Full textABSTRACT Integrative medicine (IM) is a dynamic and increasingly prevalent model of primary health care that combines complementary and alternative medicine with mainstream medicine. This research is about the practice of IM and its value to primary health care in Australia. It locates IM within Australian health care by revealing its processes and outcomes in terms of: practice styles, interactions between practitioners and clients and among practitioners, range of diagnostic and treatment options, and health benefits. In this research I examine the nature of integrative medicine (IM) in co-located primary health care practices and consider the influence that integrating mainstream medicine and CAM can have on the perceived quality of primary health care in Australia. My goal was to contribute the knowledge of the phenomenon of IM through a deeper understanding and interpretation of IM gained by investigating the perceptions of core stakeholders, in this case clients and practitioners of IM. This research was situated in the interpretive paradigm and used two research methodologies: hermeneutics (to interpret the value of IM as reported in the literature) and hermeneutic phenomenology (to understand meanings and significance that clients and practitioners attach to their experiences of IM). Data collection involved the collation of existing literature texts and by cumulative case studies (using semi-structured interviews and observation), focus groups, and key informant interviews. Using a blend of methodologies provided a rich and powerful means of understanding the processes and outcomes of IM through the interpretations of its core stakeholders’ lived experiences. In particular I sought perceptions of clients and practitioners of IM about their health and health care including assessment and treatment options, health outcomes, congruence with beliefs and values, collaborative practices and power sharing. Data analysis was conducted concurrently with and subsequent to data collection so that questioning, observation and textual interpretation were progressively guided by the data. A set of meta-themes emerged from the fusion of findings from all phases of the research. These meta-themes represented answers to key research questions. They are: • Power/authority • Mutual respect • Professionalism • Ontological perspectives • Duty of care. This thesis identifies IM practice styles according to different levels of client agency and degrees of power sharing that exist among CAM and mainstream medical practitioners. A theorised model based on the research findings which depicts quality of health care as a variable consequence of diverse practice styles of IM is produced in two parts: Part 1 acknowledges that IM is a variable phenomenon in practice with different levels of collaboration, power-sharing and quality of health care; Part 2 presents an optimum mode of IM practice. Authentically client-centred health care is at the core of all of these practice styles. This thesis has significant implications for the way IM is practised and for primary health care delivery more broadly. IM that is mutually respectful and genuinely collaborative is flexible, inclusive, and socially relevant and has a substantial and far-reaching contribution to make to the quality of primary health care.

Full textThe communities, Pipalyatjara and Mimili, with populations slightly less than 300 each, are located in the Anangu Pitjantjatjara (AP) lands of Central Australia, in the northwest corner of the South Australia territory. At Pipalyatjara, a full SAFE-type intervention was undertaken, with the ‘E’ component designed and implemented by the NHC (Nganampa Health Council Inc.). At Mimili, only a SAF-type of intervention was implemented.
Baseline data was gathered for 18 months from March 1999 through September 2000 (five visits to Pipalyatjara and four at Mimili), and included determining trachoma prevalence levels using the WHO system, facial cleanliness, and nasal discharge parameters. A trachoma health program was implemented at the end of this period and a one-time dose of azithromycin was given in September of 2000. The chief focus of the study was children under 15 years of age.
Improvements in road sealing, landscaping, and the creation of mounds were started to improve dust control. Concurrently, efforts were made in the houses of the residents to improve the nine healthy living practices, which were scored in two surveys, in March 1999 and August 2001. Trachoma prevalence, and levels of facial cleanliness and nasal discharge were determined at 3, 6, and 12 months following antibiotic administration.
In children less than 15 years of age, the pre-intervention prevalence level of TF (Trachoma Follicular) was 42% at Pipalyatjara, and 44% at Mimili. For the 1-9 year age group, the TF prevalence was 47% and 54% respectively. For TI (Trachoma Intense), the pre-intervention prevalence was 8% for Pipalyatjara, and 9% for Mimili. The TF prevalence, adjusted for clustering, and using only individuals present at baseline and follow-up (3, 6, and 12 months post-intervention), was 41.5%, 21.2%, 20.0%, and 20.0% at Pipalyatjara respectively. For Mimili, the corresponding prevalence figures were 43.5%, 18.2%, 18.2%, and 30%.
In the 1-9 year age group, a lower TF prevalence existed between the pre-intervention and 12-month post-intervention points at Pipalyatjara compared to Mimili. The TF prevalence after the intervention was also lower for males compared to females, when the cohorts were grouped by gender, rather than community. It is posited that reinfection was much higher at Mimili within this age group, however, in both communities, there appeared to be a core of females whose trachoma status did not change. This is speculated as mainly being caused by prolonged inflammation, though persistent infection C. Trachomatis cannot be ruled out.
Facial cleanliness and nasal discharge continued to improve throughout the intervention at both communities, but at the 3-month post-intervention point no longer became a good predictor of trachoma.
It is not known whether the improvements in the environment at Pipalyatjara were responsible for the reduction in trachoma prevalence 12 months after the intervention, relative to Mimili.
