This PowerPoint is a comprehensive overview of Martha Rogers's abstract conceptual model of the Science of Unitary Human Beings, with a simplified description of her model, including a case scenario illustrating key conceptual principles.
The history of the Nursing Theory of Interpersonal Relations by Hildegard Peplau was first introduced in 1952. She used theory from multiple psychology basics most notably Sullivanian threory. She used and studied Process Recordings of nurse interactions with patients. This theory was the first to be introduced since Nightingale 100 years before.
Newman’s theory of health as expanding consciousnessحسين منصور
The theory of health as expanding consciousness stimulated by concern for those for whom health as the absence of disease or disability is not possible, (Newman, 2010).
The theory has progressed to include the health of all persons regardless of the presence or absence of disease, (Newman, 2010).
The theory asserts that every person in every situation, no matter how disordered and hopeless it may seem, is part of the universal process of expanding consciousness, (Newman, 2010).

Brief background of Martha E.Rogers
Martha Elizabeth Rogers (May 12, 1914 – March 13, 1994) was an American nurse, she was born in Dallas, Texas the oldest of four children
Martha E. Rogers, one of nursing’s foremost scientists
she completed her BS in public health nursing at George Peabody College 1937.
She earning both a master’s of public health and a doctor of science degree from Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland.
After graduation from Johns Hopkins, Rogers was appointed head of the Division of Nursing at New York University
Socio Political context during the time the theory was formulated
Martha Rogers' development of the Science of Unitary Human Beings has become an influential nursing theory in the United States.
When first introduced it was considered radical, and difficult to understand, also it considered profound and was too ambitious but now is simply thought to be ahead of its time.
This conceptual framework has greatly influenced all facets of nursing by offering an alternative to traditional approaches of nursing.
THEORY DESCRIPTION
(1.1.1) Theory assumptions
The assumptions of Rogers’ Theory of Unitary Human Beings are as follows:
(1) Man is a unified whole possessing his own integrity and manifesting characteristics that are more than and different from the sum of his parts.
(2) Man and environment are continuously exchanging matter and energy with one another.
(3) The life process evolves irreversibly and unidirectionally along the space-time continuum.
(4) Pattern and organization identify the man and reflect his innovative wholeness. And lastly,
(5) Man is characterized by the capacity for abstraction and imagery, language and thought sensation and emotion.
(1.1) Structural Components
(1.1) Structural Component (continued)
(1.1.2) Concepts
The following are the major concepts and metaparadigm of Martha Rogers’ nursing theory:
A- Human-unitary human beings
A person is defined as an indivisible, pan-dimensional energy field identified by a pattern, and manifesting characteristics specific to the whole, and that can’t be predicted from knowledge of the parts. A person is also a unified whole, having its own distinct characteristics that can’t be viewed by looking at, describing, or summarizing the parts.
(1.1) Structural Component (continued)
(1.1.2) Concepts
B-Health
Rogers defines health as an expression of the life process.
It is the characteristics and behavior coming from the mutual, simultaneous interaction of the human and environmental fields, and health and illness are part of the same continuum.
The multiple events occurring during the life process show the extent to which a person is achieving his or her maximum health potential.
The events vary in their expressions from greatest health to those conditions that are incompatible with the maintaining life process.
(1.1) Structural Component (continued)
(1.1.2) Concepts
C-Nursing
It is the study of unitary, irreducible, in.
Holistic nurses believe that healing leads to restoring, discovering and/or recognizing one’s inherent wholeness even within the face of sickness, and death. Holistic ideas and values support nursing practice. They embody, however aren't restricted to: care, presence, intuition, comfort, deliberation, love, and compassion in addition as religious recovery and quality of life. These ideas and values want exploration so as to know, refine and clarify however they support the healing method. Holistic Nursing analysis develops data and assists in providing the follow primarily based proof that's required to rework health care into holistic care. This needs dedication to developing and fostering resources that assist in making, deciphering and conducting holistic analysis. We have a tendency to believe that each one holistic nurse will participate in analysis by move queries, consistently grouping data to answer those queries, and implementing the results.
It would be very hard to find a nurse who saw only the physical aspect of care as that which defines nursing. We all know that when a person is hurting emotionally, all sorts of physical ailments crop up. On the other hand, physical conditions can affect the mind and spirit. The nursing profession has traditionally viewed the person as holistic, though the term itself was only introduced into the nursing literature in the 1980s by Rogers, Parse, Newman and others. Today we speak of a person as a Bio Psycho Social unit.
Restoring wholeness is a legitimate goal of nursing, and so the term 'holistic' from the Greek ‘ Holos ' meaning whole or complete, is a very appropriate way to describe what we aim to do. Yet we may not always stop to consider the full implications of that concept. Holism has been defined as "concerned with the interrelationship of body, mind and spirit in an ever changing environment". See Slide.1 The American Holistic Nurses Association define wellness (health) as “That state of harmony between body, mind and spirit". The essence of holistic care is to help a person attain or maintain wholeness in all dimensions of their being. Consequently nurses need to be prepared to provide care in each of these areas. In this Presentation I wish to consider the spiritual dimension - the nature of Spirituality (Sanctity), the needs of the spirit, and the role of the nurse in caring for the Spirit (Life force).

Health Education on prevention of hypertensionRadhika kulvi
Hypertension is a chronic condition of concern due to its role in the causation of coronary heart diseases. Hypertension is a worldwide epidemic and important risk factor for coronary artery disease, stroke and renal diseases. Blood pressure is the force exerted by the blood against the walls of the blood vessels and is sufficient to maintain tissue perfusion during activity and rest. Hypertension is sustained elevation of BP. In adults, HTN exists when systolic blood pressure is equal to or greater than 140mmHg or diastolic BP is equal to or greater than 90mmHg. The

Medical Technology Tackles New Health Care Demand - Research Report - March 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) predicts that with, against, despite, and even without the global pandemic, the medical technology (MedTech) industry shows signs of continuous healthy growth, driven by smaller, faster, and cheaper devices, growing demand for home-based applications, technological innovation, strategic acquisitions, investments, and SPAC listings. MCG predicts that this should reflects itself in annual growth of over 6%, well beyond 2028.
According to Chris Mouchabhani, Managing Partner at M Capital Group, “Despite all economic scenarios that one may consider, beyond overall economic shocks, medical technology should remain one of the most promising and robust sectors over the short to medium term and well beyond 2028.”
There is a movement towards home-based care for the elderly, next generation scanning and MRI devices, wearable technology, artificial intelligence incorporation, and online connectivity. Experts also see a focus on predictive, preventive, personalized, participatory, and precision medicine, with rising levels of integration of home care and technological innovation.
The average cost of treatment has been rising across the board, creating additional financial burdens to governments, healthcare providers and insurance companies. According to MCG, cost-per-inpatient-stay in the United States alone rose on average annually by over 13% between 2014 to 2021, leading MedTech to focus research efforts on optimized medical equipment at lower price points, whilst emphasizing portability and ease of use. Namely, 46% of the 1,008 medical technology companies in the 2021 MedTech Innovator (“MTI”) database are focusing on prevention, wellness, detection, or diagnosis, signaling a clear push for preventive care to also tackle costs.
In addition, there has also been a lasting impact on consumer and medical demand for home care, supported by the pandemic. Lockdowns, closure of care facilities, and healthcare systems subjected to capacity pressure, accelerated demand away from traditional inpatient care. Now, outpatient care solutions are driving industry production, with nearly 70% of recent diagnostics start-up companies producing products in areas such as ambulatory clinics, at-home care, and self-administered diagnostics.

Martha Rogers’s Science of Unitary Human Beings...simplified...with a case scenario included
1. Martha Rogers’s Science of
Unitary Human Beings
SIMPLIFIED….WITH A CASE SCENARIO INCLUDED
By Karen V. Duhamel, MSN, MS, RN
1
2. Who was Martha Rogers and why is she
important to the science and art of
Nursing?
Rogers was a highly educated nurse who earned her doctorate degree
from Johns Hopkins University in 1954, wrote 200+ articles, 3 books and
founded the Society of Rogerian Scholars (1988)
Developed a Conceptual model of nursing that focused on the impact
energy fields and patterns have in nurse, patient and environmental
interactions
Rogers saw human beings as pandimensional (without physical or
psychological boundaries), resulting in a “unitary whole” with sharing and
exchanging of energy occurring within one’s environment
2
3. Key Conceptual Terms
What does Martha mean by “Energy fields”?
The fundamental unit of both the living and nonliving; infinite, pandimensional,
unpredictable – Rogers’s definition of a Unitary Human Being
What does Martha mean by “Patterns”?
Energy fields that represent the person’s Whole existence – they are intangible,
non-visible manifestations but perceptually present in all interactions
3
4. Martha’s Definition of Homeodynamics
The way in which a person’s life process evolves
Physiological equilibrium (homeostasis) of person
Consists of:
Resonancy: continuous movement from lower to higher frequency wave patterns
between person and environment; postulated to be associated with a heightened
sense of well-being
Helicy: the unpredictable changes between person and environment which foster
creativity, innovation and problem-solving
Integrality: continuous interactive rhythms between person and environment
Synchrony: continuous change that happens simultaneously between person and
environment
Reciprocy: continuous interaction between human and environment
4
5. Rogers’s Metaparadigm
Nursing:
requires specific learning
considered a profession
both an empirical science and art
purpose is to promote health and well-
being for all persons
exists for the care of people and life
process of humans
Person:
an open system continuously connected
to the environment
Whole in the truest sense and non-
reducible, comprised of patterns and
pandimensional energy fields
Health:
passive means without illness (wellness)
relates to a person’s value system and
personal cultural interpretation, consisting
of both high and low values
“life process” is filled with dynamic and
creative unity with one’s environment
Environment:
irreducible, pandimensional sharing of
energy and patterns with humans through
synchronous interactions
5
6. Examples of Homeodynamic Elements in Nurse-
Patient Interactions
A patient in acute pain (= low level of resonancy)
Medicating a patient in pain (= high level of resonancy; synchrony
between person and environment)
Alternative treatment modalities such as Reiki, Imagery, Therapeutic Touch
(= helical interventions)
Working collaboratively with the patient (person) to address what he/she
considers health, such as a weight loss program (= synchrony, helicy)
The nurse approaches the patient (person) in a calm manner and the
patient responds positively (= reciprocy, synchrony)
6
7. Case Scenario
Bill is hospitalized for unrelenting chest pain and shortness of breath. Bill’s
resonancy level is quite low, requiring pain medication, oxygen, and
supportive care provided by nursing. Bill is experiencing integrality,
synchrony and reciprocy with his environment. Bill undergoes a cardiac
catherization, followed by a successful CABG procedure and receives
wound care, pain management, disease and medication education by
nursing. Bill tells his nurse he values having survived his heart attack and
believes he has a chance to start over. He wants to quit smoking and
reduce his stress level to become more healthy. The nurse educates Bill on
smoking cessation options and stress reduction techniques, such as
meditation, and guided imagery. Bill has received helical interventions
and continues in a state of integrality with his environment.
