The impact of nephrostomy to the standards of the life of the patient
TÁBORSKÁ, Adéla
This bachelor thesis deals with an issue of the impact of nephrostomy on patient´s standard of life. The bachelor thesis is divided into theoretical and empiric parts. The theoretical part deals with an inserted nephrostomy catheter as well as with a nursing care about patients with an inserted nephrostomy catheter. The theoretical past focuses on how an inserted nephrostomy influences everyday life and which part of it. The empiric part of the bachelor thesis is performed through a qualitative survey which has two aims and four research questions set. The first aim of the survey construction was focused on a possible impact of nephrostomy on patient´s life comfort. This aim is connected with the first research question which investigated how an inserted nephrostomy influences patient´s common daily activities. The second research question surveyed possible changes in patient´s life after inserting nephrostomy. The second set aim dealt with possible problems of nursing care about nephrostomy patients. For reaching the second aim, the third and fourth research questions were set. The third research question deals with patient´s possible problems during nephrostomy nursing. The fourth research question focused on possible complications during nephrostomy nursing. The data for processing the research construction was collected through halfstructured interviews with six patients with a long-term inserted nephrostomy. Obtained data was processed, categorised and assessed. Results of the research construction revealed, among other things, insufficient education of medical personnel in the field of patient´s awareness of inserted nephrostomy. Based on this fact, a recommendation for general and practical nurses was created, which contains the most important information in points, which should a patient obtain from nurses.
