Peripheral Artery Disease III: Interprofessional Care

398
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...

Chronic Kidney Disease III: Interprofessional Care

503
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) requires collaborative and comprehensive management. CKD progresses through stages and can lead to end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) if untreated. Interprofessional collaboration and patient education are crucial, enabling patients to manage their health and improve their quality of life.Diagnostic approach for chronic kidney diseaseThe diagnosis of CKD primarily focuses on the glomerular filtration rate (GFR), which assesses kidney function by measuring how well...

Acute Kidney Injury V: Interprofessional Care

378
Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) requires a collaborative healthcare approach to restore renal function and prevent complications. Essential management strategies involve monitoring fluid and electrolyte balance, adjusting medications, initiating dialysis when necessary, and providing nutritional support.Fluid and Electrolyte ManagementFluid Monitoring: Regularly monitoring body weight, central venous pressure, and urine output helps detect fluid imbalances early. Patient intake and output are...

Drug Dosing: Geriatric Patients

308
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...

Area of Science:

  • Gerontology
  • Social Work Education
  • Healthcare Management

Background:

  • Geriatric healthcare necessitates interdisciplinary teams for comprehensive elder care.
  • Current geriatric social work education lacks focus on functional interdisciplinary team development.
  • Recognized need for effective team collaboration in elder care settings.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the process of developing functional interdisciplinary health care teams.
  • To identify challenges and steps for creating viable teams in geriatric care.
  • To examine the role of academic interdisciplinary teams as a model.

Main Methods:

  • Case study of an academic interdisciplinary team.
  • Analysis of team development stages: goal development, group affiliation, team awareness, goal evaluation.
  • Review of issues such as disparate terminologies and administrative differentials.

Main Results:

  • Interdisciplinary teams face challenges like differing terminologies and administrative hurdles.
  • Academic teams risk becoming ineffective without structured development.
  • Successful team development requires navigating distinct stages.

Conclusions:

  • Geriatric social work education must integrate interdisciplinary team training.
  • Addressing team dynamics and challenges is key to effective geriatric care.
  • Interdisciplinary teams significantly impact faculty, students, and academic environments.
