Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plus l'âge augmente plus la prévalence de la douleur augmente. L'allongement de la durée moyenne de vie induit une augmentation de la fréquence de pathologies potentiellement douloureuses. L'évaluation de la douleur, première étape de la prise ne charge, est primordiale pour quantifier les douleurs. Elle permet d'en voir l'évolution et d'adapter les réponses thérapeutiques. Ces évaluations peuvent être difficiles face à un sujet âgé dément, dont les capacités cognitives sont altérées. Des outils spécifiques sont disponibles pour faciliter cette étape. La démence évolue le plus souvent, vers une perte complète de l'autonomie. Cette dépendance est le motif principal d'entrée en institution pour les personnes âgées. Un bilan de l'évaluation de la douleur a été réalisé dans deux maisons de retraite de la région parisienne.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction : La prévalence de la douleur chez les personnes âgées est élevée. Cependant, en raison d’un manque de détection, la douleur reste sous traitée, notamment chez les patients déments. Objectif principal : Déterminer comment est évaluée la douleur chez la personne âgée démente en EHPAD, notamment en recherchant si des outils d’hétéro-évaluation adaptés aux capacités cognitives sont utilisés. Méthodes : L’étude a été effectuée dans 8 unités de vie protégées de 4 EHPAD parisiens d’octobre 2012 à janvier 2013. Les dossiers de 170 patients de plus de 65 ans, ayant un diagnostic de démence, ont été étudiés à la recherche de signalements de douleurs. 41 professionnels de santé (infirmiers, aides-soignants, médecins, rééducateurs) ont rempli un questionnaire sur leurs pratiques d’évaluation de la douleur. Résultats : 72% des patients avaient une pathologie ou un soin douloureux et 52% de ces patients recevaient un antalgique. 42 dossiers (25%) contenaient un signalement de douleur dont 2 (5%) contenaient une évaluation par une échelle. Les patients non communicants avaient autant de pathologies douloureuses (p=0,73) et recevaient autant d’antalgiques (p=0,35) que les patients communicants. 73% des professionnels souhaitaient une formation sur la douleur chez la personne démente. 80% des professionnels n’utilisant pas les échelles d'hétéro-évaluation invoquaient le manque de formation comme principal frein. Conclusion : Les échelles d’hétéro-évaluation sont très peu utilisées par les professionnels de santé dans les EHPAD, principalement en raison d’un manque de formation.

This book was released on 2021 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le médecin traitant joue un rôle capital dans la prise en charge de la douleur chez la personne âgée institutionnalisée. Toutefois, bien qu'elle soit inscrite dans le cadre des priorités de santé publique, cette prise en charge semble être imparfaite. Objectif : décrire la pratique des médecins traitants face à la douleur chez la personne âgée de plus de 65 ans institutionnalisée pour identifier les obstacles rencontrés et les éventuels moyens d'amélioration de leur prise en charge. Méthode : nous avons mené une étude qualitative, entre Juillet 2019 et décembre 2019, auprès de 12 médecins généralistes consultant ou ayant consulté en EHPAD d'Ile de France en tant que médecin traitant, au travers d'entretiens individuels, semi-structurés et anonymes. Résultats : selon nos intervenants, les douleurs rencontrées en EHPAD sont souvent mixtes avec une composante psychosomatique. La douleur, en particulier chronique, a des répercussions psychomotrices majorant l'altération 'utilisation de l'état cognitif et la perte d'autonomie. L'utilisation des échelles d'évaluation de la douleur est perçue comme étant inutile, chronophage, subjectikve et souvent déléguée au personnel soignant, insuffiosamment fomé sur la question. L'état cognitif du patient ainsi que son état physique sont des freins dans la prescription des traitements, avec une pharmacocinétique difficilement gérable du fait de la polypathologie et de la polymédication. Par ailleurs, les médecins interrogés s'accordent sur la complémentarité des méthodes thérapeutiques médicamenteuses et non médicamenteuses. Toutefois, cette dernière semble être peu utilisée. Enfin, les résultats montrent un manque de formation du prescripteur et de l'intérêt d'une continuité pédagogique. Conclusion : Au regard de leur connaissance du patient, les médecins traitants sont les mieux placés dans l'accompagnement du vieillissement, en particulier dans les EHPAD. Ils se doivent d'être à l'écoute et experts des « plaintes » douloureuses de leurs patients selon une approche multidimensionnelle. Ce travail a permis de mettre en lumière l'importance d'une formation en gériatrie et / ou en douleur pour optimiser la prise en charge de la douleur chez la personne âgée institutionalisée.

This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Présentation de l'éditeur : "The interactions between law and culture in addressing the legal problems at the end of a life are currently being discussed in many countries. The discourse on this issue should be multidisciplinary, taking into account its legal, medical, ethical, philosophical and anthropological aspects. The concepts designed to manage the legal problems that occur when a life comes to an end are closely linked to the culture of each country. For this reason, countries with different cultural backgrounds have been selected for this comparative end-of-life study. In France, Germany and Italy, which have a continental legal system, the United Kingdom, which has a common law system, and India, the various religions and cultures exert an important influence on the modernisation of the legislation in this respect. The book deals with recent legislative changes and developments in the countries surveyed."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thanks to improved food, medicine, and living conditions, the average age of the population is increasing throughout the modern industrialized world. Yet, despite the recent upsurge of scholarly interest in the lives of older people and the blossoming of historical demography, little historical demographic attention has been paid to the lives of the elderly. A landmark volume, Aging in the Past marks the emergence of the historical demographic study of aging. Following a masterly explication of the new field by Peter Laslett, leading scholars in family history and historical demography offer new research results and fresh analyses that greatly increase our understanding of aging, historically and across cultures. Focusing primarily on post-Industrial Europe and the United States, they explore a range of issues under the broad topics of living arrangements, widowhood, and retirement and mortality. This important work provides a much-needed historical perspective on and suggests possible alternative solutions to the problems of the aged.

Download or read book A History of Childhood written by Colin Heywood and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2017-12-08 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Colin Heywood's classic account of childhood from the early Middle Ages to the First World War combines a long-run historical perspective with a broad geographical spread. This new, comprehensively updated edition incorporates the findings of the most recent research, and in particular revises and expands the sections on theoretical developments in the 'new social studies of childhood', on medieval conceptions of the child, on parenting and on children’s literature. Rather than merely narrating their experiences from the perspectives of adults, Heywood incorporates children’s testimonies, 'looking up' as well as 'down'. Paying careful attention to elements of continuity as well as change, he tells a story of astonishing material improvement for the lives of children in advanced societies, while showing how the business of preparing for adulthood became more and more complicated and fraught with emotional difficulties. Rich with evocative details of everyday life, and providing the most concise and readable synthesis of the literature available, Heywood's book will be indispensable to all those interested in the study of childhood.

Download or read book History of Old Age written by Georges Minois and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 1989-11-28 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: History of Old Age is the first major study of the ways in which old age has been perceived in western culture throughout history. Georges Minois paints a vast fresco, starting with the first old man to relate his own story—an Egyptian scribe some 4500 years ago—and ending with the deaths of Elizabeth I and Henry IV in the sixteenth century. Tracing the changing conceptions of the nature, value, and burden of the old, Minois argues that western history during this period is marked by great fluctuation in the social and political role of the aged. Minois shows how, in ancient Greece, the cult of youth and beauty on the one hand, and the reverence for the figure of the Homeric sage, on the other, created an ambivalent attitude toward the aged. This ambiguity appears again in the contrast between the active role that older citizens played in Roman politics and their depiction in satirical literature of the period. Christian literature in the Middle Ages also played a large part in defining society's perception of the old, both in the image of the revered holy sage and in the total condemnation of the aged sinner. Drawing on literary texts throughout, Minois considers the interrelation of literary, religious, medical, and political factors in determining the social fate of the elderly and their relationship to society. This book will be of great interest to social and cultural historians, as well as to general readers interested in the subject of the aged in society today.

Download or read book Cambridge Yearbook of European Legal Studies Vol 13 2010 2011 written by Catherine Barnard and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2011-12-15 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cambridge Yearbook of European Legal Studies provides a forum for the scrutiny of significant issues in EU Law, the law of the European Convention on Human Rights, and Comparative Law with a 'European' dimension, and particularly those issues which have come to the fore during the year preceding publication. The contributions appearing in the collection are commissioned by the Centre for European Legal Studies (CELS) Cambridge, a research centre in the Law Faculty of the University of Cambridge specialising in European legal issues. The papers presented are at the cutting edge of the fields which they address, and reflect the views of recognised experts drawn from the University world, legal practice, and the institutions of both the EU and its Member States. Inclusion of the comparative dimension brings a fresh perspective to the study of European law, and highlights the effects of globalisation of the law more generally, and the resulting cross fertilisation of norms and ideas that has occurred among previously sovereign and separate legal orders. The Cambridge Yearbook of European Legal Studies is an invaluable resource for those wishing to keep pace with legal developments in the fast moving world of European integration.

Download or read book The Long History of Old Age written by Pat Thane and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is an absorbing and startlingly original illustrated study of one of the great - and most neglected - themes in all history: the ways in which society has perceived old people throughout the ages. From increased life expectancy and 'grey gap years' to dwindling pensions, the pros and cons of aging is a constant theme, yet much of the debate continues to be based on assumptions and misconceptions about the past. Is it true, for instance, that people were considered 'old' at fifty? How far have our ideas about the average life-span in previous centuries been distorted by infant mortality? Were the old respected and cared for? Did sexuality survive into old age? Here, for the first time, a group of leading historians address these and allied questions, writing vividly about a topic of great contemporary resonance that has for too long been surrounded by taboo. The visual evidence is a vital part of the story, and here the book is equally original. Drawing upon the rich legacy of art through two millennia, with works by a wide range of artists including Whistler, Rembrandt, Rego and Freud, this enthralling human story presents a picture that is sometimes compassionate, sometimes horrifying, but overall unexpectedly reassuring.

Book excerpt: Sherwood Forest, home of Oberon, Titania, Puck, Cobweb, Peaseblossom and the rest of the mob, has been whittled away by urban development. It's time to move on, the fairies decide. Sid, their captive, a kindly if gruff young car mechanic, teaches Titania to drive, and on Midsummer's Eve the party sets off in a battered and smelly old bus. They're bound for the New Forest, where they hope to be able to regenerate their magic. The fairies' journey is full of excitement. At a village fair, they show the morris dancers how to cut previously undreamt-of capers. Titania falls in love with a human baby and steals her from her pram, starting a nationwide search for the missing infant. The fairies then link up with a group of New Age travellers on their way to Stonehenge, who befriend them almost without question. Finally, a fight to the death between Titania and the terrifying and sadistic Morgan-le-Fey must take place before everyone can settle down into some form of harmony and peace.
