Title Routine and rigidity: Barriers to insulin initiation in patients with Type 2 Diabetes Type Journal Article
Year 2010 Publication Kai Tiaki Nursing Research Abbreviated Journal NZNO Library
Volume 1 Issue 1 Pages 19-22
Keywords (down) Medication compliance; Diabetes Mellitus, Non-Insulin-Dependent; Primary health care
Abstract It has been shown that intensive management of diabetes with type 2 diabetes is effective and has led to wider use of insulin. The conversion of patients from oral medication to insulin is usually managed in primary care. The study discussed here aimed to explore how patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) perceived insulin. The study was conducted in 2009 in an urban general practice in a large town in New Zealand with more than 300 patients with type 2 diabetes. A qualitative study was conducted with face-to-face interviews with 13 participants. The question focused on insulin initiation, lifestyle and routine. The transcribed responses were subject to thematic anaylsis. Interviews showed participants felt restricted by the prospect and eventuality of the routine and restrictions of being on insulin. Results show there needs to be a greater emphasis on the disease being progressive. This study provides the ground work for developing resources that will benefit patients with T2DM.

Title Maori nurses and smoking; Conflicted identities and motivations for smoking cessation Type Journal Article
Year 2013 Publication Kai Tiaki Nursing Research Abbreviated Journal Available through NZNO library
Volume 4 Issue 1 Pages 33-38
Keywords (down) Maori nurses; Smoking cessation; smoking; Qualitative research
Abstract This research aims to design and test the feasibility of an intervention promoting smoking cessation, and reducing smoking relapse, among Māori nurses who smoke. It is being conducted in two phases. Phase one, a national web-based survey, conducted in December 2012, explored the views of Māori nurses (smokers, ex-smokers and non-smokers) regarding smoking. This paper reports on the analysis of qualitative responses from 410 nurses and nursing students identifying as Māori who completed an online survey. Five themes were identified: beliefs about smoking; ?for our tamariki?; personal stories of quitting; dissatisfaction with current approaches; and plans for future strategies. The findings confirm that nurses who smoke may experience feelings of conflict, and regard their behaviour as inconsistent with their role as nurses and health promoters. Nurses who smoke must be supported to become, and to stay, smokefree. Tailored Māori-specific cessation initiatives are needed.
