Abstract

Objective: The study looked into emergency department family members' (FMs) views on being present during resuscitation and contributing to end-of-life care.

Methods: A cross-sectional study with 467 FM volunteers of mildly injured or ill patients was conducted at a research hospital between October 2021 and May 2022. Data were collected using a questionnaire administered by a clinical psychologist. The analysis employed SPSS 22.0 with a significance threshold of P < 0.05. The study was conducted according to the STROBE criteria. Statistical significance was set at P < 0.05.

Results: The mean FMs' age was 34.3 ± 10.43; 64.2% were male, 62.1% were married, and 76.9% had nuclear families. About 61% wanted the option of being present during resuscitation, with 47.5% desiring participation in both resuscitation and end-of-life care. Significant differences were observed in opinions based on education, work status, and resuscitation training (P = 0.015, P = 0.001, P = 0.002).

Conclusion: Many FMs sought the choice to be present during resuscitation, and nearly half preferred participation in both resuscitation and end-of-life care.

家属对急诊科抢救和参与临终关怀的意见：一项横断面研究。

研究目的该研究调查了急诊科家属（FMs）对抢救过程中在场以及对临终关怀的看法：方法：2021 年 10 月至 2022 年 5 月期间，在一家研究型医院对 467 名轻伤或轻症患者的家属志愿者进行了横断面研究。数据通过临床心理学家发放的调查问卷收集。分析采用 SPSS 22.0，显著性阈值为 P <0.05。研究根据 STROBE 标准进行。统计显著性以 P < 0.05 为标准：家庭主妇的平均年龄为（34.3 ± 10.43）岁；64.2%为男性，62.1%已婚，76.9%拥有核心家庭。约 61% 的人希望在抢救时在场，47.5% 的人希望同时参与抢救和临终关怀。教育程度、工作状况和复苏培训不同，意见也有显著差异（P = 0.015、P = 0.001、P = 0.002）：结论：许多家庭医生希望选择在复苏过程中在场，近一半的家庭医生希望同时参与复苏和临终关怀。
