Повний текст джерелаBackground: Stroke is a collective term for cerebral infarction and cerebral hemorrhage. Stroke often causes lifelong detrimental effects, such as aphasia. Aphasia means a reduced ability to understand spoken/written language and/or a reduced ability to express oneself adequately. To enable a good and person-centred care for the patients, an effective communication is a prerequisite. Aim: The aim of this study is to describe the factors that influence the person-centred care and communication between the nurse and patients affected by stroke induced aphasia. Method: The study is a literature review on bachelor level. The study is based on 15 scientific articles that have been red and analyzed and where common themes have been identified. Result: The results revealed a number of strategies that promoted and hindered good communication between the nurse and people affected by stroke induced aphasia. These strategies concern seven areas: Verbal communication, Nonverbal communication, Seeing the patient as a competent and unique individual, Attention and involvement, The time aspect of communication with patients with aphasia, The importance of the surrounding environment for communication and The personnel's education and skills . Conclusion: There is no standard answer to how communication shall be achieved, each individual is unique and every situation requires a different solution. However, there are a number of aspects and methods that are important and useful when communicating with aphasic people. These are used to different degrees in health care.

Повний текст джерелаThis research focuses on the contribution of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to understanding recovery and treatment of aphasia in adults who have suffered a stroke. There are three parts. Part 1 presents the feasibility of the application of an overt, picture-naming, functional MRI (fMRI) paradigm to examine neural activity in chronic, nonfluent aphasia (four mild-moderate and one severe nonfluent/global patient). The advantages and disadvantages of an overt, object picture-naming, fMRI block-design paradigm are discussed. An overt naming fMRI design has potential as a method to provide insight into recovery from adult aphasia including plasticity of the brain after left hemisphere stroke and response to treatment. Part 2 uses the overt naming fMRI paradigm to examine changes in neural activity (neural plasticity) after a two-week series of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) treatments to improve picture naming in chronic nonfluent aphasia. An overview of rTMS and rationale for use of rTMS as a clinical treatment for aphasia is provided. Patterns of fMRI activation are examined in two patients with chronic nonfluent aphasia following a two-week series of 1 Hz rTMS treatments to suppress the right pars triangularis portion of the right hemisphere, Broca's homologue. One patient responded well, and the other did not. Differences in fMRI activation in response to the rTMS treatment for the two patients may be due to differences in the patients' lesion sites and extent of damage within each lesion site. Part 3 examines the area of the corpus callosum (CC) in 21 chronic nonfluent aphasia patients and 13 ageequivalent controls using structural MRI. Understanding brain morphology and potential atrophy of the CC in chronic stroke patients may shed light on alterations in the interhemispheric dynamics after stroke, especially patterns of brain reorganization during post-stroke language recovery. A decrease in interhemispheric connections has implications for mechanisms of language recovery and potential success with specific treatment methods. Future directions of both structural and functional neuroimaging to study language recovery in adult aphasia are discussed.

Aphasia is an impairment in the expression or comprehension of language that results from stroke, traumatic brain injury or progressive neurological disease. Approximately one million people in the United States suffer from aphasia, with the prevalence projected to increase to two million by 2020. Research has shown that speech-language therapy, the treatment for aphasia, can significantly improve people's ability to communicate. However, a major limitation in the field of aphasia rehabilitation is the lack of predictability in patients' response to therapy and the inability to tailor treatment to individuals. We hypothesize that learning represents a critical, underexplored factor in aphasia rehabilitation. Predicting whether a patient will improve following therapy may depend more upon that individual's ability to learn new information in general than upon a specific ability to relearn and master language. In this thesis I report a series of experiments that introduce a new approach that looks beyond language, proposing that the answer to developing efficacious, individually tailored therapies lies in a better understanding of the mechanisms of nonverbal learning in individuals with aphasia. We first explore learning success on a test of nonlinguistic category learning to examine whether learning differences arise among individuals with aphasia and non-aphasic controls. In Experiment 2, we probe the impact of stimulus manipulations on learning success. Experiment 3 presents an investigation into the relationship between learning score and language therapy outcomes. Finally, in Experiment 4, we examine the strategies used to perform our task in order to better understand how information is processed during probabilistic category learning. Results support the hypothesis that aphasia differentially affects language and learning networks. Instruction method and stimulus complexity were found to impact learning success and strategy use in individuals with aphasia. Furthermore, a positive correlation was found between learning scores and success with language therapy, suggesting that there is an informative relationship between learning ability and therapy outcomes. Findings draw attention to underlying processes that have not yet been the focus of research in aphasia, yet likely contribute to outcomes with therapy and present a gateway towards individualizing therapy and improving the predictability of patient outcomes.

Повний текст джерелаBackground: Almost 50 percent of all people affected by stroke get some form of speech and language disability that will have a major impact on their continued quality of life. Every year about 12 000 people in Sweden are diagnosed with aphasia, which means the lack of a linguistic function due to damage of the brain. Total absence of language is rare, usually the severity varies between forgetting and repeating words, incomprehensible speech and incorrect grammar. The nurse has a major role in the patient's rehabilitation process after a stroke. Knowledge of aphasia and how it affects the individual and their relatives are important to provide adequate care and good treatment. Aim: The purpose of the study was to based on previous research describe how aphasia after stroke affects social life of adults persons. Method: Literature study that included ten articles, of which eight were qualitative and two was quantitative. Results: The results showed that many patients with aphasia experienced difficulties in communicating with their family and felt that both they and their families needed more knowledge about communication strategies. Family members played an important role in the rehabilitation process and needed to be involved at an early stage for better rehabilitation results. The degree of strain on the relative was influenced by how they experienced the new limitations of the person suffering from aphasia and it was hardest on those living with the relative suffering from aphasia. Nurses should make families involved and give both the person with aphasia and their relatives instruments required to enable them to develop new communication strategies. Conclusion: Maintaining a good relationship with family and friends was a very important factor for the aphasic person’s well-being and these relations should be strengthened through greater knowledge of aphasia with the help of medical professionals.

Повний текст джерелаStroke is a common cause of people suffering from aphasia. Suffering from aphasia has a major impact on the mental well-being and it is common for persons with aphasia to get isolated from the rest of the world. It is important that nurses has knowlegde about how people with aphasia experience their own sitaution, since they have difficulty expressing it themselves. The aim of this study was to highlight the experience of living with aphasia as a result of a stroke. The study was conducted as a general litterature study. A systematic research was made, which generated ten articles relevant to the study. The result was presented in two categories: a changed way of living and changed social relationships. The result describes that people with aphasia valued the feeling of being independent and involved in things. They also appreciated to engage in different types of activities and having a sense of belonging together with other people suffering from aphasia. However, it was noticed that people with aphasia often experienced that other people were uncomprehending concerning their communication difficulties which caused a feeling of exclusion. Further research of the experience of living with aphasia can contribute to an improved care for people suffering from aphasia due to a stroke.

Повний текст джерелаAfasi är en sekundärskada till följd av en stroke, som innebär en nedsättning av kommunikationsförmågan. Detta sker då vissa delar av hjärnan drabbas av syrebrist, vilket leder till att celler skadas eller dör. Tillståndet kan påverka patienters vardag och detta präglas av patienters upplevelser av deras tillstånd. Negativa upplevelser kan vara frustration, nedstämdhet, ångest och depression, men även upplevelser av att omgivningen är oförstående och saknar insikt i vad afasi innebär. Negativa upplevelser kan leda till att patienter isolerar sig och att de inte fullföljer sin rehabiliteringsplan. Sjuksköterskan behöver mer kunskap angående patienters upplevelser av att leva med afasi – för att kunna förebygga psykisk ohälsa. Patienter med afasi kan dock erfara positiva upplevelser trots sitt tillstånd. Genom att acceptera sitt tillstånd, samt genom stöd från omgivning och vårdpersonal kan patienter med afasi känna tillhörighet och välbefinnande. Detta kan leda till att patienter som är drabbade av afasi upplever motivation till att fullfölja sin rehabilitering. För att effektivisera återhämtningen kan närstående bjudas in av sjuksköterskan och bli mer delaktiga i patientens kommunikativa rehabilitering, då närståendes stöd och uppmuntran är en viktig aspekt i att patienter upplever motivation till återhämtning. Patienter med afasi upplever ett sjukdomslidande till följd av att ha insjuknat i en stroke och afasi. Upplevelser av detta leder till ett själsligt lidande för patienten. Sjuksköterskans ansvar är att lindra lidande, samt att återställa och främja hälsa inom ramen för hens kompetensområde – omvårdnad. Sjuksköterskan behöver en ökad kunskap och förståelse för den psykiska påverkan som afasi kan medföra, så att hen kan uppmärksamma symtom på och förebygga psykisk ohälsa hos patienter med afasi. Det här är en litteraturstudie, med avsikt att bidra till evidensbaserad vård med grund i kvalitativ forskning. Resultatet är baserat på kvalitativ analys av åtta vetenskapliga artiklar, som beskriver patienters upplevelser av att leva med afasi.

Повний текст джерелаBakgrund: Språkstörningen afasi drabbar 12 000 personer årligen i Sverige. Afasi är en förvärvad språkstörning och orsakas av en skada i hjärnan, vanligaste orsaken är stroke. Enligt ett verktyg för att beskriva och bedöma afasi, A-FROM (Kagan et al. 2008), kan man se till fyra aspekter av afasin: afasisvårigheter, delaktighet i vardagliga situationer, språklig och kommunikativ omgivning samt personliga faktorer. Inom varje domän kan flera olika typer av logopedisk intervention och behandling genomföras. Vetenskaplig evidens stödjer effekt av logopedisk intervention men diskussion pågår då resultaten inte är entydiga. Forskning på området är inte heller entydig kring vilken typ av intervention som har mest evidens att ge effekt. Syfte: Studiens huvudsyfte är att genom granskning av de senaste årens forskning besvara vilka logopediska afasiinterventioner som stöds av evidens. Ett ytterligare syfte är att göra besök i klinisk verksamhet för att inhämta data kring hur logopeder arbetar med personer med afasi. Metod: Systematiska litteratursökningar genomfördes i sju medicinska databaser. Artiklar som uppfyllde uppsatta inklusionskriterier evidensgraderades. Vidare besöktes ett sjukhus i Svealand för auskultation på och intervjuer med legitimerade logopeder. Resultat och slutsats: Studien visade på att afasiinterventioner har varierande grad av evidens. Varje typ av intervention behandlades av endast en eller ett fåtal inkluderade artiklar som ofta hade få försöksdeltagare. Förslag på rekommendationer för kliniskt arbete kan utfärdas utifrån inkluderade studier och deras evidensgrad. Den enskilda interventionen som studerats av flest inkluderade studier (tre studier) är CIAT/CILT. Starkast stöd i evidens har träning av expressiva förmågor, främst ordmobilisering.

Повний текст джерелаTid till behandling är livsviktigt för människor som får en stroke. På olika platser i världen har man därför sett värdet i att införskaffa en specialambulans för stroke (stroke-ambulans) som har specialutrustning och specialpersonal som kan utföra intravenös behandling (trombolys). Då det är uppenbart att dess involvering i vården skulle hjälpa åtminstone en viss andel patienter används ofta ingen utvecklad metod eller analys av var och hur denna stroke-ambulans ska placeras. Genom att noggrant undersöka läget i Skåne län om hur denna placeringen kan gå till, är vårt mål att genom vår metod, som bygger på optimering av förväntade transporttider, upplysa beslutstagare om olika perspektiv man bör ta hänsyn till. Vår metod kan användas över olika geografiska områden.Vi föreslår en optimeringsmetod som utgår från två olika perspektiv: effektivitet och jämlikhet. Metoden visar att beroende på vilket perspektiv man väljer, kan den optimala placeringen för ett givet område variera kraftigt. Det är därför viktigt att beslutstagare av placering för stroke-ambulanser har tydliga och väl genomtänkta mål. Dessa mål bör även innefatta de lokala sjukhusens mål när det kommer till förbättring av behandlingstiden för strokepatienter, s.k. door-to-needle-time (DTN) då dessa i vissa fall kan göra större förbättringar än vad en införskaffning av en stroke-ambulans skulle göra.
The time to treatment is vital for people who suffer from a stroke. Therefore, in different places in the world, the value of acquiring a specially developed ambulance for a stroke (i.e., a Mobile Stroke Unit, MSU) with special equipment and specialists who can perform intravenous treatment (thrombolysis) has been identified. Since it is clear that an MSU’s involvement in health care would aid at least a certain proportion of the patients, the MSU is often purchased and placed without any developed method or analysis of where and how this MSU is to be placed. By carefully examining the situation in Skåne Municipality of how this placement could be performed, we will inform decision makers about different perspectives that should be taken into consideration, including other areas than Skåne.Our optimization method showed that depending on what perspective you are investing, efficiency or equality, the optimal placement for any given area can vary greatly. It is therefore importantthat decision-makersofMSUpurchaseshaveclearandwell-thought-outgoals.These goals should also include the goals of the local hospitals when it comes to improving the treatment time for stroke patients, door-to-needle (DTN), as the DTN may in some cases make greater improvements than a purchase of an MSU would.

Повний текст джерелаConstraint-Induced Therapy (CI) is based on the theory that constraining operationalfunctions will increase the usage and at the same time the recovery of impaired functions. Constraint-Induced Aphasia Therapy (CIAT) is a variant of CI, aimed at people with chronicaphasia. The purpose of this study was to examine whether CIAT would affect the linguisticabilities of eleven individuals with chronic aphasia. The linguistic abilities of each participant were tested before and after the therapy which consisted of thirty hours intensive trainingduring two weeks in accordance with CIAT. Abilities that were examined included namingability, informative speech, listening comprehension and everyday use of language. Measurements of the participants’ length of utterances and speech-rate were also implemented. The test results were analyzed using Wilcoxon signed ranks tests and dependent t-tests. Significant improvements were ascertained in the areas of length ofutterances, naming ability and informative speech. The conclusion of the study was that CIAT has a positive effect on individuals suffering from chronic aphasia, in regards tospeech production. It is unclear whether the method has any effect on language comprehension.
Constraint-Induced Therapy (CI) bygger på teorin att hämmande av välfungerande funktionerökar användningen och därmed återhämtningen av nedsatta funktioner. Constraint-InducedAphasia Therapy (CIAT) är en variant av CI som riktas mot personer med kronisk afasi. Syftet med föreliggande studie var att undersöka om CIAT påverkade språkförmågan för elva personer med kronisk afasi. Deltagarnas språkförmåga testades före och efter behandlingen, vilken utgjordes av trettio timmar intensiv träning under två veckor i enlighet med CIAT. Delförmågor som testades var benämningsförmåga, informativt tal, hörförståelse samt språkanvändning i vardagen. Mätningar gjordes också av deltagarnas taltempo och genomsnittliga yttrandelängd. Deltagarnas resultat från språktesten analyserades med Wilcoxon signed ranks test och beroende t-test. Signifikanta förbättringar kunde ses inomområdena yttrandelängd, benämningsförmåga samt informativt tal. Slutsatsen var att CIAT har en positiv effekt på personer med kronisk afasi vad gäller talproduktion. Det är dockoklart huruvida metoden påverkar språkförståelse.

Повний текст джерелаBakgrund: Stroke är en av de ledande orsakerna till långvariga följdsjukdomar, däribland kognitiva nedsättningar som afasi. Afasi kan påverka patientens förmåga att förstå och uttrycka sig i tal och skrift. För att uppnå god omvårdnad bör vårdpersonal och patient ha samma mål och värderingar, vilket ställer krav på kommunikationen mellan patient och vårdare. Det kan vara problematiskt för vårdpersonal då de inte alltid känner sig säkra på hur de ska närma sig dessa patienter. Syfte: Syftet med litteraturstudien var att belysa vårdpersonals upplevelser av att vårda patienter med diagnosen afasi efter stroke. Metod: Det här är en litteraturstudie där nio studier, med kvalitativ ansats, har analyserats och sammanställts. Inklusions- och exklusionskriterier har använts för att avgränsa resultatet. Alla studier har kvalitetsgranskats. Resultat: Det finns varierande upplevelser hos vårdpersonal när det kommer till att vårda patienter som diagnostiserats med afasi efter stroke. Resultatet presenteras i tre huvudkategorier; “Vårdpersonals upplevelse av tid och resurser för att ge god omvårdnad”, “Vårdpersonals metoder och hjälpmedel i omvårdnaden” och “Relationer och känslor kopplade till omvårdnaden av patienter med diagnosen afasi efter stroke”. Konklusion: Baserat på vårdpersonals upplevelser behövs mer forskning inom detta område dels för att utveckla strategier som kan hjälpa i kommunikationen och spara tid, men också för att kunna kartlägga hur vårdpersonal känner inför omvårdnaden av dessa patienter.

Повний текст джерелаZambia is undergoing epidemiological changes from communicable diseases to NCDs as a result of demographic transition and hence Stroke is an emerging NCD in the country. The process of care of stroke in Zambia as country is unknown. Exploring the process of care of stroke in Zambia, could help understand the gaps in service delivery thereby helping to create interventions to improve stroke service delivery. The purpose of this study was to determine and explore the process of care of stroke in Zambia. As there is no information regarding stroke care in Zambia, the study aimed to explore and determine the process of care and explore the conditions under which diagnosis and management of stroke is done in Zambia and are the factors influencing stroke diagnosis and management in Zambia. The study was conducted in Zambia’s five general hospitals which were selected conveniently. The study consisted of both quantitative and qualitative methods. The quantitative part consisted of stroke patients’ medical records reviews, who were admitted to general hospitals between 1st January to 3oth October 2014. A sample of 80 medical records was selected randomly from each general hospital, making the total of 400 medical records from all the hospitals. Data was collected using a checklist which was specifically design for the study after literature review and contained stroke care processes including diagnosis, medical management, rehabilitation, lifestyle management and community linkage. Analysis of quantitative data was done using Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS) version 22. The qualitative part consisted of individual in-depth interviews with a purposefully selected sample of three health workers from each hospital making 15 health workers. The in-depth interviews were based on predetermined themes including staffing levels, multidisciplinary team action, treatment guidelines, clinical capacity, planning and budgeting and technical environment. All the interviews were audio-taped, transcribed verbatim and the predetermined themes were analysed using content analysis. Ethical clearance to conduct the study was obtained from the University of the Western Cape Faculty Board Research and Ethics Committees and Senate Research Committee and ERES Converge in Zambia. Permission to conduct the study in Zambia was obtained from the Ministry of Health, Zambia. Informed consent was obtained from the health workers who took part in the study. The study found that the stroke process of care in Zambia ranged from diagnosis through to physical rehabilitation and lifestyle management. The stroke process of care was challenged in the area of diagnosis using biochemistry, haematology, CT scan, MRI and Angiography etc. The process of care in rehabilitation was challenged by lack of gadgets and space to use in rehabilitation. Community linkage, speech therapy and social welfares services were not part of the stroke process of care in Zambia as the study as established. Staff shortages, busy schedules, no treatment guidelines, poor clinical capacity, lack of resources and poor technical environment impacted negatively on the stroke process of care according to this study. Diagnosis and management of stroke was made with no treatment guidelines, poor clinical capacity and poor technical environment. The same were the factors which were influencing diagnosis and management namely staff shortages, no multidisciplinary teams due to busy schedules of health workers, lack of treatment guidelines, poor clinical capacity by health workers, lack of resources for stroke and poor technical environment. Using the Chi-square association of variables, the study showed that CT scan was associated with definitive diagnosis with the p-value of 0.000. Equally, Chi-Square test showed that Diagnosis was not associated with medical management (p value=0.058).

Повний текст джерелаBackground: Each year about 30,000 Swedes suffer a stroke and almost one third of them experience aphasia. Aphasia is a loss or impairment of the language system that occurs after a brain injury. Patients with aphasia experience this condition as a loss of their autonomy which worsens their quality of life. To care for someone affected by aphasia requires specific skills for nurse, both to find new ways to communicate, and also to be able to provide as good care as possible. Aim: The aim of this study is to describe components that affect communication with patients suffering from aphasia after a stroke from a nurse perspective. Method: The study is a literature review including eight qualitative articles published between the years 2000 - 2012. Selected articles involve communication between the nurse and patients suffering from aphasia after a stroke. As a theoretical frame, Joyce Travelbee’s theory focusing on the development of the relationship between nurse and patient is used. Results: Based on the selected articles, two main themes arose: Fundamentals for effective communication, and the Opportunities and barriers in communication. Making use of the non-verbal communication has proven to be very effective when speech is impaired. Meanwhile, adapted surroundings and enough time can make it possible to achieve effective communication with patients suffering from aphasia. Discussion: By helping patients to be involved in their care, and to make use of non-verbal communication, it is possible to reach patients with aphasia. This can result in fairer healthcare and it would also probably increase the quality of life for the individual.

Повний текст джерелаAim: To identify and describe how nursing staff communication and treatment of patients with cognitive impairment such as aphasia caused by stroke and to examine the significance of the included article’s data collection methods.Method: A descriptive literature review based on 14 articles which was published between 2000-2012 in the databases PubMed and Cinahl. A detailed inspection of the articles’ data collection methods was conducted.Result: The nurse communication and treatment had an impact on the patient’s experience of care. It emerged both opportunities and barriers that affected the communication. Lack of staff resources and competence as well as stress were factors that hindered communication. The use of verbal and non-verbal communication, good health environment, a secure, calm and humble nurse improved the possibility to achieve a good treatment and successful communication. Unstructured interviews, in-depth interviews, video recordings and questionnaires occurred in the selected articles.Conclusion: A functional relationship between the nurse and patients is a basis in nursing and improves its quality. Nurses need to have skills, self-awareness and understanding of the human behavior when meeting patients with cognitive impairment caused by stroke. Nurses ought to have a deliberate relation to their own values and attitudes in meetings and be able to anticipate both their own and patient’s behavior. The selected data collection methods give a deeper understanding of the chosen nursing substance.
