Filter by:Falls are a frequent and serious problem in old people. It is estimated that one-third of subjects over 65 years of age and 50% of those over 85 years of age have at least one fall per year (1). The traumatic and psychological consequences of falls contribute to the loss of functional independence and lead to early institutionalization (2). All activities of daily living require us to maintain a state of postural balance, whether standing, sitting, static or dynamic. Thus, good coordination is essential to maintain balance, reflecting both peripheral (muscular) and central (cognitive) motor control (3,4). Coordination skills between posture and movement decline during aging without associated disorder, and even more so when this aging is associated by cognitive disorders (5,6). On the contrary, as part of a balance rehabilitation program, an adapted training allows the partial recovery of the balance management process in elderly subjects who fall (7). Le Qoos® by LudHealth is technical foam equipment, which can be installed on the wall, to practice various physical exercises. It can therefore be used as a simple support, leaning on with hands, arms, feet or even the head, exerting contact points, pressures or even impacts with more or less force. Le Qoos® is an equipment that allows to perform, on the same object, gentle or tonic exercises, balance, flexibility, sheathing or muscle strengthening while having fun. We hypothesize that cognitive-physical stimulation workshops based on the use of the device Le Qoos® and is environment are i) adapted to geriatric fall prevention issues, ii) accessible to elderly hospitalized patients and health professionals, and iii) effective and safe to maintain and/or recover postural balance in elderly hospitalized patients. First step of this work is to assess whether "Le Qoos" is considered as usable par end-users of the device.
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.
This study incorporates a virtual reality (VR) simulated walking environment, with audio component of patient education, into the treadmill portion of outpatient cardiac rehabilitation (CR). The VR program was developed by Plas.MD and is named Bionautica Trails.
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)
This will be an open label pilot randomized controlled clinical trial. Women undergoing cesarean delivery will be randomized to have standard wound dressing care or chlorohexidine gluconate (CHG) impregnated wound dressing (ReliaTect™ Post-Op Dressing).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of two methods of administering an adductor canal block (ACB) following total knee arthroplasty (TKA); intraoperative surgeon performed intra-articular adductor canal block (IACB) and anesthesiologist ultrasound guided ADC in the post-anesthesia recovery unit (PACU).
This study assesses the effect of adjusting the occlusal surface of a custom-made mouthguard on the degree of satisfaction with a mouthguard among water polo players. Twenty-four water polo players will wear a custom-made conventional mouthguard and a custom-made mouthguard with occlusal adjustment, two weeks per mouthguard. They will wear it during training sessions and for competing. The sequence will be randomized to obtain one-half of the participants starting the first week wearing the conventional mouthguard, and the other half wearing the mouthguard with occlusal adjustment. The participants will rate the degree of interference with oral functions or discomfort in reference to speech, breathing, swallowing, gag reflex, fits too tight, fits too loose, aesthetics and athletic performance, in a 10-point scale, considering 0 no discomfort/interference and 10 maximum discomfort/interference. After each session, players also rated the perception of protection, the degree of improvement on athletic performance and the degree of satisfaction in a 10-point scale, considering 0 no protection/satisfaction and 10 maximum protection/satisfaction.
The objective of the study is to determine if playing the song "Weightless" by Marconi Union during labor epidural placement, decreases laboring parturient anxiety and improves satisfaction with the experience.
Human Papillomavirus (HPV) is a significant public health issue affecting nearly 14 million people in the United States. HPV can lead to cervical, oropharyngeal, anal, and penile cancers as well as genital warts.The purpose of this study is to test the comparative effectiveness of two interventions, AFIX only vs. AFIX + communication training, to increase Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination rates among adolescent patients in outpatient clinic settings. Providers and staff at four pediatric practices will be randomized to receive an in-person AFIX consultation or an AFIX consultation combined with communication training and commitment poster displays. Provider and parent data will be collected via a tablet computer RedCap survey. Additional practice and provider level HPV vaccination rates will be collected via patient de-identified claims data. The results of this study could contribute to the existing body of literature that suggests provider recommendations and routine vaccination assessments are key to increasing HPV vaccination uptake. This project has the potential to lead to the implementation and dissemination of low resource interventions to increase HPV vaccination rates among children and adolescents.
