[Home dialysis (author's transl)].

100 patients requiring dialysis were trained between 1970 and 1975. Up to 31. 12. 1975, 56 patients were on home dialysis, 10 on the self-care program and 6 were freshly trained. Training usually lasts 8 weeks. The training course is briefly presented and the supervision of home dialysis patients after discharge from training is described. The possibility of vacation plays an important role in social rehabilitation. Since the spring of 1976, the hospital has operated a camping dialysis bus, the use of which is reported.

[Psychocomatic aspects in colectomized patients].

Patients who have undergone colectomy can be divided into two groups: 1. patients with mainly psychosomatic diseases (ulcerative colitis, ileitis terminalis Crohn) and 2. patients with mainly neoplastic diseases of the colon or rectum. The patients of the first group suffer from their symptoms for a longer time and often want to undergo an operation. Although they have considerable personality changes in a neurotic sense they tolerate the operation better than the patients of the second group. These are suddenly confronted with the fact that an operation is necessary. The physician is confronted with depressive reactions of the patients. A satisfying relationship between the patient and his doctor has to be regarded as the basis of the treatment. Additional psychopharmacotherapy, special psychotherapeutic training or/and self-help-groups, e.g. the International Ostomy Association (IOA), can then be considered.
