Cultural practices and diet adherence of patients living on haemodialysis

Ramkelawan, Verosha 10 1900 (has links)
Text in English with abstracts in English and isiZulu / Poor adherence to their prescribed diet, medications and treatment contributes to increased mortality and morbidity in patients with end-stage renal disease. These patients must change their diet when receiving dialysis treatment, but cultural beliefs and practices can affect their adherence to the prescribed diet. The purpose of this qualitative, descriptive, exploratory study was to improve health education on prescribed diet adherence to patients living on haemodialysis at a haemodialysis unit in eThekwini Municipality. Data from a sample of 20 patients was collected using semi-structured interviews and analysed using qualitative content analysis. The findings revealed that haemodialysis patients’ prescribed diet adherence was influenced by cultural and religious views, and by family support. Food availability, patients’ geographical location and patients’ financial means hindered their adherence to their prescribed diet. A multi-disciplinary health care team including nurses, should be sensitive to patients’ different cultural beliefs and practices when providing health education. / Ukungabambeleli endleleni emisiwe yokudla, amakhambi nasekwelashweni kunomthelela ekwandiseni izimpawu zesifo sezinso esingapheli (ESRD) futhi kwandisa isibalo sabantu ababulawa yilesisifo. Iziguli ezinalesisifo zidinga ukushitsha indlela yokuphila, iziphuzo kanye nokulandela indlela emisiwe yokudla kakhulukazi mabe ngaphansi kokwelashwa ngokuhlanzwa kwegazi ngomshini (dialysis). Izinkolelo zamasiko nendlela zokuphila ezihambisana namasiko kwenze imfundiso nge ezempilo maqondana nendlela emisiwe yokudla yaba lukhuni. Inhloso yalolucwaningo bekuwukwandisa ulwazi nemfundiso ngezempilo mayelana nokulandela indlela emisiwe yokudla kwiziguli izithola ukulashwa ngokuhlanzwa kwegazi ngomshini (haemodialysis) esikhungweni esikuMasipala weTheku. Kusetshenziwe indlela yokwenza ucwaningo esezingeni elifanele, Imininingwano eqoqiwe eqembini (sample) leziguli ezingamashumi amabili (20) ezithola ukwelashwange haemodialyisis. Imininigwane iqoqwe kusetshenziswa izingxoxo ezihleliwe. Imigomo elawula ukuhlaziya ilandeliwe yonke ngenkathi kwenziwe lolucwaningo. Lolucwaningo luveze ukuthi indlela yokudla emisiwe yeziguli ezikwi dialysis iphazanyiswa imobono yamasiko, inkolo kanye nokusekelwa nokuzimbandakanya kwamalungu omndeni. Izinselelo ezinjengokutholakala, indawo isiguli esihlala kuyo nezinkinga zemali zivimbela ukubambelela endleleni emisiwe yokudla. Abasebenzi bezempilo kumele banakekele indima edlalwa izinkolelo namasiko uma befundisa ngezempilo ezigulini eziphethwe izinso. / Nursing Science / M.A. (Nursing Science)

Filosofiese analise van aspekte van die Nederduitse Gereformeerde Kerk se Geloofsleer / A philosophical analysis of aspects of the articles of faith of the Dutch Reformed Church

Crouse, Johan Theodor 01 1900 (has links)
Text in Afrikaans with abstracts in Afrikaans, English and Zulu. Translated title in English supplied / Die hoofdoel van die verhandeling is om die fundamentele aanspraak van die Nederduitse Gereformeerde Kerk aan te spreek dat sy belydenisskrifte, met spesifieke verwysing na daardie leerstellings wat met die vraag oor die ontstaan van die mensdom en die oorsprong van sonde handel en wat in 1619 deur die Sinode van Dordrecht aanvaar is, waar is. Hierdie leerstellings word (teologies) as waarhede voorgehou dat dit op die Bybel as die Woord van God gegrond is. Die vertrekpunt van die verhandeling is dat die betrokke leerstellings vanuit ’n toepaslike historiese konteks benader moet word wanneer die vraag van hulle geldigheid aangespreek word. Nog meer, betoog die verhandeling dat dit vandag epistemologies geregverdig is om te glo dat die betrokke leerstellings deur hedendaagse wetenskaplike bevindings en ander tersaaklike bewyse onwaar gemaak is. Die kwessie van waarheid moet daarom (her-)aangespreek word vanuit ’n perspektief wat moderne wetenskaplike bevindings insluit. Die Nederduitse Gereformeerde Kerk het egter in 2010 suggereer dat sy fundamentele leerstellings met daardie (wetenskaplike) bewyse wat dit onwaar maak, kan medebestaan. Die verhandeling demonstreer dat dit nie moontlik is nie. / Philosophy, Practical and Systematic Theology / M.A. (Philosophy)
