    Aims: To explore patient perceptions and understanding of their pressure ulcer risk and how information is communicated between a nurse and patient in the home setting.Design: A pragmatic qualitative research design including community-dwelling patients, who were deemed at risk of developing a pressure ulcer.Methods: Observation of routine interactions between nurse and patient regarding their pressure ulcer risk and semi-structured interviews with 15 community patients following the nursing interaction.Results: Four key overarching themes emerged from the data analysis that were related to patient perceptions and understanding of pressure ulcer risk. These included Pressure Ulcer Awareness, Importance of Repositioning, Healthy Eating and Risk Interpretation.Conclusion: Patient perception and understanding of pressure ulcer risk is different from the scientific, professional view. Patient risk perception was based on heuristics and wider personal factors and social influences.Impact: The study provides important new insights into clinical practice in relation to how pressure ulcer advice and information are provided and interpreted in the community setting. Reporting method: adhered to the Standards for Reporting Qualitative Research (SRQR) Patient or public contribution: a small selection of patients within the NHS Trust in which the research was conducted contributed to the design of the study, in particular some of the interview questions and timing

    © 2008 Dr. Susannah Jayne Hope.As the spatial information industry moves from an era of data collection to one of data maintenance, new integration methods to consolidate or to update datasets are required. These must reduce the discrepancies that are becoming increasingly apparent when spatial datasets are overlaid. It is essential that any such methods consider the quality characteristics of, firstly, the data being integrated and, secondly, the resultant data. This thesis develops techniques that give due consideration to data quality during the integration process

    Introduction : Heidegger and Theology after the Black Notebooks

    No full text
    This introductory chapter gives an overview of the intricate relation between Heidegger and theology. Firstly, it discusses Heidegger’s indebtedness to theology by revisiting the debate that was initiated by the publication of his early Freiburg lectures in the 1990s. Second, it sketches in broad strokes the reception history of Heidegger’s works within twentieth century theology. In the third and final part, the implication of the new facts revealed by the Black Notebooks are discussed. By revisiting Hans Jonas’s lecture ‘Heidegger and Theology’, delivered at Drew University in 1964, the author indicates how Jonas already in the 1960s revealed the potential shortcomings of a theology that takes its basics tenets from Heidegger’s philosophy

    The Ocean Age: #39: Dr Catherine Jadot – Blue Finance Expert and Author of “How It Doesn’t End”

    No full text
    Today we dive into the finance side of the ocean economy because, like it or not, without capital, we won’t be able to make the impact and change we want to see in the world. Finance will be needed to make it happen. To explore this difficult topic, we sat down with Dr Catherine Jadot, author of the book “How It Doesn’t End”. She’s a fantastic person to talk about this because she’s a marine biologist AND blue-economy finance specialist with over 20 years of experience working with organisations from governments to start-ups. We didn’t just cover blue finance; we also looked at the psychology of action and the behavioural science behind influencing the positive change ocean founders and innovators want to see
