Abstract:
Therapeutic touch is increasingly recognized as a nursing intervention that complements traditional medical care. Few studies specifically address nursing faculty perspectives on therapeutic touch and whether faculty include therapeutic touch theory or skills content in courses they teach. The purpose of this study was to describe nursing faculty attitudes, knowledge and practice of therapeutic touch. In addition, barriers to practicing or teaching therapeutic touch were identified. A survey (n=23) of nursing faculty teaching undergraduate students was conducted in a university-based nursing program. Faculty were in agreement about incorporating content on the theory of therapeutic touch into nursing curricula. Over 85% of faculty thought that patients could benefit from therapeutic touch and that therapeutic touch holds promise for treatment of disease. Nearly 74% of faculty thought that clinical nursing care should integrate the use of therapeutic touch. Few (30%) had received formal therapeutic touch education. Over half (56.5%) desired more education about therapeutic touch but primarily for the purposes of personal knowledge and teaching nursing students rather than for practicing therapeutic touch. The primary barrier to using therapeutic touch in practice was identified as lack of staff training. The most important perceived barrier to incorporating therapeutic touch practice into nursing curricula was lack of faculty training. Current faculty knowledge of therapeutic touch, in this sample, lingers behind interest, suggesting an environment ready for change. Identifying faculty attitudes, knowledge and practice of therapeutic touch could have an impact on inclusion of therapeutic touch in future nursing curricula. Understanding faculty desire for therapeutic touch education could help in faculty development critical to integrating therapeutic touch in curricula and practice. A nursing college that incorporates therapeutic touch demonstrates commitment to a holistic nursing environment.

Abstract:
This study, using a pre-experimental one group pretest, posttest design sought to describe the perceptions of therapeutic touch (TT) by adults with chronic pain. A sample of 14 adults from an outpatient physical medicine practice and an acute rehabilitation facility were asked to rate their pain and degree of relaxation before and after receiving TT for 5 to 15 minutes. They were also asked open-ended questions to describe their perceptions of the TT experience. Findings from this research indicated that adults' feelings of relaxation post TT were significantly greater than their pre-TT feelings of relaxation (p=<.05), and their perceptions of pain post TT were significantly lower than their pre TT pain perceptions (p=<.05), supporting the research hypotheses. Qualitative phenomenologic data analysis revealed that TT is a multidimensional modality affecting the physiological, psychological, and spiritual aspects of human existence, all of which are severely distressed in adults with chronic pain.

Abstract:
Therapeutic touch has been shown to help reduce pain in several ailments. Cancer patients experience considerable pain during their illness. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of therapeutic touch on pain experienced by cancer patients. The study uses a quasi-experimental design. A sample of sixteen hospitalized cancer patients was selected. The patients were randomly assigned to two groups: the experimental and the placebo control group. The patients assigned to the experimental group received a therapeutic touch treatment on two consecutive days, each day the treatment lasted for a period of 20 to 30 minutes. The patients in the placebo control group received mimicked therapeutic touch for 20 - 30 minutes.. A Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) was used to measure pain before and after the therapeutic touch treatment. At the end of the second day of the study, a Patient Touch Questionnaire (PTQ) was administered to measure the subjects' responses to the therapeutic touch treatment. The hypothesis that Therapeutic vi Touch would significantly decrease pain in cancer patients is supported by the observations made in this study.

Full text
Abstract:
Context: Déjérine-Roussy Syndrome is a rare entity that occurs after an ischemia located in the ventral posterolateral nucleus, and it is characterized by hemiplegia, superficial hemianesthesia, mild hemiataxia and astereognosis, pain on the paretic side and choreoathetosis movements. This unusual condition can be caused by haemorrhage or neoplasm. Thalamic tumors make up less than 5% of all intracranial tumors. The rare clinical presentation of a thalamic tumor is a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge for neurology and neurosurgery practice and generally requires treatment without biopsy. Case report: A 54-years-old man presented complaining of burning and tingling paraesthesias, decreased sensitivity in left dimidium, associated with decreased visual acuity in the left eye. Physical examination showed complete left hemiparesis provided grade 4-, normoreflexia with athetoid movements of the left arm and hand, painful, thermal hemihipoesthesia and epicritic touch, allodyne in the left hemibody, pressure sensitivity present globally, visual campimetry by confrontation with heteronymous hemianopia without changes in the cranial nerves. Magnetic Resonance Imaging of the Skull Base showed an oval mass, with hyposignal in T1 and hypersignal in T2 and FLAIR, with peripheral contrast uptake in the thalamus and nuclei from the right base. The patient showed good clinical-surgical evolution after surgery with Glasgow Outcome Scale 4 and modified Rankin scale 2. Anatomical Pathology confirmed low-grade glioma. Conclusions: Early diagnosis and immediate therapy can delay a fatal outcome or decrease treatment-related morbidity.

Abstract:
Even the mere mention of "transplantation of human body parts" is reason enough to deal with this topic for who knows how many times. Quite simply, we need to discuss the topics discussed from time to time !? Let's get down to explaining some of the "hot" life issues that arise in connection with them. To, perhaps, determine ourselves in a different way according to the existing solutions ... to understand what a strong dynamic has gripped the world we live in, colored our attitudes with a different color, influenced our thoughts about life, its values, altruism, selflessness, charities. the desire to give up something special without thinking that we will get something in return. Transplantation of human organs and tissues for therapeutic purposes has been practiced since the middle of the last century. She started (of course, in a very primitive way) even in ancient India (even today one method of transplantation is called the "Indian method"), over the 16th century (1551). when the first free transplantation of a part of the nose was performed in Italy, in order to develop it into an irreplaceable medical procedure in order to save and prolong human life. Thousands of pages of professional literature, notes, polemical discussions, atypical medical articles, notes on the margins of read journals or books from philosophy, sociology, criminal literature ... about events of this kind, the representatives of the church also took their position. Understanding our view on this complex and very complicated issue requires that more attention be paid to certain solutions on the international scene, especially where there are certain permeations (some agreement but also differences). It's always good to hear a second opinion, because it puts you to think. That is why, in the considerations that follow, we have tried (somewhat more broadly) to answer some of the many and varied questions in which these touch, but often diverge, both from the point of view of the right regulations and from the point of view of medical and judicial practice. times from the perspective of some EU member states (Germany, Poland, presenting the position of the Catholic Church) on the one hand, and in the perspective of other moral, spiritual, cultural and other values - India and Iraq, on the other.

"Development of Medical Device UI-Profiles for Reliable and Safe Human-Machine-Interaction in the Integrated Operating Room of the Future." In Applied Human Factors and Ergonomics Conference. AHFE International, 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.54941/ahfe100507.

Abstract:
Nowadays, the number of technical systems in the operating room increases constantly. This ongoing spread of technology has significant impacts on the individual working process steps of the surgical team. Besides improving the therapeutic quality, these changes may also lead to new human-induced risks for patients, therapists and third parties. In particular, within intra-operative activities, which depend on a safe and fast operation, surgeons and nurses rely on sophisticated and efficient solutions in terms of Human-Machine-Interfaces in order to perform their tasks reliably and assuredly. Therefore, proprietary integrated workstations with a central usage cockpit have been provided for the operating theatre in recent years. At the Chair of Medical Engineering, a surgical integrated workstation with open interfaces for the integration of various medical devices from different manufacturers is currently been developed in the context of the BMBF (Federal Ministry of Education and Research) funded project OR.NET. For this purpose a suitable central user interface (e.g. multi-function foot switch, touch screen, diagnostic monitor, etc.) will be implemented, in a way that the functions of the various (networked) devices can be offered to the user by a central user interface. The design of the Human-Machine-Interface therefore depends on the available input and output devices, the interaction elements of the graphical user interface, the available medical technical equipment, as well as the medical intervention and the particular process steps and the environmental conditions within the operating room. In this work, a concept for the development of a Medical Device User Interface Profile (UIP) will be presented, using the characterization of process-dependent medical device functions for the modular design of a central user interface in the integrated operating room of the future. The use of standardized UI Profiles should allow the manufacturers to integrate their medical devices, respectively the provided functions in the OR.NET network, without disclosing the risk analysis and related confidential know-how or proprietary information. The UI Profiles will allow both, an automated optimized selection and composition of various user interfaces, and implicitly an optimal design of a central GUI with respect to the criteria of usability and an integrated human risk analysis in terms of Human-Machine Interaction. Specific operation process steps within a neurosurgical workflow will be the framework for the validation process of the UI Profiles. Till now, the UIP concept has been tested within the integration of an ultrasound dissector and an OR microscope.

Abstract:
There is no doubt that a natural phenomenon of the magnitude of a pandemic requires a series of tough precautionary measures in order to limit the spread of the disease, to combat the manifestations of the disease by appropriate therapeutic means and to increase the resistance of the population through prophylactic immunisation, namely vaccination. At the same time, caution points out that not all precautionary measures achieve their aim, for at least two reasons: first, it is an extremely versatile micro-organism (like any virus) which can change its genetic configuration through mutations, thus retaining its main characteristics; contagiousness and pathogenicity; second, the preventive measures initially used: quarantine, mask and physical distancing, have proved to be totally outdated and ineffective in today's conditions (economic interdependence, population movement, overpopulation of the planet). The very vaccination on which so much hope was pinned has failed to stem the new pandemic waves (3 and 4), even in countries where the vaccine immunisation rate has exceeded 70%. The three major means of prevention are reviewed which, beyond the immense frustration they have produced in the population, have had a devastating socio-economic impact, and the results of forcible imposition have produced insignificant results. It has been demonstrated once again that the global approach to the pandemic is doomed to failure (witness the successive waves) and that precautionary measures are illusory. Thus, between precaution and prudence, prudence must prevail in order not to replace an existing evil with a greater evil. The only effective measures remain outbreak control with specific means (which epidemiologists know very well) and immunisation by vaccine.
