to stress-related moral problems, described as moral distressor stress of conscience, characterized by
frustration and guilt with a risk of depersonalization, emotional exhaustion and burn-out.
In some people, a troubled conscience may become destructive. For others, it serves as a guardian,
pointing up the ethical problem and calling for changes. Childress writes that conscience indicates the
meaning of the ethical conflict, by making us conscious that we act according to our moral convictions.
Failing to follow our moral conviction can give us a troubled conscience followed by feelings of guilt,
shame and alienation. In contrast, acting in accordance with our conscience preserves a feeling of whole-
ness and integrity of self.In this context, we consider that a troubled conscience is the result of a merger
of the life-world of the nurse with the life-world of the patient. By asking the professionals to narrate an
ethically difficult situation that gave rise to a troubled conscience, we may reveal the underlying barriers
for communicating value conflicts among RNs and physicians and hopefully work out strategies to help
professionals to improve care for this vulnerable group of patients. The aim of the study was therefore to
illuminate RNs’ experiences of being in ethically difficult situations in dialysis care, giving rise to a
troubled conscience.
