中文摘要 | 探討有關臺灣兒童疼痛經驗的文獻仍然在少數。因為疼痛與文化因素有很大的關係,健康照顧者不應直接運用美國研究兒童疼痛經驗的結果來照顧我國的兒童,因此,本研究是運用半結構式的會談的方式,探討臺灣兒童的疼痛經驗,計訪談90位5到14歲,具有急性疼痛的住院病童。資料採用Krippendorff's (1980)的內容分析,共有疼痛定義、疼痛性質、過去疼痛經驗、預期疼痛、疼痛接受度、疼痛原因及意義七個主題概念。研究結果大致上與國外的研究結果雷同,只有部分的疼痛經驗與疼痛意義與美國學者的研究結果不同,包括孩童對哭泣的解釋以及臺灣孩童的父母如何向他們的父母解釋疼痛。不同處可能與取樣的數目及研究方法不同有關。建議再深入探討文化因素如何影響個人的疼痛經驗。 |
英文摘要 | Little information was found in studying Taiwanese children's pain experiences. Because pain is culturally shaped, health care providers should not assume Taiwanese children's pain to be identical to those of children in the US. Thus, a qualitative descriptive study with semi-structured interview of 90 hospitalized Taiwanese children with acute pain was conducted to understand Taiwanese children's pain experiences. Krippendorff's (1980) content analysis was used to guide the data analysis. Seven themes from the interview data were presented, including definition of pain, quality of pain, previous pain experiences, pain expectation, pain acceptance, causes of pain and meaning of pain. Surprisingly, the results of this study revealed few differences in the experiences and meanings of pain. Most results are consistent with the studies done in the US. Differences are minor, including the interpretation of children's crying and how Taiwanese parents talk with their children about pain, and are probably related to the sample sizes and methodology of the studies. Further research is necessary about the influence of culture upon children's pain experiences. |
