Introduction: Nowadays with the prolongation of life expectancy, joint prosthesis operations are performed more frequently to increase the quality of life. However, when prosthesis related infection develops, people's lives are adversely affected. In our study, it was aimed to reveal what the patients experienced in this process. Method: Qualitative research was preferred to understand the feelings, thoughts and experiences of the patients on the subject. Non-probability sampling method was used to select the individuals. Face-to-face interviews were conducted with the patients by semi-structured questions and voice recordings were taken. When the data was saturation was reached, the patient recruitment was terminated. The data were deciphered, transcribed, and analyzed with thematic approach. Results: The mean age of the patients is 64.25±7.43 (min:50, max:74) years. The patients stated that they had undergone 4-12 more operations after the first joint prosthesis. In the analysis, six main themes were identified: time, patient's agenda in treatment, patient-physician relationship, financial difficulties, patients' view of the future and receiving support. Patients described their treatment protocols with a long and complex history. In the treatment process, pain, discharge, sleep problems, deterioration of social relations, lack of referral chain, responsibilities that they could not fulfill, the burden on their caregivers, and problems in finding a job were stated as difficulties encountered in the treatment process. They stated that they became dependent on others because the treatment of these infections took a long time, their mobility after the operation was affected and they could not fulfill their basic needs and self-care. Conclusion: The long and difficult treatment process of periprosthetic infections adversely affects the well-being of patients. Patients need physical and psychosocial rehabilitation during and after treatment. With the awareness of the physicians and health authorities of these problems, different support plans can be made.

Protez ilişkili eklem enfeksiyonu olan hastalar neler yaşıyorlar? Nitel araştırma.

Giriş: Günümüzde yaşam süresinin uzamasıyla birlikte eklem protezi operasyonları, yaşam kalitesini arttırmak amacıyla daha sık yapılmaktadır. Ancak protez ilişkili eklem enfeksiyonu (PPE) komplikasyonu geliştiğinde kişilerin hayatları olumsuz olarak etkilenmektedir. Çalışmamızda, hastaların bu süreçte neler yaşadıklarını ortaya koymak amaçlanmıştır. Yöntem: Hastaların PPE ile ilgili duygularını, düşüncelerini ve yaşantılarını anlayabilmek amacıyla nitel çalışma yöntemi tercih edilmiştir. Kişilerin seçilmesinde olasılıklı olmayan örnekleme yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Yarı yapılandırılmış sorular hazırlanarak hastalar ile yüz yüze görüşmeler yapılmış ve ses kayıtları alınmıştır. Veriler açısından doyuma ulaşıldığında hasta alımı sonlandırılmıştır. Veriler deşifre edilerek yazıya aktarılmış, kodlanmış ve tematik analiz yapılmıştır. Bulgular: Çalışmamızdaki hastaların yaş ortalaması 64,25±7,43 (min:50, maks:74) yıldır. Hastalar takılan ilk eklem protezinden sonra 4-12 kez daha operasyon geçirdiklerini belirtmişlerdir. Analizde; zaman, tedavide hastanın gündemi, hasta hekim ilişkisi, maddi sıkıntılar, hastaların geleceğe bakışı ve destek görme olmak üzere altı ana tema saptanmıştır. Hastalar tedavi protokollerini karışık ve uzun bir öykü ile anlatmışlardır. Tedavi sürecinde genel olarak ağrı, akıntı, uyku sorunları, sosyal ilişkilerin bozulması, sevk zincirinin olmaması, kendilerinin yerine getiremedikleri sorumluluklar, onlara bakım verenin üzerindeki yük, iş bulma sorunları karşılaşılan zorluklar olarak belirtilmiştir. Bu enfeksiyonların tedavisinin uzun sürmesi, operasyon sonrası hareket kabiliyetinin etkilenmesiyle temel ihtiyaçlarını, öz bakımlarını yerine getirememeleri nedeniyle başkalarına bağımlı hale geldiklerini ifade etmişlerdir. Sonuç: Protez ilişkili enfeksiyonların uzun ve zorlu tedavi süreci, hastaların iyilik halini olumsuz yönde etkilemektedir. Hastalar tedavi sırasında ve sonrasında fiziksel ve psikososyal rehabilitasyona ihtiyaç duymaktadırlar. Tedavi sürecindeki hekimlerin ve sağlık otoritelerinin bu sorunların farkında olmasıyla, farklı destek planlamaları yapılabilir.
