Then 224 family caregivers were selected from the communities of seven community service centers by simple random sampling method. A general information questionnaire and the home hospice care needs questionnaire developed by our research group were used to investigate. Univariate analysis was used to compare the differences in the scores of different characteristics, and the factors with significant differences were selected for multivariate linear regression analysis to determine the final influencing factors.

■在这项横断面研究中,2023年5月至9月,在锦州市7个行政区分层抽样抽取4个社区卫生服务中心,辽宁省,在那里试行了家庭临终关怀护理。然后采用简单随机抽样的方法从7个社区服务中心的社区中抽取224名家庭照顾者。采用本课题组编制的一般资料问卷和家庭临终关怀护理需求问卷进行调查。采用单因素分析比较不同特征得分的差异,并选取差异显著的因素进行多元线性回归分析,确定最终的影响因素。
■家庭照顾者的临终关怀护理需求总分为121.61±15.24,其中临终知识需求维度得分为24.04±2.71,得分指数最高为80.13%,症状控制需要评分为15.58±3.39,最低评分指数为62.32%。此外,有护理经验的护理人员,垂死的老年人,疾病持续时间较长,以及受教育程度较高的垂死老年人是影响家庭护理人员对家庭临终关怀护理总需求的因素,方差解释为22.7%。
