Patients' experiences of self-care in Colorectal cancer : A qualitative literature review (English)
Abstract [sv]

Bakgrund: Kolorektalcancer är den tredje vanligaste cancerformen i världen. Personer som diagnostiseras med sjukdomen påverkas av de livsstilsförändringar som medföljer. Egenvård är en stor del av behandlingen i samband med kolorektalcancer och innebär att självständigt lösa hälsorelaterade problem som kan uppkomma för att uppnå hälsa och välbefinnande. Vald teoretisk referensram är Orems egenvårdsteori. Syfte: Syftet var att beskriva patientens upplevelse av egenvård under behandling vid kolorektalcancer.Metod: En litteraturöversikt med artiklar av kvalitativ design samt induktiv ansats. I resultatet användes 12 artiklar som analyserades med hjälp av Fribergs femstegsmodell. Resultat: Nyckelfynden presenteras i tre teman samt sju subteman. Teman var; Hantering av egenvård, behov av stöd samt begränsningar i livet. Litteraturöversikten visade att patienter med kolorektalcancer upplevde svårigheter kring egenvård under behandling. Sociala och emotionella påfrestningar var en bidragande faktor till att egenvården upplevdes utmanande. Stöd från vänner och familj var avgörande för att lyckad egenvård skulle uppnås. Stöd från vårdpersonal upplevdes som bristande. Slutsats: Resultatet ökar förståelsen för patienternas upplevelser av egenvård under behandling av kolorektalcancer. Sjuksköterskor behöver kontinuerligt förnya sin kunskap för att kunna uppmuntra och utbilda patienten till egenvårdhantering så att vården blir så god som möjligt.

Abstract [en]

Background: Colorectal cancer is the third most common form of cancer worldwide. Individuals diagnosed with the disease are affected by the lifestyle changes that accompany it. Self-care is a significant part of the treatment and involves independently addressing health-related issues that may occur to achieve health and well-being. The selected theoretical framework is Orem’s self-care deficit theory. Aim: The aim was to describe patients' experiences of performing self-care during treatment of colorectal cancer. Method: A literature review with articles on qualitative design and an inductive approach. 12 articles were used in the result and analyzed using Friberg's five-step model. Results: The key findings are presented in three themes and seven subthemes. The themes were: Management of self-care, need for support and limitations in life. The literature review revealed that patients with colorectal cancer experienced difficulties with self-care during their treatment. Social and emotional limitations were contributing factors to the challenging experience of self-care. Support from friends and family was essential for successful self-care outcomes. The support from health- care staff was perceived as insufficient. Conclusions: The findings increase understanding of patients' experiences of self- care during treatment of colorectal cancer. Nurses need to continually renew their knowledge in order to encourage and educate patients in self-care management to provide the best possible care to patients.
