Clinical pathway is a management tool utilized in hospitals in order to reduce variation in medical care as well as control health quality. Poor adherence to the clinical pathway documents most probably leads to deficiency in quality of care. This paper presents the result of an investigation for the role of clinical pathway document component (design) on the use of the clinical pathway tool in practice. We checked the content of three clinical pathway designs using the Integrated Care Pathway Appraisal Tool (ICPAT). Negative correlation between the compliance to ICPAT indicators and the completeness of third clinical pathway design has been obtained. Standard criteria in designing clinical pathway shows discrepancy which might be due to reluctances among the users to follow the lengthy procedure. In conclusion, user’s preferences need to be considered for more practical use of clinical pathway beside the standard documentation perfection in order to achieve its objectives.

Epistemology of Health, Quality of Life, Social Connectedness and the Contribution of Sports for Subjective Wellbeing In this article, literature about the perspectives on the understanding and epistemology of health is addressed. This evolutionary process has opened new terms for a wider understanding of health, quality of life and well-being. From this, concepts of health are addressed through the role of personal consciousness and intentionality within the group context, and the specific term subjective social well-being (SSWB) will be employed to explore social experiences through sports. Because health is a complex issue and because interventions need to be similarly complex, the science underpinning this work must integrate information from the many disciplines (medicine, nursing, psychology, sociology, anthropology, economics, political science, biology, history, law, and demography, among others). Finally, the role of physical activities and sports for the attaining of SSWB and fundamental questions for researchers will be discussed.

In this social and cultural framework, the role of Nurse Science becomes very significant, as health is considered to be the means of well being. Didactical interventions are important to that aim. On the other hand, research is significant for the improvement of health and quality of life. Science and technology are rapidly improving, and legislation is following on an attempt to cover major issues on ethics and deontology. Nurses’ and other health scientists’ and officers’ views, perceptions and attitude on the concept of health and health promotion, as well as on other basic parameters, are critical. The philosophy of the present chapter consists of the following ideas: Presentation and discussion of theoretical pedagogic and ethical dimensions on health care and safety; Research and analysis of special didactical methods in a sustainable administration of health, aiming at ethics and education for health, quality and safety in health care.

Major depressive disorder (MDD) is an important cause of disability in the world. Depression has negative influences on a person’s mental and physical health, quality of life, and functioning. The pathophysiology of depression has not yet been confirmed. The traditional monoamine hypothesis of MDD could not explain the unsatisfactory treatment response of antidepressants. Thus, it is necessary to search other probable pathophysiology of MDD. In recent years, the role of glutamate neurotransmission in depression has drawn much attention. The N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) is a subclass of glutamate receptors and is implicated in the pathogenesis of MDD and other mental disorders. Furthermore, NMDAR ligands, such as ketamine and Dcycloserine, have shown antidepressive effects in several studies. The diagnosis of MDD depends on physician’s subjective evaluation which is often inconsistent. Therefore, reliable objective laboratory biomarkers are essential for more accurate and consistent diagnosis of MDD. In this review, we firstly described the structure and regulation of the NMDAR. We then searched different genes involved in the pathway of glutamatergic neurotransmission and NMDAR, including D-amino acids, glycine, and glutamate. Various related enzymes and transporters that play a role in the modulation of NMDAR neurotransmission were also surveyed. This review aims to investigate NMDAR related metabolism, which may serve as feasible indicators for MDD and may contribute to further exploration of reliable biomarkers for MDD and promote new treatment of depression.
