CORREIA, Tânia Sofia Pereira. Perceptions, attitudes and emotions of the patients subjected to involuntary psychiatric hospitalization: Integrative review. Revista Portuguesa de Enfermagem de Saúde Mental [online]. 2018, n.20, pp.81-90. ISSN 1647-2160. https://doi.org/10.19131/rpesm.0230.
BACKGROUND: Involuntary hospitalization in Psychiatry is one of the most challenging themes in this specialty due to the ethical issues involved. The experience of being under involuntary care, namely in compulsory hospitalization, is characterized by negative feelings in the face of loss of freedom and autonomy. AIM: To investigate the perceptions, attitudes and emotions of the patients that are admitted into involuntary hospitalization. METHODS: Integrative literature review through data search on the EBSCO database and on the Trip Database, in the first two weeks of January 2018, whose inclusion criteria were: to be available in full text, quantitative, qualitative and / or literature reviews, in the Portuguese, English and Spanish languages, attitudes and emotions of patients hospitalized compulsively in psychiatry. RESULTS: We found eight articles that met the study's objective, including a literature review, four observational studies, a controlled trial, a qualitative study and a scale validation study. CONCLUSIONS: Perceptions, attitudes and emotions that were mostly negative, but also positive and ambivalent, were identified in view of the experience of compulsive hospitalization. It is concluded that these experiences can have consequences beyond hospitalization and that there are practices that must be improved in order to improve the experience of the patient subject to compulsory hospitalization.
