Abstract:
Objective:To explore the experience of emotion management and program needs of patients with vasovagal syncope (VVS) from the doctor-nurse-patient perspective.Methods:This study was a phenomenological study in qualitative research. Using purposive sampling method, four medical specialists, four nursing specialists, and 10 patients with VVS from the Syncope Center of Shanghai East Hospital, Tongji University were selected from March to May 2024 for semi-structured interviews. Colaizzi's phenomenological data analysis was used to analyze the data.Results:Theme 1 was the initial perception and experience of emotion management, in which the doctor-nurse perspective included two sub-themes of emotion management met the actual needs of clinical patients and the management program was too specialized and unknown, and the patient perspective included three sub-themes of differences in the ability of individuals to recognize their own emotional state, lack of knowledge related to emotion management, and lack of social support. Theme 2 was the need for emotion management programs, in which the doctor-nurse perspective involved two sub-themes of multidisciplinary cooperation, suitable for clinical operation and follow-up, and the combination of online and offline, and in-hospital and out-of-hospital linkage, and the patient perspective involved two sub-themes of the need for healthcare guidance, easy to operate, and the diversification of forms, personalization, and meeting the needs of different populations.Conclusions:The content of emotion management is relatively unknown to doctors, nurses and patients, and even more so to patients. VVS emotion management work is still in its infancy, and emotion management as a branch of rehabilitation needs to be emphasized for its development, and psychological assessment and intervention work should be incorporated into the routine of syncope rehabilitation.
