Older people, across the spectrum of life, experience socio-demographic changes that easily hinder the capacity of health and social care practitioners to promote person-centred care within this group. This chapter aims to share three case studies demonstrating the promotion of person-centred care for people with dementia in Taiwan, Germany and Australia. The case studies demonstrate interdisciplinary implementation of practice development projects by practitioners in medicine, nursing and occupational therapy in community and nursing home care settings. Claims, concerns and issues are used by facilitators to negotiate a shared interpretation among a wide range of stakeholder groups or to reach a consensus on constructions about workplace experiences. The focus on dementia demonstrated that even when working with a vulnerable population group, practitioners, service providers, non-governmental organisations and policymakers can work towards empowering service users and their family carers to achieve person-centred care experiences.
In der Gesundheitsversorgung kommt es vermehrt zu ethischen Konfliktsituationen. Gründe dafür sind unter anderen der demografische Wandel und die Zunahme an chronisch Erkrankten. Somit werden neben medizinischen und pflegerischen auch ethische Kompetenzen benötigt. Verschiedene Formen ethischer Fallbesprechungen werden genutzt, um in Form eines partizipativen Entscheidungsfindungsprozesses ethisch begründete Handlungsempfehlungen zu treffen. Das Malteser-Konzept, welches auf Grundlage der Nimwegener-Methode entwickelt wurde, enthält eine sechsschrittige Gesprächsstrukturierung für interne prospektive Fallbesprechungen und beinhaltet zudem die vier ethischen Grundsätze der Prinzipienethik. Insgesamt kann die Inanspruchnahme ethischer Fallbesprechungen sowohl die Patienten- als auch die Mitarbeiterzufriedenheit steigern und als Nebeneffekt weitere positive Wirkungen erzielen.
Beratung leistet einen wichtigen Beitrag zur Stärkung und Stabilisierung der häuslichen Pflege. Ein geeignetes Instrument zur Unterstützung einer systematischen Situationsanalyse und zur Erfassung des Beratungsbedarfes kann die Qualität der Beratung verbessern und auf ein einheitliches Niveau heben. Auf Basis einer systematischen Literaturrecherche werden in diesem Beitrag acht Assessmentinstrumente vorgestellt, die für die Beratungsangebote nach SGB XI in Frage kommen. Dabei zeigt sich Entwicklungsbedarf für ein Instrument, welches die Besonderheiten des intrapersonalen Beratungsprozesses berücksichtigt und unabhängig vom gesetzlich definierten Beratungsanlass zum Einsatz kommen kann.
Objective:
To understand the meaning of entrepreneurial nursing care as inducer of healthy practices in vulnerable communities.
Method:
Grounded theory, whose data collection took place between March and December 2019, from interviews with 19 participants from the central region of Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil and comparative data analysis.
Results:
The phenomenon was delimited: Experiencing small/big transformations in the invisibility of everyday life in promoting healthy practices in vulnerable communities. Conducted by the paradigmatic model, the categories were named based on the components: Condition: Making choices and negotiating non-negotiable exchanges; Action/interaction: Motivating oneself to maintain basic human needs; Consequence: Broadening perspectives and transcending personal and collective boundaries.
Conclusion:
Entrepreneurial nursing care as inducer of healthy practices in vulnerable communities is not reduced to a scientific theory or to the linear and decontextualized apprehension of healthy living, but extends to reach small/big transformations that occur in the invisibility of everyday life.
Objective:
to carry out a theoretical reflection on the Nursing Now Campaign and the experience of the unexpected irruptions facing the pandemic period.
Method:
a theoretical-reflective study, supported by the theoretical framework of complexity thinking. It aims at understanding the dialogic between the notions of order, disorder and organization, which translate the transition from simplification to complexity of the pandemic phenomenon and its relation to the theme of Nursing Now and Nursing in the future.
Results:
the universe of phenomena is simultaneously composed of order, disorder and organization. Reasserting the central role of Nursing in the health team, facing the irruptions and uncertainties caused by the current pandemic, implies the ability to dialog with disorder and raise a new and more complex global (re)organization of the being and doing Nursing.
Conclusion:
in addition to answers, theoretical reflection raises new questions and irruptions. The inseparability between the notions of order and disorder in the evolutionary dynamics of the Nursing system is conceived and the promotion of even more complex levels of organization, management and Nursing assistance to achieve universal access to health is advocated.
In der qualitativen Studie soll erstmalig ein realitätsnahes Abbild der Zusammenarbeit mit ausländischen Ärzten/innen aus der Perspektive der Pflege dargestellt werden. Es wurden 11 leitfadengestützte Interviews mit 13 Pflegekräften geführt und mittels der Grounded Theory ausgewertet. Alle Pflegekräfte berichten von alltäglichen Herausforderungen, wobei sprachliche Barrieren und die Einstellung zur Gleichberechtigung von Mann und Frau am häufigsten genannt wurden. Es wurde deutlich, dass die Kliniken vor der Aufgabe stehen, das Personalmanagement zu professionalisieren, um den langfristig bestehenden Konflikten entgegenzuwirken
Hintergrund: Die Gesundheitskompetenz (GK) gilt als bedeutender Prädiktor für die Gesundheit. In der deutschen Bevölkerung ist sie nur unzureichend ausgeprägt. Die vorliegende Untersuchung geht der Frage nach, welchen Beitrag die Gesundheitsprofessionen zur Förderung der GK leisten können.
Ziel: In dieser Arbeit werden das Verständnis der Gesundheitsprofessionen von GK sowie fördernde und hemmende Faktoren bei ihrer Vermittlung untersucht.
Methode: Die Untersuchung wurde als qualitative Studie im Design der Grounded Theory durchgeführt. Es wurden 16 halbstrukturierte, leitfadengestützte Interviews geführt.
Ergebnis: Die Ergebnisse verdeutlichen das Verständnis der Gesundheitsprofessionen von GK als Empowerment zu mehr Gesundheit. Dies soll mit einem Wechsel zur holistischen Perspektive auf die Menschen und der Verortung der Verantwortung für die Stärkung von GK in Politik und Gesellschaft gelingen. Voraussetzung dafür ist die vermehrte Aufmerksamkeit des Themas in Theorie und Praxis.
Schlussfolgerung: Aus den Ergebnissen dieser Untersuchung lassen sich Unterstützungsmaßnahmen für die Gesundheitsprofessionen bei ihrer Aufgabe, GK zu vermitteln, ableiten. Für ihre Mitarbeit muss intensiv geworben werden, zudem sind insbesondere politische Maßnahmen bedeutend, die auf ein höheres gesellschaftliches Engagement hinwirken.
Objective: To understand the meaning of the Learning Incubator as a teaching and learning technology in the nursing area.
Method: Qualitative research, supported by grounded theory. Data was collected from March to November 2019, through interviews with guiding questions and hypotheses directed at two different groups. The analysis was done by comparative data analysis and included open, axial and integrated coding, as proposed by the method. The theoretical sample included 23 participants, which were nurses, technicians, and nursing students.
Results: The delimitation of the categories converged in the phenomenon (Re)signifying knowledge and practices in the Learning Incubator. Guided by the paradigmatic model, the categories were named according to the three following components: Condition: Recognizing that the being and the professional practice are inextricable; Action/interaction: Revisiting professional practices that are repetitive and mechanic; Consequence: Referring to the reflections and knowledge constructed in the Learning Incubator.
Conclusion: The Learning Incubator, as seen by the study participants, is not limited to the Incubator meetings or the themes addressed in it. Beyond a welcoming physical space, the Incubator expands itself and becomes a tool that promotes self-reflection and self-assessment of professional behaviors and attitudes.
Chronic illness can have a profound impact on couples’ relationships. In dealing with relational changes, new constructions and forms of relationships may arise. In the context of a larger grounded theory study on relational processes and practices in couples faced with chronic illness, this article focuses on concurrent relationships as an alternative form of relationship construction which embodies an additional relationship existing parallel to that of the couple confronted with chronic illness. Based on qualitative interviews with a subsample of five persons within the larger study, conditions for the development and characteristics of concurrent relationships are presented. From an individual and shared life questioned by chronic illness, concurrent relationships are formed in the attempt to be able to live on together in a new partner relationship and a continued care relationship. This can lead to new constructions of relationships, family life, and social relations in everyday life.
Seit Jahren schon hat Sarah J. das Gefühl, immer müder und weniger belastbar zu werden. Selbst im Garten schafft sie kaum noch was. Liegt es wirklich nur am Verlust ihres Mannes? Zunehmende Zahn- und Kieferschmerzen und Schmerzen im Thorax führen sie zur Physiotherapie. Dort rückt eine andere Vermutung in den Fokus.
BACKGROUND: The Craniofacial Pain and Disability Inventory (CF-PDI) is a cross-culturally adapted instrument designed from a biopsychosocial perspective to measure pain, disability, and function in orofacial head and neck pain with shown psychometric properties; however, the German cross-cultural adaption is lacking.
OBJECTIVES: To carry out a transcultural translation of CF-PDI into German and assess its psychometric properties in patients with painful temporomandibular disorders (TMD) with respect to construct and clinical validity, internal consistency and reproducibility.
STUDY DESIGN: Multicenter, prospective, cross-sectional design.
SETTING: Patients (n = 398) were recruited from dental and physical therapy clinics in middle and south Germany.
METHODS: Structural validity was assessed using exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). We investigated know-group validity by means of the scale’s potential to discriminate between affected and unaffected subjects. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to estimate convergent validity. We tested test-retest reliability by the intraclass correlation coefficient and the Internal consistency by Cronbach’s alpha, or each dimension separately, and the total score. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to estimate convergent validity.
RESULTS: Two hundred forty-six heterogeneous chronic craniofacial pain patients and 152 patients without complaints were recruited from the middle and south of Germany. The German version CF-PDI-G presents 21 items, 4 factors, and adequate psychometric properties. The test-retest reliability and internal consistency of the CF-PDI-G were both excellent for the entire instrument and also for all sub-scales (intraclass correlation coefficient [ICC] > 0.90) except for the comorbidities and interference with work which was acceptable (ICC = 0.69). Standard error of the measurement (SEM) and minimal detectable change values are sufficiently low. Assessment of clinical validity shows good potential of discrimination and classification into categories “no,” “mild,” “moderate,” and “severe.” The multiple linear regression model showed a strong association between neck disability index, Visual Analog Scale, and anamnestic questionnaire (supporting the scale’s convergent validity).
LIMITATIONS: Our sample has a higher prevalence of women and the sample was not recruited consecutively, which may lead to a biased estimation of psychometric properties.
CONCLUSIONS: The CF-PDI-G represents valid and reliable instrument to assess pain and disability in patients with orofacial pain and headache suitable for research and clinical practice.
The management of patients experiencing chronic orofacial pain is a great challenge, due to the complexity of chronic pain itself, combined with an increased peripheral sensitization in the craniofacial itself. Therefore, patients with orofacial pain may present a clear distortion of the somatorepresentation after some time. In this review, the authors develop a neurophysiological explanation of orofacial distortion, as well as propose assessment and treatment options, based on scarcely available scientific evidence and their own clinical experience. The assessments of facial somatosensory, cognitive-affective and motor dysfunctions are crucial to establish the most accurate treatment; the assessment tools are described in the article. Two-point discrimination, laterality recognition and emotion recognition are altered in patients with orofacial pain. Other sensorimotor assessment tools, such as motor acuity and auditory acuity, are also explained. Finally, the authors review their treatment proposals, based on the integration of brain training techniques and biobehavioral interventions. Somatosensory reintegration (tactile acuity training), facial emotion recognition, movement representation techniques, orofacial motor training and therapeutic patient education are explained in detail, and this may challenge new directions in rehabilitation and research.
Introduction
Observations show that foam rolling improves joint movements. Likewise, it can be stated that a vibration stimulation of the tissue leads to improved joint mobility.
Method
This study investigates whether the combination of foam rolling and vibrations (31 Hz) can influence the sliding of the thoracolumbar fascia more effectively than normal foam rolling. 45 subjects participated in the study and were divided into a foam roll with additional vibration group (FRV), a foam roll group (FR) and a control group (CG). The intervention groups rolled out the gluteal muscles, the lateral trunk and the upper and lower back. Mobility measures were taken pre and post the respective intervention. Subsequent cross correlation software analysis quantified the sliding of the fascia and calculated its shear strain mobility (SSM).
Results
The sliding of the thoracolumbar fascia improved significantly within the FRV by 2.83 mm (SD ± 1.08/p < .001), in the FR by 0.96 mm (SD ± 0.43/p < .001) and in the CG decreased the sliding by 0.1401 mm (SD ± 0.28/p = .076). The fascia/fascia SSM increased in the FRV by 22.61% (SD ± 15.64/p < .001), in the FR by 11.41% (SD ± 20.38/p = .056) and in the CG decreased the SSM by 0.9473% (SD ± 11.35/p < .751). The lumbar movement increased in both intervention groups, but showed no significant result.
Conclusion
The use of a foam roll with additional vibration and standard intervention have increased thoracolumbar fascia sliding and lumbar movements. The improved shear strain mobility can be attributed to the multi-activity of mechanoreceptors, such as Pacini- and Ruffini-Bodies.
Ist die Energiewende steckengeblieben, ist sie womöglich gescheitert? Haben Regulierung und Politik den Wandel zum nachhaltigen Umgang mit Energie ausgebremst? Verschläft die Wirtschaft die Wende? Nein, ganz und gar nicht. Während vielen die Energiewende nicht schnell genug vorankommt, befinden wir uns mitten im Wandel unseres Energiesystems, auf der Schwelle in eine neue Energiegesellschaft. Und wir sind schon viel weiter, als manche denken.
Dieses Buch zeigt auf, dass die Energiewende nur Teil eines größeren Wandlungsprozesses ist. Ein Wandel im Umgang mit Energie, ihrer Gewinnung und ihres Wertes. Sie ist Teil der laufenden vierten industriellen Revolution und viel mehr als nur der Umstieg auf regenerative Energien. Dieser Wandel vollzieht sich quer durch alle Bereiche der Wirtschaft und der Gesellschaft, baut die Energiewirtschaft um, verändert die Mobilität und initiiert dezentrale Lösungen in Unternehmen und in unseren Städten und Gemeinden.
Dieser Wandel wird wissenschaftlich fundiert, durch Recherchen und Gespräche mit Experten aus den verschiedensten Blickwinkeln analysiert und bewertet. Teil für Teil entsteht so ein Bild der neuen Energiewelt. Der Weg der fossilen Energien geht zu Ende, und ein neues, ein anderes Energiesystem entsteht.
Das Buch beschreibt, welches die Stellschrauben des Wandels sind, welche Rolle Wasserstoff spielen kann, welche gesellschaftlichen Veränderungen anstehen und wie neue internationale Energiepartnerschaften entstehen können. Es richtet sich an alle, die sich am Umbau des Energiesystems beteiligen wollen. Es hilft Unternehmen und Organisationen den Wandel zu verstehen und ihre Rolle darin zu entwickeln und kann auch der Politik Hinweise zur Umsetzung der Energiewende geben, Hinweise zur Gestaltung des Wandels in eine neue Energiegesellschaft.
Visitors to events attach great importance to the range of artists and their performances and the quality of their stay and services. To create a staging and, consequently, an emotionalization of the visitor, many action areas simultaneously take effect at an event. In this context, the customer satisfaction of visitors plays a major role for event organizers, which aims to generate a competitive advantage over other providers and be attractive for artists simultaneously. This article aims to analyse the perceived functional quality of service (QoS) during various events in a multi-purpose event venue. The analysis was based on 563 primary data samples. On the off chance, selected visitors were during the events recruited and interviewed using a standardized questionnaire. The data were collected during the break of five events. These events took place in the period from mid-November to mid-December 2019. This was supplemented by an online survey of enthusiastic fan club visitors who regularly watch handball matches within the event venue. The online survey was conducted in parallel with the surveys during November 2019. Overall, the results showed a high level of satisfaction among visitors regarding the QoS. In addition to services, exploratory factor analysis identified cleanliness as a satisfaction factor that significantly accounted for overall service satisfaction. Differences in the perception of both factors could be detected between the fan club visitors on the one hand and all other visitors of various events (comedy, music, sports) on the other. Based upon the results of this analysis, the event managers of this venue are enabled to employ target group-oriented improvements of individual services to consolidate and increase customer satisfaction.
