Suffering permeates the nurse´s world (English)
Abstract [sv]

Lidande utgör ett hot mot hela människan som ej kan undflys. Patientens lidande påverkar vårdaren. Det skapar ett eget lidande i sjuksköterskan som inte kan lindra patientens lidande eller till och med orsakar ytterligare lidande. Också anhörigas lidande påverkar intensivvårdssjuksköterskan. Syftet med uppsatsen var att beskriva hur intensivvårdssjuksköterskor upplevde att vårda patienter med svårt lidande. En deskriptiv, semistrukturerad intervjuundersökning genomfördes med tre intensivvårdssjuksköterskor och tolkades medelst innehållsanalys. Resultat: Temat Lidandet genomsyrar sjuksköterskans värld identifierades och handlade om hur sjuksköterskan måste hantera sitt eget lidande likväl som patientens och anhörigas. Temat var uppbyggt av tre kategorier. Lidandets former beskrev det lidande informanterna mötte på intensivvårdsavdelningen. Lidandets samspel beskrev hur positiva och negativa känslor väcktes i samarbetet med lidande patienter, anhöriga och kollegor. Att göra den andres lidande till sitt eget beskrev sjuksköterskans personliga, ofta negativa, känsloupplevelser som aktualiserades vid mötet med stort lidande.

Abstract [en]

Suffering is an unavoidable threat to the individual as a whole. Suffering of patient and relatives affects the nurse, and creates a personal suffering when incapable of relieving the patients suffering, or inflicting even more. The purpose of this study was to describe how ICU nurses experienced caring for suffering patients. A descriptive, semi-structured interview study was conducted on ICU nurses and interpreted by content analysis. Result: The theme Suffering permeates the nurse’s world was identified and described how the suffering of patient, relatives and self had to be handled by the nurse. The theme consisted of three categories. The manifestation of suffering described how suffering in the ICU is perceived. The interaction of suffering described how cooperating with suffering patients, relatives and colleagues caused negative and positive emotions. Integrating suffering of the other described often negative personal emotions of the nurse evoked when encountering suffering.
