Nursing diagnosis "impaired walking" in elderly patients: integrative literature review

The impaired walking nursing diagnosis has been included in NANDA International classification taxonomy in 1998, and this review aims to identify the defining characteristics and related factors in elderly patients in recent literature. Integrative literature review based on the following guiding question: Are there more defining characteristics and factors related to the nursing diagnosis impaired walking than those included in NANDA International classification taxonomy in elderly patients? Search conducted in 2007-2013 on international and Portuguese databases. Sample composed of 15 papers. Among the 6 defining characteristics classified at NANDA International, 3 were identified in the search results, but 13 were not included in the classification. Regarding the 14 related factors that are classified, 9 were identified in the sample and 12 were not included in the NANDA International taxonomy. This review allowed the identification of new elements not included in NANDA International Taxonomy and may contribute to the development of taxonomy and nursing knowledge.

OBJECTIVE: this article describes the assessment of the spiritual wellbeing of elderly patients with cancer submitted to chemotherapy and possible predictive factors of the spiritual distress diagnosis. METHODOLOGY: this is a methodological study for clinical validation of a nursing diagnosis, using interviews to assist in completing the form. RESULTS: 45 elderly patients participated in this study, Catholics, mostly female, diagnosed with breast cancer, average age of 70.3 years. The prevalence of spiritual distress was of 42%; 24.4% of the elderly patients were under anti-depressant medication. A significant association was noted between spiritual distress, anti-depressant medication and level of education; an increase (not significant) was acknowledged at the start of the treatment. CONCLUSION: these results emphasize the relevance of clarifying this diagnosis and the responsibility of nurses to provide spiritual care to patients. Interventions should be planned appropriately every time a nursing diagnosis is identified as a complex answer and for which pharmacological treatment is not sufficient.

Introducción: La mayor parte de los diagnósticos de enfermería sobre los potenciales donantes de órganos están relacionados a alteraciones fisiológicas. Es común que estos pacientes presenten todos los diagnósticos citados para esta población. Pero todavía no existe en NANDA International un diagnóstico único que sea capaz de plantear este severo caso. Objetivo: Identificar en la literatura las posibles características definitorias para la propuesta de diagnóstico Síndrome del equilibrio fisiológico deteriorado en pacientes con muerte encefálica y potenciales donantes de órganos. Método: Revisión integrativa de la literatura con estudios publicados entre el 1997 y el 2017 en las bases de datos Web of Science, LILACS y PubMed.Resultados: La muestra constó de 37 artículos, de los cuales se identificó 44 posibles características distintas para el diagnóstico de enfermería en desarrollo. Se dividieron las características definitorias en cinco grupos principales: alteraciones endocrino-metabólicas; alteraciones hemodinámicas y/o cardiovasculares; alteraciones respiratorias; alteraciones nutricionales y alteraciones de la coagulación, inflamatorias e/o inmunológicas. Conclusiones: El desarrollo de este diagnóstico puede colaborar con la calificación de la taxonomía de NANDA Internacional, así como ampliar el conocimiento de la enfermería en el campo de mantenimiento del posible donante de órganos, lo que contribuye a la enseñanza e investigación. El empleo de este diagnóstico puede mejorar la sistematización del cuidado, auxilia en el mantenimiento del potencial donante y, en consecuencia, mejora la viabilidad de órganos para trasplante. Introduction: Most of nursing diagnoses for potential organ donors is related to physiological changes. These patients often have all diagnoses cited for this population. However, NANDA International does not have a diagnosis to address this acute condition. Objective: To identify possible defining characteristics for the diagnosis of impaired physiological equilibrium syndrome for brain death patients and for potential organ donors in the literature. Method: Integrative literature review including articles published between 1997 and 2017 in the databases Web of Science, LILACS and PubMed.Results: The sample consisted of 37 articles identifying 44 possible defining characteristics for the nursing diagnosis to be developed. The defining characteristics were divided into five major groups of changes: endocrine-metabolic changes, hemodynamic and/or cardiovascular changes, ventilatory changes, nutritional changes, coagulation changes, inflammatory and/ or immune changes.Conclusions: Developing this diagnosis can collaborate to the taxonomy of NANDA International, as well as to extend the nursing knowledge of the area of maintenance of the potential organ donor, contributing to teaching and research. The practical use of this diagnosis purpose can provide a better systematization of care, enabling the proper maintenance of the potential organ donor and consequently improving the viability of organs for transplantation.

Background: Research shows that there is a high prevalence of suicide among nurses. Despite this, it has been 15 years since the last literature review on the subject was published. Aim: The aim of this article is to review the knowledge currently available on the risk of suicide among nurses and on contributory risk factors. Method: A search was conducted in electronic databases using keywords related to prevalence and risk factors of suicide among nurses. The abstracts were analyzed by reviewers according to selection criteria. Selected articles were submitted to a full-text review and their key elements were summarized. Results: Only nine articles were eligible for inclusion in this review. The results of this literature review highlight both the troubling high prevalence of suicide among nurses as well as the persistent lack of studies that examine this issue. Conclusion: Considering that the effects of several factors related to nurses' work and work settings are associated with high stress, distress, or psychiatric problems, we highlight the relevance of investigating work-related factors associated with nurses' risk of suicide. Several avenues for future studies are discussed as well as possible research methods.

Abstract Background Heterotopic ossification (HO) is noted most frequently in periarticular muscles and has not yet been reported in the cruciate ligaments of the knee. We present a rare case of symptomatic ossification of the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL). Case presentation A 59-year-old woman had a 2-year history of knee pain that was getting worse during knee motion and had restricted knee motion for 1 year. X-rays could not show the lesion clearly. Multi-planar computed tomography demonstrated ossification within the PCL with mild osteoarthritic changes and excluded any other intra-articular pathology. The patient underwent arthroscopic debridement and then experienced immediate relief of pain and complete recovery of range of motion. Conclusion This is the first report of HO in the PCL as a possible cause of knee pain and restricted knee motion. On the basis of literature review, this case elaborates the difference between HO and calcification in the ligaments, the related factors inducing HO and the undefined pathogenesis, and favorable prognosis after adequate treatment.

The Way

The existing multisensory literature suggests that the combination of the different human senses in a controlled fashion during food/drink experiences can provide more enjoyment to consumers. The present research reviews recent literature relating multisensory perception with wine experiences, focusing on the interaction of the five basic senses (taste, smell, vision, touch, and sound). This is mostly being assessed from a perceptual and behavioral consumer perspective. Here, the authors report different ways in which such interactions across these senses can affect the way a wine is experienced, prior to, during, and even after tasting. The authors finish this literature review by providing some insights in the context of wine and food pairing, while also generally reflecting on potential future work. These insights may be inspirational for a diverse group of organizations working with wine. Based on such multisensory approaches, it may be possible to bring unforeseen sensations to the different wine experiences, while at the same time stressing particular sensory and/or emotional attributes.

In recent years, impressive progress has been made in digital imaging and in particular in three dimensional visualisation and analysis of objects. This paper reviews the most recent literature on three dimensional imaging with a special attention to particulate systems analysis. After an introduction recalling some important concepts in spatial sampling and digital imaging, the paper reviews a series of techniques with a clear distinction between the surfometric and volumetric principles. The literature review is as broad as possible covering materials science as well as biology while keeping an eye on emerging technologies in optics and physics. The paper should be of interest to any scientist trying to picture particles in 3D with the best possible resolution for accurate size and shape estimation. Though techniques are adequate for nanoscopic and microscopic particles, no special size limit has been considered while compiling the review.
