| Abstract |
The study explored the basis of the relatively low uptake of cervical screening and practice of breast self-examination among New Zealand women. Consistent with an interpretive approach to social phenomena it was anticipated that part of the explanation would lie in the meanings which women attach in general and to these specific health-protection practices.Theoretical sampling was effected by semi-structured interviews with 45 women. Transcripts of these interviews provided the substance data which were then analysed by the process of constant comparative analysis and other grounded theory strategies for analysis.The concept of a health-protective paradox centered around the core-variable 'vigilance-harmonizing which was generated to reconcile the seeming inconsistencies within, and between, individual women and their health practices. This conceptualisation was developed from the substantive date in order to provide a model designed to increase the effectiveness of nursing interventions for this area. The model, by illuminating processes from the client's perspective then can indicate those processes most suitable for incorporation in effective health education measures designed to promote the uptake of cervical screening and breast self-examination by women.As an adjunct to the study, a breast cancer case history is presented which shows the theory-in-use. The use of this case-history lies in the fact that it shares the substantive area of inquiry which serves to accentuate the viability, relevance and applicability of the grounded theory |

| Abstract |
This is a report of a study into the night-time experience of elderly hospitilised adults and the nurses who care for them. A grounded theory approach was used for the analysis of data and subsequent generation of a theoretical description an partial explanation of patient experiences, nursing actions and nurse-patient interactions.Data were gathered through observation, interview, document audit and literature review; tow general medical wards in a large regional hospital were the focus of field methods of data collection.It is argued that the night-time experiences of elderly hospitalized adults are to a large degree dependent on the individual patterns of sleep and waking behaviour of these people in their normal environments. If individualised care is given, nurses must be aware of people's usual patterns of behaviour.Nurses working at night engage in a series of complex decision sin the course of their interaction with patients. They work under constraints not present during the daytime, and are highly dependent on co-operation from colleagues on other shifts for information which would enable them to deliver optimum care at night. At the same time, night nurses have access to information from and about patients which would be invaluable to a total assessment of any patient's health state.Considerations of sleep and sleep are relevant to nurses working all shifts. The findings of the study have implications in terms of nurses' knowledge of all aspects of sleep; assessment practices; nurse-patient and nurse-nurse communication; nurse-patient relationships at night; wars management; and the independence of nurses |
