Abstract:
Urinary incontinence (UI) is a major public health problem. It affects many institutionalised elderly people. In the literature, the phenomenon is well defined. Its frequency, risk factors, individual and social costs, as well as the different therapeutic approaches, are described. However, there are few publications on its representations, both from the point of view of the patient and that of the carers. However, the literature shows that a better understanding of the social representations of this phenomenon could be a vector for improving care. We aim at understanding the perception of UI, to model its representations and to understand and characterise the logics of action in terms of protection.
This will be a mixed-method concurrent study with a quantitative and a qualitative component. Data will be collected through 100 semistructured interviews, 8 focus groups and 10 000 surveys from 4 populations: institutionalised elderly people, caregivers, carers and individuals from the general population. The qualitative part will be analysed both manually and with ATLAS.Ti software, which will be used to centralise and organise all qualitative data collected. For the analysis of the quantitative part, a descriptive statistical analysis and a logistic regression type association will be carried out. These analyses will be enforced using R software. Then, an overlay and combination of quantitative and qualitative information for the triangulation analytical approach will be carried out. The study started in August 2021 and will continue until June 2022.
The study protocol was approved by the Descartes ethics and research committee on 1 June 2021, with the IRB number 00012021-43. The findings will be published in peer-reviewed journals and presented at national and international conferences.
This protocol was registered with the Research Registry on 12 July 2021 and is numbered researchregistry6965.
摘要:
尿失禁(UI)是主要的公共卫生问题。它影响了许多机构化的老年人。在文学中,这种现象是明确的。它的频率,危险因素,个人和社会成本,以及不同的治疗方法,被描述。然而,关于它的陈述的出版物很少,从病人和看护人的角度来看。然而,文献表明,更好地理解这种现象的社会表现可能是改善护理的载体。我们的目标是理解UI的感知,对其表示进行建模,并从保护的角度理解和表征行动逻辑。
这将是一种混合方法,同时进行定量和定性研究。数据将通过100次半结构化访谈收集,来自4个人群的8个焦点小组和10,000个调查:机构老年人,看护者,照顾者和来自普通人群的个人。定性部分将手动和ATLAS进行分析。Ti软件,这将用于集中和组织收集的所有定性数据。对于定量部分的分析,将进行描述性统计分析和逻辑回归类型关联。这些分析将使用R软件来执行。然后,将进行三角分析方法的定量和定性信息的叠加和组合。该研究于2021年8月开始,并将持续到2022年6月。
本研究方案于2021年6月1日获得笛卡尔伦理和研究委员会批准,IRB号为00012021-43。研究结果将发表在同行评审的期刊上,并在国家和国际会议上发表。
该协议于2021年7月12日在研究注册中心注册,编号为researchregistry6965。
