Abstract

Aim: The study aimed to explain the acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients' perception of the nurse's healing presence in their comfort in the critical care unit. Design: This descriptive qualitative study was conducted from December 2020 to September 2021. Methods: Twenty-seven ACS patients were purposively selected from a cardiovascular university Hospital, Iran. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews (45–60 min). Data analysis was performed based on the contractual content analysis method of Graneheim and Lundman. Results: In the data analysis, the main theme ‘nurses' healing presence’ includes two categories: ‘Nurse–patient communication’ with two subcategories and the category ‘Compassionate care’ with three subcategories. © 2023 The Authors.
