Abstract:

Optimal effect of medical treatment requires patients' adherence to those treatments, which plays a even greater role than the medical decision made by physicians. With the epidemiological dynamic evolving, chronic disease becomes the major burden of healthcare, such as AIDS, hypertension, COPD, tuberculosis, asthma, epilepsy, schizophrenia, depression and diabetes, which make the adherence especially medication adherence a sightworthy issue because the risk of poor adherence with the complexity and duration of treatment with both of them are inherent to chronic diseases.

Abstract:

Choices are often difficult to make by patients with Alzheimer Dementia. They often become acutely confused when faced with too many options because they are not able to retain in their working memory enough information about the various individual choices available. In this case study, we describe how an essentially simple benign task (choosing a dress to wear) can rapidly escalate and result in a catastrophic outcome. We examine what went wrong in the patient/caregiver interaction and how that potentially catastrophic situation could have been avoided or defused.

It was proposed that patients would view the illness experience differently from health professionals, thus the patients would identify different learning needs.

One of the most exciting developments within postoperative pain research in recent years has been the introduction of Patient Controlled Analgesia (PCA). PCA is a technique in which patients self-administer small doses of opioids intravenously and it has been shown to be more effective than the conventional intramuscular injection method (IMI). However, PCA requires costly equipment and this necessarily places constraints on its availability. Therefore it is vital to ensure that the PCA facilities which are available are used as efficiently as possible. Essential to this is an understanding of
