Trends in nursing are multifactorial and associated with changes in society, within the nursing profession, and in other professions. Notably, telehealth and remote nursing contribute to successful healthcare delivery for numerous patients and help reduce stress for nurses due to nursing shortages. Nurses can reach patients, monitor their conditions, and interact with them using computers, audio, visual accessories, and telephones—for example, remote patient monitoring systems. Likewise,...

Drug Dosing: Geriatric Patients

358
Elderly individuals encompass a diverse population with varying degrees of age-related physiological changes. Defining the elderly presents challenges, as the geriatric population is often arbitrarily categorized as individuals older than 65. However, many individuals in this group lead active and healthy lives, with an increasing number surpassing 85 years and falling into the older elderly category. Physiological changes associated with aging impact performance capacity and homeostatic...

Cognitive Development During Adulthood

1.2K
Cognitive development continues throughout adulthood, undergoing significant shifts across early, middle, and late stages. Individual transition occurs from adolescent idealism to pragmatic and adaptable thinking in early adulthood. During this period, individuals learn to integrate personal beliefs with the recognition that other perspectives are equally valid. Exposure to the complexities of modern society, diverse experiences, and higher education contribute to this adaptive thought process,...

Pharmacokinetics in Geriatric Patients: Effect of Age on Drug Excretion

321
In geriatric patients, renal physiology undergoes significant changes, including diminished renal blood flow and a lower glomerular filtration rate (GFR), leading to alterations in medication clearance. Drugs such as aminoglycoside antibiotics, lithium, and digoxin, which rely on glomerular filtration for removal from the body, particularly impact pharmacokinetics. These drugs tend to have slower clearance rates in older adults, necessitating careful dosage considerations.Evaluation of renal...

Area of Science:

  • Gerontology
  • Healthcare Technology
  • Sociology of Care

Background:

  • Explores the inherent tension between care-based and technology-based approaches in the care sector.
  • Investigates how technology integration impacts the relational aspects of care for older adults.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To interpret core values associated with providing good care.
  • To examine the role of technology in relation to these care values.

Main Methods:

  • Qualitative study involving semi-structured interviews with 12 caregivers in an aged care facility.
  • Data analyzed using latent content analysis and normative analysis.

Main Results:

  • Identified four key values: presence, appreciation, competence, and trust.
  • Caregivers felt electronic devices disrupted person-centered care and desired environments supporting their professional skills and autonomy.
  • Positive feedback from next-of-kin and employer trust were crucial for caregivers' sense of professional value.

Conclusions:

  • Caregivers' focus on disturbance-free interactions, professional validation, and a trusting environment forms the basis of quality care.
  • Technological rationality can conflict with care-based rationality, potentially compromising the primary mission of quality care.
  • A societal shift in perspective is needed to ensure technology integration genuinely supports, rather than undermines, the relational foundation of care.
