Volontés de fin de vie des adultes au-delà des outils cliniques et juridiques : protocole de revue de la portée
Contenu principal de l'article
Résumé
Introduction : Les recherches sur les volontés de fin de vie (VFV) se concentrent principalement sur les personnes âgées ou malades, limitant la réflexion à certains moments des trajectoires de vie. Inspiré de Patterson et Hazelwood (2020), cet article propose 4 dimensions des VFV : les soins médicaux, les considérations juridiques, les priorités personnelles et l’épanouissement socio-spirituel. De nombreuses synthèses de connaissances explorent les VFV, mais elles se concentrent principalement sur les 2 premières dimensions, laissant dans l’ombre des aspects pourtant essentiels à une planification de fin de vie centrée sur la personne.
Objectif : Cartographier l’étendue et la nature des connaissances des priorités personnelles et du bien-être socio-spirituel des VFV, afin d’identifier les tendances, les lacunes et les implications pour la recherche et la pratique.
Méthode : Cette revue de la portée suit la méthodologie en 6 étapes de Levac et al. (2010) et interroge plusieurs bases de données scientifiques (CINAHL Complete, Érudit, MEDLINE, PsycINFO, Social Sciences Abstracts, Social Work Abstracts et Web of Science) et de littérature grise (Dissertations & Theses Global et Sociological Abstracts). Les écrits publiés à partir de 2015, en anglais ou en français, seront systématiquement identifiés et sélectionnés selon un processus en double insu indépendant.
Discussion et retombées anticipées : Cette revue de la portée permettra d’identifier les contextes dans lesquels ces 2 dimensions s’opérationnalisent, les méthodologies de recherche utilisées et les lacunes dans l’état des connaissances sur le sujet. Durant la 6e étape de cette revue, l’engagement avec des parties prenantes facilitera la synthèse d’informations critiques afin d’éclairer les pratiques, d’influencer l’élaboration de politiques et d’orienter les recherches futures.
