Abstract

Patients with chronic kidney failure are looking for many starting points since diagnosis and resort to complementary methods. Despite the lack of scientific evidence, complementary health approach methods are widely used to prevent disease and to protect against the negative effects of conventional medicine and provide holistic protection. Uremic pruritus individuals were found to apply to applications such as diet, herbal medicines containing menthol, massage, hypnosis, imagination, participation in social support groups, regular exercise, relaxation exercises, cold application, aromatherapy, thermal therapy, hydrotherapy, acupuncture, and acupressure. The use of complementary health approaches can be dangerous due to the lack of renal excretory function in CRF patients. Therefore, nurses should be able to evaluate the effects of complementary health approaches on the patient's state of health and accept this when additional knowledge, skills, and expertise are required.

Özet

Kronik böbrek yetmezliği hastaları tanı konulmasından itibaren birçok çıkış noktası aramakta ve tamamlayıcı yaklaşım yöntemlerine başvurmaktadır. Bilimsel kanıtların azlığına rağmen, tamamlayıcı sağlık yaklaşımları, hastalığı önlemek, konvansiyonel tıbbın olumsuz etkilerine karşı koymak ve bütüncül bakımı sağlamak için yaygın olarak kullanılmaktadır. Üremik kaşıntısı olan hastaların ise diyet, mentol içeren bitkisel ilaçlar, masaj, hipnoz, hayal kurma, sosyal destek gruplarına katılım, düzenli egzersiz, gevşeme egzersizleri, soğuk uygulama, aromaterapi, termalterapi, hidroterapi, akupunktur ve akupressure gibi uygulamalara başvurdukları saptanmıştır. Kronik böbrek yetmezliği hastalarında böbrek boşaltım fonksiyonunun olmaması nedeniyle tamamlayıcı sağlık yaklaşımlarının kullanılması tehlikeli olabilir. Bu nedenle, hemşireler tamamlayıcı sağlık yaklaşımlarının hastanın sağlık durumu üzerindeki etkilerini bilmeli, ek bilgi, beceri ve uzmanlık gerektiğinde bunu değerlendirebilmelidir.
