"Prevenção de complicações nos pés de pessoas com diabetes mellitus: uma abordagem da prática baseada em evidências" / Prevention of foot complications in diabetes mellitus patients: an evidence-based practice approachKattia Ochoa Vigo 08 June 2005 (has links)
Mais de 50% das amputações não-traumáticas em membros inferiores são atribuídas ao diabetes. Anualmente, 2 a 3% dos pacientes desenvolvem úlceras nos pés e este risco aumenta para 15% no transcurso de sua vida. Freqüentemente, úlceras nos membros inferiores precedem as amputações. Entre os casos graves hospitalizados, 85% foram causados por úlceras superficiais acompanhadas de diminuição da sensibilidade, decorrente de neuropatia diabética. O objetivo do estudo foi elaborar uma proposta assistencial sistematizada para pessoas com diabetes tipo 2, a partir de uma revisão sistemática, visando a prevenir o risco de lesão/ulceração nos pés e avaliar a efetividade dessa proposta em unidades da rede básica. Estudos primários e diretrizes clínicas foram identificados em bases eletrônicas, sites específicos e referências. Para análise dos estudos e diretrizes, utilizaram-se critérios estabelecidos. Na aplicação da proposta de assistência, 101 pessoas com diabetes tipo 2 foram recrutadas para participar do ensaio prospectivo de 12 meses; 49 pessoas participaram de sensibilização e educação intensiva durante seis semanas e, após este período, compareceram a consultas mensais de enfermagem para reforços e cuidados com os pés; outras 52 receberam cuidado convencional e participaram de orientações grupais semestrais. A avaliação semestral dos resultados primários incluiu o conhecimento sobre diabetes e cuidados com os pés e calçados, condições dermatológicas dos pés e uso de calçado apropriado. Os resultados apresentaram a identificação de 3.941 artigos, sendo selecionados apenas 10 estudos primários e nove diretrizes, os quais envolviam a organização do serviço para o cuidado da pessoa com diabetes e intervenções educativas nos pacientes. Os estudos revisados foram inconclusivos, apresentando falhas na qualidade metodológica. As intervenções preventivas se concentraram na realização de screening para identificar alterações estruturais nos pés, comprometimento da sensibilidade protetora plantar, ressaltando antecedente de úlcera, controle glicêmico e aconselhamento sobre a propriedade dos calçados. No ensaio clínico, 20 pessoas abandonaram o estudo. Os grupos foram semelhantes em idade, sexo, escolaridade, tempo de doença, co-morbidades e antecedentes de lesões nos pés. Ao final do primeiro semestre, houve melhora significativa apenas nas variáveis de conhecimento sobre diabetes (p=0,005) e comportamentos de cuidados com os pés (p<0,000). Ao término do ensaio, houve melhora nas condições dermatológicas dos pés (p<0,000) e na utilização de calçado apropriado (p=0,005), sendo mantido o conhecimento atingido previamente (p<0,000). Este trabalho mostrou a importância do monitoramento dos fatores de risco nos pés para lesão/ulceração, destacando o processo educativo entre profissionais e pacientes como medida fundamental de prevenção. Além disso, este estudo proporcionou subsídios para uma proposta efetiva de assistência sistematizada na prevenção de lesões/ulcerações nos pés, com desenvolvimento de consultas mensais e cuidados básicos com os pés entre pessoas de baixo risco / Diabetes is considered responsible for more than 50% of non-traumatic lower limb amputations. Every year, about 2-3% of patients develop foot ulcers, and this risk increases to 15% throughout their lives. Lower limb ulcers frequently precede amputations, 85% of serious hospitalizations cases were caused by superficial ulcers, accompanied by decreased sensibility due to diabetic neuropathy. This study aimed to elaborate a systematic care proposal for patients with type 2 diabetes, based on a systematic review, with a view to preventing the risk of developing foot injury/ulceration, as well as to assess the efficacy of this proposal in district basic health units. Electronic databases, specific sites and references were used to identify primary studies and clinical guidelines. Established criteria were used to analyze the studies and guidelines. In the application of the care proposal, 101 diabetes type 2 patients were recruited to participate in the 12-month prospective trial; 49 persons participated in an intensive six-week educational awareness program, after which they attended monthly appointments for reinforcement and foot care; 52 other persons received conventional care and participated in six-monthly group orientations. The six-monthly evaluation of primary results included knowledge on diabetes, foot and footwear care, dermatological foot conditions and use of appropriate footwear. The results showed that 3,941 articles were identified, of which only 10 primary studies and nine guidelines were selected, which involved service organization for diabetes patient care and educational patient interventions. The reviewed studies were inconclusive and presented methodological flaws. Preventive interventions concentrated on screening to identify structural foot alterations, protective sensibility in the sole of the foot at risk, emphasizing history of ulcers; glycemic control and advice on appropriate footwear. In the clinical trial, 20 persons abandoned the study. The groups had similar age, gender, education, co-morbidity and foot injury antecedent characteristics. At the end of the first semester, only the knowledge variables on diabetes (p= .005) and foot care behavior (p< .000) revealed a significant improvement. At the end of the trial, the improvement in these two variables was maintained (p< .000), and accompanied by an improvement in dermatological foot conditions (p< .000) and in the use of appropriate footwear (p= .005). This research demonstrated the importance of monitoring risk factors for foot injuries/ulceration and highlighted the education process between professionals and patients as a fundamental prevention measure. Moreover, this study provided supported for an efficient systematic care proposal in the prevention of foot injuries/ulcerations, including monthly appointments and basic foot care, for low-risk patients.

Prevalência de úlcera por pressão em pacientes em assistência domiciliária em um distrito de saúde de Ribeirão Preto / Pressure ulcer prevalence in home care patients from a health district in the city of Ribeirão Preto.Emília Maria Paulina Campos Chayamiti 13 October 2008 (has links)
A ocorrência de úlcera por pressão (UPP) nos pacientes atendidos nos serviços de saúde é um problema significante tanto para os indivíduos como para os familiares e instituições do mundo todo. Os pacientes com restrição de mobilidade são os que têm maior risco. A assistência domiciliária pode contribuir com o atendimento humanizado na promoção da saúde e prevenção da doença assim como para orientar e acompanhar os cuidadores domiciliares no atendimento das necessidades dos pacientes com condições crônicas que estão sujeitos a complicações como a UPP. Este estudo é do tipo descritivo e quantitativo e teve como objetivos identificar nos pacientes em assistência domiciliária em um Distrito de Saúde, as características sóciodemográficas e clínicas, o escore de risco para a UPP pela escala de Braden; a prevalência de pacientes com UPP; as características da lesão e as medidas utilizadas para prevenção e tratamento. A população foi 47 pacientes, com 76,7% na faixa etária de 60 a 80 anos, 51% do sexo feminino, 42,5% casados, 85% de cor branca; predominância de escolaridade no nível fundamental 1 incompleto; 48,9% recebiam entre 3 a 5 salários mínimos; 91,5% pacientes eram dependentes de cuidadores. As morbidades mais freqüentes foram as doenças do sistema circulatório (63,8%) e do sistema nervoso (48,9%). Para 48,9% dos pacientes a restrição da mobilidade ocorreu em decorrência da própria doença. O escore médio da Escala de Braden foi 17, mínimo 10 e máximo 23 e os idosos tinham escores mais baixos. Nove pacientes tinham UPP (prevalência 19,1%). A localização anatômica de maior freqüência foi a região do trocânter do fêmur (29,4%) e a região dos calcâneos (23,5%). Quanto a classificação das UPP, o maior percentual (35,3%) encontrado foi no estágio I e 29,4% no estágio IV. Quanto ao tempo da lesão, 58,8% das UPP haviam surgido há 4 meses. Quanto a dimensão, mais de 40% das lesões tinham mais de 8 cm2 . Em referência às características do leito das feridas, 11 apresentavam mostravam sinais de cicatrização e 6 apresentavam esfacelo ou necrose. Embora 70% da população tivesse risco para UPP a grande maioria não utilizava as medidas básicas para prevenção da UPP. Em relação ao tratamento 29,4% citaram o uso de pomadas com antibióticos, medida desnecessária e contra-indicada; 35,3% citaram o uso de coberturas industrializadas e em 4 úlceras, foram utilizados produtos sem qualquer evidência como hipoglós, óleo de amendoim e talco. Considerando as características de cada paciente que apresentou a UPP como a idade, morbidade referida e escore da Escala de Braden é possível compreender que os fatores agiram sinergisticamente para o desenvolvimento da lesão e que as medidas que poderiam diminuir o impacto do excesso de pressão como a redução do tempo em uma mesma posição e o uso de colchão adequado não foram utilizadas com freqüência. A articulação entre os níveis de atenção à saúde é fundamental para esta população para possibilitar o atendimento integral e contínuo. A construção de redes de apoio entre a família, comunidade e serviços poderá facilitar a resolução dos problemas encontrados. / The occurrence of pressure ulcers (PU) in patients seen at health services is a significant issue for the individuals as well as for their families and institutions across the world. Patients with restricted mobility are those at the highest risk. Home care should contribute with humanized care in health promotion and disease prevention, as well as with the process of instructing and following home caregivers in their meeting the needs of patients with chronic conditions subject to complications like pressure ulcers. The objectives of this descriptive quantitative study were to identify the sociodemographic and clinical characteristics of home care patients in a health district, as well as their risk score for PU according to the Braden scale; the prevalence of patients with PU; the characteristics of the wound, and the measures used for prevention and treatment. The population consisted of 47 patients, with 76.7% in the age range of 60 to 80 years, 51% were women, 42.5% were married, and 85% were white. Most patients had incomplete fundamental studies, 48.9% received between 3 and 5 minimum salaries, and 91.5% were dependent on their caregivers. The most common morbidities were circulatory system (63.8%) and nervous system (48.9%) diseases. The mobility of 48.9% of patients was restricted due to the disease itself. The average score on the Braden Scale was 17 (minimum 10 and maximum 23), and the elderly had the lowest scores. Nine patients had PU (19.1% prevalence). The most frequent anatomic location was the femur trochanter region (29.4%) and the calcaneus (23.5%). In terms of PU classification, the higher percentage (35.3%) found was in stage I, and 29.4% in stage IV. As for wound time, 58.8% of PU had appeared four months before. In terms of the wounds dimension, over 40% were bigger than 8 cm2. Regarding the characteristics of the wound beds, 11 presented signs of healing, and six presented slough or necrosis. Although 70% of the population were at risk of PU, the majority did not use any basic PU prevention measures. As for treatment, 29.4% stated using ointments with antibiotics, which is unnecessary and contraindicated. Other 35.3% reported using industrialized dressings, and products without any evidence were used on four ulcers, like hipoglós®, peanut oil, and talc. The characteristics of each patient with PU, like age, referred morbidity and score on the Braden Scale make clear that the factors act synergistically toward the development of the wound. In addition, this shows that measures that could reduce the impact from the excessive pressure, like reducing the time in the same position and using an appropriate mattress were not frequently used. The articulation between health care levels is essential for this population in order to make integral and continuous health care possible. Constructing support networks between families, the community, and services could facilitate solving the identified problems.

Sjuksköterskors följsamhet till trycksårsprevention : En kvantitativ litteraturöversikt / Nurse’s compliance with pressure ulcer prevention : A quantitative literature reviewClaar, Claes, Fakhereddin, Sawsan, Jepping, Albin January 2021 (has links)
Trycksår är en vårdskada som orsakas av flera faktorer och skapar lidande för patienter. Årligen medför trycksår 50 000 extra vårddagar i Sverige och förlänger de redan belastade vårdköerna. Upp till 90 % av alla trycksår kan förebyggas med preventiva åtgärder. Trots riktlinjer och preventiva åtgärder mot trycksår uppstår fortfarande vårdskadan trycksår. Säker vård kännetecknas av att minimera riskerna för vårdskador. Syftet var att undersöka vilka faktorer som påverkar sjuksköterskors följsamhet till trycksårsprevention inom slutenvården. En kvantitativ litteraturöversikt har utförts med 12 artiklar, varav 10 inhämtade från Cinahl och Medline och två från manuell sökning. Litteraturöversiktens resultat visar att flera faktorer påverkar sjuksköterskors följsamhet till trycksårsprevention där kunskap var den största faktorn. Signifikanta skillnader sågs i att högre utbildning gav förbättrad trycksårsprevention och fördjupad kunskap medförde positiva attityder. Slutsatsen av litteraturöversikten ger en bild av hur kompetens, hög arbetsbelastning, organisationen och omvårdnadsarbetet påverkar sjuksköterskors följsamhet till trycksårsprevention. Studien ger en begränsad bild av hur dessa faktorer påverkar följsamheten, där kvalitativ forskning skulle kunna fastställa specifika problem sjuksköterskor upplever kring faktorerna mer djupgående. / Pressure ulcers is a care injury and is caused by several factors and cause patients suffering. Annually pressure ulcers entail 50 000 extra care days in Sweden and increases the already burdened care queues. Up to 90% of all pressure ulcers can be prevented with preventive measures. Despite guidelines and preventive measures the care injury pressure ulcers still occurs. Safe care is characterized by minimizing risks for care injuries. The aim was to examine factors that affect nurses’ compliance with pressure ulcer prevention in inpatient care. A quantitative literature review has been performed with 12 articles, 10 were collected from Cinahl and Medline and two with manual search. The result shows that several factors affected nurse’s compliance to pressure ulcer prevention where knowledge were the biggest factor. Significant differences were seen with that higher education gave better pressure ulcer prevention and higher education gave better attitude. Conclusion of this literature review provides a picture of how competence, heavy workload, the organization and nursing work affects nurse's compliance with pressure ulcer prevention. This study provides a limited picture of how these factors affect compliance, where qualitative research could determine specific problems nurses experience around these factors more in depth.

Sjuksköterskors erfarenhet av trycksårsprevention inom slutenvården : En litteraturstudie / Nurses’ experience of pressure ulcer prevention in hospital : A literature reviewAnderberg, Jessika, Ståhl, Anna January 2023 (has links)
Bakgrund: Trycksår är en skada i huden samt underliggande vävnad som kan uppstå efter tryck eller skjuv. Patienter som drabbas av trycksår uttrycker att det medför ett stort fysiskt, psykiskt och socialt lidande. Sjuksköterskan är ansvarig för omvårdnadsarbetet där trycksårsprevention är en del av det förebyggande arbetet och inbegriper riskbedömning, hudbedömning samt regelbunden repositionering. Syfte: Syftet med litteraturstudien var att belysa sjuksköterskors erfarenheter av trycksårsprevention inom slutenvården. Metod: Kvalitativ litteraturstudie baserad på 10 artiklar med kvalitativ studiedesign som inhämtats från databaserna Cinahl och Pubmed. De utvalda artiklarnas resultat analyserades genom konventionell innehållsanalys. Resultat: Genom innehållsanalysen utkristalliserades huvudkategorier och subkategorier ur artiklarnas resultat. Resultatet utformades i två huvudkategorier: Vårdteamet och Arbetsmiljö och sex subkategorier: Prevention, Kommunikation, Undersköterskan, Patienten, Organisatoriska faktorer och Hög arbetsbelastning. Konklusion: Sjuksköterskor hade erfarenhet av att vårdteamet och vårdgivarens organisatoriska ansvar hade en avgörande betydelse i arbetet med trycksårspreventionen. / Background: A pressure ulcer is an injury to the skin and underlying tissue that can occur after pressure or shear. Patients who suffer from pressure ulcers express that it causes great physical, psychological and social suffering. The nurse is responsible for the nursing work where pressure ulcer prevention is part of the preventive work and includes risk assessment, skin assessment and regular repositioning. Aim: The aim of the literature study was to shed light on nurses' experiences of pressure ulcer prevention in inpatient care. Method: Qualitative literature study based on 10 articles with a qualitative study design obtained from the databases Cinahl and Pubmed. The results of the selected articles were analyzed by conventional content analysis. Result: Through the content analysis, main categories and subcategories were crystallized from the results of the articles. The result was formed into two main categories: Care team and Work environment and six subcategories: Prevention, Communication, Nurse, Patient, Organizational factors and High workload. Conclusion: Nurses had experience that the care team and the caregiver's organizational responsibility had a decisive importance in the work with pressure ulcer prevention.

Preventing pressure ulcers in nursing homes : the development and feasibility assessment of a theory and research-informed care bundle interventionLavallee, Jacqueline January 2018 (has links)
Background: Many nursing home residents are at risk of developing a pressure ulcer, which is an area of localised damage to the skin and/or underlying tissue due to immobility, increasing age and co-morbidities. Whilst guidelines for the prevention of pressure ulcers exist, their implementation can be sub-optimal. Care bundles are a set of research-informed practices used to facilitate the implementation of evidence into practice and incorporating psychological theory within their development may enhance their effectiveness. I aimed to co-design and assess the feasibility of implementing a theory and research-informed pressure ulcer prevention care bundle intervention in a nursing home setting. Method: This thesis comprised four separate studies as part of an overall mixed methods research design. Firstly, I conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to determine the effects of care bundles per se on patient outcomes. I then conducted theory-informed qualitative, semi-structured interviews with nursing home care staff and NHS community-based nurses to explore the context of, and the barriers and facilitators to, pressure ulcer prevention in nursing homes. Next I co-designed a pressure ulcer prevention care bundle with 13 healthcare workers during a four hour workshop and supplemental email consultation. Using the Nominal Group Technique, we reached a consensus about the content of the care bundle. Following the steps of the Behaviour Change Wheel, I finalised the care bundle intervention. The final study involved a before-after study design where one nursing home implemented the care bundle intervention. I collected and analysed quantitative and qualitative data to gain a more holistic understanding of the feasibility issues related to the implementation. Findings: Findings from the systematic review suggested that care bundles may reduce the risk of negative outcomes in patients. These findings were based on very low quality evidence and the original study authors rarely reported adherence to the care bundle interventions. The theoretical understanding of the complexities in the prevention of pressure ulcers in nursing homes suggested there were four barriers and six facilitators, which my final care bundle intervention addressed. The co-designed care bundle intervention comprised three elements: support surfaces, skin inspection, repositioning; alongside three intervention functions and seven behaviour change techniques. In the final feasibility study, during the baseline period, there were 462 resident bed days and 5 new pressure ulcers recorded and in the intervention phase there were 1,181 resident bed days and no new pressure ulcers. The care bundle intervention appeared to be acceptable to the nursing home care staff and we have identified specific issues relating to the feasibility of implementing the care bundle intervention. Conclusions: The current research evidence-base for care bundles is poor. However, it was possible to co-design and implement a pressure ulcer prevention care bundle intervention for a nursing home setting. Further feasibility research is necessary before we can assess whether the care bundle intervention is effective in preventing pressure ulcers in nursing homes.

Kunskaper om och attityder till prevention av trycksår hos distriktssköterskor och sjuksköterskor inom kommunal hälso- och sjukvårdEriksson, Lena, Persson, Sara January 2017 (has links)
Bakgrund:Trycksår är ett stort och kostsamt problem för samhället som orsakar lidande ochsmärta hos patienten. Sjuksköterskan ska främja hälsa, förebygga ohälsa ochlindra lidande samt har ansvaret att identifiera risker och ordinera åtgärderför trycksårsprevention. Syfte medstudien var att beskriva och jämföra kunskap om och attityd till preventionav trycksår hos distriktssköterskan och sjuksköterskan inom kommunala hälso-och sjukvård. Metod: Beskrivande ochjämförande design med kvantitativ ansats. Enkäter delades ut till distriktsköterskor och sjuksköterskor som arbetade påsärskilt boende och hemsjukvård i fem kommuner. Det var 67 av 150 tillfrågadesom deltog i studien. Resultat: Resultatetvisade det att distriktsköterskans och sjuksköterskans kunskaper omtrycksårsprevention brister. Specifikt i frågorna omschema för lägesändring som minskar trycksårsrisken mest, avlastning av hälarpå tryckavlastande madrass, rätt sätt att reducera tryckkraften när en patientglider ner i en stol samt att syrebrist orsakar trycksår. Ingen signifikant skillnad mellan grupperna fannsgällande kunskap om trycksårsprevention. Attityden hos både distriktsköterskanoch sjuksköterskan var positiv och en signifikant skillnad fanns mellangrupperna. Distriktsköterskans hade en positivare attityd jämfört medsjuksköterskan. Sjuksköterskorna kändes sig mindre säker på sin förmåga attförebygga trycksår och distriktsköterskorna svarade i högre grad atttrycksårsprevention är en viktig uppgift. Slutsats:I föreliggande studie har deltagarna bristande kunskap om prevention avtrycksår och attityden hos både distriktsköterskan ochsjuksköterskan var positiv till trycksårsprevention. En skillnad mellangrupperna fanns där distriktsköterskan hade en positivare attityd jämfört medsjuksköterskan. / Introduction: Pressure ulcer is a common and expensive problem for society which causes suffering and pain for the patient. Registered nurses should promote health, prevent illness and relieve suffering and is responsible for identifying risk and prescribing measures for pressure ulcer prevention. The purpose of this study was to describe and compare district nurses and registered nurses knowledge and attitude to pressure ulcer prevention in municipal health care. The method: Descriptive and comparative design with quantitative approach. A questionnaire was distributed to district nurses and registered nurses who worked in nursing homes and home healthcare in five municipalities. It was 67 out of 150 respondents who participated in the study. The result: The result showed that district nurse and registered nurse’s lack in knowledge about pressure ulcer prevention. Specific in the question about position change that reduces pressure ulcer risk the most, relief of heels on pressure-reducing mattress, the right way to reduce the pressure force when a patient slides down in a chair and that oxygen deficiency causes pressure ulcer. No significant difference between the groups knowledge on pressure ulcer prevention was found. The attitude of both the district nurse and the registered nurse was positive and a significant difference was found between the groups. The district nurse had a more positive attitude compared to the registered nurse. Nurses felt less confident of their ability to prevent pressure ulcer and district nurses responded to a greater extent that pressure ulcer prevention is an important task. Conclusion: In this study, participants have insufficient knowledge about pressure ulcers prevention and the attitude of both the district nurse and the registered nurse was positive to pressure ulcer prevention. A difference between the groups was where the district nurse had a more positive attitude compared to the registered nurse.

Möjligheter och hinder för att förebygga trycksår : en icke- systematisk litteraturöversikt / Facilitators and barriers to prevent pressure ulcers : a non-systematic literature reviewTsitlakidou, Dimitra, Yoneyama, Emi January 2024 (has links)
Bakgrund Trycksår som uppstår under vårdtiden kan förebyggas. Dock utgör de fortfarande ettpågående säkerhets- och kvalitetsproblem inom vården. Olika evidensbaserade preventivainsatser finns för att undvika skadan. Trots detta är implementering i klinisk praxisbegränsad. En förståelse för de möjligheter och hinder i genomförandet av dessa insatser urolika perspektiv är av stor betydelse, så att riktade strategier kan införlivas igenomförandeplaner. Syfte Syftet var att belysa möjligheter och hinder för att förebygga trycksår. Metod En icke-systematisk litteraturöversikt som baserades på 16 vetenskapliga originalartiklarmed både kvalitativ och kvantitativ metod från databaserna PubMed och CINAHL.Artiklarna kvalitetsgranskades utifrån Sophiahemmet Högskolas bedömningsunderlag förvetenskaplig klassificering och kvalitet. Resultatet sammanställdes och analyserades meden integrerad dataanalys. Resultat I sammanställningen identifierades hur olika faktorer påverkar implementeringen avtrycksårsförebyggande arbete. Dessa faktorer delades in i tre huvudkategorier:organisation, personal och patienter. Möjligheter som en stödjande organisation,regelbundna utbildningsmöjligheter, tillgång till utrustning, positiva attityder, kompetentpersonal och patientmedverkan kan underlätta implementeringen. Otillräckliga resurser,bristande kunskap och utbildning, bristande dokumentation, negativa attityder,patientmotstånd, medicinskt instabil patient samt patientens bristande förståelse förtrycksårsprevention utgör hinder för implementering. Slutsats Möjligheter och hinder för att förebygga trycksår identifieras inom flera områden.För ett framgångsrikt trycksårsförebyggande arbete som leder till en signifikant minskningav uppkomsten av trycksår behövs en stödjande organisation som är beredd att göraförbättringsåtgärder för att åstadkomma bra förutsättningar så att personalen kan jobbaaktivt och effektivt med implementering av trycksårsförebyggande åtgärder. / Background Pressure ulcers that occur during the period of care can be prevented. However, they stillrepresent an ongoing safety and quality problem in healthcare. Various evidence-basedpreventive measures are available to avoid the damage. Despite this, implementation inclinical practice is limited. An understanding of the possibilities and barriers in theimplementation of these efforts from different perspectives is of great importance, so thattargeted strategies can be incorporated into implementation plans. Aim The aim was to identify facilitators and barriers to prevent pressure ulcers. Method A non-systematic literature review based on 16 original scientific articles using bothqualitative and quantitative methods from the databases PubMed and CINAHL. Thequality of the articles was checked based on Sophiahemmet University's assessment basisfor scientific classification and quality. The results were compiled and analyzed in anintegrated data analysis. Results In the compilation, identified how various factors affect the implementation of pressureulcer prevention work. These factors were divided into three main categories: organization,health care professionals and patients. Opportunities such as a supportive organization,regular educational opportunities, access to equipment, positive attitudes, competent staff,and patient involvement can facilitate the implementation. Insufficient resources, lack ofknowledge and training, lack of documentation, negative attitudes, patient resistance,medically unstable patients, and the patient's lack of understanding of the pressure ulcerprevention measures are barriers to implementation. Conclusions Possibilities and barriers to prevent pressure ulcers were identified in several areas. For asuccessful pressure ulcer prevention that leads to a significant reduction in the occurrenceof pressure ulcers, a supporting organization is needed to prepare to make improvementmeasures to create good conditions so that the staff can work actively and efficiently withthe implementation of pressure ulcer prevention measures.

Sistema para apoio à prevenção de úlcera por pressão / A system to support pressure ulcer preventionMarchione, Felipe Gonçalves 31 August 2015 (has links)
A Úlcera por Pressão (UP) é uma lesão na pele e em tecidos subjacentes causada pela prolongada exposição de regiões do corpo à pressão. O surgimento de UPs impacta diretamente na qualidade de vida de pacientes acamados, já que são feridas dolorosas, e levam à um aumento no tempo de internação para que seja feito o seu tratamento. Abordagens que utilizam software para monitorar automaticamente pacientes acamados vem sendo propostas para apoiar a prevenção de UP\'s. Por meio de uma revisão sistemática, pode-se identificar o estado da arte de tais abordagens, que são baseadas principalmente em sensores instalados sobre o colchão para identificar pontos de pressão. Para realização do monitoramento por essas abordagens, há necessidade do contato do equipamento com o corpo do paciente. Por conta disso, questões como conforto e a higienização ou troca do equipamento, quando um novo paciente precisa ser monitorado devem ser levadas em consideração. Neste trabalho, foi desenvolvido um sistema para apoio à prevenção de úlcera por pressão (SAPU) que realiza o monitoramento de movimentações e posição de decúbito de uma maneira alternativa às abordagens existentes. São recuperados dados de posição e imagens de profundidade do sensor de movimentos Kinect, que são utilizados por métodos de estimativa de movimentação e posição de decúbito propostos neste trabalho. Assim, não se faz necessário o contato direto do paciente com o equipamento de monitoramento. Além disso, o sistema provê, aos profissionais da saúde, indicadores de movimentação por regiões do corpo, que é uma informação que não é provida por outras abordagens existentes. Um experimento preliminar foi realizado com três participantes, que foram instruídos a realizar uma série de movimentações e troca de posição para avaliação dos métodos de estimativa da posição de decúbito e movimentação utilizados pelo SAPU. Os resultados, apesar de preliminares, dão indícios da viabilidade de sua aplicação para monitoramento de pacientes acamados. / Pressure ulcer (PU) is a lesion on the skin and underlying tissues caused by prolonged exposure of body regions to pressure. PU directly impacts bedridden patients\' quality of life since they are painful and may lead to a prolonged period of hospital internment in order to be treated. Approaches that use software to automatically monitor bedridden patients have been proposed to support pressure ulcer prevention. Through a systematic review, we identified the state of art of these approaches that are mainly based on sensors installed on a mattress to identify pressure points. Since the patient is in contact with the monitoring equipment, issues like comfort and the equipment hygiene or replacement when a new patient is monitored need to be considered. In this paper, we present a system to support pressure ulcer prevention (SAPU) that automatically monitors the patient\'s movements and decubitus positions in an alternative way. Position data and depth images are obtained from the Kinect motion sensor and used by methods we proposed to estimate movement and decubitus positions without any contact of the monitoring equipment with the patient. The system also provides movements indicators by body regions that is an information not given by other approaches. A preliminary experiment have been carried out with three participants that performed a sequence of movements and assumed different decubitus positions so that we could evaluate the methods to estimate the decubitus positions and movements detection that are used by SAPU. Even though the results are preliminary, they provide evidence that these methods can be applied in order to monitor patient\'s movements and decubitus positions.

Through a systematic review, we identified the state of art of these approaches that are mainly based on sensors installed on a mattress to identify pressure points. Since the patient is in contact with the monitoring equipment, issues like comfort and the equipment hygiene or replacement when a new patient is monitored need to be considered. In this paper, we present a system to support pressure ulcer prevention (SAPU) that automatically monitors the patient\'s movements and decubitus positions in an alternative way. Position data and depth images are obtained from the Kinect motion sensor and used by methods we proposed to estimate movement and decubitus positions without any contact of the monitoring equipment with the patient. The system also provides movements indicators by body regions that is an information not given by other approaches. A preliminary experiment have been carried out with three participants that performed a sequence of movements and assumed different decubitus positions so that we could evaluate the methods to estimate the decubitus positions and movements detection that are used by SAPU. Even though the results are preliminary, they provide evidence that these methods can be applied in order to monitor patient\'s movements and decubitus positions.

Sjuksköterskans pedagogiska och preventiva funktion i diabetesvården för att förhindra fotsår / The pedagogical and preventative function of Primary CareNurses in the care of diabetics in order to prevent footulcerEinarsson, Sara, Lyppert, Linda January 2010 (has links)
I denna systematiska litteraturstudie analyseras och beskrivs sjuksköterskans förebyggande(prevention), undervisande och rådgivande funktion i att stödja (promotion) patienter medsjukdomen diabetes typ 2 och i att förhindra (protection) att komplikationer uppstår. I Sverigefinns cirka 365 000 personer som har en diagnostiserad diabetes typ 2 och ungefär lika mångaberäknas ha sjukdomen oupptäckt och odiagnostiserad. Förekomsten av diabetes ökarlavinartat i hela världen just nu. Ökningen kommer att få stora hälsoekonomiska konsekvenserför olika länders sjukvård och samhällen. Då diabetes är en kronisk livslång sjukdom krävsdet i framtiden ökade kunskaper för att möta den utmaning som den pågående utbredningenav sjukdomen utgör.Syftet med denna studie var att söka kunskap utifrån aktuell forskning mellan åren 2005-2009om sjuksköterskans undervisande och rådgivande funktion angående egenvård i samband meddiabetes typ 2, hur uppkomst av fotsår förhindras samt undervisningens effekter.Datamaterialet (10 inkluderade studier) analyserades och sammanställdes.Studiens resultat visade att undervisning i egenvård inte är patient eller individbaserad, attfotkomplikationer inte förebyggs tillräckligt, att det föreligger starkt samband mellanutbildning och livskvalitet samt att sjuksköterskan behöver öka sin pedagogiska kompetens. / In this systematic literature review study the pedagogical, preventive, instructive and advisoryrole of the nurse is analyzed and described, as regards to the promotion of patients diagnosedwith Diabetes type 2 as well as their protection from further complications. In Sweden thereare about 365 000 diagnosed cases of Diabetes type 2 and approximately the same number ofpeople are estimated to suffer from the condition without being identified or diagnosed. Theprevalence of Diabetes around the world is rapidly increasing. This increase will have anotable impact on the economics of healthcare and on the societies of various countries. SinceDiabetes is a chronic lifelong condition, further knowledge will in future be needed in order toface up to the challenge that the present spread of the condition entails.The purpose of this study was to gather information based on current research published from2005 to 2009, related to the teaching and advisory role of the nurse in terms of self care inconnection with Diabetes type 2, how to prevent the origin of foot ulcer as well as the efficacyof patient instruction.The research data (including 10 research studies) was compiled andanalysed.The results of the study showed that self care instruction is generally not based uponindividual or patient preconditions, that foot complications are not subject to sufficientprevention, that a strong correlation exists between quality of education and patient quality oflife, and that nurses need to improve upon their pedagogical skills.
