People's experiences of daily life after stroke : A literature review (English)
Abstract [sv]

Bakgrund: Stroke är en sjukdom som drabbar många människor i hela världen. Detta leder till stora vårdkostnader och lidande för patienterna. Komplikationer av en stroke kan ledda till långvarig sjukhusvistelse, ökade sjukvårdskostnader, försvåra återhämtningen samt orsaka dödsfall.

Syfte: Syftet var att beskriva hur personer med kvarstående komplikationer efter en stroke upplever det dagliga livet.

Metod: En litteraturöversikt baserad på tio vetenskapliga, kvalitativa artiklar. Artiklarna söktes i databaserna, CINHAL Complete och PubMed, med sökorden Complications, Experiences, Everyday life, Individuality och Stroke. Artiklarna analyserades i fyra steg där likheter och skillnader kategoriserades och tematiserades.

Resultat: Analysen resulterade i fyra teman; Upplevelser av ett begränsat liv som beskriver hur kognitiva begränsningar identifierades som ett problem för deltagarna i det dagliga livet, Upplevelser av rädsla inför framtiden, hur stroke är en traumatisk oväntad händelse som orsakar känslor av rädsla och hopplöshet, Uppleva tacksamhet beskriver positiva reflektioner om livet efter stroke Upplevelser av det livsviktiga sociala stödet beskriver om vikten av socialt stöd och hur familjerelationer var en stor del av livet. 

Sammanfattning: Resultatet i denna litteraturöversikt lyfte fram hur att inte kunna utföra vardagliga aktiviteter påverkade deltagarnas självförtroende, motivation och tålamod. Där det beskrev att en stor förändring i livet inträffar efter att ha drabbats av stroke. En av de var att förlora tidigare förmågor och vardagsrutiner beskrev de som en besvikelse. Trots besvikelsen hade deltagarna också positiva reflektioner över livet trots att de sörjde över sina tidigare förmågor.
