Abstract:
UNASSIGNED: Childhood functional constipation is a worldwide problem that affects the intestinal function of children and the quality of life of their families. Treatment and management of the disease need to be carried out at home by parents. Assessment of caregiving needs is an important link in planning and implementing the intervention. This study aimed to assess the caregiving needs of parents of FC infants and toddlers.
UNASSIGNED: The researchers recruited convenience samples of parents from an outpatient pediatric constipation clinic of a children\'s medical center. Totally 211 fathers/mothers were recruited. Nursing needs were measured by a questionnaire, and associations between nursing needs and potential factors were examined using multiple regression analysis.
UNASSIGNED: The vast majority of participants (88.7%) expressed the need of receiving support from professionals, and only 44 (20.85%) had obtained help from medical staff. The needs of parents mainly include information needs, health needs, psychological needs, and social needs. Of all the needs, the highest score was for information needs (3.87 ± 0.69), followed by the dimension of health needs (3.74 ± 0.82). Results showed statistically significant differences in parental education, place of residence, age of children, duration of FC, defecation frequency, difficulty of defecation, and stool traits in nursing needs (p < 0.05). The regression model explained 64.2% of the variance of nursing needs.
UNASSIGNED: Information needs were the major concern for parents, and the unmet needs of parents should be addressed during treatment and care. When developing care plans and providing health education, it should be adjusted according to the specific conditions of the child and parents to improve the compliance of the parents with treatment and care.
摘要:
儿童功能性便秘是一个世界性问题,影响儿童的肠道功能及其家庭的生活质量。这种疾病的治疗和管理需要由父母在家进行。评估护理需求是计划和实施干预措施的重要环节。这项研究旨在评估FC婴幼儿父母的护理需求。
研究人员从一家儿童医疗中心的门诊儿科便秘诊所招募了父母的便利样本。总共招募了211名父亲/母亲。护理需求通过问卷调查来衡量,使用多元回归分析检查了护理需求与潜在因素之间的关联。
绝大多数参与者(88.7%)表示需要得到专业人士的支持,只有44人(20.85%)获得了医务人员的帮助。家长的需求主要包括信息需求,健康需求,心理需求,和社会需求。在所有的需求中,最高分是信息需求(3.87±0.69),其次是健康需求维度(3.74±0.82)。结果显示父母教育差异有统计学意义,居住地,孩子的年龄,FC的持续时间,排便频率,排便困难,护理需求中的大便性状(p<0.05)。回归模型解释了64.2%的护理需求变化。
信息需求是父母的主要关注点,在治疗和护理期间,应解决父母未满足的需求。在制定护理计划和提供健康教育时,应根据孩子和父母的具体情况进行调整,以提高父母对治疗和护理的依从性。
