Abstract:
Objective:To deeply explore the comprehensive function impairment of chronic heart failure (CHF) patients and analyze its influencing factors.Methods:From November 2018 to January 2019, this study selected medical workers (doctors and nurses) , CHF patients or their family members in Department of Cardiovascular at a Class Ⅲ Grade A hospital in Jiangsu Province as subjects by purposive sampling. Semi-structured interview was carried out for the subjects with the phenomenological method. Colaizzi analysis was used to extract concepts. Two researchers matched the concept with the international classification of functioning, disability and health (ICF) based on Cieza link rules. This study took ICF category no more than 5% of the former after two interviews as the sample size saturated standard.Results:Finally, a total of 28 interviewees were included. A total of 80 ICF categories were linked, 31 (38.8%) of them in body function, 5 (6.2%) in body structure, 28 (35.0%) in activity participation and 16 (20.0%) in environmental factors. Other 482 concepts could not be linked with ICF categories with health status (30.7%) for the most followed by personal factors (27.4%) .Conclusions:ICF could be used to describe the comprehensive function impairment of CHF patients and its influencing factors. Being linked with multitudinous ICF categories indicates the complex function impairment and the numerous influencing factors. This study will be beneficial to carry out the individualized, detailed and dynamic treatment and nursing based on comprehensive evaluation for CHF patients.
