Today patients are more aware of their rights regarding their own care. They are more informed, more engaged and have more and individual requirements, which leads to increased demands for information and participation increases. The Health Act sets out the patients´ right to participation. Participation increases patient satisfaction with care, promotes healing and increases adherence to health care advise. The patient doesn´t always experience participation in their own care to the extent they wish, which suggests that nurse?s does not always succeed in getting the patient involved.

Användandet av tvångsmakt vid interventioner i sönderfallna stater är en svår uppgift. En av desvåraste delarna vid en sådan intervention är en rationell kommunikation med de olikamotparterna. Den stora utmaningen blir att lyckas förmedla både det övergripande syftet medinterventionen till lokalbefolkningen och samtidigt övertyga de stridande parterna om att ett reelltoch trovärdigt hot föreligger. I den här uppsatsen har jag undersökt om tvångsmakt är möjlig vidavväpningen i en sönderfallen stat, och hur tvångsmakten användes av UNITAF vid avväpningenav de somaliska krigsherrarna.I uppsatsen jämförde jag de avväpningsoperationer som genomfördes av de amerikanska,australiensiska och franska styrkorna vintern 1993. Den teori som jag använde som verktyg varPeter Viggo Jakobsens modell för tvångsdiplomati- idealpolitik.

Då vi har ett stort intresse för fysisk aktivitet på recept (FaR) fick vi en möjlighet att genomföra en intervention i form av viktminskningskurs för en grupp långtidssjukskrivna FaR-patienter. Syftet med arbetet var att planera, genomföra och utvärdera en viktminskningskurs för FaR-patienter. Vi valde att i en enkät utvärdera kortsiktiga mål såsom förändrad motivation, attityder, self-efficacy och vanor beträffande kost och motion hos deltagarna samt genom fysiska mätningar utvärdera långsiktiga mål som mindre midjemått och lägre BMI. Distriktsläkaren Ingrid Bertilsson vid Samverkansteamet i Västra Frölunda valde ut tio lämpliga deltagare, det vill säga motiverade personer som skulle kunna fungera i grupp, varav sex av dessa tio formade gruppen.För att få information om gruppdeltagarna och deras matvanor genomfördes personliga samtal i kombination med en kostintervju (24-h-recall). Ytterligare information som bland annat deltagarnas ålder, ursprung, ekonomi, livsstil och familjeförhållanden erhölls från läkaren och Samverkansteamet.

The Swedish legislation (Socialtjänstlagen, SoL 5 kap 1§ 6 st.) state that the social welfare committee is particularly responsible for those children whom are in need of support and help after an adoption or custody matter has been decided. "Adoption - but at what price?" SOU 2003:49 is a state report with the purpose to investigate different aspects around international adoptions, which brings up and discusses what supports there is for adoptive families in Sweden. With this background and a special attention towards adoptive children's health conditions when arriving to their new country we decided to study the subject adoption. By interviewing different professionals and volunteers that work with adoptive families in Sweden the aim with this study was to acknowledge how they look upon the support the Swedish community offers for adoptive parents and also how they consider the knowledge about adoption among those who in their line of work can meet adoptive children is.

Humidity problems and poor ventilation are factors that we associate with poor indoor airquality which are known to negatively affect health. Such problems have decreased with timein Sweden but, in other countries this is still a major problem especially during winter. InChile, this is most common in the central regions of the country, especially the Strait ofMagellan. This issue is primarily due to surface condensation happening indoors which bringsabout dampness which facilitates the growth of fungus and stains, foul odors, metal corrosionand more. This is due to a combination of poor ventilation and insufficient forms of heatingalong with buildings which have no insulation.

The activity becomes a part of the treatment. Since many today do not follow recommendations for physical activity occurs in the long term a number of public health diseases. EoP promotes health and prevents disease. AIM: The aim of this paper is toexamine whether EoP from a patient perspective perceived to be an efficient and effective method of treatment.

ABSTRACTPressure ulcers are a serious health damage that causes great suffering, prolonged hospital stays and increased health care costs. Patients undergoing surgery are at high risk of developing pressure ulcers and it is the operating theatre nurse responsibility to protect against health damage through nursing. There are little research made in the area of perioperative pressure ulcer prevention. In order to investigate perioperative pressure ulcer preventive care measures that are described in the litterature and to answer the question how the operating theater nurse can protect the patient, a pilot study of a systematic literature review was carried out. Data base searches were conducted in PubMed and Cinahl from where ten articles were selected and examined for their quality and content.
