Sponsor's own description

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a major and rapidly growing cardiac disease characterized by irregular heart rhythm. Living with AF can lead to stress, anxiety and depression for both patients and their families with increased risk of lost working days, hospitalization, and worsening of the disease. However, family-focused nursing has shown to capture the family's feelings and this could change the negative circle into a positive circle. The study aim is to examine how families experience living with a family member with AF and if family involvement through a family focused nursing intervention and group education can improve quality of life for AF patients. Family unit interviews, a study with focus group interviews with family members, and a randomized fidelity study evaluating the effect of the family focused nursing intervention will provide evidence-based knowledge on how to implement family focused nursing into care of patients with AF.
