Varför vänder sig individen till 112 vid upplevd ohälsa: En intervjustudie med personer som av ambulanspersonal har bedömts som ?icke akuta?

Vården ska ges på den nivå som bäst är anpassad efter patientens individuella tillstånd. Patient väljer ibland att vända sig till akutsjukvården då vårdbehovet egentligen inte är akut utan bättre kan behandlas inom primärvården. Tidigare forskning påvisar att patienter föredrar att söka sig till akutsjukvården framför primärvården då den är mer lättillgänglig samt att den uppfattas som bättre. Att det är flera personer som är inblandade i beslutet att kontakta larmcentralen samt att det är ett svårt beslut framkommer också i tidigare studier. Syftet med föreliggande studie är att beskriva patientens beslut att ringa larmcentral i stället för att ta kontakt med primärvården.

Föräldrars upplevelser av att leva med ett cancersjukt barn

Malnutrition är vanligt bland äldre personer som genomgår en höftoperation. Att inte få i sig tillräckligt med näring kan bland annat leda till förlängd återhämtning, ökad vårdtid, försämrad sårläkning, trycksår, kognitiv påverkan och förhöjd fallrisk. Nutrition är ett basalt behov och en av de viktigaste delarna i omvårdnad, därför har sjuksköterskans uppfattning om nutrition stor betydelse för hur väl patienternas behov av näring tillgodoses.Syftet var att beskriva sjuksköterskors uppfattningar om nutrition postoperativt för personer som genomgått en höftoperation. En studiespecifik enkät besvarades av 18 sjuksköterskor på två ortopedavdelningar. Enkäten innehöll påståenden med svarsalternativ på ordinalskalenivå samt kunskapsfrågor med svarsalternativen sant och falskt.

Samtalsterapi på vårdcentral ? varför, hur och för vem?

Approximately one third of all patients in primary care have a psychosocial component to their illness that requires adequate professional treatment. However, primary care is insufficiently prepared for these patients. The aim of this case-study was to evaluate a pilot project in primary care offering psychotherapy as a treatment alternative. The data collected includes 1) data from 352 referred patients regarding demographics, diagnosis, treatment duration and pre- and post health status, 2) a patient-satisfaction questionnaire and 3) interviews with six therapists and five medical doctors. The treated patients improved significantly and showed a high degree of satisfaction.

Behandling med enteral nutrition ? patientens upplevelser

Behandling med enteral nutrition erbjuds de patienter som har tugg- och sväljsvårigheter främst av neurologiska orsaker. Behandling kan därför ske med nasogastrisk eller gastrostomisk sond. Gastrostomisk sond väljs då behandlingen planeras vara ett långvarigt alternativ. Forskning visar att enteral nutrition medför ökat oberoende och lättnad över att inte behöva vara orolig över sitt näringsintag. Sociala tillfällen som inkluderar mat och dryck upplevs dock som svåra.

Följ upp målarbetet hellre än målen

Background: The Swedish population is aging [1] and malnutrition is a common problem among elderly people [2]. A method called food registration is used to monitor the patients? nutritional intake, with the purpose of reducing the risk of patients deteriorating in nutritional status during hospitalisation. However, the current method is not satisfactory and many food registration lists are incomplete. [3-6] Thus, patients do not receive a qualitative nutritional care since the assessment of the patients? nutritional status is based on incomplete documentation.Purpose: The purpose of this master thesis is to increase the quality in the nutrition monitoring process in the geriatric units B72 and B74 at Karolinska University Hospital in Huddinge, Sweden.

Djur som sociala katalysatorer : En studie om hur djur kan påverka socialisationen i behandlingsarbete

The aim of this study was to investigate whether there is a social-psychological relevance in allowing animals to be involved in therapy work. I have examined if the animals may contribute to effects on human relationships between caregivers and patients, and if the animals can contribute to helping patients to achieve better well-being. Through previous research and a quantitative interview I have received answers to the following questions: How are animals used in the treatment work? How do animals affect the relationship between caregiver-patient? In what ways do animals in treatment affect relationships between people? How do the professionals who work with animals believe that animals can affects the patient? I have interviewed people working in different kinds of treatment work using animals. The areas examined include work with animals at youth care, police, disability care, elderly care and school.

"Äta bör man, annars dör man...": En retrospektiv datajournalgranskning om nutrition på IVA

Bakgrund: Adekvat näringstillförsel är en viktig del i återhämtning och utfall förintensivvårdspatienter. Nutrition på IVA har visats sig ha en lägre prioritet jämförtmed övriga omvårdnadsåtgärder. Internationella studier har därtill belyst attintensivvårdspatienter ofta erhåller otillräcklig näringstillförsel, vilket är förknippatmed negativa följder för patienten. Syfte: Syftet med studien var att undersöka hurmycket näring intensivvårdspatienter erhåller, utifrån beräknat näringsbehov baseratpå 25 kcal/kg/dygn. Metod: En retrospektiv datajournalgranskning utfördes påpatienter som hade en vårdtid längre än sju vårddygn, oberoende av ålder, kön ochdiagnos.
