Literature Evaluation Table Student Name: Summary of Clinical Issue (200-250 words): America has seen an increase in the number of aged persons over recent years attributed to the large sizeable baby boomer cohort. The complexity of the needs of the aged persons is one of the main challenge health practitioners’ faces. However, one of the issues nurses working with older people face is acknowledging cognitive changes in the aged. Most nurses fail to acknowledge when attribute subtle observed cognitive changes to underlying neurodegenerative conditions compared to normal developmental changes. However, various factors such as lifestyle and maintenance, among others influence the aged-associated cognitive changes. Moreover, nurses also struggle to contemplate the functional capacity of the aged in the physical and social environment. This is because most aged persons maintain a high level of functioning suggesting that the factors attributed to health, lifestyle, and the comparison between functional capabilities and environmental requires more powerfully determine performance. However, the diversity and complexity of needs among aged persons have also made it difficult for nurses to contemplate comprehensively patients psychopathology. Therefore, most nurses struggle to understand the psychopathology within the aged persons when providing care. Understanding patients’ psychopathology is fundamental to respond effectively to customers, especially those that often experience multiple physical and psychosocial problems. PICOT Question: Does understanding patients’ psychopathology improve caregiving among the aged persons after, especially during the initial months after being admitted.

Summary of;
Poon, L. W., Martin, P., & Bishop, A. (2010). Understanding centenarians’ psychosocial
dynamics and their contributions to health and quality of life. Current Gerontology
and Geriatrics Research, 20.
The above-sited article was developed in response to an identified gap in the understanding of
psychosocial factors impact on the longevity of life, health, and quality of life among the
aged in the United States of America. The above problem is associated with minimal funding
on research on aging with respect to the psychosocial domain. As such, the research
presented in the article purposed to illustrate how the four psychosocial domains affect the
life of the old in the United States. Thus, the researcher's objectives were; to define and
increase their understanding of the measurement of self-rated health and quality of life, to
outline the impact of demographic life events and personal history, personality, cognition,
and socio-economic resources and support systems. To achieve the above objectives, the
research was responding to the research question; how the identified four psychosocial
factors singly and in combination impact longevity and impact of life. As such, the research
proves to be most relevant to nursing since they have the potential to unveil the top secrets of
exceptional longevity when coupled with biological and medical ...
