Follow-up of heart failure patients at the Radenci Health Resort

Namen diplomske naloge je prikazati rehabilitacijsko zdravljenje bolnikov s srčnim popuščanjem v Zdravilišču Radenci. Ugotoviti želimo, kakšne oskrbe so bili deležni tovrstni bolniki v času rehabilitacije ter količino in vrste opravljenih neinvazivnih preiskav. V diplomski nalogi je opisana definicija, epidemiologija in etiopatogeneza srčnega popuščanja. Predstavljeni so diagnostični postopki, farmakološko in nefarmakološko zdravljenje ter zdravstvena nega bolnika s srčnim popuščanjem. V raziskavi smo obdelali podatke, ki so bili razvidni iz zdravstvene dokumentacije bolnikov v Zdravilišču Radenci, s posebnim poudarkom na anamnezi, klinični sliki, simptomatiki, diagnostičnih in terapevtskih ukrepih ter načinu zdravstveno-vzgojne oskrbe. Rezultate smo statistično in grafično prikazali. Posebej smo izpostavili parametre, ki se nanašajo na dejavnike tveganja za razvoj srčnožilnih bolezni, predvsem pa srčnega popuščanja.The purpose of this work is to show the rehabilitative treatment of patients with congestive heart failure at the Radenci Health Resort.
