Although the balance between organ donation and transplantation is out of balance everywhere, it is particularly notable in Japan. It was necessary to clarify nurses' recognition in organ transplantation and required treatment, especially since brain death organ donation is rare. In order to increase the quality of care, this study set out to define the role of nurses in organ transplantation nursing, as well as the necessary support for nurses and care for patients' families.
Over the course of two months in 2019, we performed this study in Western
Japan. To find out about their perspectives on nursing, the care that families
must provide, and the support that nurses need, a researcher conducted
semi-qualitative interviews with nurses who work with organ transplant
patients.
Many nurses struggled with ethical issues and felt unqualified to care for their
family. Even if some nurses had issues with their own religious or
philosophical convictions, they were responsible in the way they cared for
patients or their families. The practise of care that takes into account the
sentiments of families, support for decision-making, and care that enables
families to live happily after transplantation were judged by nurses to be key
forms of care. Nurses needed more employees, more training in transplantation,
a chance to discuss difficult situations, and mental health support. Nurses
sensed a lack of resources for family care or problems while being aware of the
requirement of decision-making. Education regarding transplantation, including
family care and management of dilemma resolution or mental health may be used to
encourage high-quality nursing and organ donation or transplantation be
required.
