Caring Partnership: A Concept Analysis With Newman's Theoretical Perspective.

This is a concept analysis, not a clinical trial or systematic review of treatment effects. It did not measure patient outcomes. The included articles were only in English or Korean and covered 1963 to 2023, so relevant work in other languages or sources may be missing. The attributes and cases were derived through researchers' interpretation and clinical backgrounds, so they are not tested definitions. No measurement tool specifically assesses caring partnership, and existing tools cover only similar concepts. The selected studies involved different client groups, such as families, adolescents, elderly persons, patients with wounds or cancer, and nursing students, so the concept is not tied to one patient population.

The authors declared no conflicts of interest. Funding was from Seoul National University's New Faculty Startup Fund and the BK21 Four Project, funded by the Ministry of Education and the National Research Foundation of Korea.

Do not read this as evidence that a caring partnership improves patient outcomes. It is a concept analysis and reports no tested clinical results.
