Egenvård hos äldre personer / Self-care among elderly persons

Westerfjärd, Ulrika January 2015 (has links)
SAMMANFATTNING Antalet multisjuka äldre ökar på vårdenheterna. Hjälpbehovet är ofta stort då många inkommer undernärda, uttorkade, har konfusion eller inte klarar utföra dagliga aktiviteter självständigt. De multisjuka patienterna har ofta fler åkommor med en eller fler organsvikter och kan kräva akuta insatser. Enligt socialstyrelsen är inte egenvården väldokumenterad i journalsystemen trots det ökade behovet. Antalet äldre multisjuka ökar samtidigt som det allt vanligare förekommer hospitalisering och komplikationer i vårdandet. Studien syftade till att beskriva hur sjuksköterskor uppmuntrade till egenvården för äldre personer. Data inhämtades från strukturerade intervjuer som analyserades utifrån kvalitativ innehållsanalys. I resultatet presenterades fem kategorier och åtta subkategorier som framkom i analysen av intervjuerna. Dessa presenterades enligt följande: klinisk blick, sjuksköterskornas inhämtning av information, hinder för god egenvård, tidsbrist, metoder som ökar individens strategier för god egenvård, organisatoriska ramar, övertro på sig själv och sin förmåga, för liten tro på sig själv och sin förmåga, att möta patientens hinder, integritet, autonomi, förändring i egenvårdsförmåga, teamet som hjälpmedel och resurs. I resultatet framkom det att vård och omvårdnad bör ses som ett komplement till egenvården. Sjuksköterskan har en stor uppgift att observera och undersöka patientens förmåga. Det framkom även att målen behövde vara gemensamma för patient, sjuksköterska, det geriatriska teamet samt verksamheten. Sjukvården behöver anpassa arbetssätt och verksamhetsmål så att de gynnar patientens egenvård. Sjuksköterskorna behöver se betydelsen av individens motivation och förmågor samt använda det geriatriska teamet och de gemensamma målen som resurs.

Social support as a predictor of self-care agency in the post myocardial infarction patient

Shaw, Cheryl A. January 1992 (has links)
This study examined the relationship between social support and self-care agency in post myocardial infarction (MI) patients. Hypothesis I stated that total social support and it's three subscales are positively related to total self-care agency and it's six subscales. Hypothesis II stated that the three subscales of social support will predict total selfcare agency in post MI patients. A convenience sample of 28 post myocardial infarction patients from a large midwestern metropolitan hospital participated in the study. The Norbeck Social Support Questionnaire (NSSQ) was used to measure the social support variable. The Denyes Self-Care Agency Instrument (DSCAI) was utilized to measure the self-care agency variable. The study supported a positive and significant relationship between social support and self-care agency. The study further supported significant relationships between the subscales of social support and four of the subscales of self-care agency. Affect (a subscale of social support), contributed to 27% of the variance in selfcare agency. The results demonstrated congruent findings with previous studies, reflecting a positive and significant relationship between social support and self-care agency. The study findings have implications for improving nursing practice for myocardial infarction patients and for further nursing research among this population. / School of Nursing

The relationship between self-efficacy of diabetes management and health-promoting behaviors

Davis, Jo Ann January 1997 (has links)
Diabetes Mellitus is a chronic disorder that requires daily adherence to complex regimens for glucose control. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between the capability for self-management of diabetes and the practices of health-promoting behaviors. Instruments used were the Health Promotion Lifestyle Profile to measure health-promoting behaviors, the Insulin Management Diabetes Self-Efficacy Scale to measure self-efficacy in diabetes management, and a demographic questionnaire.Fifty participants from the outpatients of a midwestern veterans hospital responded to the questionnaires. Results showed a moderately positive significant correlation between self-efficacy in diabetes management and health-promoting behaviors (r=.52, p<001).The findings of this study point the importance of higher levels of self-efficacy and participation in health-promoting behaviors for more effective management of diabetes and improved health and well-being. / School of Nursing
