Patient´s experience while waiting for coronary artery bypass surgery : A literature review (English)
Abstract [sv]

Hjärt- och kärlsjukdomar är den största dödsorsaken i världen. En av behandlingarna som kan ges vid detta är koronar bypass operation. Väntan inför denna operation kan upplevas oviss och skapa oro hos patienten. Syftet med litteraturstudien var att undersöka patientens upplevelse i väntan på koronar bypass operation. Metod: Studien genomfördes som en allmän strukturerad litteraturstudie med induktiv ansats där sex kvalitativa, en kvantitativ samt en artikel med mixad metod erhölls. Data bearbetades genom en innehållsanalys. Resultat: Resultatet visade att patienter upplever såväl emotionell som somatisk påfrestning i väntan på koronar bypass operation. De mest framträdande upplevelserna var att patienterna upplevde ängslan och oro, ovisshet, rädsla och fysiska restriktioner. Dessa upplevelser mynnade ut till två teman den emotionella väntan och den somatiska väntan. Konklusion: I väntan på koronar bypass operation var de mest framträdande upplevelserna ovisshet samt ängslan och oro. För att reducera ovissheten, ängslan och oron var det av största vikt att sjuksköterskan arbetade personcentrerat. En sjuksköterskeledd intervention samt möjlighet att prata med tidigare koronar bypass operation patienter visade en signifikant reducering av den emotionella påfrestningen. En ökad förståelse för patienters upplevelse i väntan på koronar bypass operation är av stor vikt för att möjliggöra personcentrerad omvårdnad.

Abstract [en]

Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death in the world. One of the treatments for this is to undergo a coronary artery bypass graft. The waiting time before surgery causes uncertainty and worry in some patients. The aim was to examine patients’ experience while waiting for coronary artery bypass. The Method used was a general structured literature study with an inductive approach, where sixarticles with a qualitative approach, one quantitative and one with mixed method were found. The data was processed through a content analysis. The Result showed that patients experience both emotional and somatic stress while waiting for coronary artery bypass surgery. The most dominant experiences and emotions that patients felt were anxiety, uncertainty, fear, and physical restrictions. These experiences and emotions resulted in two themes Emotional waiting and Somatic waiting. TheConclusion showed to reduce uncertainty and anxiety it was of the utmost importance that the nurse applied person-centered care. A nurse-led intervention as well as the opportunity to talk with former coronary artery bypass patients showed a significant reduction in emotional strain. An increased understanding of patient´s experience while waiting for coronary artery bypass is of great importance to enable person-centered care.
