Filter by:The food intake is often compromised in the elderly, and during hospitalization, dietary restrictions may be imposed, making them more susceptible to the risk of malnutrition and sarcopenia. It is essential to make an early identification of the elderly with low intake and involve them in their self-care. The aims will be assess the influence of the nutritionist's educational action to increase protein intake in elderly patients, to analyze the knowledge on its importance in the prevention of sarcopenia and to identify the prevalence of nutritional risk. This is a field, prospective, correlational, comparative and randomized study. The elderly patients will be randomized into a Control Group and Intervention Group.
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality all over the world. Smoking is considered as an important risk factor, but other risk factors are present. Around 30 % of patients with COPD are non-smokers. Cessation of smoking in patients with COPD causes decreases the presence of micronodules and other criteria of CT chest. In last few years, some researchers reported that cessation of smoking raise the apparent extent of emphysema. The cause is not obvious, but this paradoxical fall in lung density is thaught to be resulting from decrease in inflammation after smoking cessation. CT chest criteria of COPD in active smokers, non-smokers and ex-smokers seem to be different. So, comparison between CT chest Criteria of COPD in smokers, ex-smokers and non-smokers will be searched in this study to detect the role of multislice computed tomography (MSCT) chest in differentiation between COPD patients according to their smoking status.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of enhanced features in an online patient portal including banners, a chatbot, and direct to patient message and traditional mailed letters on increasing interest in research among online patient portal users.
The objective of the study is to assess which health-related questionnaire is the most accurate and reliable. The hypothesis is that some health-related questionnaires are more reliable than others.
Application of Involvement Matrix in young people with Cerebral Palsy (GMFCS levels IV and V) from 12 to 17 years old with the purpose of improving the participation of this group in community leisure activities
The SPRING project intends to develop a social assistance robot, called ARI, capable of interacting with several users (patients, families) in noisy and busy hospital environments to inform, guide and entertain them and to support care workers in these environments. The AP-HP researchers participating in the SPRING project wish to evaluate human-robot interactions in a day care hospital and in particular the acceptability and the uses of the robot.
Since December 2020 Nationwide anti-COVID-19 vaccination began in Israel using the Pfizer - BioNtech vaccine (BNT162b2 mRNA). The vaccination campaign has been associated with concerns regarding potential detrimental effects on future fertility. The aim of the study is to determine the impact of COVID-19 vaccination on n AMH- Anti Mullerian Hormone which express ovarin function. disease and/or immunization on human follicular function, by comparing follicular steroidogenesis, response to the LH/hCG trigger, and oocyte quality biomarker (HSPG2), in the aspirated follicular fluid of patients undergoing ovum pick-up.
The Telehealth Usability Questionnaire (TUQ) was developed to evaluate the usability of telehealth applications and services. The Turkish validity and reliability study of the scale, originally in English, has not been conducted before. The aim of this study is to develop the Turkish version of the Telehealth Usability Questionnaire (TUQ), which is a new stability tool, and to report its reliability assessment.
Out objective is to identify the mechanisms that promote hepatic and myocardial fibrosis, and collateral vessel formation in patients with complex congenital heart disease and Fontan circulation.
The outcomes of patients who undergo radical surgery for locally advanced and recurrent rectal cancer have improved vastly, but there is a lack of emphasis on the quality-of-life outcomes of these patients. This study will assess the patient experience of having a stoma for urinary diversion as part of surgery for advanced pelvic malignancy. This will be assessed at regular intervals both before and after surgery with the goal of increasing awareness of patient beliefs and concerns with regards to their stomas and to devise interventions that will improve their quality-of-life.
