The issues of patient´s self-sufficient after cerebrovascular accident at ward of subsequent care
MACHKOVÁ, Marcela
Cerebrovascular accident is a serious destructive condition with suddenly formed infliciton of cerebral blood vessel. There might appear obstruction and taper of them or defect on wholeness of vascular wall which result into hemorrhage to brain tissue. Sings of this condition might be termporary with physical and psychical changes or fatal which end up with serious paralysis, unconsciousness or even death of individual. Cerebrovascular accident problematics is currently a big challenge for the entire society, because progressiveness of European society´s aging is likely to bring increase in total amount of this disease´s causes. The first important step in problematics of the disease is to reduce the risk of stroke by consistent prevention; general lifestyle changes; blood pressure controls and treatment; lipid, coagulation factor and heart disease observation and compensation. The second step, when speaking about already formed disease, is to start well-timed and complex therapy which provides the patient with distinctly higher chance of better final clinical status without permanent harm. After overcoming the acute phase in neurology department the patient carries on with another therapy acorrding to seriousness of his/her condition in rehabilitation or aftercare department. Therapeutic, nursing and rehabilitation care should be set to contain all aspects of lost self-sufficiency encouragement and should be oriented mainly on person who has, even after stroke, his/her own needs, motivations, leisure time activities and skills. The bachelor thesis starts with medical part which describes brain anatomy, deals with epidemiology and stroke history. More detailted stroke characteristics and disease itself are defined by etiology, clinical picture, diagnostics and treatment. This part is then ended up with stroke consequences, factors influecing patient´s recovery, patient´s needs and self-sufficiency after stroke. Multidisciplinary team and aftercare deparment create an independent chapter and after this starts a new chapter interested in the role of nurse and needed nursing interventions, evaluation techniques during basic needs saturation of patients after stroke. Therapeutic rehabilitation creates almost the last important part of the bachelor thesis, on which depend gradual recovery and patient´s future life quality after this desease. The recovery part includes physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech-language pathology, neuropsychology, spa treatment and prosthetic security of patient. Then, the whole thesis is ended up with patient´s preparation on release into home environment. The first set aim is to find out patient´s needs to reach the maximal functional independence and self-sufficiency after stroke according to previously studied sources. The second aim is to find out the nurse´s role in the encouragement of patient´s self-sufficiency and the third aim is to find out nursing interventions in the encouragement of patient´s self-sufficiency after stroke according to previously studied sources. The whole bachelor thesis is mainly taken as theoretical. It tries to insight into problematics of all needs, self-sufficiency encouragement and patient´s maximal functional independence after stroke according to previsously studied sources and information obtained from consultants, physiotherapists and general nurses. Then, the thesis deals with the role of nurse and nursing interventions in patient´s self- sufficiency encouragement on aftercare department to satisfy his/her essential needs of life without someone else´s help after the disease. After a gradual improvement of functional disability, the whole life quality and the independence of patient, it is necessary to follow all nursing, medical and rehabilitation procedures very carefully without their neglect with a sufficient amount of medical staff and specialized doctors.
