Nursing care of client's HIV-positive.
ŠETELOVÁ, Nikola
Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome has become the whole world pandemic in a short time. It is a virus that is transmitted primarily by blood, breast milk and body fluids, but by means of normal contact with an infected a transfer will not occur if the person does not behave dangerously. The clinical picture of this virus has a very large range of expressions, it depends on what stage is the infected in. In the first few weeks the infected may suffer of temperature, nausea, joint pain. After that infection passes into the asymptomatic period. In the third period of the infection there comes persistent generalized lymphadenopathy, which gradually passes into the fourth stage, which leads to the development of opportunistic infections, malignancies and neurological disorders.To become familiar with the current state of knowledge, which is described on the following pages, it was necessary to study a large number of bibliographic publications by leading Czech and foreign experts in the field of HIV infection. In the Czech scientific environment is this topic, among others, covered by MD. Džamila Stehlíková, from whose scholarly articles and books we have drawn. Another important resource for the bachelor thesis were also journals from abroad, ICAP Columbia University, Czech Health Statistics Yearbook and the magazine of UNAIDS company. From the Czech magazine sources, I would like to mention Florence, Závislosti a my, Lékařské listy and Sestra magazine. The bachelor thesis also includes Internet resources from abroad and the Czech Republic, which deal with such problems, that is www.unaids.org, www.aids-pomoc.cz. Information was also obtained from the World Health Organization, WHO, Czech National Institute of Health and the Czech Ministry of Health. The purpose of the detailed retrieve of a large amount of data was to give relevant statement on researched facts. The knowledge acquired is treated in detail in sections, divided on the basis of the current state of knowledge about HIV infection and AIDS. After studying many studies that have been published, it is clear that HIV infection is increasing, unfortunately, even in the Czech Republic. Recent studies carried out in our country confirm that nowadays people behave very risky and transmission of HIV infection is not decreasing. We have no choice but wait and hope that in this issue there will be found new opportunities and a positive development will occur.
