Abstract:
With an aging population there is a growing need to assist people with disabilities. Particularly crucial is assisting people who cannot stand between positions necessary for everyday living, such as from a wheelchair to the toilet. It is unsafe to transfer people with direct manual techniques, thus a patient handling device is required. To reduce the burden on the healthcare system it is beneficial for disabled people to be cared for in-home. Many in-home caregivers may be physically impaired, thus patient handling devices for this use must require as little effort as possible. This thesis

Abstract:
Assisting less able people to move in a healthcare setting is a very common occurrence but carries risks to staff and patients. The scientific study of patient handling activities and interventions to help reduce musculoskeletal disorders in the workplace is a relatively new but growing area. Recent literature reviews have identified two key factors, the lack of high quality studies and the lack of strong links between patient handling interventions and reduced musculoskeletal injury. This study has systematically reviewed the available literature and investigated the potential outcome measure

Abstract:
Pressure ulcers and related skin integrity threats are a significant problem in current transfer/transport systems used for spinal cord injury patients. To understand this problem twenty-three different slings with varying type, material, and features were analyzed in hopes to identify at-risk areas for skin integrity threats such as pressure ulcers. Population samples included non-disabled (otherwise referred to as "healthy") volunteers as well as SCI patients from the James A. Haley Veterans Hospital. High resolution pressure interface mapping was utilized to directly measure the interface p

Abstract:
Remote area staff performing manual patient handling tasks in the absence of patient lifting hoists available in most health care settings are at an elevated risk of musculoskeletal injuries. The objective of this project was to identify the patient handling methods that have the lowest risk of injury. The patient handling task of lifting a patient from floor to a chair or wheelchair is a common task performed in a remote health care setting. The task was performed utilising three methods, these being: (1) heads/tails lift, (2) use of two Blue MEDesign?? slings and (3) use of a drawsheet.

Background: Healthcare workers are ranked among one of the top occupations for musculoskeletal disorder (MSD) injuries that affect the muscles, the bones, the nervous system and due to repetitive motion tasks (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 2017). Numerous high-risk patient handling tasks such as lifting, transferring, ambulating and repositioning of patients cause injuries that can be prevented when evidence-based solutions are used for safe patient handling and mobility (SPHM) tasks.

In a 1994 survey, on incidence rates of musculoskeletal injuries among private industries within the U.S, nurses ranked first nationally. Patient handling tasks are considered to be a precipitating factor in the development of many musculoskeletal injuries. For many decades personnel training has been an intervention widely used for the nursing back problem. Inconsistency regarding the effectiveness of many personnel training programs, lack of controlled research among existing studies, and a primary focus only on long term reduction of injury rates makes the interpretati

Abstract:
Work-related musculoskeletal disorders (WMSDs) are prevalent among health care workers worldwide and underreporting among nurses may mask the true impact of these injuries. Nursing staff are consistently among the top 10 occupations at risk for experiencing WMSDs and patient-handling tasks are the precipitating event in the majority of back injuries experienced among nursing staff. Existing research has focused on patient-handling issues within long-term care facilities, and identifying physically demanding patient-handling tasks.

Abstract:
Each year, thousands of nurses and other health care workers are injured from manually lifting patients. A few decades ago managers were mostly focusing on minimizing direct manufacturing costs but because of the competitive markets nowadays managers should also focus on indirect costs. In this situation the importance of supply chain networks and facility location problems becomes more visible. The need of sophisticated and applicable facility location models is vital and that’s because of indirect manufacturing costs (such as transportation, inventory, procurement & etc.) are considered

Abstract:
Prehospital emergency care is facing a paradigm shift. Spinal motion restriction (SMR) is a way to treat trauma patients with symptoms of spinal injury. It was earlier entitled as ‘routine SMR’, and included spine board and cervical collar. During the 2000s, it has been noted that there is a lack of scientific evidence that proves the benefits with ‘routine SMR’. This led an expert group to the development of the national guidelines, that were published in 2019. The national guidelines can be described as ‘selective SMR’, where the cervical collar and spine board is excluded. It means that the

Abstract:
Patienter med suicidala tankar och handlingar är en skör patientgrupp som är sårbara på grund av sitt sjukdomstillstånd. Omvårdnaden av dessa patienter är en stor utmaning för ambulanssjuksköterskan som många gånger är patientens första kontakt med vården i det akuta skedet. Vårdandet kräver ett stort personligt engagemang och kan spela stor roll för att förhindra suicid och påverka patientens framtida liv och välbefinnande. Denna studies syfte var att belysa ambulanssjuksköterskors upplevelser av att vårda patienter med suicidala tankar och handlingar. Kvalitativa djupintervjuer av åtta ambu

Abstract:
Bakgrund: Vårdrelationen tycks ha stor betydelse för patientens välbefinnande och många faktorer kan påverka utvecklingen av relationen i en positiv riktning. Relationen ses främst som ett medel för att uppnå omvårdnadsmålen, men kan även utgöra ett mål i sig. Tidigare forskning fokuserar på när och hur vårdrelationen innebär ett vårdande för patienten. Studier som har ett helhetsperspektiv och en generell utgångspunkt i patienters preferenser avseende hur sjuksköterskan kan utveckla en god vårdrelation är få. För att kunna utveckla goda vård- relationer till sina patienter behöver sjuksköters

Syftet med studien var att jämföra skattad hanteringsförmåga och hälsorelateradlivskvalitet hos närstående till personer med kronisk hjärtsvikt och stroke. Ett annat syfte var också att studera om samband fanns mellan hanteringsförmågaoch hälsorelaterad livskvalitet.  Metod: En komparativ och korrelativdesign med kvantitativ ansats användes. För att mäta hanteringsförmåga ochhälsorelaterad livskvalitet användes Jalowiec Coping Scale (JCS) och Shortform- 36 (SF- 36).

Abstract:
Självdestruktiva handlingar innebär att medvetet tillfoga sig skada. Hos personer som avsiktligt självskadar sig är suicidtankar vanligt förekommande men syftet kan vara ångestlindring och uttryck för psykiskt illabefinnande. Mellan 2005-2014 vårdades 77371 personer inom slutenvård på grund av avsiktlig självdestruktiv handling och risken för suicid är höjd efter en självdestruktiv handling. Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka intensivvårdssjuksköterskans upplevelse av att vårda patienter som avsiktligt överdoserat läkemedel i självdestruktivt syfte.

RESUMO - A morbilidade associada às lesões músculo-esqueléticas da coluna lombar é estimada em 0,8 milhões de DALYS em todo o mundo, constituindo-se a maior causa de absentismo ao trabalho, o que induz uma enorme perda económica.

Thesis (M. Tech.) -- Central University of Technology, Free State, 2010<br>South Africa currently faces one of the highest HIV prevalence rates in the world. As this prevalence rises, the strain placed on its hospitals is likely to increase due to the shortage of beds. The devastating effects of HIV/AIDS initiated the establishment of a hospice which is a non-governmental organisation whose goal is the provision of care for terminally ill patients, either in their homes, in hospitals or in a hospice’s own in-patients wards. Part of the hospice’s mission is to offer palliative care without cha
