Previous issue date: 2018-05-03 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPES / Long-lived and fragile old age brings about the need for support in meeting daily needs
and instrumental life activities. At present, family ties do not meet these demands and,
therefore, adequate places for care such as the ILPIs (Long Stay Institution for the
Elderly) are needed, just as the presence of the formal caregiver is fundamental in
these institutions. This study was aimed at knowing the meanings and representations
that are created in the act of caring for fragile elderly people from the narratives of
formal caregivers who work in the care of the elderly and the fragile elderly, that is,
what are their profiles, their challenges, and their psychological, social and economic
resources. For this purpose, 22 women with employment relationships were
interviewed at two institutions and three ILPIs in the city of São Paulo. Those
professionals reported the fear of old age, the movement of the families of the elderly
at the institutions, the changes in their lives after they became caregivers, the affection
that permeates the act of caring, their difficulties in working life, the invisibility of the
profession, the fantasies about old age as well as the dependency that exists at this
stage of life / A velhice longeva e frágil introduz a necessidade de suporte para o atendimento das
necessidades diárias e das atividades de vida instrumentais. Na atualidade, os
vínculos familiares não suprem essas demandas, sendo necessário, portanto, locais
adequados para os cuidados, tais como a ILPI - Instituição de Longa Permanência
para Idosos, assim como é fundamental nessas instituições a presença da figura do
cuidador formal. Este estudo pretendeu conhecer os significados e as representações
que são produzidas no ato de cuidar de idosos frágeis a partir das narrativas de
cuidadoras formais que trabalham no cuidado a idosos longevos e frágeis, ou seja,
qual é seu perfil, seus desafios, bem como seus recursos psicológicos, sociais e
econômicos. Para tanto, foram entrevistadas 22 mulheres com vínculo empregatício
em duas instituições e em três ILPIs na cidade de São Paulo. Tais profissionais
relataram o medo da velhice, o movimento das famílias de idosos na instituição, as
mudanças em suas vidas após terem se tornado cuidadoras, o afeto que permeia o
ato de cuidar, suas dificuldades na vida laboral, a invisibilidade acerca da profissão,
as fantasias sobre a velhice, bem como a dependência existente nesta fase da vida

ondersteun en op volgehoue basis te ontwikkel met die oog op die bereiking
van die hoogste moontlike vlak van onafhanklikheid in die daaglikse lewe. Die
doel van hierdie studie was om die mate te bepaal waarin professionele

Situational control and well-being in the institutionalized elderlyLavoie, Cora Emily Marie January 1988 (has links)
This descriptive correlational study was designed to examine the relationship between situational control, and both psychological and physical well-being, in the institutionalized elderly. A convenience sample of 52 elderly institutionalized subjects was selected from two intermediate care facilities. The subjects completed the Perceived Weil-Being Scale, the Situational Control Of Daily Activities Scale, and the Subject Information Sheet. All residents were found to have an overall perception of situational control. However, residents perceived a lack of control for the daily activities of eating and grooming. The majority of residents obtained a moderately high score on the psychological well-being and physical well-being scales. No significant relationship was found between situational control and psychological well-being, or situational control and physical well-being. A significant positive relationship was found between psychological well-being and physical well-being. / Applied Science, Faculty of / Nursing, School of / Graduate

Attitudes toward end of life issues and preference of place of death in older people living in residential care homes in Hong Kong.January 2013 (has links)
研究背景: 居住於安老院舍的長者通常患有多種不可逆轉的慢性疾病或未期病症。相對其他組群,他們將更快面對臨終與死亡的問題。因此,了解他們對「臨終問題」的態度、臨終地方的選擇意向及其預測因素是非常重要的。研究所得資將有助提供優質的“善終“服務予這群弱勢的長者。 / 研究目的: 本研究旨在探討有關居於香港安老院舍的長者對「臨終問題」的態度、臨終地方的選擇意向、是否視安老院舍如同自己的家及其預測因素。 / 研究方法: 本研究採用橫斷面量性研究的方法,以便利抽樣方式在香港不同地區的安老院舍進行研究。研究對象為年齡65歲或以上,及簡短智能測試達6分或以上,並能以廣東話溝通的安老院舍長者。研究採用結構性問卷以面對面訪談形式進行,作者把「對臨終問題的態度調查問卷」翻譯成中文版本用作調查長者對臨終問題的態度。並採用EQ-5D和Barthel Index (20) 以評估長者的自我健康評估及日常生活自我照顧能的狀況。調查問卷亦包括探討長者對安老院視為自己的家的看法和死亡地點的選擇。收集之數據採用了二分類邏輯回歸進行各因素與結果變量之間的單因關聯分析,那些p值<0.25的因素被選定為候選自變量,然後利用逐步多因素邏輯回歸分析來劃定結果變量的獨立相關因素。 / 研究結果: 合共317名來自20間安老院舍的長者參與了此項研究,包括248名女性(78.2%)和69名男性(21.8%),年齡介乎65至99歲,平均年齡為84歲(標準差6.6)。多因素分析顯示多種預測因素與「臨終問題」的態度有著相關性;對於有家庭財政支持的長者來說,他們較傾向不同意由醫生作出所有有關照顧上的決定;有接受教育和患有較多慢性病的長者較傾向同意訂立預前指示;那些在安老院舍居住時間較長的長者較傾向不同意使用藥物讓他們可以隨時選擇結束生命;但患有糖尿病者較傾向同意安樂死;有宗教信仰者較傾向同意靈性或宗教的支持對他們是重要的。此外,310名安老院舍長者(97.8%)認為安老院舍如同自己的家。有261名長者 (68.1%) 表示希望在目前的安老院去世。那些認為安老院舍如同自己的家、有獨立經濟支持、及同意安樂死的院舍長者,較傾向希望在目前的安老院去世。 / 研究結論: 本研究譂述了居於香港安老院舍的長者對「臨終問題」的態度及其相關因素的實證結果。研究發現幾乎所有安老院舍的長者視安老院舍如同自己的家,明顯地相當多的長者表示如果條件允許下,希望在目前的安老院舍去世。這種強烈的聲音指出我們需要發展院舍的臨終照顧以滿足院舍長者的需要及期望。而從獲悉長者對「臨終問題」的態度及臨終地方的選擇意向,可讓醫護專業人員在安老院舍裡更有效地規劃臨終照顧服務,並能讓長者善終與好死。 / Background: Older people living in residential care homes for the elderly (RCHEs) have high incidences of irreversible chronic illnesses and terminal diseases. They are the most significant group facing impending death and dying. It is vital to understand their attitudes toward end of life (EOL) issues and their preference for EOL care in order to promote their quality of life. / Objective: This study aims to examine the attitudes toward EOL issues, the preference for place of death, the perception of RCHE as a resident’s own home and their predictors amongst older RCHE residents in Hong Kong. / Method: A cross-sectional quantitative study with convenience sampling was conducted in RCHE in different regions of Hong Kong. RCHE residents aged ≥65 achieving abbreviated mental test score ≥6 and who were able to communicate in Cantonese were recruited. Face-to-face interviews were conducted with the aid of a structured questionnaire. Demographic and clinical characteristics were collected. Health and functional status were measured by Euroqol-5D and Barthel Index (20). The “Attitudes of older people to end of life issues questionnaire“ was translated from the English version into a Chinese version and employed to examine the attitudes toward EOL issues. The perception of RCHE as own home and the preference for place of death were examined. Univariate analysis on the association between the outcome variables was performed. Factors with a p value <0.25 in univariate analyses were selected for multivariable logistic regression to delineate factors independently associated with the outcome. / Results: A total of 317 participants including 248 (78.2%) women and 69 (21.8%) men from 20 RCHE participated in the study. Their mean age was 84 ± 6.6 (mean ± SD). As showed in multivariate analysis, respondents financially supported by their family were less likely to allow doctors to make all the decisions about their care. Those respondents with higher number of morbidities and had higher education were more likely to agree with making a living will. Those who lived longer in RCHE were less likely to agree to having a drug at their disposal to end their life. Respondents with diabetic mellitus were more likely to agree with euthanasia. Respondents who followed a religion were more likely to agree on the importance of spiritual or religious support. Furthermore, 310 (97.8%) respondents perceived RCHE as their own home. Two hundred and sixteen (68.1%) residents wished to die in their present RCHE. Residents with the means to support themselves financially, agreed with euthanasia and who perceived RCHE as their own home were more likely to wish to die in RCHEs. / Conclusion: Nearly all residents perceived RCHEs as their own home and a significant proportion wished to die there if conditions allowed. This asserts that EOL care in RCHE should be developed to meet the wishes of the older residents. This study delineated significant factors associated with the attitudes of older people toward EOL issues. Knowing those factors allows health care professionals to plan for quality EOL care services in RCHEs more effectively and foster good death for this vulnerable population. / Detailed summary in

Previous issue date: 2018-07-30 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPES / Introduction: Much has been pointed out that in health institutions containment
practices are considered care actions. When one speaks of care one can say that
this means to preserve, to keep, to conserve, to support or to take care of. The
restraint to the elderly person has, however, been understood in several ways. These
include mechanisms and methods that, in some way, limit the person, reducing
spontaneous body movement, understood as any restrictive measure of daily life. In
this sense, the practice of containing older people has been commonly used in
individuals with certain conditions of fragility, when others assume responsibility for
them. Objectives: The purpose of this study is to understand the reasons that
nurses are taking to restrain the elderly in Long-Term Care Institutions for the Elderly
(ILPIs). Methods: We interviewed 32 nurses, who work in the region of Pará, Santa
Catarina and São Paulo. Data collection and analysis of the proposed interviews
used a qualitative methodology based on authors such as Minayo and Turano, who
helped to understand the objective issues. Results: The research is based on the
analysis of content of Bardin, through studies that made it possible to understand
what nurses working in a long-term institution understand by containment. The work
was categorized and organized into three themes based on the questionnaire
response: a) the profile of the professionals interviewed; b) what the professionals
understand by containment; c) care in the perspectives of the nurses interviewed.
Conclusion: Through this study we identified that although the professionals have
the conscience that is practiced is not beneficial to the elderly. They continue to use
for lack of choice, due to institutional requirements, environmental conditions,
mobilization equipment for the elderly, to avoid falls and often for lack of knowledge
of the subject / Introdução: Muito se tem apontado que, em instituições de saúde, as práticas de
contenção são consideradas ações de cuidado. Quando se fala de cuidado pode-se
dizer que este significa preservar, guardar, conservar, apoiar ou tomar conta. A
contenção à pessoa idosa vem sendo, no entanto, entendida de várias formas. Entre
elas estão inclusos mecanismos e métodos que, de alguma maneira, limitam a
pessoa, diminuindo o movimento corporal espontâneo, entendida como qualquer
medida restritiva do cotidiano. Nesse sentido, a prática de contenção de pessoas
idosas tem sido, comumente, empregada em indivíduos com determinadas
condições de fragilidade, quando outros assumem a responsabilidade por elas.
Objetivos: O objetivo deste trabalho é compreender quais são os motivos que
levam as enfermeiras a praticar a contenção na pessoa idosa em Instituições de
Longa Permanência para Idosos (ILPI’s). Métodos: Foram entrevistadas 32
enfermeiras, que atuam na região do Pará, Santa Catarina e São Paulo. A coleta de
dados e análise das entrevistas propostas utilizou uma metodologia qualitativa.
Resultados: O estudo possibilitou compreender o que as enfermeiras, que
trabalham em Instituição de Longa Permanência, entendem por contenção. Os
resultados foram categorizados e organizados em três temáticas, com base nas
respostas obtidas: a) o perfil das profissionais entrevistadas; b) o que elas
entendem por contenção; e c) o cuidado nas perspectivas das enfermeiras
entrevistadas. Os principais motivos que as levam à prática da contenção são: evitar
quedas e agitação psicomotora. Conclusão: Através deste estudo identificamos que
apesar das profissionais terem a consciência que essa prática não é benéfica ao
idoso, continuam, ainda assim, a utilizando por falta de opção, por exigência
institucional, por condições de ambiente, equipamentos de mobilização do idoso
para evitar quedas e, muitas das vezes, por falta de conhecimento em relação ao
tema
