| Sažetak | Reumatoidni artritis (RA) jest autoimuna, sistemska bolest koja najčešće zahvaća sinovijalne zglobove. Reumatska oboljenja bolna su za pojedinca, ona dovode do nesposobnosti za rad, smanjuju kvalitetu života i mogu čak dovesti do teškog oblika invaliditeta. Manifestacija reumatoidnog artritisa jest zahvaćenost malih zglobova šaka i stopala, a nakon toga zahvaća i veće zglobove, karakteristična je i jutarnja ukočenost ruku koja traje do 30 minuta. RA može se pojaviti i izvanzglobnim manifestacijama. Pojavnost reumatoidnog artritisa češća je u žena nego u muškaraca, a uzrok reumatoidnog artritisa još uvijek nije poznat. Kod postavljanja dijagnoze prvo se mora uzeti anamneza od pacijenta, a poslije toga vrši se fizikalni pregled. Osim fizikalnog pregleda za postavljanje dijagnoze potrebne su dijagnostičke obrade poput: radiološke obrade koje obuhvaćaju UZV, RTG snimanje, CT, MR, DXA i MSUS te laboratorijski nalazi. Liječenje se provodi farmakoterapijom i fizikalnom terapijom i rehabilitacijom, a glavni cilj liječenja jest smanjenje aktivnosti bolesti ili postizanje remisije te unaprjeđenje kvalitete života. Oboljeli od RA-a trebali bi konzumirati mediteransku prehranu, a ne preporučuju se konzumiranje kave, zaslađenih sokova, alkohola, soli i šećera. Uloga medicinske sestre kod reumatoidnog artritisa jest pacijenta i obitelj educirati o bolesti, uzimanju terapije, mogućim nuspojavama te kako nastaviti sa svakodnevnim životom. Kao što je važna edukacija pacijenta i obitelji, također je bitna i komunikacija između medicinske sestre i pacijenta, a i liječnika. Tako pacijent dobiva povjerenje u zdravstveno osoblje. U radu je opisan prikaz slučaja osobe oboljele od reumatoidnog artritisa, sestrinske dijagnoze, ciljevi i intervencije vezane uz slučaj. |
