Abstract:
Objective:To perform a Meta-synthesis of qualitative studies on the positive psychological experiences of cardiac surgery patients post-operation, and to analyze and evaluate these experiences.Methods:A systematic search was conducted in PubMed, Web of Science, CINAHL, Embase, ProQuest, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Data, VIP, and China Biology Medicine disc, with the search period from the establishment of the database to March 10, 2024. The quality of the included literature was assessed using the Australia Joanna Briggs Institute for Evidence-Based Healthcare Centre Database Quality Assessment Criteria for Qualitative Research (2016). Results were integrated using the Meta synthesis method.Results:A total of 13 studies were included, of which one study was rated as Grade A and 12 as Grade B. 46 research outcomes were identified, which were summarized into 10 new categories and integrated into three main results: awakening of self-awareness, changes in health behaviors, and perceived social support.Conclusions:Cardiac surgery patients post-operation exhibit positive psychology.
