Problems of treating of sicks with the compartment syndrom on crus injuries
WICHTOVÁ, Zdeňka
Compartment syndrome is a syndrome of clinical signs that arise due to the increased blood pressure within a confined space. For some time, this pressure increase is balanced by the flexibility of fascia. But when the mechanism becomes exhausted, the development of ischemia occurs and the compartment syndrome turns up. The treatment is aimed at saving the extremity and the patient. The role of a nurse is to closely observe the patient´s overall condition and clinical symptoms of the compartment syndrome, to carry out auxiliary examinations, to assist in taking the intrafascial pressure in the affected part of the body and to take part in the demanding treatment of the complication. A nurse is in a constant contact with the patient, provides him/her with education and support and notifies the doctor of all alterations in the patient´s condition. The objective of the thesis was to learn if nurses are informed enough on the causation of the compartment syndrome on the crus injury. The other objective was to find out if nurses are familiar with the specifics of the care for patients with the compartment syndrome on the crus injury. Three hypotheses were stated: H I: Nurses have knowledge of causes of the compartment syndrome on the crus injury. This hypothesis was confirmed. H II: Nurses are not able to recognize the onset of the compartment syndrome on the crus injury on due time. This hypothesis was rejected. H III: Nurses have knowledge of specifics of the nursing care in patients with the compartment syndrome on the crus injury. The research was conducted by the quantitative method. The data necessary to achieve the objectives were gathered by the questionnaire method. The research was anonymous and it was voluntary to fill in the questionnaires. The research was conducted in the České Budějovice hospital in the Orthopaedic unit and in the Department of Accident and Plastic Surgery. The findings of the research may be useful to medical staff members in practice or in workshops.
