“…A third of patients with vascular diseases (34%) showed a low disease acceptance rate, significantly higher than those in patients treated surgically for other diseases in this study (14%) and a study by other authors (16.4%) (Lelonek & Kaczmarczyk, 2011). The results presented in this study in terms of mean values obtained for the entire AIS in patients with vascular diseases (25.90) are comparable to those of other authors in the group of patients with PAD (25.17) (Piotrkowska et al, 2021) and slightly lower than in the group of patients after operation of varicose veins of lower limbs (27.00) (Wiśniewska-Szumacher et al,…”

“…Adapting to the disease is an understanding of the actual health condition, which allows the patient to cope with the problems of the disease, including the sensation of pain (Bono et al, 2013;Dance, DeBerard, Gundy Cuneo 2016). Studies have confirmed that people who accept the disease show greater trust in doctors, treatment methods, a positive hopeful approach to life and active participation in therapy (Boryczko-Pater et al, 2011;Piotrkowska et al, 2021). The disease acceptance is an important element in the process of adapting to living with the disease, especially one with a troublesome tendency to relapse as well as situations related to a certain perception of the disease by society.…”

“…Acceptance is an important part of participation in the treatment process and in coping with the disease (Chabowski et al, 2017). It is therefore worth controlling and eliminating the pain which occurs in the patients, encouraging them to mobilize their own forces which serve to improve physical comfort and prevent deterioration of health and to educate in healthy behaviour, in order to better cope with a difficult situation and to accept the disease (Piotrkowska et al, 2021). Disease acceptance creates a sense of security, reduces the intensity of negative reactions and emotions related to the disease, allows for better adaptation to new conditions and decreases the sense of mental discomfort (Boryczko-Pater et al, 2011).…”

Disease acceptance and social support in patients with peripheral vascular diseases treated in the surgical ward

2021

Each surgery is an emotional stimulus associated with fear of its consequences . The scar after a surgery makes a physical, emotional and psychological mark with symptoms of depression, anxiety, anger and post-traumatic stress (Ngaage & Agius, 2018). Surgical treatment, however justified, is an interference with the physical integrity of the patient. The closer to the procedure, the more the patient considers the dangers arising from it. The patient's mental state becomes changeable, hope appears, but also anxiety associated with the fear of not waking up after surgery, fear of death, complications and anaesthesia, fear of control-loss and complete dependence on staff as well as fear of postoperative pain (Niechwiadowicz -Czapka, 2014;Bedaso & Ayalew, 2019). Studies show that the incidence of pre-operative anxiety in patients waiting for scheduled surgery may be high (47%) and having strong social support significantly reduces its intensity (Bedaso & Ayalew, 2019).Increased anxiety increases the number of complications and reduces the pain threshold (Kim et al., 2014;Marik & Flemmer, 2012).Lack of a support group along with subjective sense of loneliness significantly reduces the mental and physical immunity of the patient (Aliche, Ifeagwazi, Chukwuorji, et al., 2020). Reports from other authors indicate that emotional reactivity in patients qualified for a scheduled surgery is positively associated with pre-operative anxiety only with low level of support from friends and important individuals, but not with moderate or high support (Aliche, Ifeagwazi, & Eze, 2020). Postoperative pain felt by the patient during treatment and recovery, in both acute and chronic diseases, is one of the factors worsening the quality of life and causing less disease accep-

Background Acceptance is considered a key variable in chronic diseases such as chronic renal failure. To achieve adaptation and acceptance, people face obstacles, and identifying these obstacles primarily requires self-awareness. logo-therapy can help a person achieve this goal. To this end, this study aimed to investigate the effect of logo-therapy on disease acceptance and self-awareness of patients undergoing hemodialysis referred to a medical centers supervised by Kerman medical science university in 2021. Methods This quasi-experimental study was conducted with a pre-test-post-test research design on 80 patients with chronic renal failure undergoing hemodialysis in Kerman. The patients who met the inclusion criteria were selected using convenience sampling and were then randomly assigned to intervention and control groups (40 patients in each group). The logo-therapy training program was performed for the participants in the intervention group during 4 sessions of 45–60 min, individually and three times a week. The instruments used for data collection were a demographic information questionnaire, the Acceptance of Illness Scale (AIS), and the Self-Awareness Outcomes Questionnaire (SAOQ). The collected data were analyzed using SPSS software (version 22). Results The analysis didn’t show a significant difference in the acceptance of illness scores in the intervention group before and after the intervention (P > 0.05). Besides, a statistically significant difference was observed between the intervention and control groups in terms of self-awareness, indicating that the intervention improved the dialysis patients’ self-awareness (P < 0.05). Also, the patients’ age, marriage length, and the number of children had statistically significant correlations with self-awareness and acceptance (P < 0.05). Conclusion The results of this study showed that meaning therapy intervention can positively affect disease acceptance and self-awareness of patients undergoing hemodialysis. Since logo-therapy has been effective in other patients and the patients in this study, health officials and managers are recommended to use this intervention method to promote disease acceptance and self-awareness in these patients.

Background: Critical care nurses (CCNs) need to comply with caring behaviors when caring for postoperative cardiac patients. Furthermore, patient satisfaction is a key indicator of nursing care quality. As such, this study focused on these critical issues considering the limited research available on the impact of caring behaviors on postoperative cardiac patient satisfaction. Aim: To evaluate the impact of implementing a nurse caring behavior (NCB) protocol on postoperative cardiac patient satisfaction. Design: A randomized controlled trial with two parallel groups design was followed. Setting: The study was conducted at a cardiac surgery intensive care unit in the
