When fear stands in the way of the nurses' ambition to provide good nursing care : A literature study on nurses' attitudes towards caring for patients with HIV (English)
Abstract [sv]

Bakgrund: Första fallet av humant immunbristvirus (hiv) upptäcktes på 1980-talet och idag lever 38,4 miljoner människor med sjukdomen. Hiv angriper människans immunförsvar och det finns inget botemedel. Sjuksköterskor har en ambition att ge en god omvårdnad men attityder till hiv kan komma att påverka patientens vård positivt eller negativt.

Syfte: Syftet var att beskriva sjuksköterskors attityder till att ge hivpositiva patienter omvårdnad utifrån en litteraturstudie.

Metod: Elva kvalitativa originalartiklar valdes ut och analyserades med en tematisk, induktiv ansats till denna kvalitativa studie. 

Resultat: Dataanalysen visar att Emotionella påfrestningar, Sociokulturella aspekter och Fördomsfri omvårdnad har en bred roll i sjuksköterskors attityd till att vårda hivpositiva patienter. Sjuksköterskor strävar alltid efter professionalism och god omvårdnad oberoende av personliga och strukturella hinder men trots det kan negativa attityder stå i vägen för en god omvårdnad. 

Slutsats: Professionalism är en faktor i god omvårdnad vid bemötandet av hivpatienter, baserad på mer kunskap och ett empatiskt förhållningssätt, fritt från emotionella påfrestningar och sociala stigman. Negativa och stigmatiserande attityder gentemot hivpositiva patienter ett problem på global nivå. Mer ny forskning behövs gällande sjuksköterskors attityd till att vårda patienter med hiv. 

Abstract [en]

Background: The first case of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) was discovered in the 1980s and today 38.4 million people live with the disease. HIV attacks the human immune system and there is no cure. Nurses have an ambition to provide good nursing care, but the care given to patients can be affected by the nurses’ attitudes towards HIV.

Purpose: To describe nurses' attitudes to provide nursing care to HIV-positive patients based on a literature study.

Method: Eleven qualitative original articles were included and analyzed using a thematic inductive approach in this qualitative study.

Result: The data analysis shows that Emotional stress, Sociocultural aspects and Open-minded nursing all have a broad role in the nurses' attitudes towards caring for HIV-positive patients. The nurses always strive for professionalism and good nursing regardless of personal and structural obstacles, but despite that, negative attitudes can stand in the way of good nursing.

Conclusion: Professionalism is a factor in good nursing when encountering HIV patients, based on more knowledge and an empathetic approach, free from emotional stress and social stigma. Negative and stigmatizing attitudes towards HIV-positive patients is a problem. More research is needed regarding the nurses' attitude towards caring for patients with HIV.
