Očakáva sa, že sestry a profesionáli pracujúci v zdravotníctve budú schopní realizovať rôzne odborné výkony, resp. budú schopní asistovať pri vybraných procedúrach, a to zručne, s istotou a bezpečne.

Vysokoškolská učebnica Ošetrovateľských techník sprevádza študenta najčastejšie vykonávanými ošetrovateľskými činnosťami, ktoré odrážajú najnovšie poznatky z profesie, praxe založenej na dôkazoch a odborných smerníc. Nezanedbateľným aspektom tejto publikácie je dôraz na pacientovu individualitu a spoluúčasť pri plánovaní a realizácii výkonov, ako aj prevencia komplikácií a dôsledné vykonanie ošetrovateľských výkonov podľa najnovších odborných i vedeckých poznatkov.

Učebnica je členená do dvanástich kapitol. V úvodných kapitolách sa autori venujú organizácii ošetrovacej jednotky a kontrole infekcií v zdravotníckych zariadeniach. Ďalšie kapitoly sú venované posúdeniu pacienta, najmä vitálnych funkcií, nutričnej starostlivosti, príprave a podávaniu rôznych foriem liekov, odberom biologického materiálu, starostlivosti o vylučovanie moču a stolice, asistencii sestry pri punkciách, ošetrovaniu rán a elektokardiografickému vyšetreniu.

Hlavným cieľom je osloviť predovšetkým študentov ošetrovateľstva, ale aj všeobecného a zubného lekárstva i vybraných zdravotníckych odborov. Veríme, že študenti i profesionáli nájdu v tejto učebnici sprievodcu a praktického pomocníka.

The following textbook deals with issues related to communication in medical practice which significantly affects the survival and behaviour of a patient. Communication skills and the attitude of healthcare professionals exercised towards a patient have significant impact on patient’s ability to handle treatment and his or hers co-operation during the process.

This publication is intended to serve as a guide applicable towards deeper knowledge, better comprehension and overall understanding of the mental state of an ill person, his or her needs, stances, behaviour patterns, but also his or her management of the illness. Attention is also paid to the active building of a relationship between the healthcare professional and the patient, with emphasis on respect, truthfulness, and mutual understanding in communication. Particularly accentuated are issues related to specific effective communication skills, methods, and techniques serviceable during interactions with a patient; application of empathy and proactive approach are highlighted.
