Continuing Care01:25

Continuing Care

2.1K
Continuing care describes the variety of health, personal, and social services provided over a prolonged period. The need for continuing care is increasing because people are living longer. Many people do not have families or others to care for them. Continuing care is mainly for patients who are disabled, functionally dependent, or suffering from a terminal disease. It is available within institutional settings or in homes. Examples include nursing centers or facilities, assisted living,...

Parkinson's Disease: Treatment

1.4K
Neurodegenerative disorders, such as Parkinson's Disease (PD), involve the gradual and irreversible destruction of neurons in particular brain areas. These disorders exhibit standard features like proteinopathies, selective vulnerability of some neurons, and an interaction of intrinsic properties, genetics, and environmental influences in neural injury.
Parkinson's Disease is primarily a result of the loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta. The cornerstone of...

Alzheimer's Disease: Treatment

1.2K
Alzheimer's Disease (AD), a neurodegenerative disorder, is pathologically identified by amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles composed of tau protein. AD pharmacotherapy aims to manage cognitive symptoms, delay disease progression, and treat behavioral symptoms. The treatment is primarily symptomatic and palliative, with no definitive disease-modifying therapy available. Cholinesterase inhibitors, including donepezil (Aricept), rivastigmine (Exelon), and galantamine (Razadyne), are...

Peripheral Artery Disease III: Interprofessional Care

586
Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) is characterized by narrowed arteries that diminish blood flow to the extremities. Effective management of PAD requires an interprofessional approach involving various healthcare professionals. The critical aspects of interprofessional care for PAD patients focus on risk factor modification, drug therapy, exercise therapy, nutrition therapy, critical limb ischemia care, and interventional radiology and surgical procedures.The primary treatment goal for PAD...

    Summary

    Palliative care in neurology requires specialized approaches beyond general methods. This care extends beyond end-of-life, addressing progressive neurological conditions throughout their course.

    Area of Science:

    • Neurology
    • Palliative Care
    • Clinical Medicine

    Context:

    • Traditional palliative care models are often inadequate for neurological diseases.
    • Neurological conditions present unique challenges, including long-term disability and cognitive/psychic disorders.
    • Existing palliative care criteria for cancer and organ failure do not fully apply to neurology.

    Purpose:

    • To highlight the distinct needs of palliative care in neurology.
    • To advocate for specialized expertise and approaches in neurological palliative assistance.
    • To underscore the importance of adapting palliative care for progressive, life-limiting neurological conditions.

    Summary:

    • Palliative care in neurology necessitates a tailored approach due to the chronic and progressive nature of nervous system diseases.

    Related Experiment Videos

  • Specific challenges include cognitive impairment, psychiatric symptoms, and prolonged disability, requiring expertise beyond general palliative care.
  • Conditions like dementia, stroke, and multiple sclerosis benefit from this specialized, extended model of care.

    • Impact:

    • Encourages research and training in neurological palliative care.
    • Promotes the development of specific expertise for managing advanced neurological diseases.
    • Aims to improve the quality of life for patients with progressive neurological conditions.
