Syftet med denna deskriptiva litteraturstudie var att beskriva viktiga aspekter i omvårdnaden av ungdomar med anorexia nervosa och deras föräldrar ur ungdomars, föräldrars och sjuksköterskors perspektiv. De vetenskapliga artiklarna (n=16) hittades i databaserna Medline (PubMed), PsycInfo och Academic Search Elite (ASE) och samtliga genomgick en kvalitetsanalys. I resultatet framkom att det var viktigt att sjuksköterskor utvecklade goda relationsband med anorektiska ungdomar vilket låg till grund för en effektiv behandling. Genom motivation och stöttning kunde sjuksköterskor stärka anorektikerns självkänsla och på så vis lägga en bra grund för en verksam behandling. Sjuksköterskor behövde också sätta upp regler och vara kontrollerande för att hjälpa ungdomarna att hålla sig inom behandlingens ramar.

Blekinge Hospital suffers from a budget shortage of 100 million SEK, while the government now requires that hospitals will no longer be running a deficit. Blekinge Hospital will then use their limited resources to survive in the future and the activity must be enhanced in order to keep costs low without having to lay off personnel. The idea is that the organisation should be more efficient with a more efficient resource usage. Performance measurement systems are important tools for achieving the policies set out within an organization, measuring and evaluating performance is a way to see where improvements in efficiency may be necessary in the business. Balanced Scorecard (BSC) is one of several measuring systems, where the focus is on measuring non-financial performances.

BackgroundMalnutrition in hospitalized patients has a high prevalence. This led to an action plan against malnutrition that was conducted in 2012 at Enköpings hospital. This paper investigated the nursing staff perceptions of this project on nutrition and nutrient intake in two different departments, and whether these perceptions differ between departments. MethodAn inductive approach with semi-structured interview was used in interviews with eight persons from the staff of the two departments of the hospital in Enköping involved in the project. Interviews were recorded, transcribed and analyzed by content analysis. ResultsIn the interview material four categories were identified as well as six different subcategories. The different categories were: "Attitude", "Knowledge", "Procedures" and "Workload".

Syfte: Syftet med studien var att beskriva vilka faktorer som kan orsaka risk för fel i samband med sjuksköterskans läkemedelshantering samt vad sjuksköterskan kan göra för att förebygga att fel uppstår inom den somatiska slutenvården. Syftet var också att granska artiklarnas kvalité utifrån urval och bortfall.Metod: En beskrivande litteraturstudie som baseras på 13 vetenskapliga artiklar med både kvalitativ och kvantitativ ansats. Litteratursökningen genomfördes i databaserna PubMed, Cinahl och Academic Search Elite. Resultat: Faktorer som orsakade att sjuksköterskan begick fel i läkemedelshanteringen var hög arbetsbelastning, bristande kunskaper inom farmakologi, mindre erfarenhet av sjuksköterskeyrket och avbrott i arbetet. Förebyggande åtgärder för att minimera risken att ett fel uppstod i samband med läkemedelshanteringen var att sjuksköterskan ökade sina kunskaper i farmakologi, bidrog till förbättrad arbetsmiljö och kommunikation med annan vårdpersonal samt var nogrannare vid kontroller.Slutsats: Flera förekommande faktorer som orsakade fel i samband med sjuksköterskans läkemedelshantering som hög arbetsbelastning och bristande kunskaper inom farmakologi borde inte vara svåra att förebygga.

Sammanfattning   Bakgrund:                      Typ 2 diabetes är en   progressiv och omfattande sjukdom.    Sjukdomen kan ge många komplikationer om man inte hanterar den väl.   Aktiva livsstilsförändringar såsom anpassad kost och regelbundna motionsvanor   är betydande i behandlingen. Detta leder till ett positiv inflytande på   blodsockret och egenvården. Den teoretiska utgångspunkten som framkommer i   uppsatsen är Dorothea Orem omvårdnadsteori som ger en tydlig definition av begreppet   egenvård. Sjuksköterskan har en viktig roll i individernas hantering av   egenvård.

This paper is written to take a close look at teaching methods used at the Summer Academy (SHS), which is held at Södertörns Högskola in Stockholm. SHS is a subdivision of the institution of teaching education, which annually, during summertime, offers an eight-day program for pupils between 13-15 years of age, from different schools located in socio-economically disadvantaged suburbs of Stockholm. The intention of SHS is to give the participating pupils an insight into higher education, especially that of university. The purpose of the activities, such as field trips, guided tours and corporate visits, is to make pupils aware of their own responsibility for their educational situation through different methods of knowledge transfer, to diversify the means of the education, and to bring awareness to the array of possibilities which they have access to within the Swedish system of tertiary education.The study is based on six deep-interviews, three with pupils and three with student mentors. Together with 131 surveys from the course given during the summer of 2014, and theories of John Dewey on ?Learning-by-doing?, the results show that pupils participation in SHS give them a better understanding for, and knowledge about their own educational responsibility.Another question this paper seeks to address is how significantly the SHS program is changing the pupil?s experience of education in general and their view upon higher education specifically.

ABSTRACTBackgroundWhen faced with an unexpected cardiac arrest the ambulance nurse is in responsible for taking advanced actions to create a clear airway. Two accepted methods for this is endotracheal intubation and application of laryngeal mask.AimThe purpose of this study was to examine the use of endotracheal intubation compared to application of the laryngeal mask in unexpected cardiac arrest.MethodLiterature study with quantitative approach. A systematic search of 21 articles comparing the laryngeal mask with the endotracheal intubation has been made using Pub-Med and CINAHL. A quality review according to Forsberg and Wengström has been made.ResultsLaryngeal mask had a higher rate of successful applications compared with endotracheal intubation. Time for applying the laryngeal mask was shorter in seven out of ten of the studied articles.

In today?s technological society, there are increasingly less physical demands on the locomotor system. However, despite that notion strength and function in the hand?s complex biomechanical system are in fact both needed to cope with daily life. The grip function is a main function in the hand and is used in many examples of scientific research, for instance when assessing physical health and predicting the probabilities of premature mortality.

Today every organization is committed to some kind of environmental scanning in order to get necessary knowledge of the world around them. The acquisition, organization and storage of information in combination with a strategic use, is today an important factor for a successful organisation in any sector of our society.In this Master thesis I have studied how an organisation such as The Confederation of Swedish Enterprise (Svenskt Näringsliv) handles its information resources. I have also looked at the flow of information within the organization. The Confederation of Swedish Enterprise is Sweden?s largest business federation representing 50 member organizations and 55 000 member companies.

Bakgrund: Homosexuella personer i världen får ofta erfara diskriminering, känslor av otrygghet, homofobi, fördomar och exkluderande bemötande från vårdpersonal i samband med vårdmöten. Heteronormativt bemötande är vanligt i samhället, vilket bland annat innebär ett antagande om att människor är heterosexuella. Sjuksköterskan skall i sin profession se till varje individ och behandla alla patienter lika. Till grund för detta finns olika styrdokument och lagar som ska säkerställa att mänskliga rättigheter följs. Syfte: Syftet med studien var att undersöka vuxna homosexuella kvinnor och mäns erfarenheter och upplevelser av vårdmöten.

Cost cuts are not always a natural outcome of IT-outsourcing. Many companies that have outsourced their IT-operations consider it to be problematic and complex to exercise management control and reach cost control which was the purpose of the IT-outsourcing. Purpose: To describe and analyze what affect IT-outsourcing has on a company?s management control system and a company?s possibility to exercise cost control.

This literature study describes the ways in which the spread of rabies can be prevented in India, what guidelines are set and also which methods have proved most effective. Every year rabies causes the death of around 20 000 people in India, which makes the prevalence in the country the highest in the world. The main source for human infection is bite wounds from infected dogs. People and animals can be vaccinated both prophylactic and post-exposure prophylactic (PEP), despite this the disease continues to claim high number of victims. The majority of those dying are young men and children from the poorer part of the population. Knowledge among the Indian population on rabies and its transmission routes, wound care and vaccinations is very limited.

This thesis primarily includes a study on whether companies can develop a mathematical activity that supports students' motivation in mathematics. The work was done together with Midroc Electro, a company that pays attention to the difficulty of recruiting and therefore was interested in investigating how the business world would be able to contribute.The thesis can be divided into three stages. The first part comprised by a exploration into research on student motivation regarding mathematics as well as numerous interviews with engineers to see how the research findings did fit with Midroc Electros reality. In these studies it became clear that the student who aims for a profession whose education or work requires math belongs to the group of students who primarily manage their studies in mathematics, that is, those that have the greatest motivation to work hard and complete their studies.Research information and interviews were compared and resulted in the thesis second part, Midroc Challenge. An activity where students primarily came to learn about the engineering profession and secondly how mathematics can be used in the engineering profession.
