Syftet med studien var att kartlägga de kunskaper diabetesansvariga läkare och sjuksköterskor anser sig ha om sambandet mellan typ 2 diabetes (T2D) och parodontit samt om och när information ges om parodontal sjukdom till individer med T2D. Data erhölls från ett frågeformulär bestående av kunskapsfrågor samt frågor som skulle belysa vilken medvetenhet vårdgivarna har om sambandet mellan T2D och parodontit. Målgruppen var det totala antalet diabetesansvariga läkare och sjuksköterskor som arbetar inom primärvården Region Skåne i Malmö/Trelleborgs-regionen. Totalt sändes enkäten ut till 91 personer på 32 olika vårdcentraler. Svarsfrekvensen var 76 %.

Forensic psychiatric care is a complex business. Patients who are cared for in forensic psychiatry are usually in need of care for a long time. The forensic care is a major intrusion into a person's life and the nurses and caregivers are the people who spend the most time with patients. They have a difficult mission providing a good and personalized care while patients are deprived of their liberty. Previous research demonstrates that patients experience forensic care as uncertain, insecure and punitive but that there are also glimpses of "good care".

Methods. The study had a descriptive design with qualitative approach and was carried out through semi-structured interviews with 14 nurses in home health care from two medium-sized Swedish municipalities. The material was analyzed with manifest and latent content analysis. Findings. The underlying theme that emerged in the study was: Working with palliative care in the patient´s own homes is positive but challenging. Informants describe among other things that they perceived palliative home care as meaningful and that relatives have a central role in the palliative home care since they are close to the patient around the clock. The stress that emerges from the heavy work load and the long geographic distances are described as strenuous and to affect the care in a negative way. Informants describe the home environment as challenging as it is often not adapted for care and the collaboration with the palliative team is described to be experienced as both positive and negative.

Diabetes mellitus is characterised by persistent hyperglycemia in all species. Fructosamine is a glycated protein reflecting blood glucose concentration during the preceding weeks. It has become a valuable analysis to differentiate persistent hyperglycemia from transient stress induced hyperglycemia in cats. It is also used to evaluate current therapy in diabetic patients. Although fructosamine is a well accepted analysis, it is sometimes regarded with scepticism.

In this study have I examined how treatment of girls with neuropsychological impairments is functioning? I have looked at the theories and methods of treatment on the base of the care program and how it is put into practice. In addition I have interviewed four girls who have undergone the treatment program.To gain perspective on institutional care as a social phenomenon, I have tried to give a brief historical retrospect in which particular care for women are described. I am also affecting certain gender aspects of institutional care. I have also tried to make a brief account of current research on the treatment.The study is a qualitative study in which I am apart from literature studies used participant observation in depth interviews as a method.My results indicate that a well structured treatment with CBT approach can work well to achieve lasting behavioural changes in students..

Diabetes typ 1 är idag ett växande problem bland barn och ungdomar i Sverige. Den kroniska sjukdomen innebär ett stort egenvårdsansvar. Hälso- och sjukvården har till uppgift att stödja egenvården genom att informera om hur de berörda kan förhindra allvarliga följder som kan uppkomma samt stötta de berörda till en bra livsstil som gynnar sjukdomen. Som sjuksköterska kan man möta de här barnen med diabetes typ 1 och deras föräldrar på vårdcentraler och sjukhus. Det är viktigt att sjuksköterskan är medveten om de känslor och den kunskap föräldrar innehar för att kunna stötta dem på bästa sätt.

Inledning: I skolsköterskans ansvarsområde ingår att arbeta förebyggande och hälsofrämjande med särskilt ansvar för de barn och ungdomar som har särskilt behov av stöd. Denna grupp innefattas av elever som har långvarig sjukdom, såsom diabetes typ 1, vilken kan påverka deras skolsituation. För en tonåring med diabetes kan experimenterande och risktagande leda till konsekvenser på kort och lång sikt och ge ökat sjukvårdsbehov och ökad kostnad för samhället. Tonåringens behov av stöd är stort och tidigare forskning visar att skolsköterskan kan ha en betydelsefull stödjande funktion och att skolsköterskans stöd efterfrågas. Begränsad forskning finns om skolsköterskans egna erfarenheter av stöd till tonåringar med diabetes typ 1.Syfte: Syftet med pilotstudien är att undersöka hur skolsköterskan beskriver sitt stöd till tonåringar med diabetes typ1.Metod:Kvalitativ metod med intervjuer av skolsköterskor där öppna frågor och frågeguide användes.
