The hypothesis is that the current bedpan is not adapted to the diversity of patients encountered. It is necessary to collect the opinions of patients themselves on the current pool in different departments in order to validate our hypothesis. The objective is to evaluate pain in patients with reduced or very reduced mobility caused by the bedpan currently used in current practice through an observational study.
Patients with reduced or severely reduced mobility, over 18 years of age, bedridden and requiring the use of a bedpan, estimated hospitalization equal to or greater than 2 days on the ward.
Study Type
OBSERVATIONAL
Enrollment
300
The study examines how patients and caregivers feel when using the bedpan. Over the course of a day, collecting all this information would take just under 7 minutes. Over the duration of patient participation (2 days), we estimate that it would take a total of 15 minutes per patient to collect this information. The objectives are focused on pain and discomfort, and on the alteration of the (patient's) skin condition through objective observation of redness or stage I pressure sores by the caregiver.

RECRUITINGAssessment of pain in a patient with reduced or very reduced mobility when using a bedpan.
Pain will be assessed using a numerical pain scale (EN). The caregiver will ask the patient to rate his or her pain between 0 (no pain) and 10 (the most intense pain imaginable).
Time frame: Four assessments in 48 hours
Assess the proportion of patients with a MCID of the pain felt by the patient in pre-installation > 1.3
Time frame: 48 hours
Assess the maximum pain felt by the patient pre/post and per/post use of the bedpan.
Pain will be assessed using a numerical pain scale (EN). The caregiver will ask the patient to rate his or her pain between 0 (no pain) and 10 (the most intense pain imaginable).
Time frame: 48 hours
Assess patient discomfort on the bedpan
discomfort will be defined by the addition of a cushion, rolled towel, treatment oil or the need for the bedpan to be repositioned
Time frame: 48 hours
Assess alteration of skin condition at the seat of the patient using the bedpan
Appearance of stage I redness or pressure sores (redness that does not disappear) on the patient's seat, after using the bedpan
Time frame: 48 hours
Assess the caregiver's pain when handling the bedpan, placing the bedpan in position and removing the bedpan.
Pain will be assessed using a numerical pain scale (EN). The caregiver will rate his or her pain between 0 (no pain) and 10 (the most intense pain imaginable).
Time frame: 48 hours
Assess the risk factors associated with the onset of pain when placing a bedpan.

RECRUITINGTime frame: 48 hours
Assess the difficulty of positioning and removing the bedpan.
Painfulness of placing and removing the bedpan, assessed by the caregiver using a Likert scale between 1 (easy) and 5 (impossible alone)
Time frame: 48 hours
Assess bedpan stability during use
Stability will be evaluated by the tilting, or not, of the bedpan during use by the patient.
Time frame: 48 hours
Evaluate the effect of time spent on the bedpan on: pain, skin alteration and discomfort
Time frame: 48 hours
