Patients who undergo surgery receive general anaesthesia or any form of conduction anaesthesia during the operation. For most people it is strange, unexpected and for many something completely new to be a patient and undergo surgery. Awake conduction anaesthetic patients? experiences from the intraoperative period were little studied. The purpose of this study was to examine awake conduction anaesthesia patients? experiences.

The purpose of this thesis is to explore the situation for ebooksin Swedish public libraries. The background is anincreasing lending of e-books in public libraries, with anacquisition model formed when e-books were more of anexperiment in a few libraries. The debate has escalated in therecent years and in this thesis I aim to investigate thelibraries? experience with e-books and the current pricemodel. The empirical material comes from interviews witheight head of public libraries in the Västra Götaland region.As theoretical background, I have used Michael Buckland?sfour roles of collections and price models from Lee andBoyle.My results show ambivalence with the price model.

Med vår uppsats har vi försökt undersöka vad kvinnliga konsumenter i åldern 20- 29 eftersträvar att tillgodose för värden vid konsumtion av ekologiska ? och konventionella kläder. Vi har försökt ge modekedjorna en inblick i hur de kan utveckla utformningen av ekologiska kläder, genom att studera ifall konsumenternas eftersträvade värden avseende ekologiska kläder liknar eller skiljer sig åt från värden avseende konventionella kläder. För att finna värden som kan vara väsentliga att tillgodose vid konsumtion av kläder har vi använt oss av means-end chain modellen, som applicerats på åtta kvinnliga respondenter. Detta har följts av en enkät där vi med en variant av List of Values (LOV) har studerat om det existerar en skillnad i vilka värden konsumenten vill tillfredställa vid ett köp av ett konventionellt- och ekologiskt plagg..

The emergency medical care in Sweden has been under persistent debate, due to factors such as long waiting hours, inefficient patient flow, and understaffed departments. In an effort to meet the critique and with a willingness to improve the problems, an increasing amount of emergency clinics are adopting theories and models within Lean. Positive outcomes are evident, there has been some criticism directed towards Lean. Among these is the argument that in order for Lean to be successful it needs to be used within standardized and foreseeable processes, and that it therefore only is applicable to those kind of processes found within industrial production. This prompted the question of whether Lean was a suitable strategy within emergency medical care, considering the large variation of patients and non-foreseeable processes that in fact share little resemblance to that of industrial production.

Bakgrund Sverige har omkring 350 000 diabetiker vilket motsvarar ca 4 % av befolkningen. Randomiserade studier har visat betydelsen av god glykemisk kontroll och strikt blodtryckskontroll. Det verkar som att mer är att vinna på lägre blodtryck vid diabetes än hos andra hypertonipatienter. Blodtryckkontrollen kan utövas med olika farmakologiska behandlingar, patienter med njursjukdom och ischemisk hjärtsjukdom kan t e x ordineras selektiva betablockerare. Syfte Att studera prevalens och incidens av betablockerarbehandling hos läkemedelsbehandlade diabetiker och hur försäljning skiljer sig mellan de olika landstingen i Sverige.

Test for Auditory Comprehension of Language -3 is an American picturebasedtest developed to examine children?s auditory comprehension of language.The aim of the study was to create a translation and to examine if the test wouldcontribute to the information about a child´s language comprehension received bysimilar tests that are used today. In the present study the test items were translatedinto Swedish. The translation was evaluated with 32 children in three different agegroups at a school in central Gothenburg. A linguistic examination of thetranslation and a list of the grammatical structures that are tested were made.

Ma?let med detta examensarbete har varit att studera Migrationsverkets va?ntrum vid Asylpro?vningsenheten i Flen och hur det anva?nds. Detta fo?r att identifiera rummets brister och fo?rba?ttringsmo?jligheter. Syftet har vidare varit att ta fram ett gestaltningsfo?rslag som skapar en tydligare identitet fo?r rummet och som bidrar till en starkare la?nk mellan beso?kare och myndighet.Genom metoder, sa?som observationer, platsanalys, notationer, intervjuer samt omva?rldsanalys, har en o?kad fo?rsta?else fo?r va?ntrummet skapats och det har konstaterats att det finns en brist vad ga?ller rummets igenka?nning och identitet.Med hja?lp av litteratur och resultatet fra?n metoderna har ett gestaltningsfo?rslag sedan utvecklats.

Triage, which means "to sort", determine the priority of the patients need of care. The aim of the present study was to describe nurses? perception of triage at a pediatric emergency department. A questionnaire with open- and closed-ended questions were distributed to all 25 nurses that worked at a pediatric emergency department. The answer frequency was 48 % (n=12).

Due to an increasing amount of people being put on a sick-list the issue of work health has come to receive a lot more attention. To confront the problem, different varieties of keep-fit measures have been launched in the workplace. A prime example of such a measure can be found at Centralsjukhuset Kristianstad, which this survey is investigating. The primary goal of this study is to investigate the use of the Keep-fit measures program and to identify what motivates the employees to utilize this program. Further we would like to investigate if the program, through motivation and learning, generates improvement and retention of the individuals? health.

I gained my interest for color during my years at the landscape architect program. I felt that you as a student in design courses constantly were faced with the problems of coloration. A subject that I perceived to be difficult, especially for us students that lacked the experiences from how a project on the drawing board turns out when it finally is built. As a professional landscape architect you there have a greater experience but I wondered how much awareness about color you actually have as a professional. How does one think about coloration and how can you use color as a formative tool? And how does color truly affect us humans? Does color have significance for the experience of landscape architecture? The object with this project is to illustrate color and it?s place in landscape architecture.

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.

This essay investigates the relationship between Mildred and her daughter Veda in James M. Cains novel Mildred Pierce (1941). The purpose of the investigation is to point out how the relationship is portrayed in the film from 1945, and the TV-series from 2011. To facilitate the analysis I apply adaptation theorist Thomas Leicht?s list of ten different adaptation strategies to conclude the possible effects these strategies may have had on the relationship portrait and the themes of the novel.

Bosch Rexroth Mellansel är en tillverkare utav hydrauliska drivsystem för industriella applikationer. En del av denna lösning är de så kallade Hägglunds-motorerna. Fem motorfamiljer tillverkas i olika storlek och för olika applikationer. Syftet med detta projekt var att undersöka fyra frågeställningar angående tre sammankopplade steg i produktionen av dessa motorer. Dessa stegen var tvätt, montering och provning.
