Using Sandelowski and Barroso's Meta-Synthesis Method in Advancing Qualitative Evidence.
The purpose of this article was to iteratively account for and discuss the handling of methodological challenges in two qualitative research syntheses concerning patients’ experiences of hospital transition. We applied Sandelowski and Barroso’s guidelines for synthesizing qualitative research, and to our knowledge, this is the first time researchers discuss their methodological steps. In the process, we identified a need for prolonged discussions to determine mutual understandings of the methodology. We discussed how to identify the appropriate qualitative research literature and how to best conduct exhaustive literature searches on our target phenomena. Another finding concerned our statu…

Physical activity experiences of children and adolescents with asthma: a qualitative systematic review protocol
Objective: The objective of the review is to synthesize existing knowledge about experiences of children andadolescents with asthma related to participation in, or limitation of, physical activity.Introduction: Limitations of physical activity, expressed as a barrier of bodily movement, may relate to physiologicalrestraints, as well as emotional and social delimitation, in children and adolescents with asthma. Participation inphysical activity is related to management of asthma and is also important for social inclusion. Through childhoodand adolescence, physical activity enhances physical, cognitive, and social development, and a dose-responserelationship between physical activity and seve…
Qualitative Longitudinal Research in Health Research: A Method Study
Abstract Background Qualitative longitudinal research (QLR) comprises qualitative studies, with repeated data collection, that focus on the temporality (e.g., time and change) of a phenomenon. The use of QLR is increasing in health research since many topics within health involve change (e.g., progressive illness, rehabilitation). A method study can provide an insightful understanding of the use, trends and variations within this approach. The aim of this study was to map how QLR articles within the existing health research literature are designed to capture aspects of time and/or change. Methods This method study used an adapted scoping review design. Articles were eligible if they were wr…
Significant others’ experience of hospitalized patients’ transfer to home: A systematic review and meta-synthesis
Abstract Background Significant others are individuals representing family members or neighbors, friends, colleagues or members of the same household, who act as relatives or surrogates. Significant others play an important role when patients are transferred or discharged after hospitalization. Objective The objective of this review is to identify, appraise and synthesize the best available evidence exploring significant others’ experiences of the discharge or transfer of adult patients after hospitalization. Methods A qualitative comprehensive systematic review and meta aggregation. Types of participants Participants of this review are the ‘significant other(s); persons who are important o…

A qualitative meta-synthesis of patients' experiences of intra- and inter-hospital transitions
Aim. To aggregate, interpret and synthesize findings from qualitative studies of patients’ experiences on being transferred/in transition from one hospital to another or from one ward to another. Background. Studies about patients’ experiences of transfer focused on concepts such as transfer stress, transfer anxiety, and translocation syndrome; however, a metasynthesis on experiences of transition across different patient populations was lacking. Design. The meta-synthesis approach was based on the guidelines by Sandelowski and Barroso. Data source. Six electronic databases were searched for articles published between the years 1999-2011, based on the target phenomenon: patients’ experience…

Relationship between physical activity level and psychosocial and socioeconomic factors and issues in children and adolescents with asthma:a scoping review
Background: Asthma is a heterogeneous chronic airway disease which may reduce capability for physical activity. In healthy peers, physical activity is influenced by psychosocial and socioeconomic factors. Knowledge about the role of these factors has not been mapped in children and adolescents with asthma. Objective: The main objective of this scoping review was to identify psychosocial and socioeconomic factors associated with physical activity level in children and adolescents with asthma in the literature. The specific objectives were to map the instruments used to measure these factors, report on the construction and validation of these instruments, map psychosocial and socioeconomic is…
Being cross pressured-parents’ experiences of the transfer from paediatric to adult care services for their young people with long term conditions: A systematic review and qualitative research synthesis
BACKGROUND: Family members of young people (13-24 years) with long-term conditions tend to experience multiple challenges when their children transfer from paediatric to adult care, as do the patients themselves.OBJECTIVES: To identify, interpret and theoretically conceptualise the meaning of parents' experiences of the transfer from paediatric to adult care of their young people with long-term conditions.DESIGN: A qualitative research synthesis.DATA SOURCES: We obtained articles from Medline, CINAHL, PsycINFO, EMBASE, Scopus, and Web of Science. Unpublished theses and dissertations were searched for using Google Scholar, Mednar, and ProQuest Dissertations and Theses.REVIEW METHODS: Based o…

Parents' experiences of neonatal transfer. A meta-study of qualitative research 2000-2017.
Transfers of critically ill neonates are frequent phenomena. Even though parents’ participation is regarded as crucial in neonatal care, a transfer often means that parents and neonates are separated. A systematic review of the parents’ experiences of neonatal transfer is lacking. This paper describes a meta-study addressing qualitative research about parents’ experiences of neonatal transfer. Through deconstruction and reflections of theories, methods and empirical data, the aim was to achieve a deeper understanding of theoretical, empirical, contextual, historical and methodological issues of qualitative studies concerning parents’ experiences of neonatal transfer over the course of this …
