Abstract

There is a distinct lack of literature related to the spiritual care of parents whose children with cancer are at the end of life. This has led to a dearth in evidence about how nurses may intervene with spiritual care interventions to best support these vulnerable parents. The purpose of this scoping review was to examine the evidence regarding the value of spirituality/spiritual care in minimizing the vulnerability of parents whose children were diagnosed with cancer and who faced the end of life. The Arksey and O’Malley methodological framework guided the analysis of the reviewed quantitative and qualitative literature. Spirituality and spiritual care provided bereaved parents and parents of children with cancer with necessary support and enhanced coping to allow them to better deal with this devastating experience. Spirituality and spiritual care instilled hope, assisted in the search for meaning and purpose, and guided parents to develop continuing bonds with their child. Through skillful communication, pediatric oncology nurses may guide parents of children who face the end of life to strengthen relationships that offer support, plan activities that provide opportunities for hope and connection, and identify sources of meaning in their experiences.

精神关怀：最大限度地减少癌症儿童面临生命终结的父母的脆弱性

关于癌症患儿生命垂危的父母的精神关怀，明显缺乏相关文献。这导致缺乏关于护士如何通过精神护理干预来最好地支持这些弱势父母的证据。这项范围界定审查的目的是审查有关精神/精神护理在最大限度地减少儿童被诊断为癌症并面临生命终结的父母的脆弱性方面的价值的证据。Arksey和O'Malley的方法论框架指导了对所审查的定量和定性文献的分析。精神和精神关怀为失去亲人的父母和癌症儿童的父母提供了必要的支持，并加强了应对，使他们能够更好地应对这一毁灭性的经历。灵性和精神关怀灌输了希望，有助于寻找意义和目标，并引导父母与孩子建立持续的联系。通过熟练的沟通，儿科肿瘤学护士可以指导面临生命终结的孩子的父母加强提供支持的关系，计划提供希望和联系机会的活动，并确定他们经历的意义来源。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
