Bakgrund: En utmaning för många sjuksköterskor är att bemöta patienter som efterfrågar eutanasi. När en sjuksköterska möter en patient som efterfrågar eutanasi är det till fördel om hon kan förstå varför patienten efterfrågar detta och försöka sätta sig in i patientens situation. Syfte: Syftet var att belysa eutanasi ur ett sjuksköterskeperspektiv. Metod: En allmän litteraturstudie har genomförts där 15 artiklar har använts. Artiklarna analyserades och resultatet presenterades i fem kategorier.

The environment that surrounds us affects us all. Research has shown that we feel physically and emotionally best in natural environments with greenery or water elements. Urban environments are likely to be more stressing then natural environments. How we experience specific elements, as water, of an environment is not as much investigated. There is a need of further knowledge for us to fully understand the interplay between our senses and the environment. Human beings have always been depending on water and the search for it has characterized our deeds and doings through out evolution.

Motion är viktigt för vår hälsa, men många som börjar motionera slutar inom en snar framtid (Fallon, Hausenblas, & Nigg, 2005). Det är därför viktigt att utveckla strategier som motiverar människor till träning. Visualisering är en teknik som visats ha en motivationshöjande effekt hos motionärer. Kim och Giacobbi (2009) menar dock att det finns ett behov av att skilja på innehåll, syfte och effekter inom motionsvisualiseringen och att ett nytt mätinstrument därför behövs. Syftena med studien var därför att: (1) utveckla och testa mätinstrumentet the Individual Profile of Imagery Experiences in Exercise (IPIEE; Weibull & Johnsson 2010), samt att (2) studera motionärers frivilliga och spontana visualiseringsupplevelser.

Syfte: Att undersöka sjuksköterskors upplevelser av att ge stresshantering till kvinnor med nydiagnostiserad bröstcancer.Metod: Kvalitativ explorativ intervjustudie. Åtta sjuksköterskor deltog i individuella semistrukturerade intervjuer.Resultat: Huvudresultatet utgörs av sex kategorier: stresshanteringsbehovet hos patienterna, kompetens, primära uppgiften med uppdraget, när det kändes lyckat, när det kändes svårt och positiv upplevelse. Sjuksköterskorna uppfattade att det fanns ett stort behov av stresshantering hos kvinnor med nydiagnostiserad bröstcancer. Sjuksköterskorna ansåg sig kompetenta att ge stresshanteringen på grund av deras långa vårderfarenhet, de verktyg och den kunskap de fick från utbildningen. Upplevelsen av kärnan med uppdraget var att få patienten att känna trygghet i att hantera sjukdom, behandlingar och känslor.

SammanfattningSedan introduktionen av HLR för 50 år sedan har förutsättningarna för att rädda liv förändrads avsevärt. Många av patienterna som vårdades på sjukhus var äldre och hade svåra kroniska sjukdomar och deras utsikter för en lyckad HLR utan följdkomplikationer var ofta minimala. Beslut om ej-HLR ska fattas av läkaren men bör föregås av samtal med övrig vårdpersonal. Syftet med studien var att identifiera sjuksköterskors delaktighet och upplevelser i beslutsprocessen när ej-HLR fattades. Studien utfördes som en deskriptiv litteraturstudie och 12 vetenskapliga artiklar kvalitets granskades.

This study investigates and analyzes experiences of discrimination and racism among social work students, focusing on how these issues occur between peers rather than through hierarchical dynamics, such as interactions with faculty.

The purpose of this thesis is to evaluate the present importance of liberal education in the Swedish "folkhögskola" by studying its expressions in the teaching of literature and fiction. I have interviewed teachers at four different schools about their opinions of liberal education, literature and cultural heritage, means of instruction, and influence of their students. Liberal education in this thesis is considered as a process. Starting from our own experiences we meet something strange to us and while absorbing this in our experiences we change. But its purpose also is to convey the canon of Western literature.
