Gaia, age 72, motor disability: improving independence at home
Editorial data: Portale SIVA Fondazione Don Carlo Gnocchi Onlus
Abstract: Gaia's severe impairment of both vital and motor functions, the cognitive ones excluded, was caused by an acute cerebral vascular accident. This experience deals with the patient's home reintegration and home care, aimed to assure her a good quality of life within her family. It is extremely important searching for a solution together with Gaia's family, that will take care of her in the daily life. Besides, a solution must be found out shortly because of the forthcoming discharge of the patient. The global evaluation of the domestic environment, the provision of the early assistive devices and Gaia's family training are only the first step in her life reorganization process, that will be extended, checked and improved according to the future needs.

Abstract: (text automatically translated from Italian) Gaia is a old woman, hit from an acute vascular event with serious impairment of not cognitive the vital and motor functions tu. In this thesis the organization will be dealt with of at domicile re-enters of Gaia and its finalized attendance to inside guarantee them one good quality of life of its family. ***E' be fundamental to search in every studied solution of the agreement points with the familiar ones that would have managed Gaia between them walls domestic servants. The structuring of the address, initially lacking in whichever assistive device, will have to be adapted to the requirements of Gaia and the familiar ones that will be taken care then of its attendance. Moreover every thing will have to be realized in limited times, given to the imminent passage ***dall' the hospital to the address without intermediate periods of hospital admission in other which protected structures. The supply of the first assistive devices and the training of the familiar ones that assist it to the use of the same ones, beyond to a total assesment of the environment, are alone the first passage of a life project that then will go widened, see again and corrected in relation to the necessities of the moment and the clinical passed one. Therefore the assistive devices thought indispensable for I re-enter at domicile will be the height-adjustable orthopedic bed to two hinges, the antidecubitus mattress to air, the exhaust fan and the pump for parenteral nutrition (supplied beginning right now ***dal the ***infermieristico service) and still the hoist electrical worker with fastening fixed to the wall. Moreover, in the times immediately succeeded you to I re-enter at domicile, will be necessary ***to procurare one postural wheelchair with adequate antidecubitus pillow.

Gli ausili per la prevenzione delle lesioni da pressione in posizione sdraiata
Editorial data: Tesi Corso di Perfezionamento "Tecnologie per l'Autonomia". Università Cattolica e Fondazione Don Gnocchi, a.a. 2006-2007
Abstract: (text automatically translated from Italian) The attempt of this work is that one to face a argument a lot known, like that one of the lesions from pressure, pointing out in synthetic way the anatomo-physiological aspects and stopping themselves on the mechanisms that can take part in a prevention program. Such program must preview uses it of an associated antidecubitus surface to a personalized positioning, to obtain and to maintain in the time with it I use of pillows and supports that allow one better distribution of the pressures. In order to arrive more to an analysis deepened than what they are the assistive devices antidecubitus, understandings like all those superficial ones in a position to cancelling or reducing the pressure of the person who is placed over, and that depending on the their characteristics reduce the cut forces, of friction and the maceration. A classification of superficial the antidecubitus one will be made based on their effectiveness of prevention, using the ***Braden scale for the assesment of the risk, proposing 3 levels of intensity: lowland, average and elevated, in order to facilitating I depending on the use it of the assistive device more adequate the risk factors and of the presence or less than a lesion from pressure, of the zone in which it is present and of the conditions it generates them of the customer. ***Target. The present didactic unit is addressed to operating the sanitary ones, nurses, ***fisioterapisti, operating associate sanitary, etc, that they take part in the program of prevention of one person to risk to develop one lesion from pressure. Didactic objectives. To the term of this lesson the students must have acquired the ability to know to estimate the risk factors to develop to a lesion from pressure, using the compilation of the ***Braden card, for being able to put in action a program of positioning, associated to the choice of the antidecubitus surface more adequate.
