UPPLEVELSER OCH ERFARENHETER AV GRUPPTRÄNING I TEAMREHABILITERING FÖR PERSONER MED REUMATISK SJUKDOM : En kvalitativ intervjustudie ur ett socialkognitivt perspektiv
Bakgrund: Evidens styrker att teamrehabilitering är en lämplig rehabiliteringsform för patienter med reumatiska sjukdomar. Gruppträning har i tidigare studier visat goda resultat för personer med reumatisk sjukdom. Dock är forskning om den subjektiva upplevelsen av gruppträningen bristfällig.Syfte: Syftet med studien är att ur ett socialkognitivt perspektiv undersöka vilka upplevelser och erfarenheter deltagare med reumatisk sjukdom fått av den gruppträning som ingår i teamrehabiliteringen.Metod: Studien har en kvalitativ design med induktiv ansats. Semistrukturerade intervjuer utfördes. Fem deltagare inkluderades och det insamlade materialet analyserades genom en kvalitativ innehållsanalys.Resultat: Det framkom att deltagarna hade en positiv uppfattning om teamrehabiliteringen och att de tog med sig många erfarenheter därifrån.

The controversy surrounding the Swedish methadone assisted rehabilitation program over time: a literature study.
The purpose of this study was to examine the controversy surrounding the Swedish methadone assisted rehabilitation program over time. Which course has the Swedish methadone assisted rehabilitation program, and the controversy surrounding it, taken since the start? Which arguments have been for and which have been against a methadone assisted rehabilitation program in Sweden, and what are these arguments based on? We chose to write this thesis as a literature study to get a broad and in depth picture of the development of the program in Sweden. In our analysis we used social constructionism and a medical aspect on substance abuse as theories.It is clear that it has been, and still are, differences in opinions when it comes to the effects of the program. As early as in the 1980's the methadone assisted rehabilitation program was scientifically proved effective and approved by the Swedish Board of Health and Social Affairs.
Triage - hälsoekonomi : resursallokering och kostnadsberäkning för olika proriteringsnivåer inom akutsjukvård
When a person arrives at the emergency ward at the Uppsala University Hospital with his or her symptoms he or she explains the problems and then a priority process starts. The staff evaluate at which emergency level the patient is located in a model called Triage. The Triage model helps to decide the priority need and is based upon templates which point out in which of the 5 categories a patient is to be placed, to eliminate any future risk regarding his or her health. A lower triage level means lower priority but implies better health when the evaluation takes place. To obtain optimal effect of the Triage model the evaluation of symptoms must be reproducible so that patients with the same symptoms are placed at the same triage level regardless of whom among the staff conducts the evaluation.
The purpose of the study was to see if the resources are allocated based on priority level of the patients.
Frukost och korttidskognition ur ett ungdomsperspektiv
Sahlgrenska Academyat University of GothenburgDepartment of Internal Medicine and Clinical NutritionAbstractTitle: Breakfast and cognition from a youth perspectiveAuthor: Linn Kruse and Anneli HulldinSupervisor: Anna WinkvistExaminer: Frode SlindeProgramme: Dietician study programme, 180/240 ECTSType of paper: Examination paper, 15 hpDate: May 26, 2014Background: Breakfast as an influencing factor on cognition and is often on the table for discussion in society. A lot of research has been done about how omitting breakfast affects adolescents and their short time cognition. Cognition is complex as a concept and is measured in different ways and the existing research in the area often compares different types of breakfasts instead of the difference between eating and omitting breakfast.Objective: To evaluate the scientific evidence for an association between adolescents? breakfast eating and short time effects on cognition in adolescents.Search strategy: To find relevant articles a systematic literature search was made in the databases PubMed, Scopus and Cochrane. Search terms that were used were: children, young adults, adolescents, cognition, and breakfastSelection criteria: Ages 12-20 years, measures cognition, RCT, studies comparing breakfast eating with omitting breakfast, human studies, language English or Swedish, no sick adolescents or adolescents with diagnosis.Data collection and analysis: Two original articles met the inclusion criteria and were reviewed by the SBU audit template for RCT studies.
En livsviktig utveckling : en reviewstudie om hjärt- lungräddning (HLR)
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.
Vetenskaplig publicering i gungning
Scholarly publishing has since the introduction of electronically distributed periodicals seen a time of change, mainly in the STM-business (Science Technology and Medicine). The roles of the three main participants in the publication process; researcher, publisher and library are developing into new directions. Researchers themselves are taking a more active part in the discussion, with the boycott list from the Public Library of Science organization as an illustrating example. Reforms are being launched partly as an economical and efficiency issue, partly as an increasing desire from researchers to maintain the control of scientific end result. This Master s thesis examines how the partly conflicting goals of the participants affect the conditions for scholarly publication in an electronic environment.
Fenomenet Poppe, mellan scen och skratt : En studie av Nils Poppes komiska skådespeleri utifrån en fenomenologisk utgångspunkt
Scholarly research on comical popular theatre is rare in the Swedish context even though the genre has attracted large audiences throughout the 20th century. Nils Poppe is one of the greatest Swedish actors in the comical genre and he is famous for his playful acting style. With my Master?s dissertation I aim to shed some light on both the genre and this great actor. Another aim of this Master?s dissertation is to gain understanding of what causes the audience?s laughter experiencing Nils Poppe?s comical acting.
Viltanpassad röjning längs skogsbilvägar som en foderskapande åtgärd för älgen
The moose is a keystone species in the boreal forest ecosystem, but the dense Swedish population do cause some serious problems. From a forestry perspective, their browsing on young Scot pine (Pinus sylvestris) causes extensive losses of revenue. Adjusting the cleaning along roadsides of low trafficked forest roads can favour the production of plant species preferred by the moose. This is thought to redirect the moose´s browsing to the roadsides and thereby decrease the damages on commercial forest.The aim of this study has been to present a first evaluation of the vegetation in roadsides, one year after wildlife-adapted roadside clearing has been undertaken. In the wildlifeadapted clearing operation, the roadside was widened by removal of some trees in the forest edge whereupon a complementary clearing with a conventional chain flail was conducted.
Utvärdering av en arbetsmetod för analys av katastrofmedicinsk beredskap
Samhällets utveckling i kombination med förändringar inom hälso- och sjukvården ökar risken att drabbas av en allvarlig händelse. Hälso- och sjukvården måste därför anpassas för att kunna hantera situationer med ett stort skadeutfall, i samma utsträckning som en oväntad minskning av tillgänglig kapacitet, till exempel vårdplatsbrist. Genom att hitta svagheter i verksamheten så ökar möjligheterna att åtgärda dessa och därmed förmågan att kunna upprätthålla de ordinarie målen för vård och behandling av patienter vid en allvarlig händelse. Syftet med denna studie var att utveckla och testa en arbetsmetod för att systematiskt kunna analysera och utvärdera katastrofmedicinsk beredskap, samt identifiera, orsaksbestämma, åtgärdsanalysera och mäta förmågan att hantera de för Landstinget i Östergötland (LiÖ) väsentliga områdena av katastrofmedicinskt beredskap. För detta ändamål utvecklades en arbetsmetod genom att kombinera en av Katastrofmedicinskt Centrum skapad strukturmall med den metod som Patientsäkerhetsenheten inom LiÖ använder sig av vid riskanalyser.
Kundanpassning av ett rehabiliteringsverktyg
To be able to move around without having to think about each movement is for most people amatter of course. Todays society contributes to a life at high speed where the sparetime is oftenspend doing somekind of sport, even extreme sports which earlier only a few people wheredoing. This leads to not only good health effects but also to more injuries. One of the mostcommon injuries is the knee injury.Capio Artro Clinic is a clinic specialized in sports medicine and particulary patients with injuriesin knee, shoulder, foot, hip or elbow. They perform a great part of all the crucial ligamentsurgeries in Sweden and has therefor also a lot of patients in need for rehabilitation of the knee.During the rehabilitation the load of the injuried knee is increased in steps.
Internal Quality Audits as an Improvement Tool
A large proportion of businesses around the world is today ISO 9001 certified and is consequently conducting internal audits on a regular basis. It has however not been possible to conclude that internal audits always add value to the organisation, despite the large utilisation of this tool. Some authors, e.g. Alic & Rusjan (2010) and Wealleans (2000), mean that there are possibilities that internal audits may be used as a value-adding improvement tool. This has led to the emergence of this master?s thesis.The purpose of the case study was therefore formulated to examine how internal quality audits can be made more effective and used as an improvement tool.
Metodik för fastställande av bärförmåga på befintliga betongkonstruktioner
Many buildings are now nearing the end of their service life. This applies to both the older houses from the 40's and 50's to the million project houses that did not prove to be as sustainable in the long run. Often there is a desire to extend the service lifetime, but to do that you need to make detailed inspections. The Folkets hus in Gävle is one of those buildings that is in need of renovation and to fulfill the new requirements that must be met in today's buildings. It is desired to make the buildings rentable space more attractive and to extend the building with two more floors.
Gemensamma upplevelser av gemensamma faktorer? - Om klienters och terapeuters upplevelser av gemensamma faktorer i terapi
Syftet med studien var att undersöka hur vissa gemensamma faktorer upplevs i en terapi samt hur de förhåller sig till varandra och upplevelsen av utfallet. Följande faktorer ingick i undersökningen: den terapeutiska alliansen, terapeutens kompetens, förväntningar på påfrestning, förväntningar på utfall inför terapin och klientens problematik. En frågeställning inför studien var även huruvida klienters och terapeuters upplevelser av terapin överensstämmer med varandra. Till grund för studien ligger skattningar gjorda av studentterapeuter och deras klienter vid mottagningen för psykoterapi, Institutionen för psykologi, Lunds Universitet. Tjugofyra studentterapeuter och tjugo klienter deltog i studien, av dessa hade i femton av fallen både terapeut och klient svarat från samma terapi.Studien fann att det generellt finns en samvariation mellan de gemensamma faktorerna och till utfallet.
Äldre kvinnliga undersköterskors upplevelser av betydelse för bibehållen arbetsförmåga
Bakgrund: Kvinnor har högre sjukfrånvaro än män och inom undersköterskeyrket, som är kvinnodominerat, märks detta tydligare. Det finns därmed anledning att uppmärksamma och kartlägga vad som upplevs främja kvinnors arbetsnärvaro och arbetsförmåga i detta yrke. Syfte: Syftet med studien var att utforska äldre kvinnliga undersköterskors upplevelser av betydelse för bibehållen arbetsförmåga inom kommunal äldreomsorg. Metod: Studien genomfördes som en beskrivande kvalitativ intervjustudie med kvalitativ manifest innehålls-analys. Sex friska undersköterskor mellan 55-58 år i kommunal äldreomsorg valdes genom ändamålsenligt urval till semistrukturerade individuella djupintervjuer.
