Patient experiences of Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome - A literature review (English)
Abstract [sv]

Bakgrund: Aktuell forskning om kroniskt bäckenbottensmärtsyndrom (CP/CPPS) visar brist på behandlingsalternativ som adekvat lindrar symtomen. Män och kvinnor med diagnosen CP/CPPS upplever vanligtvis ett långvarigt symtomförlopp som uppkommer både fysiskt och mentalt. CP/CPPS påverkar patientens livskvalitet och diagnosen i sig påverkas av sjuksköterskan och sjuksköterskans roll inom den personcentrerade vården. Metod: En litteraturöversikt av kvalitativ ansats genomfördes för att analysera kvalitativa intervjudata som avsåg patientupplevelser av CP/CPPS.Resultat: Analysen resulterade i fyra teman: Patienter med en CP/CPPS-diagnos upplever svårigheter i sina sexuella relationer; Patienter upplever ofta en känslomässig påverkan på grund av CP/CPPS-relaterade symtom såsom ångest eller katastroftänkande; CP/CPPS orsakar social isolering som påverkar patienternas dagliga liv; Vårdrelaterade känslor av hjälplöshet och hopplöshet upplevs av CP/CPPS-patienter där patienter känner att deras problem inte ses eller hörs av medicinska leverantörer, vilket får dem att känna en brist av kontroll över sina liv. Konklusion: Patientupplevelser av CP/CPPS manifesteras negativt, vilket resulterar i en minskning av livskvalitet. För att kunna förstå och försöka hjälpa patienten i sin kamp med CP/CPPS, krävs först en förförståelse för hur de negativa manifestationerna av CP/CPPS flätas samman och förvärras genom en ömsesidig påverkan.

Abstract [en]

Background: Current research about Chronic Pelvic Pain Syndrome (CP/CPPS) shows a lack of treatment options that give adequate results. Men and women diagnosed with CPPS usually experience a long course of symptoms which manifest in different ways, both physically and mentally. CP/CPPS has strong ties to patient quality of life and the diagnosis is impacted by the nurse and the nurse’s role within person-centred care. Method: A literature review was carried out to analyse qualitative interview data that pertained to patient experiences of CP/CPPS. Results: The analysis resulted in four themes: Patients with a CP/CPPS diagnosis experience difficulties in their sexual relationships; Patients often experience an emotional impact due to CP/CPPS related symptoms such as anxiety or catastrophic thinking; CP/CPPS causes social withdrawal which impacts patients’ daily life; Care-related helplessness and hopelessness are experienced by CP/CPPS patients whereby patients feel that their issues were not being seen or heard by medical providers which caused them to feel a loss of control over their lives. Conclusion: Patient experiences of CP/CPPS manifest themselves negatively and have an impact on a patient’s well-being, life world and even relationships both personal and within care. To understand and attempt to aid patients in their struggle with CP/CPPS, there first requires a pre-understanding of how the negative manifestations of CP/CPPS intertwine and exacerbate one another.
