“…They are already advanced at the time of initial diagnosis, and despite advances in treatment, the long‐term prognosis remains poor, with a low 5‐year survival rate (Bircan et al., 2020 ). Patients with advanced lung cancer have to deal with the health woes that come along with the disease, such as organ metastasis, pain due to long‐term radiotherapy, difficulty in breathing, and so on (Pribadi et al., 2023 ). These can lead to the deterioration of the patient's psychological condition, generating a high degree of negative emotions and reducing the patient's sense of meaning in life (Ester et al., 2021 ; Villalobos et al., 2019 ).…”

AimThis study aimed to explore the chain mediating effect of spiritual well‐being and anticipatory grief between benefit finding and meaning in life of patients with advanced lung cancer.DesignThis was a cross‐sectional study.MethodsThe research included 400 patients with advanced lung cancer who attended REDACTE from December 2022 to August 2023 as the research subjects. Data were collected using a questionnaire including socio‐demographic and clinical characteristics, the Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy‐Spiritual Well‐Being scale (FACIT‐Sp‐12), the Benefit Finding Scale (BFS), the Preparatory Grief in Advanced Cancer Patients Scale (PGAC), and the Meaning of Life Questionnaire (MLQ). The structural equation model (SEM) was used to analyse the relationship between benefit finding, spiritual well‐being, anticipatory grief and meaning in life.ResultsThere was a significant correlation between benefit finding, spiritual well‐being, anticipatory grief, and meaning in life. Benefit finding could have a direct positive impact on meaning in life of patients with advanced lung cancer, but it could also indirectly affect meaning in life of patients with advanced lung cancer through three pathways: the mediating effect of spiritual well‐being, the mediating effect of anticipatory grief and the chain mediating effect of spiritual well‐being and anticipatory grief. Nursing staff should develop an integrated program of interventions to enhance the meaning in life of patients with advanced lung cancer.

Background: Death is a natural part of life that no one can avoid. Listening to patients and supporting their needs during the dying process is crucial. However, dying patients are often not given a voice or choices regarding their care plans. Additionally, discussing death is difficult, even for those who consider themselves religious or have faith. Death is often avoided as a topic within the community, including the Christian community. Many people shy away from discussions about death and dying, as these topics are usually considered “taboo” and uncomfortable. Nurses’ perspectives on a “peaceful death” can contribute to high-quality care and a good-quality death. However, there is a lack of evidence regarding a “peaceful death” from the nurses’ perspective, particularly from Christian nurses in Indonesia. Objective: This study aimed to explore the perspectives of Christian nurses on a peaceful death in Indonesia. Methods: The study employed a qualitative descriptive design conducted between January and April 2024. The study sample was recruited through the distribution of an e-flyer via social media. Interviews were conducted using six open-ended questions. All interviews were audiotaped and transcribed. Eighteen Christian nurses were interviewed, including three male and fifteen female nurses. Participants were selected through purposive sampling. The study was analyzed using thematic analysis. Results: Three main themes were developed: 1) Components of a Peaceful Death, 2) Companionship and Care, and 3) Knowing the Final Destination. Conclusion: This study identified key perspectives on a peaceful death from Christian nurses. Understanding these views will help nurses, particularly Christian nurses, provide optimal care and prepare patients to achieve a peaceful death. These perspectives will enrich nursing knowledge in providing end-of-life care to dying patients based on their beliefs.
