Filter by:The aim of this study is to develop and validate a self-report questionnaire to evalutate the satisfaction of the children after surgery.
Endoscopy procedure is a frequently used method in the evaluation of the gastrointestinal system. Upper gastrointestinal system endoscopy can be performed with and without sedation. Sedation is the controlled sleep of the patient with certain drugs (pharmacological methods). Non-pharmacological methods help reduce anxiety and pain. In this study, a non-pharmacological stress ball will be used. It is aimed to evaluate the effect of using a stress ball on pain, anxiety and satisfaction during upper gastrointestinal system endoscopy.
Communication with patients on their clinical status is important in delivering care in the emergency department. During times of high volume or complex patients, there may be lapses in communicating with patients about their hospital course or plans of action. These miscommunications may be enhanced during the current COVID-19 pandemic as there is minimized in-person interaction with patients in order to conserve personal protective equipment and decrease the risk of disease transmission. This study utilizes a virtual white board to deliver updates to patients about the status of their emergency department stay.
Sexual health and satisfaction are well know as critical critera to assess quality of life, at any age. Among the multiple aspects of sexual health, erectile dysfunction (ED) is not anymore a fate, mainly thanks to the advent of phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitors in 1998. Nevertheless, a significant part of patients are intolerant or does not respond to PDE5 inhibitors and thus are looking for other treatment options. Since the first implantation of foreign material intracarvernosally in 1966 by Beheri, multiple modifications and enhancements were achieved in order to produce devices more reliable with a more natural appearance. First introduced in 1973 by Scott et al., inflatable prosthesis provides now high general satisfaction rates (69-94%), better than in malleable prostheses, except for few authors. In addition to changes in materials and construction, the two main manufacturers of IPP, Boston scientific AMS (Marlborough, MA, USA) and Coloplast (Minneapolis, MN, USA), modernized the pump mechanism of their devices. Since the introduction of AMS IPP, three main pump formats have been used : the standard pump has been replaced in 2004 by the " Tactile " pump and then the " Momentary Squeeze " (MS) pump in 2006, smaller and easier to deflate by not requiring the patient to hold the deflation button throughout deflation. Coloplast also replaced in 2008 their " Genesis " pump by a " One Touch Release " (OTR) pump, and finally in 2014 by the current " Touch " pump, smaller, and presenting a biconcave deflation button, easier to find. Despite all technological advances, appropriate pre-operative counselling and careful post-operative teachning, a significant part of patients has still difficulties to handle the pump and thus, does not use their IPP, regardless of any material malfunction. That situation obviously leads to patient's dissatisfaction and highlights the operating risks of a useless surgical procedure. The purposes of this study were:to identify the risks factors, modifiable and non-modifiable, for patients' difficulty to inflate and/or deflate their device after IPP implantation, then to show a correlation between easy handling and post-operative satisfaction. And last but not least, to show an association between pre-operative pump pattern viewing and handling and post-operative easy handling. That information could help the physicians to improve the pre-operative selection of patients and to adapt the peri-operative care in order to improve patients satisfaction.
In the last ten years, gerontechnology is becoming an increasing topic in geriatric medicine. Nevertheless, there are still few studies assessing the usability of technologies in old patients, especially when they are hospitalized. Moreover, it has been shown that new technologies could be a source of ageism, thence the importance of involving the old people in the development of these technologies. Tik easy is a subsidiary of La Poste Company. Tik easy as designed a new tablet PC for old people. Research tends to show that the use of tablet PC can promote health and well-aging, and delay cognitive decline. In this study, we want to give a free access to "Ardoiz", the tablet PC designed by Tik easy, for old patients hospitalized in a geriatric acute care unit. The "Ardoiz" tablet PC allows to: - Maintain the family and social bond (send and receive messages, share photos and videos, call remotely between the patient and his family) - Discovering the Internet at his own pace (browse the Internet with daily updated contents such as news, content on cooking, music, etc.). - Prevent cognitive aging (stimulate cognitive abilities with the DYNSEO games). - Facilitate online administrative procedures.
We propose to study the effects of Physician Orders for Scope of Treatment (POST) Facilitation in a randomized controlled trial in a population of community dwelling older adults who qualify for POLST facilitation, including those with normal cognition and those with Alzheimer's Disease and Related Disorders.
Prolapse of the pelvic organs is a common pathology in women with a strong impact on the quality of life. Its prevalence tends to increase due to increased life expectancy and obesity. The main treatment is surgical and involves all organ specialists dealing with pelvic-perineal functional disorders: urologists, gynecologists, digestive surgeons. Our team wishes to evaluate, on a cohort of patients operated at the Caen University Hospital, the functional uro-gynecologic, digestive and sexual results of pelvic organ prolapse (POP) repair by Laparoscopic Promontofixation (PFL) through symptoms and quality of life validated questionnaires (QoL). The analysis of the responses to these questionnaires will allow us to evaluate the functional results in the short and medium term (from 6 months to 5 years)
The primary purpose of this study is to examine physical fitness, PTSD, and satisfaction with a Tai Chi intervention for older (aged 60 and older), sedentary, trauma-exposed veterans, in comparison to a wellness education attention control. Secondary outcomes include physical activity, depression, well-being, late-onset stress, functional status, cognition, and exercise self-efficacy. Outcomes will be examined pre- to post-intervention and in comparison to the control condition.
Genital prolapse is a common pathology with a prevalence ranging from 2.9 to 11.4% or 31.8% to 97.7%, depending on whether a questionnaire or clinical examination is used. The use of pessary in the treatment of prolapse remains discussed despite a satisfaction rate of 50 to 80% in the literature and a minimal complications rate. The main objective of this study is to assess the satisfaction of patients carrying a pessary in the first year after the laying.
The study investigates the safety and performance of Silimed® silicone gel breast implants with a textured surface and Silimed® silicone gel breast implants with polyurethane coated surface. Female patients who underwent primary or secondary breast augmentation using Silimed® breast implants will be followed-up through 10 years. The safety of each type of Silimed® breast implant is going to be assessed by estimating the known and unexpected short- and long-term risk / adverse event rates. The performance of each type of Silimed® breast implant is going to be assesses by estimating the satisfaction and quality of life after implantation.
