Abstract:
The clinical management of severe acute pancreatitis has improved significantly in the last decade, mainly due to advances in supportive critical care. However, it still poses formidable problems to the clinician, due to lack of uniformity in early disease definition, absence of disease specific treatment and paucity of evidence base for management of complications. This thesis attempts to address these problems using inter-related studies based on clinical (cohort study and randomised control trial), experimental and data-analysis methodologies.

Abstract:
Traumatic spinal cord injury (TSCI) is a devastating condition. Most patients remain paralysed or wheelchair bound. After TSCI the injured cord swells and is compressed against the dura. My supervisors showed that, after TSCI, intraspinal pressure (ISP) rises and spinal cord perfusion pressure (SCPP) falls, leading to decreased spinal cord blood flow at the injury site. ISP can be monitored, but this is an invasive procedure that requires inserting a pressure probe at the injury site. My supervisors also showed that monitoring ISP and SCPP is feasible and helps guide management of TSCI patient

Abstract:
The overarching aim of this PhD thesis is to develop methods, which will ultimately improve the management of patients with acute kidney injury (AKI). Over the years one inherent problem in both diagnosing AKI clinically and reviewing and comparing studies published in the literature has been the numerous definitions used to define AKI. 87 With now accepted definitions of AKI, the first question raised was to determine the true impact of AKI, in terms of incidence and outcomes, for both the patient (morbidity and mortality) and the healthcare economy.

Abstract:
This ethnographic study explores how children's pain is managed in the context of a general paediatric ward. Fieldwork was conducted on one ward over a period of 11 months. Data were collected using observations and informal interviews. Children (n=5) aged 8-16 years, their mothers (n=4) and nurses (n=5) participated in in-depth interviews exploring understandings and experiences of pain and pain management. A symbolic interactionist stance was taken, using the key concepts of pain work and the ceremonial order of the ward. In the context of the ward, pain is a eo-constructed phenomenon, incor

Abstract:
Background. Acute appendicitis (“appendicitis”) is one of the most common abdominal surgical emergencies worldwide. In spite of this, the diagnostic pathways are highly variable across countries, between centres and physicians. This has implications for the use of resources, exposure of patients to ionising radiation and patient outcome. The aim of this thesis is to construct and validate a diagnostic appendicitis score, to evaluate new inflammatory markers for inclusion in the score, and explore the effect of implementing a structured management algorithm for patients with suspected appendici

Every year, millions of Americans suffer from either chronic or acute pain that results in tremendous healthcare cost, rehabilitation, and loss of work productivity. Pain is an unpleasant sensation associated with sensory and emotional experiences that can cause potential or actual tissue damage.

The purpose of this project was to determine if there was a difference in pain scores following pharmacological interventions and the use of guided imagery among postoperative same day surgical

Severe Acute Pancreatitis (SAP) is the rapid onset of inflammation within the pancreatic organ. Unlike the milder form of this illness, SAP is associated with a high mortality and morbidity. No significant reduction in the outcomes of this disease has been made since the implementation of organ supportive management over two decades ago. This is due to difficulties in distinguishing between the milder form of the disease in the early period of the onset of symptoms when clinical intervention is most likely to prevent complications and death.

Pilot studies and qualitative analysis led to the development of questionnaires which sought to measure nurse-client interactions across four dimensions: 1) The content of what the nurse said to the client; 2) The length of time the nurse spent with the client; 3) The emotional tone of the response; and 4) Th
