Abstract     Field monitoring and data collecting as a part of ethnographic approach may be defined as an acitvity which in close contact with individuals and groups of drug users that can not be efficiently reached by already existing epidemiology services. This kind of work frequently represent public health norms which are not usual with us. Field workers act in streets, pubs, in users homes etc. So they find themselves in areas with different, subculture standards where stabile relationships and co-operation between researchers and their partners in insitutions are difficult to make. Of course, the data collecting out of the health institutions is a challenge at the same time, which brings unique opportunities to study the problem with help of monitoring and questioning about ritualc connected with drug use.
Summary     Terensko opazovanje in zbiranje podatkov kot del etnografskega pristopa lahko definiramo kot dejavnost, ki je v tesnem stiku s posamezniki in skupinami uporabnikov drog, ki jih že obstoječe epidemiološke službe ne dosežejo učinkovito. Pogosto predstavlja to delo delovni pristop zunaj pri nas ustaljenih javnozdravstvenih norm. Terenski delavci delujejo na ulicah, v gostinskih lokalih, na domovih uživalcev drog ipd. Tako se znajdejo v področjih drugačnih, subkulturnih standardov, kjer je pogosto zelo težko vzpostaviti trdne odnose in sodelovanje, ki jih ponavadi srečujemo v tradicionalnih odnosih in komunikacijah med raziskovalci in njihovimi strankami v institucijah. Seveda je zbiranje podatkov zunaj zdravstvenih ustanov obenem tudi izziv, ki prinaša edinstvene priložnosti za preučevanje problema s pomočjo opazovanja in spraševanja o obredih v zvezi z uživanjem drog.
