The Story Of Gout, W. S. C. Copeman

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

It had long been suspected that gout might be a disease of varying origins, but it has only been during the present century that primary or acquired gout and hereditary gout have been clearly defined and differentiated. A considerable number of secondary types are now recognised. Several are of iatrogenic nature, whereas others result from disorders of the blood, the bone marrow and the metabolism, as well as from associated specific defects such as those in the Lesch-Nyhan Syndrome of children. Increasing knowledge of gout's chemical secrets, however, is resulting in improved treatment, and we can now assert that gout …

Changing Concepts Of Deviance, Douglas D. Bond

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

As I look at the list of distinguished Stoneburner Lecturers, I see I am honored by being the first psychiatrist. This is a tribute to the Department of Psychiatry. In thinking about this paper, I at first considered giving a kind of history of psychiatry. What seemed to me more interesting, however, was an examination of our whole perspective on deviance, in general, and what we call “illness”—an example of a certain kind of deviance, or, perhaps more accurately, a certain way of looking at deviance.

Anxiety, Defense And Cognition: A Theoretical Basis For Practical Handling Of The Surgical Patient, Stanley L. Block

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

Both the anxiety-defense model and the cognitive model provide a scientific basis for practical handling of the surgical patient. Emerging from both models is a humanistic approach to the patient based on understanding and a nonjudgmental attitude as well as on a knowledge of where the patient is psychologically and a willingness to meet him on his ground. The rewards in terms of a reduction of anxiety, depression, and human suffering can be enormous.

What Referring Physicians Can Expect From The Psychiatrist, David R. Hawkins

MCV/Q, Medical College of Virginia Quarterly

I hope that I have persuaded you that the psychiatrist can be a very useful colleague to non-psychiatric physicians. He can be most useful if the referring physician works at developing a mutual learning relationship with him and keeping all lines of communication open.

Pig Husbandry Research In Western Australia, N W. Godfrey

Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4

IN the past it has not been possible to undertake research work with pigs on any appreciable scale in Western Australia.

A small herd has been maintained at Denmark Research Station for some years as a demonstration side-line unit, run in conjunction with the dairy herd.

A number of very useful trials have been carried out with the Denmark herd, but its size has limited the comprehensiveness of the type of research work that could be undertaken.

1969 Apothecary, Southwestern Oklahoma State University

Apothecary

As we come to the close of another academic year, so ends this edition of THE APOTHECARY. For many of us, this is our last year of formal education at dear ole Southwestern. As well as rejoicing, we can look at this as a sad moment for in the future lies the inevitable visit with Uncle Sam (for the males) and facing the hard cruel world; also, we will be separated from our friends and acquaintances whom we've known for five years. We wish to congratulate all the Seniors and wish them the best of luck for a great and …

A Guide To 'Under The Volcano', Gladys Marie Andersen

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

Readers both before and after the publication of Malcolm Lowry's Under the Volcano frequently misunderstood Lowry's Method and consequently oversimplified His Beaning, Judging the novel to be over- written and carelessly constructed, they suggested cute or revisions. close reading, however, vindicates teary, who Insisted that extreme care had gone into his multi-leveled hovel and that any substantial deletions or modifications would bare the overall plan of his work.

Relationship Between Sleep Deprivation And Postpartum Depression, Janet Wagner

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

Postpartum depression was thought to be an important component of maternity blues and was the factor explored in this study. Sleep was hypothesized as a factor affecting either the occurrence or severity of postpartum depression. Hence, the purpose of this study was to determine the relationship between sleep deprivation and postpartum depression.

Twenty patients were interviewed one to three weeks prior to their expected dates of delivery. The Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory Depression scale was administered during the interview and each patient kept a record of her hours of sleep during the following week. Each patient again kept a record …

Effect On Quality Nursing Care When Nurses Assume Selected Unique Nursing Functions, Gail True, Chieko Honda, Lynn Gates Keegan, Ann Marsa, Ila J. Mobley, Esther Oldham, Betty Robertson, Annette M. Ross, Beverly Steele

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

The purposes of this study were (1) to reduce the gap in nursing between theory and practice by applying to nursing practice selected nursing theory as identified in literature, and (2) to determine the quality of nursing care given when nurses carried out their unique functions in seven selected areas.

The study was conducted in a university hospital over a period of eight weeks on two, twenty-six-bed general surgical units, one experimental and one control. The nurses on the experimental unit were allowed to function independently in seven chosen areas: (1) frequency of taking and recording temperature, pulse, respiration, and …

Primiparae's Identification Of Critical Incidents During First Postpartum Month And Their Evaluations Of Subsequent Nursing Intervention, Jane M. Erwin

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

The purpose of this exploratory study was to investigate (1) what physical care critical incidents primiparae experience while providing mother-infant care during the first postpartum month and (2) what evaluations mothers give to nursing intervention applied to such critical incidents.

Six mothers who met the criteria of selection were visited four or five times. The first visit was made in the hospital to obtain background information of the mother's preparation for maternal and infant care. The second through the fourth visits were made in the home in order to record physical care critical incidents that they ex perienced while caring …

A Study In The Comparison Of Ocular And Extremity Dominance Among A Stuttering And Non-Stuttering School-Age Population, Bruce Frank Brantingham

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

The nul-hypothesis has been confirmed by the analysis of the study, in that they show no relationship between stuttering and unilateral dominance. The results indicate that the laterality measure of the experimental group did not differ significantly from that of the control group.

In as much as the results of only one statistical test were significant, it is felt that this does not detract from the contribution of the study. It would seem that the results obtained from this comparison, the analysis of overall visual adequacy and extremity dominance, could have occurred by chance alone. It is pointed out, however, …

An Instructional Method For Self-Administered Medications, Beryl Marx, Lorene Russell

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

An experimental study was done to determine the effectiveness of an instructional method for older ambulatory patients taking prescribed self-administered medications. This method was developed to emphasize the physicians' specific orders, the purpose of medications, feedback of instruction and a plan for remembering and recording medications. The hypothesis tested was that a selected group of ambulatory patients age 60 and over with the instructional method would make significantly fewer errors than a similar control group with no instructions.

Sixty private patients from the Loma Linda University Hospital outpatient department were selected and randomly placed in the experimental and control groups. …

Play Preparation For The Adeno-Tonsillectomy Patient, Carol Brown, Harriet Hecker

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

Hospitalization and surgery have been recognized as being psychologically stressful for the majority of children. Hospital personnel have attempted to reduce some of the unnecessary psychological stress incurred by children by the use of many different methods. This study attempted to evaluate the use of preoperative play preparation sessions for minimizing this stress. The method was experimental with one variable. The subjects were forty-one children aged three and one-half to seven and one-half who had adeno-tonsillectomies. Twenty-one children comprising Group E were involved in a play session by the researchers. Twenty children were not prepared in this way. The tools …
