Patientcentrerad vård har varit och är i fokus vid omorganisation och kvalitetsförbättringsarbete inom sjukvården. Det finns ett växande intresse hos myndigheter, forskare och patientföreningar nationellt och internationellt och det ställs numer krav på att vården skall vara mer patientcentrerad. Patientens upplevelse av vården och dennes livsvärld bör vara i fokus. Patientcentrerad vård är ett stort och komplext begrepp, vars definition kan tolkas som oklar och inte alltid enhetlig. Syftet med litteraturstudien var att försöka visa hur sjuksköterskans roll i patientcentrerad vård kan beskrivas.

AimThe aim of this study was to find out how the research that has changed CPR training developed from a historical perspective. The question at issue was: When the recommendations for chest compressions/ventilation, defibrillator and education have been changed, what kind of research led to the development?MethodTo fulfill the aim of this study we chose a review process. First we read the international guidelines for cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) published by the American Heart Association (AHA), from year 1980 until year 2010. Secondly we chose the most important changes that had been made within the issues we had selected, then we examined the research that had supported these issues.

Den tekniska tjänsten är idag av stor betydelse för att Försvarsmakten skall fungera. Uppgifter inomden tekniska tjänsten är bland annat att hantera driftstörningar som inträffar på materiel och hantera uppföljningar av dessa inträffade fel. Syftet med den här uppsatsen är att undersöka två olika uppföljningssystem för driftstörningar, ett system från armén och ett system från flygvapnet. Utifråndetta diskuteras systemen ur olika synvinklar med fokus på bland annat fördelar och nackdelar. Under bakgrundsbeskrivningen av de olika systemen visade det sig att ARGUS och DA-flyg följer upp i två olika riktningar vid driftstörningar.

Through the birth and arise of the Internet people has been given great opportunities to make selective selfpresentations online, which in the long run has resulted in an easier retaining of the self- esteem than in the offline world. Simultaneously, the self- esteem has been viewed as a cause for both success and failure since it plays a vital role regarding our attitudes, emotional reactions and behavior. On this basis I wanted to study the relation between self- esteem and self-presentations closer. The purpose of the study is to describe and analyze how some users who publish training photos of themselves on Instagram experience how they present themselves within this forum and how these presentations affect/ are affected by their perceived self-esteem in their everyday life. The study is based on theories regarding self- esteem through Maslows? hierarchy of needs, the inner and outer self-esteem, and social comparisons.

Introduction: More and more children and young people get the diagnosis celiac disease established. Celiac is a life-long disease, which means that the child during the rest of its life has to be on a strictly gluten-free diet. There are few studies so far, which have examined how children having a life-long disease with food treatment and increasing prevalence really experience their health related quality of life (HRQoL).Purpose: The purpose of the study was to examine how children (8 ? 18 years old) suffering from celiac valued their HRQoL and to illustrate as well whether the age of the child and its extent of disease when it was taken ill affected the child?s evaluation of HRQoL later in life. The purpose was also to compare whether the children?s parents valued the HRQoL of their children to the same extent as the children did.Method: 160 children, 54 boys and 102 girls were included in the study.

De senaste åren har vikten av en trovärdig finansiell rapportering av hög revisionskvalité lyfts fram. En högre kvalité säkerställs genom att besluta om gemensamma regler och principer för revisionsbyråer. Intresset av revisionen är olika och således finns olika syn på syftet med revisionen och vad den bör innehålla. Tolkningsskillnaderna gör att hög revisionskvalité upplevs olika. Syftet med vår undersökning är att förklara ?hög? revisionskvalité utifrån revisorers och revisionens olika intressenters perspektiv samt att identifiera eventuella skillnader mellan revisorernas och dessa intressenters syn. En kvantitativ ansats har använts och utifrån teorin har sex hypoteser skapats.

Abstract Background: Type 1 diabetes is a chronic disease that worldwide greatly increases among children and adolescents. Major demands are required from the individual who has this disease, which also requires significant knowledge from the nurses so they can be able to develop and create individual conditions for children and adolescents. Thus, the children and the adolescents can be able to take responsibility and feel secure in their own care. The nurse's techniques and specific tools in this work are however not particularly noteworthy and therefore needs to be advised.Aim: The aim of this study was to describe the experiences nurses have of supporting adolescents, between 12-18 years, with type 1 diabetes to an increased understanding of the disease and also to examine the methodological aspect data collection in the articles of this study. Method: A descriptive, literature study according to Polit and Beck (2012).

This paper exposes the problems and challenges organizations face when integrating aged systems, web based systems and web services. The paper focuses on how people with different titles in an organization experience systems integration and the factors that contribute to project failure or success. The research methodology used in this is Grounded Theory and the resulting theory of this paper has taken form through the coding of transcribed interviews, which have gone through a constant comparing to other theories in the area of interest, mostly articles about success factors in system integration. The resulting outcome is a success model aimed to describe the underlying indicators to achieve project success.The success model consists of three factors that contribute to success in integration projects. The factors are: globalization, governance and balance.

The purpose of this essay was to examine the different aspects of motivational work with active heroin-using clients from a social workers point of view.

We then analyzed the answers by using an abductive research strategy, testing the collected empirical data against our chosen theoretical perspectives.

The aim of the project was to investigate if Swedish rodents, brown rat (Rattus norvegicus), house mouse (Mus musculus), wood mouse (Apodemus spp) and water vole (Arvicola terrestris) captured in pig herds and in urban areas, constitute a reservoir for pathogenic Leptospira spp. Under Swedish conditions leptospirosis gives rise to reproductive disorders in pigs and symptoms of flu in humans. It has long been established that rodents are chronic carriers of pathogenic leptospires in their kidneys, and can spread the bacteria with urine. The old nomenclature of serovoars is still in use, but a new system of genetic classification has developed and today the genus Leptospira contains 17 species. There are several diagnostic test developed for leptospirosis.

EAV is transmitted in two different ways: by aerosols, or by venereal transmission.

Särskilda undervisningsgrupper för elever med Aspergers syndrom har under 2000?talet vuxit fram både i grund- och gymnasieskolan, trots en nationell vision om en skola för alla. Detta framgår i Skolverkets rapport (2009)Skolan och Aspergers syndrom ? Erfarenheter från skolpersonal och forskare. Syftet med den här studien är att belysa hur ungdomar med diagnosen Aspergers syndrom beskriver sina skolerfarenheter utifrån villkor och möjligheter till lärande och utveckling samt belysa vilka generella och specifika pedagogiska implikationer som framträder ur ungdomarnas erfarenheter.Studien är en kvalitativ studie med en fenomenologisk utgångspunkt vilken studerar individers perspektiv på sin inre värld.
