diplomsko delo
Abstract
Ljudje radi rečemo, da so otroci naše največje bogastvo in da jih je treba zavarovati pred vsemi nevarnostmi, ki jim pretijo. Bolezni so gotovo ena od stvari, pred katero bi starši radi zaščitili svojega otroka, vendar pogosto ne vemo, kje obstaja nevarnost resnih okužb. Psi in mačke so mnogokrat največji prijatelji otrok, z njimi ravnajo enako ali še lepše kot z ljudmi. Seveda se ne zavedajo, da se lahko prav od svojih ljubljenčkov okužijo s povzročitelji nevarnih bolezni. Tu nastopimo mi, odrasli, da jih poučimo o pravilnem odnosu oziroma vedenju v družbi z živalmi. V teoretičnem delu diplomskega dela predstavljam parazitske bolezni, ki se prenašajo s psa ali mačke na človeka. Opisani so njihovi povzročitelji, s posebnim poudarkom na okužbi s pasjo trakuljo, saj je okužba z mehurnjaki smrtno nevarna. Nadalje so opisani ukrepi za preprečevanje okužbe s pasjo trakuljo doma, v vrtcih in šolah. Najpomembnejša ukrepa sta primerna higiena v stiku z ljubljenčki ter pravilno ravnanje z notranjimi organi pri zakolu prašičev ali ovac, zato sem te teme nekoliko podrobneje predstavil. V empiričnem delu so predstavljeni rezultati raziskave, ki sem jo opravil s pomočjo ankete in intervjuja z veterinarjem ter zdravnikom pediatrom. Želel sem ugotoviti, ali obstaja potencialna nevarnost okužbe s pasjo trakuljo na območju Golnika, Trstenika in Bohinjske Bistrice, kolikšna je osveščenost staršev o možnostih okužbe otrok s pasjo trakuljo, kaj starši menijo o ustreznosti zaščite svojih otrok pred tako okužbo v vrtcu ter koliko otrok pride v stik z mačko ali psom. Kar dve tretjini vprašanih staršev na anketiranih območjih je prepričanih, da so s strani vrtca premalo seznanjeni o obolenjih, ki jih prenašata pes in mačka, zato bi bilo potrebno v vrtcih z brošurami, plakati in ustnim obveščanjem starše in otroke seznanjati z načini okužbe in s preventivnimi ukrepi za preprečevanje okužbe s pasjo trakuljo.

Secondary title: |
THREAT OF ECHINOCOCCUS INFECTION TO HUMANS IN GOLNIK, TRSTENIK AND BOHINJSKA BISTRICA |
Secondary abstract: |
We use to say that children are our greatest treasure and that we should protect them against any possible threat. Diseases are definitely one of these threats that parents would like to protect their child from. However, we often do not know which are serious infections and where they come from. In many cases, cats and dogs are children's best friends and they treat them in the same way, or even kinder as they treat humans. Kids are of course not aware that pets can cause serious diseases. This is the role of us, adults, to teach children about how to act and behave when in the company of animals. In the theoretical part of my thesis I introduce parasitic diseases in cats and dogs which are transmittable to humans, especially focusing on the infection with the dog tapeworm (Echinococcus) as the infection of humans with its cysts is deadly. Further on, I discuss the measures to prevent the infection with the dog tapeworm at home, in kindergartens and schools. The two most important measures are maintaining proper hygiene while in contact with pets and proper handling of pig or sheep entrails at slaughter. In the empirical part, I present the results of my research based on a questionnaire and an interview with a veterinary and pediatrician. The aims of my investigation were to establish whether there is a potential danger of infection with the dog tapeworm in the Golnik, Trstenik and Bohinjska Bistrica area, are the parents in the regions aware of possible infections with the dog tapeworm, what the parents' opinions about their children's protection against the infection in kindergartens, and how many children come into contact with cats and dogs. As much as two thirds of the interviewed parents believe that kindergartens do not provide sufficient information on the diseases transmittable from cats and dogs to children. Kindergartens should thus provide to parents and children educational brochures and posters as well as oral information about the ways of transmission and preventing the infection with the dog tapeworm. |
