Family Presence During Resuscitation of Hospitalized Patients

1. Purpose

1.1. To understand the patients perception (Samples- Twibell, Craig, Siela, Simmonds, & Thomas, 2015) (Bradley, Keithline, Petrocelli, Scanlon, & Parkosewich, 2017)

1.2. To understand the families perception (Leske, McAndrew, Brasel, & Feetham, 2017)

1.3. To understand health care members perception (Mureau-Haines et al., 2017) (Kosowan & Jensen, 2011) (Tudor, Berger, Polivka, Chlebowy, & Thomas, 2014)

2. Methods

2.1. Cross-Sectional Design (Mureau-Haines et al., 2017) (Kosowan & Jensen, 2011) (Tudor, Berger, Polivka, Chlebowy, & Thomas, 2014) (Leske, McAndrew, Brasel, & Feetham, 2017) (Samples- Twibell, Craig, Siela, Simmonds, & Thomas, 2015) (Bradley, Keithline, Petrocelli, Scanlon, & Parkosewich, 2017)

2.2. Quantitative Research (Tudor, Berger, Polivka, Chlebowy, & Thomas, 2014) (Leske, McAndrew, Brasel, & Feetham, 2017) (Kosowan & Jensen, 2011) (Mureau-Haines et al., 2017)

2.3. Utilized Surveys (Mureau-Haines et al., 2017) (Kosowan & Jensen, 2011) (Tudor, Berger, Polivka, Chlebowy, & Thomas, 2014) (Leske, McAndrew, Brasel, & Feetham, 2017) (Bradley, Keithline, Petrocelli, Scanlon, & Parkosewich, 2017)

2.4. Utilized SPSS Data Analysis Software (Kosowan & Jensen, 2011) (Tudor, Berger, Polivka, Chlebowy, & Thomas, 2014) (Leske, McAndrew, Brasel, & Feetham, 2017) (Bradley, Keithline, Petrocelli, Scanlon, & Parkosewich, 2017)

2.5. Study was Approved by Review Boards and Consent was obtained (Kosowan & Jensen, 2011) (Tudor, Berger, Polivka, Chlebowy, & Thomas, 2014) (Leske, McAndrew, Brasel, & Feetham, 2017) (Samples- Twibell, Craig, Siela, Simmonds, & Thomas, 2015) (Bradley, Keithline, Petrocelli, Scanlon, & Parkosewich, 2017)

3. Findings

3.1. Families provide support and comfort to the patient. Patients should be allowed to decide if they would like to have family in the room during CPR. (Mureau-Haines et al., 2017) (Kosowan & Jensen, 2011) (Tudor, Berger, Polivka, Chlebowy, & Thomas, 2014) (Leske, McAndrew, Brasel, & Feetham, 2017) (Samples- Twibell, Craig, Siela, Simmonds, & Thomas, 2015) (Bradley, Keithline, Petrocelli, Scanlon, & Parkosewich, 2017)

4. Journal
