Psychodramatische Supervision in der Sozialen Arbeit

Anliegen dieses Artikels ist, die besondere Qualit?t und Chance von Psychodramatischer Supervision zu beschreiben, und gleichzeitig die Kompatibilit?t und fruchtbare Erg?nzung des Moreno’schen Ansatzes innerhalb des Formats Supervision innerhalb der Sozialen Arbeit auf zuzeigen. Dies wird anhand von 2 ausgew?hlten Praxisbeispielen dargestellt. Die Handlungskompetenz von Supervisandinnen und Supervisanden kann durch einfache psychodramatische Interventionen erweitert werden. Handlungshemmung wird überwunden, Spontaneit?t und Kreativit?t kommen ins Laufen und er?ffnen Perspektiven.     

The expression of emotion through nonverbal behavior in medical visits

Relationship-centered care reflects both knowing and feeling: the knowledge that physician and patient bring from their respective domains of expertise, and the physician’s and patient’s experience, expression, and perception of emotions during the medical encounter. These processes are conveyed and reciprocated in the care process through verbal and nonverbal communication. We suggest that the emotional context of care is especially related to nonverbal communication and that emotion-related communication skills, including sending and receiving nonverbal messages and emotional self-awareness, are critical elements of high-quality care. Although nonverbal behavior has received far less study than other care processes, the current review argues that it holds significance for the therapeutic relationship and influences important outcomes including satisfaction, adherence, and clinical outcomes of care.     

Non-invasive Assessment of Coronary Flow Velocity Reserve: A New Method Using Transthoracic Doppler Echocardiography

Coronary flow reserve (CFR) has been used toassess coronary microcirculation and epicardial coro-nary stenoses[1— 3 ] . CFR is defined as the ratio ofcoronary flow under maximal coronary vasodilatationto coronary flow under resting conditions[4 ] .Whenthe cross- sectional area of epicardial coronary arteriesis constant,coronary flow velocity (CFV) ratios areequal to volume flow ratios.The most common method used clinically formeasuring CFVR is intracoronary Doppler flow(ICD) analysis re…     

gamma-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) causes consistent depolarization of neurons in the guinea pig supraoptic nucleus due to an absence of GABAB recognition sites

The action of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in the supraoptic nucleus was investigated using guinea pig brain slices. GABA produced a membrane depolarization accompanied by a decrease in the input resistance. The action of GABA was concentration-dependent throughout a wide range of concentrations (10(-7)-10(-3) M). In none of the cells examined, a membrane hyperpolarization was observed. The reversal potential for the depolarization induced by GABA was about 25 mV positive to the resting membrane potential. The amplitude of the GABA-induced depolarization was increased to 1.5 X the control by reducing the external Cl- from 134.2 mM to 10.2 mM. The action of GABA was readily antagonized by relatively low concentrations of bicuculline (10(-5) M). The action of GABA in the hippocampus or in the anterior hypothalamus was markedly different from that in the supraoptic nucleus, i.e. GABA produced both depolarizing and hyperpolarizing responses in the hippocampus and consistently a hyperpolarization in the anterior hypothalamus. The depolarizing but not the hyperpolarizing response in the hippocampus was selectively blocked by picrotoxin (2 X 10(-5) M) or by bicuculline (10(-5) M). The depolarizing component was dependent on the external Cl- concentration and had a reversal potential similar to that of the depolarization induced by GABA in the supraoptic nucleus. The hyperpolarizing component was resistant to bicuculline and had a reversal potential about 30 mV negative to the resting membrane potential.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
