Abstract:
The use of Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) is now widespread and endeavours are increasingly being made to incorporate CAM into conventional healthcare and move towards Integrative Medicine (IM). To date research has primarily focused on the prevalence of use, and safety and efficacy of CAM; less is known about patients' experiences of and reasons for using specific therapies. While therapeutically diverse, it has been suggested that many CAM modalities share mutually referential ideologies and that people who use them may be motivated to do so by specific health beliefs. This study focuses on traditional acupuncture in a New Zealand context and investigates users' experiences and perceptions of the therapy, and discusses how personal health beliefs influence usage. A systematic review of relevant international qualitative research informed the main study, which was carried out using an interpretive phenomenological methodology (Heidegger's approach). Data was gathered from interviews with 12 participants who had recently received treatment from traditionally trained (non-biomedical) acupuncturists. Thematic analysis suggested that acupuncture was often sought for health conditions (typically of a chronic and benign nature) that are difficult to treat conventionally. Whereas initial access was primarily motivated by ineffective biomedical treatment, personal health beliefs-particularly subscription to holistic and vitalistic ideologies-often inspired more extensive and ongoing use. The therapeutic encounter was interpreted to contain many elements-other than needling-integral to treatment. Outcomes were perceived to be wide ranging, personal and necessarily subjective, and included the relief of symptoms, increased well-being, and changes to understandings and health behaviours. It is concluded that the attraction of acupuncture for patients and many of its perceived benefits lie in therapeutic components that are ultimately embedded in Chinese medicine (holistic) theories of health. A more pluralistic schema for assessing evidence may be necessary to acknowledge treatment outcomes that are meaningful to patients, and to accommodate the divergent ontologies and practice models of acupuncture, other CAMs and biomedicine. Increased interdisciplinary cooperation and communication is suggested as a means to improve patient safety and satisfaction and as a scenario for moving forward with IM.

Brooks, Lauren. "Looking for alternatives : risk, reflexivity and complementary therapies." Thesis, Durham University, 2005. http://etheses.dur.ac.uk/2790/.

Abstract:
This thesis explores individuals' motivations for using complementary and alternative medicines (CAM). More specifically, the thesis explores the relationship between the use of CAM and wider social and cultural changes which have altered individuals’ expectations about their health and their understanding of risk and embodiment. The thesis draws on data from 24 in-depth interviews with individuals using a range of complementary and alternative health practices. Building on previous literature in this field this thesis not only explores individuals' initial motivations for using CAM, but also the reasons why they remain engaged with such practices and how their motives change over the course of time. I argue that the use of complementary and alternative medicines should be understood in terms of a career. As individuals progress along the CAM career trajectory their motives for using any given therapy not only change, but they also acquire further justifications and rationalizations for using CAM. One of the main motivations for using complementary therapies, amongst the participants of this study, was because of concerns over the safety of Western medicines, which were associated with potential risks to the health of the body. In contrast, so-called 'natural' remedies or other types of complementary therapies were seen to represent a relatively 'risk-free’ alternative. In this sense I argue that complementary therapies are adopted as part of a strategy of risk avoidance and as a means of coping with the anxieties associated with caring for health and body within late modem society. The thesis also explores individuals' use of complementary and alternative medicines for self-care purposes. I argue that such practices should be viewed as a form of resistance to medical control and an attempt to regain control over the self. The thesis not only adds to our current understanding of complementary therapies within contemporary society, but also makes a significant contribution to key sociological debates.

Abstract:
Interest in complementary therapies appeared with people’s growing concern for a healthy lifestyle and as they search for ways of promoting health. The therapies range from the medicinal, such as homeopathy and herbal medicine, to the physical such as massage and manipulation. Many of the therapies, including acupuncture and ayurveda, have arisen in the East and been adapted for Westerners. Using techniques of manipulation and massage, osteopaths work on bones, joints, muscles and connective tissues of the musculoskeletal system to improve their functions and health of the whole body.

Abstract:
This study is an exploratory study, descriptive in nature and investigates the familiarity and practices of midwives and women with regard to complementary therapies during pregnancy and labour. The study was conducted in four major hospitals in Western Sydney, namely Nepean, Jamieson, Blue Mountains Anzac Memorial and Hawkesbury hospitals. The findings showed that in the main the midwives and women were familiar and made use of four therapies, ie. aromatherapy, massage, music and hydrotherapy. The midwives practiced without any significant training in these therapies. Hospital policies were almost non existant in relation to the practice of complementary therapies and nurses often felt frustrated at not being able to implement complementary therapies. The main issues that emerged from the study were the need for education for the midwives related to specific complementary therapies, hospital policies conducive to the practice of complementary therapies and research into the efficacy of the different complementary therapies. The women need further exposure to complementary therapies and education in the respective therapies if they are to feel empowered in dealing with the stress of their daily lives

Abstract:
Meeting patient expectations in relation to pain management is an essential component of palliative and end-of-life care. However, previous research has demonstrated that pain is highly prevalent, especially during the four months prior to death. Poorly controlled pain contributes to cognitive failure, depression and an inability to complete daily activities. Unfortunately, pain and symptom management are often inadequate for patients placed in hospice care. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the perspectives of hospice nurses on complementary and alternative therapies to determine if there is an educational need in order to aide in the management of chronic pain in older adults. A survey was developed in order to determine the nursing perceptions of complementary and alternative therapies. A total of 24 participants were recruited. The survey targeted 28 complementary and alternative therapies most commonly used as defined by National Institute for Complementary and Alternative Medicines (NCCAM). Each therapy was ranked on several aspects including perceptions, personal experience, and present knowledge and training. After completing the survey it was found that all participants were either eager or open to use some complementary and alternative therapies in their workplace, in spite of having an educational barrier on how to implement them, and wanted these therapies to become available to patients, families, and staff.

Abstract:
Abstract Combination therapies have been investigated as a mean to increase efficacy of disease treatment. For example, combinations such as radiation and chemotherapy, surgery and chemotherapy, and two different chemotherapies have become standard treatment for most cancers. Current theories suggest that vascular-mediated injury is an important mechanism of cryosurgical (reviewed in Gage and Baust (1998)) and hyperthermic destruction (Badylak et al., 1985; Dudar and Jain, 1984) in the treatment of solid tumors. These techniques appear complementary. Freezing creates vascular damage and promotes stasis within the vessels (Rabb et al., 1974), whereas hyperthermia creates cell and vascular destruction more effectively with a compromised vasculature (Shakil et al., 1999). Thus, in this study, we investigated the effect of combining these therapies on the vascular and tissue injury from the two therapies. We chose the dorsal skin flap chamber (DSFC) implanted in the Copenhagen rat as the cryosurgical model for this study. This in vivo freezing model allowed us to monitor thermal history and investigate both vascular and tissue injury in response to the combination therapy.

Abstract:
Context: Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT), also known as inflammatory pseudotumor or plasma cell granuloma is a benign tumor of mesenchymal origin that can occur in different anatomical locations, but is more common in the lung and liver, being rare in the central nervous system (CNS). The main challenge when finding this type of tumor in meninges is to make the differential diagnosis with metastatic neoplastic infiltration, granulomatous and infectious diseases. The ideal treatment is complete surgical resection, not requiring other complementary therapies due to its benign behavior. Case report: This work brings the case report of a 22-year-old young man who search medical attention due to headache and after extensive investigation presented the diagnosis of myofibroblastic tumor of the meninges. Conclusion: A comprehensive review of the literature on this type of tumor was carried out in this location, but with very few cases and papers written to date.

Abstract:
Introduction: Adequate pain management in the postoperative period of invasive surgeries is essential to promote patients' recovery and improve their quality of life. Postoperative pain can be severe and compromise respiratory function and overall well-being. Therefore, effective pain management strategies are essential. Objective: To examine the management of pain in the postoperative period of invasive surgery, exploring the available therapeutic options, their indications and clinical outcomes. Theoretical Framework: The topics covered include the different pharmacological approaches in 5 axes: such as the use of opioid and non-opioid analgesics, regional block techniques, adjuvant therapies such as acupuncture and hypnosis, as well as multimodal pain control strategies. Methodology: The electronic databases PubMed, Scopus and Web of Science were used. The following English descriptors were used: "postoperative pain management", "invasive surgery", "pain control strategies". The inclusion criteria were articles available in full text and written in English published in the last 10 years. Final Results: Pain management in the postoperative period of invasive surgery requires an individualized and multimodal approach. In addition to opioids, non-opioid analgesics, such as paracetamol and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), play an important role in the management of mild to moderate pain and can be used alone or in combination with opioids. Regional block techniques, such as peripheral nerve block and epidural block, have also been shown to be effective in reducing postoperative pain and decreasing the need for systemic opioids. Adjuvant therapies, such as acupuncture and hypnosis, and multimodal strategies, which combine different therapeutic approaches, have gained prominence as complementary options for pain management, helping to reduce the use of medications and promoting patient well-being.

Abstract:
Breast cancer (BC), a worldwide health issue, is the most common malignant cancer in women in Gulf region, including the State of Qatar. Unfortunately, malignant tumors has the capability to metastasis, which involves both migration and invasion of cancer cells which are the most threatening aspects of cancer (McSherry et al., 2007). Consequently, researchers have concentrated on Complementary and Alternative medicine (CAM) modalities, as conventional medicine has been facing various challenges such as; poor understanding of the mechanisms with BC proliferation and invasion within various groups of patients, drug resistance, and the failure of current therapies to completely cure the disease. A significant CAM method have been raised which is the treatment with herbs and extracts derived from seeds, leaves, fruits and roots of plants; each of these invariably represents a combination of several bioactive compounds. Our biofuel has provided us with a crude extract of a microalgae coded as T1 that consist of carotenoids, chlorophyll a, and chlorophyll b. Carotenoids is a bioactive molecule that inhibits the proliferation, migration, invasion and induce apoptosis to tumor cells.
