Kto obroni najsłabszych, czyli bezradność staruszków wobez przemocy

2016

Przemoc jest zjawiskiem powszechnie występującym. Doświadcza jej niemal każdy człowiek bez względu na wiek, płeć, pozycję społeczną czy posiadany status materialny. Jest ona obecna we wszystkich zbiorowościach każdego kraju świata. Narody wysoko uprzemysłowione podejmują wiele czynności, aby zmniejszyć skalę przemocy i ograniczyć skutki jej występowania. W znacznie mniejszym stopniu ma to miejsce w krajach ubogich, w których nie funkcjonują prawidłowo struktury społeczne i polityczne. Jednak także w krajach demokratycznych, gdzie powszechnie deklaruje się przestrzeganie praw człowieka, występują problemy ze stworzeniem wszystkim obywatelom takich samych warunków równego i godnego życia.

Diskriminierung von Senioren – Fakten über und Wege für das würdige altern

2018

Obecne stulecie przedstawiane jest często jako wiek starzenia się. Nieproporcjonalne zwiększanie się grupy ludzi starych, do prawie jednej czwartej społeczeństwa niesie ze sobą nie tylko dumę z osiągnięć medycyny przedłużającej życie, lecz także negatywne trendy społeczne. Postępujące procesy, które zostały już określone jako „desolidaryzacja międzygeneracyjna”, znajdują swój wyraz także w bardzo negatywnych zjawiskach, wśród których na znaczenia nabiera dyskryminacja osób starszych. Bazujące na stereotypach i uprzedzeniach negatywne nastawienie do najstarszej części społeczeństwa budzi niepokój i domaga się poszukiwania dróg wyjścia. W niniejszym opracowaniu na podstawie analizy polskojęzy…

An Immersive Motor Protocol for Frailty Rehabilitation

2019

Frailty is a pre-clinical condition that worsens physical health and quality of life. One of the most frequent symptoms of frailty is an increased risk of falling. In order to reduce this risk, we propose an innovative virtual reality motor rehabilitation program based on an immersive tool. All exercises will take place in the CAVE, a four-screen room with a stationary bike. The protocol will include two types of exercises for the improvement of balance: “Positive Bike” and “Avoid the Rocks.” We will choose evaluation scales related to the functional aspects and subjective perception of balance. Our aim is to prove that our innovative motor rehabilitation protocol is as effective as or more…

A latent profile analysis of trait emotional intelligence to identify beneficial and risk profiles in well-being and job performance: a study among J…

2016

Trait emotional intelligence (EI) is a noteworthy psychological resource in nursing. However, its effects on well-being and job performance are inconsistent. Thus, we explored the latent beneficial and risk profiles of trait EI among 461 Japanese eldercare nurses. Latent profile analysis revealed six latent profiles. In addition, multivariate analysis of covariance (MANCOVA) showed that the profile with the highest overall scores on the trait EI dimensions was associated with the most beneficial outcomes (better well-being, higher job performance). In contrast, the profiles with lower overall scores on the trait EI dimensions showed negative outcomes. Moreover, a disproportional profile, ch…

Risk stratification at primary care centres in Valencia (Spain) to activate integrated care pathways for elderly patients with chronic conditions

2017

Introduction: The activation of integrated care pathways is not always easy and is time-consuming, so the standardized use of stratification tools (ST) can support health care professionals in decision-making processes. Several ST –developed and validated in the United States– have been implemented in the Valencia Region (Spain) at primary care (PC) centres to identify elders with multimorbidity at risk of suffering future hospital admissions (FHA). In spite of the usefulness of these instruments, it would be recommended to apply STs which have been specifically designed on the basis of the Spanish healthcare system and the characteristics of its population. Thus, the objective of this stud…

Safety and potential interaction of immunosuppressive drugs for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease in elderly patients

2021

Inflammatory bowel diseases, including Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, are chronic diseases associated with increased morbidity and reduced quality of life. Age may represent a risk factor for adverse events, due to the multimorbidity and polypharmacy, common in elderly patients. Elderly are often not included in clinical trials evaluating efficacy and safety of study drugs for the treatment of inflammatory bowel diseases. Several drugs, such as aminosalicylates, systemic corticosteroids, immunosuppressant drugs, biological drugs and Janus Kinase inhibitors, are available for the management of inflammatory bowel diseases. With the increasing spectrum of therapeutic options, it is th…
