Violence towards formal and informal caregivers is a frequently occurring and complex international hazard in healthcare that has a negative impact on the physical and psychological health states of caregivers. However, little is known about the prevalence and type of violence towards formal and informal caregivers by care recipients in the home care settings. The aim of this review is to obtain insight into the prevalence of violence by home care recipients against formal and informal caregivers in home care settings and the types and consequences of violence. A systematic review was conducted between March and May 2023 using the PubMed, EMBASE, CINAHL, and PsycINFO databases. A methodological quality appraisal was conducted using the Mixed Methods Appraisal Tool (MMAT). Data collection was performed until May 2023. Out of 1087 screened articles, a total of 10 full texts were included after the screening process. Findings demonstrate that workplace violence is an understudied area of research. The few studies found in this review showed high prevalence rates of violence with risk for physical and mental injuries for formal caregivers. No information at all on violence against informal caregivers was available. Strategies for prevention and intervention against violence in the home care setting must be developed. To develop strategies, it is important to have more insight in the prevalence and types of violence. It is also important to explore violence against informal caregivers in research. Violence towards formal caregivers in home care settings is a common risk that negatively impacts the health status of caregivers.

针对正式和非正式护理人员的暴力行为及其在家庭护理环境中的后果：系统性混合研究综述

针对正式和非正式护理人员的暴力是医疗保健领域经常发生且复杂的国际危害，对护理人员的身心健康状况产生负面影响。然而，人们对家庭护理机构中的护理接受者针对正式和非正式护理人员的暴力行为的普遍性和类型知之甚少。本次审查的目的是深入了解家庭护理接受者针对家庭护理环境中正式和非正式护理人员的暴力行为的普遍程度以及暴力的类型和后果。 2023 年 3 月至 5 月期间，使用 PubMed、EMBASE、CINAHL 和 PsycINFO 数据库进行了系统评价。使用混合方法评估工具（MMAT）进行方法学质量评估。数据收集持续到2023年5月。在筛选的1087篇文章中，筛选后总共包含了10篇全文。调查结果表明，工作场所暴力是一个尚未得到充分研究的领域。本次综述中发现的少数研究表明，暴力行为发生率很高，对正式护理人员来说存在身体和精神伤害的风险。根本没有关于针对非正式护理人员的暴力行为的信息。必须制定预防和干预家庭护理环境中暴力的策略。为了制定战略，重要的是要更深入地了解暴力的普遍程度和类型。在研究中探讨针对非正式护理人员的暴力行为也很重要。家庭护理环境中针对正式护理人员的暴力是一种常见风险，会对护理人员的健康状况产生负面影响。
