Abstract:

Twenty-seven health care providers from three nursing homes were interviewed about the autonomy of stroke patients in rehabilitation wards. Data were analysed using the grounded theory method for concept development recommended by Strauss and Corbin. The core category ‘changing autonomy’ was developed, which identifies the process of stroke patients regaining their autonomy (dimensions: self-determination, independence and self-care), and the factors affecting this process (conditions (i.e. circumstances) and strategies of patients; strategies of care providers and families; and the nursing home). Teamwork on increasing patient autonomy is recommended, which can be stimulated by multidisciplinary guidelines and education, and by co-ordination of the process of changing autonomy.

Abstract:

This study showed, in line with self-determination theory, that of the six central quality dimensions of primary health care (access to care, continuity of care, diabetes counseling, autonomy support from one’s physician, trust, patient-centered care), autonomy support from one’s physician was most strongly associated with autonomous motivation (self-regulation) for effective diabetes self-management among patients with type 2 diabetes ( n = 2866). However, overall support for diabetes care received from friends, family members, other patients with diabetes, and health care professionals may even play a greater role.

Abstract:

This is a qualitative study of an exploratory nature that aims to identify the strategies used by nurses in primary care, in situations involving nursing care, to promote self-esteem, autonomy and self-care practices for people with chronic wounds. The study included eight nurses. Data were collected by means of a focus group in July 2012. The thematic analysis technique was used to identify the following categories: Nursing care from the perspective of comprehensiveness; Recovering support networks: family and social movements; Multidisciplinary work; Autonomy and nurses. It was concluded that the presented strategies value, above all, the social environment of these individuals, the family, religion and the nurse's approximation to the realities of people with chronic wounds.

Abstract:

This is a qualitative descriptive study with the aim to analyze the self-care of elderly cancer patients undergoing outpatient treatment, from the perspective of their autonomy. Fifteen elderly individuals undergoing treatment in a blood-oncology outpatient center of a university hospital participated in the research. Data were collected with semi-structured interviews conducted in 2010. Independence and ability for self-care by the elderly patients were evaluated using the Katz and Lawton scales. The data collected were submitted to thematic analysis. Four categories were identified: manifestations of self-care of elderly cancer patients; care in the family and its dynamics; adaptation to the limitations of the disease; and living with finiteness. In conclusion, the autonomy for self-care of the elderly patients is manifested in the concern with diet, knowing their bodies' limits, the changes imposed by living with cancer and family support.

Abstract:

Abstract The objectives of current study are to clarify the structure of practice respecting the autonomy of the frail elderly under the Long-Term Care Insurance system in Japan and to discuss the related factors to the practice. The mailed self-administered questionnaire survey was conducted on 1398 care managers who working in In-Home Long-Term Care Support Providers in A City in Osaka with the condition that “office with multiple care managers engaged and one care manager with more than 5 years’ experience”. The response rate was 51.0% (713persons) and no missing data 615 (44.0%) was analyzed. Analysis was carried out using Mplus.ver8. The structure of practice respecting the autonomy of the frail elderly and the rerated factors were examined as a causal model using structural equation modeling. As the result, it was confirmed the goodness of fit to the data (RMSEA=0.049, CFI=0.927). By the confirmatory factor analysis, the care manager’s practice respecting the autonomy of the elderly was confirmed associating with three-factors structure; (1)data collection and assessment, (2) strength perspective and (3) professional relationship. Furthermore the practice was significantly affected by self-esteem of care-managers performance (β=0.494) and self-reflection to own work (β=0.269). In conclusion, the current study supported the hypothetical consideration in which self-esteem and self-reflection in care manager’s practice significantly affected the practice respecting the autonomy of the frail elderly.

Abstract:

Youth in foster care who experience disabilities face many challenges as they transition out of foster care and into adulthood. In order to assist these youth, it is crucial to understand factors that may impact their self-determination, which research links to positive transition outcomes for youth with disabilities (Wehmeyer, Palmer, Agran, Mithaug, & Martin, 2000). While much of the existing research on the correlates and outcomes of self-determination focuses on young people with disabilities overall, and little is known about whether factors such as abuse, family stressors and extended length of time in care, and frequent placement changes influence self-determination. Exploring predictors of self-determination in youth with disabilities in foster care can be beneficial to researchers and child welfare practitioners who seek to identify effective approaches for helping youth accomplish successful transitions into adulthood. This dissertation examined the extent to which physical and sexual abuse and family stressors, such as unemployment, domestic violence, and homelessness prior to entering care; as well as foster care placement instability and total length of time in care, impact a youth's self-determination. In addition, the influence of demographic features such as race and gender on these associations was examined. Increased understanding of factors that contribute to self-determination can facilitate targeted interventions and services that enhance the lives of youth as they exit out of the foster care system and into adulthood. Overall, the findings did not reveal significant associations between self-determination and physical and sexual abuse, family stressors, length of time in foster care or number of placement moves. Post hoc exploratory analysis, however, detected other significant relationships. For example, above and beyond the main effect association of length of time in care, youth who experienced physical abuse and stayed in care for long periods of time demonstrated higher levels of autonomy. Likewise, youth with a greater number of family stressors in their family of origin, and who experienced longer stays in foster care, also demonstrated significantly higher levels of autonomy above and beyond the main effects of family stressors. These relationships speak to the resiliency and the varying nature of self-determination.

Abstract:

The number of older persons is growing at a shocking rate. In spite of this reality, the South African health care sector does not prioritise older persons, causing their health to be poorly managed. Not only does poor health management affect the health of the older person, but also economic factors. This causes a high burden on the public health sector of South Africa, with specific reference to the Primary Health Care (PHC) clinics. PHC clinics in this country are not only overcrowded due to staff shortages, but also owing to the rapidly ageing population and the large number of younger persons affected by the high unemployment rate of South Africa. The above-mentioned factors keep the professional nurses in the clinic from spending time on proper physical examinations and provision of health education to older persons. This causes older persons to lack knowledge regarding self-care, potentially leading to unintentional self-neglect, which decreases their quality of life. Studies conducted on older persons concluded that the older person wants to be involved in health promotion, but needs the necessary knowledge to take care of him- or herself. Therefore, the researcher's overarching aim with this study was to develop guidelines to facilitate self-care amongst older persons. Such guidelines aim at constituting an indirect approach to promote the health of the older person. Health education on self-care should be conducted in self-care support groups, since community experience teaches that some older persons in the community do not apply self-care skills learned without some form of support. The aim with these guidelines is to decrease unintentional self-neglect by empowering the older person to make autonomous decisions regarding self-care, in order to increase quality of life. RESEARCH AIM AND OBJECTIVES In order to reach the overarching aim of this study, which comprises the development of guidelines to facilitate self-care amongst the older persons in the Potchefstroom district, the study firstly includes a literature review to understand self-care and related constructs from a theoretical perspective. Secondly, the Appraisal of self-care agency scale-A (ASA-A) and Exercise of self-care agency scale (ESCA) were used as questionnaires to assess the self-care of the selected older persons. Lastly, after determining the self-care of the older persons, the study investigates the relationship between these two questionnaires through correlational analysis. RESEARCH DESIGN A quantitative, descriptive, correlational and contextual design was used in this study to .reach the overarching aim and respective objectives. RESEARCH METHOD The researcher firstly conducted a literature review to understand self-care and related constructs. Thereafter the researcher employed two structured questionnaires, the ASA-A and ESCA, were employed to collect data. The questionnaires were developed to measure self-care (self-care is determined by measuring the self-care agency). These questionnaires were based on Dorothea OrenYs self-care deficit theory of nursing, the same theory that this research study is based on. Minor adaptations were made to both the questionnaires prior to administration to the predominantly Setswana-speaking older population. The study formed part of the larger Multinational Prospective Urban and Rural Epidemiological study (PURE-SA study - ethical approval number 04M10). All the older persons identified in the peri-urban population of the PURE-SA study living in the Potchefstroom district and who were willing to participate were included in the sample. Trained fieldworkers assisted the researcher in data collection. Of the 198 older persons, 192 participated, accumulating to a 98% response rate. Lastly the researcher correlated the ASA-A and ESCA to determine their relationship as an added benefit to this research study. RESULTS The findings indicate that although the studied older population was of a lower socio-economic status with a lower literacy level, their overall self-care was relatively good. Seven self-care deficits were identified namely time management skills affecting self-care, energy deficit affecting self-care, sleep deprivation, lack of knowledge and ability to acquire knowledge with regard to health and self-care, lack of a rest, exercise and self-care programme, self-care deficit caused by physical deterioration and, lastly, the lack of performance of activities to prevent/decrease self-care deficits. These identified self-care deficits supported the development of guidelines to facilitate self-care amongst older persons, together with Menon's psychological health empowerment model, as well as an in-depth literature review on self-care and related constructs to understand self-care from a theoretical perspective. Furthermore, the study compared the ASA-A and ESCA questionnaires to determine the relationship between these questionnaires. The two questionnaires had a very good correlation with each other, conclusion that either of these two questionnaires could be used to measure self-care of a population.

Abstract:

Estudo observacional quantitativo longitudinal prospectivo em idosos e seus cuidadores, de ambos os sexos, internados na enfermaria de geriatria de um hospital-escola, com coleta de dados no período de agosto de 2013 a março de 2014. Objetivo: Avaliar a condição funcional subjetiva e objetiva de idosos internados em uma enfermaria geriátrica; entre os relatos de desempenho no autocuidado e suas necessidades de ajuda. Método: avaliações subjetivas e objetiva, usando o instrumento Performance test of Activities of Daily Living (PADL), com 16 tarefas associado a três itens da Escala de Atividades Instrumentais de Vida Diária (AIVD). Resultados: o sexo feminino predominou dentre os idosos (32 - 58,2%) e os cuidadores (46 - 83,6%); a idade dos clientes variou entre 64 e 99 (x=80) anos, e dos cuidadores entre 37 e 84 anos (x=58,7a); a escolaridade básica foi mais frequente entre os idosos (36 - 65,4%) e a superior (18 - 32,7%) para os cuidadores; quanto ao parentesco dos cuidadores, 30 (54,4%) eram filhas e 12 (21,5%) esposas. Para comparar as funcionalidades subjetivas e objetiva no desempenho do autocuidado, calculou-se o Índice de Concordância (Ind.Con%), que variou de 62 a 93%, com Kappa oscilando entre 0,20 e 0,59. Tanto os idosos como os cuidadores referiram desempenhar as tarefas sem ou com ajuda, porém, na avaliação objetiva, detectou-se maior necessidade de ajuda ou a incapacidade da realização da tarefa. Saliente-se que os idosos se autoavaliaram um pouco melhor que os seus cuidadores. Discussão: Nas avaliações subjetivas idosos e subjetivas cuidadores, em comparação com a objetiva, as respostas dos idosos para o autocuidado foram confirmadas na avaliação objetiva e com os relatos reportados subjetivamente pelos cuidadores. Verificou que o Nível de funcionalidade nos idosos, na maioria foi o nível 3 (fazer sem ajuda) para as atividades de vida diária PADL e atividades instrumentais AIVD. Os relatos subjetivos idosos em comparação com a avaliação objetiva podem apresentar que alguns idosos fazem as atividades sem ajuda, outros com ajuda e aqueles que não fazem as tarefas sozinhos, e, assim, necessitaram de algum tipo de ajuda. As informações subjetivas reportadas pelos cuidadores foram discordantes em comparações com a avaliação objetiva em alguns itens das escalas. Os idosos tendem a se avaliar melhor que seus cuidadores. Os cuidadores reportam que os idosos conseguem realizar a tarefa, mas, na avaliação objetiva, alguns não fazem. Conclusões: Há importantes diferenças entre as capacidades funcionais relatadas pelo próprio idoso e seus cuidadores quando comparadas com a observação direta destas tarefas pelo enfermeiro, o que indica a necessidade de basear as ações e os cuidados muito mais na avaliação direta do que exclusivamente nos relatos dos clientes e de seus cuidadores
Prospective, longitudinal quantitative study in elderly people and their proxies, of both genders, admitted at a geriatric ward of a school hospital, whose data collection was August 2013 to March 2014. Objective: to evaluate subjective and objective functional condition of elderly people admitted at a geriatric ward; among the reports of self care performance and their needs for help. Method: subjective and objective evaluations using the instrument Performance test of Activities of Daily Living (PADL), with 16 tasks associated to 3 items of Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADL). Results: Female gender was predominant among the elderly (32 - 58.2%) and the proxies (46 - 83.6%); clients´ age varied between 64 and 99 (x=80) years old and their proxies between 37 and 84 years old (x=58.7y); basic education was more frequent among the elderly (36 - 65.4%) and higher (18 - 32.7%) for their proxies. Regarding the family connection of proxies, 30 (54.4%) were daughters and 12 (21.5%) wives. In order to compare the subjective and objective functionalities to perform self care, it was calculated the Concordance Index (CI), which varied from 62 to 93%, whose Kappa was between 0.20 and 0.59. Both elderly people and their proxies referred performing tasks with or without help. However, on the objective evaluation it was detected greater need for help or incapability to perform a task. It must be highlighted that elderly people evaluated themselves a little better than their proxies. Discussion: elderly subjective and proxy subjective evaluations in comparison to objective ones, elderly responses for self care were confirmed in objective evaluation and the reports provided subjectively by their proxies. It was verified that the functionality level of elderly people in majority was level 3 (do it without help) for PADL daily life activities and IADL instrumental activities. Elderly subjective reports in comparison to objective evaluation, it can be seen that some elderly people perform their activities without help, others with help and the ones who don´t perform tasks by themselves required some kind of help. Subjective information reported by proxies was discordant in comparison to objective evaluation in some items of the instruments. Elderly people are more prone to evaluate themselves better than their proxies. Proxies reported that elderly people can perform their tasks, but in the objective evaluation it was not observed. Conclusions: there are important differences between the functional capacities reported by elderly themselves and their proxies when compared to the direct observation of these tasks by the nurse, which points to the need of actions and care more focused on the direct evaluation rather than reports by clients and their proxies

Resumo: Este estudo tem como objetivo analisar o processo de coconstrução da autonomia no cuidado em diabetes mellitus, através das reflexões de pessoas com diabetes e profissionais de saúde de um ambulatório público especializado, localizado em um município de médio porte, no estado de SC, através de uma pesquisa qualitativa. Os referenciais teóricos buscaram ampliar o entendimento sobre temas e contextos de vida como autonomia, doenças crônicas, diabetes, adoecimento, viver com diabetes, clínica do sujeito, autocuidado, cuidado, trabalho em saúde, coconstrução e cogestão. Os dados foram coletados através de entrevistas individuais semiestruturadas com as pessoas com diabetes e os profissionais de saúde deste ambulatório, além da realização de uma Roda de Conversa com os profissionais de saúde sobre as falas dos usuários nas entrevistas. As falas foram transcritas e analisadas através dos referenciais da análise de conteúdo, especificamente pela análise temática (Bardin apud Minayo, 2014), destacando-se a compreensão sobre como as pessoas com diabetes e profissionais de saúde entendem o processo de coconstrução da autonomia das pessoas com diabetes, reforçando o protagonismo dos sujeitos e privilegiando meios que possam levar ao cuidado integral e singular. A escuta, a clínica ampliada e a cogestão se afirmam como importantes estratégias para compreender o processo de vivência com diabetes e possibilita perceber o outro com um sujeito singular, funcionando como disparador da criação de estratégias compartilhadas entre adoecidos e profissionais de saúde, na construção da autonomia do cuidado, onde a doença faz parte da vida e não a vida parte da doença
Abstract: This study aims to analyze the process of co-construction of autonomy in care in diabetes mellitus, through the reflections of people with diabetes and health professionals from a specialized public clinic, located in a medium-sized municipality in the state of SC, through a qualitative research. Theoretical frameworks attempted to increase the understanding of issues and contexts of life as autonomy, chronic diseases, diabetes, illness, living with diabetes, the subject of clinical, self-care, care, health work, co-construction and co-management. Data were collected through individual semi-structured interviews with people with diabetes and healthcare professionals of this clinic, in addition to holding a Chat wheel with health professionals about the speeches of the users in the interviews. The discussions were transcribed and analyzed through content analysis of reference, specifically the thematic analysis (Bardin apud Minayo, 2014), highlighting the understanding of how people with diabetes and healthcare professionals understand the co-construction process of people's autonomy with diabetes, reinforcing the role of the subject and focusing means that can lead to the full and meticulous care. Listening states, the clinic expanded and the co-management if claim as important strategy to understand the process of living with diabetes and allows perceive the other with a singular subject, functioning as trigger the creation of strategies shared between diseased and health professionals in the construction of autonomy of care, where the disease is part of life and not the life of the disease

Abstract:

Syftet med den här kvalitativa intervjustudien var att undersöka hur personal i ett omsorgsföretag ser på sig själva och sitt arbete i relation till kompetens, samhörighet och autonomi. Dessa tre begrepp är centrala i Self-determination theory. Resultatet visade att samhörigheten främjades av ett nära samarbete med kollegor och genom många gemensamma aktiviteter, både på arbetstid och utanför. Det främsta hindret för att uppleva samhörighet var om arbetsgruppen strävade åt olika håll eller om det uppstod konflikter i samspelet. Kompetens innebar för respondenterna att känna sig trygga i sitt bemötande av brukarna och att de visste vad de skulle göra i olika situationer. Även om de uttryckte en viss saknad av kunskap inför utagerande- och självskadebeteende så upplevdes ändå de lagar och regler som styrde verksamheten vara det som skapade störst osäkerhet och kunde vara hindrade för känslan av att uppleva sig kompetent. Resultatet visade också att respondenterna, trots att verksamheten till stor del styrdes av lagar och regler, upplevde en känsla av autonomi så länge de fick vara delaktiga i att planera och organisera arbetsuppgifternas utformning.
The main objective of this qualitative interview study was to examine how personnel elemployed at a company providing social care services, view themselves and their work in relation to competence, relatedness and autonomy. These three concepts are an essential part of Self-Determination Theory. The result showed that relatedness was promoted by close cooperation between colleagues and by frequent common activities during the workday, but also by activities with colleagues outside work. Main obstacles to relatedness appeared when the staff were striving in different directions and when conflicts emerged. The respondents felt competent in interaction with the clients and when it was clearly stated how they were supposed to act in specific situations. The respondents expressed the need for more of knowledge of self-harming behavior and similar behaviors of acting out. However, the main obstacle to feeling competent was insecurity of what laws and regulations that govern their workplace. Despite the fact that laws and regulations govern a large part of their work, the respondents expressed that they felt reasonable autonomous as long as they participated in the planning and organization of different tasks.

Abstract:

Objective: Transfer from pediatric care into the adult health care system is known to be a vulnerable phase in the lives of youth with special health care needs (YSHCN). Recommendations from the literature favor assessment of transition readiness rather than simply pass over YSHCN from pediatric to adult-centered care by the age of 18. Nevertheless, no validated and disease neutral assessment instrument in German exists to date. Hence, our aim was to cross-culturally adapt and to pilot-test a German version of the Transition Readiness Assessment Questionnaire (TRAQ 5.0). We wanted to provide a tool that can be applied broadly during the health care transition (HCT) process of YSHCN. Methods: The development included translating and adapting TRAQ 5.0 to German and conducting a pilot-study with 172 YSHCN between the ages of 14 and 23. Results: Cross-cultural adaptation resulted in the TRAQ-GV-15. Exploratory factor analysis led to a 3 factor-structure. Internal consistency for the overall score was good with a Cronbach’s alpha of 0.82. Age, in contrast to sex, had a significant effect on the TRAQ scoring. The administration of the TRAQ-GV-15 was well received and demonstrated good feasibility. Conclusion: The TRAQ-GV-15 is an easily applicable and clinically usable instrument for assessing transition readiness in German speaking YSHCN prior to HCT.

Abstract:

Bakgrund: Demenssjukdom är en växande folksjukdom som ställer höga krav på sjuksköterskekåren att kunna erbjuda adekvat omvårdnad. Däribland ingår personcentrerad omvårdnad som bland annat syftar till att bejaka patientens rätt till autonomi. Detta trots att demenssjukdom är en sjukdom som innebär kognitiv nedsättning vilket försvårar möjligheten att delta i beslutsfattande kring den egna omvårdnaden för personer med demenssjukdom.Syfte: Syftet med denna studie är att sammanställa litteratur om sjuksköterskors erfarenheter av autonomi hos personer med demenssjukdom.Metod: En litteratursökning gjordes på databaser. Materialet bearbetades enligt Danielssons innehållsanalys.Resultat: Resultatet i denna litteraturstudie baseras på tio vetenskapliga kvalitativa studier. Analysen av dessa tio studier visade följande gemensamma ämnen relevanta för frågeställningen; Lära känna personen och Att främja personens delaktighet samt tillhörande underkategorier.Konklusion: Det är av vikt för sjuksköterskor att lära känna personen bakom demenssjukdomen samt behärska kommunikation med och tolkning av personer med demenssjukdom, samt kunna samverka med andra yrkesgrupper och anhöriga i en effektiv organisation för att bevara och främja autonomi hos personer med demenssjukdom.

Abstract:

This chapter applies the concept of physical activity to palliative care across settings. A physical activity program for each patient should be presented at the time of diagnosis and extend to end-of-life care. Even when it is not possible to cure or reverse a disease process, or to restore a previous level of functioning and independence, a rehabilitative approach to nursing care adds quality to the experience of living until life’s completion. The language of rehabilitation nursing is a language shared with those who practice palliative care. Feelings of self-confidence, independence, hope, human dignity, and autonomy are all influenced by an individually tailored program of rehabilitation.

Abstract:

Chapter 8 provides examples of programs developed to optimize retention in HIV care that are based on principles of motivational interviewing (MI). Two programs are highlighted: iEngage, a recently evaluated intervention to promote early retention in HIV-care as part of a multi-site clinical trial, and 60-Mintues for Health, a piloted intervention approach for patients tenuously engaged in HIV-care. These programs, their theoretical underpinnings, and use of MI offer some importance insights about mobilizing MI in the context of HIV care. Consistent with MI, both programs are founded on patients’ autonomy and self-determination, with the interventionist acting as a guide to help patients achieve tailored goals while avoiding the righting-reflex and highlighting change talk.

Abstract:

Legalisation of assisted dying is supported in particular by two arguments: 1) avoiding unbearable suffering and 2) respecting the right of self-determination (individual autonomy). This chapter raises objections to both. It is problematic that assisted dying aims to remove the suffering by eliminating the sufferer. The argument for respect for the right of self-determination is also analysed, with emphasis on autonomy in the sense that the Danish Health Care Act affords an unlimited right to refuse treatment, but not a right to demand a specific treatment. Whether autonomy is genuinely possible in connection with assisted dying is questioned, as autonomy will always be relative to an assessment of the patient’s quality of life. How assisted dying can affect the patient-physician relationship is also discussed. Finally, there is the conclusion that if the distressed and despairing person is met with the suggestion that now death is to be preferred, this also sends a message that the person is dispensable.

Abstract:

This chapter discusses feminist critiques of the conventional conceptions of the self. They believe that these conceptions are incomplete and misleading as they ignore the multiple sources of social identity constituted by one's gender, sexual orientation, race, class, age, ethnicity, among others. They charge that Kantian and homo economicus views of the self are androcentric and masculinist. Feminist philosophical work on the self has taken three main tacks: critique of established views of the self, reclamation of women's selfhood, and reconceptualisation of the self to incorporate women's experience. Their reclamation strategies include revaluation of the 'feminine' activities of mothering and other modes for maintaining vital social bonds through the development of care ethics and eros ethics, exploration of separatist practices, rethinking autonomy to include women by moving beyond the Kantian and homo economicus models, and reclamation of sexual difference through a symbolic analysis of female identity.

Abstract:

This chapter reviews ethical issues pertaining to the care of women with mental illness during pregnancy and the postpartum period. The incidence of perinatal depression and anxiety and psychotic disorders and their respective treatments are described. Ethics principles and perspectives that guide perinatal mental health care are discussed critically. Relational autonomy is shown to be a key principle to guide treatment decisions for these women. The value of relational autonomy in addressing ethical challenges is illustrated by three cases in reproductive mental health: psychotropic medication decisions during pregnancy; enforced treatment; and disclosure of medication use to fathers. A fourth case addresses social justice considerations of mother–baby units for women experiencing a perinatal mental health crisis. This analysis calls for a notion of self-determination that accounts for how autonomy occurs and is enacted within specific relational, social, cultural, and political contexts.

Abstract:

Abstract Pressure control have been going through steps of evolution. In the highlight of safety, reliability and control, the systems have been sturdy withstanding massive pressure and environmental impact to last the time of estimated life of well. Design have been emphasizing on sturdiness rather than intelligence and autonomy. Time moves on, sophistication levels rise in all parts of our industry. Sustainability and lower environmental impact of solutions grow from the young into business planning and democratic policies. Control lines of hydraulic systems posed risks to the environment as well as being costly in structure and maintenance. Condition monitoring helped ensure better maintenance planning and lowered the risk of breakdown, but still left a lot to be desired reaching for self-contained, self learning systems with low installation and maintenance costs, yet the safest approach. The next steps were taken towards electrification and digitization of pressure control systems, making short and undetermined strides over almost two decades. Still, the standards are not following the pace of technological progress. And when someone dares to pilot or demonstrate modern technology applied, the installations and operational procedures of the systems still need expensive distributed lines of power, of signals and control systems to ensure a swift and safe operation. The fly-by-wire principle applied in oil & gas is the operate-by-costly-technology-and-environmental-impact-lines. With the introduction of new and breaking technology in energy harvesting and storage, the playing field opens up towards fully automated systems with no need for expensive power lines or hydraulic control lines. The safety will be taken care of also off-grid, fully digitized. Should cabling of instrument signals be damaged, the system of tomorrow will still be up to par with the Safety Integrity Levels needed. New super-capacitors with an extra dense storage capacity being developed in partnership between the industry and the University of southeast Norway combined with an extremely low energy consuming actuation system with the fastest failsafe mechanism ever will ensure safety in all modes of operation, even with all lines down or consumed by flames. The paper aims to show how the technology works and underline why it will take a place in the future of well control and production.
