Abstract:
Abstract Background To evaluate the 5-year sustainability of a multimodal intervention which included a prize to the hospital with the highest overall hand hygiene adherence rates among healthcare workers. Methods Design: An observational study using direct observation of hand hygiene adherence performed by a trained observer coupled with a survey of healthcare workers about their knowledge of hand hygiene practices. Setting: Three Japanese tertiary care hospitals. Study Population: Physicians and nurses working on an inpatient medical or surgical ward, an intensive care unit (ICU), or the emergency department. Outcome Measures: Hand hygiene adherence rates before patient contact using unobtrusive direct observation. Secondary outcomes were survey responses on a World Health Organization (WHO) questionnaire on hand hygiene. Results Data for the current study were collected between September and December 2017 at the 3 participating hospitals. An additional 2,485 observations were conducted during this 5-year post-intervention assessment. These observations were compared with 2,679 observations from the pre-intervention period, and 2,982 observations from the 6-month post-intervention period. Hand hygiene adherence rates had previously improved significantly after the introduction of a multimodal intervention – based on principles recommend by the WHO – in 2012 and 2013 in 3 Japanese hospitals (18.0% pre-intervention to 32.7% 6-months post-intervention; P < 0.001). No significant changes were found in hand hygiene adherence in these hospitals 5 years after the original intervention (31.9% 5-years post-intervention; P = 0.53); however, substantial variability in hand hygiene adherence by unit and healthcare worker type was noted. Conclusion A multimodal hand hygiene initiative achieved sustained improvement in hand hygiene adherence in 3 Japanese hospitals 5 years after the original intervention.

Abstract:
This article explores the ways in which the spatial layout of the Japanese fitness club reflects and organizes bodies according to cultural ideologies of leisure, gender, status, and hygiene. Based on qualitative research conducted at two fitness clubs in Japan. I examine how social relationships between men and women, clients and employees, and managers and staff are structured by the enclosure and exposure of space, the division of rooms, and the attention to cleanliness. I argue that the architecture of the fitness club is lied to power inequities that serve to regulate and manage bodies according to late capitalist ideals of efficiency, productivity, and hygiene. I emphasize that these ideals, however, often present certain contradictions when juxtaposed against longstanding cultural standards of effort, health, and beauty in Japan.

Abstract:
This thesis explores the issue of men's access to chronic illness self management programs from a social constructionist perspective. A combination of research methodologies was used; a quantitative analysis to confirm gender differences in levels and patterns of service use; a qualitative analysis to gain an increased understanding of the factors affecting men's access; and a trial to test the application of the research findings. The clients and services of Arthritis Victoria were chosen as the setting for this research. The quantitative analyses were conducted on contingency tables and odds ratios and confirmed that men were under-represented as service users. The analyses also identified gender differences in patterns of service use. The qualitative analysis was based on a series of in-depth, semi-structured interviews. It was undertaken from a grounded theory approach to allow for the development of theoretical explanations grounded in the data. It was found that men's decisions to access chronic illness self management programs were strongly influenced by dominant social constructions of masculinity which constrained help-seeking and health management behaviour. However, the restrictive influence of hegemonic masculinity was progressively undermined by the increasing severity of the chronic condition until a crisis point was reached in terms of the severity of the condition or its impact on lifestyle. This resulted in a reformulation or rejection of hegemonic masculinity. The described conceptual framework was consistent for men from diverse social groupings, although it appeared less prominent in both younger and older men, suggesting that dominant social constructions of masculinity have the greatest influence on health decisions during the middle stage of adulthood when work and family obligations are greatest. The thesis findings informed the development of some guiding principles for reviewing the structure and delivery of chronic illness self management services for men. The guiding principles will have direct application in the planning of Arthritis Victoria programs, and implications for other chronic illness self management programs in Australia, and also in Western countries with a similar health and sociocultural setting to Australia.

Adams, Karen. "Koori kids and otitis media prevention in Victoria." 2007. http://repository.unimelb.edu.au/10187/2371.

Full text
Abstract:
Otitis media and consequent hearing loss are known to be high in Koori communities. Previous research on otitis media in Koori communities has focused on its identification, treatment and management. Little research has focused on the prevention of otitis media. Victorian Aboriginal communities often have small populations which result in small sample sizes for research projects. Consequently use of traditional quantitative methods to measure of change arising from health interventions can be problematic. The aim of the research was to describe Koori children’s otitis media risk factors using a Koori research method in order to develop, implement and evaluate preventative interventions.

Kim, Hayang. "Sick at Heart: Mental Illness in Modern Japan." Thesis, 2015. https://doi.org/10.7916/D8KS6QM8.

Full text
Abstract:
This dissertation traces the evolution of ideas and experiences of mental illness (seishinbyō) in Japan around the turn of the twentieth century, showing how it changed from a diagnostic category of biomedical disease into a dynamic but stigmatized pathology of the self in which the mental and emotional core of a person – who he or she was, essentially – was thought to have malfunctioned. In the course of this transformation, seishinbyō had multiple manifestations, its meanings shifting across time and in different social contexts. It originated in Japanese psychiatric discourse of the 1870s as an allegedly universal category of disease, but was soon modified to account for such existing phenomena as fox-spirit possession. In the family, one of the main sites for the management and treatment of madness in modern Japan, mental illness was associated less with medical etiology and more with violent and socially unacceptable behavior, as seen in cases of home confinement. As the concept of mental illness spread in popular culture and legal discourse, it evolved into a broader cultural idiom about the pathology of the self during a time of rapid social and cultural change. From the gendering of hysteria as the feminine counterpart to male neurasthenia in the media to the menstrual psychosis defense invoked to absolve female defendants of criminal responsibility, gender played an especially prominent role in this evolution. By the 1930s, the idea that the self was the source of its own distress had taken root, shifting attention away from external and social factors, whether fox possession or the stresses of modernity, to inner causes of suffering. The driving forces behind this conceptual change were the social structures and relations of family, gender, and the urban-rural divide. In the context of these three overlapping social sites, changing ideas and practices concerning the mentally ill produced broader transformations in the understanding of the relationship between self and society, including conceptions of mind and body, gendered norms of thought and behavior, and the boundary between the inner self and social forces during a time of modernizing change.

Abstract:
Japanese, Euro-Canadian, and Mexican university students listed their personal goals and completed questionnaires on their psychological well-being, health, and interpersonal relationship status at Time 1 (the beginning of the semester) and at Time 2 (the end of the semester). The relationships between the kinds of goals they listed (i.e., approach or avoidance) and their well-being, health, and interpersonal relationship status were assessed to investigate the moderating role of culture among these relationships. The regression analyses revealed marginal and significant interaction effects of culture and avoidance goals on psychological well-being, health, and interpersonal relationship outcomes at Time 2. The results offer support for the hypothesis: Compared with Canadians, Mexicans, and especially Japanese are less likely to experience adverse effects in the areas of well-being, health, and interpersonal relationship associated with avoidance goals.

Ralph, Phillip. "The effectiveness of workplace health promotion within the Victoria Police Force : a pilot study." Thesis, 1992. https://vuir.vu.edu.au/15669/.

Full text
Abstract:
Research conducted within the Victoria Police has previously highlighted problems in the area of employee health and fitness. Officers of law enforcement agencies require a level of health and fitness which will enable them to effectively carry out their daily duties. While much of a police officer's shift is sedentary in nature, intermittent bursts of physical activity require enhanced levels of physical fitness. Despite these physical requirements, after a brief probationary period, police officers are not normally required to undergo any form of medical or fitness assessment for the rest of their careers. A project was conducted within the Victorian Police Force entitled "Operation Physicop" over a twelve month period in a geographical area called 'Y' District (now 'F' and 'G'). The project aimed to measure the effectiveness of workplace health promotion within the Victoria Police Force by measuring changes in several health and fitness parameters as a result of interventions aimed at influencing health behaviour and the workplace environment in a positive way.

Abstract:
Mishima Michiyoshi, a Japanese pioneer of school hygiene, believed that Japanese children experienced precocious puberty, resulting in underdeveloped and inferior physical stature in comparison to European and American children. This analysis of comparative anatomies interpreted the inferiority of the “Japanese” body as embodiment of its diminutive status in politics and civilizations. This chapter shows how intellectuals, government bureaucrats, school hygienists, and pediatric specialists viewed and interpreted children’s bodies and their physical growth, illustrating the complex interactions between ideals of civilization and gendered norms in late nineteenth and early twentieth century Japan.

Abstract:
In the poverty of the immediate postwar, waste of various kinds was considered dangerous and uncivilized, and waste consciousness was seen as a necessity. Whether it was making the most of food or handling garbage properly, waste was to be dealt with carefully for the sake of basic health, hygiene, and sanitation. Waste consciousness thus focused on the acute challenges of day-to-day life and was imperative in ways that it would never be again in the decades that followed. Sparked too in these years, in the context of occupation, was curiosity about rosy visions of an American, middle-class lifestyle of abundance and prosperity even as most Japanese could barely dream of much beyond the struggles of the day to day.
