Mental health patients' experiences of softer coercion and its effects on their interactions with practitioners: A qualitative evidence synthesis
Abstract
Aims: To synthesize qualitative evidence of mental health patients' treatment-related experiences of softer coercion and its effect on their interactions with practitioners.
Background: Coercion is controversial but global in mental health care. It ranges from softer to harder forms, but less attention is given in the literature to softer coercion.
Design: Qualitative thematic synthesis examining patients' experiences of softer coercion.
Data sources: Electronic databases searched from inception to September 2015 and further updated January 2018.
Review methods: Thematic synthesis of 11 UK/Irish articles, quality appraised using the Critical Appraisal Skills Programme tool.
Results: Three analytic themes were developed: Losing a sense of self, Less than therapeutic relationship, and Journey through treatment.
Conclusion: Softer coercion is experienced across mental health care in a context of broader coercion.
目的: 在于综合精神病患者的软性强制治疗相关体验及其对与执业医师互动的影响。 背景: 在精神保健中,强制颇具争议,但却很普遍。其形式有软有硬,但文学作品中对软性强制的关注度较少。 设计: 检查患者软性强制体验的定性主题合成。 资料来源: 从收录到2015年9月搜索了电子数据库,并于2018年1月对其进一步更新。 综述方法: 11篇英国/爱尔兰文章的主题合成,使用关键评估技能计划工具进行质量评估。 结果: 开发了三个解析主题:失去自我意识、治疗关系很差和治疗历程。 结论: 在范围更大的强制下,于精神保健中经历了更为软性的强制。.
