The Effects Of Chronic Anaerobic Infection On Atherosclerosis In Rabbits, Janet Smitheran Bissell

Theses and Dissertations

Arterial disease is virtually a universal entity in man. Some cultures, such as the African Bantus have very little in the way of vascular lesions, while in the United States and other industrialized nations atherosclerosis affects a large segment of the population. With this in mind it is not hard to understand why ischemia, or arteriosclerotic heart disease, is second only to cardiovascular diseases in general as the major cause of death in the United States (4, 42).

Ruffer (112) noted the presence of arterial lesions in Egyptian mummies dating back 3,400 years. The presence of atherosclerotic lesions has also …

Sexual Adjustment After Myocardial Infarction, Brenda Hove Long

Theses and Dissertations

"Cardiovascular diseases claim more American lives than all other causes of death combined,”¹ as stated in the American Heart Association's Heart Facts 1975. In 1972, it was estimated that 1,036,560 individuals died of cardiovascular disease; 683,100 of these were attributable to acute myocardial infarction.² In addition, an estimated 28,420,000 Americans have some type of cardiovascular disease at a cost of $20 billion annually.³ The figures ”bring home" a stalking reality; cardiovascular disease is epidemic in this country, the incidence and ramifications of which make it an ever-present threat to all Americans. The greatest threat is heart attack, …

The Use Of Dance As A Tool For Personality Integration, Barbara Throckmorton Rankin

Dissertations and Theses

This study is exploratory in nature. The material was highly individualistic and subjective, so I have deviated from the traditional empirical research approach. My purpose is to grasp what kind of person was attracted to attending a dance workshop. How does Halprin’s use of dance assist people in learning about themselves? What kinds of information do people learn about themselves through her dance process? What techniques does Halprin combine with the medium of dance to get results? Are people enhanced, or better integrated by the Halprin process? Finally, my intention was to be stimulated by the Halprin process to explore …

A Study Of Requests For Voluntary Admission To Oregon State Hospital, Julie Kern, Jeanne Miller, Alice Plummer

Dissertations and Theses

This study was undertaken in February and March of 1975 in order to provide in depth analysis of those seeking hospital admission. It is a descriptive study of requests for voluntary admission to Oregon State Hospital. Special care was taken to incorporate the study in such a way that the current admitting procedures would not be rearranged or changed in any way.

Essentially the study asks the questions:

• Who makes self-requests for hospitalization?
• Where do they come from? When? How do they get there? Why do they come?
• What is the history of their contact with other community agencies for …

Brokaw School Of Nursing Student Handbook, Circa 1976, Laura J. Mahlum

IWU Digitized Nursing Archives

This pre-1976 nursing student handbook represents just one of many, spanning from the Brokaw Collegiate School of Nursing, 1976-1977, to the Illinois Wesleyan University School of Nursing Student Handbook, 2002-2003, housed in Tate Archives & Special Collections. Reading through a few of these, you can see the changes made over time, which demonstrate the evolution of nursing here at Illinois Wesleyan. The Brokaw handbook is only eight pages, while the one published in 2002 is twenty-eight, which makes sense as there were only twenty-two topics covered within those eight pages: all only having a few sentences underneath them. Over the …

The Extent To Which The Nursing Process Is Acknowledged By I.W.U'S Baccalaureate Nursing Graduates As Compared To Other Nursing Graduates Employed In This Community, Debra S. Schwieman

Honors Projects

The importance of the nursing process has been demonstrated in the past decade and therefore a need exists to investigate whether or not nurses feel they are able to utilize that process to its maximum and whether or not barriers exist which prevent such maximum utilization. The utilization of the nursing process in evaluation of nursing care has been demonstrated. The criterion for evaluation of record keeping has been nursing care. Therefore, the nursing process is related to the quality of nursing care and to the quality of record keeping.
