Abstract Glioblastom je najteži tip tumora na mozgu čovjeka koji ima jako nisku stopu preživljavanja i vrlo lošu
prognozu. Stopa preživljavanja pacijenata nije se poboljšala unatoč napretku kirurgije i medicine. Dvije su vrste
glioblastoma: primarni glioblastom koji je češći i uglavnom pogađa osobe starije životne dobi, te sekundarni
glioblastom koji je rjeđi, a učestaliji je kod osoba mlađe životne dobi.
Znakovi i simptomi koji se javljaju kod pacijenata oboljelih od glioblastoma se razlikuju ovisno o tome gdje
se tumor primarno nalazi, kao i o njegovoj veličini. Gotovo kod svih pacijenata se javljaju glavobolje, mučnine,
dvoslike, vrtoglavice, problem sa govorom i motorikom, epileptički napadaji te mnogi drugi simptomi.
Postavljanje dijagnoze obično započinje detaljnim medicinskim pregledom (neurološka obrada), radiološkim
pretragama (CT i/ili MR mozga), te uzimanjem biopsije tkiva (stereotaksija). Liječenje je obično jako kompleksno
i uključuje kombinaciju kirurškog liječenja, radioterapije, kemoterapije i ciljane terapije lijekovima. Kod
planiranja zdravstvene njege pacijenta s glioblastomom najbitniji je holistički pristup koji obuhvaća procjenu i
intervencije medicinske sestre. U zdravstvenoj njezi medicinska sestra/ tehničar ima izrazito veliku ulogu kao dio
multidisciplinarnog tima jer sudjeluje u svim pripremama za dijagnostičke pretrage, fizičkoj i psihičkoj pripremi
bolesnika za operaciju i nakon nje, primjeni ordinirane terapije, održavanju vitalnih funkcija i praćenju promjena
ponašanja pacijenta. Osim velike količine znanja, medicinska sestra mora posjedovati iskustvo, vještine i empatiju
jer je odgovorna za planiranje zdravstvene njege pacijenta od trenutka prijema pacijenta u bolnicu te do njegovog
povratka u obitelj.
Abstract (english) Glioblastoma is the most severe type of human brain tumor that has a very low survival rate and a very poor
prognosis. Patient survival rates have not improved despite advances in surgery and medicine. There are two types
of glioblastoma: primary glioblastoma, which is more common and mostly affects older people, and secondary
glioblastoma, which is rarer and more common in younger people.
The signs and symptoms experienced by patients with glioblastoma vary depending on where the tumor is
primarily located, as well as its size. Almost all patients have headache, nausea, double vision, dizziness, speech
and motor problems, epileptic seizures and many other symptoms.
Diagnosis usually begins with a detailed medical examination (neurological examination), radiological
examinations (CT and/or MRI of the brain) and taking a tissue biopsy (stereotaxy). Treatment is usually very
complex and includes a combination of surgical treatment, radiotherapy, chemotherapy and targeted drug therapy.
In planning the health care of patients with glioblastoma, the most important is a holistic approach that includes
the assessment and interventions of the nurse. In health care, the nurse/technician has an extremely important role
as part of a multidisciplinary team, because she participates in all preparations for diagnostic tests, physical and
psychological preparation of the patient for surgery and after it, application of prescribed therapy, maintenance of
vital functions and monitoring of changes in the patient's behavior. In addition to great knowledge, a nurse must
possess experience, skills and empathy because she is responsible for planning the patient's health care from the
moment the patient is admitted to the hospital, until his return to the family.
