Abstract Cilj istraživanja: Osnovni cilj istraživanja je utvrditi u kojoj mjeri osobe liječenje od opijatske ovisnosti osjećaju stigmatizaciju od strane zdravstvenih djelatnika i ostalih ljudi (obitelj, prijatelji, mediji) te utvrditi u kojoj mjeri osjećaju samostigmatizaciju.
Ispitanici i metode: Ispitanici su osobe liječene od opijatske ovisnosti u Centru za izvanbolničko liječenje bolesti ovisnosti pri Nastavnom Zavodu za javno zdravstvo PGŽ. Istraživanje je provedeno u razdoblju od 15. ožujka 2019. do 15. svibnja 2019. te je u njemu sudjelovalo 100 ispitanika. Oba spola su bila zastupljena u istraživanju, s time da je žena petina u sustavu liječenja, pa je na kraju upravo takav uzorak i među ispitanicima. Za istraživanje je kreiran upitnik s 15 pitanja čiji su odgovori podijeljeni u skali od 1 do 5, od „uopće se ne slažem“ do „slažem se u potpunosti“. Prikupljeni podaci statistički su obrađeni uz pomoć statističkog programa Statistica (Dell Inc, SAD), a za potrebe prikaza podataka korištene su osnovne deskriptivne mjere učestalosti (broj i postotak), aritmetičke sredine (X) i standardne devijacije (SD).
Rezultati: Zdravstveni djelatnici u nedovoljnoj mjeri pokazuju suosjećanje. Nisu dobivene razlike između ostalih pacijenata u razini skrbi, zaštiti podataka i statusu u zdravstvenom sustavu. Rezultati pokazuju da osobe ovisne o opijatima u velikoj mjeri osjećaju stigmatizaciju u društvu s obzirom da im je često uskraćen posao, doživljavaju ih kao manje vrijedne članove društva, pričaju o njima s omalovažavanjem i uvredljivo, negativno su prezentirani u medijima, nazivaju ih pogrdnim imenima i ostali mijenjaju prema njima stavove kad saznaju su ovisne osobe. Od prijatelja i obitelji u većini imaju podršku. Samostigmatizacija je izražena u manjoj mjeri i rezultati ukazuju da misle da je njihovo mišljenje bitno i da u životu imaju očekivanja poput drugih ljudi.
Zaključak: Prema dobivenim rezultatima najveći stupanj stigmatizacije ispitanici percipiraju od strane društva, zatim od strane zdravstvenih djelatnika te najmanju od samih sebe.
Abstract (english) Objective of research: The main objective of the research is to determine the extent to which people are in treatement for opiate addiction stigmatize by health professionals and other people (family, friends, media) and to determine the extent to which they feel self-stigmatized.
Subjects and Methods: Participants are people treated with opiate addiction at the Outpatient Treatment Center for Addiction Diseases in Teaching Institute of Public Health PGC. The research was conducted in the period from March 15, 2019 to May 15, 2019, involving 100 participants. Both sexes were represented in the research, with the woman being the fifth in the treatment system, so in the end it was the same pattern among the participants. For the survey, a questionnaire was created with 15 questions answered with a scale of 1 to 5, from „I disagree with it completely“ to „I agree with it comletely“. The collected data were statistically processed with the help of statistical software Statistics (Dell Inc, USA), and basic descriptive measurements (number and percentage), arithmetic mean (X) and standard deviation (SD) were used for data display purposes.
Results: Health professionals show low empathy. No differences were found between the other patients in the level of care, data protection and status in the healthcare system. The results show that opiate addicts are highly stigmatized in society given that they are often denied jobs, perceived as less valuable members of society, talked about with disparagement and insult, negatively portrayed in the media, called derogatory names and change in attitudes when other people find out they are addicted. Most of the friends and family are supporting them. Self-stigmatization is less pronounced and the results indicate that they think their opinion is important and that they have expectations in life like other people.
Conclusion: According to the results obtained, participants perceive the highest degree of stigmatization by society, then by health care professionals and the lowest by themselves.
