A client with non specific intestinal inflammations in community care
DOLEŽALOVÁ, Jana
Non specific intestinal inflammations, including Crohn´s disease and ulcerous colitis, belong to so called civilization diseases. Their cause is not completely clear. There is a common factor of both the diseases, that they attack mainly young people between 20 and 30 years of age. These diseases affect mainly physical, but also mental and social aspects of client´s lives. A client needs to have sufficient information on his/her disease and its treatment to be able to cooperate with medical staff actively and thus contribute to improvement of his/her health condition. A nurse plays an important role here as well. Nurse are those who are in permanent contact with a patient and patiens often ask them questions they would be embarrassed to ask a physician. Support of family and friends is also of great importace. Patient organizations that support and help patiens suffering from non specific intestine inflammations and also support their family members may also play an important role. The aim of the bachelor thesis is to find out how patiens with non specific intestine inflammations may benefit from patient associations, to find out how nurses participate in keeping the clients informed and to compile material for clients with non specific intestine inflammations. The qualitative research method was used in the practical part of the thesis. Data collection was performed by means of a semi-structured interwiew. The research sample consisted of selected clients with non specific intestine inflammations, members of IBD CROCODILE Club České Budějovice, participants of seminars of CroCus Patient Club České Budějovice and a civil association of patiens with idiopathic intestine inflammations in Prague. Case studies were elaborated upon interviews with the indiviual respondents. The case studies formed a base for categorization tables in which the most important research results were summarized. Apart from the set goals the research results showed problems the patiens and thein families have to cope with on daily basis. The disease has the most serious impact on their lives in the fields of nourishment, physical activities and travelling. The elaborated information material may be used in seminars of patient organizations, but also in classes at medical school. The research result might be published at specialized lectures and conferences.
