Background: Every year, patients die while waiting for an organ due to the shortage of donors. When a patient is declared brain dead, the question of possible organ donation arises. In some cases, the patient is registered in the donor registry, but sometimes their stance on donation is unknown. The next of kin then become involved in the decision and are asked both what the patient would have wanted and how they themselves feel about donating their deceased family member?s organs. Aim: The aim of this literature review was to describe relatives' experiences of the decision-making process regarding organ donation after death.

According to international and national literacy studies (PISA, PIRLS) Swedish boys are inferior to Swedish girls when it comes to reading. There can be numerous reasons to that statement. One is that Swedish teachers require more knowledge about communication as an important component in literacy. In spite of this shortcoming, Swedish girls manage to gain sufficient literacy. Why is that? The aim of this survey was to examine if there were any differences between girls and boys regarding communication skills when they begin in school.The main questions taken in account were:Which differences and/or similarities in communication skills are discernible between boys and girls this particular preschool?How do boys and girls communicate with each other in different room contexts on this particular preschool?           To be able to answer the questions, I adopted observations and audio recordings from children aged five.

The present study aims to investigate the phonological development of typically developing monolingual Swedish speaking children aged three to four years. The result could be used in the standardization of a new phonological test material for clinical speech and language pathology assessments. One-hundred and thirty four children aged three and four years (73 girls and 61 boys) were assessed with the new material. The children were tested in kindergartens in three communities in southeastern Sweden. Their assessments were audio recorded, transcribed phonetically and analyzed with Percentage Phonemes Correct (PPC) and Percentage of Words Correct (PWC).

The purpose of this study is to investigate the lunchtime from a language development perspective. It will compare two preschools with different ways of organizing mealtimes and observe the conversations between teachers and children. It will also study the ways in which a meal is served and how it affects the conversations. In one of the preschools the children eat in a proper dining room where the food is served as a buffet while in the other preschool the children eat in the preschoolarea and the food is served in bowls on the tables. I also want to investigate how two of these preschool teachers reflect on the mealtimes as part of the language development plan.

The aim of this thesis is to investigate how students in higher education use talking books. This has been inves-tigated through qualitative interviews with nine students. The intention has been to find out how they use talk-ing books and why they have chosen to do it in the way they have, looking specifically on whether there are strategies shared by most of the interviewees.As a theoretical basis of the thesis I have chosen a study, described by Sigrid Hongset, where dyslectic pu-pils tried using printed text and text on tape, as well as both simultaneously. George Kingsley Zipfs ?Principle of least effort? will act as a supplemental theory.The interviews show that the students use talking books in different ways.

This study is about care managers, who process in the care of the elderly, regarding to needs, rules, regulations, guidelines and their freedom of space. The purpose with this study is to understand how the care managers process out of the basis from the needs of the elderly, the municipal guidelines in relation to the caremanagers freedom of space.The study has a qualitative approach and is based on semistructured interviews with five different care managers.To analyze our interview material we have use the street-level bureaucrat theory by Lipsky and Johansson and the theoretical idea empowerment. Before we started our research about care managers we had an understanding in that the organization had an influence in the judgment of the needs of the elderly. Now we have an understanding in that the relative to the elderly is the one who wants to affect the care manager during the judgment of needs in what effort to make. Our study indicates that it exist insecurity regarding to the municipal guidelines, which was surprising. We thought that the guideline was something positive and a help full tool for the care managers.The result in our research points out that the guidelines makes insecurity instead of comfort.Our study shows that the care managers are contradictory regarding to their freedom of space. In the other hand they consider that their freedom of space is positive, but on the other hand when the municipal guidelines don´t work, they become worried and insecure.It´s the none working municipal guidelines who gives the care managers a huge freedom of space. Which leads to that the care managers is afraid of doing misjudgments. Our result don´t distinguish from other studies made in this subject area. .

Samtalsmöten är en viktig del i människors kontakter med myndigheter. De sätt som dessa samtalsmöten sker på kan påverka den enskildes medverkan, kunskaper och utfall från dessa möten, på olika sätt.Studiens syfte är att analysera och beskriva hur asymmetrier mellan handläggare och klient konstrueras i samtalsmöten om bistånd för äldre och ekonomiskt bistånd samt handläggarens hantering av dessa.Genom att använda diskursiv analysmetod analyseras tio audio-inspelade samtalsmöten och den samtalsinteraktion som sker i dessa när det gäller handläggarnas biståndsbedömning av så väl bistånd för äldre som ekonomiskt bistånd.Resultatet visar att det är av vikt att handläggarna är medvetna om de inneboende asymmetrierna i dessa samtalsmöten som kommer av deras institutionella karaktär. Detta, då handläggaren genom sin hantering av dessa har en stor möjlighet att påverka huruvida asymmetrierna förstärks i samtalsmötet och hur det i sin tur påverkar klienten och deras relation. Resultatet tyder också på att handläggarens hantering av de olika asymmetrierna som framträdde kan äventyra rättssäkerheten för klienten.Resultatet lyfter fram betydelsen av att det är handläggarens medvetenhet eller omedvetenhet om dessa asymmetrier som är avgörande för hur de hanteras och vad det får för effekter för klienten. Studien kan användas för vidare förståelse i praktiska sammanhang om vilka kommunikativa asymmetrier som finns mellan handläggare och klient och hur handläggarens hantering av dessa påverkar interaktionen och relationen dem emellan, samt det utfall som det kan ha för klienten..

Introdukation: Postoperativt illamående och kräkning, PONV (Postoperative Nausea and Vomiting) är en av de vanligaste förekommande biverkningarna postoperativt vilket drabbar cirka en tredjedel av alla opererade patienter. Det är inte bara obehagligt för patienten utan kan även orsaka medicinska komplikationer. Tidigare forskning har konstaterat att illamående och kräkningar är undermåligt dokumenterade i journalerna. Dokumentation medvetandegör problem, utvärderar effekt av insatt åtgärd, utvecklar patientvården samt är betydelsefull i forskningssyfte.Syfte: Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka dokumentation av PONV i patientjournalen samt samstämmigheten mellan intensivvårdssjuksköterskans dokumentation och patientens erfarenhet av PONV.Metod: Mixed methods med deskriptiv kvantitativ design användes i denna tvärsnittstudie. Data inhämtades från patientjournalen och jämfördes med självrapporterad data från patienter.Resultat: Resultatet visade att dokumentation om PONV, oavsett om deltagarna erfor PONV eller inte, saknades i 55 % av alla patientjournaler.

Today all buildings contain some form of home automation. It might be heating controlled by athermostat or motion detectors controlling outdoor lighting.This paper,The Intelligent House, deals with the planning of a house in Kiruna, in the north ofSweden and further immerses itself in home automation or intelligent control in single-familyhomes. The house has been entirely planned, from layout to structural design and plumbing.The purpose of the paper has been to investigate the possibilities in home automation in singlefamilyhomes and to choose a suitable home automation system for the house being planned.The system has been designed and the costs and energy savings have been calculated.The system chosen for the house is called KNX and is the largest system for home automation inSweden. It is used to control heating, ventilation, lighting and alarm systems in the house. Is hasbeen found that KNX is very expensive and that the amount of energy, possible to save in thehouse, using the system, is relatively small.
