Information till närstående : Närståendes uppfattning om information gällande patientens egenvård inför hemkomstBlom, Marlene, Kjaernes, Therese January 2010 (has links)
<p>Shorter hospital stays increases the need for well functioning post hospital aftercare. Persons close to the patient are often involved in the aftercare and need information about self-care. This need is frequently not satisfied. <strong>The aim</strong> of this study was to investigate if the next-of-kin of patients cared for at the thoracic clinic at Uppsala University hospital, have received information about self-care and how they perceive the information they have been given. <strong>METHOD: </strong>To investigate this, questionnaires were sent out by mail. <strong>MAIN RESULT: </strong>Most of the respondent’s<strong> </strong>states that they have not received enough information but that they consider it important to get information. Those who state that they have been given information say that they are pleased with the information received. <strong>CONCLUSION: </strong>A tendency in<strong> </strong>the results shows that the information that is given at the clinic is satisfying, but that not everybody receive it. There is also shown that the next-of-kin’s thinks that it is important to be given information about the patients self-care.</p> / <p>Kortare vårdtider ökar behovet av en välfungerande posthospital eftervård. Närstående är ofta inblandade i patientens egenvård i hemmet och har stort behov av information inför utskrivning. Detta behov är ofta inte tillfredställt. <strong>Syftet </strong>med denna studie var att undersöka om närstående till patienter på thoraxkliniken vid Akademiska sjukhuset i Uppsala, anser sig ha fått information inför utskrivning och hur de uppfattar den. <strong>METOD:</strong> För att undersöka detta skickades studiespecifika enkäter ut per post. <strong>HUVUDRESULTAT: </strong>De flesta svarar att de inte fått tillräckligt med information men att de tycker det är viktigt med information. De som anger att de fått information är generellt nöjda med den information de fått.<strong> SLUTSATS: </strong>Resultaten tyder på att den information som ges på kliniken är bra men att inte alla får ta del av den samt att de närstående anser att det är viktigt att få information om patientens egenvård.<strong></strong></p>

A self-management programme for older adults with age-related macular degeneration (AMD)Young, Ping., 葉萍. January 2012 (has links)
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) causes vision impairment which is not recoverable under existing treatment options. It has been a major leading cause of blindness in the aged population. To ameliorate the self-care ability for AMD patients, educational interventions to mediate negative impacts of the disease on quality of life have become a research interest. Current practice in the proposed Hong Kong setting, Elderly Health Centre A and Elderly Health Centre B, depends on nurses giving general advice which is lack of scientific support and non-specific to AMD. Purpose of this dissertation is to translate the best evidence to practice for improving the care of older adults with AMD in the proposed setting. Evidences showed that self-management education programmes were effective in improving emotional distress and self-efficacy. Electronic searches located 9 relevant RCTs of high level and methodologically strong evidences. Data was extracted into tables of evidence. Data summary and synthesis was presented. Assessment on the implementation potential indicated that the SEP was worth to try in the local setting. Twelve recommendations for the practice guidelines of SEP were presented and a communication process to facilitate the change in a top-down approach was introduced. A pilot study plan in Centre A followed by a main study in Centre A and Centre B was presented. A total of 98 elderly patients with AMD will be recruited as 10 SEP groups. Approximately 1.8 years will be used to finish the main study. Outcomes will be measured at the 6th week follow-up. ‘Emotional distress’ will be measured as primary outcome and ‘self-efficacy’ will be measured as secondary outcome. ‘Client satisfaction’, ‘staff satisfaction’ and the ‘utilization rate of the innovation’ will also be assessed in evaluation. A two-tailed paired (one-sample) t-test will be adopted for analysis, with a 95% confidence interval. The basis for effectiveness for the outcome measurements and basis for adoption of the clinical guidelines were stated. Adoption of the developed guidelines in the local setting will optimistically improve the substantial clinical outcomes for AMD patients, mediating the negative impacts of vision impairment or vision loss on their quality of life. / published_or_final_version / Nursing Studies / Master / Master of Nursing
