Theoretically, through analyses of various corpora of situated language use, reasonably detailed features can become a part of the general descriptive model of context of situation – one which could apply to a range of different situations, and indeed, there is much work underway to this end [e.g. Bowcher 2007, 2014; (Butt D.: Parameters of context, unpublished); Hasan 2014].
When we explore the semantic realization of contextual structures by means of rhetorical-relational complexes along the lines suggested here and illustrated by reference to Text 1 (see the analysis in Figure 8), it becomes possible to adjust the division of descriptive labour between context and semantics.
Interpretation was supported by Walt and Gilson's policy framework [ 20], a descriptive triangle connecting context, content, and process with actors (i.e. stakeholders) central.
We acknowledge the following limitations to our analysis: The presented data are descriptive; in the context of the recently performed 'BVM-Reg' study further data will become available and contribute to our current knowledge concerning fluid overload, blood-volume monitoring-guided dry weight reduction and cardiovascular parameters.
