Psychology. 6: What's your problem? A consideration of problem solving.

A substantial component of nursing is concerned with solving problems, or helping patients and clients to solve problems for themselves. This article considers problem solving in a range of nursing practice settings and outlines how psychology can help to explain and inform this process. The diverse nature of problems which nurses might encounter in their work are discussed and recommendations for the application of problem-solving strategies are offered. No single approach to problem solving is sufficiently flexible to address the complex challenges met in nursing practice, and hence an eclectic approach to problem solving is proposed.

The distribution of blood groups and HLA types in 59 cases of congenital dislocation of the hip.

One-hundred-and-eight patients with congenital dislocation of the hip (CDH) were ABO and Rh(D) typed. Fifty-nine of these patients were also HLA-A, -B, and -DR typed whenever technically possible and in addition the Rhesus, MNSs, Lutheran, Kell, Duffy, and Kidd groups were determined as part of a wider study into hereditary factors in CDH. No association was found between CDH and any of these red cell groups and HLA types. A slight trend towards a decrease of the HLA antigens B7 and DR2 was noted, and a slight increase of B27 and DR7. The increase in frequency of group B present in Italian children was not found in this British study, nor did we find an increase of HLA-A1 as previously reported in Greek children with CDH.
