A process model of healing and personal transformation in persons with chronic skin wounds.

Utilizing Newman's research as praxis process, this research examined the patterns of those living with chronic skin wounds. Ten men and 8 women, primarily of retirement age and living with chronic skin wounds for a year or more, reflected upon important relationships and life events during two in-depth interviews and a self-expressive drawing. Emerging from each participant's pattern was the link among human development, expanding consciousness, and processing a serious physical threat. Considering data across participants, five themes emerged from the data with evolution of a process model of wholistic healing that has implications for advanced nursing practice.

Personalizing web information for patients: linking patient medical data with the web via a patient personal knowledge base.

This paper describes ongoing study that examines problems with existing patient health information sources and investigates an approach for linking (i.e. integrating) data from a patient's medical record(s) with relevant health information on the web. The aim is to provide patients with simplified, customized and controlled access to web information. Data from patient medical records are extracted and linked with relevant health information on the web through a web search service. These are made available to patients through a web portal that we refer to as the patient knowledge base (PatientKB). Our integration approach utilizes term semantics (i.e. meaning) to enrich the web search and simplify medical terms for patients. In the current implementation, patients have guided, secure and relatively customized access to basic and relevant web information on their diagnoses. Future implementation will attempt to achieve further customization, extensibility and safety features. This paper investigates how ideas presented in an earlier study can be implemented.
