Nurses and delirious states in hospitalized patients
Sestry a delirantní stavy u hospitalizovaných nemocných
Text přináší výsledky dotazníkového šetření mezi sestrami z různých oddělení zaměřeného na jejich názory a zkušenosti s péčí o delirantní nemocné. Získané odpovědi jsou většinou schématické, jednostranné, bez pokusu o hlubší rozbor. Jen málo odpovědí vyjadřovalo potřebu porozumění a zvláštního zacházení s těmito nemocnými. Pro zkvalitnění péče o delirantní nemocné bude nutné obohatit pre i postgraduální vzdělávání o zasvěcenější poučení o moderních metodách práce s těmito nemocnými.
Klíčová slova:
delirium, demence, kvalita života seniorů, ošetřování delirantních nemocných.

Overview
The results of a simple questionnaire put to nurses from various hospital departments concerning their views and experience in treating delirious patients are presented. The answers were mainly schematic, one-sided, and without any attempt to profoundly analyse the problem. Only a few respondents noticed the need for a better understanding of delirious patients and the need for their special treatment. Incorporating courses on modern techniques of working with delirious patients into the pre - and postgraduate syllabus will improve the quality of care provided to these patients.
Key words:
deliria, dementia, quality of life in the elderly, nursing of delirious patients.
