Förlossningen är en stor händelse i kvinnans och hennes partners liv. Barnmorskan ansvarar för den normala förlossning och skall även ha kunskap kring komplicerad förlossning. Komplicerad förlossning innefattar exempelvis vaginal instrumentell förlossning med tång eller vakuumextraktion (VE) som här benämns sugklocka. Instrumentella förlossningar i Sverige ökar och år 2011 avslutades ca 9 % av förlossningarna instrumentellt. Forskning har visat att förlossning med VE ökar risken för en traumatisk förlossningsupplevelse och skapar vårdlidande hos kvinnorna.

In recent years, the penetration of new players on the telecom market hasdrastically increased the work pace, affecting both design and production. Inthis report the technical and economical potential of a DC/DC converterplatform is investigated, in order to shorten the time of the design process.This is done in comparison with the present discrete type designs. PowerIntegrations offers a product, the DPA-Switch?, enabling this.By developing a wide DC/DC converter platform based on the DPA-Switch?,many advantages are gained. The component count is decreased by up to48 % and the yield increases by up to 2.9 % which in all yields a costreduction by up to 43 % or ?390 000 for 100 000 manufactured units.

Bakgrund: Sexualitet är väsentligt för människans identitet, relationer och upplevelser; ett komplext livsområde. Strålbehandling som ges till kvinnors bäckenregion påverkar hennes sexuella förmåga genom biverkningar till hud och slemhinnor som ger smärta och obehag samt minskad komfort i underlivet. Ofta ges inte den adekvata information som patienten har rätt till på grund av fördomar och okunskap. Syftet med litteraturstudien var att belysa hur kvinnors sexualitet påverkas av strålbehandling mot bäckenmaligniteter och kvinnornas behov av information. Metod: Uppsatsen är en litteraturöversikt utifrån 10 artiklar som söktes i databaserna CINAHL och PubMed.

The aim of this two year master thesis is to analyze how digital preservation is presented as a problem in the Swedish national strategy for the digitization and digital preservation of the Swedish cultural heritage. In order to study which assumptions about digital preservation exists within the strategy I apply the discourse oriented methodological tools presented by Carol Lee Bacchi, which focuses on discerning what problem or, rather, representation of a problem exists within a specific policy. This study is a post-structuralist discourse analysis. The main focus of the study is on what assumptions and prerequisites the dominating representation of the problem is based upon and how the representation has evolved. The main material of the study consists of public investigations conducted by the Swedish state, governmental propositions and replies as well as other public documents upon which Bacci's methodological tools are applied.Results show that digital preservation is primarily interpreted as a financial problem as the national strategy and its surrounding documents stress the need of cost-efficient solutions.

We were assigned to do this master thesis by Husqvarna AB who at the time for this thesis just had implemented a new material and production planning system called Replenishment system. Husqvarna AB wanted us to examine the effects of their new planning system to see if it was profitable or not.
