SAMMANFATTNING (svenska) Introduktion: I Sverige genomförs över 400 000 operationer årligen på inneliggande patienter. Tidigare forskning visar brister på hur patienters förväntade smärta och den upplevda smärtan upplevs i samband med öppen bukkirurgi. Syfte: Syftet var att undersöka samband mellan förväntad smärta och upplevd smärta samt upplevelser av smärtlindring vid öppen bukkirurgi. Metod: En pilotstudie med kvantitativ design som syftar till att beskriva och mäta variablerna förväntad smärta och upplevd smärta samt upplevelse av given smärtlindring. I pilotstudien deltar 12 patienter från två kirurgiska avdelningar.

The aim of this study is to investigate methods of collection development, the users? influence on selection and quality aspects, focusing on non-fiction literature in Swedish public libraries. To find out opinions of collection development, I use the method comparative literature study. Antonio Gramsci?s concept hegemony forms the theoretical background, and hegemony as concept is related to a library context by using Maj Klasson?s text on the librarians? different positions of authorities.

The economic development and industrialization that has taken place in many parts of the world during the past century has brought about a huge increase in economic welfare. During this process, it has repeatedly been debated whether the gains from economic development are shared by everyone or just a few. In the field of economics, vast research has been conducted on this particular subject ever since the 1950?s. The most famous contribution might be said to be Simon Kuznets article, Growth and Income Inequality from 1955 and the ?inverted U?-hypothesis that was formulated on the basis of that article.

Syftet med detta arbete var att beskriva operationssjuksköterskors upplevelser av risken med att utsättas för blodburen smitta. Sju intervjuer ggenomfördes med operationssjuksköterskor vid två sjukhus. De analyserades medelst manifest kvalitativ innehållsanalys med ett kodningssystem baserat på ett induktivt arbetssätt. Analysen resulterade i fem kategorier: Att vara professionell, att förbereda sig mentalt, att för- och efterarbete är tidskrävande, att känna rädsla samt att det är svårt att följa rutiner. Resultatet visade att operationssjuksköterskors professionella förhållningssätt inte ändrades då patienterna bar på blodburen smitta.

The purpose of this thesis is to identify the factors that drive efficiency and effectiveness in technical development projects performed at A?F?s department of product development. In addition to identifying and analyzing these factors, the thesis also analyzes what needs to be taken in to account in order to implement a measurement system that is able to both monitor and control the identified factors.The thesis has been performed in a qualitative manner. It is based on interviews with people from several different technological companies, within different lines of business, all of which are customers to A?F?s department of product development.The results show that there are seven critical factors for project efficiency and effectiveness.

The purpose of our research was to explore the social situation of unaccompanied children. We also aimed to reveal the relation between their social situation and their identity development. The overall purpose were to describe their social situation, the value of significant others, how different languages influence their identity development and finally how their origin affects their future dreams.In order to achieve the best result in our research a qualitative method was used. This was based on qualitative interviews and was disposed around a very loose set of questions in order to let the interviewees lead the way. The analysis of the result was conducted on the basis of a set of theories and concepts in order to understand the identity development.

Bakgrund: Bröstcancer är idag en av de vanligaste cancersjukdomarna och som har ökat konstant de senaste två decennierna. Årligen insjuknar cirka 7000 kvinnor i bröstcancer vilket motsvarar ungefär 15-20 fall per dag. Lidande, välbefinnande, att ingå i en vårdrelation, kommunikation och information är begrepp som ingår i en människas livsvärld. Begreppen beskriver hur en människa upplever sin egen värld och på så sätt även hur unik den kan vara. Med livsvärld menas den värld vi lever i och ständigt är omgivna av. Syftet med studien var att belysa livsvärlden hos medelålders kvinnor med bröstcancer, från diagnos till operation.

This study is grounded in an interest in the Swedish Upper Secondary Schools? role as an educator of democratic citizens, with a specific interest in the moral and cognitive development of Upper Secondary School students. Development in these two areas is treated as results of citizenship education.The purpose of the study is to examine moral and cognitive development of students in Upper Secondary School to see if there are any structural differences to be found between the Upper Secondary School programs that are vocationally oriented and the programs that are preparing for further studies on higher levels ? since these differences have been both theoretically and empirically implied. The study is based on an enhanced version of Lawrence Kohlberg?s stages of moral development (with teachers? evaluations of students? capacity as a reference point of the students? actual level of moral development) as well as on Kieran Egan?s theory of development through the use of cognitive tools (as seen in five different ?shapes of understanding?).

This work investigates how educationalists on a multi-cultural school work with language development of bilingually children. The children in both investigated classes have a different mother tongue which means that they have Swedish as a second language, they are bilingually. It?s relevant for me to know if there is any consideration taken for these bilingually children. If yes, then in what way? The method which is used is a two weeks observation of two classes in the third grade, complemented with semi- structured interviews with the two class teachers.

Bakgrund: Hjärtats slag har länge förknippats med skillnaden mellan liv och död. År 2010 genomfördes 6 358 hjärtkirurgiska ingrepp i Sverige.
