Sumario: | AIM: This study aimed to examine the life satisfaction and difficulties experienced by the family members of individuals with thalassemia. DESIGN: This study design is mix‐method research. This research adheres to the COREQ guidelines and checklist. METHODS: The research was conducted in the Blood Diseases Polyclinic of a state hospital in a Mediterranean city in Turkey between February 2022 and April 2022. RESULTS: The mean life satisfaction scale score was 11.18 ± 5.13, and a negative correlation was found between the mother's age and life satisfaction score (r = −0.438; p = 0.042, p < 0.05). Qualitative analysis of the experiences of the family members of individuals with thalassemia yielded 10 themes. |
