| Abstract |
This reports an audit of the assessment practices at Christchurch Hospital, compared to international guidelines. The clinical notes of all patients who were re- admitted acutely with chest pain within six months of PCI procedures performed between 1/4/05 and 30/9/05 were audited. Ethics approval was granted and an audit tool was designed based on the 2000 ACC/AHA Guidelines for the management of patients with unstable angina. The purpose of the audit was to determine to what extent best practice guidelines were followed in the assessment of patients re-admitted with chest pain and to determine if there were any indicators (lesional, procedural or risk factors for restenosis) that predicted a normal or abnormal repeat coronary angiogram. 448 consecutive patients had PCI procedures, 36 patients represented acutely with chest pain and had repeat coronary angiography. In 18 patients the coronary angiogram was unchanged, 11 patients demonstrated instent restenosis, one patient demonstrated thrombus and six patients developed new lesions. The authors concluded that at Christchurch Hospital assessment practices are consistent with international guidelines. Of the patients who had repeat angiography, 50% had no coronary obstruction for the cause of pain. There was a relatively low incidence of acute representation with chest pain. These results suggest a revision of the guidelines for repeat angiography following PCI is warranted. |

| Abstract |
This report presents the findings of the developmental evaluation programme for the three-year innovation project. It includes the model of the integrative nursing service scheme with mobile whanau/family nurses as the hub of healthcare provision for a new paradigm of service design and delivery spanning primary-secondary-tertiary sectors. The form of healthcare the local people received, the nature of the nursing practice and role, service delivery and employment parameters required to support the nurses in practice are presented. The service configuration model subsequently gave the structure to Lake Taupo Primary Health Organisation with the hub of family nurses with a mobile comprehensive practice. |

| Abstract |
A descriptive survey was utilised to obtain the opinions of Waikato hospital nurses, about the current rostering system, and sequential roistering. Two hundred questionnaires were sent out to staff nurses and enrolled nurses, selected by systematic sample from a random base. A total of 186 (95%) questionnaires were returned for analysis.Results from this research showed a marked difference of opinion between full-time and part-time staff. The current roistering system was favoured by part-time staff, whereas the full-time staff felt they were disadvantaged by this system, and showed a positive interest in trying a sequential roster.Nurses opinions of 6-7 day stretches and short changes and the effects on themselves, support the research done in an American study on circadian rhythms and indicates that the current system is not conducive to optional physical, psychological and emotional well-being. From the results of this study, it would seem appropriate for nurse administrators to recognise and respect nurses' professional standards and eliminate obstacles which prevent the achievement of desired standards of care, and accountability |
