Povzetek
Uvod: Z odkritjem X-sevanja se je rentgensko sevanje začelo uporabljati v medicini,
znanosti in industriji. Zdravniki so kmalu po odkritju začeli z uporabo rentgenskih žarkov
na pacientih, da bi lahko raziskovali okostje in druge organe človeškega telesa in se
posledično tudi prvi soočili z negativnimi posledicami sevanja na človekovo zdravje. RTG-
preiskava je sicer nujna diagnostična preiskava za različne vrste bolezni, ki naj bi
zdravnikom omogočila, da postavijo čim bolj natančno diagnozo, od katere je odvisen tudi
uspeh zdravljenja. Vendar ima vsak pacient pravico biti seznanjen s tem, kaj mu zdravnik
predpiše in kakšne učinke ima preiskava na njegovo zdravje. Znanstveno je dokazano, da
že manjše količine ionizirajočega sevanja škodljivo vplivajo na človekovo zdravje, če
gredo večkrat skozi telo, zatorej so zdravniki o vseh teh tveganjih dolžni informirati
vsakega svojega pacienta. Namen: Želeli smo raziskati, kakšna je seznanjenost pacientov s
škodljivostjo rentgenskega sevanja, v sklopu tega pa ugotoviti, ali se pacienti bojijo
posledic RTG-sevanja na lastno zdravje ter ali starost pacienta vpliva na njegovo
seznanjenost s škodljivostjo RTG-sevanja. Metode: V teoretičnem delu smo uporabili
metodo kompilacije, ki temelji na uporabi domače in tuje literature, izpiskov, citatov in
navedb drugih avtorjev ter predstavilja osrednji raziskovalni problem. Magistrsko delo
tako temelji na analizi sekundarnih podatkov, pri čemer smo uporabili deskriptivno
metodo, s katero smo opisovali in interpretirali najpomembnejše pojme s preučevanega
področja. Za raziskovalni del smo uporabili kvantitativno metodo, anketni vprašalnik,
pridobljene podatke smo obdelali z računalniškim programom SPSS. Anketni vprašalnik je
bil zaprtega tipa in priložnostni zaporedni vzorec je zajemal 250 pacientov Zdravstvenega
doma Dubrovnik. Rezultati: Splošna seznanjenost pacientov s škodljivostjo RTG-sevanja
je dobra. Pacienti so seznanjeni s tem, da RTG-sevanje škoduje njihovemu zdravju, kljub
temu pa se ne bojijo posledic sevanja na njihovo zdravje. Nekoliko manj so seznanjeni s
podrobnejšimi informacijami, kot so priporočljiva oz. mejna števila opravljenih tovrstnih
preiskav na letni ravni, vpliv sevanja na krajšanje življenjske dobe ipd., kar kaže nekoliko
drugačno sliko; slabo oz. zgolj površno seznanjenost s škodljivostjo RTG-sevanja.
Razprava in zaključek: Seznanjenost s škodljivostjo RTG-sevanja je površna, zato je
priporočljivo spodbujanje medicinskega osebja k večji informiranosti svojih pacientov ter
uporabi sodobnejših tehnik, ki bi zmanjšale škodljivost tovrstnih preiskav.

ǂThe ǂknowledge of Dubrovnik health centre's patients about harmfulness of rtg radiation |
Sekundarni povzetek: |
Introduction: X radiation became useful in medicine, science and industry soon after it
was discovered. Doctors used X-rays as a tool for determining the state of their patients.
They used it to study the skeleton and organs of the human body. They were consequently
the first to face the negative influences of radiation on human health. RTG investigation is
a necessary diagnostic test for various types of illnesses. With its help, doctors should be
allowed to set up the diagnosis as accurately as possible, while the success of treatment
depends on it as well. Every patient has the right to be aware of what the doctor prescribes
for them and what effects the examination has on their health. It has been scientifically
proven that even small amounts of ionizing radiation have an adverse effect on human
health if they go several times through the body. Doctors are therefore obliged to inform
each of their patients about such possible negative consequences. Purpose: We wanted to
explore what the level of knowledge with patients regarding the harmfulness of X-ray
radiation. is In this context, we aimed to determine whether patients are afraid of the
consequences of RTG radiation on their own health and whether the age of the patient
influences the knowledge of the harmfulness of RTG radiation. Methods: For formation of
the theoretical work we used a compilation method based on the use of domestic and
foreign literature, extracts, quotations and statements by other authors to present the central
research problem. The master's thesis is based on the analysis of secondary data. We have
used a descriptive method to describe and interpret the most important concepts from the
study area. For the research part we used a quantitative method and a survey questionnaire.
The obtained data was processed with the SPSS computer program. The questionnaire was
a closed type survey; the convenience consecutive sample covered 250 patients at the
Dubrovnik Health Center. Results: The general knowledge about the harmfulness of RTG-
radiation with the patients interviewed is good. They are aware that RTG radiation
damages their health; nevertheless they do not fear the effects of radiation on their health.
The surveyed people were somewhat less familiar with the more detailed information, such
as recommended or limit values of such investigations carried out on an annual basis, the
impact of radiation on shortening life expectancy, etc., which shows a slightly different
picture; superficial familiarity with the harmfulness of RTG radiation. Discussion and
conclusion: The awareness of the harmfulness of RTG radiation is superficial, therefore it
is advisable for medical staff to increase the awareness among their patients and for the
institutions to use more modern techniques with the help of which the harmfulness of such
investigations would be reduced. |
