项目摘要

Before experimental studies we clarified health and safety measures and the present conditions of health management in care-giving workplaces based on existing documents.In experiments, we studied effects of care-giving techniques and assistive devices on workload and client's assessment in several care-giving tasks including transferring a client from a wheelchair to a bed, sitting a client up in bed, and moving a client up the bed. Use of sling showed the best results for both care-givers and a client when we summarized forward flexion angles of the care-giver's trunk, ratings of perceived exertion and preference of care-givers, and the client's assessment in transferring a client from a wheelchair to a bed. A combination of assistive device, putting the care-giver's right knee on the bed, and rotation method gave the best results in workload and preference of care-givers and client's assessment among five kinds of methods in sitting a client up in bed. Above results among nursing students were confirmed to be highly reproducible among professional nurses. In six kinds of care-giving methods for moving a client up the bed, two methods using a sliding board got the best ratings of perceived exertion and preference among care-givers, while two methods without any assistive device got the worst evaluation. These results by care-givers were almost similar to those by the client. Transferring distance of a client was longer in the methods without assistive device than in other methods. In physiological and biomechanical analyses, we also observed findings that were almost consistent to above results suggesting the effectiveness of assistive devices.We judge that useful results were obtained in above studies toward making guidelines for useful application of techniques and assistive devices, which aimed at reducing workload and guaranteeing safety of clients in care-giving tasks.

在实验研究之前，我们阐明了基于现有文档的护理工作场所中健康管理的当前健康管理条件。在实验中，我们研究了护理技术和辅助设备对工作量和客户评估的影响任务包括将客户从轮椅转移到床上，将客户坐在床上，然后将客户移到床上。当我们总结了护理人员的后备箱的前进屈曲角度，感知的劳累和护理人员的偏爱以及客户从轮椅上转移客户时的评估时床。辅助设备的结合，将护理人员的右膝盖放在床上，旋转方法在护理人员的工作量和偏爱以及客户评估的五种方法中，在床上坐在床上的五种方法中，都为您带来了最佳结果。在护理学生中，在专业护士中，在护理专业的学生中的结果很高。在六种用于将客户移到床上的护理方法中，使用滑动板的两种方法获得了对护理人员的劳累和偏好的最佳评分，而没有任何辅助设备的两种方法获得了最糟糕的评估。照顾者的这些结果几乎与客户相似。在没有辅助设备的方法中，客户的传输距离比其他方法更长。在生理和生物力学分析中，我们还观察到了与上述结果几乎一致的发现，表明辅助设备的有效性。我们判断，在上述研究中获得了有用的结果，以制定有用的技术和辅助设备的指南，该指南旨在降低旨在降低的结果。工作量和确保客户在护理任务中的安全。
