Dies ist ein Open-Access-Buch.Trotz des schnellen Wachstums des Anteils der Bevölkerung in einem Alter ab 80 Jahren an der Gesamtbevölkerung ist das Wissen über diese Bevölkerungsgruppe bislang gering. Zwar gibt es thematisch, methodisch und regional spezifische Studien, jedoch keine repräsentative Erfassung der Lebenssituation und Lebensqualität dieser Altersgruppe für den gesamtdeutschen Raum. Eine gute Datenlage ist jedoch notwendig: Zum einen, um den besonderen Unterstützungsbedarfen im hohen Alter zukünftig besser gerecht werden zu können. Zum anderen, um Lösungsansätze für sozialpolitische Herausforderungen wie der sozialen Sicherung im Alter sowie im Hinblick auf eine Generationengerechtigkeit entwickeln zu können. Schließlich, um negativen Altersbildern und Vorurteilen über die Lebensqualität im hohen Alter empirisch fundiert entgegenwirken zu können. Die Studie "Hohes Alter in Deutschland¿ (D80+) ist eine bundesweit repräsentative Querschnittsbefragung der hochaltrigen Menschen in Privathaushalten und in Heimen. Sie wird vom Bundesministerium für Familie, Senioren, Frauen und Jugend (BMFSFJ) gefördert und gemeinsam vom Cologne Center for Ethics, Rights, Economics, and Social Sciences of Health (ceres) und dem Deutschen Zentrum für Altersfragen (DZA) durchgeführt. Die Studie vereint Perspektiven der an den beteiligten Institutionen verorteten Disziplinen wie Soziologie, Psychologie, Versorgungswissenschaften, Gerontologie und Medizin. Im vorliegenden Band werden zentrale Befunde u.a. zu den Themenbereichen Soziale und Digitale Teilhabe, Gesundheit und Versorgung, sowie Werte und subjektives Wohlbefinden vorgestellt.

A practical guide for the nursing care of neonates within hospital and home settings for the first year of life.

While medical specialists in disaster mitigation, preparedness, and response are needed worldwide, the initial phase of disaster response is almost entirely dependent upon local resources-making it essential that all healthcare personnel have a working knowledge of the field and stand ready to integrate into the response system. Ciottone's Disaster Medicine, 3rd Edition, is the most comprehensive reference available to help accomplish these goals in every community. It thoroughly covers isolated domestic events as well as global disasters and humanitarian crises. Dr. Gregory Ciottone and more than 200 worldwide authorities share their knowledge and expertise on the preparation, assessment, and management of both natural and man-made disasters, including lessons learned by the responders to contemporary disasters such as the COVID-19 pandemic, Australian and western U.S. wildfires, European heatwaves, the Beirut explosion, recent hurricanes and typhoons, and the global refugee crisis. Part 1 offers an A-to-Z resource for every aspect of disaster medicine and management, while Part 2 features an exhaustive compilation of every conceivable disaster event, organized to facilitate quick reference in a real-time setting. Covers basic concepts such as identification of risks, organizational preparedness, equipment planning, disaster education and training, and more advanced concepts such as disaster risk reduction, health in complex emergencies, building local disaster resiliency, psychological impact of disasters on children, and more. Contains new decision trees throughout that help guide you through the decision-making process in difficult situations. Uses an easy-to-follow, templated approach to historical perspectives, overviews of current practice including pre-incident and post-incident actions, medical treatment of casualties, and potential pitfalls.

The extraordinary ways the brain can misfire'Fascinating and compassionate' Horatio Clare The King of France ? thinking he was made of glass ? was terrified he might shatter…and he wasn't alone. After the Emperor met his end at Waterloo, an epidemic of Napoleons piled into France's asylums. Throughout the nineteenth century, dozens of middle-aged women tried to convince their physicians that they were, in fact, dead. For centuries we've dismissed delusions as something for doctors to sort out behind locked doors. But delusions are more than just bizarre quirks ? they hold the key to collective anxieties and traumas. In this groundbreaking history, Victoria Shepherd uncovers stories of delusions from medieval times to the present day and implores us to identify reason in apparent madness.

Drawing from the latest developments and approaches in Alzheimer's and dementia care, Forget Me Not has all the answers.

This edited volume is a compilation of 30 articles discussing what constitutes food for health and longevity. The aim is to provide up-to-date information, insights, and future tendencies in the ongoing scientific research about nutritional components, food habits and dietary patterns in different cultures. The health-sustaining and health-promoting effects of food are certainly founded in its overall composition of macronutrients and micronutrients. However, the consumption of these nutrients is normally in the form of raw or prepared food from the animal and plant sources. The book is divided into four parts and a conclusion, and successfully convenes the well-established information and knowledge, along with the personal views of a diversified group of researchers and academicians on the multifaceted aspects of nutrition, food and diet. The first part reviews the scientific information about proteins, carbohydrates, fats and oils, micronutrients, pro- and pre-biotics, and hormetins, along with a discussion of the evolutionary principles and constraints about what is optimal food, if any. The second part discusses various kinds of foods and food supplements with respect to their claimed benefits for general health and prevention of some diseases. The third part brings in the cultural aspects, such as what are the principles of healthy eating according to the traditional Chinese and Indian systems, what is the importance of mealing times and daily rhythms, and how different cultures have developed  different folk wisdoms for eating for health, longevity and immortality. In the part four, various approaches which are either already in practice or are still in the testing and research phases are discussed and evaluated critically, for example intermittent fasting and calorie restriction, food-based short peptides, senolytics, Ayurvedic compounds, optimal food for old people, and food for the prevention of obesity and other metabolic disorders.The overreaching aim of this book is to inform, inspire and encourage students, researchers, educators and medical health professionals thinking about food and food habits in a holistic context of our habits, cultures and patterns. Food cannot be reduced to a pill of nutritional components. Eating food is a complex human behavior culturally evolved over thousands of years. Perhaps the old adage "e;we are what we eat"e; needs to be modified to "e;we eat what we are"e;.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Passionate advocate for end-of-life care and TikTok star Hadley Vlahos shares moving stories of joy, wisdom, and redemption from her patients’ final moments in this “brilliant” (Zibby Owens, Good Morning America) memoir. “This extraordinary book helps dispel fear around death and dying—revealing it to be a natural part of our soul’s evolution.”—Laura Lynne Jackson, New York Times bestselling author of Signs and The Light Between UsTalking about death and dying is considered taboo in polite company, and even in the medical field. Our ideas about dying are confusing at best: Will our memories flash before our eyes? Regrets consume our thoughts? Does a bright light appear at the end of a tunnel? For most people, it will be a slower process, one eased with preparedness, good humor, and a bit of faith. At the forefront of changing attitudes around palliative care is hospice nurse Hadley Vlahos, who shows that end-of-life care can teach us just as much about how to live as it does about how we die. Vlahos was raised in a strict religious household, but began questioning her beliefs in high school after the sudden death of a friend. When she got pregnant at nineteen, she was shunned by her community and enrolled herself in nursing school to be able to support herself and her baby. But nursing soon became more than a job: when she focused on palliative care and hospice work, it became a calling.  In The In-Between, Vlahos recounts the most impactful experiences she’s had with the people she’s worked with—from the woman who never once questioned her faith until she was close to death, to the older man seeing visions of his late daughter, to the young patient who laments that she spent too much of her short life worrying about what others thought of her—while also sharing her own fascinating journey. Written with profound insight, humility, and respect, The In-Between is a heartrending memoir that shows how caring for others can transform a life while also offering wisdom and comfort for those dealing with loss and providing inspiration for how to live now.

Die Digitalisierung durchzieht als Megatrend auch die Dienstleistungsbranchen Gesundheit und Pflege. Informations- und Kommunikationstechnologien setzen vermehrt Impulse, Gesundheits- und Pflegeleistungen zu unterstutzen: z.B. Televisite - Telekonsultation, Monitoring - KI - Entscheidungsunterstutzungssysteme, Medical Apps, digitale Patientenakte. Haufig wird die Notwendigkeit der technischen Unterstutzung mit dem Fachkraftemangel begrundet. Die Digitalisierung hat zudem das Potenzial, das Versorgungsgeschehen von der Arbeit am Klienten bis hin zu den Verwaltungsstrukturen grundlegend zu verandern. Wie der Einsatz von digital unterlegten Technologien insbesondere im sensiblen Bereich der Altenpflege erfolgreich umgesetzt werden kann und dabei auch stets den Menschen im Blick behalt, erlautern die Autoren dieses essentials anhand von Beispielen aus den Bereichen Augmented Reality, Robotik, Sturzsensorik und Pflegedokumentation. Dabei werden sie von dem Konzept Strategische Mensch-Maschine-Partnerschaft geleitet. Die neuen Anforderungen an die Qualifikation der handelnden Akteure werden ebenso diskutiert wie Fragen technologischer Voraussetzungen.  

Hvordan ydes sygepleje af høj kvalitet til immobile patienter?At være immobil er ikke en sygdom i sig selv, men immobile patienter er i øget risiko for en lang række af sygdomme, og konsekvenserne for manglende bevægelse påvirker bl.a. hjerte, kredsløb, knogler, hud, fordøjelse og muskler. Med denne grundbog indføres læseren i den komplekse sygepleje, der skal ydes til immobile patienter, hvad enten disse er bevidstløs (total immobilitet) eller har funkionsnedsættelse (delvis immobilitet).Bogen indeholder 12 fundamentale kapitler svarende til Sundhedsstyrelsens 12 sygeplejefaglige områder. Dette betyder, at immobilitet – som et gennemgående vandmærke – bliver holdt op mod lyset af følgende hovedemner: funktionsniveau, bevægeapparat, ernæring, hud og slimhinder, kommunikation, psykosociale forhold, respiration og cirkulation, seksualitet, smerter og sanseindtryk, søvn og hvile, viden og udvikling samt udskillelser. Tilsammen danner bogens kapitler en helhedsfremstilling af immobile patienters mange udfordringer gennem konsekvent brug af cases og refleksionsspørgsmål og velvalgte illustrationer.Bogen er målrettet sygeplejestuderende, som klædes på til at kunne varetage grundlæggende sygepleje af høj kvalitet til immobile patienter, men også uddannede sygeplejersker, kliniske undervisere i primær og sekundær sektor samt andre sundhedsprofessionelle kan med fordel læse med.Fagredaktør er Ben Farid Røjgaard Nielsen
