| effects of dyadic vocal interactions on other conspecific receivers in nightingales. | during vocal interactions birds can time their song output so that their songs overlap those of a conspecific. such overlapping is usually interpreted as a directed signal of arousal or as a signal of readiness to escalate contests. inevitably, these interactions can often be heard by other conspecifics. to investigate if these conspecifics would perceive and use information derived from listening to others' interactions we conducted playback experiments in the field on male territorial nighting ... | 1997 | 9794778 |
| nursing performance measures go public. | over 100 years ago, florence nightingale showed caregivers how to analyze mortality data to improve their clinical processes. the nurses of today are facing a new performance measurement challenge. consumers of health care services want information that will help them compare quality among providers. this article describes the types of nursing performance measures most appropriate to include on these public-oriented report cards and several issues that influence report card design and disseminat ... | 2004 | 9775919 |

| structural and functional analysis of chromatin assembled from defined histones. | in this review we describe how the extract-mediated chromatin assembly system derived from preblastoderm drosophila embryos can be modified to assemble chromatin from defined histones. this approach combines the advantages of assembling (i) chromatin templates from homogeneous histones with (ii) an assembly system that generates chromatin with physiological nucleosome spacing and density and that contains the biological complexity of in vivo chromatin. we have used this technique to assemble non ... | 1998 | 9740722 |

| introducing primary nursing to a satellite dialysis setting in singapore. | primary nursing originated from the university of minnesota hospitals in the late 1960s. almost 100 years before, florence nightingale defined a "case method" approach to nursing in which she described an individual nurse having responsibility for a given group of patients and dealing with issues relating to health, hygiene and family support. | 2010 | 9663995 |
| computer simulation of fat and muscle burn in long-distance bird migration | the mechanical power required from a bird's flight muscles was recalculated at regular intervals (default 6 min), and the energy consumed in the interval was accounted for by reducing fuel reserves, which also reduced the all-up mass and the body cross-sectional area. part of the energy requirement was met by consuming flight muscle tissue, according to one of three alternative "muscle burn criteria". these were (1) specific work held constant, (2) power density held constant and (3) muscle mass ... | 1998 | 9593656 |
| the future of robotics can be ours. | as the use of robotic aides increases the possibility of telesurgery, the perioperative scope of practice could include using patients' homes or other nontraditional settings as surgical sites. even mobile surgical vans could be used. to perform telesurgery, the health care industry actively must define the role of the health care professional with the patient who can make an incision and insert a laparoscope. this may create an opportune time to promote the rn first assistant (rnfa) role--a goa ... | 1998 | 9592608 |

| florence nightingale's memory loss. | alzheimer's disease presents in many guises from the frankly florid to the benign decline in memory and functioning. florence nightingale (1820-1910) is well known to the public as the face behind the nursing profession. what has not been well studied is her cognitive decline in old age. evidence is presented to support the diagnosis of late onset alzheimer's disease, perhaps from a familial basis, this being the major contributor to her death. her last years were with dignity and can be an insp ... | 1997 | 9137312 |
| all the young men gone: losing men in the gentrification of australian nursing circa 1860-1899. | men played an important role in nursing in colonial australia. however the number of men undertaking nursing duties declined dramatically in the second half of the nineteenth century. reasons for this are explored in relation to ramifications of the introduction of the nightingale pattern of nurse training in australia, which occurred within the victorian ethos of gentility and decorum. in this context, nursing came to be seen as a calling that was natural and appropriate for women. the controll ... | 1996 | 9117770 |

| the virtues in the moral education of nurses: florence nightingale revisited. | the virtues have been a neglected aspect of morality; only recently has reference been made to their place in professional ethics. unfashionable as florence nightingale is, it is nonetheless worth noting that she was instrumental in continuing the aristotelian tradition of being concerned with the moral character of persons. nurses who came under nightingale's sphere of influence were expected to develop certain exemplary habits of behaviour. a corollary can be drawn with the current uk professi ... | 1997 | 9052177 |
| florence nightingale's influence on the development and professionalization of modern nursing in japan. | this article has summarized the overwhelming sociocultural and geopolitical forces that influenced the development of modern nursing in japan. the irony of japanese nursing is that modern nursing, first introduced by navy physicians, served the needs of japanese military efforts and those of physicians who required others to perform menial hospital chores. because of the harsh realities of nursing in the battlefields or in hospitals, working as a kangofu was, and is, not compatible with a tradit ... | 2008 | 8981499 |

| army nurses in wartime: distinction and pride. | nurses have served with distinction in wartime since florence nightingale went to the crimea. women often accompanied their husbands to battle during the revolutionary and civil wars, caring for the sick and wounded. although not officially given officer status until 1920, army nurses served in the spanish-american war and world war i. as officers, thousands of nurses served in subsequent wars, distinguishing themselves by their heroism, devotion to duty, and sheer tenacity of spirit. | 1996 | 8772301 |
| wound healing and critical illness. | critically ill patients with acute wounds provide a multitude of challenges for the critical care nurse. assessment of the patient's wound and associated-disease risk factors must be an ongoing process involving the evaluation of the treatment modalities and the stage of wound healing. nightingale stated that the nurse's role "is to put the patient in the best condition for nature to act upon." the critical care nurse plays a pivotal role in establishing and maintaining the best condition or env ... | 1996 | 8716381 |
| the incidence of malnutrition in hospitalised patients. | this paper is the third in our literature review series and looks at the subject of nutrition. in 1859 florence nightingale suggested that thousands of patients were 'annually starved in the midst of plenty, from want of attention to the ways which alone make it possible for them to take food'. over 130 years later it is still being suggested that nutrition remains a neglected area of patient care. it is sobering to realise that little has changed in this time. this paper provides an overview of ... | 2013 | 8710558 |

| 100 apples divided by 15 red herrings: a cautionary tale from the mid-19th century on comparing hospital mortality rates. | in 1863, florence nightingale argued that london hospitals were dangerous, especially compared with provincial facilities. she bolstered this contention with statistics published in william farr's registrar-general report which claimed that 24 london hospitals had mortality rates exceeding 90%, whereas rural hospitals had an average mortality rate of 13%. farr had calculated mortality rates by dividing the total number of patients who died throughout the year by the number of inpatients on a sin ... | 1996 | 8633823 |
| the role of gender, phrenology, discrimination and nervous prostration in clara barton's career. | clara barton was 39 years old before she became involved in civil war humanitarian activities. prior to that time, three factors shaped her personality and her future: phrenology gave her philosophical principles to live by, especially "know thyself"; sex discrimination on her first two jobs steeled her for living in a male dominated victorian era; and psychohygienic therapy for her long term nervous prostration changed her behavioral approach to illness and to life. with these three influences ... | 1995 | 8568024 |

| it's all in the name. | in recent years it has become fashionable to call a person seeking health care a client instead of a patient. some consider that this is part of the change in nursing, from the old military model that florence nightingale was acquainted with to the new consumer model. nurses are also finding themselves in the position of acting as advocates for the care-seeking person. for me, none of these models appear appropriate for nursing. | 1993 | 8221603 |

| nightingale's spiritual philosophy and its significance for modern nursing. | in her manuscript, suggestions for thought, nightingale attempted to integrate science and mysticism. she wrote that the universe is the incarnation of a divine intelligence that regulates all things through law. for nightingale, the laws of science are the "thoughts of god." because of her deep conviction about universal law, she did not believe in miraculous intervention as an answer to prayer. human beings must discover the laws of god and apply them for health and wholeness. prayer is attuni ... | 1995 | 7721325 |
