Аннотация
BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to understand the experiences of primary caretakers (PCTs) with a child diagnosed with celiac disease (CeD). There is paucity of research in understanding the experiences of PCTs of children with CeD in India.
METHODS: Purposive sampling was used to select PCTs of CeD-affected children from a tertiary hospital in New Delhi. Ten PCTs took part in the investigation. To gather the data, semi-structured interviews were held with participants. Hindi was used to administer the interviews.
RESULTS: The current study focused on the difficulties and worries PCTs experience in managing CeD. The main themes and sub-themes that emerged from the data were diagnosis of CeD (misdiagnosis of CeD, late diagnosis of CeD, feelings at the time of diagnosis, help from a doctor/nutritionist at the time of diagnosis); characteristics of CeD (CeD as a new disease, CeD as an allergy); attitude towards wheat (wheat as a poison, ignorance regarding negative effect of wheat); influence of significant others (making fun of the child, queries from others are a source of worry, non-acceptance of celiac disease by others and pressure to give gluten to the child); issues in following gluten-free diet (GFD) (fear of cross-contamination, distrust on GFD available outside home, GFD is expensive, making GFD is difficult, joint family, non-adherence to GFD, making non-GFD along with GFD); effect of CeD (financial effect of CeD, effect on physical and mental health of the child and PCT, effect on social life, change in family dynamics, eating restrictions); management of CeD (GFD for the whole family to manage CeD, family support to manage CeD, adhering to GFD, early diagnosis); and concerns (future marital concern for the child, cure of CeD, proper physical growth).
CONCLUSION: The current study gave an understanding of how PCTs dealt with a child's CeD. The difficulties and worries of caretakers should be taken into consideration and appropriate recommendations made to lessen the strain of managing the child's CeD and the daily obstacles associated with it.
