Family nursing curricula in U.S. schools of nursing.

Care of individual clients has been the traditional focus of health care and therefore nursing education. Recently, the family as a unit of care has received more attention. This study provides a current and accurate description of family nursing content, summarizing the major concepts, definitions, course titles, textbooks, and assessment instruments used in teaching family nursing in baccalaureate and graduate programs. The findings identify trends in family nursing education that will provide direction to educators and clinicians planning to strengthen family nursing in their curricula.

Urban distribution of Aedes triseriatus in northern Indiana.

Ovitraps were used to determine the distribution of Aedes triseriatus among forty-eight 1.2 km2 quadrants in urban South Bend and Mishawaka, Indiana. Oviposition paddles from 96 ovitraps were collected for 13 weeks from June to September, 1986. A total of 82,974 eggs was collected. Eggs were present in each quadrant at least once and were found in most quadrants on 6 or more collection dates. Ninety-two percent of the ovitraps were positive at least once, indicating ubiquitous distribution throughout the urban area. The eggs collected were 80-90% Ae. triseriatus, the remainder being Ae. Hendersoni. Effectiveness of large (3,100 ml) and small (350 ml) ovitraps was compared. The large ovitraps exceeded the small by 319% for eggs/positive ovitrap and 486% in numbers of positive ovitraps.

The changing nature of fatherhood: the nurse and social policy.

Fathers, fathering and fatherhood are topics which receive little attention throughout the world's professional literature. Only recently has there been increased interest and research on the changing roles of men with particular emphasis on nurturing and parenting. A body of knowledge has started to accumulate which investigates the role of fathers with their families. The purpose of this article is to summarize the research literature about fatherhood in the United States of America today and to discuss the implications of this research for the practice of nursing. This analysis synthesizes the literature using two different perspectives. The developmental perspective traces the role of fathers from family planning through the family life cycle to grandfatherhood. The social contextual perspective summarizes the literature related to fathers for three common variations in society today: single custodial fathers, fathers in dual earner families, and adolescent fathers. Lastly, implications for nursing practice and social policy are discussed.

Familial occurrence of colon and uterine carcinoma and of lymphoproliferative malignancies: clinical description.

Carcinoma of the colon occurred in four generations of a family, including two of three siblings of one generation and eight of 19 members of the next generation. In addition, uterine cancer or lymphoproliferative malignancies were found in two family members. Of 41 members of the fourth generation, two were found to have colon cancer and one had malignant lymphoma. Clinical features were similar to those patients with "cancer family syndrome." Although a precise genetic mechanism is uncertain, it appeared to be transmitted as an autosomal dominant character.
