Title Alternative Patient Participation in Shared Decision-Making: A Consideration of Aspects and Challenges
FullText URL interdisciplinary_6_17.pdf
Author YOSHIDA, Miho|
Abstract This paper traces the historical development of decision-making models in healthcare while exploring the meaning and practical significance of “patient participation” within the shared decision-making (SDM) framework. SDM is a recommended approach to clinical decision-making that emphasizes mutual information sharing and deliberation between physicians and patients. Traditional models often assume that patients can clearly articulate their values, preferences, and treatment goals. However, in actual clinical settings, particularly in cases of serious illness or life-threatening situations, patients frequently face emotional distress and psychological burdens, which can hinder their active participation in decision-making and the expression of their preferences. Based on SDM theory and practice reports, this study argues that SDM should not be viewed merely as a process that promotes patient choice. Even when patients choose not to actively participate and ultimately delegate decisions to healthcare providers or family members, such a choice can represent autonomous decision-making if it arises through meaningful communication and mutual understanding. This perspective calls for a more comprehensive and flexible interpretation of patient participation in SDM practice.

Title Alternative A Preliminary Study on Nursing Care Technology: A Case Study of Elderly Care
FullText URL interdisciplinary_6_7.pdf
Author YOSHIBA, Yasuyuki|
Abstract In the first part of this paper, it was confirmed that the term “kaigo” (nursing care) was coined and its meaning defined during discussions on enacting social welfare legislation accompanying societal aging, as the care aspect was being “differentiated” from the “family’s health and welfare functions.” The paper also examined how the term “kaigo gijutsu”(nursing care technique) has been defined and used. In the latter part, based on the author’s own definition of “kaigo gijutsu”(nursing care technology), an attempt was made to analyze examples of technology utilization in nursing care settings, focusing on papers published in specialized welfare and nursing care technology journals. Through this preliminary study, it was shown that the author’s definition of “nursing care technology” clearly distinguishes between the means for care activities—such as welfare equipment—and the care recipients and caregivers who make use of them, and that this definition is useful for grasping the essence of challenges in nursing care settings.

Abstract This cross-over controlled trial aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of two types of cold compresses (towels and ice packs) in alleviating itching among patients with atopic dermatitis. The study recruited 19 participants diagnosed with atopic dermatitis and suffering from chronic itching for over 6 months. Each participant received both types of cold compress interventions. Itching sensations were assessed repeatedly using a visual analogue scale before and after the application of the cold compress. The mean and standard deviation of itching scores for the towel intervention were 16.9 ± 19.1 (baseline) and 11.4 ± 16.1 (post-application). For the ice pack intervention, the scores were 13.6 ± 14.7 (baseline) and 6.2 ± 9.8 (post-application). Although there was a reduction in mean itching scores following the application of cold compresses, the differences were not statistically significant for either intervention. Despite the lack of statistical significance, this study suggests that cold compresses, which are user-friendly and inexpensive, may safely reduce subjective itching in patients with atopic dermatitis without causing pain or discomfort. However, further research with a larger sample size is needed to confirm these findings.

Title Alternative An examination of decision-making support at the end of life on relational autonomy theory
FullText URL interdisciplinary_5_11.pdf
Author SONOYAMA, Sumiyo|
Abstract In contemporary end-of-life care, it is difficult for patients to make decisions without the influence of society, family, and other factors. In many cases, patients have the capacity to make the decisions; nevertheless, they have difficulty expressing their own will because of the influence of their relationships and environment. Patient concerns about the burden of care and also the social and economic impacts on family members often hinder their use of imagination and decision-making. Therefore, this study has examined how patients with decision-making capacities could achieve autonomy under the influence of their relationships with their surroundings. The method of decision-making support provided by nurses to patients was examined using relational autonomy theory. Relational autonomy theory attempts to reconceptualize autonomy through feminists who criticize individualist theories of autonomy.

Title Alternative Corporate decision-making process for exploration time
FullText URL interdisciplinary_5_1.pdf
Author SHIMIZU, Takeshi|
Abstract In order for companies to innovate through business co-creation, it is necessary to explore a wide range of external knowledge and technologies. However, there is no clear answer as to how much time should be spent for exploration. Under these circumstances, companies must take into account constraints such as the amount of management resources that can be invested, and make decisions about the time to spend for exploration. The purpose of this paper is to clarify the process of how companies that have introduced corporate accelerator program recognize the relationship between the program period and the results of business co-creation, and how they make decisions about the program period. We conducted a case study of several companies that have introduced corporate accelerator program in Japan. In addition, this paper established a hypothesis about decision-making about the time for exploration from case studies.
