Abstract:
Background
Illnesses influence patients as well as patient's relatives and cause emotional problems, such as anger, fear, and anxiety. Determining the needs of patient's relatives increases satisfaction of patients and relatives and enhances health-care goal achievement.
Objective
The objective of this study was to examine the needs of critically ill patient's relatives in emergency departments and the state of meeting these needs.
Methods
This descriptive study was conducted on 202 critically ill patient's relatives at emergency department of Atatürk University Research Hospital. The data were collected using the Critical Care Family Needs Inventory for Emergency Departments (CCFNIED) and a form for meeting the needs of critically ill patient's relatives. Data were analyzed using percentage distribution, mean, analysis of variance, Mann–Whitney U test, and Kruskal–Wallis test.
Results
The needs of patient's relatives according to the order of importance included communication with family members (3.88 ± 0.28), being supported (3.40 ± 0.42), being involved in care in the emergency department (3.27 ± 0.34), and comfort (3.20 ± 0.51). Using CCFNIED, the total mean score was 3.52 ± 0.31.
