Parametrarna skattades av patienterna med hjälp av visuell analog skala (VAS). 60 patienter tillfrågades konsekutivt till studien och 13 föll bort vilket resulterade i 47 patienter som fullföljde studien.Resultat: Gällande graden av smärta i hals, heshet, sväljsvårigheter och allmänt obehag postoperativt så skattade sammanlagt sju deltagare i grupperna med ETT och i-gel ett VAS värde över 3. Patienter som haft ETT upplevde signifikant mer heshet, och sväljsvårigheter än patienter som haft i-gel.Slutsats: Denna studie visar att patienter som får ETT eller i-gel skattar sina besvär avseende smärta i hals, heshet, sväljsvårigheter och allmänt obehag i en låg frekvens.

Undersökningen syftar till att undersöka hur åtta personer upplever sin arbetssituation som tidig bedömare av sjukpenningsärenden på Försäkringskassan. I och med att vi strävar efter en djupare förståelse för intervjupersonernas upplever av sitt arbete har vi naturligtvis använt oss av den kvalitativa metoden. Vi har belyst den tidiga bedömargruppen (TB-gruppen) ur olika sociologiska perspektiv. Å ena sidan har vi försökt att se drag av byråkrati i undersökningsgruppen med hjälp av Weber och Bauman. Å andra sidan har vi använt oss av Hage och Powers för att se eventuella drag av det post-industriella i form av flexibilitet och kreativitet hos TB-gruppen. Relationen mellan det byråkratiska och det flexibla är det genomgående temat i undersökningen. Balansen mellan dessa båda faktorer är något som TB-gruppen ställs inför varje dag.

The master's thesis investigates how the concept traditional knowledge is represented by international organizations that are influential in development work and policy making. Departing from a theoretical framework drawing on Michel Foucault, constructed aspects of knowledge and the power relations knowledge production implies are highlighted.A recent interest within library and information science and practice to document this kind of knowledge raises questions about how traditional knowledge differs from other forms of knowledge and how knowledge organizational tools can be applied. Investigations, which critically explore the concept traditional knowledge, the power relations the concept creates as well as the interests and purposes it serves, have been surprisingly absent within the discipline. The focus in this master's thesis is how traditional knowledge is conceptualized by international organizations. A discourse analytical approach reveals the power relations that are inherent in their descriptions of traditional knowledge and how they describe the relevance of the concept for their work.
