title: [Hospital nursing conducted according to Rogers' theory. The participating process of human field patterning in a clinical environment].
abstract: The participating process of human field patterning in an acute-care environment Scientific story-telling is the basis of this article, which describes the care of a patient within the conceptual framework of Martha Rogers. Dr. Mary Madrid, a nurse at New York University Hospital and a student of Rogers, describes the continuous process of intentional pattern changes of the human energy field. The human energy field finds itself in an ongoing, mutual and integral process with the environmental energy field. Madrid elucidates in this way that the human energy field is integral to a continuous, mutual process of becoming and enfolding with the universe. The theory of Barrett, derived from Rogers' "Science of unitary human beings" is applied. Furthermore, nursing interventions congruent with Rogers' system are being described. These are therapeutic touch, guided visualisation, music therapy as well as breathing and relaxation exercises. This scientific story of Madrid is an excellent example of Rogers' science-based nursing.
