Obstacles in palliative care for patients with COPD in municipal health care : a literature study (English)
Abstract [sv]

Bakgrund: Kronisk obstruktiv lungsjukdom (KOL) är en folksjukdom och många miljoner personer lever med sjukdomen globalt. För att patienter med KOL ska uppnå en god livskvalité genom minskade sjukhusinläggningar krävs en god palliativ vårdinsats som ska ges i hemmet. Distriktssköterskor inom kommunal hemsjukvård har en central roll inom palliativ vård. Syfte: Syftet med studien var att beskriva hinder för distriktssköterskans palliativa vårdinsatser till patienter med KOL i hemmet.

Metod: Studien var en systematisk litteraturstudie baserat på tio artiklar. Sökningen, granskningen och analysen av samtliga artiklarna gjordes enligt Bettany-Saltikov & McSherrys modell. Resultat: I resultatet framkom fyra kategorier: bristande kunskap och kompetens, kommunikationsproblem och teamsamarbete, initiering av palliativ vård och brister i organisationen inom hemsjukvård.

Slutsats: Ökad kompetens genom kunskapsutveckling, välstrukturerad organisation inom hemsjukvård såsom personalbemanning, och multidisciplinär teamssamverkan ger distriktssköterskor goda förutsättningar att klara av palliativa vårdinsatser till KOL-patienter i hemsjukvården. I resultatet framkommer att dessa viktiga faktorer brister, vilket förhindrar distriktssköterskor att ge en god palliativ vård till patienter med KOL. Förslag på vidare forskning är en intervjustudie med distriktssköterskor inom hemsjukvården samt med deras chefer med frågor kring kunskap, kompetens, utbildning och organisation.

Abstract [en]

Background: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a public health disease that affects millions of people globally. To improve quality of life with reduced hospital admissions, palliative care at home are important for patients with COPD. District nurses in municipal home care have a central role in palliative care. Aim: The purpose of this study was to describe obstacles to the district nurse’s palliative care efforts to patients with COPD at home. Method: The study was a systematic literature review based on ten articles. The search, review and analysis of all the articles was done according to Bettany-Saltikov & McSherry’s model. Results: The results revealed four categories: lack of knowledge and competence, communication problems and team collaboration, initiation of palliative care and shortcomings in the organization in home care. Conclusion: Increased competence through knowledge development, well-structured organization in home care such as staffing, and multidisciplinary team collaboration give district nurses good conditions to cope with palliative care efforts to COPD patients in home care. The results show that these important factors are lacking, which prevents district nurses from providing good palliative care to patients with COPD at home. Suggestion for further research explore district nurse´s knowledge and understanding through an interview method.
