Design and Validation of a German Language Questionnaire for Measuring Alarm Fatigue in Intensive...

Alarm Fatigue

False-positive and non-actionable alarms can lead to staff desensitization ("alarm fatigue") and thus patient endangerment. With this study the investigators create a basic tool to survey alarm fatigue of intensive care staff: the first German language alarm fatigue questionnaire.

Reliability of a Endurance and a Strength Test for Shoulder Rotation

Fatigue

Introduction: Verification of the progression of individuals submitted to training programs is performed by diagnostic tests with a focus on strength and muscular endurance. Among the tools used are the elastic bands, the halter, the pulley, the digital dynamometer and, additionally, the isokinetic dynamometer, considered the gold standard of evaluation. However, there is a lack of standardization in assessments and scarcity in the exploration of some tools and some muscle groups. Observation is often restricted to a particular study design and makes comparisons difficult even with the use of the same tool. Thus, to include different clinical possibilities in the same scenario can enrich the discussion about the topic. Objective: To develop and analyze the validity and reliability of a maximal muscle strength test for the external rotator muscles of the shoulder in five tools; To develop and analyze the validity and reliability of a localized resistance test for the external rotator muscles of shoulder in three different percentages of maximum strength (60%, 70%, 80%) in four tools; To characterize by means of the physiological response the localized muscular endurance test with the load that presents with the highest reliability values in each tool. Method: The study will consist of a sample of 50 participants of both genders, and will be performed in 3 steps: (1) Validation and reliability of the maximum muscle strength test; (2) Reliability of the muscular endurance test (MET); (3) Physiological characterization of the muscular endurance test (MET). Stage 1 will be held in 3 sessions (familiarization, test and retest) in which participants will perform 5 tests of maximum strength with different tools (elastic bands, pulley, halter, digital dynamometer and isokinetic dynamometer). Stage 2, consisting of 6 sessions, will be tested and retest of a muscular endurance test with different loads (70%, 80% and 90% of maximum force) with the same devices of step 1, except the digital dynamometer. In Step 3 participants will be selected with the lowest variations between the test and retest in the variable "time" to perform the physiological characterization of the test with the different tools. In order to observe the physiological response, we will analyze the lactic anaerobic (lactate concentration), allelic anaerobic (post-exercise oxygen uptake (EPOC) and aerobic (VO 2 values) parameters). The statistical package SPSS Statistics 22.0 will be used to conduct the analyzes. Key words: Fatigue, Physical resistance, Muscle strength, Lactate.

The Associated Factors With Fatigue in Older Adults Living in a Rest Home

FatigueOlder People--Abuse of

Fatigue is an important and prevalent problem in older adults. The ratio of fatigue may rise in older adults who live in nursing homes/rest homes. In the literature, a few studies investigated the prevalence of fatigue, and there is no study explaining the associated factors. The aim of the present study is to investigate the prevalence of fatigue in rest home residents and to determine the associated variables with fatigue.

Health-related Quality of Life, Psychological Distress and Fatigue in Metastatic CRPC Patients Treated...

Castrate Resistant Prostate CancerBone Metastases

The aim of the current prospective multicenter study is to evaluate cancer-specific and bone metastases related HR-QoL, psychological distress and fatigue in mCRPC patients before, during and after treatment with radium-223 in daily practice. Furthermore, the investigators aim to determine patient groups with identical health-related quality of life patterns over time, in order to identify variables related to health-related quality of life deterioration during the course of treatment, as patients with health-related quality of life deterioration may need specific attention to preserve health-related quality of life.
