“…The desire to be “a good patient” may stem from the influence of Confucianism. Confucianism encourages people to strive for a harmonious relationship with nature and others (Dayer-Berenson, 2014b). Chinese patients’ desire to maintain harmonious relationships with others may lead to a reluctance to “bother” health professionals with their health problems (Dayer-Berenson, 2014b; Tjuin et al, 2007).…”

“…As with patient-related barriers, the strong influence of a family's beliefs on pain management reported by Chinese cancer patients reflects the cultural importance of family relationships, loyalty, obligation, obedience, cooperation, interdependence, and reciprocity in Chinese society (Dayer-Berenson, 2014b). In a traditional Chinese family, health decisions are based on a process of family consensus in which the oldest family members or the eldest son usually has the greatest influence.…”

“…Chinese culture may significantly affect cancer patients’ communication, ability to cope with the cancer diagnosis and symptoms, and adherence to recommended care plans (Dayer-Berenson, 2014a; Yin et al, 2007). The pain perceptions and experiences of cancer patients from a Chinese background may be shaped by their cultural beliefs (Chen et al, 2008).…”

Of 3,904 identified records, 23 articles met criteria and provided primary data from 6,110 patients. Suboptimal analgesic use, delays in receiving treatment, reluctance to report pain, and/or poor adherence to prescribed analgesics contributed to the patients' inadequate pain control. Patient-related barriers included fatalism, desire to be good, low pain control belief, pain endurance beliefs, and negative effect beliefs. Patients and family shared barriers about fear of addiction and concerns on analgesic side effects and disease progression. Health professional-related barriers were poor communication, ineffective management of pain, and analgesic side effects. Healthcare system-related barriers included limited access to analgesics and/or after hour pain services and lack of health insurance. Significance of results Chinese cancer patients' misconceptions regarding pain and analgesics may present as the main barriers to optimal pain relief. Findings of this review may inform health interventions to improve cancer pain management outcomes for patients from Chinese backgrounds. Future studies on patients' nonpharmacology intervention-related experiences are required to inform multidisciplinary and biopsychosocial approaches for culturally appropriate pain management.

Dans les communautés francophones en situation minoritaire, le besoin d’une offre active des services en français, plutôt que d’un service qui suit la demande, est de plus en plus reconnu. Les professionnels en santé et en service social doivent être formés à cette approche et les résultats devront être évalués. Cet article décrit le processus de création et de validation de contenu (recension d’écrits, consultations d’experts, sondage Delphi pancanadien) de deux questionnaires portant sur les comportements caractéristiques de l’offre active de services sociaux et de santé en français : le premier mesurant les comportements individuels d’offre active des intervenants et le deuxième mesurant la perception de ces derniers du soutien organisationnel à l’offre active.In French-speaking minority communities, the need to actively offer services in French (rather than when the request to do so is made) is increasingly recognized. Hence, there is a need to educate health and social care providers regarding this approach and to evaluate the results. This article describes the process used (literature review, consultation with experts, cross-Canada Delphi study) to create and validate the content of two questionnaires assessing the presence of indicators of active offer of health and social services in French: one assessing individual behaviours of active offer among care providers, and another assessing their perception of the organizational support they receive to actively offer services in French
