SAMMANFATTNINGSyftet med föreliggande studie var att undersöka dialyssjuksköterskors upplevelse i mötet med en patient som vill avsluta, eller som inte är kapabel att uttrycka sig kring, sin livsuppehållande dialysbehandling. En deskriptiv intervjustudie med kvalitativ ansats utfördes på två dialysmottagningar i Mellansverige. Innehållsanalys av intervjuerna genomfördes vilket gav fem huvudkategorier; sjuksköterskors upplevelse av bristfällig kommunikation och samarbete med läkare, sjuksköterskors upplevelse av läkares svårigheter att diskutera avslutande av dialysbehandling, sjuksköterskors upplevelse av att vårda patienter som inte är kapabla att uttrycka sig kring sin dialysbehandling, sjuksköterskors upplevelse av att vårda patienter som säger, eller på något annat sätt uttrycker, att de vill avsluta sin dialysbehandling och sjuksköterskors upplevelse av stöd och samtal i vården kring patienter som vill avsluta sin dialysbehandling. Huvudresultatet visar att dialyssjuksköterskor upplever många etiska dilemman i mötet med denna patientgrupp. Mötet med en patient som säger, eller på något annat sätt uttrycker att de vill avsluta behandlingen upplevdes positivt, dock upplevdes innebörden av uttrycken ibland vara svåra att tolka.

Bakgrund: Otillräcklig information, att inte bli uppmärksammad, lyssnad på, samt att inte bli sedd som en individ med individuella behov, har visats leda till osäkerhet i interaktionen mellan vårdare och patient samt missnöje med vården. Det är en fördel för sjuksköterskan att ha självkännedom för att kunna skapa ett bekräftande möte. Bekräftelse i ?Jag-Du-mötet? anses vara grunden för allt mänskligt liv. Syfte: Syftet var att beskriva betydelsen av att bekräfta identiteten hos inneliggande patienter på sjukhus, utifrån ett patient- och sjuksköterskeperspektiv.

Swedish healthcare is in continuous need of cost savings and efficiency improvements in order to meet the increased demand for care. The theories of lean, developed from the industry, are applied more frequently on healthcare systems to increase effectiveness and reduce waiting times in patient processes. However, some processes seem to be more successful in their lean implementation than others. In this thesis, factors influencing flow efficiency in lean healthcare are examined. Through interviews with the top executive board at Capio St Göran's hospital, data is collected in order to analyze reasons for success.

Hela familjen påverkas när en familjemedlem har sjukdomen schizofreni. Det är en komplex sjukdom med många symtom som vanligtvis debuterar i 15-35 års ålder. Sjuksköterskans ansvarsområde är stort, bland annat ingår att kunna stödja och undervisa både patienten och dennes anhöriga. För att kunna uppfylla sitt ansvarsområde krävs att sjuksköterskan har förståelse för de anhörigas situation och upplevelser. Syftet med studien är att beskriva hur anhöriga till en patient med diagnosen schizofreni kan uppleva sjukdomen och dess inverkan på vardagen utifrån tidigare forskning.
