Hvordan kan intensivsykepleier kvalitetssikre og ivareta pasienten i beslutningsprosessen, når det kommer til spørsmål om livsforlengende behandling hos pasienter uten samtykkekompetanse?

Abstract

ENGLISH: Introduction: Research, both international and in Norway shows that over-treating patients towards the end of life is an increasing ethical dilemma. In a society with constantly advancing technology, more alternatives for treatment and growing consumer information, health workers are reporting increasing pressure from patients, families and colleagues to give life-prolonging treatment. Aim: Is to achieve a deeper understanding of the Intensive Care nurses’ role in the decision-making process concerning withdrawal of life-prolonging treatment. Method: This is a literature review. We sought scientific articles via the following databases: Cinahl, Ovid Nursing database, Oria, Google scholar, medline og Proquest. Through analysis of the articles and discussing findings, we have come to an answer to our question. Result: The Intensive Care nurse is the first member of the nursing team that, by means of observation, questions the patients’ potential for treatment. Their close contact with the patient and their relatives gives a unique opportunity to obtain an overall picture of the patients’ situation. Poor communication, different values and poor cooperation in the decision-making process led to fruitless treatment. Nurses felt that in some cases it was difficult to follow the doctors’ orders. Conclusion: The nurse possesses valuable information that must be given attention if a decision based on academic justifiability is to be taken where the patients’ wishes are respected.

NORSK: Bakgrunn: Forskning, både internasjonalt og i Norge viser til at overbehandling av pasienter på slutten av livet er ett økende etisk dilemma. I ett samfunn med stadig mer avansert teknologi, flere behandlingsalternativer og voksende konsumerinformasjon rapporterer helsearbeidere om øktende press fra pasienter, familier og kollegaer om å gi intensiv, livsforlengende behandling. Mål: Å få en dypere forståelse av intensivsykepleiers rolle i beslutningsprosessen rundt tilbaketrekning av livsforlengende behandling. Metode: Denne oppgaven er en litteraturstudie. Vi søkt etter vitenskapelige artikler via databasene: Cinahl, Ovid Nursing database, Oria, Google scholar, medline og Proquest. Gjennom analyser av artiklene og drøfting av artiklenes funn har vi fått svar på vår problemstilling. Resultat: Intensivsykepleier er den i behandlingsteamet som først gjennom sine observasjoner stiller spørsmål om pasientens behandlingspotensial. Sykepleiernes tette kontakt med pasient og pårørende gir de en unik mulighet til å skaffe seg et helhetlig bilde av pasienten. Dårlig kommunikasjon, ulike verdier og dårlig samarbeid i beslutningsprosessen førte til nytteløs behandling. Sykepleiere følte at det i noen tilfeller var vanskelig å utføre det legen hadde ordinert. Konklusjon: Sykepleier innehar verdifull informasjon som må vektlegges om man skal kunne fatte en beslutning basert på faglig forsvarlighet der pasientens ønsker blir respektert.
