Abstract:

Subciliary and transconjunctival approaches are commonly used to enter the orbital floor. Although both surgical approaches have been used for decades, there is no consensus regarding the most appropriate incision to prevent postoperative lower eyelid complications. The aim of this study was to compare the frequencies of lower eyelid complications after subciliary versus transconjunctival approaches to orbital floor fractures. The investigator implemented a retrospective cohort study and enrolled a sample consisting of subjects who had orbital floor repair. The predictor variable was two diffe

Abstract:

Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease that affects millions of people in the United States. The purpose of this project was to develop a guideline to help clinical staff provide clear and concise diabetes self-management instructions to patients in a community setting. Orem's self-care deficit theory (SCD) and health belief model (HBM) provided a platform to assess how patients' self-care deficit contributes to illness and the effect of patients' perception of illness. SCD theory and the HBM provided the framework for the development of the guideline to decrease diabetes acute complications t

The result is often a loss of vertical height in the posterior maxilla due to sinus pneumatization.

Pressure ulcers are a serious complication of spinal cord injury (SCI). This thesis includes four research projects namely a randomised controlled trial (RCT), a Cochrane systematic review and two psychometric studies. The first project was a prospective, multicentre, assessor blinded, parallel, RCT with a built-in economic evaluation. The trial investigated the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of telephone-based management versus standard care of pressure ulcers in people with SCI in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC).

Abstract Although in Finland the incidence of maternal and neonatal mortality in labor is very low, labor carries some risks. This study focused on two major complications in labor: fetal asphyxia and maternal hemorrhage. The roles of fetal electrocardiographic ST-analysis (STAN) and pelvic artery embolization in the prevention and management of these complications were investigated. Intrapartum fetal monitoring aims at a timely detection of fetal hypoxemia. When non-selected parturients were randomly assigned to be monitored during labor either by STAN or conventional cardiotocography, no d

Objective Central venous access devices (CVADs) are an integral component of modern paediatric healthcare; however, the insertion and use of these devices are associated with serious complications. CVAD management strategies, including their dressing and securement, have been developed to reduce CVAD-associated complications. Nurses are key managers in promoting paediatric CVAD function, through the consistent use of effective management strategies. The aims of this PhD study were to: (1) identify current clinical management for CVADs within Australian paediatric facilities; (2) evaluate the

Abstract:

Low Earth orbit represents a valuable limited natural resource. Of particular interest are sun-synchronous orbits; it is estimated that approximately 44% of low Earth satellites are sun-synchronous. A previously developed sun-synchronous orbit slot architecture is considered. An in-depth analysis of the relative motion between satellites and their corresponding slots is performed. The long-term evolution of Earth's orbital environment is modeled by a set of coupled ordinary differential equations. A metric for quantifying the benefit, if any, of implementing a sun-synchronous architecture is d

With the trend for women to delay pregnancy, young women diagnosed with breast cancer may want at least the option to become pregnant after diagnosis and treatment but little is known about how pregnancy affects breast cancer or how breast cancer affects pregnancy.

Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) and Neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2) are distinct single gene disorders, which share a predisposition to formation of benign nervous system tumours due to loss of tumour suppressor function.

As a result, identifying safe and effective medical approaches to treating NF1 and NF2-associated tumours has become a focus of clinical research and patient care in recent ye

Despite an increased worldwide emphasis on the importance of continuing education, there continues to be an absence of empirical evidence of program and session effectiveness.
