Popis: | The effectiveness of the treatment of chronic gastroduodenal pathology associated with Helicobacter pylori infection consists not only in the successful eradication of the pathogenic microorganism, but also in eliminating dyspeptic and abdominal pain syndrome, as the main clinical criteria for this pathology. Among the main reasons that affect the successful outcome of therapy, it can be distinguished strict adherence to the prescribed drug regimens. The aim of the work was to assess the effect of parental adherence to their child suffering from chronic gastroduodenal pathology, treatment on the patient's quality of life. 80 children of high school age suffering from chronic gastroduodenal pathology associated with Helicobacter pylori were examined. Anti-Helicobacter therapy using clarithromycin, amoxicillin, omeprazole for 14 days was held in all patients. The training of parental compliance in relation to ongoing therapy for their child was conducted before therapy in patients of the comparison group. The special questionnaire developed by us was used to assess the level of parental compliance. In addition, in all patients, the quality of life indices were studied using the SF-36 questionnaire at baseline and one month after the start of therapy. It was revealed that in children with chronic gastroduodenal pathology the initial indicators on all scales of quality of life were significantly lower compared to the children of the control group. It was found that the greater compliance of parents to their child's prescribed therapy leads not only to the successful eradication of Helicobacter pylori infection, but also to positive dynamics, both physical and psychological aspects of health. |
