Communication problems of nurses in pacients after stroke
PECKOVÁ, Jana
The bachelor thesis "Problems in nurses´ communication with patients after cerebral vascular accident? deals with the knowledge of nurses in communication with patients with aphasia after an ictus. Right communication belongs to key points of the subsequent treatment of this disease. A cerebral vascular accident ? a stroke - can negatively affect the life of a person affected by the disease. Other negatives symptoms are provoked by acquired disorders of cognitive function. Phatic failure is of a concern in the nurse-patient communication. Patients are not usually able to express themselves properly or understand others. During their hospitalization the role of a nurse is therefore very important. Nurses should be sufficiently educated in communication and to know the specifics of this disease. Compensation aids to facilitate and improve communication with patients after a stroke should also be available and used by nurses. The objective of this thesis was to determine whether nurses follow the correct procedures in communication with patients after a stroke, and to map the most frequent communication problems between nurses and patients after a stroke. The empirical part of this study consisted of quantitative research, using an anonymous questionnaire that was designed for nurses in neurological and internal wards of the hospitals in Příbram, Písek and České Budějovice. The questionnaire contained a total of 24 questions. 107 questionnaires were distributed and the research was processed with 90 questionnaires, i.e. 84% of the original number. Three hypotheses were stated. The first hypothesis assumed that nurses know principles of good communication with patients after a stroke. This hypothesis has been confirmed. The second hypothesis assumed that nurses use aids to improve communication with patients after a stroke. This hypothesis has been confirmed. The third hypothesis assumed that nurses are interested in further upgrading skills in communicating with patients after a stroke. This hypothesis has also been confirmed. The objectives have been met on the basis of confirmed hypotheses. This bachelor thesis can serve as educational material for nurses working with patients with aphasia after a stroke.
