Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To systematically retrieve, critique, and synthesize patients’ human responses about living with infertility and identify possible related nursing diagnoses according to NANDA-I. METHODS: Systematic review of qualitative nursing studies. FINDINGS: A total of 39 papers were included, 49 human responses, and 77 potential infertility-related nursing diagnoses were identified across three themes. Main foci matching nursing diagnosis were related to spiritual well-being, spiritual distress, and resilience. CONCLUSIONS: Patients respond to infertility in a variety of ways and this raises the need for a more effective, holistic, and accurate nursing diagnosis. IMPLICATIONS FOR PRACTICE: The accuracy of the nursing diagnosis is critical in raising the quality of the nursing process and in meeting infertile patients’ circumstances and care expectations.
