ABSTRACT

Objective:

To explore the barriers of nutritional care for spouses of elderly patients with stroke, and provide reference for the home nutrition education management program and related interventions to improve the nutritional care quality of elderly spouses.

Methods:

Semi-structured interviews were conducted for spouses of 13 elderly patients with stroke. The Colaizzi 7-step analysis was used for analysis.

Results:

The barriers could be summarized into three generic categories and seven themes. Cognitive factors included poor nutrition cognitive awareness, and weakened self-maintenance. Behavioral factors included poor compliance, improper diet adjustment, and invalid personal response. Environmental factors included delayed social support and limited access to information.

Conclusions:

Paying attention to the barrier factors of nutritional care for spouses of elderly patients with stroke can help us understand the difficulties and problems of spouses, and provide reference for the effective implementation of family nutrition education and management.
