Patienten med demens behöver vårdas av personal med erforderlig utbildning. Omvårdnaden av dess patienter är i högsta grad lika viktig som den medicinska vården. I syfte att belysa omvårdnad som förebygger och åtgärdar oro och agitation hos patienter med demenssjukdom användes en systematisk litteraturstudie. Intresseområdet definierades och en fråga ställdes till litteraturen relaterad till syftet, kriterier för avgränsning av artiklar, fastställdes, sökningar genomfördes i databaser och genom manuell sökning i tidskrifter. Relevanta artiklar granskades utifrån kvalitet och bevisvärde.

SAMMANFATTNINGSyfte: Syftet med detta arbete var att undersöka sjuksköterskors uppfattning om omvårdnadsdokumentation och dess påverkan på omvårdnadsarbetet.Metod: Kvalitativ intervjustudie med innehållsanalys enligt Lundman och Hällgren Graneheim (2008). Bekvämlighetsurval med fem sjuksköterskor från olika avdelningar på ett Universitetssjukhus i Mellansverige.Resultat: Sjuksköterskor i denna studie uppfattade att dokumentationen tar tid, det är mycket som ska dokumenteras och att kvalitén varierade. De uppfattade också att information kunde gå förlorad på grund av att många skrev på flera olika ställen. Dokumentationen upplevdes ibland som inkonsekvent eftersom sjuksköterskorna inte dokumenterade exakt lika. De belyste också att systemet var rörigt och ologiskt.

Dagkirurgi verksamheten ökar och det pågår en debatt om vilken anestesiform som är mest lämpad för denna verksamhet. Snabb återhämtning, god kvalitet, kostnadseffektivitet och få biverkningar är målen för att få patienten att kunna gå hem samma dag. En kvantitativ studie med en enkät framkonstruerad för studiens syfte utfördes. Syftet med studien var att undersöka vad om avgör om en patient skrivs ut tidigt eller sent vid dagkirurgi med övningsmetod intravenös anestesi Target Controlled Infusion TCI eller Total Intraveös Anestesi TIVA. 20 stycken patienter på en dagkirurgisk avdelning observerades postoperativt av ansvarig sjuksköterska, som fyllde i frågorna i enkäten.

Background: Approximately one in three Swedish people will receive a cancer diagnosis. Cancer primarily affects the elderly but also young people suffer. Young people are in a period of life that could put a strain of the ordinary when they are faced with choices and new challenges. The basic sense of security in everyday life is not so obvious and many suffer from, for example, stress and the feeling of being inadequate in relation to the requirements. It is relevant that the nurses can put themselves into what it is like to be young and afflicted with cancer, with the pressures of life itself and what the disease represents.

The purpose of this literature study was to describe techniques for monitoring general anesthesia and standing chemical restraint in the horse. A number of various techniques and devices related to e.g. blood pressure measurement, blood gas analysis and pulse oximetry are defined, and finally their clinical relevance and reliability are discussed. The equine patient is generally far more exposed to anesthesia-related risks than other smaller species. Complications such as hypotension and hypercapnia are commonly seen during general anesthesia. Thus, close monitoring is essentially performed by the veterinary nurse, whom is responsible for monitoring the anesthetized patient.

The aim of this study was to review scientific articles to evaluate which nursing treatment are in use to ease problems such as dysphagia, mucositis and xerostomia and its efficiency. The method was a literature review in which the scientific articles where found in the database PubMed. A total of sixteen articles where included, these articles where analyzed based on their quality and contents. The result showed that electrical stimulation and rehabilitation was used against dysphagia, they both had a doubtful effect. Mouth washes was commonly used to reduce mucositis; triclosan mouthwash, benzydamine mouthwash, sacralfate mouth wash, povidone-iodine and salt-sodium mouthwash showed effect.

Användandet av musik som intervention för att bota sjukdom sträcker sig långt tillbaka i tiden.Syftet med denna litteraturstudie var att beskriva hur musiken påverkar patienten och vilkenmöjlighet sjuksköterskan har att tillgodose patientens behov genom att använda musik somintervention. Denna uppsats är genomförd som en litteraturstudie inom ämnet omvårdnad ochbaseras på tio stycken vetenskapliga artiklar med kvantitativ ansats som har publicerats undersenaste fem åren. Ett genomgående resultat av denna litteraturstudie visar att musikinterventionkan minska oro/nervositet samt smärta och därigenom lindra lidandet. Musiken kan exempelvisstärka patientens förmåga att hantera stress och skapa lugn och ro, förbättra kognitiv förmåga, geenergi och egen kraft och känsla av välbefinnande. Genom att använda musikintervention somomvårdnadsåtgärd kan sjuksköterskan skapa en harmonisk, stimulerande och trivsammare miljö.Musiken kan skapa igenkänning, delaktighet, avleda uppmärksamhet, förmedla strategi förstresshantering och uppmuntra patienten att ta ansvar för sin egen situation.

In relation to the paradigm shift that took place between the marketing mix and relationship marketing, and the emergence of information technology in the 90:s, the Customer Relationship Management (CRM) has become a frequently used concept in marketing. Most definitions and approaches have been generated from previous studies, but the concept is still criticized for the number of failed implementation attempts. Along a discussion of the area has an elaborate theoretical foundation remained as the foundation for the study development and utilized in all the sections of the study. The study, with help from Gartner's eight building blocks of CRM, focus on how Swedish medium and large companies work with CRM, and if this is an indicator of the number of failed implementation attempts. The survey consists of two approaches, qualitative and quantitative, to provide both depth and generalizability of the study.
