Le, Roux Enora. „Transition des soins pédiatriques vers les soins pour adultes chez les adolescents porteurs de maladie chronique“. Thesis, Paris 6, 2017. http://www.theses.fr/2017PA066113/document.
Der volle Inhalt der QuelleAt the end of their adolescence, patients with chronic disease since childhood go through a phase of healthcare transition, which involves the discharge of pediatric services and the entry into adult care services. This step poses many challenges and is recognised as a high risk period of discontinuity in care pathway. To avoid these situations, international recommendations and various programs have been proposed. In France, there is no generic recommendation for transition to adult care.The final goal of this thesis work was to propose a generic, relevant and feasible program for the transition of young people with varied chronic diseases into a large number of services in France.For this purpose, we used a mixed method research including: 1) Systematic review of intervention studies at the international level; 2) Qualitative study of existing transition practices in a set of hospital services in the Ile de France region (including Paris and its surroundings); 3) National consensus survey for the development of a relevant and feasible transition program using the Delphi method.We observed that the existence of transition programs was highly dependent on services: some offering almost no adaptation of care during this process, others offering highly structured programs. Overall, the programs were not really specific to pathologies.At the end of this thesis work, we proposed a generic program which can be considered as a common core of transition practices. Among other thing, it will allow professionals involved in the follow-up of pathologies that are under-studied in the context of the transition to propose essential and minimal practices to their patients

Chez les personnes de 65 ans et plus, l’insuffisance cardiaque est l’une des premières causes d’hospitalisation. Les coûts reliés aux soins de l’insuffisance cardiaque sont exorbitants. Les symptômes de l’insuffisance cardiaque et les fréquentes hospitalisations compromettent grandement la transition suite à ces hospitalisations ainsi que la qualité de vie de ces personnes. Plusieurs études montrent que des programmes de soins de transition sont efficaces. Il demeure toutefois difficile de décrire les interventions spécifiques des infirmières pour arriver à ces résultats. Dans un contexte où les ressources sont limitées, documenter ces interventions s’avère nécessaire et prioritaire pour assurer leur application dans les milieux cliniques. Des interventions infirmières efficaces et appropriées favorisent une meilleure adaptation, diminuent les complications au cours de la transition et évitent des hospitalisations à répétition. Elles contribuent ainsi à diminuer l’utilisation des services et améliorer la qualité de vie de ces personnes. La présente étude s’inspire du modèle d’adaptation de Roy (2009) et des grandes fonctions infirmières de Dallaire et Dallaire (2008). Elle visait à développer, mettre à l’essai et évaluer un programme d’interventions infirmières, pour soutenir le processus d’adaptation des personnes âgées hospitalisées suite à une décompensation de leur insuffisance cardiaque, lors de la transition de l’hôpital vers le domicile. Une méthode mixte a été privilégiée. L’utilisation du processus d’élaboration et d’évaluation des interventions de Sidani et Braden (2011) a permis d’élaborer un programme d’interventions après avoir développé une compréhension approfondie des besoins des personnes âgées et clarifié les composantes des interventions infirmières. Pour ce faire, en plus d’une revue des théories explicatives et de la littérature empirique, des entrevues individuelles semi-dirigées des personnes âgées et leurs proches, des infirmières et d’autres professionnels expérimentés ont été réalisées. Une méthode d’échantillonnage théorique a assuré une représentation adéquate par sept personnes âgées et six de leurs proches. Une méthode d’échantillonnage par choix raisonné a permis de recruter neuf infirmières et cinq autres professionnels de la santé. L’analyse des données, effectuée par un processus inductif et déductif, a permis de développer un programme d’interventions détaillé et optimal. Ce dernier a été mis à l’essai à l’aide d’un devis prétest et post-test avec groupe de comparaison. Pour le pilote, dix personnes âgées hospitalisées pour une décompensation de leur insuffisance cardiaque ont été recrutées et assignées au hasard dans le groupe expérimental ou le groupe contrôle. Le programme d’interventions comprend une visite à l’hôpital, avant le départ, et cinq visites à domicile intercalées d’appels téléphoniques. À chaque séance, l’infirmière pose différentes interventions personnalisées afin de favoriser l’adaptation de la personne au niveau physiologique, psychique et spirituel, social et afin de favoriser ses relations avec les autres. La mise à l’essai montre la faisabilité et l’acceptabilité du programme d’interventions. De plus, des effets du programme d’interventions chez les personnes âgées et l’utilisation des services sont documentés. Des différences statistiquement significatives sont observées entre les deux groupes en ce qui concerne les habiletés d’autogestion de la maladie ainsi que le degré d’incertitude perçu. De plus, des tendances positives sont observées chez les participants du groupe expérimental pour le sentiment d’être prêt et l’adaptation au départ ainsi que pour la qualité de vie. Aucune différence statistiquement significative entre les deux groupes n’est observée pour l’utilisation des services, mais les données montrent que les participants du groupe expérimental ont bénéficié d’interventions ayant potentiellement évité un déplacement vers les services d’urgence et une hospitalisation. En conclusion, cette étude montre que des interventions infirmières spécifiques, qui favorisent l’adaptation globale des personnes âgées insuffisantes cardiaques en transition de l’hôpital vers le domicile, sont efficaces. Un programme d’interventions infirmières qui répond directement aux besoins et aux difficultés de cette clientèle contribue à une meilleure gestion de la maladie chronique et à une meilleure qualité de vie.

Heart failure is one of the most common reason for hospitalization in patients aged 65 years and older. This chronic condition affects these elderly, has recurrent and progressive deterioration pattern that compromise quality of life and impose significant impacts on our health care system. Effective transitional care programs may improve clinical outcomes and reduce hospital readmissions. However, it remains difficult to describe theses complex nursing interventions to achieve these results. Very little research has examined the ways through which these programs achieve their particular effects. In a context of limited resources, documenting these interventions and mechanisms seems to be necessary to insure their application and adequacy in the clinical practice. Effective and appropriate nursing interventions reduce complications, increased the length of time between hospital discharge and readmission and reduce total number of hospitalizations. They contribute to improve the quality of life for these people while contributing to decrease the costs. Based on Roy’s adaptation model (Roy, 2009) and nursing functions model by Dallaire et Dallaire (2008), the purpose of this study was to develop, implement and evaluate a nurse transitional care program for older with chronic heart failure at the discharge of hospital. To achieve this goal, a mixed method was privileged. The systematic process proposed by Sidani et Braden (2011) was used to conceptualize and evaluate the nursing interventions program. Theories and empiric literature were used. Also, nine nurses, five health care professionals and seven older people with chronic heart failure and six caregivers participated in semi-structured interviews. An analytic method was used to conceptualize the nursing interventions program. This program was tested. Ten elderly were recruited and randomized in two groups: control and intervention. Five people tested and evaluated the nursing interventions program. The program consists of one session at hospital, before departure and five sessions at home with phones calls between homes visits. Each session includes nursing interventions to promote physiologic, psychic and spiritual, social and relational adaptation. The study results showed the feasibility and the acceptability of the nursing interventions program. The intervention group had significantly improved self-care of their chronic illness and decrease feeling of uncertainty after 30 days. Also, there was a trend toward better readiness for hospital discharge, lower post discharge coping difficulties and better quality of life in the intervention group. No significant difference was found in hospital readmission and emergency consultation. Nursing interventions program show that intervention group received more interventions that may have prevented the use of health services. This study shows that nursing interventions promote holistic adaptation of older people with chronic heart failure at discharge from hospital. Nursing interventions that respond directly to the needs and difficulties of this clientele contribute to better disease management and quality of life.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleTransitions between treatment strategies in chronic kidney disease are often not prepared and can lead to morbidity and mortality. It is necessary to anticipate these transitions to improve patients outcomes and health care organisation. We aimed at studying three pathways observed in the career of chronic kidney disease patients.We have shown that patients treated by hemodialysis before peritoneal dialysis start and failed transplant patients had a higher risk of early peritoneal dialysis failure. Early peritonitis was also associated with a higher risk of early technical failure. It is therefore important to evaluate the necessity to create an arterio-venous fistula in peritoneal dialysis patients during the first months on dialysis, to avoid transfer in hemodialysis on a central venous catheter.We reported that the rate of arterio-venous fistula infections in satellite dialysis units was low. However, it seems necessary to distinguish the risk for having a first infection and the risk for having a relapse of infection. This consideration can help decreasing the number of fallback between stallite units and hospital dialysis centers.Finally, we studied transition between end-stage renal disease and dialysis in cancer patients. We showed that incidence of chronic dialysis initiation in that population was not higher then the one observed in the general population. Survival in dialysis was not different in cancer patients compared to matched patients without malignancy. We can hypothesise that only cancer patients in good condition are proposed for dialysis programs.It is necessary to consider the chronic kidney disease patients' care as an integrated care program, with transitions between treatment strategies that can be improved and anticipated

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleThe prognosis of childhood-onset chronic conditions has improved, such that more patients now reach adulthood. However, adolescence and entry into adulthood is a critical period that may be associated with poor outcomes, including gaps in care continuity and medical complications. Here, I first described hospitalization and mortality rates in youths registered for a long-term disease (LTD) before the age of 14 (N=1,752), relative to those with no LTD (N=52,346). A retrospective cohort (2005-2014) was built from a sample of the French national health insurance database, called Echantillon généraliste des Bénéficiaires. Approximately 3% of 14-year-old youths had been registered for a LTD. The mortality patterns by gender and the trend in hospitalization rates by age were different from those in the general population of the same age, especially after reaching the age of 18, which was followed by a fall in hospitalization rates. Then, using the same data, I showed that the prognosis of these youths living with a chronic disease, including mortality, was associated with low socio-economic level, as measured by being covered by Couverture Maladie Universelle Complementaire, a public complementary health insurance offering free access to care, delivered on the basis of very low househould incomes. Hence, overcoming financial barriers did not offset social health inequalities in this population. At last, one day, these youths have to be transferred to adult care. Moving to adult care is a critical time in patients’ follow-up that may lead to discontinuity in medical care. Transition programs are being gradually implemented, to prepare and smooth the transfer and support youths during this period. I performed a systematic review of literature (23 studies) that highlighted two aspects of continuity of care during transfer: engagement (first contacts) and retention in adult care once the first contact has been established. This review also emphasized the paucity of knowledge to evaluate transition programs in terms of care continuity. Finally, the results of this PhD raises many issues that need to be addressed, including coping strategies of young patients with high risk situations, and the role of transfer to adult care on patient behavior, prognosis and clinical practices. Studies involving patients with a large spectrum of severe chronic diseases, including factors related to healthcare organization, related to the disease, individual and familial, should be encouraged

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleSeveral Quebec healthcare establishments offer nursing externship programs. Each program has its own characteristics, the outcomes of which are still only partially understood. Furthermore, the way in which the externship affects the transition from student to extern has not yet been studied. Aim: Evaluate the impacts of an externship program and how it affects the transition experience of nursing externs. Method: Single case study with mixed methods, incorporating semi-structured individual interviews (n=10) with externs and nurses, documentary sources (n=15), and quantitative administrative data. Content analysis, modelling, and descriptive statistical analyses were performed depending on the nature of the data. Results: The characteristics of the externship program were exposed through a program logic model. Qualitatively, strengthening of the five competencies targeted by the externship program and a renewal of identity were observed. The quantitative data showed improvements in only two competencies, namely ‘contributing to health status evaluation’ and ‘recording information and observations’. Three explanatory narratives emerged regarding how the externship’s characteristics and the interventions practiced by supervising nurses shaped the transition experience: 1) a welcome and training period helped overcome uncertainty at the beginning of an externship, 2) a lack of preparation or poor understanding hindered externship progress, and 3) it was difficult to maintain an overall view of externs’ progress. Conclusion: A nursing externship is not only about filling a labour gap; it is an investment in consolidating the skills and the identity of future nurses.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleIn Quebec, the aging of the population is leading to a significant increase in nursing needs, particularly in the community. Indeed, seniors living in the community and whose health status is fragile regularly see their care needs change, particularly because they spend many hours in hospital, which contributes to their functional decline. This is particularly true in the context of intermediate resources, where people living in them already deal with disabilities and complex health problems. Failure to provide the necessary nursing care can lead to a rapid deterioration in the senior's level of autonomy and health status, which compromises community maintenance and leads to an increase in the use of institutionalized long-term care housing. It is therefore imperative to facilitate, through the provision of appropriate nursing care, the delicate transition period experienced by seniors following hospitalization. Indeed, the presence of adapted transitional care significantly reduces hospital readmissions and emergency room visits, in addition to having a positive effect on the overall health status of seniors and their quality of life. The objectives of this research project were therefore to develop a nursing intervention protocol to facilitate the transition of seniors returning to intermediate resources after a hospital stay in Quebec, and to assess the feasibility and acceptability of the latter as part of a pilot project in a clinical setting. The definition of nursing care recommended for this research project is that proposed by the McGill model. This definition underlies the nurse's intervention, and involves mobilizing the strengths, resources and motivation of seniors and their families to improve their health or recovery through their ability to cope and develop, here in the context of the post-hospital transition. On the other hand, the theory of self-determination (Deci & Ryan, 1985; Ryan & Deci, 2017f), the mini-theory of basic psychological needs (Ryan & Deci, 2017a), the middle-range theory of self-care of chronic illness (Riegel, Jaarsma, & Strömberg, 2012) and the theory of uncertainty (Mishel, 1988, 1990) also provide a very significant theoretical perspective in this project. The intervention research method used is that of Sidani and Braden (2011). This method involves both a deductive approach, through the use of middle-range theories and the consultation of empirical data, and an inductive approach, through the collection of experiential data. In this three-phase project, a descriptive qualitative approach was used for the experiential data collected from eleven (n=11) senior participants and health professionals. A triangulation of experiential, empirical and theoretical data then provided an in-depth understanding of the transition experienced by seniors returning to intermediate resources following hospitalization, and a list of unmet care needs (Phase 1, Step 1). The experiential data collected were again used to identify possible interventions and then triangulated with theoretical and empirical data to design the nursing interventions needed to adequately address the identified needs (Phase 1, Step 2) and then theorize these interventions (Phase 1, Step 3). Phase 2 of the project then consisted of operationalizing the results obtained in Phase 1 into a written intervention protocol. Finally, in Phase 3, a pilot project was conducted with three seniors (n=3). These seniors were provided with the intervention protocol, and its acceptability and feasibility were then studied, as well as its immediate effects. The results obtained suggest the acceptability and feasibility of the protocol developed and illustrate positive effects related to supporting people's autonomy, improving their self-care capacities and reducing the uncertainty experienced during the transition. Finally, in addition to revealing precisely how nurses can intervene to facilitate this transition, explaining the mechanisms underlying the effectiveness of proposed nursing interventions helps to illustrate why these interventions are beneficial to individuals and how they produce their effects, which is not currently available in the literature on nursing transitional care models.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleTransition from pediatric to adult care concerns a growing number of young people living with chronic illness. Although patient education is recommended to promote this transition, one particular model has not generated consensus. In a literature review, we have shown that research focuses on organizational issues and / or deals mainly with transition in a biomedical perspective. The perceived experience of young people during this period has been little explored. We then conducted a qualitative study of young people with various chronic diseases to better understand their educational needs, using developmental psychology and an educational skills approach. The interviews with young people have brought out a series of new roles that they have to embody during the transition, involving learning that would benefit from being more supported by the health care system. Ideas for educational strategies that promote youth learning have also emerged. This study allowed us to propose a specific patient education model for transition. The feasibility and acceptability of this model proposal was then assessed through three focus groups of healthcare providers and two focus groups with parents of youth in transition. All these results led us to propose a model of patient education to the change of roles

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleThe end of active treatment and the beginning of survivorship correspond to a period of transition which presents many challenges for cancer survivors, caregivers and the health care system. The cancer survivorship phase (that follows primary treatment) is a distinct phase but overlooked in the continuum of care. To facilitate the transition from the end of active treatment to survivorship and optimize the coordination of follow-up care, the implementation of a survivorship care plan is proposed. The purpose of this research is to develop, implement and evaluate whether a survivorship care plan (SCP) meets global needs, reduce emotional distress (fear of cancer recurrence) and promote the empowerment of women with endometrial cancer during the transition from the end of active treatment to survivorship. The research consists of two distinct phases. The first phase was to develop a survivorship care plan (SCP) for women with endometrial cancer and adjuvant treatments. The content of the SCP was selected from the literature review and data collected during interviews with 19 women with endometrial cancer, 24 health professionals working with this population and four managers dedicated to oncology. This first phase included the validation of the SCP by ten health professionals involved in the study. The second phase was to evaluate the feasibility, the acceptability of the SCP and pre-test its use to meet global needs, reduce emotional distress (fear of recurrence) and promote empowerment for 18 women with endometrial cancer and adjuvant treatments at the end of the active treatment towards survivorship. In terms of feasibility, the results suggest that the implementation of the SCP has challenges in terms of time, resources and coordination for the oncology nurse navigators. Regarding the acceptability of the SCP, the women perceived it as a tool with useful information that facilitates communication with the family doctor or other health professionals. The nurse navigators support its value added at the end of treatment and acknowledge that the discussion involved with the SCP highlights essential elements of monitoring and follow-up to take into account in survivorship and allows the emphasis on health self-management. For family doctors, the SCP is a tool with information for survivors that promotes reassurance, communication and continuity of care between health professionals. Finally, with regard to the usefulness of the SCP to meet global needs, the results suggest that all the needs are more satisfied at three-month follow-up for the group receiving the SCP. Although the fear of cancer recurrence decreases at the three-month follow-up for the group with SCP, 55% of women maintained a clinically significant score of 13 on severity subscale of fear of cancer recurrence at the end of treatment and 42% at three-month follow-up. Health self-management behaviors (empowerment) improved between the end of treatment and the three-month follow-up for the group receiving a SCP. Considering these results, the approach supports the relevance of implementing a survivorship care plan at the end of active treatment for women with endometrial cancer to fulfill information needs, promote communication and continuity of care with health care professionals and promote health self-management behaviors in survivorship. However, constraints of time, resources and coordination must be taken into account for its implementation in the clinical community. Keywords: Transition, end of active treatment, needs, cancer survivorship, survivorship care plan.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleStroke is the 2nd cause of death and the 3rd cause of acquired disability in adults worldwide. Returning home following a stroke is a key step for patients and their families. Because of the sudden nature of the stroke and the increasingly short length of stay, patients and their families have to adapt quickly to the patient's new state of health and to the new role of informal caregiver. Currently, around 60% of stroke survivors are discharge home after hospitalization in stroke center. Following the acute phase, the patient's care pathway care pathway at home can become very complex due to the need to involve many professionals from various specialties in the healthcare and social sectors. A lack of support during the transition from hospital to home can be detrimental to stroke survivor’s recovery and quality of life of their informal caregivers. They report a significant need for support during this transition period, seeking for personalized, understandable, high-quality information tailored to the various stages of recovery. The deployment of a post-stroke transition program could address these expectations. Transitional care has been shown to be effective in improving symptom management and strengthening self-management skills for individuals with chronic ilnesses. Currently, post-stroke transition programs mainly focus on functional recovery. At national level, no transition program offers a comprehensive bio-psycho-social approach to recovery, considering both stroke survivors and informal caregivers needs. The aim of this work was to develop and implement a patient-centred transition program and to assess its impact on the quality of life of stroke survivors and their informal caregivers. Our work followed the methodological framework developed by the Medical Research Council. It was organized into 3 parts: The first part consisted in identifying the online resources developed in the context of post-stroke psychosocial recovery and which had been evaluated. For this purpose, we conducted a Scoping Review targeting studies published between 2010 and 2024. The second part of the project was to develop a patient-centered transition program for stroke survivors and their informal caregivers, using a participatory approach. Using a user-centred design method, we were able to develop a program with two components: personalized follow-up by a case manager and access to an online information and resources platform about stroke. The final part of this work aimed to evaluate the feasibility of the transition program when returning home. This was the subject of a pilot randomized controlled trial conducted from the stroke center of the Hospices Civils de Lyon for a period of 6 months. This study also aimed to evaluate the implementation of the program so that it can be improved, if necessary and then rolled out on a larger scale. The methodology used throughout this work has enabled the development of a post-stroke transition program targeting needs of stroke survivors and their informal caregivers. The program was developed with the target population and received good acceptability. The feasibility of the study has been validated. The effectiveness of this program will be evaluated in a multi-centre randomised controlled trial

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleThe research aims to study the impact of future aging of the Algerian population on the financial balance of the pension system and health expenditure. After a period of rapid demographic growth, Algeria entered a phase of population aging. This was noticed on the age-sex pyramid for the first time in 1998, with a significant change in the age structure. Thischange was confirmed by the last census in 2008. In Algeria, as for fertility, aging is likely to follow a rapid or extremely rapid pace, within two to three decades, compared with observed experiences in developed countries. This will imply consequences in many areas including in pensions’ funding and health expenditure control. Within two to three decades, the pension and health spending will grow significantly as a result of aging. The government has to face the challenge of the future burden of aging of the Algerian population and to ensure the financial stability and sustainability of both systems, namely pensions and health

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleThis thesis aims to highlight the determinants of medical innovation and its impact on economic growth. It is based on building a database of spending and consumption of health goods and services between 1980 and 2010, and also on three theoretical models. Established results for cohorts born between 1923 and 2010 show that medical innovations are mainly determined by demographic changes. Moreover, even if these medical innovations have historically allowed the emergence of significant economies of scale, they do not currently play a leading role in macro-economic growth. Indeed, in the current conditions of stability of the survival curves, the mechanics of medical innovation does not appear as a driving force for macroeconomic growth short term. The multiplier effects of medical innovation on economic growth would be, on the short-term, negative or zero

O futuro da prática da engenharia é a incorporação de aspectos da microestrutura nas características macroestruturais dos solos de modo a simplificar e tornar mais realistas as análises geotécnicas. Consequentemente, é de fundamental importância que se entenda a estrutura dos solos em diferentes estados (inderformado, reconstitutído, remouldado, compactado, etc.) e se correlacionem os mesmos, já que se sabe que o estado inicial do solo dita o seu comportamento. Neste sentido, esta pesquisa está focada no desenvolvimento do entendimento das mudanças na estrutura do solo através dos tamanhos dos seus poros e sua distribuição quando submetido a carregamentos mecânicos assim como a determinação do estado mais apropriado para descrever um estado de referência do comportamento do solo. Os solos testados foram duas argilas: Caulinita e Ball; e um solo tropical transicional: Solo de Brasília. A partir dos solos estudados foram produzidas amostras com pH 9, reconstituídas, remoldadas e indeformadas, esta última somente para o solo de Brasília. Cada uma destas amostras foi submetida à compressão unidimensional combinada no oedometro e aparelho de taxa constante de deformação a diferentes tensões: 2, 90, 360, 2.000, 5.000 e 11.000kPa. Em seguida as amostras foram congeladas e secas pelo processo de liofilização e por último foram submetidas ao ensaio de porosimetria por intrusão de mercúrio. Adicionalmente, mediu-se a sucção inicial de algumas das amostras dos três solos estudados. A partir dos resultados dos ensaios realizados foram propostos dois modelos conceituais um para as argilas e outro para o solo transicional. Os resultados do ensaio de adensamento foram modelados usando uma adaptação do modelo constitutivo SCLAY-1S (Koskinen et al., 2002) na qual a variável x descreve os efeitos da estrutura ao invés de cimentação como proposto originalmente. Além disto, a amostra pH 9 foi considerada a amostra de referência, assim para este estado x = 0 e todas as outras amostras tem estrutura, de acordo com a metodologia aqui proposta. Os resultados mostraram que a metodologia proposta para obtenção das amostras é adequada. A sucção inicial foi satisfatoriamente correlacionada à tensão de preadensamento. Resultados das análises de porosimetria confirmam que o estado da estrutura das amostras com pH 9 é mais adequado para representar um estado de referência que o estado das amostras reconstituídas. As amostras com pH 9 apresentam uma estrutura dispersa já que as laterais da partícula de caulinita são carregadas negativamente assim como as faces. Dessa forma com o aumento do carregamento não há muitas configurações possíveis, a estrutura da amostra irá ficar cada vez mais orientada e alinhada paralelamente. O mesmo acontece com as amostras em outros estados. A amostra indeformada apresenta inicialmente a estrutura mais aberta, seguida da reconstituída e remouldada. À medida que o carregamento aumenta a estrutura destas outras amostras tende para uma configuração dispersa com as partículas de caulinita orientadas e alinhadas paralelamente. A modelagem constitutiva se mostrou apropriada, embora ainda haja necessidade de aprimoramento nos estudos para que o parâmetro ax possa ser correlacionado com a variável x. _________________________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT
The future of engineering practice is to incorporate aspects of the microstructure into the macroscopic characteristics of soils in order to simplify and make the geotechnical analysis more realistic. Therefore, it is fundamentally important to understand the structure of soils in various states (undisturbed, reconstituted, remoulded, compacted, etc.) and correlate them, as it is already known that the initial state of the soil dictates its behaviour. Hence, this research focuses on developing an understanding of the changes in the soil structure through its pore sizes and distribution under mechanical loading, as well as determining which state is appropriate to describe a reference state of the soil behaviour. The soils tested were the two clays: Kaolin and Ball; and the tropical transitional soil: Brasilia Soil. From the studied soils, samples with pH9, reconstituted, remoulded and undisturbed (for the Brasilia Soil only), were produced. Each of these samples was subjected to uniaxial compression combined with oedometer and Constant Rate of Strain (CRS) apparatus up to: 2, 90, 360, 2,000, 5,000 and 11,000 kPa. Specimens of these samples were then freeze-dried by the lyophilization process and lastly subjected to the Mercury Intrusion Porosimetry (MIP) test. Additionally, the initial suction of a few samples of the three soils was measured. From the results of the laboratory tests carried out, two conceptual models were proposed: one for the clays and one for the transitional soil. The results of the consolidation test were modelled using an adaptation of the constitutive model, SCLAY-1S (Koskinen et al., 2002), in which the variable x describes the structure rather than bonding as originally proposed. Furthermore, the pH9 sample was considered the reference state; thus this state has x = 0, while all other states have some structure, according to the methodology herein proposed. Results showed that the methodology proposed for obtaining the specimens is adequate. The initial suction measured was satisfactorily correlated to the preconsolidation stress. Results of the MIP confirmed that the pH9 state is the most suitable to represent a reference state, rather than the reconstituted state. The pH9 state presents a disperse structure, as the edges of the kaolinite particle are charged negatively as well as the faces. Therefore, as the loading increases there are not many possible configurations for this sample, hence the structure will orient in a preferential direction. The same happens for the samples in other states. The undisturbed sample has the most open structure, followed by the reconstituted and remoulded states. As the loading progresses, the structure of these samples tends towards the dispersed configuration with the kaolinite particles well-oriented and aligned in parallel with each other. The constitutive modelling is appropriate; however, there is still room for improvement studies to correlate the parameter ax with the state variable x.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleIn einem Tagebau können die feinkörnigen Böden in unterschiedlichen Zustandsformen entstehen. Dies sind zum einen klumpige Böden mit einer granular ähnlichen Struktur (Pseudokornstruktur) und einer hohen Konsistenzzahl und zum anderen Mischungen aus mehreren Tonen oder Schluffen mit niedriger Konsistenzzahl. Der Zustand wird dabei massgebend von dem Transport (z.B. Länge des Förderbandes) und dem Ausgangszustand (z.B. der Anfangsscherfestigkeit) beeinflusst. Klumpige Böden entstehen bei der Abbaggerung des natürlichen Materials auf der Abbauseite, welches eine hohe Festigkeit besitzt. Alle Böden werden normalerweise ohne Verdichtung verkippt, so entstehen bei der Verkippung von klumpigen Böden grosse Makro-Porenräume zwischen den Klumpen, welche sehr luft- bzw. wasserdurchlässig sind. Nach einiger Zeit entsteht eine neue Struktur aus den Klumpen und dem Material des sich von aussen auflösenden Klumpens, welches das Füllmaterial bildet. Wenn die Festigkeit des Ausgangsmaterials niedrig ist oder lange Transportwege stattfinden, zerfallen die Klumpen. Zudem werden die Böden von verschiedenen Schichten der Abbauseite unter einander gemischt, wodurch die Tongemische entstehen. Sowohl für die Dimensionierung und Berechnung der aus den Verkippungen entstehenden Tagebaurandböschungen sowie für eine spätere Nutzung des ehemaligen Tagebaugebietes ist die Kenntnisüber das Deformations- und Verformungsverhalten von Kippenböden notwendig. Daher wurden in dieser Arbeit Tagebauböden und ihr zeitlich veränderliches Verhalten untersucht. Dabei werden diese, bezugnehmend auf den Anfangszustand, in drei typische Materialien unterschieden: (1) der frisch verkippte klumpige Boden, (2) eine Mischung aus Klumpen und Füllmaterial, welche höhere Liegezeiten repräsentiert und (3) Mischungen von feinkörnigen Ausgangsböden. Zunächst wurden künstlich hergestellte klumpige Böden untersucht. Sie bilden eine Übergangsform zwischen aufbereiteten und natürlichen klumpigen Böden. Das Kompressions- und Scherverhalten sowie die Durchlässigkeit wurden an Ödometer und Triaxialversuchen bestimmt. Das Füllmaterial, welches die Makroporen zwischen den Klumpen füllt, spielt eine entscheidende Rolle für das Materialverhalten. Ähnlich wie bei den künstlich hergestellten klumpigen Böden schliessen sich auch bei den Böden im Tagebau die Makroporenschen bei niedrigen Spannungen. Dabei werden die Klumpen umgelagert. Allerdings befindet sich die Grenze des Spannungszustandes oberhalb der Critical State Line des Füllmaterials, was möglicherweise mit den unter Diagenese entstandenen Bodenstrukturen erklärt werden kann. Die Strukturänderung der klumpigen Böden kann aufgrund des Spannungsniveaus in drei mögliche Stufen unterteilt werden. Am Anfang ist die Kompressibilität der frischen verkippten Klumpen hoch, da sich die Makroporen bereits bei geringen Spannungen schliessen. Zu diesem Zeitpunkt sind auch die Durchlässigkeiten in erster Linie von den grossen Porenräumen der Makroporen, welche als Entwässerungspfade dienen, beeinflusst. Die Scherfestigkeit hingegen, wird durch die aufgeweichten Böden an den Oberflächen der Klumpen massgebend beeinflusst. Bei höheren Konsolidationspannungen sinkt die Kompressibilität und der Boden verhält sich wie einüberkonsolidierter Boden. Obwohl die Struktur aufgrund der veränderten Klumpenoberflächen zu diesem Zeitpunkt homogener wirkt, ist die Struktur noch heterogen und die Durchlässigkeit ist höher als bei einem aufbereiteten Boden mit gleichem spezifischem Volumen (Porenzahl). Letztendlich erreicht der aktuelle Spannungszustand den derüberkonsolidierten Klumpen und der gesamte Boden verhält sich wie ein normal konsolidierter Boden. Des Weiteren wurden isotrop konsolidierte drainierte Triaxialversuche an künstlich aus zwei Ausgangsmaterialien hergestellten Proben mit parallelen und seriellen Strukturen durchgeführt. Die Laborversuche zeigten, dass die Proben mit seriellem Aufbau dieselben Gleitflächen haben, wie der Ausgangsboden mit der niedrigeren Scherfestigkeit. Die Gleitfläche der Proben mit parallelen Strukturen verlief durch beide Materialien. Es wurde festgestellt, dass die Scherfestigkeit der seriell aufgebauten Proben geringfügig höher, als die des Bodens mit der niedrigeren Scherfestigkeit ist. Die Scherfestigkeit der parallel aufgebauten Proben liegt zwischen den beiden Ausgangsmaterialien. Danach wurde das Verhalten der künstlich erzeugten klumpigen Böden mit zufällig verteiltem Füllmaterial mit Hilfe der Finiten Elemente Methode verglichen. Die Simulationen zeigten, dass unter einer isotropen Kompressionsbelastung das Spannungsverhältnis, definiert aus dem Verhältnis der Spannung des Volumendurchschnitts zwischen den Klumpen und dem Füllmaterial, deutlich durch die Volumenanteile und die Vorkonsoliderungsspannung der Klumpen beeinflusst wird. Während das Volumenverhältnis eine untergeordnete Rolle in den in Triaxialzellen unter Scherung belasteten Proben spielt. Aus den Simulationsergebnissen und den Laborversuchen der beiden Grundkonfigurationen wurde ein Homogenisierungsgesetz abgeleitet, welches die Sekandensteifigkeiten verwendet. Das Kompressionsverhalten der Mischungen aus Klumpen und Füllmaterial wurde mit Blick auf die Homogenisierung analysiert. Zunächst kann das Volumen der Mischungen in 4 individuelle Komponentenanteile zerlegt werden. Die Makroporosität zwischen den Klumpen wurde zur Entwicklung der Volumenanteile des Füllmaterials eingeführt. Sie wurde als eine Funktion der totalen Porosität und der Materialien formuliert. Auf Grundlage einer theoretischen Analyse an klumpigen Böden und unter Zuhilfenahme einer numerischen Methode wird ein Gesetz zur Homogenisierung vorgeschlagen. Dieses enthält eine Beziehung zwischen der Tagentensteifigkeit der Klumpen und seinem Füllmaterial. Abschliessend wird ein einfaches Kompressionsmodel für die Mischung aus Klumpen und Füllmaterial vorgeschlagen, welches den Einfluss der Bodenstruktur und der Änderung des Volumenanteils des Füllmaterials berücksichtigt. Darüber hinaus wurde eine allgemeine Formulierung für das Konsolidationsverhalten der klumpigen Böden mit Füllmaterial vorgeschlagen, welche sich auf das Konzept der doppelten Porosität (Klumpen und Füllmaterial) und eine Homogenisierungstheoerie bezieht. Um das Verhalten der Klumpen bei niedrigen Spannungen zu beschreiben, wird eine neue Grenzbedingung unter Zuhilfenahme der äquivalenten Hvorslev-Spannung und des Criticial State Konzeptes vorgeschlagen. Der Struktureffekt für sensitive Böden wurde in die nichtlineare Hvorslev-Oberfläche eingebaut. Das allgemein gültige Cam-Clay-Model von McDowell und Hau (2003) wurde um die nasse Seite des Critical State Konzeptes erweitert. Eine Sekandensteifigkeit, definiert aus dem Verhältnis zwischen der Deviatorspannung und der Deviatordehnung, wurde für das Homogenisieurungsgesetz ebenfalls verwendet. Abschliessend wird ein Modell für natürliche klumpige Böden vorgestellt, welches auch eine Homogenisierung beinhaltet. Die physikalischen Eigenschaften, das Kompressionsverhalten und die undrainierten Scherfestigkeiten von aufbereiten Tongemischen wurden im Labor unter Herstellung künstlicher Bödengemische untersucht. Anschliessend wurde ein Kompressions- und Schermodell für aufbereitete Tongemische vorgeschlagen. Das Modell der Scherfestigkeit der Tongemische entstand aus der Vereinfachung der Tongemischstruktur, in welcher die Elemente der Ausgangsmaterialien zufällig in dem Einheitsvolumen verteilt sind. Werden Wassergehaltsverhältnisse (das Verhältnis der Wassergehalte der Ausgangsmaterialien) definiert, kann die undrainierte Scherfestigkeit für alle Bestandteile separat geschätzt werden und dannüber die Volumenanteile bestimmt werden. Ein Homogenisierungsgesetz wurde auf Grundlage der theoretischen Analyse von zufällig angeordneten Strukturen entwickelt. Ein einfaches Kompressionsmodell, welches N-Ausgangsmaterielien bzw. Tone und eine Homogenisierung enthält, wird vorgeschlagen, und an einer Mischung aus 2 Bestandteilen im Labor validiert

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleQuestions revolving around end of life and the grieving process that follows for loved ones are as relevant as they are puzzling. Is it unrealistic to think that mourning can be facilitated? This research aims to examine and build upon the work and theories of D. W. Winnicott. This research delves into how care may be transitional in the relationship and in the intersubjective space created by a triad of care: medical caregiver(s), patient and loved ones. From a sample of 30 patients, semi-structured interviews with 21 medical caregivers and 8 relatives were analyzed. This analysis shows how the care is transitional in the accompaniment. This research reveals the benefits of creating a transitional space during end of life care. First and foremost, it assists the patient in the here and the now of end of life; it, then, aids the caregivers. Medical caregivers and loved ones alike benefited from accompanying the patients in death both during the palliative care stages as well as afterwards as they worked through the grieving process

La investigación desarrollada en esta Tesis se centra en descubrir los efectos que tiene la estructura del suelo en su estado natural en la respuesta mecánica de dos suelos aluviales holocenos, depositados superficialmente: los limos del río Bormida (BRS) en Italia y los suelos limosos provenientes de la llanura aluvial del río Turia (VSS) en España. Este tipo de suelos se caracterizan frecuentemente por una estructura inicial altamente heterogénea. Se ha ensayado una gran variedad de muestras con diferentes granulometrías, desde arenas a arcillas limosas en las que se han realizado ensayos edométricos y triaxiales en muestras intactas, compactadas y en muestras reconstituidas (slurry). En una primera etapa de la investigación se caracterizó la respuesta del material en su estado reconstituido para definir un marco de referencia con el que poder comparar la respuesta de las muestras intactas tomadas in situ y que preservan su estructura natural (inalteradas). Se ha analizado la influencia del modo de preparación de las muestras en su comportamiento mecánico, y, en particular, en la unicidad de las curvas de compresión noval y de estado critico. Se ha comprobado que la estructura inicial inducida durante el proceso de preparación desaparece completamente tras someter la muestra a compresión y corte, independientemente del método de preparación utilizado. Únicamente un suelo mostró, de un modo nítido, el efecto de la técnica de preparación, de modo que las líneas de compresión edométrica se mantuvieron paralelas incluso a niveles de tensión elevados en el caso de muestras reconstituidas (slurry). Este resultado demostró, contrariamente a la opinión aceptada en la bibliografía, que el sistema de preparación de la muestra puede crear una potente estructura inicial dando lugar a un comportamiento de tipo transicional. En los ensayos de compresión edométrica se ha podido comprobar un claro efecto positivo de la estructura inicial de las muestras intactas, incluso a niveles altos de tensión, observándose índices de sensitividad tensional superiores a uno al final de los ensayos, de modo que para igualdad de índice de huecos, la tensión efectiva vertical de la muestra intacta es superior a la correspondiente en la muestra reconstituida. Aparentemente, este efecto es tanto más significativo cuanto mayor es el grado de heterogeneidad interno de la muestra a nivel de meso-estructura, como se pudo observar en algunas muestras de los suelos (VSS) que presentaban niveles de laminación horizontal. En los ensayos de corte la influencia de la estructura intacta fue relativamente pequeña y únicamente en el lado húmedo del estado critico.

Aquests tipus de sòls es caracteritzen sovint per una estructura inicial altament heterogènia. S'ha assajat una gran varietat de mostres amb diferents granulometries, des d'arenes fins a argiles llimoses amb les quals s'han realitzat assajos edomètrics i triaxials en mostres intactes, compactades i en mostres reconstituïdes (slurry).

S'ha comprovat que l'estructura inicial induïda al llarg del procés de preparació desapareix completament després de sotmetre la mostra a compressió i tall, independentment del mètode de preparació utilitzat. Únicament un sòl va mostrar clarament l'efecte de la tècnica de preparació, de manera que les línies de compressió edomètrica es van mantenir paral¿leles fins i tot a nivells de tensió elevats en el cas de mostres reconstituïdes (slurry). Aquest resultat va demostrar, contràriament a l'opinió acceptada en la bibliografia, que el sistema de preparació de la mostra pot crear una potent estructura inicial donant lloc a un comportament de tipus transicional. Als assajos de compressió edomètrica s'ha pogut comprovar un clar efecte positiu de l'estructura inicial de les mostres intactes, inclús a nivells alts de tensió, observant-se índexs de sensitivitat tensional superiors a la unitat al final dels assajos, de manera que per a igualtat d'índex de buits, la tensió efectiva vertical de la mostra intacta és superior a la corresponent en la mostra reconstituïda. Aparentment, aquest efecte és més significatiu quant major és el grau d'heterogeneïtat intern de la mostra a nivell de meso-estructura, com es va poder observar en algunes mostres dels sòls (VSS) que presentaven nivells de laminació horitzontal. Als assajos de tall la influència de l'estructura intacta va ser relativament petita i únicament en el costat humit de l'estat crític."

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleFrom two surveys in institutions for the elderly, an ethnography of the doctor-patient relationship attempts to decipher the relational dynamic during the act of personal hygiene for the patient. Not at all obvious, the sometimes violent refusal from people with Alzheimer's disease, is interpreted as offensive to the proposed care. Yet this daily gesture of care-giving and comfort by the creation of familiarity and trust becomes a moment of communication that can strengthen a weakening bond.This research presents an analysis of the types of relationships in the personal context of the disease and of accompaniment. Setting aside the safety imperatives of a medico-social organization, the moment of personal hygiene is a priviledged transistional act. This particular approach to care-giving in personal hygiene can, over time, identify the relational processes from an emotional perspective. The intimate inter-subjectivity lasting until the end of life creating a dialogue of mutual respect and acknowledgement.An appropriate methodology traces this journey to the beginnings of intimacy, a topic and an approach in a context of a gerontological structure

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleAt equilibrium, a material exhibits thermal noise linked to its electrical losses. Out of equilibrium, when a DC current is injected in the sample, 1/f noise appears. The main issue of this work is to record the low frequency noise measurement in view of the electrical characterization of the sample under test. Samples are films concerning modern electronics. The first part is devoted to the noise set-up allowing voltage and current measurements in the range 10 Hz-1MHz at temperatures between 77 K and 500 K. Moreover by simple switching the cell can be connected to an impedance analyzer. The second part concerns results about dielectric materials (liquid crystal), semiconductors (NbN) and HTC superconductors (YBaCuO).

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleThe main objective of this thesis was characterizing and analysing social presence in the transition(s) of Brazilian women from privileged classes to motherhood, in Brazil, France, Portugal and Sweden, inrecent years. As a final goal, it intended to contribute to de-construct the hegemonic model of ―good motherhood in Brazil, which is established from the experiences of middle-class white Brazilian wom-en. As methodological strategy, it focused on Brazilian mothers‘ experiences of presences, using Computer-Mediated Communication and three methods in parallel: a documentary research on official re-ports of perinatal health and family policies, biographical interviews and recording of daily diaries, articulated through a phenomenological perspective. Therefore, in my fieldwork I searched, in a spiral drift-ing, how certain moral rhetorics associated to gender, class and racial norms are reproduced by privileged mothers in maternal transitions. Beyond of this process of reproducing hegemonic representation of motherhood, I also found generating hesitations and ethical enactment among these women towards marginalized mothers such as racialized, single and poor ones. Finally, this thesis discusses how care ethics raise from daily parental relationships and how improving responsive social presence is quite significant for the promotion of such ethics beyond of feminine care work

College retention, persistence, and success levels continue to be lower for students of color, first-generation students, and low-income students compared to the White majority. This study, focusing on African American males from Philadelphia, set out to investigate the challenges that young, urban, low-income, and first-generation students face in their transition to and enrollment in institutions of post-secondary education. To accomplish this goal, the study at hand focused on two primary questions: RQ 1: What tools do young Black first-generation college students who go to school in and around their city of origin utilize in order to gain entry to institutions of post-secondary education and successfully transition to these institutions? RQ 2: How are young Black first-generation college students who go to school in and around their city of origin able to successfully navigate academic obligations and social responsibilities in their first year of college? To answer these questions, a qualitative research study was designed, and six young men fitting the criteria above were interviewed over the course of their first year of college. In total, each student participated in four interviews. Additionally, participants submitted their college entrance essays and personal statements, which were reviewed to confirm their narratives and coded for themes. Finally, college counselors for the non-profit that assisted each young man in his college planning were interviewed. These interviews focused on the counselor’s perception of success at the post-secondary level, and the ways that their non-profit could assist students. Student engagement theory, paired with a Critical Race paradigm, served as the primary theoretical lens through which data were analyzed. Additionally, literature on student resilience and self-efficacy was used to inform the interpretation of the data. Key findings include: the significance of family support during a student’s transition to college, the myriad ways that a student’s intersecting identities play a role in the collegiate experience, and the importance of engaging in campus life to form strong support networks and succeed academically. The young men of this study faced myriad challenges in the journey towards a college degree. From complex family relationships, to navigating stigma surrounding their identities, the obstacles facing these men are great. However, through forming a network of campus connections and using their past challenges to inform future decisions, the young men of this study are resisting stereotypes and pursuing their goals. Developing resilience and self-efficacy through self-reflection, vicarious experiences of trusted mentors and family members and supportive peer networks has and will continue to allow the young men of this study to achieve their goals.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleThe agroecological transition targets triple agronomic, ecological, and societal performance of farms. Some new agricultural practices had emerged to develop a new cropping system to respond to these constraints. Legumes constitute an interesting alternative. Indeed, legumes are advantageous for soils due to their symbiotic relationship with nitrogen-fixing bacteria. The presence of compatible rhizobia combined to nitrogen-limited conditions promotes symbiosis which is the most efficient way for legumes to acquire more nitrogen. Compared with non-nodulated plants, symbiosis provides a competitive advantage by increasing soil nitrogen pool. However, some grain legumes, notably winter pea, are rarely studied, especially in the Normandy region where no reference has been published for this crop. The objective of this study is to compare two crop successions for a period of two years (winter pea-wheat and rapeseed-wheat), in order to assess the effect of replacing rapeseed by winter pea at the head of the rotation .We evaluated the effect of these two crops (winter pea vs rapeseed) on the biological state of the soil and nitrogen fluxes at different spatio-temporal scales. The results showed a significant spatio-temporal effect on the response of soil microbial communities and highlighted the importance of the pedoclimatic context in determining the abundance and activity of soil microbial communities. A positive effect of winter pea has been demonstrated on the availability of mineral nitrogen during the crop cycle and for following crops (wheat and barley). The supply of nitrogen to the soil is linked to the rhizodeposition of nitrogen via plants roots and the degradation of crop residues after harvest. Our results showed that winter pea exhibited the greatest amount of nitrogen rhizodeposition. However, rhizodeposition did not have a significant impact on rhizospheric microbial communities. Contrary to these observations, the degradation of crop residues significantly modified the composition of bacterial communities linked to their initial biochemical composition. Crop succession including winter pea enriched the soil with mineral nitrogen but simulation with STICS software revealed a nitrogen leaching around of 23 kg N. ha-1 during the cropping cycle. These findings underline the importance of adapting an adequate crop management system, including winter pea, to limit nitrogen losses. The results showed also that wheat yields after winter pea without the use of nitrogen fertilizers were equivalent to those obtained after rapeseed. However, rapeseed required significant nitrogen fertilization. Including winter pea in crop rotation in Normandy region may be a key to enhance productivity, to respond to the challenges of agroecological transition, regional protein autonomy, and to reduce environmental and economic costs, by reducing notably, the costs of fertilizers production and uses

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleThe behaviour of quasi-saturated materials is an important factor to be considered when designing cuttings and embankments in which earthwork materials are compacted to the optimum proctor density. Typically, soil compaction is performed at the optimum Proctor or on the wet side of the optimum, which means that the soil is in a highly saturated state. Cruz et al (1985) have shown that at a high degree of saturation (greater than 85% or even 90% in the case of certain soils), the liquid phase is continuous whereas the gas phase in the form of entrapped air bubbles is discontinuous. It is the presence of the entrapped air bubbles which makes the soil behaviour complex. The construction of a theoretical model for this type of soils requires the consideration of various physical-mechanical phenomena and their couplings occurring within the tri-phasic medium consisting of the solid grains, liquid water containing dissolved air and the entrapped air bubbles. In this sense, a new hydromechanical model has been developed that takes into account the physical-mechanical interactions between different phases as well as the kinematics of each constituent (liquid water, dissolved air, gaseous air and solid grains). In particular, the model accounts for the interfacial tension, migration of gaseous and liquid phases, which have important impacts on the mechanical behaviour. The development leads to a system of highly non-linear partial differential equations which can be solved numerically using the finite element method. This new model has been implemented in a numerical code “Hydromech” written in C++, developed originally by Pereira (2005) that has been used to simulate oedometer tests with different hydromechanical loading paths. In particular, this code allows to simulate consistently the transition across different regimes of saturation, both with respect to space (progressive translation of a boundary between two neighbouring regimes) and to time (transition of one regime to another at a fixed material point); which constituted a difficult modelling problem at the start. Numerical studies carried out show that this model gives consistent results providing a clear demonstration of its ability to simulate with precision the hydro-mechanical behaviour of quasi-saturated soils containing entrapped air

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleThis Thesis is the reworking and re-composition of a study based on the experience acquired by the author from the following:• his active participation in the recent psychiatric reform in Greece (establishment and functioning of a shelter for asylum-seeker patients and later a daycentre for autistic children);• his clinical theory reflections on maltreatment and adolescents (offenders and victims of violence), what the author proposes to call violated transitions.• this research stretching over thirty years on the topic the continuing mourning of the missing persons in Cyprus (on account of the invasion of the island by Turkey in 1974) and the individual, social and political interferences with this impossible mourning;• his studies on the extension of the concept of the work of mourning (as a prototype of the psychic work in his report on the cultural work), the limits and obstacles that the mourning encounters in the context of culture and contemporary society.In the course of these developments, the adopted pluridisciplinary approach gives rise to a dialogue involving the Psychoanalysis, Anthropology and Literature of ancient Greece. Pluridisciplinarity allows, at the same time, the multiplication of approaches, in order to better seize of the phenomena in their complexity and relation to their environments, examine that which is developing on the interfaces, bring out in relief our conceptual and methodological limitations, in order to place into perspective the ways of disengagement and overtaking. (The study on the presumed primacy of the mother in Psychoanalysis and Anthropology, as well as the study on postmodern culture as an anti-mournful meta-frame, are examples of this).4In multiplying the expressions of psychic suffering that have to be studied, the environments where they manifest themselves and the perspectives of their examination, the author is forced to show that the structure and the psychic processes of the individual subject, especially their sufferings, cannot be sufficiently understood and even less so sustained and alleviated, whether one relates them to the loads and contents they take for other subjects, or one articulates and places them in communication with other psychic functions of the latter, also with the frames and meta-frames in which the subjects fall, in their capacity as accepting party and constituent party of a trans-subjective unit.Hypotheses on the inter-subjective processes, functions and contents of transfer, load, transit, trans-subjective framing, recovery and re-symbolization are at the forefront of this work

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleThe barriers in transition-to-practice for newly graduated nurses on intensive care units has been well documented. Independent professional practice is, in particular, one of the barriers shared by newly graduated nurses integrating an intensive care unit. This research aims to explore the perceptions of newly graduated nurses and preceptors regarding the professional autonomy development of the newly graduated nurses in a nursing residency program on intensive care units. Nursing residency programs were developed in order to facilitate transition-to-practice of newly graduated nurses. In these programs, the evaluation that assesses clinical competence development can be primarily based on the newly graduated nurse’s autonomy. However, few studies focus on the development of professional autonomy of newly graduated nurses. As study framework, a model that includes Benner's stages of clinical competence (1982), Tardif's competency assessment approach (2006) and a definition of professional autonomy as suggested by Létourneau (2017) is proposed. By conducting a descriptive exploratory study, semi-structured individual interviews collected the data from newly graduated nurses (n=6), while preceptors (n= 4) shared their perceptions during focus groups. Content analysis by Van der Maren (1996) was used for data analysis. The results include the barriers encountered in the early career of the newly graduated nurses in critical care setting, a definition of professional autonomy and the influences of the newly graduated nurses’ professional autonomy development. The influences of the newly graduated nurses’ professional autonomy development and the definition of professional autonomy have been linked in a concept map. Considering these findings, implications for practice, research, education and management in nursing were made.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleThis master's thesis in anthropology is the result of fieldwork conducted in the neonatal intensive care unit of the CHU Sainte-Justine. It aims to document the decision-making practices regarding the withdrawal of life-sustaining interventions. The patients’ end-of-life treatment decisions are underpinned by ethical, socio-cultural, and professional issues. Through extended observations and interviews with caregivers from this service, these situations have proven to be riddled with uncertainty and characterized by differences of opinion. Far from being randomly distributed, these differences are generally divided along the lines of the medical and nursing professions. This study therefore concentrates on the organization of work in neonatology to better understand its influence on the formation of values and moral stances. The healthcare professionals’ relationship with uncertainty, as well as the choice to share or not the decision-making process within the healthcare team, are connected to these moral positions and reveal social and organizational dynamics at work within this hospital department. Finally, work in neonatology is observed through the lens of the cure and care dimensions of healthcare. From this perspective, end-of-life situations appear as an opportunity to offer care while recognizing the singularity and humanity of both caregivers and care receivers.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleAbstract The percentage of children and adolescents with a chronic condition who reach adulthood has increased significantly in past decades due to improvements in medicine and has given rise to the question of transition from child-centered care (CCC) to adult-centered care (ACC). Transition of care has been described by researchers and clinicians as a complex process that can be associated with important challenges, such as a lack of adherence to treatment in ACC. Despite the numerous writings on the subject, there is a dearth of longitudinal studies based on a contextual framework. The main goal of the present thesis is to identify factors that can facilitate patients’ transition experience by using a longitudinal methodology and by anchoring the research in a well-defined contextual framework. The thesis is comprised of three scientific articles. The first article examined identity development, a central task of adolescence. Identity achievement, in contrast to identity diffusion, is characterized by a coherent sense of who one is following a period of exploration and can help navigate the challenges of adulthood. This study examined identity within a quality of life (QOL) context in 85 adolescents with a renal transplant or Type 1 diabetes in comparison to 90 healthy controls. Results revealed significant différences in ideological identity, with patients showing higher levels of diffusion and controls showing higher levels of foreclosure. The study revealed no differences with respect to interpersonal identity, QOL, perceived control over the QOL domains, and perceived opportunities for growth and development. The results of identity development are discussed and put in perspective based on patients’ self-reported QOL. The second article is a literature review that aimed to systematically summarize transition studies on patients’ perspective and, based on these results, identify factors that facilitate transition to ACC. Using a metasummary methodology, we extracted, grouped, and abstracted the findings from 46 qualitative and descriptive quantitative studies involving patients before and/or after their transfer to ACC. Empirical results on transition fell into four groups: (1) patients’ feelings and concerns; (2) patients’ recommendations about transition; (3) outcomes after transfer; and (4) mode of transfer. Our results are discussed within a theoretical transition framework that emphasizes the importance of fulfilling conditions that can lead to a successful transition. The main objective of the third article was to gain a better understanding of adolescent patients’ transition experience from CCC to ACC in light of a pre-determined theory. Given the importance awarded by patients to their medical environment, the self-determination theory was chosen. According to the self-determination theory, patients who perceive their health care environment as autonomy supportive will feel motivated and competent to manage their condition and will show increased adherence to their treatment. We followed the transition experience of patients with Type 1 diabetes or a renal transplant 6 months before (n= 85), and 6 months (n= 49) and one year (n= 36) after their transfer to ACC. The results revealed that patients generally felt ready to transfer. Following transfer, there was a decline in patients’ perception of autonomy support. In contrast, one year following transfer, patients reported a significant increase in their sense of choice and their adaptation to ACC. Higher levels of autonomy support were also associated with feelings of satisfaction, motivation, competence and self-reported adherence. The practical relevance of this study is discussed.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleThe number of foreign educated nurses (FEN) is in constant progression in Canada. Preceptorship is considered best practice to facilitate the professional transition of FEN in their new environment (Sherman & Eggenberger, 2008). During this period, the challenges for FEN are important because of the differences in culture and practice between the country of origin and the landed one (Johnston & Mohide, 2008). Successful transition is necessary for the well-being of the FEN and their retention in work places, but also for their possible impact on patient’s safety and quality of care (Kawi & Xu, 2009). Inspired by the middle-range theory of transition (Meleis, Sawyer, Im, Messias, & Schumacher, 2000), the goal of this research was to describe the perceptions of FEN and preceptors, in regards to strategies used in preceptorship to overcome barriers and facilitate professional transition of FEN in Quebec’s health system. The results of this descriptive qualitative research were obtained from the analysis of semi-structured interviews with six FEN of French origins and two preceptors. Several strategies addressed to the FEN, the preceptor, the unit’s team members and the hospital organization were identified. Those for the FEN serve to exchange and integrate, accept and optimize, understand and learn, as well as to compare and select; those for the professional community assist to support, guide, personalize, explain and justify. The perceptions of FEN and preceptors vary on many of these strategies. Recommendations for nursing education, practice and nursing research are also provided.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleIn the province of Quebec, hospitalized older people requiring placement in public intermediate or long-term care facilities can be relocated multiple times within a hospital and between various institutions before a permanent place becomes available. This practice may have consequences on their health. The meanings that older people ascribe to this experience are unknow but can influence the older persons’ transitional process and shape the nature of the impacts on their health and well-being. Based on Meleis’ transition theory (2010), a critical microethnography study was designed aiming to understand the meanings of the transitional process of hospitalized older people requiring placement and living multiple relocations. The sample consisted of eight older persons who experienced at least two relocations while waiting for definite placement. Data was collected through semi-structured interviews and informal conversations. Data analysis followed the six steps method described by Braun and Clarke (2006). The results of this thematic analysis revealed that older people live spatial and temporal discontinuities during their transitional experience to which they assign meanings. These meanings are the perception to live long waiting periods in temporary places, rapid and unannounced relocations and emotional cuts. The uncertainty and helplessness that older people feel at different levels are also meanings that emerge from the transitional process. Another meaning ascribed by older people to their transitional experience is the great importance of "little things" of everyday life. Knowledge generated from this study has implications in various nursing fields. In particular, they offer ways to improve health and well-being in older people living a transitional process.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleIn recent years, several debates around social transitions in early childhood have emerged from public, clinical and scientific spheres. However, little has been published about the children’s transition experiences, particularly from their perspectives. Thus, this research project aims to explore the transition experiences of trans prepubertal children who have access to gender- affirming clinics in Canada from their and their parents’ perspectives. Using data extracted from a larger study conducted by Annie Pullen Sansfaçon and several other co-investigators in Canada, we analysed eight (N=8) semi-structured qualitative interviews conducted with four trans prepubertal children and their parents in a gender-affirming clinical setting. Data analysis was based on Axel Honneth’s recognition theory as well as on thematic analysis (TA). We identified five themes that describe the transition experiences of the trans prepubertal children in our sample: (1) revealing oneself to their parents by simply being themselves; (2) the transition process outside of the home: a process of negotiation and accompaniment; (3) school as the main site of tensions; (4) asserting oneself through the transition process: repercussions of obstacles and positive outcomes; and (5) looking ahead into the future: the medical transition. Understanding these transition experiences allows us to better frame the interventions of professionals in a context of affirming gender identities and expressions, accompanying families and defending children’s rights in different institutions.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleAfter breast cancer treatments, many survivors wish to return to an active social life that includes return to work. Although this step seems beneficial, it has several challenges to overcome, such as managing the side effects of treatment at work or varying support from colleagues and health professionals. However, aspects of this experience remain to be explored for survivors, who are most likely to return to their jobs. It is even possible that this experience may be similar to that of a transition. To our knowledge, few studies have addressed this experience from a transition perspective and from the perspective of survivors under the age of 50. The purpose of this study was to explore the experience of transitioning breast cancer survivors back to work. An exploratory qualitative study was conducted. Narrative interviews (n=8) were conducted with youth survivors who had returned to work for at least six months and were under the age of 50. An analysis of the thematic content was carried out. The results were grouped into four themes: 1) a life changed by cancer, 2) work is a sign of normality, 3) factors influencing the transition and 4) strategies mobilized to successfully transition back to work. The results suggest that breast cancer survivors want to leave their illness-tinged lives and return to a “normal” life that includes returning to work. The experience of transitioning back to work is also influenced by several factors that may facilitate or hinder it. This study highlighted the transition experience of women under the age of 50 who appear to have distinct challenges to return to work. Based on the results, many recommendations were developed to better support survivors during their transition back to work.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleQuebec nurses do not require a bachelor’s degree in order to obtain their license to practice. Choosing the college diploma entitles nurses to obtain a bachelor’s degree in two years instead of three by doing a DEC-BAC in nursing. Although many studies have shown the positive impact of having a greater number of baccalaureate-level nurses in the health care system, (Aiken, Clarke, Cheung, Sloane & Silber, 2003 ; Kane, Shamliyan, Mueller, Duval & Wilt, 2007 ; Tourangeau, Cranley & Jeffs, 2006 ; Aiken et al., 2014) the majority of nursing students choose not to enroll in university studies. The goal of the present study was to explore the incentives and obstacles to engage in university studies in the context of an integrated DEC-BAC curriculum. Fifty-six new CEGEP graduates completed a self-administered open-ended questions survey on the Internet. The theoretical framework used to guide this exploratory study was the transition middle-range theory of Meleis, Sawyer, Im, Hilfinger Messias and Schumacher (2010). Following this theory, data was collected and grouped into two themes, « incentives » and « obstacles », which were then analysed in order to see if they were determined by personal, community or societal conditions. The major incentives to engaging in university studies in the context of a DEC-BAC curriculum were related to the community conditions and were found to be better anticipated working conditions and the possibility of professional development. The major obstacles found were related to personal conditions and, particularly, to an unfavorable financial or family situation. We also found that Quebec’s context influences the decision to engage in university studies. Recommendations were provided for nursing practice and education, as well as for research.

Der volle Inhalt der QuelleHealth organizations are characterized by the complexity of their activities and a high level of care fragmentation that inevitably result in service coordination stakes. Their main coordination mechanism, knowledge and expertise standardization is an essential, but limited, mechanism. Thus, the challenge still stands for a health organization to promote knowledge utilization at an organizational level. This project evaluates how an organizational structure aiming at mobilization and knowledge utilization in decision making helps to improve the coordination services in a health organization. This research relies on a specific case: the Transition Support Office (TSO) of the McGill University Health Center (MUHC). The analysis uses a conceptual framework of organizational knowledge creation inspired by the work of Nonaka et al. Data have been collected by observations, documentary and interview analyses. This theory driven evaluation explains how the conversion process of tacit knowledge to explicit knowledge allows the dissemination and creation of new organizational knowledge and contributes to the improvement of service coordination. The evaluation demonstrates the influence of contextual factors on the processes of knowledge creation/utilization. The research shows that it is necessary to otherwise conceptualize the use of empirical data in decision making by highlighting their specific role in the social process of knowledge creation. We propose a new knowledge use typology in decision making. We also show how an organizational structure like the TSO can contribute to the care and service coordination in a health organization. Results also enrich the scientific knowledge on governance and organization transformation.

There are only some studies on the toposequence of steep landscape in Taiwan. The selected two transects locating in the area between Tatung Mountain and lower terrace to understand the pedogenic process of transition soils from Andisols to Ultisols under the same parent materials caused by different landscape and climate conditions. The objectives of this study are (1) to understand the distribution of soil taxa of soil pedons located on the different landscape positions after sampling representative soils through two transects in the study area, (2) to investigate the pedogenic processes of selected transition soils between typical Andisols and typical Ultisols, and (3) to establish the pedogenic indicators of transition soils located in this toposequence of the study area in Yangmingshan National Park of Taiwan. Seven soil pedons were located in the two transects between Tatung Mountain and lower terrace in the Yangmingshan National Park. One Andisol was selected from the top of the two transects which the elevation is higher than 700 m, annual air temperature is 17oC and annual precipitation is 4900mm. Four transition soils, Inceptisols, were selected from the backslope of the two transects which the elevation is between 100 m and 700 m, annual air temperature is 20-22 oC and annual precipitation is 2050-4000 mm. Two Ultisols were selected from the footslope of the two transects which the elevation is lower than 100 m, annual air temperature is 22 oC and annual precipitation is 2050 mm. The results indicated that we can select some pedogenic indicators, including soil morphological characteristics, physicochemical properties, and classification criteria of different Soil Order, to identify the soil characteristics of transition soils between Andisols and Ultisols. These pedogenic indicators included soil texture, consistence, bulk density, phosphate retention, oxalate extractable aluminum and iron content and silica (Alo + 1/2 Feo and Sio, %). The pedogenic indicators of typical Andisol are loam texture, very friable consistence, low bulk density (< 0.6 Mg/m3), high P retention (>90%), and high amorphous materials (Alo + 1/2Feo > 2.5 % and Sio 1.0-1.5 %). The pedogenic indicators of typical Ultisols are silt clay texture, firm and sticky and plastic consistence, high bulk density (1.35-1.50 Mg/m3), but very low P retention (ND) and very low amorphous materials (Alo + 1/2Feo < 0.7 % and Sio 0.2%). The pedogenic indicators of transition soils are silt clay loam or clay loam texture, friable, slightly sticky and slightly plastic consistence, moderate value of bulk density (0.8-1.0 Mg/m3), medium P retention (40-75%), and very low amorphous materials (Alo + 1/2Feo 1.5-2.5 % and Sio 0.3-0.4 %). The results indicated that the characteristics of Andisols can be changed to Inceptisols after long-term genesis in the same parent materials of andesite and other climates and topographic conditions located in Yangmingshan National Park, and the Inceptisols can be transferred to Ultisols after long-term genesis in this same parent material and other environmental conditions. We can select some pedogenic indicators to identify the transition process between Andisols and Ultisols in the study area. The characteristics of pedogenic process of transition soils included the increase tendency on bulk density and clay contents, but the decrease tendency on amorphous materials (Al, Fe, and Si) and phosphate retention. We also indicated that the clay illuviation is a main characteristics of Ultisols formed in the study area.
