The role of the nurse in providing care to a patient with apalic syndrome.
 ČASTORALOVÁ, Veronika
The aim of this bachelor work was to describe the role of the nurse providing care to a patient with apalic syndrome. Three research questions were based on this aim: "What nursing problems do the nurses deal with while taking care of a patient with apalic syndrome?" "What specific procedures do the nurses carry out providing care to a patient with apalic syndrome?" and "What are nurses's attitudes to ethical questions connected with the care of a patient with apalic syndrome?" The empirical part of the work was elaborated by qaualitative research method. The method was carried out by semi-structured interview. The keystone for making this interview (Attachment 1) consisted of 24 open questions which were, if necessary, extended by additional questions. The individual questions were aimed at the care of the patients with apalic syndrome, at rehabilitation and at communication with these patients and at ethical questions connected with this syndrome. The research was carried out with 9 nurses who work with the patients in vegetative state. The interviews were then processed by the method of priori coding, the technique - "pencil - paper". The research results were divided into categories and subcategories for better organization. These categories which were chosen according to the specific topics describe the individual spheres of the care of patients with apalic syndrome in the broad sense of consequences including cooperation with the patient's family and ethical problematics. The results of the work provide a complex perspective of the problematics dealing with care of the apalic patients from the nurses's point of view. That is why they can be used as studying material for students, nurses and families of the apalic patients and also for anybody who is interested in the given problematics.
