Nurses’ Perceptions of Ayurvedic Medicine Compared to Western Medicine - in Kerala, India : An empirical study / Sjuksköterskors syn på ayurvedisk medicin jämfört med västerländsk medicin - i Kerala, Indien : En empirisk studieBoström, Sofia, Hugsén, Sofia January 2022 (has links)
Introduction/background: Ayurveda is an ancient holistic medical system largely used in India. Complementary and alternative forms of medicine (CAM) like Ayurveda is starting to spread to the western parts of the world. In Sweden, there is an ongoing project of integrating CAM methods in Swedish health care. Research has shown that this has been beneficial for patients and can reduce care costs. Despite the popularity of CAM methods, knowledge of the methods might be deficient among Swedish healthcare staff. Aim: The aim of this study was to examine registered nurses’ perception of the use of ayurvedic medicine compared to western medicine in a hospital in Kerala, India. Method: A qualitative method was used with an inductive design. Data was collected through semi-structured interviews with five registered nurses. A thematic analysis was used to analyze the data. Result: The analysis resulted in three themes: Pros and cons, To combine or not? and Negotiating the use of Ayurveda. Conclusion: Ayurveda can be helpful in treating less critical conditions. Western medicine was seen as more relevant when treating more serious illnesses. Ayurvedic treatments was perceived to take longer and have more side effects. A combination of the two medical approaches was not recommended, however, Ayurveda could work as a complement to western medicine in terms of less acute conditions.

Zdravotní systém v Číně pohledem typologie welfare State / Chinese Healthcare System in Welfare State TypologyRen, Wang January 2021 (has links)
The author studied the welfare state typology in China from a health care perspective. This study aims to figure out what type of welfare typology works in Chinese health care system through comparative welfare state typology, specifically the decommodification principle proposed by Esping-Andersen (2019) and health care decommodification index put forward by Bambra (2006). Studying the classification of Chinese welfare state typology by analysing the Chinese health care system and comparing it with other countries in the world within the scope of welfare state typology, helps China enhancing the public administration. The author found that China belongs to medium decommodification group which means it is the same decommodification level as Conservative-Corporatist regimes, but also indicates there's a huge improvement potential to high decommodification group in the future. Keywords Welfare State Typology; China; Chinese Health Care System; Health Decommodification Index Range of the Thesis: 66 pages

Quality of Life and the Health Care System in New River Valley, Virginia: Residents' Perceptions and ExperiencesKemp, Audrey June 17 April 2008 (has links)
The present study involved the implementation of one component, Community Health Status Assessment, of a comprehensive, strategic planning tool, Mobilizing for Action through Planning and Partnerships (MAPP), to qualitatively uncover the perceptions of the quality of life and local health care system of 28 residents in New River Valley (NRV), Virginia. The current study represents the initial qualitative study utilizing MAPP in Virginia. Interviewees perceived an overall good quality of life (e.g., ample green space, safe neighborhoods), with an urgent need for health care reform, affordable insurance, and transportation, particularly for after-hours medical care. The current study also reviews the specific findings from the one-on-one interviews, and provides a step-by-step look at the MAPP process for potential users as applied to a real-world community, specifically, the NRV. / Ph.

The district health information system (DHIS) as the support mechanism for strengthening the health care systemVan den Bergh, Christa 03 1900 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to show how information from the District Health Information System can be used to empower managers to make evidence-based decisions that will strengthen the health care system to reduce the under-five mortality rate.
A quantitative, contextual, exploratory evaluative and descriptive approach was followed and a data extraction framework, based on systems theory, was developed to guide the process of extracting existing routine data.
A results-based approach was used to measure under-five mortality related health care in terms of impact, outcomes, outputs, processes and inputs. The study has highlighted that proxy indicators obtained this way places health care managers in the position to monitor progress towards achieving the Millennium Development Goal for child mortality in the interim periods between large population surveys.
The findings displayed in the diagnostic performance profile revealed that drastic interventions are required to reduce the under-five mortality rate. / Health Studies / M.A. (Health Studies)

Les usages médicaux du social : Médecine générale et inégalités / Medical Uses of Social : General Practice and InequalitiesBirouste, Guilhem 16 December 2014 (has links)
La France est caractérisée par un bon état de santé global et d'importantes inégalités sociales de santé. Le renouveau d'intérêt pour ces dernières est l'occasion de questionner une définition univoque centrée sur les résultats au détriment des procédures, dans un pays qui a axé ses politiques de lutte sur le système de soins. La médecine générale y a une place particulière par son apparition récente en tant que spécialité universitaire et la nécessité de se définir qui s'ensuit. Elle est décrite tout à la fois comme pivot du système de soins, agent de santé publique ou chantre d'une relation inter-individuelle et d'une prise en charge globale. Si la médecine est fondée sur les données de la science, elle est aussi une profession prudentielle en ce qu'elle prend en compte des situations singulières, générant de l'incertitude dans la pratique. Parmi les sources de singularité, l'aspect social, tant du patient que du médecin, est à considérer. Dans sa pratique, ce dernier éprouve cependant une diversité de social. Tantôt obstacle à son activité professionnelle et vu comme extérieur au médical, tantôt élément apparenté aux données de la science par l'épidémiologie, il peut aussi être une brique de la construction individuelle du patient sur laquelle s'appuyer, conduisant parfois à une moralisation des conduites et des identités. Les caractéristiques sociales du médecin sont quant à elles souvent oubliées, comme s'il était neutre ou simple représentant de la science. C'est pourtant dans l'interaction entre ces deux mondes que se jouent aussi les inégalités sociales de santé et tout se passe comme si le médecin ne pouvait bien soigner que ses semblables. / France is characterized by a good overall health status and high social inequalities in the health sector. The renewed interest in health inequalities is the opportunity to question a unique definition focused on results at the expense of processes, in a country where policies on tackling inequalities are based on the health care system. General practice has a particular position in this system, as a new academic speciality, which still needs to figure out how to define itself. It is described simultaneously as a heath care system gatekeeper, a public health officer or an advocate for inter-individual relationship and holistic care. While medicine is based on scientific evidence, it is also a prudential profession as it considers singular situations, generating uncertainty in practice. Among singular sources, social characteristics of both patients and doctors have to be considered. However, in their practice, physicians experience a diversity of social. Sometimes a barrier to the professional activity and considered external to the medical world, sometimes considered as part of scientific evidences by epidemiology, it could also be considered as a component of the individual construction of the patient on which the physician can rely, with the potential to lead to a moralization of behaviours and identities. The physician's social characteristics are often omitted, as if doctors were neutral or mere representatives of science. It is however in the interaction between these two worlds that social determinants of health inequalities can be found, and it seems that a physician could only provide good care to patients sharing the same similarities.

Le système de santé brésilien et les droits des usagers / The Brazilian health-care system and the rights of usersBehrens, Ronaldo 18 June 2014 (has links)
Le système de santé brésilien bénéficie d’atouts indéniables depuis sa création il y a 25 ans et aussi en particulier depuis l’évolution de la condition sociale de la population à la suite de la stabilité monétaire, de l’organisation de l’État et de politiques sociales en faveur des plus démunis. Cependant, la participation directe des usagers dans le système reste limitée, malgré l’influence du mouvement pour la santé (dit « mouvement sanitariste ») et le fait que la « participation de la collectivité » ait été consacrée à l'article 198 de la Constitution de 1988 comme un principe déterminant du système. Or, la population souhaite participer activement pour résoudre des problèmes importants concernant la structure du système ; cette volonté peut être illustrée par le nombre important d’actions judiciaires intentées contre le système public ou privé, les professionnels et les hôpitaux. Pour résoudre ce problème et favoriser la participation des usagers, la solution serait de présenter le système brésilien aux Français, de développer des échanges internationaux d’informations (théoriques ou pratiques) et de modifier le système en transplantant au Brésil certaines règles de droit français, notamment des dispositions de la loi française du 4 mars 2002 (loi dite « Kouchner »). / After 25 years of existence, the Brazilian health-care system shows good results, mainly because our population's social condition has improved, mostly through the advent of currency stability and State organization and, also, through the transfer of income to the poverty-stricken populations. Nevertheless, despite having been created from a people-driven movement (the so-called sanitary movement) and having citizen participation as one of its tenets, the Brazilian health-care system does not allow for a direct contribution by the users who, in view of the system's serious structural problems, have been demanding further participation, which can be seen through the increase in number of lawsuits against the public and the private systems and against professionals and hospitals. To face up to this problem and make the participation of the citizen an effective one, we take this opportunity to introduce the French system to the Brazilian system, to encourage further exchange between these two countries and draw on the former for inspiration on the evolution of the latter, specifically with respect to some aspects of Kouchner Act dated March 4, 2002.
