The starting point for this master thesis was the product of the company "Humlegården", which allows its tenants in office buildings to follow their electricity consumption in real time, through their Smartphone's. The idea that resulted from that application is to investigate if it is possible to direct the tenants in office buildings to reduce their energy consumptions, but also to be satisfied with the indoor environment. This work addresses the factors which are the main energy consumers in office buildings. It addresses legal requirements and standards which are important to follow in order to achieve good thermal comfort in buildings.

Introduktion: Efter en förvärvad hjärnskada kan det inte tas för givet att kroppen upplevs som självklar i vardagslivet. Många har både fysiska och kognitiva funktionsnedsättningar.Syfte: Studiens syfte var att få en fördjupad förståelse för hur personer med förvärvad hjärnskada upplever sin kropp och fysisk aktivitet i det dagliga livet.Metod: Intervjuer genomfördes med 15 strategiskt utvalda personer som hade utretts för förvärvad hjärnskada. De intervjuades vid ett tillfälle 1-5 år efter debuten. Personerna var i yrkesverksam ålder och hade lättare motorisk och/eller lätt/måttlig kognitiv, emotionell eller personlighetsmässig funktionsnedsättning. Intervjuerna transkriberades och analyserades med the Empirical Phenomenological Psychological Method (EPP-metoden).Resultat: Ett övergripande tema och sex huvudteman identifierades.

The purpose of this Bachelor?s thesis is twofold.

Bakgrund: För att platsa på arbetsmarknaden måste man framförallt vara flexibel, effektiv, stresstålig m.m. Kroppen reagerar på orimliga arbetskrav med onormal utmattning, värk, sömnstörningar, nedsatt koncentrations- och arbetsförmåga. Detta leder till att ett stort antal människor är sjukskrivna eller behöver rehabilitering för att komma tillbaka i arbetslivet. Fysisk aktivitet anses vara en av lösningar för att förebygga ohälsan på arbetsplatsen, minska korttidssjukskrivningar och sjukvårdskostnaderna, samt öka produktiviteten på arbetsplatsen.Syfte: Studien syftade till att undersöka om det finns ett samband mellan graden av fysisk aktivitet och upplevd arbetsförmåga hos sysselsatta individer, samt identifiera andra möjliga faktorer vilka kan påverka arbetsförmågan.Metod: Enkäter delades ut till 200 respondenter. Totalt analyserades 127 enkäter.

Syfte: Att beskriva hur olika former av fysisk aktivitet kunde påverka patienter med sjukdomen KOL och vilka faktorer som inverkade på dessa patienters möjligheter att vara fysiskt aktiva, samt att beskriva hur sjuksköterskan genom patientutbildning kunde hjälpa patienter till ökad fysisk aktivitet. Metod: Studien har genomförts i form av en systematisk litteraturstudie. Till resultatet har använts 16 kvantitativa och en kvalitativ artikel. Resultat: Resultatet visade att träning både i grupp och individuellt förbättrade livskvalitet, fysisk förmåga och andnöd. Träning motverkade också kakexi och minskade risken för depression.

How accessible is the city? Is there more factors than merely the strictly physical that affect how accessible the city is perceived? These questions are the starting point of this study. The greatest emphasis, in this study, is placed on the perceived parameters that affect us humans when we move in our cities. Experiences and internal images can change our behaviour and prevent free movement in the city. The result from this study shows that a city can not be seen as fully accessible unless both the physical and the perceived accessibility are fulfilled.

There seems to be a consensus in the world that the climate is changing, bringing unpredictable and severe consequences for both humans and nature. The feld of social work is known for helping misfortunate individuals and groups, and is said to deal with people in their environments. Yet there seems to be a lack of giving these environments meaning as also something natural. This thesis has the purpose of exploring the connection between social work and the physical environment made by research literature, using the methodology of literature review. The questions asked is in which ways the physical environment can be connected to human welfare; if so, what implications are there for the feld of social work, and fnally how can the discussion be understood using a typology over environmental sustainability presented by Andrew Dobson.

BakgrundKardiovaskulära sjukdomar bidrar till utbredd dödlighet och orsakar stora kostnader för samhället. Den fysiska aktiviteten har god effekt på människokroppen samt i preventivt och behandlande syfte avseende kardiovaskulära sjukdomar. Sjuksköterskan kan nyttja fysisk aktivitet som en del i en behandlingsprocess genom att motivera, utbilda och vägleda patienten till förbättrad egenvårdsförmåga och en ökad mängd utförd fysisk aktivitet.SyfteSyftet med denna studie var att undersöka om sjuksköterskan med hjälp av motiverande samtal och patientutbildning kan hjälpa patienter med eller i riskzonen för kardiovaskulär sjukdom att utföra mer fysisk aktivitet.MetodMetoden var en litteraturöversikt. Vetenskapliga artiklar söktes i databaserna Cinahl och PubMed. Efter kvalitetsgranskning valdes 15 artiklar ut som sedan analyserades.
