Nurse and her role in preventing gastrointestinal tract illness.
KRÁTKÁ, Iveta
This diploma thesis focuses on the description of a chosen gastro-intestinal disease - colorectal carcinome, unspecified chronic intestinal infections, and ulcerous gastroduodenal disease. It pursues the causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment, and most attention is given to the prevention of a chosen disease in gastro-intestinal tract. Concerning prevention, it focuses also on nutrition because that is what plays a significant role in keeping human population healthy. The empiric part of the thesis has been processed using a qualitative research survey, using the method of an in-depth semi-standardized interview. The first research group was formed by healthy individuals. The second research group was formed by nurses working with a practical doctor at the internal department and at the gastro-enterological department. The third research group was formed by patients suffering from gastroduoenal disease. The fourth research group was formed by patients sufferring from non-specific chronic intestinal infections. The fifth research group was formed by patients suffering from colorectal carcinome. The obtained results have proven that people know what a healthy lifestyle is, but compliance to it is rather difficult. One of its positive effects is that most people get their medical check-up regularly. The research group of ill individuals proves that the area of terciary or quarterly prevention is not made clear to the probands. The nurses´ research group has proven the fact that the prevention area is not made properly clear to the nurses, thus they do not provide the patients with sufficient information about their illness. This diploma thesis should aim at nurses and make sure they do not ignore the necessity of gastro-intestinal disease preention. T inform patients about options of prevention they have available. Patients themselves also need to realize how important their health is in their lives. Research survey results have been processed to form an information brochure meant for gastro-intestinal disease patients. To deepe knowledge about this issue we suggest offering the obtained results to be published in an expert magazine called Gastroenterology and Haemathology - Czech Gastroenterological Society.
