Resumen

Incertidumbre ante la enfermedad de cuidadores familiares de pacientes en cuidados paliativos: scoping review

Incerteza dos familiares e cuidadores perante a doença de pacientes em cuidados paliativos: scoping review

Objetivo: conocer el desarrollo de la evidencia científica sobre la incertidumbre ante la enfermedad de cuidadores familiares de pacientes en cuidados paliativos.

Materiales y métodos: revisión descriptiva tipo scoping review. Se realizó una búsqueda en las bases de datos Embase, ScienceDirect, Medline, Academic Search Complete y Scopus, en el periodo 2000-2019. Se usaron los términos MeSH uncertainty, paliative care, end of life, nursing y caregiver. Luego del proceso de crítica, se seleccionaron cincuenta artículos.

Resultados: emergieron cinco núcleos temáticos: caracterización de la incertidumbre en el cuidador, factores influyentes en la incertidumbre, recursos para el manejo de la incertidumbre, evaluación de la incertidumbre y terapéuticas e intervenciones para abordar la incertidumbre. La mayor escala de evidencia se encuentra en la caracterización de la incertidumbre en el cuidador, y los vacíos orientan el desarrollo de intervenciones de enfermería sobre la incertidumbre de los cuidadores de personas en cuidado paliativo.

Conclusiones: si bien existe una amplia exploración de los factores que influyen en la incertidumbre ante la enfermedad del cuidador, la evidencia sobre las intervenciones que ayuden a disminuir la incertidumbre ante la enfermedad es aún escasa.
