Leger som folkehelsearbeidere, praksisendring mot et helsefremmende perspektiv? : En studie med fenomenografisk tilnærming / General practitioners (GPs) as public health workers: modifying practice toward health promotion perspectives? : A phenomenographic study.

Storebakken, Jørgen January 2010 (has links)
Bakgrunn: I senere år har det blitt en økende oppmerksomhet på forebygging av sykdom gjennom helsefremmende tiltak i forhold til livsstilsendring. Allmennprakitiserende leger er viktige samarbeidspartnere. Studier viser at en relativt liten del av befolkningen mottar slik rådgivning. Mål: Studiet hadde til hensikt å beskrive de ulike erfaringene allmennpraktiserende leger med å arbeide som folkehelsearbeidere med et helsefremmende perspektiv med fokus på livsstilsintervensjon. Metode: Studiet benyttet en kvalitativ og fenomenografisk tilnærming for innsamling og analyse av data. 26 allmennpraktikere ble strategisk valgt (kjønn, alder, arbeidserfaring, kommunestørrelse). Data innsamlet i 2007 fra seks fokusgrupper med utgangspunkt temaene livsstilsendring, motivasjon, pasienterfaringer og legenes egne erfaringer på området. Resultat: Tre deskreptive kategorier framkom; (A) Dramatisk inngripen, (B) En travel hverdag og (C) Det gylne øyeblikk med to respektive fire underkategorier. I kategorien A fremkom det at allmennlegene oppfattet livsstilsintervensjon som et vanskelig område å diskutere med pasienten, og var opptatt av maktrelasjonen i forhold til pasienten. Mange av dem oppga usikkerhet i forhold til en slik oppgave. I kategori B beskrev legene utenforliggende årsaker som de oppfattet begrenset intervensjon i forhold til levevaner. I kategori C beskrev legene hvordan de griper fatt i de gode situasjonene for intervensjon. Gjennom en syntese av resultatene foreslås en modell for praksisendring. Konklusjon: Den norske fastlegeordningen skaper et ”kjøper/selger forhold” mellom lege og pasient, noe som uheldigvis kan bidra til uklare maktrelasjoner. Mange av legene i studiet manglet kunnskap om folkehelse og helsefremmende perspektiv i sitt daglige arbeid. Modellen som beskrives, fokuserer på synergieffekten mellom behovet for å avgjøre hvilken prosess som reelt resulterer i helsefremmende arbeidet og en identifisering av de prosesser som legene annerkjenner som ”gylne øyeblikk”. Modellen kan benyttes som en diskusjon i nye fokusgruppediskusjoner med mål, å endre praksis mot et mer helsefremmende perspektiv. / Background: In recent years attention have increased on disease prevention and health promotion through lifestyle intervention. General practitioners (GPs) are important partners in this effort. Different studies indicate that relatively few GP-patient-populations receive this type of advice. Aim: The aim of this study was to describe GPs various experiences of working within the field of public health and especially from a health promotion perspective with focus on life style interventions Methods: The study used a qualitative and phenomenographic approach to collecting and analyzing data. Twenty six GPs were strategically selected (gender, age, work experience, sizes of communities). Data was collected in 2007 from six focus group developed on the basis of lifestyle changes, motivation, patient experiences, and GPs’ own experience with these subjects. Findings: Three categories emerged: (A) Dramatic intervention, (B) Busy workday, and (C) The golden moment. In category A, the GPs describe how they experience lifestyle intervention as a difficult theme to discuss with their patients. They were concerned about the risk of disrupting the balance imbalance of power, thereby depreciating the patients. In category B, the GPs describe ulterior causes for limitations in intervention-strategy towards lifestyle changes. Category C describes how GPs seize the opportunity provided by optimal moments for intervention. Synthesizing the focus group results yielded a model for modifying current health promotion practice. Conclusion: The Norwegian medical system uses a listing system to assign patients to a specific physician, a practice that gives the doctor/patient relationship an element of “purchase and sale” that unfortunately may influence the balance of power between GP and patient. Most GPs lacked sufficient knowledge of public health and health promotion in their daily work. The model described in this thesis focuses on the synergistic effects between the need to determine which processes actually result in health promotion and further identifying those processes GP recognizes as “Golden moment.” The model described here can be used as a point of departure for new focus group discussions aiming to modify medical practice towards health promotion perspectives. / <p>ISBN 978-91-85721-81-8</p>

Suburbanization In Turkiye Within The Process Of Integration To Global Development And A New Life-style Settlement

Erisen, Oya 01 December 2003 (has links) (PDF)
This study aims to analyze the emergence and evaluation of a new type of suburbanization in T&uuml / rkiye, which are concomitant with the rise of new middle class having a high purchasing power. It examines different urbanization and suburbanization processes in various societies and demonstrates that the suburbanization of T&uuml / rkiye does not exactly fit in these models. Such a suburban expansion is taking place under the prevailing impact of political economy in the world and leads to a social segregation within metropolitan areas, which is argued to become permanent. Upper middle class have developed privatized, enclosed, and monitored exclusive spaces of residence, work, leisure, and consumption. The main focus of the study, therefore, is the gated communities, which is the last extension of suburbanization. In this thesis, the gated communities are mainly residential in character and offer a new concept of life-style, which is based upon the idea of total security and retreat from the illnesses of the urban core in terms of noise, dust, disorder, crowds and related issues. It is argued that, in the specific case of Angora Evleri-Kooperatif-18, gated communities can be viewed as a further theme of fragmentation of the city of Ankara. The new urban fragmentation indicates a dual process of increasing social and spatial polarization on the urban land. These dualities have been identified in society. One part of the society has experienced affluence, and success while the other has suffered degradation. The economic growth has been at the expense of sharp increases both at the top and bottom ends of the income distribution. Social inequality, in return, has manifested itself spatially.

Life style: progress in measuring life style and its relation with other psychological concept / Estilo de vida: avances en su medida y sus relaciones con otros conceptos psicológicos

Sánchez López, María del Pilar, Aparicio García, Marta 25 September 2017 (has links)
Studies on life styles ha ve driven us to consider three studies which analyse the concept and its relationship with other psychological variables. The first study presents an analysis of the activities carried out by a person, asan operational definition of life styles using ADIT self-registering (Self-Registeringof Time Distribution, SRTD), considering individuals who interact with subject in those activities. In the second study, modifications to the original self-record are suggested; eg, the sectionthat registers where and with whom are carried out the activities was eliminated. In the third study, the relationships among life styles, life satisfaction and personality variables are analysed. Therewere 84 persons in the sample assigned to 6 groups, depending on the relationships among these three concepts, as was previously suggested by other studies / Los estudios sobre estilos de vida (EV) conducen a plantear tres investigaciones que analizan elc oncepto y sus relaciones con otras variables psicológicas. Primero, se presenta el análisis de las actividades realizadas por la persona, como operativización de los estilos de vida a partir del autorregistro ADIT (Autorregistro de Distribución del Tiempo) en relación con las personas con las que lossujetos realizan dichas actividades. Segundo, se plantean modificaciones del autorregistro original; por ejemplo, se eliminó el apartado que registra dónde y con quién se realiza las actividades. Tercero.se analizan las relaciones entre los EV, la satisfacción vital y las variables de personalidad en 84 personas. Estas se organizan en seis grupos, de acuerdo con las relaciones entre estos tres conceptos,como se ha venido apuntando en trabajos previos

Vědomostní úroveň o problematice zdravímu studentů, adolescentů na školách technického zaměření / The level of knowledge about health issues for students at the secondary technical school

FLÉGLOVÁ, Kristýna January 2016 (has links)
This master thesis deals with finding level of knowledge about healthy lifestyle and evaluating eating habits among adolescent boys studying at technical colleges. The work consists of two main parts, the theoretical and the research (practical). The theoretical part is focused on defining the major concepts and characteristics of adolescence, the teaching health education at secondary schools and recommendations in terms of movement and supplements to adolescent age. The research part focuses on the evaluation of knowledge regarding the health and eating habits of the above sample. The results were compared with those already available findings from previous studies. It was managed to collect 134 completed tests of knowledge regarding to health and physical activity and their associated questionnaires about dietary habits. Based on the results of the knowledge test, it was found that the average results reached zone below average. Furthermore, on the basis of evaluation of research assumptions, it was found that higher health knowledge does not affect the optimal body weight. Education in the field of eating disorders is probably insufficient. As apparent from certain results, health education should always find its place in the curriculum so that pupils receive a sufficient amount of information to be encouraging to find another informations by themselves on their own initiative.

No. of bitstreams: 1 Ana Paula Costa Velten.pdf: 1394815 bytes, checksum: 4567003aac749ee044663dee25b84c95 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2013-03-22 / Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico / Esta pesquisa objetivou comparar o perfil de mortalidade dos Adventistas do Sétimo dia com o da população geral no período de 2003 a 2009 no estado do Espírito Santo. Tratou-se de um estudo descritivo que estudou todos os óbitos ocorridos no estado durante o período abordado, separando-se os mesmos em dois grupos: Adventista e população geral. A separação foi realizada através da busca dos nomes dos Adventistas falecidos, fornecidos pela administração da igreja, no banco estadual do Sistema de Informações sobre Mortalidade. Os grupos de óbitos foram descritos e distribuídos por capítulo da décima Classificação Internacional de Doenças. Foram também verificadas as médias de anos vividos dos grupos e as Razões de Mortalidade Padronizadas e intervalos de confiança de 95%. Os resultados apontam que os Adventistas morrem em maior proporção em faixas etárias mais avançadas em relação à população geral. As principais causas de morte para os Adventistas foram as doenças do aparelho circulatório (34,45%), neoplasias (20,06%) e causas externas (9,87%). Para à população geral as doenças do aparelho circulatório também foram a principal causa de morte (31,70%), seguidas das causas externas (18,57%) e neoplasias (15%). Os Adventistas apresentaram 4,57 anos a mais na média de anos vividos em relação à população geral. As Razões de Mortalidade Padronizadas dos Adventistas foram 55,87 (40,99 - 74,38) para as doenças do aparelho circulatório, 48,59 (24,3 86,84) para as doenças do aparelho respiratório, 15,48 (7,31 28,76) para as doenças do aparelho digestivo, e 41,3 (20,91 73,18) para as causas externas. Concluiu-se que embora não se conheça a medida da adoção das recomendações de saúde pelos Adventistas que obitaram há evidências de que as recomendações tenham influenciado beneficamente o perfil de mortalidade dos mesmos em relação à população geral / This study aimed to compare the mortality profile of Seventh-day Adventists with general population in the period 2003 to 2009 in the state of Espírito Santo, Brazil. This was a descriptive study that studied all deaths in the state during the period covered by separating them into two groups: Adventist and the general population.The separation was performed by searching the names of the deceased Adventists, provided by the administration of the church, in the state bank of Mortality Informations System. Groups of deaths were reported and distributed by the 10° chapter of the International Classification of Diseases. Was also checked the average years lived in groups and Standardized Mortality Ratios (SMR) and confidence intervals of 95%. The results show that Adventists die more often in older age groups relative to general population. The main causes of death for the Adventists were the circulatory diseases (34,45%), neoplasms (20,06%) and external causes (9,87%). For the general population the circulatory diseases were also the leading cause of death (31,70%), followed by external causes (18,57%) and neoplasms (15%). Adventists had 4.57 years on average over the years lived in the general population. The SMR of Adventists were 55,87 (40,99 74,38) for the circulatory diseases, 48,59 (24,3 86,84) for the respiratory diseases, 15,48 (7,31 28,76) for the digestive diseases, and 41,3 (20,91 73,18) for the external causes. It was concluded that although no one knows the extent of health recommendations adoption by the Adventist who died there is evidence that the recommendations have beneficially influenced the mortality profile of the same relative the general population

No. of bitstreams: 1 Pablo De Araujo.pdf: 169191 bytes, checksum: 993379aebcf098c7740d6793904f719f (MD5) Previous issue date: 2015-07-21 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / Introdução: A qualidade do sono constitui-se em parâmetro importante na avaliação da saúde em geral, sendo fator relevante na determinação de risco das doenças cardiovasculares. Objetivo: validar a versão adaptada do Índice de Qualidade do Sono de Pittsburgh (PSQI) para uso em programas de reabilitação cardiopulmonar e metabólica (RCPM) e avaliar a qualidade do sono em participantes de programa de RCPM. Método: trata-se de um estudo descritivo de corte transversal com amostragem não probabilística. A amostra foi constituída de participantes de programa de RCPM. Para análise estatística foi considerado intervalo de confiança de 95% e valor de significância p <0,05, para análise de consistência interna foi utilizado o alfa de Cronbach e para análise da relação entre componentes e itens com o escore total do questionário foi utilizada a correlação de Spearman. A qualidade do sono foi avaliada pela versão adaptada do PSQI. Resultados: foram avaliados 101 indivíduos de ambos os sexos, sendo 52,5% homens, com média de idade de 66,05 (±9,13) anos. Todos os componentes do questionário apresentaram boa consistência interna com valor de 0,72. Os componentes que mais se relacionaram com o escore total foram duração do sono e qualidade subjetiva do sono , e o que menos se relacionou foi alterações do sono . Dentre os itens a variação foi de 0.584 no item durante a última semana, em geral, como você classificaria a qualidade do seu sono? , até -0.611 no item durante a última semana, quantas horas você conseguia dormir durante a noite? . Foi possível observar que o item tossir ou roncar muito alto e frequência para dificuldades do sono por outras razões não apresentaram correlação com o escore total do questionário. Todos os componentes do PSQI apresentaram variação entre 0 e 3, o escore total apresentou variação entre 0 e 17, com média de 5.36 (±3.64). Os componentes do instrumento que obtiveram pontuação mais elevada foram: alterações do sono 1,20 (± 0,60); qualidade subjetiva do sono 0,92 (± 0,61) e duração do sono 0,83 (± 1,01). No escore total, 38,6% dos participantes apresentaram pontuação acima de cinco, sendo classificados como maus dormidores. Conclusão: A versão adaptada do PSQI é válida para ser utilizada em programas de RCPM. Conforme a classificação do escore total, mais de um terço dos participantes do programa de reabilitação apresentou sono de má qualidade. Os componentes mais comprometidos foram: alterações do sono, qualidade subjetiva do sono e a duração do sono.
