“…Armstrong-Esther et al [58], Waters [59], Edberg et al [60] and Nolan et al [61] use molar observations, such as physical activity and non-interactive behaviour. While Davies [62], Salmon [63] and Thomas [64] use specifically defined verbal communication categories, such as explanation and jokes or puns.…”

“…For instance, the studies in elderly care [59,[61][62][63] or in the intensive care [73,74] do not offer specific clues for instrument development in oncology care. Studies directed at the occurrence of verbal and nonverbal behaviour, rather than the content of communication [71,72], neither offer guidelines for instrument development in cancer nursing (right-most column in Table 3).…”

The aim of this review is to identify assessment instruments that can be used for analyzing sequences and can be applied to research into nurse-patient communication in cancer care. A systematic search of the literature revealed a variety of methods and instruments applicable to studies recording nurse-patient interaction. The studies that were qualitative in nature offered valuable information on observational research in general, on procedures relating to informed consent and observational arrangements in nursing practice. The quantitative studies provided an insight into the content and structure of the interaction by describing communication concepts or by frequency counts of previously determined behaviours. Systematic research into interaction sequences was not found. However, some of the quantitative instruments identified could be adapted for this purpose. The complexity and time-consuming nature of observational research highlight the need for efficiency. For instance a combination of quantitative and qualitative instruments could be considered.

“…29,30 In nursing homes and longterm care facilities, although nurses seem to recognize the significance of privacy, its protection may be hindered by lack of time and resources, 31,32 and stereotypical performance of procedures and assessments. 33,34 Need for solitude, especially in relation to hygiene and elimination is still a major factor in privacy issues among institutionalized elderly people, 2 and anxiety about intrusion of personal space is also common. 35 The question of privacy in the institutionalized elderly population over 65 has not been sufficiently studied.…”

Ethics increasingly becomes a forefront issue in health care decision-making, as health care becomes more technologically and organizationally complex. Hence, a great number of new laws on the status and rights of patients and professional codes have been adopted in Europe. However, research suggests that violation of patients’ rights of autonomy, informed consent and privacy may still be common, especially in elderly care.

“…For example, evidence showed that nurses could reinforce dependent behaviors in older people by performing helping activities beyond their physical requirements or by underestimating their abilities (Miller, 1985;Waters, 1994). Also, the expectance of nurses might be different from what elders' believed was suitable for them.…”

This study aims to investigate the perceived enactment of autonomy (PEA) of Chinese elders as well as its relationship to other variables, such as morale, life satisfaction, need for assistance, subjective overall health status, etc. Selected demographic attributes (gender, age, living arrangements, etc.) were also examined for their relationship to PEA. A purposive sample of 324 subjects over 64 years old was recruited from homes and long-term care facilities in southern Taiwan. A Chinese version of the PEA scale (PEA-CV) and the Revised Philadelphia Geriatric Center Morale Scale (R-PGCMS) were used to measure PEA and morale. Data were analyzed using SPSS/PC software version 10.0. The results show that these elders had high perceived enactment of autonomy (mean = 2.99). Through multiple regression analysis, these results also revealed that need for daily living assistance, type of living arrangement, scores for morale and marital status significantly affected perceived enactment of autonomy among Chinese elders. The results suggest that we should help elders recognize possible choices, respect the choices they have made, advocate elders' autonomy while providing assistance, and design appropriate activities for them so that they gain a sense of freedom, individuality and independence. Directions for future studies are suggested.
