Product Information

She has more than 120 publications in both nursing and social science journals and books, with over 35 refereed papers on qualitative methods alone. Several studies have found fatigue to be a common and distressing difficulty experienced after stroke. Using an integrative methodology, we conducted a systematic assessment of women's experiences and needs related to VBAC decision‐making. Since 1994, several types of metasynthesis have been conducted, resulting in theory building, theory explication, and substantive descriptions of phenomena. Throughout each phase of this process, the authors constantly referred back to the original source material, comparing and contrasting our comprehension and interpretation of the data.

Good mentors should be sincere in their dealings with mentees, be able to listen actively and understand mentees' needs, and have a well-established position within the academic community.Reinforcement of the potential benefits, both for clinicians and for their patients, could also be a successful factor in improving recruitment. We all like the idea of saving a bit of cash, so when we found out how many good quality used books are out there - we just had to let you know! Based on the findings of 51 reports, four domains of healing were identified: (a) managing memories, (b) relating to important others, (c) seeking safety, and (c) reevaluating self. We recommend intensive care diaries as a low-technology, low-cost rehabilitative intervention for patients and relatives to help bridge the span from intensive care to recovery. The social constructivist paradigm is associated with creative thinking and problem solving through collaborative learning.

The aim of the study was to explore and synthesize qualitative empirical studies published between 2005 and 2016 that describe women’s experiences of postpartum depression. Studies that met the inclusion criteria were assessed for quality using the Critical Appraisal Skills Programme qualitative checklist. This book provides a comprehensive overview of the range of approaches and methods available for synthesising qualitative and quantitative evidence and a detailed explanation of why this is important. INTRODUCTION The need for continuous skills development has resulted in a growth in demand for quality higher education which exceeds the supply offered via conventional face-to-face higher institutions of learning. Recommendations for implementation in VBAC decision aids include facilitating women's involvement in decision‐making, satisfying their information needs, and delivering appropriate emotional support.

Purpose: The purpose is to provide a guide for integrating the findings of primary qualitative studies. More interpreted qualitative findings appear similar in form to adjusted findings found in, for example, structural equation models specifying the relationship among a host of latent variables.

Quality assessment of included articles was made using the Joanna Briggs Institute Reviewers' Manual. S. Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld have all pointed out that we need to be able to tell the difference between real and assumed knowledge. Audience: The target audience is graduate nursing students and faculty as well as students and faculty in other healthcare and practice disciplines.These decisions will ultimately be judged on the meaningfulness of their results to practice or policy. Despite the fact that all European Union member states have ratified human rights-based resolutions aimed at non-discrimination, there is a relationship between social inequality and access to pre-, intra-, and postpartum care. When the outcomes of the checklist appraisal are compared with those of the expert judgement, the effect on the strength of the evidence is virtually always in the same direction.
