“…Meleis’ transition theory aims to provide researchers with a clearer understanding of the complex transition process of study subjects, identify patient needs and potential risks, and develop interventions to facilitate smooth transitions; this theory mainly includes the nature of the transition, the conditions of the transition, response patterns, and nursing intervention [ 8 ]. Meleis’ transition theory has mainly been applied to nursing education transitions [ 9 ], caregiver role transitions [ 10 ], nurse position changes [ 11 ] and other fields. Elliott M [ 12 ] et al conducted qualitative interviews with parents of children with precardiac disease and used Meleis’ transition theory framework to guide the formulation of interview questions and analysis of the results with the goal of obtaining insights into caregivers' experiences of transition and providing theoretical support for interventions that can be implemented by patients themselves, caregivers, and society.…”

Eyimaya [ 10 ] et al explored the characteristics of transition among menopausal women and used Meleis’ transition theory as a framework. These authors explored in depth the nature of the transition, the conditions of the transition, response patterns, and corresponding nursing interventions associated with this population as a way to reduce the severity and negative impacts of menopausal symptoms in women.…”

Background Frail elderly patients experience physiological function and reserve depletion, leading to imbalances in their internal environment, which increases the risk of coronary heart disease recurrence and malnutrition. However, the majority of these patients, who primarily have a low level of education and lack self-management skills, face difficulties actively dealing with obstacles during the transition period after their discharge from hospitalization. Therefore, it is necessary to understand and discuss in depth the nutrition management experience of discharged elderly patients with coronary heart disease and frailty (ages 65-80 years old) and to analyze the promoting and hindering factors that affect scientific diet behavior during the discharge transition period. Methods Fifteen elderly patients with coronary heart disease and frailty who had been discharged from the hospital for 6 months were interviewed using a semistructured method. The directed content analysis approach to descriptive research was used to extract topics from the interview content. Results All participants discussed the problems in health nutrition management experience of discharged. Five topics and ten subtopics were extracted, such as ①Weak perceptions and behaviors towards healthy eating (personal habit solidification, negative attitudes towards nutrition management), ②Lack of objective factors for independently adjusting dietary conditions (reliance on subjective feelings, times of appetite change), ③Personal hindrance factors (memory impairment, deficiencies in self-nutrition management), ④Expected external support (assistance care support, ways to obtain nutritional information), ⑤Lack of continuous nutrition management (interruption of professional guidance, avoidance of medical treatment behavior). Conclusions Nutrition management after discharge places a burden on elderly patients with coronary heart disease and frailty. According to the patients' physical conditions, we should develop a diet support system that is coordinated by individuals, families and society.

“…Transitions are covered by the profession of nursing when they are correlated to health or illness, or when reactions to the transition take place in health-related behaviors (Chick & Meleis, 2010). Nursing approaches play a role as facilitating individuals to learn new skills related to the health and disease process (Eyimaya & Tezel, 2021).…”

This study aimed to determine how the nursing approach based on Meleis’s transition theory affects the self-management and adjustment to the illness among newly diagnosed diabetic patients. The study was conducted as one-group and pretest-posttest quasi-experimental design. The data were collected using the Introductory Questionnaire, the Diabetes Self-Management Questionnaire (DSMQ), and the Psychosocial Adjustment to Illness Scale–Self Report (PAIS-SR). It was determined that there was a positive increase in the total score of the DSMQ after the intervention, and a positive decrease in the total score of the PAIS-SR, and the difference between the scores were statistically significant ( p < .05).

“…Es de anotar que los estudios de Meléis además evidencian que las transiciones son priorizadas por las mujeres de acuerdo con su contexto y magnitud, como lo demuestra la clásica investigación sobre las inmigrantes coreanas 9 . La teoría de las transiciones también ha demostrado su papel en el mejoramiento de la calidad de vida de las mujeres 10 .…”

Introducción: la menopausia es una etapa, si bien normal, de profundos cambios en la vida de la mujer; la transición hacia la menopausia impone un reto al profesional de enfermería, encaminado a promover la salud, facilitar la transición y apoyar la búsqueda de solución a las necesidades que se presentan. Objetivo: el presente estudio está orientado a comprender los significados de la menopausia en mujeres de Armenia, Quindío, Colombia. Metodología: se utilizó un enfoque cualitativo, fenomenológico e interpretativo desde la teoría de las transiciones de Meléis. Se efectuaron entrevistas a profundidad a seis mujeres de Armenia, previo consentimiento informado, con muestreo intencional, grabación y diario de campo; la información se analizó con apoyo de la base de datos ATLAS.ti, mediante codificación, categorización inductiva, triangulación y contrastación con la literatura. Resultados: se encontró una percepción negativa de la menopausia por sensación de fogajes, desasosiego, depresión y disfunción sexual; para los síntomas recurren a terapias complementarias y medicación, al respecto, algunas refieren una experiencia tranquilizadora y agradable. Urgen redes de acompañamiento en salud para promoción, prevención y apoyo familiar. Las participantes solicitan programas educativos específicos desde edades tempranas. Discusión: los resultados coinciden con la literatura en cuanto a la experiencia de las participantes y la necesidad de apoyo y orientación. Desde la teoría de Meléis, la transición es de desarrollo, organizacional, con patrones múltiples, simultáneos y relacionados. La experiencia fue sentida y vivida negativamente, se necesitan espacios de análisis, reflexión y acompañamiento desde edades tempranas, para deconstruir el concepto de menopausia y climaterio como problema de salud, y abordarlo como evento vital y de renacimiento, como apertura a una nueva forma de vivir, con estilos de vida saludables. Conclusiones: se concluye que la menopausia es percibida y experimentada como una etapa de ansiedad, desasosiego, tristeza y desesperanza, por el poco acompañamiento, deficiente educación y preparación de la mujer; las mujeres adultas “menopaúsicas” son poco reconocidas, rechazadas, y muchas veces solo toleradas por personas cercanas. Urgen redes de acompañamiento en salud.
