Zbadanie doświadczeń rodziców, wynikających z narodzin letalnie chorego dziecka. Metoda: W tym badaniu jakościowym przeprowadzono półstrukturalne wywiady pogłębione. Wywiady zostały opracowane przy użyciu analizy treści, poprzez kodowanie i konstruowanie tematów w trakcie iteracyjnych, zespołowych spotkań, za pomocą narzędzia MAXQDA. W badaniu wiło udział 13 rodziców, dziewięć kobiet po prenatalnej diagnozie o letalnym rokowaniu dla dziecka i czterech ojców dziecka. Wyniki: Analiza treści ujawniła dwa główne tematy i dwa podtematy. Pierwszy temat: „Oswojenie trudnych informacji w okresie ciąży”, w ramach drugiego tematu: „ Ten poród jest trudny ale piękny”, wyodrębniono podtematy: „radość ze spotkania z dzieckiem” i podtemat: „ czas pożegnania jest ważny”. Wnioski: Dla rodziców, którzy przygotowywali się do porodu po prenatalnej diagnozie o letalnym rokowaniu dla dziecka, doświadczenie porodu miało pozytywne implikacje. Spotkanie z nowonarodzonym dzieckiem było dla nich ważnym momentem, potwierdzeniem ich rodzicielstwa. Rodzice podkreślali, że czas pożegnania z dzieckiem był celebrowaniem ich krótkiego rodzicielstwa.","PeriodicalId":19965,"journal":{"name":"Palliative Medicine in Practice","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136081803","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Pain descriptors and adaptation of Short Form McGill Pain Questionnaire 2 (SF-MPQ-2) for older people in Brunei Darussalam","authors":"Muhammad Amirul Maidin, Noor Artini Abdul Rahman, Asmah Husaini, Shyh Poh Teo","doi":"10.5603/pmpi.a2023.0011","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.5603/pmpi.a2023.0011","url":null,"abstract":"Background: Pain is an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with actual or potential tissue damage. It is common in older people, and tends to be under-reported and under-treated. In addition to quantifying pain severity using the visual analogue scale (VAS), use of the translated Short-Form McGill Pain Questionnaire (SF-MPQ-2) to identify pain descriptors may assist with pain assessment in older people. Aims: identify pain descriptors for different pain aetiology in older people using the adapted SF-MPQ-2 Brunei Malay version and compare pain severity assessments using the VAS and SF-MPQ-2. Patients and methods: A prospective study using the translated SF-MPQ-2 in older people admitted or seen in clinic under Orthopaedics and Geriatrics specialties between November 2018 and February 2019. Results: There were 75 participants, with 21 pain descriptors used. The main descriptors for fractures, osteoarthritis or muscle/tendon problems were identified. Despite pain medication, more than a third still experienced moderate to severe pain. However, almost all were satisfied with the pain management. There was a statistically significant difference between pain severity between the VAS and SF-MPQ-2, with the VAS possibly underestimating pain. Conclusions: The adapted SF-MPQ-2 appears feasible for use with older people in Brunei. Further studies are required to formally validate the SF-MPQ-2 in older patients and with specific medical conditions, such as diabetes or surgery.","PeriodicalId":19965,"journal":{"name":"Palliative Medicine in Practice","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135479557","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
