    No full text
    From this paper's Preface, by Dr. Dimitri B. Papadimitriou, President: Economic growth and a rising stock market in the 1990s gave the impression that everyone was accumulating wealth and asset poverty rates were declining. The impression was supported by the official, income-based poverty measure, which exhibited a sharp decline. According to Senior Scholar Edward N. Wolff and Research Scholar Asena Caner, poverty measures should include wealth as well as income. Their study of asset poverty in the United States between 1984 and 1999 focuses on the lower end of the wealth distribution and shows that asset poverty rates did not decline during the period studied, and that the severity of poverty increased. It also shows that asset poverty is much more persistent than income poverty.

    No full text
    There are a wide variety of strategies and methods used in securing and managing the oral endotracheal tube and mouth and oral care in German clinical intensive care nursing for mechanically ventilated patients. There are no nationally recognized guidelines or recommendations on this topic. A survey among intensive care nurses identified the most widely used nursing strategies and methods. Regarding the results of the survey and international literature findings, the commonly used strategies and methods are discussed. Following these discussions, there are recommendations for improving nursing care of orally intubated patients in intensive care, including the aspects of evidence identified, currently used methods and patient needs. Also included are aspects of patient safety, potential complications and quality-orientated nursing care within a system having limited overall nursing care resources
