Abstract

Background Cancer in all its forms and stages is accompanied by a range of emotional, social and spiritual impacts. Pharmacological interventions have limited success with these issues and a range of interventions are needed to support people with a cancer diagnosis. We seek to understand the benefits of participatory performance-based arts activities, such as music, singing, drama and dance, in the care of people with cancer. We use the emerging Energy Restoration Framework, based on Kaplan’s Attention Restoration Theory to explore the potentially energy-enhancing aspects of participation in such activities.

Methods An integrative review is used to explore existing research on the use of participatory performance-based arts in cancer care. Existing research is summarized and critically appraised. Results are analysed thematically and mapped to the attributes of the Energy Restoration Framework.

Results Eight studies (four qualitative, three quantitative and one mixed-methods study) published between 2001 and 2016 met the search criteria. Findings from the thematic analysis resonated with the attributes of the Energy Restoration Framework.

Conclusions Research on the topic is very limited. When examined through the lens of the Energy Restoration Framework, the literature hints at the potential value of participatory performance-based arts activities for enhancing energy in the cancer care context.

 抽象的

背景所有形式和阶段的癌症都会伴随着一系列情感、社会和精神影响。药物干预在解决这些问题上效果有限，需要采取一系列干预措施来支持癌症诊断患者。我们寻求了解参与性表演艺术活动（例如音乐、歌唱、戏剧和舞蹈）对癌症患者护理的好处。我们使用基于卡普兰注意力恢复理论的新兴能量恢复框架来探索参与此类活动的潜在能量增强方面。

方法采用综合综述来探索关于在癌症护理中使用参与式表演艺术的现有研究。对现有研究进行了总结和批判性评价。结果按主题进行分析，并映射到能源恢复框架的属性。

结果2001 年至 2016 年间发表的八项研究（四项定性研究、三项定量研究和一项混合方法研究）符合检索标准。主题分析的结果与能源恢复框架的属性产生了共鸣。

结论关于该主题的研究非常有限。当通过能量恢复框架的视角进行审视时，文献暗示了参与性表演艺术活动对于增强癌症护理背景下的能量的潜在价值。
