| Abstrakt: | Aim: Examine frameworks of myth in the theory and treatment of sequalae of intimate and interpersonal traumas, often seen and experienced by practicing nurses. Design: A discursive narrative review using a trauma-informed lens. Methods: Review of existing frameworks using myth to understand or treat trauma. Due to limited literature from 1945 to 2023, a strategy akin to snowball sampling was used: exploration of source references, an unstructured interview, and a synthesis of existing approaches to interpersonal and intimate trauma. Results: Effective treatments for post-traumatic stress disorder exist, but reach is limited. Nursing is under-represented in the existing literature on myth and trauma, which does not sufficiently include intimate and interpersonal traumas. Conclusion: Encounters with myths encourage healing from interpersonal violence by making clear connections to universal themes while engaging intellect and emotions. Implications for the Profession and/or Patient Care: Encounters with myths could help to mitigate trauma sequalae. Nurses are positioned to develop and test evidence-based, highly flexible, patient-centred interventions using myth. Impact: • Identified gap: research using myth to address intimate and interpersonal violence. • Under-studied intervention: a few works suggest myth encounters benefit combat trauma survivors. • All nurses encounter individuals with trauma histories. Myths may build empathy and efficacy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
