Minimal intervention dentistry and older patients part 2: minimally invasive operative interventions

Dental Update, 2014
As described in the first paper of this two part series, the expansion of our older population and the concomitant reduction in levels of edentulism will result in an increase in the number of patients presenting in general practice with complex restorative challenges.

Design with Minimal Intervention

Proceedings of the 2018 Designing Interactive Systems Conference, 2018
Industrial design focuses on minimizing fabrication variability, aiming for identical products, while craft practice often results in unpredictable outcomes. We rely on crackle, an explicit pottery phenomenon that renders a pattern of cracks in ceramic glazing, to produce craft-unique outcomes in a moderately controlled design process. With the help of

Minimal, negligible and negligent interventions

Social Science & Medicine, 2015
Many interventions are not disruptive enough of the patterns that entrench poor health and health inequities. Ways forward may require a break with tradition to embrace system-focussed theory, complex logic modelling, and ways of funding and responding to problems that address the competition of ideas and needs.

Minimal intervention: advanced lesions.

Quintessence international (Berlin, Germany : 1985), 2000
Minimal intervention techniques are generally considered in relation to initial carious lesions. However, it appears logical to apply the same principles to extensive cavities as well as to the replacement of failed existing restorations. As the cavity becomes larger, there is an increasing need to consider protection of remaining cusps because they ...

Minimal intervention: early lesions.

Quintessence international (Berlin, Germany : 1985), 2000
The use of modified cavity designs for the treatment of initial carious lesions can be justified on the grounds that, because no restorative material can adequately replace natural tooth structure for the long term, preservation of natural tooth structure is important.

Interventions associated with minimal Fontan mortality

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2000
The operative mortality rate for the first 400 Fontan procedures at this institution was 15% but declined to 4% for the next 100 procedures.The cases of 100 consecutive patients receiving the Fontan procedure and associated with this change in mortality rate were reviewed to determine associations.The mortality rate in the first and second 50 patients ...

Transradial Intervention for Minimizing Bleeding Complications in Percutaneous Coronary Intervention

The American Journal of Cardiology, 2009
Femoral arterial access site complications are responsible for a substantial proportion of the bleeding complications that occur in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Because bleeding is associated with an increase in morbidity and mortality, pharmacologic and nonpharmacologic strategies associated with lower bleeding risk ...

Minimal intervention management of the older patient

British Dental Journal, 2017
With an aging population, dentists need to be aware of the risks which come to their elderly patients from retained teeth and exposed root surfaces. Oral health problems in the later years of life are multifactorial, with lifestyle, plaque and salivary factors remaining paramount.
