Advance care directives and the position in Ireland: what lessons can Ireland learn from the United Kingdom, the United States and Europe?

Advance care directives and the position in Ireland: what lessons can Ireland learn from the United Kingdom, the United States and Europe?
(2008)
Donnellan, Laura
Abstract:
An Advance care directive entitles a person to request in advance either the refusal of or consent to certain medical treatment if that person is not competent to consent or refuse at the time such refusal or consent is required. The 2003 Law Reform Commission’s Consultation Paper on Law and the Elderly briefly mentioned advance directives. However, the Paper decided to leave the issue to a future Paper that would give a more comprehensive analysis. There is no Irish legislation on the matter and consequently the legal position is unclear. The English Mental Capacity Act 2005 has given recognition to advance directives under section 24. It is interesting to note that only refusal is covered by the Act. The 2005 Law Reform Commission Consultation Paper on Vulnerable Adults discusses the issue of advance directives in more detail. This Paper will examine the Irish position of advance directives. The British Mental Capacity Act and recent case law will provide a comparative analysis. T...

Comhairle na n-Ospideal review of surgical services in the Western Health Board.
(1986)
Comhairle na n-Ospideal; Department of Health
Abstract:
In a letter to the Comhairle dated 23rd Janaury, 1986, the Department of Health, in the light of pending consultant vacancies in general surgery in the Western Health Board area, suggested that "it would be appropriate at t'his stage, to carry out a full examination of the requirements in surgery at Galway and this examination might usefully be extended ·to the Western Health Board area as a whole". The Comhairle agreed to undertake a review of surgical services and, for this purpose, appointed a sub-committee whose membership comprised seven members of the Comhairle (including four surgeons, one physician, one anaesthetist and one .administrator) and the Chief Officer.

Cystic Fibrosis Registry of Ireland
Abstract:
The field of cystic fibrosis is a complex and intricate one. All of the professionals who work in this field realise that they are dependent on each other in order to be effective. They are also very aware that each and every person with cystic fibrosis is an individual who travels a different route. But it is widely agreed that there are fundamental similarities as well as differences. It follows then, that if we knew more about those similarities, better treatment interventions could be detected. These professionals carry on inherent belief that if all that we know about cystic fibrosis was before us in on orderly display, we could do a better iob.

Dog bite injuries to humans and the use of breed-specific legislation: a comparison of bites from legislated and non-legislated dog breeds
(2018)
Creedon, Nanci; Ó Súilleabháin, Páraic S.
Abstract:
Background: The primary objective of this study was to investigate if differences in dog bite characteristics exist amongst legislated and non-legislated dog breeds listed under breed-specific legislation in Ireland (age when bitten, anatomical bite locations, triggers for biting, victim's relationship with the dog, geographical location and owner presence, history of aggression, reporting bite incident to authorities, medical treatment required following the bite, and type of bite inflicted). A second objective of the current study was to investigate dog control officer's enforcement and perceptions of current legislation. Data for statistical analyses were collated through a nationally advertised survey, with Pearson Chi-square and Fisher's Exact Test statistical methods employed for analyses. A total of 140 incident surveys were assessed comprising of non-legislated (n = 100) and legislated (n = 40) dog bite incidents. Results: Legislated breeds were significantly ...

Dream machines
(2017)
Connor, Steven
Abstract:
Dream Machines is a history of imaginary machines and the ways in which machines come to be imagined. It considers seven different kinds of speculative, projected or impossible machine: machines for teleportation, dream-production, sexual pleasure and medical treatment and cure, along with ‘influencing machines’, invisibility machines and perpetual motion machines. The process of imagining ideal or impossible forms of machinery tends backwards or inwards, allowing a way for imagination itelf to be conceived as a kind of machinery, or ingenious engineering. Machines suggest to us ways of imagining the machinery we take ourselves to be, the workings not only of immune systems and neural networks, but also of dreams, desires and aspirations. This reflexivity means that representations of machines are always suffused with intense feeling. The larger aim of Dream Machines is to isolate a strain of the visionary that may be involved in all thinking and writing about machines. An imaginary...

Global DNA methylation is altered by neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy in rectal cancer and may predict response to treatment - A pilot study.

Abstract:
In rectal cancer, not all tumours display a response to neoadjuvant treatment. An accurate predictor of response does not exist to guide patient-specific treatment. DNA methylation is a distinctive molecular pathway in colorectal carcinogenesis. Whether DNA methylation is altered by neoadjuvant treatment and a potential response predictor is unknown. We aimed to determine whether DNA methylation is altered by neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (CRT) and to determine its role in predicting response to treatment.

Guidelines for the management of leg ulcers in Ireland
(2002)
Grace, Pierce (editor)
Abstract:
Venous ulceration has long been seen as a Cinderella condition. This attitude has changed in recent time with the demonstration that control of venous hypertension using sophisticated compression systems, brings about healing in the majority of patients, without requirement for expensive in-hospital facilities. That challenges are now to achieve healing in resistant groups and to accelerate healing in others. Exciting new information is beginning to emerge from studies of local wound and systematic host molecular changes. It is clear that analysis of sequences of these molecular events in critical to the development of cytokine strategies capable of altering wound healing. It is probable that many ulcers in the future will be treated by a combination of local mechanical approaches and local systemic molecular strategies.

Ul Islam, J; Browne, R; Thornhill, J
Abstract:
Soft tissue and bony injuries are well described risks of the increasingly popular sport of mountain biking. Priapism, a persisting unwanted penile erection, as a result of perineal straddle injury due to a fall astride bicycle handlebar, is rare. We present a case of a competitive mountain biker with high flow priapism after such an injury who presented late but was successfully treated by non-invasive selective arterial embolization.

Abstract:
The Institute of Public health in Ireland (IPH) produces population prevalence estimates and forecasts for a number of chronic conditions among adults. IPH has now applied the methodology to examine health conditions and injuries among young children across the island of Ireland.This short report is a supplement to a previous IPH report that examines health conditions among three-year-olds in the Republic of Ireland. It provides estimates of the prevalence of injuries that required hospital admission or treatment among three-year-olds in the Republic of Ireland in 2011. The analysis identifies risk factors associated with child injuries and provides estimates of the prevalence of these conditions for each of the 34 administrative cities and counties.

Abstract:
Since remission is now possible in psoriatic arthritis (PsA) we wished to examine remission rates in PsA patients following anti tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha) therapy and to examine possible predictors of response.
Analysis of a prospective patient cohort attending a biologic clinic, between November 2004 and March 2008, was performed prior to commencing therapy and at regular intervals. Baseline clinical characteristics including demographics, previous disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (DMARD) response, tender and swollen joint counts, early morning stiffness, pain visual analogue score, patient global assessment, C reactive protein (CRP) and health assessment questionnaire (HAQ) were collected.
A total of 473 patients (152 PsA; 321 rheumatoid arthritis (RA)) were analyzed. At 12 months remission, defined according to the disease activity score using 28 joint count and CRP (DAS28-CRP), was achieved in 58% of PsA patients compared to 44% of RA patients, signific...

National Treatment Purchase Fund
Abstract:
The National Treatment Purchase Fund (NTPF) was set up by the Government to treat patients like you, who have been longest on public hospital waiting lists for an operation. The Minister for Health and Children has given special funding to the NTPF for this specific purpose. The NTPF is there to reduce the waiting time for public patients. Treatment is arranged in private hospitals in Ireland. Northern IreLand or England. As a result of the NTPF over 30,000 patients June 2005 have been treated and taken off public hospital waiting lists. The NTPF is arranging treatment each month for at least 1.000 public patients who are waiting over three months for an operation. The numbers of patients being treated monthly is rising . It is entirely your choice to take part in this initiative. Patients who choose treatment with the NTPF will receive their operation or procedure free of charge. Medical card entitlements are not affected in any way. Some people think because they are not seriously...
