Lung Capacity01:47

Lung Capacity

56.3K
The air in the lungs is measured in volumes and capacities. Lung volume measures reflect the amount of air taken in, released, or left over after a lung function, like a single inhalation. Lung capacity measures are sums of two or more lung volume measures.

Drug Dosing: Geriatric Patients

269
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...

Respiratory Capacities01:24

Respiratory Capacities

1.4K
Respiratory capacities are crucial indicators of lung function, representing the maximum amount of air an individual's respiratory system can handle during various breathing phases.
One key metric is the Inspiratory Capacity (IC), which represents the maximum amount of air that can be inhaled with full effort. IC is calculated by summing the tidal volume and inspiratory reserve volume, typically ranging from 2.4 to 3.6 liters.
The Functional Residual Capacity (FRC) represents the air in the...

Movement Joints in Buildings01:27

Movement Joints in Buildings

345
Movement joints in buildings are essential design elements that accommodate inevitable motions caused by various factors such as temperature changes, moisture content variations, and structural deflections. These motions, if not considered in design and construction, can lead to unsightly or dangerous damage. Movement joints are incorporated in different forms to manage these stresses and allow materials to move without causing distress.
The simplest type of movement joints, working joints, are...

Pharmacodynamics in Geriatric Patients: Effects of Age01:27

Pharmacodynamics in Geriatric Patients: Effects of Age

234
Age-related pharmacokinetic changes are extensively documented, but understanding age-related pharmacodynamic alterations is relatively limited. This knowledge gap can be partly attributed to the complexity of developing appropriate measures of drug responses compared to bioanalytical methods for determining drug concentrations.Most information regarding age-related differences in human pharmacodynamics originates from cross-sectional studies. However, these studies assume that observed mean...

Area of Science:

  • Gerontology
  • Medical Education
  • Healthcare Quality Improvement

Background:

  • Many healthcare providers lack adequate preparation for the complex needs of older adults.
  • There is a need to enhance geriatric care knowledge and skills among practicing professionals.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the Geriatric Certificate Program (GCP).
  • To evaluate the GCP's impact on healthcare providers' knowledge, skills, clinical practice, confidence, comfort, and competence in geriatric care.

Main Methods:

  • The Geriatric Certificate Program (GCP) was developed through a collaborative partnership, integrating existing courses and creating new ones.
  • An online evaluation survey was administered to all program graduates (N=146) upon completion.

Main Results:

  • 100% of graduates completed the evaluation survey.
  • A significant majority reported increased confidence (88%), comfort (83%), and competence (89%) in providing geriatric care post-program.

Conclusions:

  • The GCP effectively enhances healthcare providers' capacity to deliver optimal care for older adults.
  • The program offers valuable lessons for future development and implementation in geriatric education.
