Post cardiac arrest care and follow-up in Sweden – a national web-survey

Abstract: BackgroundRecent decades have shown major improvements in survival rates after cardiac arrest. However, few interventions have been tested in order to improve the care for survivors and their family members. In many countries, including Sweden, national guidelines for post cardiac arrest care and follow-up programs are not available and current practice has not previously been investigated. The aim of this survey was therefore to describe current post cardiac arrest care and follow-up in Sweden.MethodsAn inter… Show more

“…It has been proved that rationing medical care is conducive to children’s general condition. It has been shown that the closer the patient is from being discharged from the hospital, the greater the tendency to ration nursing care [ 13 ]. Similar to our work, it has not been shown in these studies that rationing of medical care is influenced by such variables as the age of the nurse or professional experience.…”

“…There are a lot of studies which explored the problem of rationing nursing care in the general population of nurses; however, there has been a lack of investigation on the specific nursing work environment, such as anaesthesiologiclal nursing care. In neonatal intensive care, the reported outcomes of rationing nursing care in nursing interventions appear to influence parent and infant readiness for discharge, as well as pain control [ 13 ]. Fatigue refers to an overwhelming sense of tiredness and lack of energy, as well as a feeling of exhaustion associated with impaired physical and/or cognitive functioning [ 14 ].…”

“…However, it also is important to consider families of survivors because most ICU patients survive (Hunziker et al, 2012;Iwashyna, 2010). Surviving from critical illness will affect the lives of both the survivors and their family members (Bremer, Dahlberg, & Sandman 2009;Israelsson, 2016).…”

“…Regarding exchange of information, responsibility for the patient’s wellbeing in hospital and for the patient’s compliance with the daily regimen, Norlyk (2012) suggested that relatives were the ‘extended arms’ of health professionals [ 17 ]. According to other studies on user participation among older patients, the relatives were, by patients, perceived to be ‘the extended arms’ of themselves; they delegated decision-making to relatives [ 18 , 19 ]. Some present research emphasizes the relatives’ contribution to the support and enhancement of the level of patient participation [ 20 , 21 ].…”

“…This study is a part of a larger research project focusing on user participation among older hospitalized patients and their relatives. The first study found that older patients addressed their difficulties of participating by authorizing family members to act and participate on their behalf [ 18 ]. The second study compared and contrasted older patients’ and their relatives’ experiences of participation in decision-making processes regarding the planning of everyday life after discharge from hospital [ 24 ].…”
