Dementia Lab 2022: The Residue of Design

Dementia Lab 2022: The Residue of Design: Proceedings of the 6th Dementia Lab Conference, D-Lab 2022, September 20–22, 2022, Leuven, Belgium by Maarten Houben, Rens Brankaert, Niels Hendriks, Andrea Wilkinson, Kellie Morrissey
English | EPUB(True) | 2022 (2023 Edition) | 126 Pages | ISBN : 3031144651 | 41.1 MB

This book gathers the revised and selected contributions to the 6th Dementia Lab Conference, D-Lab 2022, held on September 20-22, 2022, in Leuven. It describes original and innovative research on how design can contribute to the quality of life of people with dementia, their loved ones, and caregivers. The papers highlight the value of participation within design, analyzing it at three levels: personal, product, and organizational.
The presented ideas and findings address ‘The Residue of Design’ and go beyond the initial impact of the design itself by looking at what benefits design research brings for people with dementia. The papers cover topics such as the development of creative design methods to foster participation and engagement from people with dementia, evaluation studies or critical reflections that reveal the impact of products and the built environment in dementia care, and raising awareness and countering stigma in societal views on dementia.

Digitalisierung in der Altenpflege: Analyse und Handlungsempfehlungen

Digitalisierung in der Altenpflege: Analyse und Handlungsempfehlungen by Ronald Deckert, Ingolf Rascher, Heinrich Recken
Deutsch | PDF | 2022 | 62 Pages | ISBN : 3658389729 | 0.9 MB

Die Digitalisierung durchzieht als Megatrend auch die Dienstleistungsbranchen Gesundheit und Pflege. Informations- und Kommunikationstechnologien setzen vermehrt Impulse, Gesundheits- und Pflegeleistungen zu unterstützen: z.B. Televisite - Telekonsultation, Monitoring - KI - Entscheidungsunterstützungssysteme, Medical Apps, digitale Patientenakte. Häufig wird die Notwendigkeit der technischen Unterstützung mit dem Fachkräftemangel begründet. Die Digitalisierung hat zudem das Potenzial, das Versorgungsgeschehen von der Arbeit am Klienten bis hin zu den Verwaltungsstrukturen grundlegend zu verändern.

Ventilatory Support and Oxygen Therapy in Elder, Palliative and End-of-Life Care Patients by Antonio M. Esquinas, Nicola Vargas
English | PDF | 2020 | 392 Pages | ISBN : 303026663X | 6.5 MB

This book provides readers with a comprehensive and up-to-date guide to non-invasive mechanical ventilation in palliative medicine, focusing on why and when it may be necessary. Physicians will find a practical guide to this specific context, particularly focused on pulmonary function and physiology in the elderly, and on ventilatory management in surgery and chronic stable conditions. The book provides detailed information on the rationale for invasive and non-invasive ventilation, the different modes of ventilation, indications and contraindications, prognostic factors, and outcomes. It addresses in detail the role of postoperative mechanical ventilation following various forms of surgery, and discusses key aspects of withdrawal from ventilatory support. Attention is also devoted to the use of mechanical ventilation within and beyond the ICU. The concluding part of the book focuses on important topics such as ethics, legal issues, home mechanical ventilation, drug therapy, rehabilitation and end-of-life.

Nutrition, Food and Diet in Ageing and Longevity

Nutrition, Food and Diet in Ageing and Longevity by Suresh I. S. Rattan
English | PDF,EPUB | 2021 | 643 Pages | ISBN : 3030830160 | 25.5 MB

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.
