Abstract [sv]

Bakgrund: Diabetes typ- 1 är en kronisk sjukdom och en av de största folksjukdomarna i världen som blir allt vanligare i Sverige. Sjukdomen påverkar kroppen genom att blodsockernivån är för hög eftersom kroppen saknar förmåga att producera insulin. Metod: En litteraturstudie baserad på 10 vetenskapliga artiklar som granskats utifrån Fribergs analysmodell. Syfte: Att belysa vuxna individers upplevelser av att leva med diabetes typ- 1.Resultat: Analysen resulterade i 3 teman med 8 underteman: (1) En förändrad livsstil med underteman; begränsad vardag, daglig prioritering, utanförskap. (2) Upplevelse av stöd med underteman; att sakna stöd, att känna stöd. (3) Inställning till sjukdomen med underteman; bristande acceptans, individuell egenvård, betydelsen av framtidstro. Resultatet redovisar att individerna behöver få visad förståelse och stöttning i sin sjukdom för att bli mer delaktiga i sin egenvård. Konklusion: Diabetes typ- 1 påverkar individers liv på flera olika sätt. Sjukdomen leder till många tankar, känslor och fysisk påverkan, eftersom sjukdomen skapar en ofrivillig och förändrad livsstil. Sjuksköterskans engagemang är betydelsefullt då det kan bidra till en god livskvalitet för individen.

Abstract [en]

Background: Type 1 diabetes is a chronic disease and one of the most common diseases in the world and it’s becoming more common in Sweden. The disease affects the body because the blood sugar levels are too high as a result of the body’s inability to produce insulin. Method: A literature study based on 10 scientific articles that was analyzed using Friberg’s analysis model. Aim: To shed light on adults’ experiences of living with type 1 diabetes. Findings: The analysis resulted in 3 themes with 8 subthemes. (1) Changed lifestyle with subthemes, limited everyday life, daily priorities, exclusion. (2) The importance of support with subthemes; lack of support, to feel support. (3) Attitude towards the disease with subthemes; lack of acceptance, individual self-care, the importance of faith in the future. The results show that the adults need to be shown understanding and support in their illness to become more involved in their self-care. Conclusion: The study shows that type 1 diabetes is a disease that affects an individual’s life in several different ways. The disease leads to, among other things, many thoughts, feelings and somatic impact, as the disease creates an involuntary and changed lifestyle. The nurse's commitment is important as it can contribute to a good quality of life for the individual.
