Metodologija raziskovanja. V diplomskem delu je uporabljena deskriptivna metoda dela. Podatke o pacientki smo pridobili v obliki intervjuja s pomočjo delno strukturiranega vprašalnika.

Spoznali smo tudi, da se pri pacientki pojavljajo čustvene težave kot so prizadetost, zaskrbljenost, potrtost, prestrašenost, odklanjanje določenih stikov, zmanjšana komunikacija v družbi in zbujanje ponoči.
