assessments inpatient care

shared by alliejpeugh on 14 Nov 16 - No Cached

alliejpeugh on 14 Nov 16

This assessment is based on observation of a patient in a more natural environment/setting and looks at if they initiate expected activities such as, turning off appliances, closing doors when they leave, doing dishes, prepping dinner.. etc within 15 min of expected time. This is looked at and recorded each day of the week. In acute care this is just not very applicable, as we don't watch patients all day, every day of the week and the Vets are in an unfamiliar setting where they likely won't initiate such activities even if cognition is unimpaired. Even the activities that do occur in the hospital setting, such as eating lunch, don't apply very well because the score is acquired by adding up how they did each day of the week and it is not very practical to see a patient every day for the entirety of their lunch for a week straight. This may be a nice assessment for the nursing home to use in some instances.

This study aimed to determine the course of anxiety, depression, and perceptions of control, along with the influence of perception of control in patients undergoing CABG before surgery and after surgery, along with two weeks post discharge. The study included 231 participants having CABG surgery were conveniently recruited from two hospitals in Sydney, Australia. Patients took a series of questionnaires before surgery, after surgery, and two weeks post discharge. The questionnaires asked questions on anxiety and depression and were measured by the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) and the Control Attitudes Scale. Limitations of the study included the use of a convenient sample and loss of participants for the second and third interview. The results showed perceptions of control were moderate before surgery and improved once the surgery was completed, and again in early recovery in the second week after patients had gone home. Perceptions of control are important because they had a positive influence on concurrent anxiety and depression at all times.

This study was done in 2004 and looks at the development of clinical reasoning skills of undergrad OT students. The student participants took part in a 5-week intensive problem-based learning course before going into fieldwork. (This study was completed when a bachelors degree was required for an OT degree) The results concluded that the intensive problem-based learning course in the OT curriculum can promote development of students clinical reasoning skills.
