Röntgensjuksköterskan hade omvårdnadsansvaret för patientens tillstånd så länge denne befann sig på röntgenavdelningen och skulle förbereda patienten inför undersökningen med den information och det stöd som krävdes. Även moment såsom planering av undersökning, patientomvårdnad, undersökningen i sig, bedömning av undersökningens kvalitet, bildgranskning, underhåll av apparatur samt verksamhetsuppföljning ingick i röntgensjuksköterskans arbete. Syftet med denna systematiska litteraturöversikt var att beskriva röntgensjuksköterskors erfarenheter av att ge omvårdnad till patienter som genomgår röntgenundersökning med intravenöst kontrastmedel. Artiklarna till studien hittades i databaserna PubMed, Academic Search Elite och Cinahl. Studien baserades på 27 vetenskapliga artiklar som kvalitetsgranskat utifrån ett granskningsprotokoll, där de skulle ha kvalitetsnivå medel eller hög.

Bakgrund: Trots all forskning och kunskap om vikten av fysisk aktivitet ökar livsstilrelaterade sjukdomar. WHO (Världshälsoorganisationen) har klassificerat fysisk inaktivitet som en av fyra ohälsosamma levnadsvanor som vid minimering kan förebygga sjukdom och för tidig död. Fysisk aktivitet på recept (FaR) inkluderar hälsofrämjande hälso- och sjukvård och ökad fysisk aktivitet som är två av Sveriges elva folkhälsomål. Syftet med litteraturstudien var att undersöka hur fysisk aktivitet på recept påverkar den fysiska aktivitetsnivån. Metod: En litteraturstudie gjordes och sökning utfördes i LibHub och Academic Search Elite av artiklar publicerade mellan 2005 och 2012.

This master thesis was written for Arla Foods and the result of the thesisserves to gain Arla Foods in its work with chemical hazardous and to bringnew academic results. The thesis aims to create a common methodology forrisk analysis with the handling of chemicals.The theories displayed in this thesis focuses on different risk managementmethods in order to build up a framework out of which a risk management toolwas created. The main primary data source consists of interviews held withemployees within Arla Foods at different facilities.The risk management tool can be found in appendix K.Available recommendations for how to evaluate risks with chemicals can befound at appropriate government agencies. These recommendations aredrawn up to suite small and medium enterprises and therefore are to narrowto make a good foundation for analysing chemical risks at large companies.With the legislation and government demands in mind, a tool has beencreated to fit a large company?s needs when managing chemical risks.

Höftabduktorerna har en viktig funktion för nedre extremitet då muskelgruppen hjälper till att bibehålla bäckenet i rätt position för att motverka adduktion och inåtrotation av höften. Svaga höftabduktorer har påvisats hos personer med smärttillstånd, såsom patellofemoralt smärtsyndrom, knäartros och tractus iliotibialissyndrom. Om höftabduktorerna har betydande roll vid rehabilitering av dessa smärttillstånd bör interventionen uppmärksammas inom det sjukgymnastiska området. Syftet med studien var att se vid vilka smärttillstånd i och kring knäleden det gjorts interventionsstudier innefattande styrketräning av höftabduktorerna och därefter se till effekten på smärtupplevelse vid rehabilitering. Studien var en systematisk litteraturstudie.

This degree project has been carried out by Carolina Rapp and Jenny Tauson, students at Innovation and Design Engineer program at the Faculty of Technology and science at Karlstad University. The project was carried during Spring of 2009 and took 15 weeks of full time work.  Doppelmayr/Garaventa Group is an Austria/Switzerland corporate group and its associated company Doppelmayr Scandinavia lies in Sunne, Sweden. Doppelmayr/Garaventa Group is the world quality and technology leader in ropeway engineering. The degree project goal was to develop a new shaping of a surface lift. There are two kinds of surface lifts, platter and T-bars. The two kinds of surface lifts have some variation in design but only minor differences.

Zakrisdal and the west coast region of Karlstad was at one time a protected area where the ammunition factory AmF Zakrisdal 1941-1994 was situated. This factory manufactured explosives for the Swedish armed forces and for export. In this context it is an interesting paradox that the production of ammunition, mines and armorpiercing grenades for more than 50 years has preserved the environment surrounding the factory.The factory is now gone and the production is moved to Karlskoga. Plans are being made to build housing for 3-4000 residents and other enterprises within the area. The area now stands before yet another change, most likely the most profound to date.The inspiration for this work comes from the economic historic Jan Jörnmark.

Essay in political science, C-level, by Ronak Bozorgi, fall semester 2007. Tutor:P.O. Norell. ?The affect of financial decline on politician?s activity.

The purpose of this thesis is to historically describe how Fédération Internationale deFootball Association (FIFA) interprets how the discourse of anti-racism has developed withintheir own organization throughout the years. In doing so, the thesis lands in a present timeperspective and then aims to identify the norms which FIFA, according to the organizationitself, stands for in regard to anti-racism within world football. That standard of behavior isthen put in contrast with the hidden ideological conceptions which, with the applying of apost-colonial perspective, can be found in the rhetoric used by FIFA in expressing themselvesabout their anti-racism stand.The methodology used in this thesis builds upon a qualitative text analysis approach inwhich solely primary sources available through the official website fifa.com are considered.The study finds that anti-racism is a relatively young concept within FIFA and that the communicatedideal standard of behavior circles around terms such as unity, diversity, solidarityand equality. Further on, FIFA clearly articulates how the universal power of football as suchcan unite people and that FIFA, as the administrator of this the world?s greatest sport, can setan example for the rest of the world to follow when it comes to notions of tolerance and solidarityin preventing racism in the future.In following the terminology provided by the post-colonial theorists Homi Bhabha andGyatri Spivak, and applying the concepts of fixity and essentialism on the rhetoric aroundanti-racism, the study discovers that FIFA, in sharp contrast to the articulated norms, in factexpress ideological conceptions of skin as a barrier of difference between people, and thatFIFA on good grounds can be accused of reproducing racist stereotypes rather than bridgingthem.The study concludes that its findings clearly demonstrates the increased need of consideringsports, and more specifically international sport organizations, as a basis for researchwithin the academic field of International Relations, and that a postcolonial perspective verymuch can provide alternative understandings of how these actors operate and what influencethey might have in the international system..

The aim for this paper is to investigate how a limited number of youth recreation leaders and leisure-time pedagogues view their vocational competence, which kind of power the persons in the essay experience to have in their workplace and which kind of status they experience that they have in comparison with other occupational groups in their schools. The final aim of the paper is to find out how teachers interact with youth recreation leaders and leisure-time pedagogues when it comes to their vocational competence. My questions are:How do a group of youth recreation leaders and leisure-time pedagogues view their professional assignments?How does a group of youth recreation leaders and leisure-time pedagogues view their power in their workplace in comparison with other occupational groups?How do a limited number of youth recreation leaders and leisure-time pedagogues view their status in relation to teachers, other occupational-groups and parents? Which role have my respondents been assigned by their team and why do they think they have gotten that role?To answer these questions I have used a qualitative method which includes four in depth interviews. The overall theoretical perspectives are symbolic interactionism and social constructivism.

Bakgrund: Varje år föds 1 % av alla barn i Sverige med medfött hjärtfel. Barnet med denna diagnos och dess föräldrar är i stort behov av omvårdnad. Viktiga komponenter i denna omvårdnad är stöd och uppmuntran, information på rätt nivå för mottagaren och att frågor blir besvarade. Föräldrar till barn med medfött hjärtfel lider i större mån än andra föräldrar av någon form av psykosocial stress eller ångest relaterat till barnets diagnos. Syfte: Syftet var att beskriva föräldrars upplevelser av att ha barn med medfödda hjärtfel.

Bakgrund: Ischemiska hjärtsjukdomar leder till att hjärtmuskulaturen drabbas av försämrat blodflöde och därmed syrebrist. Sjukdomar representerade i denna grupp är exempelvis kärlkramp, hjärtsvikt och hjärtinfarkt. Ungefär en procent av Sveriges befolkning, cirka 90 000 individer drabbas årligen av någon form av ischemisk hjärtsjukdom. Den vanligaste orsaken är fetthaltiga ämnen ansamlats i hjärtats kranskärl så kallad åderförkalkning. I vissa fall kan skadan som orsakats av ischemiska hjärtsjukdomar behöva åtgärdas genom operation.

Bakgrund: Oavsett om döendet äger rum i hemmet, på sjukhus eller hospice så har sjuksköterskan ett stort ansvar. Således krävs det att hon eller han har ingående kunskap om vad det kan innebära att vara svårt sjuk och vårdberoende för att kunna leverera en optimal vård. Den som bäst kan hjälpa oss som sjuksköterskor att förstå upplevelser av att vara döende; är patienten. Syfte: Belysa vad patienter i palliativ vård upplever som viktiga aspekter för sin omvårdnad. Metod: Litteraturstudie av åtta stycken kvalitativa vetenskapliga artiklar.

Diabetes Mellitus typ 1 är en autoimmun kronisk sjukdom som kan drabba människor i olika åldrar men framför allt barn och ungdomar. I Sverige finns det nästan 8000 barn som har diabetes. Det är omkring trettio procent av barnen som behandlas på en vuxenavdelning av olika anledningar. Även om barn och ungdomar kan ta ett större eget ansvar för att sköta sin sjukdom när de blir äldre så behöver de fortfarande föräldrarnas stöd. Familj i sin helhet kan förändras om någon av familjemedlemmar blir sjuk.

Problem formulation: Recent results from the European Food Information Council?s consumer research on nutrition information and food labelling revealed that most consumers have little understanding of the nutrition information found on food products, feel that there is little authority regulating these matters and wish for a more trusted source of information and regulation and lastly it was found that consumers accept their limitations and have little motivation to even read or learn about nutrition information. Thus what are the reactions of the various legal authorities to this problem? How are food retailers and producers responding to the needs of the consumer? How are consumers then reacting to these two players in the industry and the changes they are making?Purpose: The purpose of this research is to gain new perspective and a better understanding of relationship between consumers, companies and legal instruments in relation to nutrition and health claim labelling of food products. Method: The nature of this multi-disciplinary research has led to the study of all three areas, business administration (containing consumer behaviour) and business law, which are contained in this paper.
