Abstract

Atopijski dermatitis, znan tudi kot atopijski ekcem, je kronična vnetna kožna bolezen, ki prizadene več kot 15 % svetovnega prebivalstva, pogosto se pojavi že v otroštvu. Simptomi, kot so intenzivno srbenje, rdečica in vnetje kože, lahko močno vplivajo na vsakdanje življenje in kakovost spanja ter socialne interakcije bolnikov. Čeprav pri nekaterih bolezen izzveni do adolescence, lahko vztraja tudi v odrasli dobi, kar zahteva dolgotrajno zdravljenje z ustrezno nego kože in zdravili. Poleg fizičnih simptomov atopijski dermatitis prinaša tudi psihološke izzive, kot so nizka samopodoba, socialna izolacija in stigma zaradi vidnih kožnih sprememb. Ker vzroki bolezni niso povsem pojasnjeni, se zdravljenje osredotoča na lajšanje simptomov in preprečevanje poslabšanj, s poudarkom na osebnem pristopu. Razumevanje in podpora okolice sta ključna za izboljšanje kakovosti življenja bolnikov, ki se pogosto soočajo z diskriminacijo in marginalizacijo zaradi svoje bolezni. Namen diplomskega dela je preučiti vpliv atopijskega dermatitisa na kakovost življenja bolnikov ter vlogo društev pri premagovanju teh težav.

Secondary title:	Atopic dermatitis and everyday life: the role of support groups
Secondary abstract:	Atopic dermatitis, also known as atopic eczema, is a chronic inflammatory skin condition that affects over 15% of the global population, often appearing in childhood. Symptoms such as intense itching, redness, and skin inflammation can significantly impact patients' daily lives, affecting sleep quality and social interactions. While some individuals outgrow the condition by adolescence, it can persist into adulthood, requiring long-term management with proper skincare and medications. Beyond the physical symptoms, atopic dermatitis also presents psychological challenges, including low self-esteem, social isolation, and stigma due to visible skin changes. As the exact causes of the disease remain unclear, treatment focuses on symptom relief and preventing flare-ups, with an emphasis on personalized care. Understanding and support from the surrounding community are crucial for improving the quality of life for patients, who often face discrimination and marginalization due to their condition. The aim of this thesis is to examine the impact of atopic dermatitis on patients' quality of life and the role of support groups in addressing these challenges.
