Studier visar att många patienter som befinner sig i livets slutskede väljer att få vara hemma och avsluta sina liv bland familjen. Den vård, som dessa patienter får, oavsett var de befinner sig, kallas för palliativ vå rd. För att kunna ge en god omvårdnad i hemmet till patienter som befinner sig i livets slutskede, är det viktigt som sjuksköterska att ta reda på patientens upplevelser om vad som inger trygghet, vilket inte har upp-märksammats tillräckligt. Syftet med studien är att beskriva patientens upplevelser av vad som inger trygghet i samband med palliativ vård i det egna hemmet. Vi har gjort en litteraturstudie och utgått från Evans (2003) analysmodell.

The aim of this study was to in laboratory experiments investigate how addition of urea, ECOX and structural materials can optimize sanitization during composting of sewage sludge. Today we strive for a sustainable society and the importance of closing the nutrient loop increases. It has therefore become even more important to safely reuse plant nutrients from human excreta to agricultural land. Partly because it increases the sustainability of society as the world's supply of many nutrients are finite, partly because it promotes human health, both by reducing disease transmission and by increasing Agricultural production. An untapped resource such as sewage sludge that is rich in nutrients and humus-forming materials could replace parts of the commercial fertilizers used in Sweden today. owever, sewage sludge contains undesirable substances such as heavy metals and drug residues, and pathogenic microorganisms.

Syftet med studien var att beskriva hälsorelaterad livskvalitet, ångest/depression och vårdtillfredsställelse hos kvinnor med bröstcancer tidigt i sjukdomsförloppet samt att undersöka om det fanns ett samband mellan dessa aspekter. Vidare studerades förklarande bakgrundsfaktorer; demografiska, socioekonomiska och medicinska faktorer samt psykosocialt stöd. Denna tvärsnittsstudie genomfördes som en enkätstudie kompletterat med medicinska data från Regionalt register för bröstcancer i Uppsala/Örebroregionen. Totalt 1574 förfrågningar om deltagande gick ut, varav 69 % valde att delta i studien. Niohundratrettiotvå kvinnor ingick i de slutliga analyserna (59 %).

För att säkerställa att Piteå kommuns säkerhetspolicy och riktlinjer för säkerhetsarbetet efterföljs vill Piteå kommun undersöka det rådande säkerhetsklimatet bland de anställda inom kommunen. Syftet med examensarbetet är att undersöka hur risker uppfattas bland de anställda och huruvida de identifierade riskerna inom verksamheterna kan återkoppla till målen i kommunens handlingsplan gällande säkerhetsarbetet. Följande frågeställningar användes: Vilka riskkällor kan de anställda identifiera inom sin egen verksamhet och är dessa med i kommunens handlingsplan för förebyggande verksamhet till skydd mot olyckor? Vilken uppfattning har de anställda om policys, procedurer samt praktiskt säkerhetsarbete? Kan de anställdas uppfattning om risk och säkerhet påverka kommunens långsiktiga säkerhetsarbete? En enkätundersökning med 79 anställda inom Piteå kommun utfördes med hjälp av ett enkätinstrument utformat av nordiska forskare, Nordic Safety Climate Questionnaire (NOSACQ-50), samt tilläggsfrågor. Resultaten visar att Piteå kommun hade ett starkt säkerhetsklimat med ett NOSACQ-50 värde >3,30.

Syfte: Att undersöka sjuksköterskors uppfattningar om avvikelser i vården och om bakomliggande orsaker till dessa samt inställningar till avvikelserapportering och -hantering. Studien syftade även till att undersöka uppfattningar om hur nyanställda sjuksköterskor påverkas av rådande inställningar till detta på en vårdavdelning. Metod: Kvalitativ metod med explorativ design. Bekvämlighetsurval tillämpades och data samlades in med hjälp av semistrukturerade intervjuer med sex sjuksköterskor från en medicinsk vårdavdelning på ett svenskt universitetssjukhus. Dataanalysen genomfördes med fenomenografisk metod.

Penicillin G (benzylpenicillin) is the most commonly used antimicrobial substance used in equine medicine today. Two forms of penicillin G are available for equine use; one form is the poorly soluble penicillin G procaine and the other is the very soluble sodium salt. Although penicillin has a wide safety margin and is considered to possess a good tolerance, reactions due to side effects are sometimes encountered, which commonly is named ?penicillin-shock?. The etiology behind penicillin shock in horses is not completely understood, but the most common reason is believed to be procaine toxicity.

This thesis was rendered for the client HAGS Aneby AB that is a global leader in playground equipment. The goal of this project was to develop a seesaw that is available for children aged 5-12 years; both with and without disabilities. The project has aimed to develop a seesaw that fits everyone in the target group without looking specially adapted.Children with disabilities have difficulty using today's seesaws because they consist of only a seat and a handle on each side. It requires that the user has strong arms and legs and can sit up without support. HAGS Aneby AB would like to change this.To gain knowledge of the target group and on the different types of disabilities information was sought for on the internet including the RBU's and UNICEF's websites.

University of ÖrebroDepartment of social SciencesSociology, Contnuation Course, 61-90hp.Essay 15hp. Spring 2008Title: Who is resbonsible? A soceityscientific discussion about burnout.Author: Emilie FuchsAbstractThe purpose with this essay is to do a critical comparation between two different perspectives, burnout as an individual problem and burnout as a social problem.

How can you understand burnout in a social context?By studying and reading four books, I have presented the two different perspectives of burnout.
