ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Dementia is one of the pathologies that has increased the most among the older population (mainly Alzheimer's disease), and it has a direct impact on the quality of life (QoL), cognitive performance, and health of these patients. Family functionality can play a role in this QoL if these patients are not institutionalized. OBJECTIVE: To analyze the role of family function in the QoL and health perception of non-institutionalized dementia patients, as well as related variables such as anxiety, depression, optimism, or pessimism. METHODS: Cross-sectional study with a sample of 54 patients diagnosed with some type of dementia, non-institutionalized, or in outpatient care, from different centers in the province of Valencia (Spain). The EQ-5D, MMSE, Apgar Family or general health, and Goldberg anxiety and depression questionnaires were utilized. RESULTS: The correlation of the Apgar Family with the General Health Questionnaire-new onset problems variable (GHQ) and Chronicity and General Health Questionnaire-chronic problems (CGHQ) of the Goldberg Quality of Life questionnaire was statistically significant and negative (GHQ r = -0.310; p = 0.034. CGHQ r = -0.363; p = 0.012); as well as between Apgar Family and Anxiety-Depression (r = -0.341; p = 0.020). The correlation of the Apgar Family with the Life Orientation Test-Pessimism variable (LOT) was statistically significant and negative (r = -0.270; p = 0.061). Finally, severe dysfunction of Apgar Family has a negative correlation with self-perception of health (p = 0.036 B = -16.589) determined by the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). CONCLUSION: Family functionality directly influences anxiety, depression, optimism, and pessimism. This could explain why family function is related to the QoL of patients and their self-perception of health.

ABSTRACT

Objetivo: Desarrollo y evaluación de un instrumento capaz de medir la relevancia percibida del trabajo con cartas para el diálogo acerca de las preferencias en el proceso final de la vida.Método: Se ha construido la escala de la pertinencia percibida acerca del trabajo con cartas para las preferencias al final de la vida la cual ha sido evaluada mediante juicio de expertos y análisis factorial confirmatorio en una muestra de 320 estudiantes de Grado en Enfermería y 68 personas mayores de 40 años.Resultado: Se llega a una solución de 21 ítems, los cuales se ajustan en las 4 dimensiones teórica propuestas de manera óptima (CFI: 0,912; 0,842; 0,816; 0,995; RMSA: 0,170; 0,198; 0,187; 0,076).Conclusiones: La escala de medición de la pertinencia del trabajo con cartas es fiable y válida. Está compuesta por 4 dimensiones: Pertinencia percibida para la formación; Pertinencia percibida para el autoconocimiento; Pertinencia percibida para la aplicación en pacientes; e Iatrogenia percibida del instrumento).

Objective: Development and evaluation of an instrument capable of measuring the perceived relevance of working with cards for the dialogue about preferences at the end stages of life.Method: A scale to measure the perceived relevance of working with cards for the conversation about preferences at the end of life was developed and evaluated through expert judgment and confirmatory factor analysis in a sample of 320 nursing degree students and 68 people older than 40 years.Result: A solution with 21 items was reached, which optimally fitted the four proposed theoretical dimensions (CFI: 0.912; 0.842; 0.816; 0.995; RMSA: 0.170; 0.198; 0.187; 0.076).Conclusions: The scale for measuring the relevance of working with cards is reliable and valid. It is made up of four dimensions: Perceived relevance for training; Perceived relevance for self-knowledge; Perceived relevance for application in patients; and Perceived iatrogenicity of the instrument).

ABSTRACT

Se presentan diferentes métodos empleados para conocer las cargas de trabajo en enfermería: método dependencia/actividad; métodos cronometrados; enfermeras por cama ocupada; juicio o criterio profesional; método de regresión. Posteriormente se comenta el tratamiento de la variable tiempo en los sistemas de medición de cargas de trabajo. Se concluye que sólo el profesional de enfermería puede generar los cambios necesarios (AU)

ABSTRACT

Estamos en un momento de cambio que afecta a los sistemas sanitarios y a la enfermería. En este ámbito se han utilizado distintos sistemas de provisión de plantillas que no han terminado de resolver los problemas y continúan creando situaciones de desmotivación y frustración entre los profesionales de enfermería así como de calidad de atención a los pacientes. Todos estos sistemas tienen diferentes problemas de aplicación, pero el problema más importante es que no incluyen la visión global y de proceso, obviando un elemento muy importante como es la influencia de lo que llamaríamos el transcurrir de los acontecimientos en la dinámica del trabajo de enfermería (AU)
