Children and adolescents experience of living with type 1 diabetes : A literature study (English)
Abstract [sv]

Bakgrund: Diabetes mellitus typ 1 [T1D] ökar över hela världen. T1D är bland de vanligaste endokrina och autoimmuna sjukdomarna hos barn och ungdomar. För att identifiera problemområden som kan leda till förbättringar av omvårdande och minskning av de negativa upplevelserna, genomförs denna studie av barns och ungdomars upplevelser av lever med T1D. 

Syfte: Studiens syfte var att beskriva barns och ungdomars upplevelser av att leva med T1D.

Metod: En allmän litteraturstudie baserad på Polit och Becks niostegsmodell. Tio artiklar inkluderades och granskades utifrån Graneheim och Lundmans kvalitativa innehållsanalys.

Resultat: Tre kategorier identifierades: Nya känslor, Utmaningar med sociala sammanhang och Livsstilsförändringarnas betydelse och sex tillhörande underkategorier. Resultatet visade att barn och ungdomar upplever många negativa känslor, vanligtvis kopplade till egenvård. 

Slutsats: Att leva med T1D som barn eller ungdomar är en komplex resa i livet. Genom att vårdpersonalen blir medveten om tankar och känslor som rör sig inom barn och ungdomar kan vården bli bättre. Det behövs mer studier som fokuserar på detta område.

Abstract [en]

Background: Diabetes mellitus type 1 [T1D] is increasing worldwide. T1D is among the most common endocrine and autoimmune diseases in children and adolescents. This study of the experiences of children and adolescents living with T1D is being done to identify areas of concern that could lead to improvements in care and reduction of negative experiences.

Aim: To study was to describe children and adolescents' experiences of living with T1D.

Method: A general literature study based on Polit and Beck's nine-step model. Ten articles were included and reviewed based on Graneheim and Lundman's qualitative content analysis.

Results: Three categories were identified: New emotions, Challenges with social context and the importance of lifestyle changes and six associated subcategories. The results showed that children and adolescents experience many negative emotions, generally linked to self-care.

Conclusions: Living with T1D as a child or adolescent is a complex journey in life. By making the care staff more aware of the thoughts and feelings that move within children and adolescents, the care can be improved. More studies focusing on this area are needed.
