Abstract:
Objective:To systematically analyze the concept evolution, defining attributes, cases, antecedents, and consequences of family resilience in children with chronic diseases, and to clarify the concept connotation of family resilience in children with chronic diseases from the perspective of nursing practice.Methods:The article on family resilience in children with chronic diseases was systematically searched in PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Scopus, Cochrane Library, APA PsycNet, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WanFang Data, VIP, and SinoMed. The retrieval period was from the establishment of the database to July 1, 2022. The Walker Avant concept analysis method was applied to the analysis.Results:Family resilience in children with chronic diseases had five defining attributes, including optimistic attitudes towards life, open communication styles, intimate family relationships, positive coping styles, and sufficient social support. The antecedents included demography characteristics, disease diagnosis, disease cognition, family rearing patterns and social and cultural environment. The consequences included both family and individual levels.Conclusions:Based on conceptual analysis, this study clarifies the conceptual attributes of family resilience in children with chronic diseases and its uniqueness compared to adult family resilience, providing a theoretical basis for constructing operational definitions, developing evaluation tools, and conducting precise interventions for future related research.
