Optimizing Subsequent CARdiovascular Medication Reintroduction in the Intensive Care Unit.

Importance: Hospital admission for a critical illness episode creates communication breakpoints and can lead to medication discrepancies during hospital stays. Due to the patient's underlying condition and the care setting, chronic medications such as cardiovascular medication are often held, discontinued, or changed to alternative administration routes. Unfortunately, data on the optimal timing of cardiovascular drug reinitiation among intensive care unit (ICU) survivors are lacking.

The Use of Three-Dimensional Printing in Cardiac Structural Disease: A Review.

Objective: Three-dimensional printing (3DP), or additive fabrication, is a process in which a physical 3D model is created using a multitude of 2-dimensional images. This process has been applied to numerous surgical subspecialties with growing interest for the use of 3DP in adult structural heart disease. This scoping review evaluates the use of 3DP in transcatheter and surgical aortic and mitral valve interventions as well as left atrial appendage occlusion in terms of its practical and clinical application.

The return of the repressed. Psychology's problematic relations with psychoanalysis, 1909-1960.

When psychoanalysis first arrived in the United States, most psychologists ignored it. By the 1920s, however, psychoanalysis had so captured the public imagination that it threatened to eclipse experimental psychology entirely. This article analyzes the complex nature of this threat and the myriad ways that psychologists responded to it.

The structuring of identity among midlife women as a function of their degree of involvement in employment.

The place of employment and the diversity of its relations to other roles within the life structure of midlife women were investigated. Three groups were compared: Group I (n = 44) had a continuous low level of involvement in employment from their early 20s to their early 40s; Group II (n = 20) changed from low to high involvement; and Group III (n = 32) maintained a continuous high level of involvement. Retrospective reports regarding subjects' commitment to a number of different roles and feelings during their early 30s and early 40s constituted the data.

Modes of experiencing and adapting to retirement.

Retirement is typically viewed as a monolithic event which affects all individuals in generally the same way. As a way of beginning to transcend stereotypic views and understand the complex reality of how individuals actually experience retirement, this study was directed toward identifying and describing diversity in modes of retirement adaptation. Twenty-four individuals, drawn from a range of occupational groups, were intensively interviewed one month prior to and six to eight months following retirement.
