Continuing Care01:25

Continuing Care

1.6K
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,...

Pharmacokinetics in Pediatric Patients: Drug Excretion

In pediatric medicine, understanding the renal function and drug elimination nuances is crucial for administering safe and effective treatments. Newborns, in particular, display markedly slower renal functions than adults, profoundly affecting how drugs are cleared from their bodies. This slower drug clearance requires clinicians to extend the dosing intervals for many medications to prevent drug accumulation and toxicity while ensuring therapeutic efficacy.One key area where these adjustments...

Nursing Ethical Principles II

1.4K
Ethical principles are essential in guiding nurses to fulfill their responsibilities, focusing on the quality of nursing care and decision-making. These principles, including autonomy, beneficence, non-maleficence, justice, and fidelity, shape the ethical framework within healthcare settings.
Consider the following scenario, which illustrates how these principles are applied in the care of Mr. John, a fifty-year-old teacher diagnosed with metastatic liver cancer.
Initially, Mr. John's...

Planning Nursing Care I

5.1K
The planning phase of the nursing process helps nurses set priorities, outline patient-centered goals and expected outcomes, and tailor nursing interventions to align with the aligned care plan. Through the planning phase, the nurse applies critical thinking skills to align and develop interventions according to the patient's needs. It provides continuity of care allowing patients to receive the maximum benefit from treatment. It serves as a pilot plan for allocating individual staff to a...

Drug Dosing: Infants and Children

Pediatric patient dosages diverge from adults due to disparities in body surface area, total body water, and extracellular fluid per kilogram of body weight. The dosing regimen considers the variations in pharmacokinetics and pharmacology across distinct age groups, encompassing preterm newborns, infants, young children, older children, and adolescents. Calculation of pediatric patient doses is predicated on determining body surface area, which exhibits a superior correlation with the child's...

    Area of Science:

    • Palliative Care
    • Pediatric Healthcare
    • Clinical Outcomes

    Background:

    • Pediatric palliative care (PPC) plays a crucial role in managing symptoms and supporting families of children with serious illnesses.
    • Limited data exists on the specific requests and recommendations generated by PPC consults, particularly concerning variations based on patient location or history with PPC services.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the characteristics of PPC consult requests and recommendations.
    • To determine if these requests and recommendations differ between children in intensive care units (ICUs) versus general wards.
    • To compare PPC consults for new versus established patients.

    Main Methods:

    • A retrospective cohort study was conducted, analyzing 327 PPC encounters between January 1, 2018, and June 30, 2019.
    • Data on PPC consult requests and recommendations were compared based on patient location (ward vs. ICU) and patient type (new vs. established).
    • Bivariate statistical analyses were employed to identify significant differences.

    Main Results:

    • Symptom management was more frequently a focus in consults for ward patients compared to ICU patients.
    • Consults for new patients were initiated later in the hospital stay and more often addressed psychosocial support and goals of care compared to established patients.

    Conclusions:

    • Significant variability exists in PPC consult requests and recommendations, influenced by patient location and prior engagement with PPC services.
    • These findings highlight the need for tailored approaches and targeted education for primary providers to optimize PPC integration into pediatric care.
