Abstract:
Objective:To systematically evaluate the disease experience of patients with gestational hypertension, provide targeted care support for patients with gestational hypertension and promote their physical and mental health.Methods:This study is a Meta-synthesis. Qualitative studies on the experience of hypertensive patients during pregnancy were searched through PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, Embase, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Database, VIP and China Biology Medicine disc. The retrieval time limit was from the establishment of the databases to May 8, 2022. The quality of the studies were evaluated using the quality evaluation criteria for qualitative research of the Australian Joanna Briggs Institute Evidence-Based Health Care Center, and the results were integrated by the pooled integration method.Results:A total of 13 studies were included, 55 complete research results were extracted, 9 new categories were summarized and 3 integrated results were synthesized. Integration result 1 was the physical, psychological and behavioral changes that occurred in patients with gestational hypertension after diagnosis of the disease. Integration result 2 was that patients with gestational hypertension had coping deficits and hoped to receive support from multiple sources. Integration result 3 was the current and future challenges for patients with gestational hypertension.Conclusions:Gestational hypertension will bring many impacts to the patients, which needs support from many aspects. There are many challenges for disease management in the future. Medical staff should fully understand the experience of patients with gestational hypertension, give guidance and support to the most authentic feelings and experiences of the patients and encourage them to actively deal with the disease. At the same time, an effective and comprehensive support system should be built to help them better manage the disease.
