In this study, we assessed the information sharing practices between pharmacists and multidisciplinary healthcare professionals such as doctors, care managers, nurses, others. We evaluated effectiveness of "home medical management guidance reports" "home-visit drug prepared by pharmacists. also identified factors that could enhance collaborative practices. To improve reports, introduced a new report form with an overview column reply column. used SOAP format in reports. found response rate...
Abstract Many hemodialysis (HD) patients cannot perform self‐administered exercise training for their muscle wasting, weakness, and sarcopenia. Electrical stimulation (EMS) has the advantages of easy application, minimal risks these patients. This study aimed to evaluate effects intradialytic EMS. was a prospective, open‐label, randomized controlled trial. Twenty‐nine HD were randomly assigned either EMS group or control (no training) group, 13 in each eventually analyzed. The received over...
Although aortic calcification has a significant negative impact on prognosis in patients hemodialysis (HD), risk factors for progression remain unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between malnutrition and HD. Between April 2015 October 2016, we treated 232 Of those, retrospectively evaluated data from 184 who had regular blood tests computed tomography (CT) scans. abdominal index (ACI) quantitatively measured by CT. Nutritional status using Geriatric Risk Index...
Backgrounds Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) can be associated with vascular calcification in patients undergoing dialysis through hypomagnesemia. However, only few studies have demonstrated the influence of PPIs on maintenance hemodialysis (HD). This study aimed to investigate whether use accelerates HD. Materials and methods We retrospectively evaluated 200 HD who underwent regular blood tests computed tomography (CT) between 2016 2017. The abdominal aortic index (ACI) was measured using CT....
To examine the predictive ability of memory deterioration and grip strength for disability progression among those who utilized home-help service.We prospectively followed a cohort community-dwelling older people were aged 65 years or older, certified support level 1-2 care service users provided by Consumers' Cooperatives in Aichi Kanagawa prefecture. Memory capability, strength, chronic conditions other indices surveyed at baseline. Disability was defined as being 3 higher,...
The efficacy and safety of zinc acetate hydrate (ZAH) for supplementation in patients on maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) remains unknown. In this prospective, single-center, open-label, parallel-group trial MHD with serum level <70 μg/dL, we compared ZAH (zinc; 50 mg/day) polaprezinc (PPZ; zinc; 34 beyond 6-month administration a 1:1 randomization manner. PPZ groups had 44 47 patients, respectively. At 3 months, the change rate levels group was significantly higher than that group. Three...
Purpose. Muscular co-contraction resulted in corrected elbow and shoulder joint stiffness; however, this correction neither ameliorated endpoint oscillation nor assisted the execution of smooth two-joint arm movements. We hypothesised that reacquisition movements became synonymous with restoration time-domain reciprocal electromyographic (EMG) activities biarticular muscles. The purpose study was to investigate whether or not restored EMG muscles reflected improved motor performance patients...
The effects of interferon-alpha A/D (IFN) therapy in combination with various immunosuppressants were investigated a murine model viral myocarditis. Viral infection is an important cause morbidity immunocompromised hosts and transplant recipients. Human IFN reduces replication, reducing the virus-induced myocardial destruction. Groups consisting 25 C3H/He mice received i.p. injections prednisolone, azathioprine, 15-deoxyspergualin, cyclosporine or tacrolimus (FK506), for 16 days beginning 2...
In 2015, Japan's Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare released a report on the need for pharmacies to support public health, although details such service was left each pharmacy. Consequently, pharmacists had determine nature services. We considered services that could offer improve people's lifestyles. This study tests at prepared lifestyle self-review test. From September 2015 February 2016, interviewed members community using test, 50 in Aichi prefecture, Japan, set goals improvement....
The hemodynamic effects of nifedipine were studied in nine patients with acute or chronic renal failure undergoing hemodialysis. Arterial blood pressure was lowered within 15 minutes oral administration 10 mg. Mean arterial and total systemic peripheral resistance significantly decreased, whereas cardiac index heart rate revealed slight but statistically insignificant changes. Changes pulmonary artery diastolic mean right atrial which closely related to preload not significant. However, the...
While the world's population is growing older, healthy life expectancy not increasing. The Japanese Orthopedic Association proposed concept of 'locomotive syndrome,' manifested as a decline in mobility functions, and introduced short test battery for assessing risk this syndrome. includes 'stand-up test,' 'two-step '25-question Geriatric Locomotive Function Scale' (25-question GLFS). purpose locomotion training to improve sustain standing gait functions. However, place where can be provided...
Pharmacy school students were trained in a program simulating medication administration and giving adherence instructions. Following the training, educational effects evaluated. Students separated into two groups. One group of played role pharmacists instructed simulated patients on adherence. Another receiving drug therapy; they by playing pharmacists. The evaluated using questionnaire. scores for "recognition factors that influence adherence" tended to increase after simulation, increased...
Antiphasic electromyographic (EMG) activities between biarticular arm muscles are indispensable for smooth performance. In the case of two-joint movement in a planar horizontal plane, elbow and shoulder joint movements were achieved by biceps brachii (BB) triceps (TB). To our knowledge, however, no conclusions have been reached concerning antiphasic EMG during stroke patients effects training paretic upper limbs. The objective this study was to investigate whether or not with BB TB restored...
Awareness reform aims to enable survival in an aging society, and ultimately, improve healthcare. An ideal way achieve this is by implementing Advance directive (Ad) Care Planning (ACP), which do not usually include postmortem events. This study create opportunities for Ad ACP the period as a trigger awareness reform.We conducted Ad/ACP enlightenment lecture, questionnaire survey pre- post-lecture elderly old New Town, known its society. The comprised 38 multiple-choice questions covering 6...
Abstract: Because of a desire to provide the most suitable treatment for hemodialysis patients, psychological, physical and social problems influencing psychiatric conditions patients were studied. One hundred inpatients compared in each group divided by their characteristics, i.e. age, presence family problems, occupation, complications character traits. Psychiatric favorable between 3 12 months after introduction hemodialysis, whereas other terms depression was noticed more than half...
