REVIEW
Measuring therapeutic relationship in the care of patients with haemophilia: A scoping review.
Health Expectations : An International Journal of Public Participation in Health Care and Health Policy 2018 December
OBJECTIVE: We conducted a scoping review of the tools used to measure therapeutic relationship in patients with haemophilia.
BACKGROUND: Haemophilia is an inherited bleeding disorder caused by a deficiency of a clotting factor in the blood. Therapeutic relationship is foundational to the management of patients with chronic diseases like haemophilia. A reliable and valid measurement tool for assessing therapeutic relationship is needed to evaluate the quality of care received by these patients, and to rigorously study the association between therapeutic relationship and the outcomes of treatment.
METHODS: We adopted the Arksey and O'Malley framework for scoping studies. The following electronic databases were searched for studies that measured a construct related to therapeutic relationships in haemophilia care: MEDLINE, EMBASE, CINAHL, PsycINFO and Scopus. We inventoried these studies, identified the measurement tools used, and described each tool by purpose, content, measurement properties and target population. We identified gaps in the current evidence and directions for future research.
RESULTS: There were 253 unique records retrieved in the search, and twenty studies were deemed relevant. Ten measurement tools were identified. None of the tools measured therapeutic relationship as a single entity; however, six tools measured constructs considered part of patient-provider relationship (eg trust, communication, working alliance). There has been little validation testing of these tools in haemophilia patient populations.
CONCLUSIONS: There is a need for a validated tool for measuring therapeutic relationship in the care of patients with haemophilia. This review provides a foundation for future research in this area.
