Quality of Patient Education in the Home Parenteral Nutrition Programme
Koťátková, Michaela ; Tomová, Šárka (advisor) ; Hromádková, Jaroslava (referee)
The bachelor thesis deals with the quality of education of clients who were included in the home parenteral nutrition program. The thesis is divided into the theoretical and empirical parts. Indications, contraindications, and history of home parenteral nutrition are described in theoretical part. Also, its division by types and the most often used vascular entrances. The characteristics of education in nursing, the educational process, its goals, evaluation, and method of creating documentation for the implementation of all phases of the educational process are also described. The method of the survey investigation is described in the empirical part. It was conducted by using of a quantitative method by distributing non-standardized questionnaires to clients who have already been educated or will be educated during the survey. The purpose of this thesis is to gain the knowledge about how clients perceive the way of education conducted at our workplace, what information they consider to be insufficient, missing, or incomprehensible, and on what information or educational materials they would still like to have. Based on the information obtained in this way, the comprehensive information brochure will be created, to serve clients a clear and understandable whole about home parenteral nutrition. And,...
Long-term vascular access for home parenteral nutrition and their complications
Králová, Petra ; Novák, František (advisor) ; Hocková, Jana (referee)
Home parenteral nutrition is a treatment enabling the patients with intestinal failure to live their lifes in their home environment. The possibility to commence and practise home parenteral nutrition requires not only a medical and pharmaceutical team, but also paramedical staff, which plays a signifiant part mainly in education of the patient and his close relatives. The study's aim was to characterize the patients involved in the home parenteral nutrition programme (HPN) and catheters used for this purpose and as well to analyze complication rate of the long term catheters related to their use and subsequent care. Into the retrospective quantitative study were included patiens treated with home parenteral nutrition since january 2009 to september 2015 within one nutrition care center. Data collection was realized by research in medical documentation. Altogether 135 patients were included in the study (93 female and 42 male), who have hade 227 catheters inserted in total (114 portcatheters, 73 Broviac catheters and 40 PICC) with 86 187 catheter days. The most frequent basic disease was cancer (36%) and the most prevalent indication to HPN was a short bowel syndrome (50%). Overall complication rate was 2,12/1000 catheter days (1,62 catheter sepsis, identically local infections and thrombotic...
The influence of nursing procedures on the incidence of vascular access complications during home parenteral nutrition
Chalušová, Petra ; Meisnerová, Eva (advisor) ; Pražáková, Zuzana (referee)
(EN) Home parenteral nutrition (DPV) has become a routine part of patients care whose oral intake is reduced or completely eliminated. An integral part of the application of DPV is also the permanent or temporary need for functioning vascular access. Catheter complications negatively affect the quality of life, morbidity and in case of catheter sepsis the patient mortality. In addition it also brings increased costs for therapy and the need for patients re-hospitalization. The main objective of our study is to analyze catheter-related complications and to determine whether use of catheter plugs like TauroLock and TauroLock Hep and Tegaderm CHG antimicrobial dressing affect the incidence of catheter complications with DPV, and whether the incidence of complications is affected by a person who treated the catheter. The secondary objective is to characterize patients with served DPV and types of catheter used for this purpose.The method chosen is a retrospective observational cohort study. The study contains 52 patients with 72 catheters (39 Broviac, 18 PICC and 15 ports). The monitored number of catheter- days in total was 33,875. We conclude that the use TauroLock Hep is effective in the prevention of catheter complications and significantly reduces the overall incidence of all complications (p =...
