Seeking consensus on dilemmas related to euthanasia in dementia based on an advance directive: A Delphi study from a medical, ethical and legal perspective
Euthanasia in dementia based on advance euthanasia directives (AEDs) is possible within the Dutch Euthanasia law. Yet, physicians struggle with the responsibility of interpreting the law’s open norms in cases of advanced dementia, which includes the fulfilment of the due care criteria. This Delphi study aims to analyse arguments and seek consensus from medical, ethical and legal perspectives on ethical dilemmas in such cases. Thirty participants,…
Improving goal setting and achieving in geriatric rehabilitation through participatory action research
Introduction/background summary: In geriatric rehabilitation a means to achieve client centered care is to work collaboratively on setting and achieving goals. This might enhance self-efficacy, motivation, adherence to rehabilitation and goal-specific performance. In this participatory action research (PAR) project, a nursing team investigated for itself how to improve goal setting and achieving. Who is it for? The actions the nursing team chose …
National survey evaluating patient and organisational characteristics of short-term residential care facilities in the Netherlands
Background: Short-term residential Care (STRC) is a recent, bed-based care concept for older adults aimed to avoid nursing home admission in the Netherlands. Objective: To describe characteristics of patients admitted to STRC and the main organizational differences between facilities. Methods: Patient characteristics were identified using a national STRC database (2018 and 2019). Organizational comparisons of STRC facilities were collected throug…
The Association Between Possible Stressors and Mood Outcomes in Older Residents of Long-Term Care Facilities
Major life stressor and conflict emerged as important stressors for resilience research within the psychological domain in LTCF residents. Further (longitudinal) research is necessary to determine the directionality and relevance of the strong association of conflict with mood for LTCF practice
The Disability Paradox? Trajectories of Well-Being in Older Adults With Functional Decline
Objectives: The 'disability paradox' (DP) suggests that most older adults maintain subjective well-being (SWB) despite functional decline. However, this may depend the SWB component: positive affect (PA), negative/depressed affect (NA/DA) or life satisfaction (LS). We assessed trajectories of these components in older adults with substantial functional decline. Methods: Data originated from the Longitudinal Aging Study Amsterdam ( N = 2545) obser…
Between Choice, Necessity, and Comfort: Deciding on Tube Feeding in the Acute Phase After a Severe Stroke
This is an ethnographic study of decision-making concerning tube feeding in the acute phase after a severe stroke. It is based on 6 months of ethnographic research in three stroke units in the Netherlands, where the decision-making on life-sustaining treatment was studied in 16 cases of severe stroke patients. Data were collected through participant observation and interviews. For this article, the analysis was narrowed down to the decision wheth…
Development of a Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS®) short form for measuring physical function in geriatric rehabilitation patients
The PROMIS-PF-GR was developed from the PROMIS-PF and has good content validity, structural validity, measurement invariance, and internal consistency in Dutch geriatric rehabilitation patients. We recommend to confirm the content validity of the PROMIS-PF-GR in other countries
Quebec physicians’ perspectives on medical aid in dying for incompetent patients with dementia
