Title A study of cardiac inpatient participation in Canterbury Health's cardiac rehabilitation programme Type
Year 1994 Publication Abbreviated Journal Author
Volume Issue Pages
Keywords
Abstract (up) A telephone survey was conducted with 61 randomly selected patients who had been admitted to the cardiology service with an Myocardial infarction but did not attend the cardiac rehabilitation programme. Findings show that many patients who would benefit from cardiac rehabilitation are denied access because it is only open to patients who have Myocardial Infarctions. Only a small percentage of MI admissions attend rehabilitation the main reason being patients are not informed the service is available. Women are under represented among rehabilitation participants and lack of transport is a major factor inhibiting women from attending. Improvements in referral systems and follow up are recommended

Title Career transition : from professional to manager in the health service Type
Year 1994 Publication Abbreviated Journal Held by NZNO
Volume Issue Pages
Keywords
Abstract (up) A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for Master of Philosophy in Management Studies and Labour Relations, University of Auckland.

The study addresses the question of career transition from a professional role to a management role within the health service – what changes and adjustments in role content (or tasks), relationships and identity are experienced? What skills, perspectives and values are brought forward from the old role to the new role, and which must be abandoned to accommodate a new identity?

Answers to these questions hold relevance for those planning management development and management recruitment in the health service, and also for those planning career development for health professionals.

Title Nurses' attitudes and concerns to HIV/AIDS: a focus group approach Type Journal Article
Year 1994 Publication Journal of Advanced Nursing Abbreviated Journal
Volume 20 Issue 6 Pages 1141-1147
Keywords
Abstract (up) An exploratory qualitative study was investigated to further identify nurses'' attitudes to the care of people with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and acquired immunodefiency syndrome (AIDS). This follows as a sequel to a study using questionnaire. Data collected from nine focus groups attended by a total of 29 nurses at a hospital within a new Zealand regional health authority. The principal findings suggest that nurses' attitudes to this patient group are varied and depend on social influences, personal experiences and the extent of knowledge regarding HIV/AIDS. Other concerns raised included nurses' rights to choose to care for HIV-positive patients and the issue of universal precautions. Theses findings may have implications for further educational initiatives and information of hospital policy

Title Long-term follow-up after Bjork flap tracheostomy Type
Year 1994 Publication Abbreviated Journal DCCM, Private Bag 92024, Auckland
Volume Issue Pages
Keywords
Abstract (up) Because of concern about long-term complications of bjork flap tracheostomy we followed-up 136 intensive care patients who had Bjork flap tracheotomy in 1992 a median of 117 (range 5-402) hours after intubation. Twenty died in hospital, none as a result of tracheostomy. Twenty- six patients were lost to follow-up and eleven declined. The remaining 79 had measures of health status, a quality of life questionnaire, respiratory function testing and physical examination of the neck and upper airway 9-27 months (median 14) later. Various health status measures deteriorated in 9 to 51 of 77 patients. Forty-two of 77 patients were taking prescription medication and 15/32 smokers had stopped smoking. FEV1, FVC and FEV1/FVC were significantly reduced from predicted normal (n=70, 2.8+ 1.1 vs 3.2 +0.9 p<.0001, 3.7 + 1.3 vs 4.0 + 1.0 p<.0001, 76 +11vs 79 +3 p= 0.035 respectively). Pulse oximetry was normal (>92%) in 73/74 patients tested. The median horizontal scar dimension was 45mm (range 20 to 75 mm). Nine had a median vertical scar dimension 15mm (range 8 to 25mm). Nineteen scars were hypertrophic, 56 were tethered. Two patients had already undergone tracheal scar revision at follow-up and further 13 accepted scar revision. Ten patients had abnormal voice examination, four abnormal cough, two stridor, three vocal cord lesions, three tracheal polyps and fourteen asymptomatic tracheal narrowing from 10-60% (median 25%) of the tracheal luminal diameter. Patients surviving critical illness with bjork flap tracheostomy have reduced quality of life and respiratory function and poor cosmetic result but a low incidence of important airway problems
