad-spectrum antibiotics. Multidrug-resistant bacteria leads to increased morbidity and mortality as well as longer treatments, and the bacteria are spread in both society and in hospitals. The literature study focuses on the multidrug-resistant bacteria MRSA, ESBL, VRE and MDR-TB. Aim: The aim was to illustrate the nurse''s experiences of caring for patients with multidrug-resistant bacteria. Method: A general literature study with a qualitative method and an inductive approach was carried out. Eight scientific articles were reviewed and analyzed until categories were identified. Results: The analysis resulted in five categories being identified: the nurse''s fears, insufficient knowledge, the nurse''s responsibilities, organizational deficiencies and challenges with patients in isolation. The nurses'' described obstacles in the care of patients with multiresistant bacteria such as lack of knowledge and leadership, fear of being infected and infecting others, lack of guidelines and isolation of patients. Conclusion: Nurses need more knowledge and good conditions to be able to give patients with multidrug-resistant bacteria optimal care.
