Published: January 2023

Мета. Дослідження стандартизації медичної допомоги у вітчизняній системі охорони здоров’я з метою використання її методологічних засад під час опрацювання військово-медичних стандартів.
Матеріали та методи. Використано законодавчі та нормативно-правові акти з питань охорони здоров’я в Україні та стандартизації медичної допомоги, наукові статті та інші видання, присвячені питанням стандартизації медичної допомоги в системі охорони здоров’я. Об’єкт дослідження – система охорони здоров’я України. Предмет дослідження – стандартизація медичної допомоги. Методи дослідження: бібліографічний, аналітичний, системного підходу, узагальнення, прогностичний.
Результати. Досліджено процеси стандартизації медичної допомоги у вітчизняній системі охорони здоров’я, вивчено та проаналізовано вимоги законодавчих і нормативно-правових актів, що визначають порядок стандартизації та систему медичних стандартів. Проаналізовано стан опрацювання та впровадження стандартів медичної допомоги (медичних стандартів) в системі охорони здоров’я України. Встановлено, що стандартизація в системі охорони здоров’я служить важливим інструментом забезпечення якості медичної допомоги, а основними шляхами впровадження стандартів медичної допомоги (медичних стандартів) в систему охорони здоров’я України є імплементація сучасних європейських підходів до стандартизації медичної допомоги та розроблення вітчизняних медичних стандартів (уніфікованих клінічних протоколів) на засадах доказової медицини.
Висновки. В Україні сформована законодавча і нормативна база щодо порядку розроблення та впровадження стандартів медичної допомоги (медичних стандартів), опрацьовані та застосовуються стандарти медичної допомоги (медичні стандарти), ефективність яких відповідає міжнародним практикам. Функціонування Медичних сил Збройних Сил України та медичних служб інших складових сил оборони в єдиному законодавчому та нормативно-правовому полі держави з питань охорони здоров’я передбачає обов’язковість застосування в практику надання медичної допомоги військовослужбовцям прийнятих у державі стандартів медичної допомоги (медичних стандартів). Зважаючи на особливості надання медичної допомоги в умовах бойових дій, які кардинально відрізняються від умов мирного часу, є необхідність опрацювання військово-медичних стандартів для надання медичної допомоги військовослужбовцям з бойовою хірургічною і терапевтичною патологією на визначених рівнях медичного забезпечення.
Intravenous ketamine in gynaecological surgeries reduces pain score and opioid consumption
Authors: Huda Anwar ul , Minhas Raheel , Yasir Mohammad 
Published: January 2023

Objective: To assess the effect of intravenous ketamine on postoperative pain control, opioid consumption, and the incidence of postoperative adverse events in gynaecological surgeries.
Method: The systematic review and meta-analysis was conducted in July 2020 and the search was repeated in July 2021 to ensure accuracy. The review was registered with the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO) in July 2020. The search, done on online databases Medline and Science Direct, comprised studies on patients who underwent general anaesthesia for gynaecological surgeries and received intravenous ketamine intraoperatively, and the findings included opioid consumption, postoperative pain control, and associated side-effects.
Results: Of the 79 randomised controlled trials found, 9(11.4%) were subjected to meta-analysis. The use of intravenous ketamine reduced pain score at 2h (p=0.003) and 24h (p=0.002) postoperatively in gynaecological surgeries. In laparoscopic gynaecological surgeries, lower pain scores were reported at 1h (p=0.01) and 2h (p=0.002) hours postoperatively. Lower pain scores were reported at 24h postoperatively in open gynaecological surgeries (p=0.002). Intravenous ketamine increased the time to first-request analgesia postoperatively (p=0.03), and reduced postoperative 24h opioid consumption (p=0.002).
Conclusion: The use of intravenous ketamine significantly reduced postoperative pain at 2h and 24h after gynaecological surgeries and at 1h and 2h after laparoscopic gynaecological surgeries.
Key Words: Ketamine, Pain score, Gynaecological surgery, Opioid consumption.
Before There was a Bible
Authors: McDonald Lee Martin 
Published: January 2023

How did authority function before the bible as we know it emerged? Lee Martin McDonald examines the authorities that existed from the Church’s beginning: the appeal to the texts containing the words of Jesus, and that would become the New Testament, the not yet finalized Hebrew Scriptures (referred to mostly in Greek) and the apostolic leadership of the churches.
McDonald traces several sacred core traditions that broadly identified the essence of Christianity before there was a bible summarized in early creeds, hymns and spiritual songs, baptismal and Eucharistic affirmations, and in lectionaries and catalogues from the fourth century and following. McDonald shoes how those traditions were included in the early Christian writings later recognized as the New Testament. He also shows how Christians were never fully agreed on the scope of their Old Testament canon (Hebrew scriptures) and that it took centuries before there was universal acceptance of all of the books now included in the Christian bible. Further, McDonald shows that whilst writings such as the canonical gospels were read as authoritative texts likely from their beginning, they were not yet called or cited as scripture. What was cited in an authoritative manner were the words of Jesus in those texts, alongside the multiple affirmations and creeds that were circulated in the early Church and formed its key authorities and core sacred traditions.
Female Heroes in Young Adult Fantasy Fiction
Authors: Phillips Leah 
Published: January 2023

Hero stories are deeply rooted in Western Culture. From religion and myth to blockbuster films and YA literature, the story is everywhere, and it shapes how we, the ones who hear and see it, understand the world around us. For too long, hero stories, which could also be called dominant discourse, have undertaken this social and cultural work through the archetypal hero: a white, often 'god'-touched, young man who exists in opposition and superiority to that which he is not, including adolescent girls. This paradigm works by imposing radical alterity on that which is not-hero to ensure his heroicness. Crucially, while this exclusion affects all girls, it does not do so evenly. If the girl is also Black or Brown, disabled, or otherwise not performing expected and accepted versions of adolescent girlhood, marginalisation increases.
Female Heroes explores how the heroes in a subgenre of YA fantasy, one it names mythopoeic YA, intervene in this narrative of superiority by breaking the boundaries and blurring the borders of what it means to be hero, girl, and even human. These heroes — such as Tamora Pierce's Alanna the Lioness, Marissa Meyer's Cinder, and the heterogeneous 'crew' at the heart of Leigh Bardugo's Six of Crows duology — disrupt heroic norms and standards by occupying the spaces between oppositions. This occupation frustrates violent hierarchy, radical alterity and erasure, particularly of bodily difference, while also disrupting isolating individuality. In so doing, female heroes offer an alternative and inclusive model of being-hero, one directly impacting adolescent girlhood and beyond.
Theatre Across Borders
Authors: Majumdar Abhishek 
Published: January 2023

Is there a fundamental connection between New York's Elevator Repair Service's 9-hour production of The Great Gatsby and a Kathakali performance?
How can we come to appreciate the slowness of Kabuki theatre as much as the pace of the Whatsapp theatre of post-Arab Spring Turkey?
Can we go beyond our own culture's contemporary definition of a 'good play' and think about the theatre in a deep and pluralistic manner?
Drawing on his extensive experience working with theatre artists, students and thinkers across the globe - up to and including an hour-long audience with the Dalai Lama - playwright Abhishek Majumdar considers why we make theatre and how we see it in different parts of the world.
His own work has taken him from theatre in Japan to dance companies in the Phillippines, writers in Lebanon and Palestine, theatre groups in Burkina Faso, war-torn areas like Kashmir and North Eastern India, and to China and Tibet, Argentina and Mexico.
Via a far-reaching and provocative collection of essays that is informed by this wealth of experience, Majumdar explores:
- how different cultures conceive theatre and how the norm of one place is the experiment of another;
- the ways in which theatre across the world mirrors its socio political and philosophical climate;
- how, for thousands of years, theatre has been a tool to both disrupt and to heal;
- and how, even within the many differences, there are universals from which we can all learn and how theatre does cross borders
Of interest to theatre makers everywhere - be they writers, actors, directors or designers - this book offers an oversight, as well as interrogation, into the place of theatre in the world today
Why Do Actors Train?
Authors: Krumholz Brad 
Published: January 2023

How are we to understand the actor’s work as a fully embodied process?
'Embodied cognition' is a branch of contemporary philosophy which attempts to frame human understanding as a fully embodied interaction with the environment. Engaging with ideas of contemporary significance from neuroscience, psychology, linguistics, and philosophy, Why Do Actors Train? challenges outmoded mind/body dualistic notions that permeate common conceptions of how actors work. Theories of embodiment are drawn up to shed important light on the ways and reasons actors do what they do.
Through detailed, step-by-step analyses of specific actor-training exercises, the author examines the tools that actors use to perform roles. This book provides theatre practitioners with a new lens to re-examine their craft, offering a framework to understand the art form as one that is fundamentally grounded in embodied experience.
The Woman’s Voice
Authors: Rodenburg Patsy 
Published: January 2023

Why are women still often not properly listened to?
Why are they sometimes perceived to be less interesting than they are?
Why do women tend to rush when they speak?
Why do some women feel the pressure to sound like little girls?
From one of the world’s leading experts on voice work comes this book, which is a call to arms for women to reclaim their voices.
Using elements of experience and practice from her prolific career, Patsy Rodenburg examines these questions, and many more, to decipher what lies at the heart of female empowerment.

From the age of four, Rodenburg knew that she found communication difficult. Her struggle with her own voice set her on the journey that led her to discover her vocation. She has spent her life re-finding and re-empowering voices, particularly the lost voices of women. Watching her highly intelligent working-class mother and grandmother ignored and often silenced gave her the insight to investigate why that was and how to help women overcome this centuries-old issue.
With warmth and humour, Rodenburg interrogates Shakespeare's texts and his presentation of female characters; develops the notion of rhetoric in relation to the female voice; and applies concepts explored in her previous books, including The Three Circles of Energy.
And, perhaps most crucially, through arguing that power and voice are directly linked to breath, Rodenburg makes the case that Western society's oppression of women has diminished their natural ability to breathe.
Exploring the female voice through practical exercises and stories from the front line, as well as profoundly personal and formative experiences from her own life, Rodenburg defines the art of accessing the voice within and reclaiming the woman's right to speak.

American Dramatists in the 21st Century
Authors: Bigsby Christopher 
Published: January 2023

In American Dramatists in the 21st Century: Opening Doors, Christopher Bigsby examines the careers of seven award-winning playwrights: David Adjmi, Julia Cho, Jackie Sibblies Drury, Will Eno, Martyna Majok, Dominique Morisseau and Anna Ziegler. In addition to covering all their plays, including several as yet unpublished, he notes their critical reception while drawing on their own commentary on their approach to writing and the business of developing a career.
The writers studied come from a diverse range of racial, religious and immigrant backgrounds. Five of the seven are women. Together, they open doors on a changing theatre and a changing America, as ever concerned with identity, both personal and national.
This is the third in a series of books which, together, have explored the work of twenty-four American playwrights who have emerged in the current century.

The European Nobility in The Eighteenth Century
Authors: Lukowski Jerzy 
Published: January 2023

The position of the nobility depended on a stable world which accepted their authority: but, in the eighteenth century, that world was becoming increasingly fractured as a result of social and economic developments and new ideas. Since nobles were, in economic terms, an extremely disparate group, ranging from the near destitute to the unimaginably wealthy, how could this ruling class preserve a coherent identity? Was wealth more important than birth or education? How should wealth be retained or accumulated? And what role did women play in shoring up noble pre-eminence?
In this wide-ranging study, Jerzy Lukowski addresses these issues, and shows the pressures and tensions - both from governments and from the lower orders - which challenged traditional ruling groups in Europe during the century before the French Revolution. Lukowski explains the basic mechanisms of noble existence and examines how the European aristocracy sought to maintain a sense of solidarity in the midst of widespread change.
Gender and Community Care
Authors: Orme Joan 
Published: January 2023

Are there differences in the way that men and women care? Are the care needs of women and men perceived as being different? What do we mean by community? Is being cared for always a positive experience? How can social workers and social care workers work positively with individual differences?
Much has been written about both the formal and informal provision of community care, and women's role within this. However, less attention has been paid to the users of community care services. Usually described in terms of being old, disabled, or experiencing mental health problems, service users are assumed to fit into homogeneous groups, their race and gender made invisible by the needs or problems they present.
This book takes the experiences of users of community care services as its starting point. Drawing on feminist theory it documents the gender assumptions behind social work practice and community care policies, and reveals how these impact on women and men as both providers and recipients of community care. In doing so it provides an outline of the developments in practice and policy, and illustrates how particular constructions of gender have influenced both. This important text challenges assumptions that caring is always a positive experience for women and men.
To conclude, a comprehensive overview of the literature about user groups is provided. This informs the author's argument that practitioners in social work and social care have to be attentive in their interventions to the way that identities are constructed and experienced, in order to ensure that services reflect both caring and justice.

Appropriating Antiquity for Modern Chinese Painting
Authors: Yang Chia-Ling 
Published: January 2023

The pursuit of antiquity was important for scholarly artists in constructing their knowledge of history and cultural identity in late imperial China. By examining versatile trends within paintings in modern China, this book questions the extent to which historical relics have been used to represent the ethnic identity of modern Chinese art. In doing so, this book asks: did the antiquarian movements ultimately serve as a deliberate tool for re-writing Chinese art history in modern China?
In searching for the public meaning of inventive private collecting activity, Appropriating Antiquity in Modern Chinese Painting draws on various modes of artistic creation to address how the use of antiquities in early 20th-century Chinese art both produced and reinforced the imaginative links between ancient civilization and modern lives in the late Qing dynasty. Further exploring how these social and cultural transformations were related to the artistic exchanges happening at the time between China, Japan and the West, the book successfully analyses how modernity was translated and appropriated at the turn of the 20th century, throughout Asia and further afield.
David Bowie and the Moving Image
Authors: Reed Katherine 
Published: January 2023

The central image of David Bowie’s “Life on Mars?” could have been ripped from his own experience: a child (with their “mousy hair”) sits “hooked to the silver screen,” reliving fantastical scenes played out on film over and over again. Throughout his life, Bowie was similarly transfixed by the power of film and might be best known among younger generations for his turn on the silver screen as Jareth, the goblin king of Jim Henson’s Labyrinth. From his first film role in The Image to his final music video before his death, “Lazarus,” Bowie’s musical output has long been intrinsically linked to images.
Despite this relationship to film, Bowie’s audio-visual work remains relatively unexplored. More narrowly focused studies address the artist’s music videos or film roles, but none provide a comprehensive view of the two-way street that was Bowie’s work with film, theorizing the way he engaged with the medium throughout his 50-year career. David Bowie and the Moving Image is just such a comprehensive study. Analyzing Bowie’s music videos, planned film projects, acting roles, and musical works included in films, this monograph provides an intervention in Bowie scholarship. This study of Bowie’s multimedia projects informs our understanding of all areas of his work, from music to fashion to visual art. It enters the debate about Bowie’s artistic legacy and fills an important gap by addressing Bowie as musician, actor, and auteur.
