关于参与癌症护理的医疗保健专业人员对其各自在患者护理途径中的角色的看法的定性研究有限。因此，这项定性研究的目的是记录这些看法。包括患者研究人员在内的多学科团队针对专业人员对结直肠癌护理途径的看法构建了半结构化访谈指南。对来自两家管理结直肠癌患者的法国医院的医疗保健专业人员进行了采访。然后，整个多学科团队对访谈进行了全面转录和分析。访谈了 13 名医疗保健专业人员（六名护士、四名医生、一名心理学家、一名社会工作者和一名秘书）。他们使用丰富的词汇多样性描述了结直肠护理途径，并列出了参与该途径的大量专业人士。提到的人包括在医院内外工作的医疗保健专业人员、家庭成员和非传统医生。不过，他们并没有自发提及这名患者。进一步探讨了他们对转诊医生、全科医生和患者角色的看法。访谈凸显了不同专业人员之间的协调困难，特别是全科医生和医院团队之间的协调困难。这些数据为开发帮助专业人员之间协调的工具提供了有趣的元素。这项初步研究及其参与式设计为结直肠癌患者的护理途径带来了有趣的反思。它将通过创建一个更大的参与性项目继续下去。患者合作伙伴参与了这项研究的所有步骤。这个跨学科项目由三名患者合作伙伴、两名医疗保健专业人员和两名人文社会科学研究人员组成的小组协调。他们对患者对护理途径的看法的了解丰富了从研究设计到结果分析的讨论。© 2024 作者。约翰·威利 (John Wiley) 出版的《健康期望》

Qualitative research on the perceptions of healthcare professionals involved in cancer care about their respective roles in the patient care pathway is limited. Therefore, the aim of this qualitative study was to document these perceptions.A multidisciplinary team that included patient researchers constructed a semi-structured interview guide on the perceptions of the colorectal cancer care pathway by professionals. Interviews were conducted with healthcare professionals from two French hospitals that manage patients with colorectal cancer. Then, the interviews were fully transcribed and analysed by the whole multidisciplinary team.Thirteen healthcare professionals were interviewed (six nurses, four physicians, one psychologist, one social worker and one secretary). They described the colorectal care pathway using a great lexical diversity and listed a significant number of professionals as taking part in this pathway. Among the people mentioned were healthcare professionals working inside and outside the hospital, family members and non-conventional medicine practitioners. However, they did not spontaneously mention the patient. Their views on the role of the referring physician, the general practitioner and the patient were further explored. The interviews highlighted the coordination difficulties among the various professionals, particularly between general practitioners and hospital teams. These data provided interesting elements for developing a tool to help coordination among professionals.This preliminary study, with its participatory design, brings interesting elements of reflection on the care pathway for patients with colorectal cancer. It will continue through the creation of a larger participatory project.Patient partners were included in all steps of this study. This transdisciplinary project was coordinated by a group composed of three patient partners, two healthcare professionals and two humanities and social sciences researchers. Their knowledge of the patient's perspective on the care pathway enriched discussions from the study design to results analysis.© 2024 The Author(s).
