The Needs of Patients Undergoing Dialysis Treatment.
 HORNOVÁ, Klára
This thesis intents on patients with chronic kidney diseases. In the theoretical part I sum up basic informations about kidney failure which is a state when kidneys stop to secrete waste ingredients from the body. Then I describe common treatment methods which are hemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis and transplantation. Nevertheless, the most important is to diagnostic the disease at the early stage and start the therapy as soon as possible. This part of thesis also describes physiological, psychical and social needs of the patient. The nursing staff has to know about all these needs which are connected, therefore neglecting one part may influence the others in a negative way. On the other hand, when all needs are satisfied the patient feels comfortable and the therapy can be successfull. When we get understand the specific needs of every single patient the quality of nursing care enhance radically. The practical part of the thesis explores all the needs through half-structured interviews with nine patients under hemodialysis treatment. We may sum up the outcome briefly as follows: the most important for the patient is the painless state, enough sleep and rest and sufficient fluid intake security. The psychical support is important no less. Unsatisfying these needs may lead to frustruation and deprivation of the patient. On the contrary, satisfaction makes him contented and peaceful and motivates him for getting cured. This thesis may help people with recent diagnosis of chronic kidney disfunction and also people who are already set in dialysis therapy to get more informations. The research may be a source of informations also for students and nurses in practice as well. Hopefully may lead to understanding the needs and limitations of the patients under dialysis treatment and thus to provision them a better care.
