    Media audio-visual merupakan salah satu jenis media yang dihadirkan oleh pesatnya perkembangan teknologi multimedia dalam penyebaran iklan dan informasi. Dalam penyampaian informasi dan promosi paket perawatan anti aging kepada pelanggan dan calon pelanggan dapat menggunakan salah satu teknik penyajian visual yaitu perpaduan teknik live shoot dengan motion graphic. Klinik Kecantikan Leny Skincare bertempat di Ruko Citra Raya blok K1 no. 18-19R, Citra Raya, Kabupaten Tangerang. Media promosi cetak seperti spanduk, poster, dan pamfllet masih memiliki pasar yang terbatas, strategi promosi saat ini kurang menarik dan beragam. Ada perbedaan mencolok antara setiap perawatan, dengan hanya 33 kunjungan yang menerima perawatan anti aging, terlihat dari grafik yang menunjukkan jumlah rata-rata pengunjung selama tiga bulan. Menyikapi hal tersebut, harus ada upaya untuk mendongkrak antusiasme pelanggan terhadap paket perawatan anti aging. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah pengumpulan data, analisis SWOT, perancangan media (Adobe Illustrator CC, Adobe After Effect CC, Adobe Premiere Pro CC) dan Konsep Produksi Media (KPM). Diharapkan dengan adanya penelitian tersebut dapat menyelesaikan dan mendongkrak antusias pelanggan terhadap paket anti aging

    Violence against Women a Case Study in Uznova- Albania

    Get PDF
    This paper describes the violence against women in a zone named “Uznove” in Albania, Berat. Such a study has always been needed to the Albanian society because, as they say, a world which is not it for women is not it for children either. For this study a simple survey was made and asked to 50% of the population. The sampling was randomly made and the survey happened in the end of 2014. All the 50 participants vulnerably decided to take the survey and was made sure that the illing of it was made under no pressure. By the conducted research we notice that violence against women can still be considered on a dangerous level. By the research we see that the role of woman in Albanian society after the communism period did not have any big change from the role they had during the communism period. All these disparities need to be solved and as a solution education seems to be a good start as it provides the right path towards solving these disparities and diminishing violence against women. Also, another point and the main one is religion. It provides a pure example how to respect even the ones who are naturally weaker than man. The age of women range from 35-50 years old

    Pain, agitation, and behavioural problems in people with dementia admitted to general hospital wards

    Pain is underdetected and undertreated in people with dementia. We aimed to investigate the prevalence of pain in people with dementia admitted to general hospitals and explore the association between pain and behavioural and psychiatric symptoms of dementia (BPSD). We conducted a longitudinal cohort study of 230 people, aged above 70, with dementia and unplanned medical admissions to 2 UK hospitals. Participants were assessed at baseline and every 4 days for self-reported pain (yes/no question and FACES scale) and observed pain (Pain Assessment in Advanced Dementia scale [PAINAD]) at movement and at rest, for agitation (Cohen–Mansfield Agitating Inventory [CMAI]) and BPSD (Behavioural Pathology in Alzheimer Disease Scale [BEHAVE-AD]). On admission, 27% of participants self-reported pain rising to 39% on at least 1 occasion during admission. Half of them were able to complete the FACES scale, this proportion decreasing with more severe dementia. Using the PAINAD, 19% had pain at rest and 57% had pain on movement on at least 1 occasion (in 16%, this was persistent throughout the admission). In controlled analyses, pain was not associated with CMAI scores but was strongly associated with total BEHAVE-AD scores, both when pain was assessed on movement (b 5 0.20, 95% confidence interval [CI] 5 0.07- 0.32, P 5 0.002) and at rest (b 5 0.41, 95% CI 5 0.14-0.69, P 5 0.003). The association was the strongest for aggression and anxiety. Pain was common in people with dementia admitted to the acute hospital and associated with BPSD. Improved pain management may reduce distressing behaviours and improve the quality of hospital care for people with dementia

    Study Protocol: The Behaviour and Pain in Dementia Study (BePAID)

    <p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>People with dementia admitted to the acute hospital often receive poor quality care particularly with regards to management of behavioural and psychiatric symptoms of dementia (BPSD) and of pain. There have been no UK studies on the prevalence and type of pain or BPSD in people with dementia in this setting, or on how these may impact on patients, carers, staff and costs of care.</p> <p>Methods/Design</p> <p>We shall recruit older people with dementia who have unplanned acute medical admissions and measure the prevalence of BPSD using the Behave-AD (Behaviour in Alzheimer's Disease) and the CMAI (Cohen Mansfield Agitation Inventory). Pain prevalence and severity will be assessed by the PAINAD (Pain Assessment in Advanced Dementia) and the FACES pain scale. We will then analyse how these impact on a variety of outcomes and test the hypothesis that poor management of pain is associated with worsening of BPSD.</p> <p>Discussion</p> <p>By demonstrating the costs of BPSD to individuals with dementia and the health service this study will provide important evidence to drive improvements in care. We can then develop effective training for acute hospital staff and alternative treatment strategies for BPSD in this setting.</p

    Pain assessment for people with dementia: a systematic review of systematic reviews of pain assessment tools.

    BACKGROUND: There is evidence of under-detection and poor management of pain in patients with dementia, in both long-term and acute care. Accurate assessment of pain in people with dementia is challenging and pain assessment tools have received considerable attention over the years, with an increasing number of tools made available. Systematic reviews on the evidence of their validity and utility mostly compare different sets of tools. This review of systematic reviews analyses and summarises evidence concerning the psychometric properties and clinical utility of pain assessment tools in adults with dementia or cognitive impairment. METHODS: We searched for systematic reviews of pain assessment tools providing evidence of reliability, validity and clinical utility. Two reviewers independently assessed each review and extracted data from them, with a third reviewer mediating when consensus was not reached. Analysis of the data was carried out collaboratively. The reviews were synthesised using a narrative synthesis approach. RESULTS: We retrieved 441 potentially eligible reviews, 23 met the criteria for inclusion and 8 provided data for extraction. Each review evaluated between 8 and 13 tools, in aggregate providing evidence on a total of 28 tools. The quality of the reviews varied and the reporting often lacked sufficient methodological detail for quality assessment. The 28 tools appear to have been studied in a variety of settings and with varied types of patients. The reviews identified several methodological limitations across the original studies. The lack of a 'gold standard' significantly hinders the evaluation of tools' validity. Most importantly, the samples were small providing limited evidence for use of any of the tools across settings or populations. CONCLUSIONS: There are a considerable number of pain assessment tools available for use with the elderly cognitive impaired population. However there is limited evidence about their reliability, validity and clinical utility. On the basis of this review no one tool can be recommended given the existing evidence
