Abstract

Bolečina je pogost in velik problem pri starejših. Ker je ocena bolečine pomemben korak k ozdravljenju bolečine je potrebno uporabljati zanesljiva orodja za ocenjevanje bolečine pri bolnikih z demenco.Bolnikom, vključenim v raziskavo, sem med prevezom rane merila in beležila vrednost krvnega tlaka in pulza, ter it obeh vrednosti s pomočjo algoritma Analgoscore ocenila bolečino. Ugotovila sem pozitivno koleravijo med algoritmom Analgoscore in VAS lestvico. Prav tako sem ugotovila pozitivno koleracijo med algoritmom Analgoscore in VRS lestvico pri dementnih stanovalcih. Raziskava je pokazala, da algoritem Analgoscore pripomore k kakovostnejšem vodenju ocene bolečine.

Secondary title:	APPLICATION OF THE ANALGOSCORE ALGORITHM TO DETERMINE THE PRESENCE AND LEVEL OF PAIN IN PATIENTS WITH DEMENTIA
Secondary abstract:	Pain is a common and major problem faced by older people. Since pain assessment is an imortant step towards curing pain, it is necessary ti use reliable tools assess the pain in dementia patients. During the change of wound dressings in patients included in the study, their blood pressure and heart rate were measured and recorded, and based on these two values the degree of pain was assessed using the Analgoscore algorithm. A positive correlation between the Analgoscore algorithm and the visual analogue scale was determined. Additionally, a positive correlation between the Analgoscore Algorithm and the verbal rating scale in dementia patients was determined. The study has shown that the Analgoscore algorithm contributes to better quality of condusting pain assessment.
