NURSING CARE OF PATIENTS AFTER ACUTE MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION TREATMENT WITH PERCUTANEOUS CORONARY INTERVENTION

Srce ili cor je glavni pokretač ljudskog tijela i jedan od najvitalnijih organa te kao takav podnosi i najteža oboljenja. Njegov rad započinje još intrauterno u 6 tjednu embrijskog života i traje do kraja života. Bolesti srca osim genetskih predispozicija često nastaju i zbog vlastitih neodgovornosti prema zdravlju. Moderna medicina uspjela je smanjiti pobol od srčanih bolesti međutim i dalje su koronarne bolesti među vodećima kako u Hrvatskoj tako i svijetu po letalnom ishodu i najvećem broju oboljenja. Pristup liječenju i sestrinska skrb za oboljele je mukotrpan i dugotrajan proces koji zahtijeva suradnju zdravstvenog tima i oboljelog. Recidivi su nažalost česti zbog neozbiljnog shvaćanja bolesti i nepridržavanja zdravstvenih uputa, a sama bolest često bolesnike dovodi zbog dugotrajnog bolovanja i promjene životnog stila do financijskih, socijalnih i ekonomskih poteškoća, stoga je edukacija kao u većini zdravstvenih poteškoća ključna i za prevenciju i sprečavanje recidiva.The heart or cor is the main driver of the human body and one of the most vital organs and as such tolerates the most serious diseases. His work begins as early as intrauterine at 6 weeks of embryonic life and lasts for the rest of his life. In addition to genetic predispositions, heart disease is often caused by one's own irresponsibility for health. Modern medicine has succeeded in reducing the incidence of heart disease, but coronary diseases are still among the leading in both Croatia and the world in terms of lethal outcome and the highest number of diseases. Access to treatment and nursing care for patients is a painstaking and time-consuming process that requires the collaboration of the healthcare team and the patient. Relapses are unfortunately common because of their poor understanding of the disease and failure to follow health guidelines, and the illness itself often causes patients to suffer financial, social and economic difficulties due to long-term sickness and lifestyle changes, which is why education, as in most health problems, is crucial for the prevention and prevention of relapse
