Framing Effects

7.6K
Information is everywhere and its presentation—such as how and when items are presented—can impact our perceptions and decisions surrounding the info. This broad concept umbrellas framing effects—influences that occur due to the way information is framed in its appearance, whether it’s purely the order or the specific wording of a message. Let’s take a look at numerous ways in which two versions of something can objectively say the same thing, yet we respond in...

Techniques of Therapeutic Communication II: Focusing, Paraphrasing, and Summarizing

9.6K
Focusing involves centering a conversation on a message's critical elements or concepts. Focusing is valuable if the talk is vague or patients begin to repeat themselves. Sometimes, when patients are asked about their symptoms, they may go off-topic and try to tell their entire life story. Respectfully, the nurse should bring the conversation back into focus.
This therapeutic technique can also be used when a patient brings up pertinent information during a health-related conversation. The...

Local Anesthetics: Clinical Application as Spinal Anesthesia

888
Spinal anesthetics are given during lower abdomen and limb surgeries to block sensory and motor neurons. They are administered in the mid to low lumbar regions, primarily acting on the cauda equina's nerve roots. The blockade level depends on the local anesthetic (LA) concentration. Usually, low LA concentrations are sufficient to block sensory fibers, while only high LA concentrations block motor fibers. Other factors like injection volume and speed, the patient's posture, and the drug...

Somatic Spinal Reflexes01:22

Somatic Spinal Reflexes

3.1K
Somatic spinal reflexes are rapid, involuntary muscular responses to external stimuli that involve the somatic musculature and the spinal cord.
One of the most well-known somatic spinal reflexes is the stretch reflex, which is activated by the sudden stretching of a muscle. This reflex involves the activation of specialized sensory receptors called muscle spindles, which are located in the muscle tissue and detect changes in the length and speed of muscle contractions. When a muscle is suddenly...

Spinal Cord01:26

Spinal Cord

742
The spinal cord, a critical component of the central nervous system, extends from the base of the brainstem to the lumbar region of the vertebral column. It is essential for maintaining physical stability and facilitating communication between the brain and peripheral parts of the body.

Spinal Nerves: Anatomy01:23

Spinal Nerves: Anatomy

5.1K
Spinal nerves are pivotal conduits in the nervous system, bridging the central nervous system (CNS) with the peripheral nervous system (PNS). These nerves enable a complex communication network between the brain, spinal cord, and the rest of the body, facilitating sensory input, motor output, and autonomic functions.
There are 31 bilateral pairs of spinal nerves, each emerging from the spinal cord through the intervertebral foramina—openings between adjacent vertebrae. These nerves are...

Area of Science:

  • Chiropractic professional development
  • Healthcare specialization
  • Professional identity in healthcare

Background:

  • The chiropractic profession, 125 years old, experiences significant internal conflict, particularly between

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose the formal recognition of "wellness chiropractic" as a post-professional specialty.
  • To address the internal divisions within the chiropractic profession by creating a structured pathway for wellness-focused practitioners.
  • To enhance the integration and public perception of chiropractic care.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of internal conflicts and differing professional goals within chiropractic.
  • Comparison with established post-professional specialty models in medicine and other healthcare fields.
  • Recommendation for developing consensus-based educational programs and protected titles for wellness chiropractic.

Main Results:

  • Existing post-professional training exists for specialties like sports and pediatrics, but not for wellness care.
  • The lack of formal recognition for wellness chiropractic contributes to professional division.
  • Establishing wellness chiropractic as a specialty could foster vertical integration with other healthcare providers.

Conclusions:

  • Wellness chiropractic should be recognized as a post-professional specialty, mirroring models in medicine.
  • Consensus among stakeholders on educational program scope and depth is crucial for implementation.
  • Formal recognition and evidence-based programs can lead to an extended scope of practice and increased public appeal for chiropractic.
