Dementia01:30

Dementia

139
Dementia is a collective term for cognitive disorders primarily affecting memory, thinking, and reasoning. It is not a specific disease but a syndrome, with Alzheimer's disease being the most common cause, accounting for approximately 60-80% of cases. Other types include vascular dementia, Lewy body dementia, and frontotemporal dementia. Dementia affects millions worldwide, particularly older adults, though it is not a normal part of aging.
The progression of dementia is generally gradual....

Techniques of therapeutic communication I: Active Listening, Sharing Observations, Validation, and Using Touch

4.9K
The history of therapeutic communication can be traced back to Florence Nightingale, who emphasized the importance of developing trusting relationships with patients. She taught that the presence of nurses with patients results in therapeutic healing.
Therapeutic communication is not the same as social interaction. Social interaction has no goal or purpose and consists of casual information sharing, whereas therapeutic communication has a plan or purpose for the conversation. Therapeutic...

Alzheimer's Disease: Treatment

213
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...

Heart Failure VII: Nursing Interventions

94
The first step in nursing management of a patient with heart failure involves thoroughly assessing the patient's medical history.Subjective Data: Obtain the patient's medical history of coronary artery disease, hypertension, myocardial infarction, and symptoms like dyspnea, orthopnea, and paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea.Objective Data: Conduct a physical examination to identify findings such as jugular vein distention, pulmonary crackles, tachycardia, murmurs, peripheral edema, and vital signs,...

Peripheral Artery Disease III: Interprofessional Care

11
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...

Pulse rhythm01:30

Pulse rhythm

833
Pulse rhythm refers to the pattern of pulsations within specific intervals, offering valuable insights into the regularity or irregularity of the heart's beats as observed through the pattern of pulsation within specific intervals. A regular pulse exhibits a consistent heart rate with uniform waveforms and pulsation force, variations of which can be classified as normal, weak, or bounding.
Conversely, an irregular pulse pattern is termed dysrhythmia, stemming from disruptions in cardiac...

Area of Science:

  • Geriatric Medicine
  • Psychiatry
  • Nursing

Background:

  • Agitation is a common behavioural and psychological symptom of dementia (BPSD).
  • Pharmacotherapy for agitation carries risks, especially in the elderly.
  • Non-pharmacological interventions like music are explored, but hospital-based studies are limited.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the feasibility of a personalised music listening intervention for hospitalised dementia patients.
  • To assess the impact of music on agitation in a Geriatric Evaluation and Management (GEM) unit.
  • To explore staff perspectives on implementing music interventions.

Main Methods:

  • A two-arm randomised control feasibility trial was conducted.
  • Patients received either a personalised music intervention or were in a control group.
  • Agitation was measured hourly using the Pittsburgh Agitation Score (PAS) over 5 days.

Main Results:

  • Twenty-one patients were recruited over 8 months.
  • Staff found the music intervention manageable and beneficial for patient engagement.
  • The intervention challenged staff's reliance on psychotropic medication for agitation.

Conclusions:

  • Personalised music listening is a feasible intervention for nursing staff to deliver to hospitalised dementia patients.
  • The intervention can be implemented in a tertiary hospital geriatric unit without compromising usual care.
