Aggression

28.0K
Humans engage in aggression when they seek to cause harm or pain to another person. Aggression takes two forms depending on one’s motives: hostile or instrumental. Hostile aggression is motivated by feelings of anger with intent to cause pain; a fight in a bar with a stranger is an example of hostile aggression. In contrast, instrumental aggression is motivated by achieving a goal and does not necessarily involve intent to cause pain (Berkowitz, 1993); a contract killer who murders for...

Coping Strategies: Problem Focused

121
Coping strategies are methods people use to manage, tolerate, or reduce the effects of stressors. These strategies involve both behavioral and psychological actions to handle stressful situations. One common approach is problem-focused coping, which aims to change or eliminate the source of stress rather than merely addressing its consequences. This method involves taking direct action to resolve the issue causing stress.
For example, consider a student who struggles to understand their...

Effective problem-solving consists of two steps: 1. identifying the problem and 2. selecting the appropriate problem-solving strategy (i.e., a plan of action used to find a solution). Humans use four problem-solving strategies:

Coping Strategies: Emotion Focused01:20

Coping Strategies: Emotion Focused

133
Emotion-focused coping refers to a set of strategies aimed at managing the emotional impact of stressors, rather than directly addressing their causes. This approach involves altering one's emotional response to stressful situations to reduce their psychological effects. For example, individuals might talk with a friend or engage in activities like journaling to express their feelings. Such actions can help achieve emotional clarity or release, providing the psychological stability needed...

Persuasion Strategies

39.2K
Researchers have tested many persuasion strategies, including the foot-in-the door and the door-in-the-face techniques, in a variety of contexts. Ultimately, the principles are effective in selling products and changing people’s attitude, ideas, and behaviors (Cialdini & Goldstein, 2004).

Area of Science:

  • Cardiovascular Surgery
  • Thoracic Surgery
  • Surgical Complications

Background:

  • Tracheo-innominate fistula (TIF) is a known complication of tracheostomy, often presenting with a herald bleed.
  • Aortotracheal fistula shares similar pathology and presentation with TIF but lacks a standardized surgical repair.
  • These fistulas pose significant risks due to their proximity to major vascular structures.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a reproducible surgical technique for repairing aortotracheal fistulas.
  • To describe a novel approach for managing a rare but life-threatening surgical complication.
  • To evaluate the safety and durability of the proposed repair method.

Main Methods:

  • The study proposes a surgical strategy involving ascending and aortic arch replacement.
  • A pericardial patch is utilized to repair the tracheal defect.
  • Omental flap coverage is employed for reinforcement and protection.

Main Results:

  • The described surgical intervention provides a safe and durable repair for aortotracheal fistulas.
  • The technique is reproducible for the specific anatomic configuration of the fistula.
  • Despite being a significant undertaking for a small defect, the repair is effective.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed surgical treatment offers a viable solution for aortotracheal fistulas.
  • This approach ensures a safe and durable repair, addressing a critical unmet need in surgical management.
  • The technique is adaptable and reproducible for appropriate cases.
