Tisovic, Jana (author), Mlinar, Suzana (mentor), Thaler, Darja (reviewer)

Uvod: Sindrom policističnih jajčnikov je najpogostejša endokrina motnja pri ženskah v reproduktivni dobi. Sama diagnoza in pridružene težave ter simptomi imajo bistven vpliv na kakovost življenja žensk. Najpogostejši dejavniki, ki poslabšajo kakovost življenja, so motnje menstrualnega ciklusa, težave pri vzdrževanju zdrave telesne mase, hirzutizem, zmanjšana plodnost, čustvene motnje, kulturni pritiski in pričakovanja. Namen: Namen diplomskega dela je ugotoviti kakovost življenja žensk s potrjeno diagnozo sindroma policističnih jajčnikov in kako ta vpliva na njihovo vsakodnevno življenje. Metode dela: V diplomskem delu smo za teoretična izhodišča uporabili deskriptivno kvantitativno raziskovalno metodo. Literaturo smo iskali s pomočjo podatkovnih baz PubMed/Medline in CINAHL/ScienceDirect. V raziskovalnem delu smo uporabili anketni vprašalnik SF-36 (angl. Medical outcomes study – short form 36), ki meri kakovost življenja, povezano z zdravjem. Anketiranje je bilo izvedeno v obliki spletne ankete s pomočjo 1KA/Enklik ankete. Rezultati: Ženske so navajale največ težav pri intenzivnih/težjih aktivnostih, manjši produktivnosti, neuspešnosti pri opravljanju dela, zaradi čustvenih in fizičnih težav. 31 % žensk je navajalo zmerne bolečine, ki so jih v 37 % zmerno ovirale pri vsakodnevnih aktivnostih. 65 % žensk je navajalo tudi občutke utrujenosti in 56 % izčrpanosti. Pri dojemanju lastnega zdravja je 59 % žensk navedlo, da pričakujejo poslabšanje zdravja ali pa še ne vedo, kaj pričakovati v povezavi z lastnim zdravjem v prihodnosti. Razprava in zaključek: PCOS je kompleksna bolezen, ki vpliva na kakovost življenja žensk. V diplomskem delu smo ugotovili, da ima največ žensk s PCOS težave pri izgubi telesne mase, težave, povezane z inzulinsko rezistenco in telesnimi spremembami ter tudi čustvene in psihosocialne težave. Z raziskavo smo ugotovili, da je kakovost življenja žensk s PCOS slabša.

• Title: Quality of life of women with polycystic ovaries syndrome in Slovenia : diploma work

Abstract

Introduction: Polycystic ovary syndrome is the most common endocrine disorder in women of reproductive age. The diagnosis itself, associated problems, and symptoms have a significant impact on women's quality of life. The most common factors that worsen the quality of life are menstrual cycle disorders, problems in maintaining a healthy body weight, hirsutism, reduced fertility, emotional disorders, cultural pressures and expectations. Purpose: The aims of this diploma work is to determine the quality of life of women with a confirmed diagnosis of polycystic ovary syndrome and how it affects their daily life. Methods: In this thesis, we will use a descriptive quantitative research method as a theoretical starting point. The literature will be searched using PubMed/Medline and CINAHL/ScienceDirect databases. The research part will be in the form of an online survey, which will be conducted using 1KA/Enklik survey. The survey will be a translated version of the Medical Outcomes Study Short Form 36 (SF-36) which measures health-related quality of life. Results: Women cited the most problems with intensive/difficult activities, lower productivity, lack of success in performing work, due to emotional and physical problems. 31% of women reported moderate pain, which in 37% moderated their daily activities. 65% of women also reported feelings of fatigue and 56% of exhaustion. When it comes to the perception of their own health, 59% of women stated that they expect their health to deteriorate or they do not yet know what to expect in relation to their own health in the future. Discussion and conclusion: PCOS is a complex disease that affects the quality of life of women. In our thesis, we found that most women with PCOS have problems losing weight, problems related to insulin resistance and body changes, as well as emotional and psychosocial problems. Through research, we found that the quality of life of women with PCOS is worse.
