安宁疗护视域下中华传统文化特色优逝概念分析OACSTPCD

Focusing on the field of palliative care,the Rodgers evolutionary concept analysis method was used to analyze the literature related to good death in the context of Chinese culture.The development history and application,definition and characteristics,influencing factors and their impacts,measuring indicators and tools of the concept of good death were elaborated,and further discussions were conducted.Good death refers to an individual's peaceful and painless journey towards death,without subjective pain or concern,and calmness under the premise of sufficient longevity,while receiving care and companionship during the process of death from family,especially children and grandchildren,as well as achieving moral fulfilment and transcendence.The characteristics of good death in the context of Chinese traditional culture include the indirect expression of physical and mental pain being"understood"and properly handled,the construction of dying dignity based on virtue rather than autonomy,the emphasis on filial piety and emotional connections in the family,making after-death arrangements and realizing intergenerational inheritance,as well as the emphasis on achieving the integrity of life at the moment of death,which have distinct Chinese cultural characteristics.In the future,the connotation and extension of the concept of good death should be further explored,so as to assist in the development of localized theory and practice systems of good death.
