Overview
The main objective is to describe strategies (verbal, non-verbal (gesture, intonation), and environmental), designed and used by the assisting/aided dyad to feed a dysphagic dependent person by articulating the safe and hedonic dimensions in the context of Parkinson's disease or atypical parkinsonian syndrome during a meal
Description
It is described in the literature that being helped for the meal disrupts the pre-oral phase in the visual and proprioceptive afferences received by the sick person to prepare neurologically the other phases of swallowing. In cases of dysphagia, regardless of the cause, the need for food assistance is correlated with higher mortality and an increased risk of pneumonia. Thus, whether at home or in an establishment, human help is often put in place to facilitate the time of the meal, make it more effective (limitation of the duration of the meal, maximization of the nutritional amounts ingested) and safe (prevention of the occurrence of wrong driving). Our hypothesis is that representations about food and aid at meal times, as well as the attitudes of both the helper and the helped, are factors influencing the realization of an adapted human aid when eating a meal in a dependent person. An observation of a meal during a hospitalization and an interview with the sick person and his caregiver are carried out independently. Between 15 days and a month after the first visit, excerpts from the film will be presented and commented by the dyad according to the technique of self-confrontation. A report of the thematic elements identified during the interviews will be proposed for validation by the dyad. This visit can be made during a scheduled appointment in the hospital, by videoconference or at home if the participants do not have access to a videoconference system.
