Massage Therapy for Stress Management: Implications for Nursing Practice

Françoise Labrique-Walusis; Kathy J. Keister; Anne C. Russell

Unresolved stress has been shown to have numerous adverse effects on the body. A review of the literature has revealed 2 major themes: (1) research that argues that massage has a direct relationship with positive health outcomes and (2) research that stresses that although there are little or no measurable physiological changes that occur from massage, patients’ perceptions of stress and anxiety were significantly reduced. The simple act of touch-focused care, even a simple 5-min hand or foot massage, can be useful in lowering a patients perceived level of stress. Further research is necessary on the benefits and risks of implementing massage therapy in the hospital setting.


Dimensions of Critical Care Nursing | 2009

Prevention of sternal wound infections after coronary artery bypass graft surgery with use of insulin drug therapy: a review of the literature.

Maggie Killian; Anne C. Russell; Kathy J. Keister

Diabetes is a disease that can increase the risks of developing cardiac problems, which can include coronary artery bypass graft surgery. These patients are at an increased risk of developing serious complications after this surgery, including deep sternal wound infections. In addition, nondiabetic patients may also develop this complication. Therefore, it is essential to monitor and maintain glucose levels after open heart surgery. This literature review discusses some of the studies in this area.

Rizalea B. Aguilar; Kathy J. Keister; Anne C. Russell

Aortic valvuloplasty: potential nursing diagnoses.

Anne C. Russell; Susan M. Blake

The use of transluminal balloon angioplasty has become widespread in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. Since critical care nurses are responsible for the assessment and management after the procedure in the critical care unit, the authors provide information on the pathophysiology and potential nursing diagnoses for these patients. In this way, the critical care nurse can support the patient before, during, and after the procedure.
