| Abstract | U današnjem vremenu starost i starenje su riječi koje se mogu čuti svakodnevno u pukom narodu. Osobe starije životne dobi sklone su stigmatizaciji i velikom broju osuda. Njihove fiziološke i psihološke funkcije slabe zbog napretka kronološke dobi. Slabljenjem organizma dolazi i do pojave popratnih bolova koji uvelike utječu na psihološke funkcije gdje osobe starije životne dobi bez kontrole posežu za upotrebom analgetika odnosno lijekova protiv bolova. Na surovu bol se nadovezuje i smanjenja fizička aktivnost zbog slabljenja i propadanja mišićnih struktura. Upravo zbog priloženih informacija razmatra se kako zapravo lijekovi protiv bolova odnosno analgetici utječu na fizičku aktivnost osoba starije životne dobi.
Glavni ciljevi ovog rada bili su utvrditi posežu li osobe starije životne dobi za uzimanjem analgetika kada se bol može smanjiti/prevenirati fizičkom aktivnošću u raznim slučajevima; bave li se starije osobe fizičkom aktivnošću uopće i je li ona povezana s njihovim socioekonomskim statusom; te utvrditi uzimanje lijekova protiv bolova odnosno analgetika s obzirom na njihov spol. U svrhu ovog istraživanja proveden je anketni upitnik putem društvenih mreža koji je bio dobrovoljan i anoniman te konstruiran uz pomoć upitnika preuzetog od strane autora gospodina Adila (A questionnaire based study to assess attitude and awareness among south indian population towards the use of oral analgetics, 2017.) te uz pomoć skala i upitnika: Development and validation of a questionnaire to assess disabling foot pain, 2000., High Activity Arthoplasty Score te Severity of Dependence Scales (SDS).
Od sveukupno 103 sudionika (N=103) većina sudionika bila je dobi od 60 godina i više, te je većina ispitanika srednje stručne spreme.
Rezultati pokazuju da osobe starije životne dobi uzimaju lijekove protiv bolova samo kada ih najviše boli, njih 53 (51,5%) i kada je bol neizdrživa prema preporuci liječnika. No, usprkos tome njihova fizička aktivnost slabi uz pretpostavku da lijekovi uzrokuju slabljenje organizma i funkcioniranja. Zbog toga oni se bave samo lakim tjelesnim aktivnostima poput lagane šetnje, njih 31 (30,1%). Shodno navedenome važnost edukacije je bitna u poticanju pacijenta i pokazivanja alternativnih načina bavljenja fizičkom aktivnošću. Prvostupnica sestrinstva kao takva mora sukladno svojem znanju i vještinama putem planiranja i organizacije aktivnosti omogućiti pacijentu na najbolji mogući način suočavanje sa problemom i pristupiti rješavanju istog. |
| Abstract (english) | In today's times, old age and aging are the words that can be heard every day in the people. Aged people who tend stigmatization and a large number of condemnation. Their physiological and psychological functions, due to weak progress of the biological age. The weakening of the body leads to the appearance of side pains, which greatly affect psychological functions, where the elderly without control resort to using analgesics or painkillers. For severe pain, supplements and a decrease in physical activity due to the weakening and disintegration of the muscular structures. Because of the closed information viewed as actually pain relievers or analgesics will affect the physical activity of older persons.
The main objectives of this work were to determine whether the elderly have resorted to taking painkillers when the pain can be reduced with physical activity in different situations; to determine if older people, physical activity, and whether it is linked to their social status; to determine the pain medicine or analgesics, given their gender. The aim of this study was implemented in the questionnaire via social networks, which was voluntary and anonymous and takes from the author sir Adil (A questionnaire based study to assess attitude and awareness among south indian population towards the use of oral analgetics, 2017.) using scale and questionnaire: Development and validation of a questionnaire to assess disabling foot pain, 2000., High Arthoplasty Activity Score and Severity of Dependence Scales (SDS).
From overall, 103 participants (N=103) the majority of participants were aged 60 years or more, and most of the respondents of average skill.
The results show that older people take painkillers only when they are most in pain 53 (51.5%) and when the pain is unberable on the recommendation of a doctor. But, despite this, their physical activity wanes, provided that the drugs cause weakening of the body and functioning. Because of this, they are only dealing with light physical activities, like an easy walk 31 (30.1 %). Accordingly, the importance of education is important in stimulating patients and presenting alternative ways of dealing with physical activity. Bachelor of nursing as such needs according to their knowledge and skills in planning and organization of activity afford the patient the best way to deal with the problem and to access one and the same. |
