The carbon dioxide production of the chick embryo cultured in vitro has been determined during the first 24 h of post-laying development using a non-invasive conductometric microtechnique. The mean CO2 production of the whole blastoderm (1) increased from 16 nmol/h at laying to 231 nmol/h at early neurulation, (2) became dependent on exogenous glucose and (3) was closely linked to mechanical tension generated in the blastoderm (loosening from vitelline membrane resulted in a decrease of 56%). In our experimental conditions, no significant influence of carbonic anhydrase on the CO2 production has been detected. The value of the respiratory exchange ratio varied from about 3 at pregastrular stages to 1 at neurula stage and CO2 was produced transiently in presence of antimycin A. Such results indicate that the source of CO2 is not exclusively mitochondrial and that the relative proportions of mitochondrial and non-mitochondrial CO2 productions might vary significantly throughout the early development. Our findings confirm that the metabolism of the chick embryo becomes more and more oxidative from laying onwards and suggest that the modifications of metabolism observed during the studied period of development could be associated with functional differentiation.

The purpose of the thesis was to explore expectations of elderly people on the nurse-client relationship and interaction in home care. The aim is to improve the quality of care to better meet the needs of the clients. A qualitative approach was adopted. Semi-structured theme interviews were used for data collection. The interviews were conducted during spring 2006. Six elderly clients of a private home care company in Southern Finland acted as informants. Content analysis was used as the method of data analysis. The findings suggest that clients expect nurses to provide professional care with loving-kindness. Trust and mutual, active interaction were expected from the nurse-client relationship. Clients considered it important that the nurse recognizes each client's individual needs. The nurse was expected to perform duties efficiently, but in a calm and unrushed manner. A mechanic performance of tasks was considered negative. Humanity was viewed as a crucial element in the nurse-client relationship. Clients expressed their need to be seen as human beings. Seeing beyond the illness was considered important. A smiling nurse was described to be able to alleviate pain and anxiety. Clients hoped to have a close relationship with the nurse. The development of a close relationship was considered to be more likely if the nurse is familiar and genuine. Clients wish the nurses to have a more attending presence. Clients suggested that the work areas of the nurses could be limited so that they would have more time to transfer from one place to another. Clients felt that they would benefit from this as well. The nurses were expected to be more considerate. Clients wished for more information regarding changes that affect their care. They wished to be informed about changes in schedules and plans. Clients hoped for continuity from the nurse-client relationship. Considering the expectations of clients promotes client satisfaction. Home care providers have an opportunity to reflect their own care behaviour on the findings. To better meet the needs of the clients, nurses could apply the concept of loving-kindness in their work, and strive for a more attending presence.
