The aim of this study was to report the results of a literature review of empirical studies on trust within the nurse–patient relationship.

The context of most quantitative studies was nurse caring behaviours, whereas most qualitative studies focused on trust in the nurse–patient relationship. Most of the quantitative studies used a descriptive design, while qualitative (...) |
