description | Abstract Aims To explore the experiences and needs of patients on the endovascular therapy pathway. Design A qualitative design using a phenomenological–hermeneutic approach. Methods Semi‐structured interviews and participant observations were carried out. Data were collected from April 2016–January 2017. Data were analysed using Ricoeur's theory of interpretation, capturing meaning and ensuring comprehensive understanding. The Consolidated Criteria for Reporting Qualitative Research checklist was used as a guideline. Results The findings of this study show that the impact of stroke goes far beyond physical disability. During the structural analysis, four themes were identified: (1) Acute admission to a stroke unit – an overwhelming and blurred experience. (2) Being helpless and next to yourself. (3) The important care when you worry about dying. (4) Poststroke feelings of loneliness and uncertainty. |
