A Crisis Like No Other: Understanding and Defeating Global Warming

.: Robert De Saro has written an important book that provides a comprehensive and accurate account of the scientific basis of climate change and the human activities that cause it. More importantly, the author explores in considerable detail how the information about climate change is processed. For example, he discusses how cognitive biases might affect the appreciation of evidence, and therefore either facilitate taking actions to address climate change or divert from doing so. De Saro is an engineer, a scientist, and an astute observer and student of human behavior. His book is thus an important tool for those who wish to communicate effectively about climate change. In fact, his book is itself a model of good communication. De Saro injects humor into the discussion and provides illustrations when they are most needed. He writes with a personal touch, giving the reader a chance to know and trust him. A Crisis Like No Other: Understanding and Defeating Global Warming is an important contribution to the literature on climate change and, in particular, on climate communication, which is most deserving of our attention at this crucial juncture in the history of the world.

Social support from the physiotherapist and the therapeutic relationship in physiotherapy: bridging theory to practice

ABSTRACT Background/Purpose Therapeutic relationship and social support are critical components in physiotherapy that shape patient outcomes. However, defining these constructs, discerning their similarities and differences, and measuring them pose challenges. This article aims to facilitate scientific and clinical advancement on social support and the therapeutic relationship in physiotherapy by (a) providing conceptual clarity, (b) discussing measurement tools, and (c) offering practical recommendations for the deliberate incorporation of these constructs in clinical practice. Methods This is a perspective paper drawing on examples from existing research. Key Results Assessing the nature and strength of social support and promoting naturally occurring social support networks are practical ways for physiotherapists to foster social support in physiotherapy clinical practice. Physiotherapists can offer direct support, facilitate the development of an individual’s social skills, and promote participation in group activities. To strengthen the therapeutic relationship, it is important to maintain good communication, foster connectedness with the patient, demonstrate professional skills, and adopt a reflective practice. Physiotherapists are encouraged to establish clear roles and responsibilities, prioritize individualized patient-centered care, and involve patients in shared decision-making, ensuring congruence in goals and expectations. Willingness to dedicate time and energy within and beyond direct patient-therapist interactions can foster connections. Moreover, using the body – which is the main point of contact with patients – and physical touch can help physiotherapists to connect with patients. Finally, physiotherapists must be prepared to address and mend any conflicts which can impact the relationship’s trajectory. Conclusion Social support and therapeutic relationships are complementary aspects of one’s health care, and it is crucial to purposefully account for both in physiotherapy practice to optimize person-centered care and rehabilitation outcomes.

Experiences of healthcare staff caring for hospitalised people with delirium: a qualitative systematic review.

Inpatient delirium is common and associated with poor outcomes. Although most organisations have evidence-based guidelines to improve delirium prevention and management, delirium rates and outcomes have remained relatively unchanged over time. A lack of understanding of healthcare providers' experience of caring for people with delirium and its integration into existing guidance may explain some of the slow progress in improving delirium care. To review and synthesise existing qualitative evidence on healthcare providers' experience of caring for inpatients with delirium within and across disciplines. We systematically searched OVID Medline, CINAHL, Embase, Emcare, PsychINFO, AMED and Web of Science databases for articles published between January 1990 and November 2022. Article inclusion and study quality were assessed by two independent reviewers. Both thematic synthesis and content analysis were then conducted to synthesise findings from included studies. Within the 25 included studies, the experience of nurses was the most commonly studied perspective, followed by medical and allied health. Nursing, medical and allied health staff all reported that their experience of caring for people with delirium was challenging, highlighting difficulties in delirium recognition and that they felt unsupported at organisational and local levels. Attitudes towards older people and the importance of delirium influenced identification and prioritisation. Healthcare providers often find caring for hospitalised patients with delirium challenging and complex. Although good communication within multidisciplinary teams was deemed helpful, more work is required to understand how to achieve this, recognising the unique perspectives of individual disciplines.

Establishing an Intravesical Doublet Chemotherapy Clinic for Nonmuscle-Invasive Bladder Cancer Patients.

Intravesical sequential doublet chemotherapy (SDC) is being used increasingly as a rescue treatment for nonmuscle-invasive bladder cancer failing bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG), as single-agent chemotherapies are less effective, especially for carcinoma in situ. Considering the current BCG shortage, intravesical SDC also provides an efficacious alternative to BCG. Our aim is to detail the implementation to assist with establishing an efficient and practical intravesical SDC clinic for urologic practice. We searched PubMed for published studies with the Medical Subject Heading of "intravesical chemotherapy" and "non-muscle invasive bladder cancer." The search was limited to English-language journals and full papers only. The initial search resulted in 260 articles, of which 20 relevant studies were selected. Five important processes were identified in the successful and efficient administration of intravesical SDC: (1) patient preparation, (2) medication procurement, (3) medication administration, (4) medication immediate aftermath, and (5) patient instruction and education. Safety precautions should be taken when handling each chemotherapy drug. A clinical pharmacist may be required for drug preparation. An important step in providing intravesical SDC is to use a closed system for the instillation of the chemo-solution. A special protocol should be adopted for every drug with its proper dwell time. The induction course consists of weekly instillation for 6 weeks. If an initial response is noted, maintenance therapy is recommended, typically monthly for 24 months. Successful intravesical SDC clinics necessitate appropriate patient selection, standardized workflow procedures, patient education, and good communication between the urologist, clinical pharmacists, and oncology nurses.

Nurses’ Emotional Labor and Intrinsic Motivation: Findings from a Cross-sectional Study

Abstract Aim: This cross-sectional study aimed to determine the level of nurses’ emotional labor and intrinsic motivation (IM) and to assess its relationship with patients’ perceptions of nursing care. Methodology: Data were provided by 71 staff nurses and corresponding 71 patients from a tertiary care hospital. The Emotional Labor (EL) Scale by Brotheridge and Lee, a self-structured IM Scale, and the Perception of Nursing Care Scale were used to collect the data between January and March 2021. The study is registered in the Clinical Trial Registry of India (CTRI/2019/08/020592). Results: The study reveals that nurses frequently use EL in their work, use deep-acting more than surface-acting EL, and have a high level of IM. The patients were found to have a good perception of nursing care, with “good communication” as the highest-rated factor. No significant correlation was found between nurses’ EL and IM with patients’ perceptions of nursing care. Conclusion: As nurses frequently use emotional labor at work, it may lead to emotional dissonance. Therefore, interventions on emotional regulation skills may allow them to skillfully use emotional labor in practice and enable them to cope with the increased emotional demands at work.
