Research Project on the Risk of Discomfort, Pain, Alteration of Skin Condition in Bedpan Use by Patients and Caregivers

NCT06332495 · Status: RECRUITING · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 300

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The hypothesis is that the current bedpan is not adapted to the diversity of patients encountered. It is necessary to collect the opinions of patients themselves on the current pool in different departments in order to validate our hypothesis.

The objective is to evaluate pain in patients with reduced or very reduced mobility caused by the bedpan currently used in current practice through an observational study.

Conditions

  • Nurse-Patient Relations

Interventions

OTHER

Questioning the patient during hygiene care

The study examines how patients and caregivers feel when using the bedpan. Over the course of a day, collecting all this information would take just under 7 minutes. Over the duration of patient participation (2 days), we estimate that it would take a total of 15 minutes per patient to collect this information. The objectives are focused on pain and discomfort, and on the alteration of the (patient's) skin condition through objective observation of redness or stage I pressure sores by the caregiver.
