Használati utasítás a SD&C Senior Suit Béta 3

A SD&C Rangidős Suit Beta 3 lehetővé teszi a szimuláció a hatások az öregedés, hogy teszteljék a az idősek általi használatra szánt termékek és környezetek használhatósága. A szimuláció a normál biológiai öregedési folyamatra korlátozódik, míg a geriátriai A betegségeket kizárják. A szimuláció magában foglalja a normál öregedés fő hatásait, mint vannak: kevesebb erő, kevesebb mozgathatóság és romlott szenzoros detektálás a látás, a hallás és a tapintható érzék tekintetében.

• 1 speciális szimulációs optika
• 1 special electronic set of ear muffs including batteries

Öltöztes eljárás

The simulation will add about 30 to 40 years of age onto the present age of a person, depending on the individual fitness. Not everybody is suitable to try this. The age of the test person should be between 15 and 60 years. Elder persons may try the simulation suit only, if they are sufficiently fit. Persons with deteriorated health, weak and pregnant persons should not try the simulation. The simulation should also not be applied to children, if their musculoskeletal system is still weak. Children normally are happily satisfied if they get the ear muffs on and are allowed to take a look through the simulation optics. Over the age span between 15 and 25 years of age, the simulation has a stronger effect regarding physical force while having less effect regarding movability and sensory limitation. Best test results are achieved when different persons aged 20 to 40 years use the simulation suit and assessments are averaged.

Figyelem: Senkit sem szabad megdöbbenteni, depressziósnak vagy traumatizálni az életkor-szimulációval!

1. Dressing up starts with putting on the jumpsuit. Jackets and pullovers should be dressed off and laid aside, shoes should be taken off. The jumpsuit protects a person’s clothes, improves hygiene and allows an exact and stable placement of the movement restriction. The size of the jumpsuit is adjusted to the height of a person by turning over the sleeves as needed.
2. The special vest is put on and the nine weights are fitted into the pockets. The additional weight gives the test person a first experience of what an additional weight means for the body, as with overweight. For weaker than average persons weight pockets may be left empty. In addition to the weight on the chest, the side strips at both sides of the vest may now be used to further squeeze the upper body simulating breathing difficulties.
3. Now the knee bandages (with four buttons) are put over the knees. The plane side should be outside and the velcro side should be used to fix the bandage right over the knee to the velcro stripes of the jumpsuit. The knee-bandages simulate reduced movability. The knee bandages allow different levels of restriction, however only light restriction should be applied to be realistic. It is possible to put the bandages on while a person stands, but it is also possible to do so with a seated person stretching out the leg for the procedure. If a camping chair without arm rests is used, the person will later be surprized how hard it is to put on the shoes again and to get up.
4. The elbow bandages (with three buttons) are put on next directly over the elbow joint. The bandages simulate the deteriorated movability of the arms. The bandages are put on while the arm is stretched out. They should be put on close to the arms, but should not be fastened too much. Reaching over the head will be more difficult now, but should not be impossible.
5. The heavier pair of weight bandages (1,5 kg) are now attached above the ankles, but must still allow wearing shoes. These weights simulate the reduced strength of the legs. Together with the weights in the simulation vest, the effect can be best demonstrated when walking up stairs.
6. The test person now receives the gloves to put them on himself. The gloves simulate the reduced tactile sense. E.g. unpacking medication or finding coins in a purse is becoming harder now.
7. The short and fingerless wrist bandages can be put on to simulate stiffer fingers of the basilar bones of the hand.
8. Now the less heavy pair of weight bandages (1,0 kg) are stripped around the lower part of the arms. It should be taken care that a wrist watch does not hurt the test person. Together with the reduced arm movability the test persons can now experience how much more difficult it is to reach out and grip things needed.
9. The neck brace is put around the neck of the test person with the opening to the back. This limits the degrees that the head can turn sideways, thus also limiting the field of peripheral vision.
10. The test person now receives the simulation optics to put on himself. A test person’s own pairs of fragile glasses should be put aside to a safe place, while the optics can be put over stable glasses. The optics simulates the peripheral limitation of the field of vision, a change in colour vision, a light macular degeneration and an increased need for illumination. The visor allows the simulation of two stages, each adding 20 years of age. The simulation should be started with the visorup, simulating only 20 years of ageing. Thereafter the visor can be switched down to simulate 40 years of ageing.
11. Now the ear muffs are put on. With increasing age hearing deteriorates, especially higher frequencies are no longer heard by the elderly. With batteries included, the lower turn button can switch on a tinnitus sound, that can be increased in loudness, so that speech comprehension is deteriorated down to misunderstandings.
12. The dressing process is now completed, and the SD&C Senior Suit Beta can now be used to assess products and environments.

A kis feladatokat mivel ez bizonyítja az öregség hatásait, pl. csipkék, lépcsők, szövegolvasás a gyógyszerekről, csomagok megnyitása, üzemeltetés mobiltelefont vagy hallókészüléket, bizonyos mennyiségű pénzt kapjon a egy táskát. A folyadékokkal és a szimulációs öltönyt piszkossá tesznek kerülendő.

A szimulációs öltönyben minden személyt kíséret a biztonság érdekében! Az öregedés gyors folyamata a normál évek nélkül a kiigazítás ideje szédüléshez és megingáshoz vezethet!

Ha több napig használja az életkor-szimulációs öltönyt, a jumpsuitot, a kesztyűt és a nyakmerevítőt minden nap végén meg kell mosni. A kezeslábas és a kesztyű géppel mosható, a nyakmerevítőt kézzel kell mosni. Szükség esetén a kötszerek és a mellény is mosható. A fülvédő és az optika higiénikus törülközővel tisztítható.
