Authors: M Durai Pandian
Published: November 2019

The spread out of wireless mesh network has made possible the extended range of communication network that are impractical due to environmental changes in a wired access point, these wireless mesh network does not require much competence to set it up as it can be set very fast at a cheap rate, and the conveyancing of messages in it happens by selecting the shortest path, these wireless mesh built-in with irrepressible and invulnerable identities come with an endurance to temporary congestion and individual node failure. This results in an architecture providing a better coverage, flaw indulgent with higher bandwidth compared to other wireless distributed systems. But faces the limitation on power conservation. The battery activated mesh nodes loses their resources on perception, processing and transmission of the data’s, though these batteries or accumulators comes with energy regaining capability still draw backs show up as their nature of energy regaining are unexposed. So the performance analysis of fly wireless network which proposes a uninterrupted wireless mesh networks aims at providing a best measure of performance that is the best quality of service on the meshwork by providing an improved energy gleaning using potency segregation (IGPS) which empowers each node to have self- contained accumulation of energy achieving heightened adaption with energy consumption kept at a minimum. The gross functioning of the proposed is examined on the bases of delay and packet loss to prove the quality of service acquired.
IMPROVED SOFTWARE-DEFINED NETWORK ROUTING FOR TELECOMMUNICATION NETWORKS
Authors: V Suma
Published: November 2019

The rapid advancements in the telecommunication networks, has led to the day by day progress in the data communication leading to the inclusion of many devices that causes complexities in managing and the maintaining of the networks. The outgrowing number of new network devices makes the traditional telecommunication networks incompatible to their flexible operation and the management. So the trending software defined networking can be opted for the provision of more convenient service providing a seamless communication, but the SDN’s lags in the self-adaptability and the efficient usage of the resources as it uses the concept of the traditional networks so the paper proposes an modified method of software defined networking based on the deep learning to enhance the performance, of the telecommunication networks. Further the evaluation of the telecommunication network routing with the improvised SDN, on the packet loss rate and the average delay shows that the proposed method is compatible for the seamless information provision of the nowadays telecommunication networks.

“Go Green“ Pelatihan Untuk Mendorong Perilaku Konservasi dan Pro Lingkungan bagi Santri Al Ghazali, Kota Bogor
Authors: Firmiana Masni Erika , Imawati Rochimah , Prasetya Meithya Rose
Published: November 2019

Pondok Pesantren Al Ghazali menerapkan beberapa kegiatan kebersihan harian. Yang pertama kegiatan para santri mengumpulkan sampah setiap hari, dan langsung membakarnya. Pembakaran tersebut menghasilkan gas CO2yang menimbulkan polusi udara.  Yang kedua, sampah harian rumah tangga dikumpulkan di belakang pondok untuk dibawa oleh tukang sampah ke tempat pembuangan akhir (TPA). Untuk kegiatan kedua, pondok pesantren mengeluarkan biaya hingga Rp. 700.000/bulan, padahal pondok sendiri belum termasuk lembaga yang mapan secara ekonomi. Untuk awal, tim merancang sebuah program intervensi sosial untuk mendorong perilaku pro lingkungan dan konservasi alam bagi para santri, sebagai generasi yang akan menjadi generasi pelopor untuk lingkungan yang lebih baik di masa mendatang. Program intervensi menggunakan model psikologi konservasi (Clayton & Brook, 2005), knowledge yang berhubungan dengan perilaku konservasi, (Pratkanis & Turner, 1994; Ronis & Kaiser, 1989; Schahn & Holzer, 1990, dalam Frick, J; Kaiser FG; Wilson, Mark; 2004), serta educational intervention. Setelah melalui seluruh proses, para santri memahami, dan mau melaksanakan praktik untuk perilaku pro lingkungan yang diharapkan selama beberapa waktu, namun kemudian terkendala oleh tugas-tugas lain dari guru. Integrasi dan kerjasama dari semua pihak (tim, sekolah, guru), perlu mendapat perhatian penting. Intervensi selanjutnya akan diarahkan kepada pihak guru, dan sekolah.

 

Islamic Boarding School (Pondok Pesantren; here in after referred to as ‘Pontren’) Al Ghazali implements several daily cleaning activities; the first of which is the students collect daily garbage and conduct immediate burning. The burning results in CO2 that might trigger air pollution. The second, the daily domestic garbage is collected behind the school for pickups by the garbage collector to the landfill area. For the second activity, the school spends a cost of up to USD. 700,000/ month despite the fact that the school is not a economically-established institution. Initially, the Team designs a social intervention program to encourage environmental-friendly and nature conservation-based behaviour that would become the pioneer for better environment in the future. The intervention program applies consciousness raising, conservation psychology model, knowledge-related conservation behaviour, and educational intervention. After getting through all processes, the students comprehend and are willing to implement the expected pro environmental behaviour, but some hindrance appear; taking the form of teachers assignments. Integration and cooperation from all related parties (Team, school, and teachers) requires important attention. The subsequent intervention will be directed to teachers and school, by using Bandura’s Social Learning Theory.

Authors: Firmiana Masni Erika , Rahmawati Siti , Imawati Rochimah
Published: November 2019

Abstrak - Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memprediksi tingkah laku membeli pemakaman mewah, di tengah situasi makin banyaknya masyarakat yang berada di status sosial ekonomi yang rendah, ditambah sudah keluarnya fatwa haram dari MUI. Prediksi ini diukur menggunakan Teori Planned Behavior dari Acjzen (1975), dengan metode kuantitatif. Alat pengumpul data adalah skala intensi dari Acjzen, dan sampel sebanyak 80 (delapan puluh) orang anggota majlis taklim. Hasilnya menunjukkan bahwa semua faktor yang dijelaskan oleh IV memiliki pengaruh sebesar 67.6% terhadap DV, dan sisanya dipengaruhi oleh faktor lain yang tidak diteliti oleh penelitian ini. Ini berarti bahwa faktor sikap, norma subjektif, dan kontrol terhadap perilaku yang dipersepsikan memiliki pengaruh sebesar 67.6 % terhadap tingkah laku membeli pemakaman mewah. Faktor yang memiliki pengaruh paling signifikan adalah kontrol terhadap tingkah laku yang dipersepsikan. Penelitian selanjutnya sebaiknya menggunakan sampel dengan jumlah yang lebih besar, dan lebih bervariasi (tidak hanya anggota majlis taklim). Selain jumlah sampel yang lebih besar perlu dipertimbangkan untuk melakukan riset kolaborasi dengan bidang ilmu lain, seperti ekonomi. Dengan jumlah sampel yang lebih besar dan cakupan area yang lebih besar, MUI dapat mempertimbangkan hasil riset ini sebagai data pendukung untuk mengeluarkan fatwa terkait fenomena ini.

Abstract - This study aims to predict the behavior of buying a luxurious funeral, amid the situation of the increasing number of people who are in low socioeconomic status, plus the release of fatwa haram from MUI. This prediction is measured using Planned Behavior Theory of Acjzen (1975), with quantitative methods. The data collection tool is the intensity scale of Acjzen, and a sample of 80 (eighty) members of majlis taklim. The results show that all the factors described by IV have an influence of 67.6% on DV, and the remainder are influenced by other factors not investigated by this study.  This means that attitude factors, subjective norms, and control over perceived behavior have an effect of 67.6% on the behavior of luxury funeral purchase. The most significant factor is the control of perceived behavior. Subsequent studies should use samples with larger numbers, and more varied (not just majlis taklim members).  In addition to the larger number of samples it is necessary to consider collaborative research with other disciplines, such as economics. With a larger sample size and greater area coverage, the MUI may consider the results of this research as supporting data for issuing fatwas related to this phenomenon.

Synthesis and Characteristics of Rice Husk Ash Based Magnetic Hydrogel (RHA-MH) for H2 Generation
Authors: Irvan Dahlan  , Muhammad Syafieq Abd Halim
Published: November 2019

Abstract: In this study, magnetic hydrogel was synthesized from rice husk ash (RHA-MH) using two methods, i.e. sol-gel and cross-linking methods. The prepared rice husk ash based magnetic hydrogel (RHA-MH) were used as a catalyst for H2 generation through hydrolysis of sodium borohydride (NaBH4). Factors effecting hydrolysis reaction such as effect of RHA calcination temperature and method used to synthesis the catalyst were investigated. The RHA-MH1200 synthesised via cross-linking and sol-gel methods (using RHA calcined at 1200°C) shows the shortest time taken (5.64 min and 11.18 min, respectively) to produce 40 mL of H2 gas as compared to RHA-MH600 (i.e. 10.47 min and 13.18 min respectively, for both methods using RHA calcined at 600°C). The prepared and spent RHA-MH were also characterized using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM)/Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis. From SEM image, it could be concluded that silica (SiO2) could successfully be utilized as the supporting material for stabilizing magnetic iron oxide (Fe3O4) nanoparticles. The SEM image also showed that the overall structure was relatively porous. Moreover, the SEM images of magnetic hydrogel before and after the hydrolysis of NaBH4 exhibited similar physical structures.

A combinatorial approach to improving the performance of azoarene photoswitches
Authors: Calbo Joaquin , Thawani Aditya R , Gibson Rosina S L , White Andrew J P , Fuchter Matthew J
Published: November 2019

Azoarenes remain privileged photoswitches – molecules that can be interconverted between two states using light – enabling a huge range of light addressable multifunctional systems and materials. Two key innovations to improve the addressability and Z-isomer stability of the azoarenes have been ortho-substitution of the benzene ring(s) or replacement of one of the benzenes for a pyrazole (to give arylazopyrazole switches). Here we study the combination of such high-performance features within a single switch architecture. Through computational analysis and experimental measurements of representative examples, we demonstrate that ortho-benzene substitution of the arylazopyrazoles drastically increases the Z-isomer stability and allows further tuning of their addressability. This includes the discovery of new azopyrazoles with a Z-isomer thermal half-life of ≈46 years. Such results therefore define improved designs for high performance azo switches, which will allow for high precision optically addressable applications using such components.

We present ALMA observations of CO isotopes and 1.3 mm continuum emission toward the N159E-Papillon Nebula in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). The spatial resolution is 0.″25–0.″28 (0.06–0.07 pc), which is a factor of 3 higher than previous ALMA observations in this region. The high resolution allowed us to resolve highly filamentary CO distributions with typical widths of ∼0.1 pc (full width half maximum) and line masses of a few 100 M
⊙ pc−1. The filaments (more than ten in number) show an outstanding hub-filament structure emanating from the nebular center toward the north. We identified for the first time two massive protostellar outflows of ∼104 yr dynamical age along one of the most massive filaments. The observations also revealed several pillar-like CO features around the Nebula. The H ii region and the pillars have a complementary spatial distribution and the column density of the pillars is an order of magnitude higher than that of the pillars in the Eagle nebula (M16) in the Galaxy, suggesting an early stage of pillar formation with an age younger than ∼105 yr. We suggest that a cloud–cloud collision triggered the formation of the filaments and protostar within the last ∼2 Myr. It is possible that the collision is more recent, as part of the kpc-scale H i flows come from the tidal interaction resulting from the close encounter between the LMC and SMC ∼200 Myr ago as suggested for R136 by Fukui et al.
Sunspot Characteristics at the Onset of the Maunder Minimum Based on the Observations of Hevelius

An analysis of the sunspot observations made by Hevelius during 1642–1645 is presented. These records are the only systematic sunspot observations just before the Maunder Minimum (MM). We have studied different phenomena meticulously recorded by Hevelius after translating the original Latin texts. We reevaluate the observations of sunspot groups by Hevelius during this period and obtain an average value 7% greater than that calculated from his observations given in the current group database. Furthermore, the average of the active day fraction obtained in this work from Hevelius’s records previous to the MM is significantly greater than the solar activity level obtained from Hevelius’s sunspot observations made during the MM (70% versus 30%). We also present the butterfly diagram obtained from the sunspot positions recorded by Hevelius for the period 1642–1645. It can be seen that no hemispheric asymmetry exists during this interval, in contrast with the MM. Hevelius noted a ∼3-month period that appeared to lack sunspots in early 1645 that gave the first hint of the impending MM. Recent studies claim that the MM was not a grand minimum period, speculating that astronomers of that time, due to the Aristotelian ideas, did not record all sunspots that they observed, producing thus an underestimation of the solar activity level. However, we show that the good quality of the sunspot records made by Hevelius indicates that his reports of sunspots were true to the observations.
Intensity Gradients Technique: Synergy with Velocity Gradients and Polarization Studies
Authors: Hu Yue , Yuen Ka Ho , Lazarian A.
Published: November 2019

Magnetic fields are ubiquitous in the interstellar medium but notoriously difficult to study through observation. Making use of the advances in our understanding of MHD turbulence and turbulent reconnection, the velocity gradients technique (VGT) was suggested and successfully applied to study magnetic fields utilizing spectroscopic data. Applying the tools developed for the VGT to intensity statistics, we introduce the intensity gradients technique (IGT) as a complementary tool that can be used synergistically with the VGT. In this paper, we apply the IGT to a diffuse H i region selected from the GALFA-H i survey and compare the intensity gradient (IG) maps with those obtained using velocity gradients, as well as Planck polarization measurements. We demonstrate the possibility of using the IGT and VGT for both studying the magnetic field and identifying shocks in the diffuse interstellar medium. We also explore the ability of the IGT in locating self-gravitating regions and calculating Alfvénic Mach numbers, both alone and in combination with the VGT and polarimetry. We compare the IGT with the histogram of relative orientation, which utilizes IGs to characterize the relative orientation of column density structures and local magnetic fields.

Published: November 2019

The Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) is providing precise time-series photometry for most star clusters in the solar neighborhood. Using the TESS images, we have begun a Cluster Difference Imaging Photometric Survey, in which we are focusing both on stars that are candidate cluster members and on stars that show indications of youth. Our aims are to discover giant transiting planets with known ages, and to provide light curves suitable for studies in stellar astrophysics. For this work, we made 159,343  light curves of candidate young stars, across 596  distinct clusters. Each light curve represents between 20 and 25 days of observations of a star brighter than G

Rp
 = 16, with 30-minute sampling. We describe the image-subtraction and time-series analysis techniques we used to create the light curves, which have noise properties that agree with theoretical expectations. We also comment on the possible utility of the light-curve sample for studies of stellar rotation evolution and binary eccentricity damping. The light curves, which cover about one-sixth of the galactic plane, are available at archive.stsci.edu/hlsp/cdips.

Taxonomic revision of Australian Copelatus Erichson, 1832 (Coleoptera, Dytiscidae, Copelatinae)
Authors: Hendrich Lars , Shaverdo Helena , Hájek Jiří , Balke Michael
Published: November 2019

The genus Copelatus in Australia is revised and nine species are recognised. One new species, Copelatus martinbaehrisp. nov., is described from Papua New Guinea (Central Province) and Cape York Peninsula (Iron Range NP and Mt Tozer). Copelatus divisus Watts, 1978, syn. nov., is considered a junior synonym of C. portior Guignot, 1956, described from New Guinea. Species delimitation is based on the morphological characters and Cox1 data. All species are (re)described, and their important species characters (median lobes, parameres, habitus and colour patterns) are illustrated. A key to all nine species is provided. The known distribution and habitat preferences of each species are outlined briefly. In Australia, all nine species are distributed in the northern half of the continent. Four species are also reported from New Guinea: in addition to C. martinbaehrisp. nov., we record C. clarki Sharp, 1882 for the first time from southern New Guinea, and consider literature records of C. irregularis W.J. Macleay, 1871 and C. marginatus Sharp, 1882 from New Guinea as doubtful. Copelatus portior is widely distributed in Australasia, while C. tenebrosus is widely distributed in the Indomalayan and Australasian realms. All Australian Copelatus are confirmed to be lentic, found in a large variety of stagnant water, mainly in lowland areas up to 250 m.

Este trabajo analiza la nueva definición de la descripción archivística, entendida como proceso esencial dentro de la gestión documental, sobrepasando su tradicional consideración como tarea importante dentro de los archivos: junto al producto de la descripción se tiene que tener muy en cuenta la calidad de las propias actividades descriptivas. Así, se abordan, inicialmente, el lugar que ocupa la descripción archivística dentro de los ítems de la gestión documental y el procedimiento descriptivo que debe desarrollarse dentro de este marco; en este sentido, a continuación, se estudia la vía necesaria para alcanzar la calidad y la mejora continua en la descripción archivística, que no es otra que la gestión por procesos.
Leveraging social capital of the church for development: A case study of a farming community in Wellington
Authors: Beukes Jacques W.
Published: November 2019

This article explores how a farming community in Wellington (Bovlei) moved from dependence towards an empowered community through non-profit organisations’ (NPOs) transformative community development initiatives, undertaken together with the church’s social capital. This example serves as the backdrop to explore critical viewpoints by various scholars who are critical about how the church engages in an unequal and unjust society. The critical questions that remain are the following; who is the church?, what is the church’s role as a change agent? and how should churches leverage social capital for development? Although various definitions have been given in conceptualising the church and its role in society, through this article, the author engages with the social capital theory in understanding how the transformation came about in this community by describing the churches’ involvement through a case study.
O Brasil e a cooperação sul-americana em saúde: dos regimes temáticos às possibilidades de efetivação estruturante
Authors: Pozzatti Junior Ademar , Witzel Farias Luiza
Published: November 2019

A cooperação internacional que se propõe estruturante é interpretada sob duas dimensões, ambas permeadas por um direito internacional contemporâneo que busca se tornar efetivo no âmbito doméstico. Na primeira dimensão esta abordagem da cooperação toma a forma de atos internacionais, e na segunda, de políticas públicas domésticas. Este artigo foca na primeira dimensão da cooperação estruturante em saúde, teorizada por pesquisadores ligados à Fundação Oswaldo Cruz, no Brasil. O trabalho se propõe ao estudo empírico dos atos internacionais firmados pelo Estado brasileiro com os demais Estados da América do Sul, em matéria de saúde e em vigor, para averiguar a existência e o estado da arte de regimes temáticos dedicados à efetivação do direito humano à saúde, bem como suas possibilidades de efetivação estruturante. Além disso, o trabalho localiza a abordagem brasileira da saúde internacional nas agendas internacionais que se verificam historicamente no setor saúde. Para estes fins são utilizados os resultados quantificados de um extenso levantamento documental, capazes de comprovar a existência dos regimes temáticos, e que estes são permeados por possibilidades de efetivação estruturante, situando a abordagem brasileira em uma agenda mista e inovadora.
O exercício da jurisdição interamericana de direitos humanos: legitimidade, problemas e possíveis soluções
Authors: Ferreira Felipe Grizotto , Cabral Guilherme Perez , Laurentiis Lucas Catib de
Published: November 2019

O trabalho enfrenta a questão da legitimidade e, consequentemente, efetividade das decisões da Corte Interamericana de Direitos Humanos. Corriqueiramente a literatura especializada investiga o problema sob a ótica interna. Contudo, esta pesquisa direciona a investigação para possíveis causas internacionais da questão. Partindo de um estudo comparado de caso, um enfrentado no continente europeu e o outro no americano, e através de um método descritivo e normativo, o trabalho identifica pontos problemáticos na jurisprudência da Corte interamericana ao estabelecer o sentido e extensão das normas de direitos humanos. O objetivo é trazer informações e argumentos que possibilitem uma reflexão crítica da atuação da Corte e seu impacto na efetivação dos direitos humanos. São esboçadas duas soluções aos problemas. Uma delas é encontrada na jurisprudência do Tribunal Europeu dos Direitos do Homem e a doutrina da margem de apreciação. A outra é fruto da doutrina e de dois casos paradigmáticos da própria Corte interamericana.
Agrotóxicos e direito humanos no contexto global: o Brasil em risco de retrocesso?
Authors: Mosmann Marcelo Pretto , Albuquerque Letícia , Barbieri Isabele Bruna
Published: November 2019

O objetivo deste artigo é analisar a relação entre Direitos Humanos e meio ambiente a partir da problemática da regulação e uso de agrotóxicos, em especial no Brasil, usando como referência o relatório elaborado pelo relator especial do direito à alimentação junto ao Conselho de Direitos Humanos da Organização das Nações Unidas, publicado em 2017. Primeiro será realizada uma contextualização da atuação do Brasil nas Conferências Mundiais de Meio Ambiente junto ao sistema das Nações Unidas e evidenciada a relação com a segurança química. A partir dessa primeira análise é possível afirmar que há uma adequação das políticas e legislação brasileiras para assegurar uma maior proteção ambiental em matéria de regulação e uso de agrotóxicos. Num segundo momento é apresentada a relação cada vez mais evidente entre meio ambiente e direitos humanos no contexto do sistema das Nações Unidas, a partir da atuação do Conselho de Direitos Humanos com relação aos agrotóxicos e os riscos de contaminação. Por fim, apresenta-se o atual contexto brasileiro que permite concluir que há um risco de retrocesso ambiental, considerando a liberalização do uso de substâncias proibidas ou mesmo banidas em outros países, justamente pelo risco que representam à saúde humana e ao meio ambiente. Neste contexto, os instrumentos internacionais de proteção à saúde e ao meio ambiente poderiam ser utilizados para pressionar contra as medidas de flexibilização adotada pelo governo brasileiro. A metodologia utilizada será a dedutiva com bane na consulta à bibliografia especializada e legislações e análise documental.
Resenha da obra "Regime Internacional de Enfrentamento ao Tráfico de Pessoas: Avanços e desafios para a proteção dos direitos humanos" de Waldimeiry Correa da Silva.

Published: November 2019

Alicerçada na sua trajetória acadêmica e de militância na área de Tráfico de Pessoas e Mobilidade Humana, no âmbito transnacional, a autora professora doutora Waldimeiry Corrêa da Silva, no seu livro publicado em 2018, intitulado “Regime Internacional de Enfrentamento ao Tráfico de Pessoas: Avanços e desafios para a proteção dos direitos humanos”, em 376 páginas, sistematiza a evolução histórica, conceitual, doutrinária, jurisprudencial e política que conformam a epistemologia sobre o Enfrentamento ao Tráfico de Pessoas (ETP). Porém, denota certa complexidade no seu enfrentamento, uma vez que esta questão deve incorporar as perspectivas de política criminal, de gênero, de direitos humanos, de moral, migratória, de ordem pública, de garantia de trabalho digno e respeito aos direitos fundamentais. Evidencia-se, portanto, que a autora trata o tráfico de pessoas como um tema multifacetado. [...]

Objective: Healthcare institutions have taken efforts to communicate to their healthcare workers (HCWs) about the concepts and importance of clinical quality and patient safety (CQPS). However, implementing interventions to promote pro CQPS behaviour without fully evaluating the factors that direct such behaviour may be costly and counter-productive. This study aimed to investigate HCWs’ perception of their competence and attitudes towards CQPS. It also looked into their perceived behaviour pattern to unsafe practices and usefulness of the different avenues to improve CQPS behavior in the hospital.Methods: A survey was conducted among doctors, nurses and allied health workers over two months in 2017. Paper surveys were distributed during departmental staff meetings. Participation was strictly voluntary, and responses were de-identified and kept confidential. Responses were measured using a five-point Likert scale. Data was analyzed using descriptive statistics.Results: The participation rate was 90.2% (541/600). Of the respondents, 88.0% and 85.6% agreed that CQPS was important and relevant to their work respectively. However, when asked if they execute a series of pro-CQPS behaviour, results showed a knowledge-behaviour disconnect. Only 36.2% will intervene when they see unsafe practice and 27.2% see the importance of reporting near miss events.Conclusions: While respondents are generally aware of the importance and relevance of CQPS, this is not reflected in their behaviour as they are unmotivated and show disinterest in practising pro-CQPS behaviour. Further studies are needed to address the factors associated with this knowledge-behaviour disconnect.

Background and objective: Heart transplant is a life-saving treatment and currently is the definitive gold-standard in the treatment of refractory heart failure. Surgical site infection is a serious complication of heart transplantation. A nursing theory predicting consequences related to the management of risk factors for surgical site infection in patients undergoing heart transplantation can be useful to nursing practice. The objective of this study was to develop a situation-specific theory of surgical site infection-related stimuli in patients undergoing heart transplantation.Methods: It was adopted an integrative strategy to develop the theory. Multiple sources of knowledge were accessed. The Roy Adaptation Model was adopted as the foundation for the development of this situation-specific theory in a nursing perspective. A literature review on risk factors for surgical site infection in patients undergoing heart transplantation was conducted. By configuring those sources with practice expertise in a collaborative effort, risk factors for surgical site infection in patients undergoing heart transplantation were classified as contextual or residual stimuli, focal stimulus was defined, and seven theory propositions were developed.Results: Heart transplant surgery was considered as focal stimulus. The contextual stimuli were classified as preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative contextual stimuli. The residual stimuli were classified as preoperative and intraoperative residual stimuli. No postoperative residual stimulus was identified. Ten theory propositions were created.Conclusions: The emerging theory can help nurses to prevent surgical site infections in patients undergoing heart transplantation. Further developments must be made in order to consider nurse-patient interactions during the prevention of surgical site infections.
