Arbetet handlar om hur man som höft och knäopererad patient känner sig bemött på en ortopedisk vårdavdelning efter att ha fått en protes inopererad. Dessa operationer kan i efterförloppet vara mycket smärtsamma och behöver i regel lång rehabilitering, vilket ställer stora krav på personalens sätt att vårda och bemöta patienter i postoperativt skede.Syftet är att beskriva hur patienter efter höft och knäprotesoperationer upplever personalens bemötande på ortopedisk vårdavdelning.En litteraturstudie är gjord utifrån kvalitativa artiklar som har bearbetats och analyserats enligt Evans metod som utgångspunkt för ett deskriptivt resultat.Resultatet presenteras utifrån tre teman; Att känna sig bemött som en unik individ: som skildrar patienters upplevelser av hur personalen tillgodoser varje enskild patients behov. Att känna sig professionellt omhändertagen: beskriver hur patienter känner när de blir väl omhändertagna under sin postoperativa tid på avdelningen. Att känna sig förbisedd: beskriver att patienter känner sig försummade och negligerade under sin postoperativa tid på vårdavdelningen. För att patienter med höft och knäproteser skall uppleva vården som positiv diskuteras vikten av att sjuksköterskan ger god information till patienten, att hon får fortlöpande utbildning och att vårdpersonalen arbetar med etiska reflektioner..

The aim of this thesis is to examine the historical use of "poison cabinets", or restricted shelves, in Swedish libraries. Drawing upon the theories of Mary Douglas and Michel Foucault, it also seeks to sketch a cultural and ideological context of the practice; with the emphasis on social or mental hygiene, and disciplinary aspects. Through qualitative interviews as well as digitalized recordings of librarians active during the first half of the 20th century, actual examples of poison cabinets are presented. A closer examination is conducted of past collections at Lund University Library, and two large public libraries situated in Växjö and Sigtuna. The essay also investigates views on library censorship, controversial literature, and other related subjects reflected in th elibrary press during the period 1916-1979.

The purpose of this essay is to examine how gender rolls influences the culture of substance abuse among women and their social situation. To demonstrate this we have concentrated our research to relate how scientists and the media describe problems of abuse among women. The method we used in our research was qualitative and we gathered information through literature, reports and articles.Our main questions are:Do the social attitude toward women and men differ and how does it affect problems of abuse among women? Do women use alcohol in a different way than men? How do social reactions and restrictions influence women? We also want to examine what position women substance abusers have in society. What similarities or differences are there between the image of women in general and women with substance abuse?The main result of the study is that we found discursive connections that show a rectification among scientists concerning substance abuse among women.

SAMMANFATTNINGIntroduktion: Utvecklingen inom somatisk slutenvård har under de senaste decennierna gått mot kortare vårdtider. En del patienter på sjukhus vårdas under betydligt längre tid än genomsnittet. Detta skulle kunna leda till fysiskt lidande för patienten, en känsla av hopplöshet på grund av ovisshet gällande sjukdomsförlopp och vårdtidens längd, saknad av familj, en längtan tillbaka till arbetslivet och övrigt socialt liv. Få studier inom medicinsk slutenvård har undersökt patienters upplevelser av att vårdas länge på sjukhus. Syfte: Syftet med studien var att beskriva patienters upplevelser av att vårdas mer är 40 dagar på sjukhus.

 Sammanfattning Syftet med studien var att värdera närståendes skattning av vårdkvaliteten på en intensivvårdsavdelning med hjälp av frågeformuläret KUPP (Kvalitet Ur Patientens Perspektiv). Antalet respondenter uppgick till 33 personer (10 män och 23 kvinnor) som valdes konsekutivt. Designen var en deskriptiv och komparativ studie med kvantitativ ansats. Den före detta intensivvårdspatienten vårdades på avdelningen 24 timmar eller mer. Resultatet visade att närstående skattade balans i vårdkvaliteten inom frågor som belyste vilken vårdutrustning som fanns tillgänglig, patientens medicinska vård, sjuksköterskors och undersköterskors engagemang, sjuksköterskors och undersköterskors empatiska och personliga förhållningssätt samt hela personalgruppens respekt i bemötandet av patienten. Bemötandet av släkt och vänner värderades också högt. Bristande vårdkvalitet skattades inom frågor som belyste information efter åtgärder, information om patientens vårdförlopp och vilken person som var ansvarig för patientens vård. Vissa intensivvårdsspecifika frågor som belyste möjligheten att få diskutera med personalen om otrygghet, mardrömmar och slem i luftvägar skattades som bristande vårdkvalitet.

The purpose of this Masters thesis is to examine the debate concerning Agnes von Krusenstjernas Fröknarna von Pahlen-novels from a ideological analytic perspective. This debate came to be called The Krusenstjerna feud Krusenstjernafejden and was most intensive in the years 1934-35 after Porten vid Johannes and Älskande par had been published. We examine 8 articles using a text analytic method. We have limited ourselves to public material that is available in Swedish press and Swedish magazines. Our ambition is, through this, to determine the articles authors political point of view and ideas of preference.

A purchase decision can be seen as a multifaceted context that raises many unanswered questions. Understanding the consumer's evaluation of alternatives is complex and should be studied at a deeper rather than wider scale. There is a problem for retailers to understand how the consumer manages a purchase decision in a retail setting with durables goods that generates a higher effort. The aim is to describe the decision rules used by the consumer and how they are expressed in this context. A better understanding of which ones they use and how they are conveyed will help retailers to create effective marketing solutions that generate positive outcomes as increased profitability and customer satisfaction.

This master?s thesis problematizes how students in two Swedish secondary schools think and speak about, and relate to, topics such as gender, class, ethnicity, religion and sex, but also how they move in, make use of, and interact within, the school space. What categorizing and positionings, if any, can be found? Students in two Swedish secondary schools, in a medium sized Swedish town, have been observed (using participant observation) and interviewed (open ended), the material was then examined with intersectional theory. A majority of the ethnic Swedish respondents position ?the religious? as ?superstitious?, ?frightening? and/or ?backwards?, also many of them equated religion with ?muslim/islam?, a greater understanding for the others religious outlook was shown by students with an ethnic background from outside Europe.

Pigs kept for meatproduction are often surgically castrated to prevent aggression and boartainted meat. Castration without analgesia and anesthesia is painful and causes a lot of stress to the pig. There are alternatives such as to surgically castrate the male pigs with analgesia and/or with anesthesia, immunocastrate or keep them as intact males. In Sweden the most common practice is to surgically castrate the pigs before they are seven days old. The impact on the pig is that the incision causes pain and stress, which may lead to changes in behaviour, reduced appetite, reduced growth and a higher risk of infections.

Utgångspunkten för examensarbetet var att med ett arkitektoniskt förslag kommentera urbaniseringens effekter för små orter på landsbygden. Första fasen i projektet bestod av en bred analys av orten Arvidsjaur. Den andra fasen bestod i att forma förslaget. Förslaget blev en innovation baserad på en sammansmältning av följande kvaliteter i Arvidsjaur:- Försvarsmaktens vinterenhet och fjälljägare- Biltestningsindustrin- Ökande naturturism- Bra serviceutbud- Exotisk natur och klimat- God infrastrukturPå grund av att fler människor numer bor i storstäder har intresset för turistresor till den orörda naturen ökat. Den starkast växande gruppen är personer som både vill ut i naturen och samtidigt ha närhet till god service och bekvämlighet.
