Abstract:
ABSTRACT Few studies specifically address management of venous thromboembolism (VTE) prophylaxis and bridging anticoagulation therapy in patients undergoing thyroid surgery. A survey about perioperative management of thromboprophylaxis was sent to Australian Endocrine Surgeons. Responses were tabulated and graphed; a p-value of < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Survey responses showed a large broad spectrum of practice regarding thromboprophylaxis, bridging therapy and cessation of anticoagulant medication. While anticoagulant prophylaxis in thyroid surgery appears to be relatively safe, there is a theoretical risk of catastrophic bleeding complications; according to this survey of Australian Endocrine Surgeons, thromboembolic events are uncommon complications of thyroid surgery.

Abstract:
Tonsillectomy, adenoidectomy and myringotomy are the most common surgical procedures undergone by children. Medical opinion regarding the appropriateness of these procedures remains contentious, and considerable resources have been expended in the formulation and distribution of relevant practice guidelines. The impact of this surgery on the child, community and private and public health resources is considerable, yet there has been little examination of surgery rates and trends, or of the characteristics of children who undergo surgery. This thesis addressed five major questions regarding this surgery in New South Wales, Australia. The first three related to population rates: the level of surgery among NSW children, comparability with international rates, trends over time and the effect of guidelines. Comprehensive hospital data between 1981 and 1999 were analysed. Major findings were a higher myringotomy rate in NSW than reported internationally, the short-term effect of guidelines, and a major shift towards children having surgery at a younger age. The remaining questions asked whether children who had surgery differed from other children in their use of health services prior to surgery, and if so, whether their utilization reverted to the norm following surgery. Matched records of a population cohort of 6239 NSW children, born during January 1990, were extracted from Health Insurance Commission data, and their claims for medical services followed retrospectively from birth to 8 years. Children who had privately funded surgery were found to use more medical services than other children, and, most unexpectedly, this did not change following surgery. The results suggest potential non-clinical factors influencing this excess utilization. This is the first population study to examine health service utilisation by these children and it has identified an important new risk factor for surgery.

Surgical technologies since the late 1980s have undergone substantial innovations that have involved ...the adoption of new machines, instruments, and related surgical materials... referred to throughtout this thesis as intra-operative artefacts... typically represents a commitment of substantial financial resources by the hospitals concerned. However, little is documented about the process whereby the decisions are made to adopt new intra-operative artefacts, and no previous research appears to have explored the work-related consequences of new intra-operative artefact adoption within operating theatre services. This thesis explores the reasons why new intra-operative artefacts are adopted, how the decisions are made, who are the participants in the decsion process and what are the expected and actual organisational consequences of new intra-operative artefact adoption.

Abstract:
Health care providers in the United States, United Kingdom and Australia debate the need for expanding the role of podiatrists' to include the surgical care of foot problems. Paradoxically, during a twelve month period from July 1995 to June 1996, Fellows of the Australian College of Podiatric Surgeons (FACPS) performed over 1,500 individual surgical operations on approximately 785 Australians. Few prospective investigations of podiatric surgeon outcomes have been conducted, none of which have taken place in Australia. More particularly, no studies have used valid psychometric instruments to measure the effects of care provided on patients' "health related quality of life". The research contained in this thesis deals with the conceptualisation, development and validation of a new health status instrument: the Foot Health Status Questionnaire. This instrument has been developed with the specific intent of investigating the impact of FACPS on patients' health related quality of life. One hundred and forty-two subjects treated by eleven Fellows for orthopaedic, neurological or integumentary systems diseases of the foot were recruited into a six month long quasi-experimental repeated measures (time series) study. The study identified that the vast majority of subjects (more than 92%) who underwent foot surgery experienced significant improvements' in a range of health related quality of life dimensions and indicated that they would undergo their procedure again. In particular, a MANCOVA analysis demonstrated that subjects' reported reduced levels of foot pain, increased levels of physical function, improved general foot health perception and footwear related quality of life, up to six months after their respective operations. Adverse effects of surgery identified in this study include a significant short-term functional disability for subjects' undergoing orthopaedic correction of foot problems and, in the immediate post operative phase, a significant reduction in social function for all three groups of subjects'. Generic measures of General Health and Vitality, as captured by the Short Form 36 health status instrument, were unaffected by Fellows treatment. This study did not identify any significant short to medium term morbid outcomes. Assessment of patients' satisfaction with surgery one, three and six months postoperatively reflected a general under-reporting of the beneficial effects of foot surgery. These findings support the premise that; specific health related quality of life measures provide significant explanatory power about the outcomes of care compared with the more traditional approach of evaluating patient satisfaction with surgery. In summary, it has been recommended that podiatrists, like other health care professionals, use recognised methods to determine whether their care meets professional standards and to generate evidence to prove that it does. This research contributes to meeting this important public health need.

Full text
Abstract:
Multi-organ procurement surgical procedures are undertaken on donors who have consented at the time of their death to donate multiple organs, body parts or tissues. These donors fulfil the criteria for donation by either being certified as brain dead as a result of an injury or via a donation after cardiac death (DCD) pathway. Worldwide multi-organ procurement surgery has made a huge impact in both extending and enhancing the quality of life for recipient patients who have received organs from donors. Perioperative nurses working in surgical teams play a vital role in procuring organs from both paediatric and adult cadaver organ donors. The nature of the surgical procedure used for procuring organs, the urgency of coordinating surgical procurement teams and the removal of organs for urgent transplantation to awaiting recipients is fast paced and technical. The experience has been reported to evoke emotions which traumatically impact on perioperative nurses when assisting in these surgical procedures. There is currently a dearth of research examining the experiences of Australian perioperative nurses assisting within multi-organ procurement surgery.The objective of this study was to describe and gain a greater understanding of the personal experiences nurses encountered as part of their professional roles when involved in these surgical procedures. This thesis presents the substantive theory which has used a grounded theory methodology to describe the experiences of 35 perioperative nurses working within multi-organ procurement surgical teams from metropolitan, regional and rural hospitals in both New South Wales and Western Australia. The qualitative data from in-depth interviews were simultaneously collected and analysed to develop the substantive theory. The study findings draw attention to the complexities that exist for perioperative nurses to participate in these surgical procedures.The basic social psychological problem of hiding behind a mask was found to be a fundamental shared concern that the majority of perioperative nurses in this study faced when participating in multi-organ procurement surgery. The problem of hiding behind a mask was comprised of three stages: being unprepared, being overwhelmed and hiding the burden. The first stage, conceptualised as being unprepared, consisted of not knowing what to expect during the surgical procedure when they lacked prior knowledge and experience and felt unprepared for being exposed to death by operating on a cadaver donor and managing DCD donors within the operating room. Moreover participants were unprepared for witnessing the circumstances of each donor patient in addition to dealing with the grieving family.During the second stage participants described being overwhelmed with fears of facilitating death of the donor when they lacked understanding of the process of brain death diagnosis. They reported being overwhelmed at also having to witness the graphic nature of the procurement process and feeling overwhelmed by their own emotional responses to the donor’s death which they tried to hide and contain from their work colleagues through hiding behind a mask. Lastly the third stage of hiding behind a mask was identified as hiding the burden where participants were forced to contain their own personal beliefs and attitudes towards these surgical procedures whilst undertaking their professional roles. They reported hiding behind a mask when suppressing personal beliefs, hiding an objection to participate, not disclosing their own views or attitudes on death and spiritual ‘afterlife’ beliefs and lastly hiding not being able to cope when participating in these surgical procedures. The majority of the participants in this study articulated that various conditions influenced and directly contributed towards their experiences of hiding behind a mask. Three conditions were identified and these were reported as: work conditions, levels of knowledge and experience and levels of support.In an attempt to overcome the problem of hiding behind a mask, the data revealed that participants had to reach a turning point which was labelled as taking control. The turning point of taking control was described by participants as taking control of their own internal turmoil and rationalising the situation they were placed in whilst also changing their attitudes and thoughts towards their participation in the procedure. Once they had passed through the turning point of taking control participants were able to move beyond this point into the basic social psychological process of finding meaning.The basic social psychological process of finding meaning comprised of three stages: pushing through; preserving self and coming to terms. The first stage of finding meaning was conceptualised as pushing through. For many of the study participants in pushing through they dissociated themselves from their internal feelings and conflicts by focusing on the importance of their role and professional contributions towards the surgical procedure. The second stage of the basic social psychological process of finding meaning was conceptualised as preserving self, this saw participants implement strategies to protect themselves from both the traumatic experiences of procurement surgery and the tragic circumstances of the donors they came in contact with. Three aspects of preserving self were identified: being resilient; nurse self care and seeking personal support. The third and final stage of the basic social psychological process of finding meaning was conceptualised as coming to terms. During this stage participants were able to gain some understanding from their experiences by placing their participation role into perspective, honouring the donation wish and assisting in preserving life for the greater good when focusing on the needs of recipient patients requiring the organs they were assisting to procure. Conditions influencing the basic social psychological process of finding meaning encompassed: work conditions, levels of knowledge and experience and levels of support. Participants articulated these as positive influencing conditions such as a changing work environment, feeling less isolated and being supported by their work organisations.Throughout this thesis pertinent scientific literature has been woven into the research findings to illustrate the relevance of the newly developed theory and to place the substantive theory within the context of other findings and related theories to further support the trustworthiness of the current study data and the newly developed theory. The findings detailed in the substantive theory illustrate new contributions to the knowledge and understanding of the Australian perioperative nurses experiences when undertaking multi-organ procurement surgical procedures which will have relevance both nationally and internationally. The findings have implications and recommendations directed towards perioperative nurses, health services, perioperative organisations, government and policy makers.

Abstract:
Although the number of infectious agents capable of being transmitted through blood and blood products is vast, only a few cause problems in recipients of a magnitude which warrants the need for screening tests. The most important agents are Hepatitis B Virus (HBV), Hepatitis non-A,non-B (HNANB) - agents causing posttransfusion hepatitis (PTH) and the human immundeficiency viruses (HIV) responsible for transfusion associated AIDS (TAA).PTH: Prospective studies in open-heart-surgery patients demonstrated a high prevalence (8-17%) *in Spain, Italy, the United States and Israel whereas low percentages (2-5%) were observed in Australia, Finland and West-Germany. Among haemophiliacs acute and chronic hepatitis is a rather frequent complication. Serologic markers of HBV infection have been observed in the majority of patients. Since HBsAg screening has been introduced most cases of PTH (>90%) are due to infection with HNANB-agents. For this type of hepatitis no specific assay exists. It has been suggested that surrogate tests (ALT, anti-HBc screening) might serve as interim screening measure. In prospective studies in the USA a correlation has been observed between donor ALT and recipient hepatitis, but not more than 30% of PTH can be prevented at a loss of 1,5 to 3,0% of the donor population. Similar data have been reported when blood donors were screened for anti-HBc. There was a significantly higher incidence of PTH in recipients receiving at least one unit of anti HBc positive blood. This was recently confirmed in a study in which patients received blood with ALT-levels below 30 IU/ml. The incidence of HNANB was 2,1% after transfusion with anti HBc negative blood whereas 10,1% developed HNANB when anti HB positive blood was transfused (P=< 0.0001). However, these two markers (ALT, anti HBc) do not identify the same NANB carrier population. - ALT screening and testing for anti-HBc have been recently instituted in the USA as “surrogate tests” for detecting HNANB carriers.TAA: Among the total number of AIDS cases there ist a small percentage caused by transfusion of blood and blood products. In the USA approximately 2% of TAA have been reported, 1 % of AIDS patients are haemophiliacs but the majority of haemophiliacs are HIV-antibody positive. According to a survey of the Council of Europe (March 1986) the percentages of HIV positive European haemophiliacs varies between 4 to 8% (Belgium, Norway) and 30 to 60% in other European countries. The number of TAA-cases is around 1%, AIDS among European haemophiliacs has been observed up to 5% of the total AIDS cases. - Screening for HIV antibodies in blood donors was introduced in most European countries and the USA in early summer 1985, but several thousands of recipients of HIV positive blood (issued before) are now virus carriers. This has been confirmed in “look back” programmes: A substantial number of recipient (50 to 90%) has been found to be HIV positive.-A major disadvantage of the HIV antibody test is the fact that antibodies appear several weeks after infection. The gap between infection and detecting HIV antibodies may be reduced by an antigen test, which recognizes the HIV infection as early as two weeks after infection. - The recent detection of HIV 2 implies the necessity of developing tests for the identification of variants of HIV.

Abstract:
RESUMO A abordagem sistêmica é um processo interdisciplinar, cujo princípio primordial é compreender a interdependência recíproca e relações de todas as áreas e da necessidade de sua integração, permitindo maior aproximação entre os seus limites de estudo. Nesse contexto o olhar sistêmico, da ergonomia, sobretudo no que se refere à segurança, ao conforto e à eficácia de uso, de funcionalidade e de operacionalidade dos objetos, considerando todos os produtos ou sistemas de produtos, como sistema de uso, desde os mais simples aos mais complexos ou sistêmicos, tem como objetivo adequá-los aos seres humanos, tendo em vista as atividades e tarefas exercidas por eles. No que se refere ao design funcional, os conhecimentos da ergonomia, nessa visão sistêmica, relativos à sua metodologia de projeto, são absolutamente necessários, e a sua aplicação aponta a melhor adequação dos produtos aos seus usuários. Como é o caso do vestuário feminino funcional, sobretudo no que se refere a proteção das mamas, que são peças convencionais que necessitam de um correto dimensionamento e especificação dos tecidos e de outros materiais. É um tipo de vestuário que apresenta funcionalidade diversa, como para a proteção física, o aumento do volume da mama, enchimento no bojo de pano, de água, de óleo, estruturado com arame, etc.; para amamentação (sutiã que se abre na frente, em parte ou totalmente); para o design inclusivo (pessoas com deficiência e mobilidade reduzida, no caso de mamas com prótese ou órtese) facilitando com fechamentos e aberturas colocadas em peças de roupas difíceis de manusear, roupas confortáveis e fáceis de vestir. São peças usadas por pessoas com biótipos e percentis antropométricos variáveis e com características corporais que mudam significativamente nas passagens para a adolescência, idade adulta e idosa. As mudanças corporais apresentam diferenças significativas em termos de volume das mamas, nas quais as soluções ergonômicas por uma abordagem sistêmicas que se evidencia mais para a complexidade de uso, são as mais necessárias em termos de atributos como, segurança, conforto, comodidade corporal, facilidade do vestir, funcionalidade, além da estética. Esta pesquisa, embora exploratória e descritiva, não isenta de desafios, tem por objetivo, por meio de dados e informações ergonômicas sistêmicas contribuir com o design funcional, de modo a oferecer subsídios para a confecção de roupas funcionais ou tecnologia vestível, com os atributos citados, respeitando a diversidade e inclusão das pessoas em todas as fases de sua vida, atendendo assim os princípios formais do design.

Abstract:
Abstract A wave energy converter (WEC) similar to the CETO system developed by Carnegie Clean Energy is considered for design optimisation. This WEC is able to absorb power from heave, surge and pitch motion modes, making the optimisation problem nontrivial. The WEC dynamics is simulated using the spectral-domain model taking into account hydrodynamic forces, viscous drag, and power take-off forces. The design parameters for optimisation include the buoy radius, buoy height, tether inclination angles, and control variables (damping and stiffness). The WEC design is optimised for the wave climate at Albany test site in Western Australia considering unidirectional irregular waves. Two objective functions are considered: (i) maximisation of the annual average power output, and (ii) minimisation of the levelised cost of energy (LCoE) for a given sea site. The LCoE calculation is approximated as a ratio of the produced energy to the significant mass of the system that includes the mass of the buoy and anchor system. Six different heuristic optimisation methods are applied in order to evaluate and compare the performance of the best known evolutionary algorithms, a swarm intelligence technique and a numerical optimisation approach. The results demonstrate that if we are interested in maximising energy production without taking into account the cost of manufacturing such a system, the buoy should be built as large as possible (20 m radius and 30 m height). However, if we want the system that produces cheap energy, then the radius of the buoy should be approximately 11–14 m while the height should be as low as possible. These results coincide with the overall design that Carnegie Clean Energy has selected for its CETO 6 multi-moored unit. However, it should be noted that this study is not informed by them, so this can be seen as an independent validation of the design choices.
