Article Synopsis
- The study compares frailty assessments of orthopedic surgery residents and expert geriatricians using the Clinical Frailty Scale (CFS) in hip fracture patients, analyzing data from 2015 to 2019.
- Results showed that orthopedic residents often rated patients as less frail than geriatricians, but overall, their assessments were found to have good agreement.
- The findings indicate that while orthopedic residents can reliably assess frailty, they may underestimate its severity, suggesting a need for better integration of comprehensive care models for frail patients.
Introduction: This cross-sectional study explores the contributions of personal and contextual factors in the adjustment process of a sample of internationally mobile children and adolescents having relocated to Switzerland. Based on evolutionary developmental theories and recommendations by Research Domain Criteria and The Hierarchical Taxonomy of Psychopathology theoretical frameworks, we hypothesized and tested a heuristic model of TCK adjustment, aiming to identify prevention and treatment targets tailored for our sampled population.
Methods: We assessed the relationships in the hypothesized models, particularly how perceived and acculturative stress influence TCK adjustment and whether the relationship between the predictors of TCK stress and the outcomes of TCK adjustment are mediated by resilience and family functioning.
Objective: To investigate any association between expressions of parents' continuing bond with their stillborn baby and bereavement adaptation.
Background: Continuing bonds theory suggests that bereaved parents adapt to the loss of their child by sharing and transforming mental representations of the child, allowing them to be integrated into parents' everyday lives. Little is known about the mental health benefits of expressing continuing bonds following stillbirth.
