This study was carried out in the purpose of investigating the factors in the electronicmedical records system in Procapita that contributes to utility for the users and the factorsthat prevents the experience of utility for the users. The study was done within KalmarCounty and its employees within the field elderly care. The problem that we brought upwas that the elderly part of the population is growing quite rapidly whilst the gap betweensupply and demand on nurses and physiotherapists is increasing. This creates a problem ofits own in regards to how we are going to care for the elderly when there?s not enoughstaff for it.

Bakgrund: På senare tid har närståendes roll i vården fått en ökad betydelse. I Sverige insjuknar varje år 50 000 individer i cancer. När sjukdomen övergått i sen palliativ fas väljer allt fler patienter att vårdas den sista tiden av livet i hemmet. Mer ansvar läggs därigenom på närstående vilket lett till ett ökat behov av stöd åt närstående. Syfte: Syftet med litteraturstudien var att belysa närståendes upplevelse av stöd när en familjemedlem med cancer vårdas i sen palliativ fas i hemmet.

Introduction: About 160 children with Down syndrome are born each year in Sweden. They will spend their first time in life at the neonatal departments around the country. Previous research has shown that parents in these situations have experienced an unsatisfying behaviour from the caregivers and that they are not getting the care they desire. However the research that reflects the nurses? role in these situations is sparsely studied.

The aim of this literature review was primarily to describe how the nurse can involve the parents in the care for their premature baby, and secondly to describe the aim, design, method, population and quality of the reviewed studies. Searches have been made in different databases in order to find articles where the search words ?neonatal care?, ?neonatalvård?, ?premature infants? and ?nurse? were included. The literature review was based on 12 scientific articles. The results of the study were divided into six categories; The nursing staff?s relation to the parents, Support group, ?Home-early program?, Decision-making, A work in progress and A safe and efficient method.

AimThe aim of this study is to through managers in eldercares deskriptions of the systematic qualityleadingsystem examine the implementation process of this system in the eldercare in the municipality of Halmstad.  BackgroundIn this paper the background explains elderly care and social work context, leadership in change and implementation processes. The theoretical frame illustrates Vedungs implementation theory and Webers model of bureaucracy MethodTo collect empirical data for this study, a qualitative research design was used in which eleven managers within Halmstads municipality home care management stood as respondents. ResultThe respondents highlighted a variety in the use of the systematic quality management system tool. The result describes that several obstacles were experienced in the use of the systematic quality system. ConclusionBased on the descriptions the respondents gives of the implementation process of the systematic quality management of Halmstad municipality home care management, the conclusion can be drawn that the implementation process has not resulted in the employees making use of systematic quality management in practice. The systematic quality management system that will ensure the quality of the care work is thus used to a limited extent..

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 %).

Bakgrund: Smärta är ett mångfacetterat begrepp och det vanligaste symtomet inom palliativ vård. Begreppet innefattar såväl fysisk, psykisk, social som existentiell smärta. För att uppnå en individanpassad smärtlindring bör sjuksköterskan ta hänsyn till smärtans alla dimensioner genom såväl subtila tecken som direkta uppmaningar på hjälp.Syfte: Att belysa sjuksköterskors erfarenheter av att vårda patienter med smärta inom palliativ vård.Metod: En litteraturöversikt baserad på elva artiklar har använts. De vetenskapliga artiklarna är hämtade i databasen Cinahl with full text och har granskats och analyserats enligt Fribergs modell (2012).Resultat: Resultatet av analysen presenteras i fyra huvudkategorier. Den första kategorin är Rädsla ett hinder i patientens smärtlindring och belyser en rädsla hos såväl patienter som sjuksköterskor och närstående.

The number of elderly continues to increase in Sweden which puts pressure on the elderly care. Aproposed solution is to increase the use of information and communication technologies (ICT) inhome care to both streamline care and enable older people to manage on their own to a greaterextent. So far Västerås is the only municipality that has made a decision on an ICT solution, whichthey have chosen to call ?eHemtjänst? (eHomecare). The purpose of this paper was to investigatethe specific prerequisites and requirements for Gothenburg city regarding the potentialimplementation of eHemtjänst.

SammanfattningBakgrund:  Det är vanligt förekommande att personer med psykisk ohälsa vårdas på somatiska avdelningar. I studier har det framkommit att de inte blir behandlade med respekt, att de känner sig ignorerade och att de får vänta längre än andra patienter på att få vård. Omvårdnadspersonal tror också ofta att de somatiska symtomen hos patienter med psykisk ohälsa bara är fantasier, eller att dessa symtom beror på den psykiska ohälsan. Syfte: Syftet med studien var att belysa vilka faktorer som påverkar hur omvårdnadspersonalen bemöter personer med psykisk ohälsa som vårdas inom somatisk vård.Metod: Metoden bestod av en litteraturstudie baserad på åtta artiklar vilka analyserades med textanalys.Resultat: Resultatet visar att det negativa bemötandet av patienter som vårdas inom somatisk vård kan beskrivas utifrån fyra olika teman; omvårdnadspersonalens självuppfattning, patientuppfattning, känslor hos omvårdnadspersonalen samt uppfattning av vårdmiljön                     Diskussion: Huvudfynden som diskuterades med utgångpunkt i begreppet värdighet var negativa attityder, utbildning och kommunikation. Omvårdnadspersonal har ofta negativa attityder gentemot patienter med psykisk ohälsa, och kommunikationen mellan omvårdnadspersonal och patienter är ofta bristfällig. Omvårdnadspersonal som arbetar inom somatisk vård behöver mer utbildning och träning för att kunna ge personer med psykisk ohälsa ett gott bemötande.

Idag är cancer den andra vanligaste dödsorsaken i Sverige. För att kunna hjälpa patienterna som inte kommer att överleva en obotlig cancer diagnos, behövs bland annat erfarna sjuksköterskor inom palliativ vård. Den palliativa vården syftar till att lindra symtom för att patienten ska uppnå en god livskvalitet. Syftet med studien var att ur sjuksköterskans perspektiv beskriva betydelsefulla faktorer för god palliativ vård och sjuksköterskans upplevelse av dessa faktorers betydelse för den palliativa vården av vuxna personer med cancer och deras närstående. En kvalitativ litteraturstudie valdes som metod där 8 kvalitativa artiklar valdes ut och analyserades enligt Graneheim och Lundmans modell för innehållsanalys.

This project is about development of virtual drums for iPhone and iPad. The project aims to provide the company Toontrack AB with a good foundation to build drumbased apps. The focus has been on getting a quick response when playing and that user interfaces should be easy to use, intuitive and customizable. The result is impressive and both audio and graphics are of excellent quality thanks to good collaboration with Toontrack, that previously has developed drum-based software. The drum kit offers a variety of articulations and even the ability to play various dynamics, although the screens are not pressure sensitive..

- To be trapped in a roller-coaster That ?s how some of the patients are describing the situa- tion of living with heart failure. To be stuck in their home not knowing if they will have to seek care today and not knowing if they will have the energy to attend that birth- day party later this week.Each year 2-3% of the Swedish population are diagnosed with heart failure, which results in 30,000 new individu- als with the disorder. Cardiovascular disease is rapidly in- creasing in the world and before 2030, people with heart failure will increased by 100%. Our improved living condi- tions and better health have allowed us to grow older and made us more dependent on other types of care, care at home.Today the patients are only looking for changes in weight and if they have excessive water in their body.

AbstractThe purpose was to investigate whether a recovery perspective, viewed from a psychosocial approach is applied in municipal / private and county related care and rehabilitation. A recovery perspective means that the attending staff ensures that the clients are viewed as holistic individuals, where all aspects of life are considered to ensure adequate care and rehabilitation. A questionnaire was answered by staff in psychiatry, social psychiatry and addiction treatment from different areas of the municipal / private and county related sector.The results show no difference in application of a recovery perspective between these two types of organizations. However, there is a slight tendency (non-significant) to lower-rated general individual competencies for municipal / private. There is also a strong tendency (non-significant) to a general difference between the aspects of the implemented recovery perspective, where the tendency is that the respondents as a whole estimate that the organization to a greater degree creates good conditions for a recovery perspective compared to the degree they are actually working on that basis.

Numerous dogs are stressed during a stay at a veterinary clinic. Stress has an impact physically as well as mentally, and may influence animal care. There are different ways to prevent and handle animal stress. Dog Appeasing Pheromones (DAP) is sometimes used to reduce stress. The aim of this study was to investigate the potential need for stressreducers, explore the use of DAP and evaluate pheromonatherapy for dogs as a potential stressreducer within veterinary health care.
