Post⁃traumatic growth journey of patients with fulminant myocarditis supported by extracorporeal membrane oxygenation: a qualitative study
Abstract
ObjectiveTo explore the post⁃traumatic growth journey of patients with fulminant myocarditis supported by extracorporeal membrane oxygenation(ECMO),and to provide references for developing targeted nursing intervention strategies.MethodsUsing purposive sampling,semi⁃structured interviews were conducted with 16 patients with ECMO⁃supported fulminant myocarditis admitted to the intensive care unit of a tertiary hospital in Zhengzhou from January 2023 to January 2025.Interview data were analyzed based on interpretative phenomenological analysis.ResultsThe post⁃traumatic growth journey of ECMO⁃supported fulminant myocarditis patients comprised three sequential and dynamically evolving phases:emotion⁃dominated period,cognitive integration period,and value reconstruction period.ConclusionPost⁃traumatic growth in ECMO⁃supported fulminant myocarditis patients is a complex and continuously elevating process.Healthcare providers should attend to patients' positive psychological experiences at different phases and deliver staged,individualized psychological support to facilitate their post⁃traumatic growth.
