Book D  veloppement et   valuation d une simulation num  rique visant    am  liorer les habilet  s relationnelles des infirmi  res dans un contexte de formation continue

Download or read book D veloppement et valuation d une simulation num rique visant am liorer les habilet s relationnelles des infirmi res dans un contexte de formation continue written by Geneviève Rouleau (Infirmière) and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les personnes vivant avec le VIH (PVVIH) doivent recourir à un traitement antirétroviral (TAR) à vie pour contrôler leur charge virale et prévenir la transmission du virus. Nombreuses interventions ont ciblé le comportement individuel des PVVIH à prendre leur TAR, mais très peu d’entre elles ont visé la pratique professionnelle des infirmières alors qu’elles sont des acteurs clés dans les soins prodigués à ces personnes. Les infirmières ont une responsabilité sociale et professionnelle de respecter les normes de formation continue afin de développer de nouvelles compétences et de les maintenir à jour pour offrir des soins sécuritaires et de qualité à leur clientèle. Les technologies représentent une modalité prometteuse pour la formation numérique et la prestation des soins. Deux revues systématiques de revues systématiques ont été réalisées pour examiner les effets des technologies de l’information et des communications en santé de même que la formation numérique sur les soins infirmiers. Ce projet doctoral poursuit deux buts généraux : 1) Développer une simulation numérique ; 2) Évaluer quantitativement et qualitativement l’acceptabilité de la simulation auprès des infirmières. Deux objectifs ont permis de développer la simulation : 1.1) Explorer la pratique infirmière et ses défis dans l’accompagnement des PVVIH sous TAR ; 1.2) Décrire le processus de codéveloppement de la simulation et les leçons apprises. L’évaluation de la simulation a été répondue à l’aide de trois objectifs : 2.1) Mesurer les perceptions des infirmières quant aux éléments composant la simulation, sa qualité globale et l’acceptation de la technologie, le rôle de la simulation pour soutenir la pratique professionnelle et l’atteinte des objectifs d’apprentissage ; 2.2) Explorer l’expérience d’apprentissage ; 2.3) Comprendre comment la simulation numérique contribue au renforcement des habiletés relationnelles, à la progression et au transfert des apprentissages en pratique. Une étude qualitative a permis d’explorer la pratique infirmière et ses défis. Parmi les défis identifiés, notons particulièrement le manque de ressources pour aider un patient dont la prise du traitement est sous-optimale. Ce défi a été transformé en opportunité d’apprentissage dans un scénario clinique simulant l’histoire d’un patient virtuel pour qui la prise du TAR est difficile. Une approche collaborative a permis le codéveloppement de cette simulation numérique, soutenue par l’entretien motivationnel. Une consultation infirmière-patient avec des schèmes de communication préprogrammés a été scénarisée pour favoriser l’application d’habiletés relationnelles auprès du patient virtuel. L’apprentissage actif est illustré par des « quiz1 » et des rétroactions qui permettent d’apprendre de ses erreurs. L’évaluation de cette simulation a été réalisée à l’aide d’une étude mixte à devis convergent. Une étude préexpérimentale à groupe unique post-intervention a permis de décrire les perceptions de 27 infirmières quant à la simulation, à l’aide d’un questionnaire en ligne (80 énoncés). Cinq infirmières sur 27 ont participé à la composante qualitative, en partageant leur expérience d’apprentissage via un groupe de discussion en ligne. Une approche narrative a facilité l’intégration des résultats quantitatifs et qualitatifs pour enrichir la compréhension de ce qui a contribué à la progression des apprentissages. Les infirmières ont évalué favorablement l’acceptabilité de la simulation, dont sa qualité globale, l’acceptation de la technologie et les rôles de la simulation sur la pratique. Les infirmières perçoivent que la simulation permet de réfléchir globalement à leur pratique, d’améliorer leurs habiletés de communication et la qualité de la relation thérapeutique. Quatre thèmes illustrent l’expérience d’apprentissage : 1) Motivations à s’engager dans la recherche ; 2) Apprentissage dans un environnement réaliste, immersif, et de non-jugement ; 3) Utilité perçue de la simulation sur le plan des connaissances, de la réflexion, des habiletés relationnelles (importance de la communication, de l’écoute, de la présence) ; 4) Difficultés à s’engager dans la recherche. Les constats mixtes interprétatifs sont les suivants : 1) Le réalisme de la simulation donne l’impression d’avoir une pratique infirmière réelle et une expérience immersive ; 2) Une simulation flexible, perçue efficace et permettant le contrôle sur son apprentissage contribuent positivement à l’expérience ; 3) Conscientisation du soi et réflexion sur sa pratique relationnelle; 4) Consolidation des apprentissages et meilleure confiance en ses capacités.

Book D  veloppement et validation d un outil d   valuation de la qualit   des soins infirmiers en mati  re de contention chimique

Download or read book D veloppement et validation d un outil d valuation de la qualit des soins infirmiers en mati re de contention chimique written by Catherine Hupé and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Problème. L'administration de médicaments aux propriétés sédatives pour la gestion des symptômes comportementaux, aussi appelée contention chimique, est une intervention complexe dont les finalités de contrôle, de protection, de traitement et d'alternative à d'autres coercitions entrent en conflit et sèment le désaccord chez les acteurs en établissements de santé. Tous s'entendent toutefois sur la nécessité d'en mesurer l'usage et d'évaluer la conformité des pratiques des soignants aux normes de qualité applicable. Or, à l'heure actuelle, aucune définition opérationnelle de la contention chimique, aucun outil ni indicateur de qualité des soins valide ne permet d'évaluer l'usage des contentions chimiques. But. Cette étude métrologique a pour but de développer et de valider un outil d'évaluation réflexive de la qualité des soins en matière de contention chimique de la perspective de l'infirmière. Méthodologie. Quatre questions de recherche rassemblées en deux grandes phases de l'étude ont permis de poursuivre ce but, lors desquelles des méthodes qualitatives et quantitatives ont été utilisées. La phase de développement de l'outil d'évaluation réflexive impliquait la conduite d'une revue réaliste pour rassembler, à l'intérieur d'un modèle théorique, un inventaire d'items potentiels. Cette méthode systématique de synthèse des connaissances suggère une étape préliminaire destinée à clarifier la nature et les contextes de déploiement de l'intervention d'intérêt, ici l'usage des contentions chimiques. Pour ce faire, un examen de la portée a été réalisé. Puis, une technique Delphi a permis la validation du contenu des items recensés, lesquels ont ensuite été intégrés dans une plateforme virtuelle d'évaluation réflexive qui permet de mesurer les perceptions des professionnelles en charge de la décision d'administrer la contention chimique, soit les infirmières. L'outil d'évaluation au format innovant, appelé E-value-action, a ensuite été pré-testé pour une appréciation de la validité apparente (face validity) auprès de futurs- utilisateurs d'un Centre intégré universitaire de santé et de services sociaux (CIUSSS) du Québec, Canada, lesquels ont offert une rétroaction qualitative suite à une simulation d'évaluation. Résultats. L'examen de la portée basé sur 33 articles de provenance internationale a fait ressortir la nécessité d'élargir le concept à définir et à mesurer pour aborder la contention chimique comme une notion synonyme à la sédation des symptômes comportementaux. Ensuite, par le biais de la revue réaliste, 28 normes de pratique répertoriées dans 45 articles scientifiques ou textes de lignes directrices ont pu être insérées au modèle théorique puis libellés sous forme d'items à intégrer à l'outil d'évaluation. Ces normes, appuyées d'exemples concrets, reflètent la qualité des soins infirmiers en trois contextes principaux : les soins en santé mentale, les soins aigus à l'adulte et les soins de longue durée à la clientèle âgée. Au niveau de la validité de contenu, les items de l'outil ont présenté un degré d'accord sur la clarté des items de 90% et de 95% sur la pertinence, témoignant d'un consensus (>70%) chez le panel d'experts chercheurs, gestionnaires et cliniciens (n = 20) de différentes régions administratives du Québec, Canada. L'adéquation de la plateforme virtuelle d'évaluation et l'intérêt pour son implantation en contextes cliniques ressortent de l'analyse des données de la validité apparente auprès d'infirmières en soins directs (n = 7) d'un CIUSSS québécois. Discussion. L'usage de cet outil d'évaluation réflexive devrait favoriser l'intégration des normes de pratique en soins infirmiers en plus de promouvoir une culture de réduction des mesures de contrôle favorable à des soins plus sécuritaires, efficaces et centrés sur la personne. Une validation ultérieure à plus grande échelle et la traduction du contenu d'E-value-action avec validations transculturelles sont recommandées pour soutenir les nombreux états/provinces et pays anglophones qui possèdent, comme le Québec, une règlementation sur la réduction ou l'usage d'exception des mesures de contrôle dont la substance chimique.

Book Discourse In Educational And Social Research

Download or read book Discourse In Educational And Social Research written by Maclure, Maggie and published by McGraw-Hill Education (UK). This book was released on 2003-03-01 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WINNER: 2004 AESA Critics' Choice Award "With wonderful clarity Maggie MacLure shows how deconstructionism opens new avenues of critical inquiry and understanding for educational researchers. In exposing the hidden, ideological side of terms like clarity, certainty, mastery, and relevance she allows us to see schooling and educational policy in new ways. In so doing she allows us to imagine classrooms as liberating, pedagogical places, as places where new forms of desire, knowledge, and learning take place" Norman K. Denzin, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign This book is both practical and provocative. It demonstrates the insights and the challenges of a discourse-based orientation to educational and social research. Drawing on a variety of educational and social science 'texts' - including press articles, life history interviews, parent-teacher consultations, policy debates and ethnographies - the author shows how knowledge, power, identities and realities are constructed and problematised in discourse. The book also deals with research itself as discursive practice, examining the texts that qualitative researchers produce and consume: reports, monographs, journal articles. Practical examples are included for researchers and graduate students wishing to 'interrogate' their own data from a discourse perspective. The author develops a critical awareness of the researcher's role as writer/reader of texts. The book makes the case for 'discursive literacy' in research. While its primary allegiances are to poststructuralism and deconstruction, it draws from a wide range of disciplines, including interaction sociology, feminist ethnography, literary theory, critical discourse analysis and art history. What holds the book together is the persistent question: how to do educational research and social research within a 'crisis of representation' that has unsettled the relationship between words and worlds?

Book Developing Student Autonomy in Learning

Download or read book Developing Student Autonomy in Learning written by Boud, David and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-11-12 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First Published in 1987. The assumption about the purpose of education, to which the authors of this book subscribe, is that it is to produce autonomous lifelong learners. This book is about a very important goal of education and how it can be translated into practice. It concerns ways in which teachers in higher education can enable students to become more autonomous in their learning; that is, assist students to learn more effectively without the constant presence or intervention of a teacher.

Download or read book Action Research written by Jean McNiff and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2002-01-22 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the first edition of this established text was published in 1988, action research has gained ground as a popular method amongst educational researchers, and in particular for practising teachers doing higher-level courses. In this new edition Jean McNiff provides updates on methodological discussions and includes new sections of case study material and information on supporting action research. The book raises issues about how action research is theorised, whether it is seen as a spectator discipline or as a real life practice, and how practitioners position themselves within the debate. It discusses the importance for educators of understanding their own work and showing how their educative influence can lead to the development of good orders in formal and informal learning settings and in the wider community. This second edition comes at a time when, after years of debate over what counts as action research, it is now considered an acceptable and useful part of mainstream research practice.

Book A Foucault Primer

Download or read book A Foucault Primer written by Alec McHoul and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-03-24 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who are we today? That deceptively simple question continued to be asked by the French historian and philosopher, Michel Foucault, who for the last three decades has had a profound influence on English-speaking scholars in the humanities and social sciences.; This text is designed for undergraduates and others who feel in need of some assistance when coming to grips with Foucault's voluminous and complex writings. Instead of dealing with them chronologically, however, this book concentrates on some of their central concepts, primarily Foucault's rethinking of the categories of "discourse", "power", and " the subject".; Foucault's writings contribute collectively to what he himself calls "an ontology of the present". His historical research was always geared towards showing how things could have been and still could be otherwise. This is especially the case with respect to the production of human subjects.

Book The Patient Will See You Now

Download or read book The Patient Will See You Now written by Eric Topol and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2016-10-25 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essential guide by one of America's leading doctors to how digital technology enables all of us to take charge of our health A trip to the doctor is almost a guarantee of misery. You'll make an appointment months in advance. You'll probably wait for several hours until you hear "the doctor will see you now"-but only for fifteen minutes! Then you'll wait even longer for lab tests, the results of which you'll likely never see, unless they indicate further (and more invasive) tests, most of which will probably prove unnecessary (much like physicals themselves). And your bill will be astronomical. In The Patient Will See You Now, Eric Topol, one of the nation's top physicians, shows why medicine does not have to be that way. Instead, you could use your smartphone to get rapid test results from one drop of blood, monitor your vital signs both day and night, and use an artificially intelligent algorithm to receive a diagnosis without having to see a doctor, all at a small fraction of the cost imposed by our modern healthcare system. The change is powered by what Topol calls medicine's "Gutenberg moment." Much as the printing press took learning out of the hands of a priestly class, the mobile internet is doing the same for medicine, giving us unprecedented control over our healthcare. With smartphones in hand, we are no longer beholden to an impersonal and paternalistic system in which "doctor knows best." Medicine has been digitized, Topol argues; now it will be democratized. Computers will replace physicians for many diagnostic tasks, citizen science will give rise to citizen medicine, and enormous data sets will give us new means to attack conditions that have long been incurable. Massive, open, online medicine, where diagnostics are done by Facebook-like comparisons of medical profiles, will enable real-time, real-world research on massive populations. There's no doubt the path forward will be complicated: the medical establishment will resist these changes, and digitized medicine inevitably raises serious issues surrounding privacy. Nevertheless, the result-better, cheaper, and more human health care-will be worth it. Provocative and engrossing, The Patient Will See You Now is essential reading for anyone who thinks they deserve better health care. That is, for all of us.

Book Computers and Games for Mental Health and Well Being

Download or read book Computers and Games for Mental Health and Well Being written by Yasser Khazaal and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2018-07-12 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent years have seen important developments in the computer and game industry, including the emergence of the concept of serious games. It is hypothesized that tools such as games, virtual reality, or applications for smartphones may foster learning, enhance motivation, promote behavioral change, support psychotherapy, favor empowerment, and improve some cognitive functions. Computers and games may create supports for training or help people with cognitive, emotional, or behavioral change. Games take various formats, from board games to informatics to games with interactive rules of play. Similarly, computer tools may vary widely in format, from self-help or assisted computerized training to virtual reality or applications for smartphones. Some tools that may be helpful for mental health were specifically designed for that goal, whereas others were not. Gamification of computer-related products and games with a numeric format tend to reduce the gap between games and computers tools and increase the conceptual synergy in such fields. Games and computer design share an opportunity for creativity and innovation to help create, specifically design, and assess preventive or therapeutic tools. Computers and games share a design conception that allows innovative approaches to overcome barriers of the real world by creating their own rules. Yet, despite the potential interest in such tools to improve treatment of mental disorders and to help prevent them, the field remains understudied and information is under-disseminated in clinical practice. Some studies have shown, however, that there is potential interest and acceptability of tools that support various vehicles, rationales, objectives, and formats. These tools include traditional games (e.g., chess games), popular electronic games, board games, computer-based interventions specifically designed for psychotherapy or cognitive training, virtual reality, apps for smartphones, and so forth. Computers and games may offer a true opportunity to develop, assess, and disseminate new prevention and treatment tools for mental health and well-being. Currently, there is a strong need for state-of-the-art information to answer questions such as the following: Why develop such tools for mental health and well-being? What are the potential additions to traditional treatments? What are the best strategies or formats to improve the possible impact of these tools? Are such tools useful as a first treatment step? What is the potential of a hybrid model of care that combines traditional approaches with games and/or computers as tools? What games and applications have already been designed and studied? What is the evidence from previous studies? How can such tools be successfully designed for mental health and well-being? What is rewarding or attractive for patients in using such treatments? What are the worldwide developments in the field? Are some protocols under development? What are the barriers and challenges related to such developments? How can these tools be assessed, and how can the way that they work, and for whom, be measured? Are the potential benefits of such products specific, or can these additions be attributed to nonspecific factors? What are the users’ views on such tools? What are the possible links between such tools and social networks? Is there a gap between evidence-based results and market development? Are there any quality challenges? What future developments and studies are needed in the field?

Book Human Error in Medicine

Download or read book Human Error in Medicine written by Marilyn Sue Bogner and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-02-06 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited collection of articles addresses aspects of medical care in which human error is associated with unanticipated adverse outcomes. For the purposes of this book, human error encompasses mismanagement of medical care due to: * inadequacies or ambiguity in the design of a medical device or institutional setting for the delivery of medical care; * inappropriate responses to antagonistic environmental conditions such as crowding and excessive clutter in institutional settings, extremes in weather, or lack of power and water in a home or field setting; * cognitive errors of omission and commission precipitated by inadequate information and/or situational factors -- stress, fatigue, excessive cognitive workload. The first to address the subject of human error in medicine, this book considers the topic from a problem oriented, systems perspective; that is, human error is considered not as the source of the problem, but as a flag indicating that a problem exists. The focus is on the identification of the factors within the system in which an error occurs that contribute to the problem of human error. As those factors are identified, efforts to alleviate them can be instituted and reduce the likelihood of error in medical care. Human error occurs in all aspects of human activity and can have particularly grave consequences when it occurs in medicine. Nearly everyone at some point in life will be the recipient of medical care and has the possibility of experiencing the consequences of medical error. The consideration of human error in medicine is important because of the number of people that are affected, the problems incurred by such error, and the societal impact of such problems. The cost of those consequences to the individuals involved in medical error, both in the health care providers' concern and the patients' emotional and physical pain, the cost of care to alleviate the consequences of the error, and the cost to society in dollars and in lost personal contributions, mandates consideration of ways to reduce the likelihood of human error in medicine. The chapters were written by leaders in a variety of fields, including psychology, medicine, engineering, cognitive science, human factors, gerontology, and nursing. Their experience was gained through actual hands-on provision of medical care and/or research into factors contributing to error in such care. Because of the experience of the chapter authors, their systematic consideration of the issues in this book affords the reader an insightful, applied approach to human error in medicine -- an approach fortified by academic discipline.
