Abstract |
Extensive treatment requirements for patients in I.C.U. frequently result in interruption of their sleep. Sleep interruption can become sleep deprivation with physiological and psychological effects. To determine the amount of sleep patients in the I.C.U. received, a brief study was done in the form of a questionnaire to nursing staff. Noise levels in the I.C.U. were recorded over a period of time. From the study it was concluded the majority of patients were sleep deprived |

Abstract |
All Nurse/Doctor Television programs were observed and questionnaires completed over a period of two weeks, during August 1983, to study the image of Nurses as portrayed on Television, and to compare the findings with those of previous American studies in particular the studies done by Kalisch, B.J. and Kalisch, P.A. ( 1982). A total of 20 programs were viewed, divided into categories and analysed. The main categories were general and personal data, characteristics portrayed by nurses and activities performed as part of the professional role. Results indicated that overall the portrayed image of Nurses is a negative one which continues to enforce the traditional broad stereotypes held of Nurses. Namely the 'angel of mercy', sex object, Doctor's handmaiden or battle axe dragon. This study supports the previous American studies and indicates that the image has not changed a great deal since 1979 |

Abstract |
Acute illness as lived experience gives the person involved an understanding and knowledge of how they perceive a crisis in their lives. It also provides meaning and orientation to their world. Any perception a person has to an acute illness is a lived experience for that person. It is very personal and will live with that person forever |
