Current Trends in Nursing II

Trends in nursing are multifactorial and associated with changes in society, within the nursing profession, and in other professions. Notably, telehealth and remote nursing contribute to successful healthcare delivery for numerous patients and help reduce stress for nurses due to nursing shortages. Nurses can reach patients, monitor their conditions, and interact with them using computers, audio, visual accessories, and telephones—for example, remote patient monitoring systems. Likewise,...

Psychosurgery

Psychosurgery, the surgical alteration or permanent removal of brain tissue to alleviate severe psychological conditions, stands as one of the most radical and controversial treatments in the history of mental health care. Its development and application have evolved significantly, marked by dramatic shifts in scientific understanding and ethical perspectives.
Historical Development of Psychosurgery
In the 1930s, Portuguese neurologist Antonio Egas Moniz introduced a surgical procedure designed...
Ending Relationships01:28

Ending Relationships

The dissolution of intimate relationships presents complex emotional and psychological challenges, particularly when emotional bonds are strong, the relationship is long-standing, and perceived alternatives are limited.

However, as you may have experienced as a child, not all play behavior has positive outcomes. Some children are aggressive and want to play roughly. Other children are selfish and do not want to share toys. One form of negative social interactions among children that has become a national concern is bullying.

Kubler Ross's Stages of Dying

Elisabeth Kübler-Ross significantly advanced psychology's understanding of the process of dying with her influential book, On Death and Dying (1969). She focused on studying terminally ill individuals and outlined five stages commonly experienced when coping with death: denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance.
In denial, individuals reject the reality of their condition, often thinking, "This isn't true; I feel fine," as a way to protect themselves from emotional distress. Anger...

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Epidemiology
  • Mental Health Research

Background:

  • Suicide is a significant global health issue, claiming over 1 million lives annually and ranking as the 13th leading cause of death.
  • Specific regions like China, India, and Japan bear a disproportionate burden, while Sri Lanka has seen a dramatic rise in its suicide rate.
  • Psychosocial, cultural, and environmental factors, alongside chronic mental illnesses such as depression and alcohol use disorders, contribute to suicide risk.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To highlight suicide as a preventable cause of premature death.
  • To underscore the multifaceted risk factors influencing suicide rates.
  • To advocate for comprehensive prevention strategies at interpersonal, national, and global levels.

Main Methods:

  • The abstract synthesizes existing knowledge on suicide prevalence, risk factors, and prevention strategies.
  • It draws upon global data and trends, referencing initiatives like World Suicide Prevention Day.
  • It emphasizes the impact of psychosocial, cultural, and environmental factors on suicide.

Main Results:

  • Suicide is a preventable cause of death with significant global impact.
  • Untreated mental health conditions, particularly severe depression and alcohol use disorders, elevate suicide risk.
  • Interpersonal support and national-level government commitment are vital for prevention.

Conclusions:

  • Effective suicide prevention requires a multi-pronged approach, integrating awareness, research, and policy.
  • Global collaboration and information sharing are essential for identifying trends and implementing successful prevention activities.
