Postoperativa lungkomplikationer är ett stort problem inom sjukvården. Det ökar mortaliteten och skapar onödigt lidande för patienterna samt ökar kostnaderna för sjukvården då patienterna ligger inne längre tid. Syftet med denna studie var att genom en litteraturöversikt beskriva vilka faktorer som kan leda till ökad risk att drabbas av postoperativa lungkomplikationer, samt effekter av att använda omvårdnadsinterventioner för att förebygga dessa. Förebyggande av allmänna postoperativa komplikationer inkluderades inte i studien. Resultatet består av 22 artiklar som valdes ut genom litteratursökningar och sedan kvalitetsgranskades och analyserades med hjälp av matriser.

Purpose: To examine how a tour operator works to implement sustainability in the development of the business, as well as what significance it has to consumers in selecting a tour operator. Furthermore, the purpose is to provide recommendations on how tour operators should work to communicate their commitments.Methodology: The research strategy applied is a case study which follows an abductive approach. Qualitative and quantitative methods were applied to complement each other. A semi-structured interview with a tour operator and a consumer survey constitute the empirical foundation.Conclusion: The conclusion of the study is that consumers show a positive attitude towards CSR, but do not see it as a determinant when choosing a tour operator. Thus, CSR does not constitute a competitive advantage against competitors.

BakgrundKvinnlig könsstympning innebär att hela eller delar av könsorganen avlägsnas. I världen uppskattas 100-140 miljoner kvinnor genomgått ingreppet. Kvinnlig könsstympning är främst förekommande i de västra och östra delarna av Afrika samt i Egypten. Ingreppet är inte en religiös plikt utan har sedan 2000 år tillbaka utförts som en kulturell sed. En kartläggning av faktorer som påverkar fortsatt utövande av kvinnlig könsstympning behövs för att få svar på vilka resurser i det förebyggande arbetet som har störst påverkan i avskaffningen av kvinnlig könsstympning.

Bakgrund: Varje år insjuknar i Sverige mellan 25?30 000 personer i stroke. Det är 80 % som får ätsvårigheter. Syfte: Att sammanställa den aktuella kunskapen om strokedrabbade personers erfarenhet av ätsituationen.

Konflikter förekommer i de allra flesta relationer mellan människor och de ser olika ut beroende på typ av relation. Syftet med denna studie var att se vilka konflikt- och motivationsstrategier som förekommer i parrelationen samt om motivation och personlighetstyp påverkar val av konfliktstrategi. Genom en enkätundersökning gjord på 25 heterosexuella barnlösa par i åldern 20-40 år, framkom två dominerande konfliktstrategier, konfronterande och ge efter. Den konfronterande konfliktstrategin korrelerade negativt med personlighetsfaktorn självkänsla, vilket i synnerhet gällde män. Mäns självkänsla korrelerade också negativt med den promotiva motivationsstrategin.

We wanted to know how the subject HIV/AIDS was handled in the Indian newspaper The Hindu, which is written in English, during a period of 16 days (30 October-14 November) in 2005 compared to the corresponding period during 2007. Because we liked to study what kind of differences there were in the reporting between these two years. In addition we also wanted to learn how people living with HIV and AIDS are represented in pictures and text. To find out this was the purpose with this investigation.The study is made from the theory of stigma, semiotics and from a professional model of the normative theory. The articles about HIV/AIDS were quantitatively analyzed with help of a schedule of codes and we performed a qualitative analysis on several articles, four from 2005 and four from 2007.

Malnutrition är ett välkänt problem i den patientrelaterade vården både i Europa och i resten av världen. Trots detta är malnutrition något som fortfarande förekommer. Vad kan det bero på? Det är viktigt att man bedömer patientens nutritionsstatus rutinmässigt för att kunna förebygga malnutrition. Effekterna av malnutrition kostar samhället mycket pengar och orsakar mänskligt lidande.

Resultatet blev 14 studier varav 9 randomiserade experiment, 4 kvasiexperimentella studier och 1 metaanalys. Översikten visar på en delad bild när det kommer till signifikant effekt vid brottsminskning.
