In child and youth care in the Netherlands, systematic planning of treatment is more and more considered to be a condition
for effective and well founded treatment. Although workers are convinced of the benefits of treatment plans, treatment planning
is not yet a natural and integrated part of residential care. There are several pressure points. In this article a model of
treatment planning will be presented that contributes to an answer to these pressure points. The theoretical bases and the
practical implications of this model will be discussed. 相似文献
The purpose of the present study was to analyse clinically failed and retrieved implants prior to and after cleaning by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray induced photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) as compared to unused controls. Six different chemical and physical techniques for cleaning of contaminated titanium implants were evaluated: 1) rinsing in absolute ethanol for 10 min, 2) cleaning in ultrasonic baths containing trichloroethylene (TRI) and absolute ethanol, 10 min in each solution, 3) abrasive cleaning for 30 s, 4) cleaning in supersaturated citric acid for 30 s, 5) cleaning with continuous CO2-laser in dry conditions at 5 W for 10 s, 6) cleaning with continuous CO2-laser in wet conditions (saline) at 5 W for 10 s. SEM of failed implants showed the presence of contaminants of varying sizes and XPS showed almost no titanium but high carbon signals. XPS of unused titanium implants showed lower levels of titanium as previously reported, probably due to contamination of carbon which increased with time in room air. Cleaning of used implants in citric acid followed by rinsing with deionized water for 5 min followed by cleaning in ultrasonic baths with TRI and absolute ethanol gave the best results with regard to macroscopical appearance and surface composition. However, as compared to the unused implants the results from an element composition point of view were still unsatisfactory. It is concluded that further development and testing of techniques for cleaning of organically contaminated titanium is needed. 相似文献
With spinal anesthesia the level of surgical analgesia is mostly reported without reference to the neuroanatomic map of spinal nerves. The classical maps are variably and inconsistently reported in many textbooks. Because of the differences between the classical maps of Keegan and Garrett and of Foerster, and also because of the variability in their interpretation, we applied them to the same clinical data. This resulted in a theoretically clinically significant difference of two segments. It is concluded that clear reference should be made to the implemented segmental map in expressing the level of spinal blockade. 相似文献
Rasmussen and Milner [N.Y. Acad. Sci. Vol. 299, pp. 355–379, 1977] published data on late-lesioned (after age 6) epileptic patients who had suffered left hemisphere lesions. They estimated that left hemisphere dominance occurred in 96% of dextrals and 70% of sinistrals. These figures have been regarded as valid estimates for normal dextrals and sinistrals. We administered the Bilateral Object Naming Latency Task, a verbal tachistoscopic task with very good psychometric properties, to 188 dextral and 72 sinistral normals. Results showed that 93.6% of the dextrals and 80.3% of the sinistrals were left hemisphere dominant. A consideration of results from a number of carefully conducted dichotic listening studies suggests, as do present results, that the 70% left-dominance estimate of Rasmussen and Milner for normal sinistrals may be too low by about 10%. It is suggested that ‘bilateral dominance’, present in 15% of the epileptic sinistrals of Rasmussen and Milner, may be much less common in normal sinistrals. 相似文献
In a follow-up evaluation of 3721 Multiload IUD users, the removal rate for medical reasons other than bleeding/pain was only 2.6 per 100 women at three years. Most of these removals were for reasons that appeared to be unrelated to IUD use. The removal rate for pelvic inflammatory disease was 0.3 per 100 woman years. Women were followed up for up to three years after removal of their IUDs. Among women with PID at least 70% of those who desired pregnancy subsequently became pregnant, a rate similar to that of women who had their IUDs electively removed to become pregnant. The study provides further data on the safety of intrauterine contraception.
Resumen Durante el seguimiento de 3721 usuarias del DIU Multiload, la tasa de remociones por otras razones médicas que sangrado/dolor, fué de 2.6 por 100 mujeres en tres años. La mayoría de estas remociones fueron hechas por razones que parecen no estar relacionadas con el uso del DIU. La tasa de remociones por enfermedad inflamatoria pelviana fué de 0.3 por 100 años-mujer. Las mujeres tuvieron seguimiento hasta tres años después de la remoción de sus DIU. Entre las mujeres con enfermedad inflamatoria pelviana, al menos 70% de las que desearon un embarazo lo consiguieron; una tasa similar a la de mujeres que eligieron la remoción del DIU para quedar embarazadas. El estudio proporciona más información sobre la inocuidad de la anticoncepción intrauterina.
Résumé Lors d'une évaluation de suivi effectuée sur 3721 utilisatrices de DIU Multiload, le taux de retrait pour des raisons médicales autres que des pertes sanguines/douleurs n'a atteint que 2,6 pour cent des femmes après trois ans. La plupart de ces retraits ont été pratiqués pour des raisons qui ne semblaient pas liées à l'utilisation du DIU. Le taux de retrait pour cause d'inflammation pelvienne s'est élevé à 0,3 pour cent femmes-an. Les femmes ont été suivies pendant des périodes allant jusqu'à trois ans après le retrait du DIU. Parmi les patientes qui avaient contracté une inflammation pelvienne, 70% au moins de celles qui souhaitaient une grossesse sont par la suite devenues enceintes; taux semblable à celui des femmes qui avaient choisi de ne plus porter leur DIU précisément pour avoir un enfant. Cette étude fournit des données supplémentaires sur la sécurité qu'apporte la contraception intrautérine.
Background. Little is known about preload-dependent cardiac function after brain death (BD) and subsequent graft preservation.
Methods. A validated model of BD in rabbits was developed and myocardial performance was studied after BD induction and 1 hour of subsequent global hypothermic ischemia using a validated rabbit model and an isolated work-performing heart preparation.
Results. Significant decreases in stroke work, left ventricular contractility, and left ventricular relaxation were observed 2 hours after BD. After global hypothermic ischemia, significant decreases in stroke work, left ventricular contractility, and left ventricular relaxation were observed in the BD group compared with controls. Cardiac output and coronary flow were also significantly decreased in BD hearts compared with controls. Creatine kinase release was increased by 32.5% in BD hearts compared with controls.
Conclusions. In a rabbit model, BD combined with global hypothermic ischemia causes a significant decrease in left ventricular function compared with global hypothermic ischemia. This dysfunction may be attributed to a significant decrease in coronary flows in BD hearts. 相似文献
