“…Once this "iatrogenic cascade" has begun, the elderly end up being hospitalized for longer, not for the underlying disease, but for the consequences of inadequate care. 26 The findings presented in this study point to the specific needs of hospitalized AD patients and their caregivers. Most elderly people have different needs compared to other groups, because their organic condition makes them more susceptible to any episode of illness, especially elderly people who already have a chronic-degenerative disease, such as AD.…”

A satisfação refletida por quem recebe o cuidado permite monitorar os resultados alcançados e propor mudanças para melhorias no atendimento a partir de seus valores e expectativas 11,12 . Em virtude disso, é fundamental que os profissionais de saúde reconheçam que a satisfação do usuário é um resultado mensurável da qualidade dos cuidados de saúde e deve ser incorporada à avaliação dos serviços de saúde 13 .…”

“…Em investigação com o objetivo de caracterizar eventos adversos em clínica cirúrgica de um hospital universitário, identificou-se que as quedas representaram 18,56% das ocorrências identificadas (5) . Em outra pesquisa, realizada com pacientes idosos hospitalizados, ficou demonstrado esse evento em 7,7% dessa população (6) . Dada a magnitude desse evento, diversos estudos foram realizados com o intuito de identificar os fatores de risco para a ocorrência de quedas e encontraram idade acima de 65 anos, alterações no nível de consciência, uso de medicamentos (antidepressivos, benzodiazepínicos, anti-hipertensivos), síncope e hipotensão postural, incontinência vesical e/ou intestinal, distúrbios do equilíbrio, déficit motor, déficits sensoriais (acuidade visual e/ou auditiva diminuídas), déficits cognitivos, patologias osteomioarticulares, falta de segurança no meio ambiente e ocorrência prévia de quedas (4,7) .…”
