| home health nurse | A nurse who is responsible for a group of clients in the home setting. Visits clients on a routine basis to assist client and family with care as needed and to teach family the care needed so that the client may remain in his/her home. Synonym: visiting nurse. (05 Mar 2000) |
| home infusion therapy | Use of any infusion therapy on an ambulatory, outpatient, or other non-institutionalised basis. (12 Dec 1998) |
| home nursing | Nursing care given to an individual in the home. The care may be provided by a family member or a friend. Home nursing as care by a non-professional is differentiated from home care services provided by professionals: visiting nurse, home health agencies, hospital, or other organised community group. (12 Dec 1998) |
| home oxygen therapy | A form of oxygen that is typically delivered via nasal cannula. Commonly provided to those with severe heart or lung disease. See: chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. (27 Sep 1997) |
| Home's lobe | The enlarged middle lobe of the prostate gland. (05 Mar 2000) |
| homebound persons | Those unable to leave home without exceptional effort and support; patients (in this condition) who are provided with or are eligible for home health services, including medical treatment and personal care. Persons are considered homebound even if they may be infrequently and briefly absent from home if these absences do not indicate an ability to receive health care in a professional's office or health care facility. (12 Dec 1998) |
| homeless persons | Persons who have no permanent residence. The concept excludes nomadic peoples. (12 Dec 1998) |
| homeless youth | Runaway and homeless children and adolescents living on the streets of cities and having no fixed place of residence. (12 Dec 1998) |
| homelyn | <zoology> The European sand ray (Raia maculata). Synonym: home, mirror ray, and rough ray. Origin: Scot. Hommelin. Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| homemaker services | Non-medical support services, such as food preparation and bathing, given by trained personnel to disabled, sick or convalescent individuals in their home. (12 Dec 1998) |
| homeo- | The same, alike. See: homo-. Origin: G. Homoios, similar (05 Mar 2000) |
| homeobox | <molecular biology> Conserved DNA sequence originally detected by DNA hybridisation in many of the genes that give rise to homeotic and segmentation mutants in Drosophila. The homeobox consists of about 180 nucleotides coding for a sequence of 60 amino acids in a protein, sometimes termed the homeodomain, of which about 80-90% are identical in the various homeodomains identified from Drosophila. Homeoboxes have also been detected in the genomes of vertebrates, with about 75% amino acid homology and a similar sequence has been found in the MAT gene of yeast. The homeobox codes for a protein domain that is involved in binding to DNA. Three subfamilies of homeobox containing proteins can be identified, based on the archetypal Drosophila genes engrailed, Antennapedia and paired. Interestingly, linear order within genome maps to order of expression in embryo. This may be required for the transcriptional silencing of certain homeotic genes (see Polycomb). (11 Nov 1997) |

| homeodomain proteins | Proteins encoded by homeobox genes (genes, homeobox) that exhibit structural similarity to certain prokaryotic and eukaryotic DNA-binding proteins. Homeodomain proteins are involved in the control of gene expression during morphogenesis and development (gene expression regulation, developmental). (12 Dec 1998) |
