Aim The study aimed to illuminate the experiences of patients, relatives and nurses in an oncology setting by exploring communication in cancer care. Background Like elsewhere in health settings, communication is a major component in cancer care and has an impact on patient’s outcome. However, nurse–patient/relatives communication is still recognized as an ongoing challenge. Evidence is lacking on the nurse–patient communication in Indonesia particularly in oncology settings. Design of study The current study explored the lived experiences of patients, relatives and nursing regarding communication in an oncology setting at a private Islamic hospital. A phenomenological research design on the basis of the naturalistic paradigm was employed. The researchers purposely selected 16 participants and conducted semi‐structured interviews using an interview guide. Colaizzi’s naturalistic phenomenological approach was utilized to analyse the data. Results Three themes emerged from the data: Building a compassionate relationship, Spiritual and religious discussion, Maintaining hope. Developing trust and providing empathy as well as showing genuineness are elements in building the compassionate relationship. The religious and spiritual discussion includes reminders to pray and increase self‐transcendence awareness. Patients and their relatives welcome such discussion. Maintaining hope is part of communication that can preserve positive feelings, goals and beliefs of patients and their families for their well‐being. Conclusion Establishing compassionate relationship is the basis of communication in cancer care. Spiritual and religion, and hope are aspects that nurses and patients and their relatives discuss among themselves. These aspects may affect patient’s outcome and quality of care and require further research. Implication for nursing and health policy Findings suggest that it is important to have communication during cancer care, which includes compassion, spiritual and religious aspect, and hope as it potentially enables patients and relatives to deal with their cancer journey. Our findings have implications for nursing practice, education and policy so that there is an integration of biopsychosocial, and spiritual and religious aspects in cancer communication.
Komunikasi terapeutik diakui sebagai kunci untuk perawatan kanker yang berkualitas, tetapi komunikasi perawat-pasien dalam perawatan kanker adalah hal menantang dan kompleks, selain data yang mengeksplorasi komunikasi perawat-pasien masing sangat kurang. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah untuk melaporkan hasil temuan tentang perspektif perawat, pasien dan keluarga terkait hambatan dan strategi komunikasi dalam perawatan kanker. Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian fenomenologi yang dilakukan di RS. PKU Muhammadiyah Yogyakarta. Respoden penelitian ini adalah 16 orang (4 perawat, 7 pasien dan 5 anggota keluarga) yang dipilih melalui purposive sampling dan dilakukan wawancara semi terstruktur. Semua hasil wawancara di transkrip dan dianalisis menggunakan metode Collaizzi. Hasil penelitian ini mengidentifikasi dua tema yaitu hambatan berkomunikasi efektif dan manajemen berkomunikasi. Hambatan komunikasi dikontruksi oleh sikap mengabaikan, tingkat pendidikan dan kondisi psikologis. Manajemen berkomunikasi terdiri dari persiapan diri, validasi pengetahuan pasien, dan struktur penyampaian informasi. Kesimpulan dalam penelitian ini yaitu komunikasi terapeutik merupakan pondasi untuk mempromosikan kualitas perawatan kanker. Hambatan berkomunikasi perlu dimanaje dengan baik dengan mengimplementasikan tindakan untuk menjaga interaksi dan pertukaran informasi seperti mempersiapkan diri, mevalidasi pemahaman pasien, dan penyampaian informasi secara terstruktur
Latar Belakang: Pasien gagal ginjal kronis dengan laju filtrasi glomerulus <15 ml/menit/1,73 m2 memerlukan terapi hemodialisis untuk menggantikan fungsi khas ginjal. Namun hemodialisis dapat menimbulkan efek yang tidak diinginkan seperti kram otot, kelelahan, dan atropi otot. Terapi intradialitik dianggap sebagai salah satu terapi yang dapat meminimalkan efek samping & meningkatkan kinerja HD. Tujuan: untuk mengidentifikasi dan merangkum efek terapi latihan intradialitik pada pasien hemodialisis. Metode: Literature review dengan pendekatan narasi, literature yang relevan ditelusuri melalui database pubmed dan mesin pencari google cendekia dengan kata kunci “exercise” + “intradialytic exercise” + “hemodialysis”. Hasil: 5 artikel yang sesuai dengan kriteria review. Latihan intradialitik meningkatkan kemanjuran dialisis, menurunkan tingkat kelelahan dan meningkatkan fungsi fisik secara keseluruhan, menurunkan kadar serum fosfat, kalium, kalsium, urea, dan kreatinin, menurunkan depresi, dan menurunkan kejadian hipotensi intradialitik. Kesimpulan: Latihan intradialitik dapat dijadikan terapi modalitas untuk meningkatkan kinerja dialisis dan outcome kesehatan pasien GGK.
