Özet

Amaç: Yanık sonrası bakım imkânlarının gelişmesi ve mortalite/morbidite oranlarının düşmesi ile birlikte psikiyatrik rehabilitasyon önem kazanmıştır. Yanık travması sonrası inkâr, öfke, suçluluk duygusu, konfüzyon, utanç, kaygı, üzüntü, sinirlilik gibi psikiyatrik belirtiler gözlenebilir. Deliryum, depresyon, anksiyete, travma sonrası stres bozukluğu, cinsel sorunlar gibi psikiyatrik rahatsızlıklar gelişebilir. Bu belirti ve rahatsızlıklar düzenli görüşmeler ve yapılacak uygun psikometrik testlerle araştırılmalıdır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, güncel literatür bilgileri ışığında yanık hastalarının psikolojik rehabilitasyon sürecinin irdelenmesidir.Gereç ve Yöntemler: Bu çalışma temel ve güncel literatür bilgileri gözden geçirilerek ele alınmıştır. Yanık hastalarının psikolojik tanı, tedavi ve rehabilitasyon sürecinde gerekli veriler ortaya konmaya çalışılmıştır. Çalışma esnasında Helsinki Deklarasyonu ilkelerine uyulmuştur.Bulgular: Tedavi ve rehabilitasyon süreci, hekim, hemşire, diyetisyen, psikolog, sosyal hizmet uzmanı, ilgili diğer sağlık çalışanlarından oluşan ve yanıklı hastanın ve bakım sağlayan yakınlarının gereksinimlerini karşılayan multidisipliner bir ekip çalışmasını gerektirir. Bu ekip, hastanın ve ailesinin gerek hastane sürecinde, gerekse sosyal ortamında yaşayabileceği tüm sorunlarda gerekli desteği vermek için gayret göstermelidir. Sonuç: Yanık yaralanması sırasında ya da sonrasında ortaya çıkan psikiyatrik belirtilerin etkin bir şekilde değerlendirilmesi ve uygun şekilde tedavi edilmesi ile hastaların yaşam kalitesinde belirgin iyileşme olduğu gözlenmektedir
