Joint injury (inflammation) or osteoarthritis is the most common cause of poor performance in the athletic horse. Osteoarthritis is the ensuing degeneration of joint cartilage due to inflammation/injury. The single most important factor in the inflammation cascade of joint injuries is interleukin-1 (IL-1). Until recently, these injuries have been treated with products like hyaluronic acid, cortisone and polysulphated glycosaminoglycans (PSGAG). Several studies have not been able to demonstrate a significant difference in the clinical improvement of joint injuries treated with hyaluronic acid or PSGAG and saline.

Inledning: Cancer är en ovanlig sjukdom hos barn och ungdomar och i Sverige drabbas cirka 300 styckenårligen. Prognosen har kraftigt förbättrats sedan 1970-talet, framförallt beroende på intensivarebehandlingsmetoder och större möjligheter att åtgärda och förebygga cytostatikans svåra biverkningar.Sjukhusvistelserna blir många och långa för barnen och ungdomarna. Förutom att deras vardagsliv med skolaoch kompisrelationer vänds upp och ned, påverkas hela familjens psykosociala tillvaro. Barnet/ungdomenbehöver sina föräldrar och syskon för att ta sig igenom en tuff cancerbehandling och viss vård, exempelvisantibiotika och intravenös näringstillförsel ges redan i hemmet för att underlätta för familjerna. Att ävenkunna erbjuda viss cytostatikabehandling och/eller understödjande behandling skulle vara ytterligare enmöjlighet för barnen och ungdomarna att få vara i sin normala miljö tillsammans med hela familjen ochövriga vänner.Syfte: Syftet med studien var att kartlägga faktorer som är betydelsefulla inför att ge cytostatika i hemmet tillbarn och ungdomar med cancer.Metod: En litteraturstudie genomfördes av tretton vetenskapliga artiklar som valts ut efter systematisksökning i databaserna Pubmed och Chinal.Resultat: De faktorer som framkom genom litteraturstudien och har betydelse för patientsäkerhet ochvårdkvalitet inför en organisation av cytostatikaadministrering i hemmet delades in i fem kategorier:? Tydlig ansvarsfördelning? Kompetens hos vårdpersonal? Undervisning av föräldrar? Kriterier för urval av patient och familj? Föreskrifter för cytostatikahanteringDiskussion: Det finns en klinisk betydelse i att barnsjuksköterskan, i samråd med ansvarig barnonkolog,med vägledning av den familjefokuserade omvårdnaden samt de faktorer, ?Kompetens hos vårdpersonal?,?Undervisning av föräldrar?, ?Tydlig ansvarsfördelning?, ?Kriterier för urval av patient och familj? och?Föreskrifter för cytostatikahantering? som framkom i denna litteraturstudie kan verka för att möjliggöra förbarn och ungdomar att få viss cytostatikabehandling i sitt hem på ett säkert sätt..
