Working with NH patients was considered important and meaningful, with the GPs striving for the patient's well-being with special consideration to the continuum of ageing.
If the water in the catchment can be represented by a single store with a continuum of ages, mean transit times of the stream water range from ∼6 up to 40 years, which indicates the large retention potential for this catchment.
In order to compare changes in the genital system before and after the maturation molt, it was necessary to evaluate both male age groups along a single continuum of age.
The first category included in this theme was: The continuum of ageing (Table 3).
As indicated by the STEPP plots for the current joint analysis, differences in treatment effect are likely to occur across the continuum of age.
The main focus for the GPs was the well-being of the patients with special consideration to the continuum of ageing, risk of medicalisation and the need of nursing care.
"I want to give the patients a good quality of life, and I follow them in the continuum of ageing, with their progressive weakness and adapt medical interventions for this".
(GP 10) "I want to give the patients a good quality of life, and I follow them in the continuum of ageing, with their progressive weakness and adapt medical interventions for this".
The STEPP analyses for the IBCSG trial graphically showed that differences in treatment effect are likely to occur across the continuum of age, with CMF×3 compromising DFS for patients <40 compared with CMF×6.
We found two main themes describing GPs' experiences of working with elderly in NH: 1. concern for the patient including three categories (The continuum of ageing, Care needs and medicalisation, View on the nurse as a key person for the well-being of the patient) and 2. Sustainable working conditions including four categories (Holism, Collaboration, Freedom and variation and Meaningfulness).
