There is something magical about shoes… They can create an irresistible desire or be the one thing that we want to get rid of the most at the end of a long day. When people by shoes the chose more out of appearance rather then comfort. The result is a fact. The feet feel tired and soar after a couple of hours and the only thoughts are about the aching feet that firmly object to the way there being treated. Who will say no to a relaxing foot massage in this moment? …Sometimes they seem to have shrunken after a couple of hours… Does your legs feel heavy and swollen when you are sitting down for a couple of hours, maybe in front of the computer or during a flight? Do you have or are you starting to get visible veins alongside your legs? Do your feet often turn cold? Then maybe you are one of the 40 % in Sweden who suffers from reduced circulation of the blood, a so called vein insufficiency. This projects aims to find a solution that will ease the pain for a foot that feels tired and soar, beside this a solution that also increases the blood circulation in the legs during a longer time sitting down. The work has been carried out according to the principles of DPD - Dynamic Product Development (Ottosson, 2002). The project started with an idea and resulted in a product that is ready for the market. The project has resolved in two different solutions hence the problem was separated into two that would hopefully be introduced on the market shortly: Solution one is a massage slipper Njuta (English = Enjoy) that easy and quickly eases the pain in the feet with an adjustable foot massage. The tramp machine Cirkulera (English= Circulate) is used to keep the blood circulation going and prevent possible complaint. The solution activates the muscle pump so it can help to press the blood back up to the heart through the veins and this will prevent the blood from in slogging in the feet and legs.

UNDERVISNING VID DIABETES - hur sjuksköterskan genom undervisning förebygger fotsår hos diabetespatienterBacinski, Lukas, Borgström, Filip January 2005 (has links)
Varje år drabbas ett stort antal diabetiker av fotsårsproblem och det är vår uppgift som sjuksköterskor att genom olika former av undervisning försöka förebygga dessa. Syftet med studien var att undersöka hur sjuksköterskan genom undervisning bidrar till att förebygga fotsår hos patienter med diabetes. Metoden är en litteraturstudie med granskning av tio vetenskapliga artiklar. Resultatet presenterades som två teman, undervisning och kunskap och det framgår att sjuksköterskan kan använda sig av både individuell och gruppundervisning för att förebygga fotsår. Kunskapsnivån har visat sig vara bristfällig vad gäller god omvårdnad vid fotvård och författarna menar att en bidragande faktor till detta kan vara attityder till fötter samt kunskaper i sårvård. Hjälpmedel som används för att underlätta inlärning kan vara telefonrådgivning och skriftligt material. I gruppundervisning finns det utrymme för deltagarna att utbyta erfarenheter och kunskaper sinsemellan. Som sjuksköterska kan man med enkla medel t ex fotinspektion och tånagelklippning förebygga fotsår. / Every year many diabetic are struck by foot ulcer problems and it is our duty as nurses to try to prevent this through different types of education. The aim of this study was to examine how the nurse through education contributes to prevent foot ulcer among patients with diabetes. The method is a literature study by ten scientifical articles that had been reviewed. The result was presented as two themes, education and knowledge and it is also being clear that the nurse can use both individual and group education to prevent foot ulcers. The level of knowledge has proven to be insufficient when it comes to good care of the feet and the authors mean that the main factor towards this could be attitudes towards feet and knowledge about ulcer care. A nurse can use simple means like for exampel foot inspection and toenail clipping to prevent foot ulcers.

Knowledge and practices regarding foot care among patients with Type 2 diabetes in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam : A quantitative studyThunberg, Stina, Hellenberg, Sofia January 2013 (has links)
Introduction: Previous research shows that knowledge and practice was low in type 2 diabetes patients and that women had better practice/self-care than men. Aim: The aim of this study was to investigate the knowledge and practices regarding foot-care among patients with type 2 diabetes in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, and also investigate if there was any difference between genders in knowledge and practicing of foot care. Method: This study was a descriptive and cross-sectional design with quantitative method. The data was collected at the out-patient clinic of the University Medical Center in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam and 100 patients participated voluntarily to answer questionnaire. Orem’s self-care theory was used as theoretical framework. Data were analysed by using statistics. Result: The result shows that more than 70% of the patients had good knowledge of foot care and no significant differences between the genders in the knowledge. Their foot care practices were various. There was significant difference between men and women about using a hot water bottle or heating pad on the feet, and more women than men did. For type of shoes, there were differences between genders in wearing broad, round toes and shoes made of leather or canvas, and more men than women did. Conclusion: The knowledge of foot care was good, but the practice of foot care was low. There was not found any significant difference between the genders in knowledge, but some differences in the foot care practices. More information about foot care is needed to prevent complications with type 2 diabetes. / Introduktion: Tidigare forsknings resultat visar att kunskapen om egenvård och utförande av fotvård hos patienter med diabetes typ 2 var låg. Kvinnorna var dock bättre på att utföra egenvården än männen. Syfte: Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka kunskapen och utförandet av egenvård hos patienter med diabetes typ 2 i Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, samt att undersöka om det fanns några skillnader mellan män och kvinnor i kunskapen om egenvård inom fotvård samt dess utförande. Metod: För att undersöka detta gjordes en kvantitativ tvärsnittsstudie med hjälp av enkäter. Det var 100 patienter på en mottagning vid University Medical Center, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, som deltog frivilligt. Orems egenvård teori användes som teoretiskt ramverk i detta arbete. Data analyserades av statistik. Resultat: Resultatet i denna studie påvisar att mer än 70 % av patienternas visade god kunskap och inga signifikanta skillnader fanns mellan kvinnor och män gällande kunskapsnivån. Utförandes av fotvården visade sig dock vara varierande och det fanns signifikanta skillnader mellan kvinnor och män gällande fotvården. Kvinnor använde sig oftare av varma pads och flaskor på deras fötter än vad männen gjorde. Kvinnor och män använde också olika typer av skor. Männen använde oftare breda skor med rundad tå, skor av läder eller canvas skor än vad kvinnorna gjorde. Slutsats: Kunskapen om fotvård hos diabetes patienter i Ho Chi Minh City var god, dock var utförandet av fotvården varierande i denna studie. Det visades ingen signifikant skillnad mellan kvinnor och män angående kunskapsnivån, dock fanns det skillnader angående utförandet av fotvården. Det behövs fortsatt information om fotvård för att patienter med typ 2 diabetes ska förhindra komplikationer
