Energy field disturbance

Energy field disturbance is a pseudoscientific concept rooted in alternative medicine. Supporters of this concept believe it concerns the disruptance of a metaphysical biofield that permeates the body, resulting in poor emotional or physiological health.[1] This concept is often related to therapeutic touch.[2]

NANDA diagnosis and controversy

The North American Nursing Diagnosis Association (NANDA) previously recognized the diagnosis "Disturbed Energy Field" in 1994, prior to implementation of a rule requiring a minimum requirement by evidence in the literature prior to accepting a new diagnosis. Later, NANDA has reported it received feedback questioning the validity of the diagnosis, including criticism from skeptic James Randi. Based on this feedback, NANDA said it would reevaluate this diagnosis based on current scientific evidence.[2]

"Disturbed Energy Field" was removed from the NANDA taxonomy in the 10th edition of Nursing Diagnoses: Definitions & Classification 2015-2017, with the explanation that "...all literature support currently provided for this diagnosis is regarding intervention rather than for the nursing diagnosis itself" (p. 13).[3]

In the 11th edition of NANDA International Nursing Diagnoses: Definitions & Classification, 2018-2020, the diagnosis returned under the name of "Imbalanced energy field", it is inside Domain 4, Class 3.[4][5][6]

Reception

The alleged benefits of therapeutic touch are not supported by any scientific evidence.[7][8]

Superficie alettata

Superfici alettate ottenute per estrusione. Una superficie alettata (o alettatura) è una parete avente una superficie interna (lato processo) ed una superficie esterna (lato ambiente) con aree assai differenti: questo permette al fluido raffreddante, in genere aria, di scambiare più velocemente calore. L'aria ha infatti un basso coefficiente di scambio termico, e per aumentarlo è quindi necessario impiegare una superficie di scambio abbastanza estesa. Si utilizza quindi una superficie alet...

Ford circle

Rational circle tangent to the real line Ford circles for p/q with q from 1 to 20. Circles with q ≤ 10 are labelled as p/q and color-coded according to q. Each circle is tangent to the base line and its neighboring circles. Irreducible fractions with the same denominator have circles of the same size. In mathematics, a Ford circle is a circle in the Euclidean plane, in a family of circles that are all tangent to the x {\displaystyle x} -axis at rational points. For each rational number p / ...
