    Transsexuella personers upplevelser av identitet och förkroppsligande: En litteraturstudie utifrån teorin om livsvärlden och den levda kroppen2011Independent thesis Basic level (degree of Bachelor), 10 credits / 15 HE creditsStudent thesis
    Abstract [sv]

    Sammanfattning/abstract

    Bakgrund: En transsexuell person upplever sig tillhöra det motsatta könet och vill oftast korrigera sin kropp genom hormonbehandling och kirurgi så att den stämmer överens med det kön som personen identifierar sig med. Enligt den vårdvetenskapliga livsvärldsteorin är en människas kropp inte bara säte för hennes upplevelser utan också för hennes identitet. Genom kroppens sinnen skapar man en bild av sig själv och sin omvärld. Detta medför att om kroppen förändras, förändras även identiteten och tillgången till världen. Kunskapen om transsexuella personer hos personal inom hälso- och sjukvården är mycket bristfällig. Transsexuella personer utsätts inte sällan för diskriminering, intolerans och utanförskap.

    Syfte: Syftet med vår uppsats är att belysa transsexuella personers upplevelser av identitet och förkroppsligande.

    Metod: En litteraturstudie baserad på åtta vetenskapliga kvalitativa artiklar utfördes. Innehållsanalysen av datan gjordes enligt Granheim och Lundman.

    Resultat: Fyra kategorier framkom ur analysprocessen, dessa är: Den kroppsliga transitionen, som behandlar de transsexuella personernas upplevelser av kroppens förändring i relation till en könsbytesprocess. Inre och yttre identitet, som handlar om upplevelser av överensstämmelse mellan den kropp man fötts i och den inre identiteten. Familjerelationer som behandlar olika positiva och negativa aspekter av familj och vänners reaktioner på den transexuella familjemedlemmen. Den sista kategorin Att vara transsexuell i samhället och det offentliga rummet handlar om hur transsexuella personer upplever det bemötande de får och hur samhället ser på dem.

    Diskussion: Det som diskuteras i resultatdiskussionen är betydelsen av att se på kroppen som ”levd” för att förstå den kroppsliga transitionen, inkongruensen som uppstår mellan den inre känslan av könsidentitet och det yttre biologiska könet och att vara transsexuell i ett heteronormativt vårdsammanhang och samhälle. Detta diskuteras utifrån livsvärldsteorin och teorin om den levda kroppen och lyfts ytterligare genom begreppet Othering. Även etiska förhållningssätt diskuteras i samband med frågan om vården och samhällets heteronormativitet.

    Nyckelord: Transsexualitet, identitet, förkroppsligande, livsvärld, narrativ

    Keywords: Transsexual, identity, embodiment, lifeworld, narrative analysis

    Symposium Abstract #1: How do we understand time and change?: Five approaches to longitudinal qualitative research in nursing2016In: Abstracts, Oral Presentations for Qualitative Methods Conference, May 2016: Symposium: Longitudinal Qualitative Analysis—How Can It Be Done?, 2016, p. 4-4Conference paper (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    Longitudinal qualitative research can give us new insights in social processes and experiences over time. In recent years, there has been a growing interest in conducting longitudinal qualitative research. However, the definition of what constitutes a longitudinal data presentation is unclear, the methodological literature scarce, and the variation of procedures great. Therefore, we undertook a review of longitudinal qualitative articles within the nursing field to identify and describe various types of qualitative longitudinal approaches. In this presentation, the five identified types of longitudinal qualitative approaches will be presented. In total, a large part of the papers described as having a longitudinal design in fact only performed a longitudinal data collection and did not integrate ideas of time or change in their analysis or results. This practice will be problematized and a definition for longitudinal qualitative research will be proposed. Three fruitful approaches to analyzing longitudinal qualitative data were identified: pool-, phase-, and pattern-oriented approaches. These practices focus upon different aspects of time, change, process, and context, thus presenting different kinds of results. A discussion of the pros and cons of these three practices will be held so researchers can make a more informed decision when choosing which approach they will take when analyzing longitudinal material.

    Symposium Abstract #2: Longitudinal Qualitative Analysis: A Practical Guide to a Pattern-Oriented Analysis Approach2016In: Abstracts, Oral Presentations for Qualitative Methods Conference, May 2016: Symposium: Longitudinal Qualitative Analysis—How Can It Be Done?, 2016, p. 4-4Conference paper (Refereed)
    Abstract [en]

    Despite the fact that longitudinal qualitative research has attained more attention over the last couple of years, there is little literature about the procedures of doing qualitative longitudinal analysis. This presentation will focus upon procedures of conducting a pattern-oriented longitudinal analysis. A pattern-oriented analysis focuses upon how individuals (or phenomena) move through a process/time in identifiable patterns. While other longitudinal analysis approaches might emphasize a main process, a pattern-oriented approach accounts for the individual variance in the context of time and change. We developed the pattern-oriented analysis approach after conducting two independent qualitative longitudinal studies concerning learning and enacting self-management in the context of chronic conditions. Examples from these studies will be discussed during the presentation. Both analyses were performed in several steps where the following key features included: “identifying the process,” “summarized description,” and “using matrixes.” The key features of the analysis procedure will be presented as well as pitfalls and possible solutions related to the approach.

    Bedömning av karaktärsstruktur utifrån ISTDP jämfört med patientens självskattning av psykiska besvär2016Independent thesis Advanced level (professional degree), 10 credits / 15 HE creditsStudent thesis
    Abstract [en]

    Introduction: In ISTDP have psychodynamic diagnostics developed and is continuously used in the treatment. The diagnostics divides patients into different character structures. Frederickson (2013) makes a classification into these four categories low resistance, moderate resistance, high resistance and fragile. This study examines how patients assessed character structure correlates with the patient's self-assessment of their mental problems.

    Questions: Does therapist's assessment correlate, concerning the nature of the structures low resistance, moderate resistance, high resistance and fragile, with the patient's self-rated mental health problems with the evaluation form CORE-OM.

    Methods: 31 patients at three psychiatric clinics have completed the self-assessment form CORE-OM. Then they were interviewed by the psychologists to assess the character of the structure. The estimated structure was compared with the outcomes of the CORE-OM. The statistical analyzes were conducted with Spearman's rho value. Kruskal - Wallis rank test. Selected level of significance <0:05. Follow-up pairwise mail / hoc test (Man-Whitney U test with Bonferoni corrected p value).

    Results: The estimated character structure correlates with the patient's self-assessment of psychological disorders as measured by the CORE-OM. The differences are significant between character structures moderate resistance and fragile regard both the CORE-OM total and domain scores. Fragile character structure stands out significantly from the rest of the domain risk with higher degree of risk reported. Character Structure moderate resistance stands out significantly with reported lower degree of difficulty in subcategories close relationships and socially with the rest.

    Discussion: The study's results demonstrate that the assessment of the character structure based ISTDP is a reliable diagnostic method. The results support the long tradition of theory in the psychodynamic tradition of the link between the nature of the defense and the level of mental illness.

    Den osynliga vården: Att som anhörig vårda en närstående med demenssjukdom2015Independent thesis Basic level (degree of Bachelor), 10 credits / 15 HE creditsStudent thesis
    Abstract [en]

    Background: Dementia is the fourth most common endemic disease in Sweden and the number of people diagnosed with dementia is estimated to increase. Dementia includes diseases that affect the brain with symptoms on memory function, mood and communication skills. Several people with dementia is cared for at home by family members. Being an informal caregiver is a large responsibility and affects the whole family.

    Aim: To describe relative’s experiences of caring for a family member with dementia.

    Method: A literature review based on the analysis of ten scientific articles with qualitative design.

    Results: The results showed both positive and negative experiences. Some relatives expressed the feeling of becoming stronger and more resilient as a result of caring for their loved one but there where feelings of anger and frustration as well. The results showed that the relatives where in need of social and formal support but often had a hard time asking for help due to the feeling of being a burden for others and the society. Many experienced that their family member’s identity changed with the disease, which caused a change in the relationship as well. Some expressed role changes within the family and the lack of social and emotional closeness, while others expressed a feeling of becoming closer to each other.

    Discussions: It became clear that there was a complexity in relative’s attitude to social and formal support and nurses in contact with informal caregivers should be aware of this. Knowledge about informal caregiver’s perceived burden and what they perceive as their strength is an important key part for nurses in their work with dementia patients and their relatives. Nurses need to be aware of the occurrence of feelings of anger and frustration in relatives to be able to spot these and make sure the patient welfare is not compromised. Due to differences in men and women’s experiences it could be useful for the nurse to have a gender aspect in their meeting and caring for informal caregivers. The results were discussed from the perspective of Dorothea Orems self-care theory.

    Att leva med diabetes typ 2 - en livslång utmaning: En litteraturöversikt2013Independent thesis Basic level (degree of Bachelor), 10 credits / 15 HE creditsStudent thesis
    Abstract [en]

    Background: Type 2 diabetes is a chronic disease that vigorously increases worldwide. The disease can affect the entire everyday life which usually results in major lifestyle change. The treatment consists largely of self care which the patient itself has great responsibility for. The nurses have an important role in supporting, guiding and teaching the patients. Since every patient is unique the nurse would benefit from an increased knowledge about the patients experiences of what promotes and prevents self care in type 2 diabetes.

     

    Aim: The aim was, from a patient perspective, describe the experience of what promotes and prevents a self care in type 2 diabetes.

     

    Methods: A literature review based on nine scientific articles gathered from the databases CINAHL plus with full text, PubMed and Medline. The articles were analyzed and common denominators were identified and themes created.

     

    Results: The patients promoting and preventing experiences were presented in two main themes with associated subthemes. To live with type 2 diabetes enlightes the patients experiences of personal perception, integration, driving force and interact with the surroundings. To meet healthcare illustrated the patients experiences of the caregivers supporting and informative role.

     

    Discussions: This study's results are discussed, developed and strengthened with other scientific studies, Dorothea E. Orem´s theory of self care, this study´s background and the author´s own reflections. It is revealed that no patient is the other alike and they should be treated as the unique individuals they are to enable the self care to be integrated in their life.

    ”Jag behövs på flera ställen samtidigt” Sjuksköterskors upplevelser av etisk stress vid vård av patienter i livets slutskede på en geriatrisk vårdavdelning: En kvalitativ studie2014Independent thesis Advanced level (degree of Master (One Year)), 10 credits / 15 HE creditsStudent thesis
    Abstract [en]

    Background: Ethical stress implies stress related to ethical challenges. In geriatric care there are also patients in their end of life, requiring palliative care. Palliative care is a term characterized by a comprehensive view of the human being. Geriatric nurse’s encounter ethical challenges where they need to take in to consideration both this comprehensive view alongside other factors and tasks, all demanding their presence and attention. This could ultimately lead to ethical stress.

    Aim: The aim was to describe nurses' experiences with ethical stress in care for patients in palliative care in a geriatric ward.

    Methods: A qualitative approach was used. Data were collected through individual interviews with nine nurses working in a geriatric ward. The interviews were then analyzed based on a qualitative content analysis.

    Results: Four categories were formed which describes the experience of ethical stress. These categories are: feelings of inadequacy and failure, feelings of powerlessness and frustration and lack of knowledge and experience and a lack of consensus between health professionals and relatives.

    Discussions: The result concurs with previous research about ethical stress. Good communication improves the cooperation between different personnel categories, which leads to better quality of care as well as care in general. The conclusion is, further discussions about the nurse’s restricted room for action, the need to further improve the ability to understand their responsibilities including the meaning and experience of palliative care.

    Ett sår som förändrat mig: En litteraturöversikt om patienters upplevelser av att leva med ett svårläkt sår.2015Independent thesis Basic level (degree of Bachelor), 10 credits / 15 HE creditsStudent thesis
    Abstract [en]

    Background: Chronic wounds are an increasing problem in society because we live longer, and the problem is more common when we get older. The criteria of a chronic wound are that it has not healed within six weeks. There are several underlying reasons for this type of wounds; malignancy and venous insufficiency are two examples. A nurse should have evidence based knowledge to be able to provide good care for patients suffering from this type of wounds.

    Aim: The aim of the study was to describe the patients’ experience of living with malignant wounds or venous leg ulcers.

    Method: A literature study has been carried out using Friberg’s method. Ten scientific articles used in the literature study were qualitative. The databases that were used in data collection were Academic Search Complete, Cinahl Complete and PubMed.

    Results: The results are summarized into four main themes: Perception of symptoms, A changed identity, Social isolation and Live with a chronic wound. The study showed that the wounds had a negative impact on the patients’ lives and caused them an altered body image. The symptoms were experienced as bothersome and caused anxiety, fear and shame. That led to social isolation. Participants used a variety of coping strategies to manage their situation to manage with their daily life.

    Discussion: The results were analyzed on the basis of Jocalyn Lawler’s somology theory that describes how a patient may experience a nursing situation and how the nurse can promote a caring encounter when seeing the whole patient.

    Patientens upplevelse av tvångsåtgärder inom psykiatrisk omvårdnad2012Independent thesis Basic level (degree of Bachelor), 10 credits / 15 HE creditsStudent thesis
    Abstract [sv]

    Bakgrund: De flesta patienter som vårdas i Sverige gör det på frivillig basis, men en liten del av dessa vårdas under tvång. Dessa patienter återfinns i alla hälso- sjukvårdens verksamheter, men är kraftigt överrepresenterade i psykiatrisk omvårdnad, ofta med diagnoserna bipolärsjukdom och i psykotiska tillstånd.

    Syfte: Att beskriva patienternas upplevelse av tvångsåtgärder i psykiatrisk omvårdnad.

    Metod: Författarna har gjort en litteraturöversikt innehållande nio vetenskapliga artiklar, som har tolkas, bearbetats, analyseras och använd i resultatet. Under sammanställningen fann författarna elva olika inriktningar i upplevelsen av tvångsvårds om kunde underkategoriseras de tre komponenterna i KASAM. Dessa var Begriplighet; Förståelse, förlorad självkänsla, Hanterbarhet; en nödvändig handling, maktmissbruk, rädsla. Meningsfullhet; acceptans, en onödig överreaktion, ett avslutat kapitel och bra erfarenheter.

    Teoretisk referensram: Under arbetet har författarna utgått ifrån Antonovskys teori om KASAM och dess tre huvudkomponenter.

    Resultat: I resultatet fann författarna att patienternas upplevelser av tvångsåtgärder till stor del var beroende av patientens KASAM. Kommunikationen mellan vårdare och patient samt rutiner i organisationen hade i flertalet fall negativ effekt på patientens upplevelse. Patienter med högt KASAM hade trotts detta förmåga att se positiva effekter av tvångsvården, detta till skillnad från de med sänkt KASAM som ville lägga upplevelsen bakom sig.

    Diskussion: Relationen mellan de upplevelser som identifierats utifrån den teoretiska referensramen KASAM diskuteras. Betydelsen av känslor, upplevelser, förhållande mellan olika teman som risker och resurser.

    Abstract [en]

    Background: A multicultural society can be a challenge for. Trust is crucial for building a well functioning relationship between a patient and a caretaker.

    Aim: The aim of this study was to describe nurses' experiences with promoting trust in immigrant patients with psychosis.

    Methods: Five nurses were interviewed with the help of semi-structured interviews. The participants work in psychiatric care units in Stockholm. A qualitative design was used for this study.

    Results: The results are described in four categories and two subcategories that are raised in the study: the importance of communication for creating trust in psychiatric care, with the subcategory interpreted conversation; the importance of body language for trust; cultural differences regarding mental illnesses, with the subcategory cultural differences in describing illnesses; and the signification of relatives in creating at trustful meeting. The results show that language difficulties is a barrier for communication to promote trust in psychiatric patients who are immigrants and suggests that empathy and responsiveness are the foundations for promoting trust.

    Discussions: The results suggests that non-verbal communication becomes important when language is not enough. The study also describes deficiencies in knowledge, education and approach in the meetings with mentally ill immigrant patients and the need for transcultural training in health care.

    Sjuksköterskans bedömning av smärta2013Independent thesis Basic level (degree of Bachelor), 10 credits / 15 HE creditsStudent thesis
    Abstract [sv]

    Bakgrund: Sjuksköterskan har en central roll i vården av patienter   med smärta och ansvarar för skattning, dokumentation och behandling.   Förekomsten av smärta är ett vanligt problem inom vården.

     

    Syfte: Att beskriva hur sjuksköterskan bedömer smärta   hos patienter.

     

    Metod: Litteraturöversikt baserad på tio vetenskapliga artiklar.

     

    Resultat: Sammanställningen av artiklarna resulterade i fyra teman, sjuksköterskans användning av bedömningsinstrument vid bedömning av smärta,   sjuksköterskan och patientens verbala kommunikation vid bedömning   av smärta, sjuksköterskans observation av patientens och dennes   vitalparametrar vid bedömning av smärta och sjuksköterskan bedömer smärta   genom att ta hjälp från tidigare erfarenhet av liknande situationer.

     

    Diskussion: En icke fullgod smärtbedömning kan orsaka ett lidande för patienten och   det är därmed viktigt att sjuksköterskan låter patienten stå i fokus vid smärtbedömningen.

    Patienters upplevelser av information för att stötta egenvård vid diabetes typ 2 i Sverige: En litteraturöversikt2016Independent thesis Basic level (degree of Bachelor), 10 credits / 15 HE creditsStudent thesis
    Abstract [en]

    Background: Type 2 diabetes is a disease that is increasing worldwide and it is associated with living habits. Treatment of type 2 diabetes may or may partially be medical, but a large part of the treatment consists of lifestyle changes and self care. To change living habits can be difficult and requires both knowledge and involvement of the patient in order to achieve good quality of life. The nurse has an important role in order to support the patient in the subjective experience of living with a chronic disease.

    Aim: The aim was to describe about the patients’ experiences of information to support self-care in diabetes type 2 in Sweden.

    Method: This literature review is based on ten scientific articles identified through searches in the database Cinahl Complete. The articles were analysed according to Friberg’s method.

    Results: Patients' experiences of information to support self-management of type 2 diabetes compiled into two main themes: “Patients 'view of type 2 diabetes," with the subthemes: "Misunderstanding" and "Lifestyle changes”. And the second main theme: "Patients' needs for information" with the subtheme: "Need for support".

    Discussion: The results of the literature review are discussed in a discussion of results and method where the method's advantages and disadvantages are discussed. The discussion is related to Orem’s self-care theory and linked to the consensus concept of human. The theory emphasizes care system that can be helpful to understand the patients' need for support for self-care. This can be used as a tool for nurses in the meeting with patients to support their selfcare.

    Patienters upplevelse av att vårdas i isolering: en litteraturöversikt2014Independent thesis Basic level (degree of Bachelor), 10 credits / 15 HE creditsStudent thesis
    Abstract [en]

    Background: Isolation care may be necessary when a patient is carrying infection or is being inflicted with disease that causes deficit immune system. Being isolated means that the patient is in a confined space and may stay only there. Even in ancient times, people discovered the importance of isolating people carrying an infection from the rest of society. According to the Infectious Diseases Act, patients should be isolated in order to reduce the spread of infection both from the patient to the surroundings as well as the opposite. Isolation care can be psychologically stressful for some patients. They feel alone and abandoned, which eventually leads to suffering for patients. The increased prevalence of multidrug-resistant bacteria has set high standards in health care because it is challenging to care for patients isolated to reduce the spread. Aim: The aim was to illustrate patients’ experience of being nursed in isolation. Methods: a literature review with qualitative approach based on ten health science articles. The articles were analyzed using Friberg (2012) study analysis. Results: The literature review revealed four themes; difference experience of being isolated in an alien environment and needs of communication and information, feelings of alienation, the need for the presence and proximity of kin and staff. The results showed that patients experienced isolation care both negative and positive, depending on whether patients had previous experience of isolation care and the information they received from staff. Common in all patients was that isolation care contributed to a feeling of loneliness. The results showed that patients lacked staff attendance and touch which had great significance for the relief of the negative feelings. Discussion: The discussion highlights the importance of the patients socializing with other people, patient participation, and the importance of information and communication. With the nurse's awareness of patients' experience of isolation care he/she can help the patient and provide good care.

    Livskvalitet hos personer med övervikt eller fetma som har genomgått bariatriska operationer: En litteraturöversikt2015Independent thesis Basic level (degree of Bachelor), 10 credits / 15 HE creditsStudent thesis
    Abstract [en]

    Background: Obesity is one of the greatest public health problems in the world. Obesity is a product of multiple genetic, socio-cultural, socio-economic and environmental factors and leads to physical, mental and social illness. This has been shown to have a negative impact on these individuals' quality of life since they often face bias and experience limitations in their daily life. As a consequence of this epidemic, bariatric surgeries have become a common and effective treatment alternative. Aim: To describe the quality of life and how it changes over time in overweight and obese patients treated with bariatric surgery. Method: A literature review based on ten scientific studies, one qualitative study and nine quantitative studies. These studies were obtained from the databases Cinahl Complete, PubMed, ProQuest Nursing & Allied Health Source. The studies were reviewed, summarized, analyzed and compiled in tables that contained similarities and differences. Results: The outcomes have been divided into three themes; Different ways of measuring quality of life, factors influencing changes in quality of life and changes across time. Shortterm outcomes show significant improvements in all domains of quality of life after the surgery due to massive weight loss. However, the long-term outcomes in this review show that weight loss in some cases stops and that the participants may even gain weight, which negatively affect the changes of the psychosocial quality of life. The outcomes show improvements in comparison with the participants' preoperative values, but they do not achieve the standard values of the general population. Discussions: This review’s outcomes are discussed on the basis of the concept of health in the nursing meta-paradigm in relation to the concept of quality of life. In conclusion, an important gain with these surgeries is that, thanks to a massive weight loss, have greater comorbidities improved or resolved completely, the psychosocial quality of life has improved due to the fact that patients experience fewer restrictions in their social life. This means that these surgeries resulted in improvements in all physical, psychological and social domains of quality of life. However in order to maintain these positive effects, considerable lifestyle changes and a continued committed post-operative work are required from the patients and the health care providers.

    En pågående inre kamp: En litteraturöversikt om upplevelsen av egenvård vid diabetes typ 22013Independent thesis Basic level (degree of Bachelor), 10 credits / 15 HE creditsStudent thesis
    Abstract [en]

    Background: Type 2 diabetes is a chronic disease that is increasing worldwide. The treatment is based on lifestyle-related measures that often mean a change in diet and exercise habits. Self-management in chronic illness is described as a process that is influenced by various factors. Nurses have a key role in supporting the person in this process based on each individual's needs and experiences. In order to provide adequate support, it is important to get a better understanding of the experience of self-management in type 2 diabetes.

    Aim: The aim was to describe the experience of self-management among people with type 2 diabetes.

    Methods: A literature review based on ten scientific articles. All articles were qualitative and found in the databases CINAHL and PubMed. The articles were analyzed and the similarities were highlighted and created new themes.

    Results: The overall theme representing the result is the experience of an inner struggle. The theme describes how self-management is experienced as a constant struggle between the disease demands and what is valuable in life. The sub-theme, the experience of integrating self-management in daily life, affects the self-management process. The remaining sub-themes describe the barriers to and facilitators of integrating self-management in daily life.

    Discussions: The authors discuss the difficulty of integrating new habits in life and what influences the process. The discussion includes autonomy, view of the future and the need to gain control. The discussion also relates to Meleis' Transition Theory.

    Icke-verbal kommunikation i vården: mellan vårdpersonal och patient2011Independent thesis Basic level (degree of Bachelor), 10 credits / 15 HE creditsStudent thesis
    Abstract [sv]

    Bakgrund: Det finns två olika typer av kommunikation; verbal kommunikation och icke-verbal kommunikation. Den icke verbala-kommunikationen rör allt som inte har med ord att göra exempelvis kroppsspråk, beröring och ögonkontakt. Studier visar en brist på icke-verbal kommunikation i akuta vårdsituationer samt att patienter önskar mer icke-verbal kommunikation från vårdpersonalen. Det är även viktigt att vårdpersonal ser patienter som unika individer.

    Syfte: Syftet meddenna studie är att beskriva hur icke-verbal kommunikation mellan vårdpersonal och patient uttrycks i vården.

    Metod: Detta examensarbete är baserat på en litteraturstudie där relevant litteratur för syftet sökts i diverse databaser. Tio stycken artiklar valdes ut som alla berörde den icke-verbala kommunikationen mellan vårdpersonal och patient.

    Resultat: Tre teman kunde identifieras; Rädsla och osäkerhet hos vårdpersonal, Vårdpersonalens personliga förutsättningar och Beröring – en balansgång mellan genuinitet och förtryck. Studien visar att det finns en oro och rädsla hos vårdpersonal för att göra fel och att missförstånd ska uppstå genom den icke-verbala kommunikationen. För att kunna bygga en vårdrelationmåste vårdpersonalen se patienten som en unik individ samt ha kunskap om icke-verbal kommunikation. Även vårdpersonalens personlighet spelar en roll i när den icke-verbala kommunikationen används.

    Diskussion: Enligt omvårdnadsteoretikern Joyce Travelbee genomgår vårdpersonalen och patienten flera faser för att kunna skapa en människa-till-människa relation. Det är därför viktigt att identiteter får framträda både hos vårdpersonalen och patienten. Att använda sig av icke-verbal kommunikation skapar även arbetstillfredsställelse både kort- och långsiktigt hos vårdpersonalen.

    Sjuksköterskans upplevelse av att vårda i hemmet2012Independent thesis Advanced level (degree of Master (One Year)), 10 credits / 15 HE creditsStudent thesis
    Abstract [en]

    Background:

    Many countries are facing a changing demographic where the number of elderly people will increase. Parallel to this development there will be a rising demand for home-based care where more elderly people want to be cared for in their own home. Home-based care is often described as the best kind of caring for many elderly people. Earlier research has shown that nurses have both negative and positive experiences when it comes to home-based care.

    Aim:

    The aim of this study is to describe the nurses’ experiences of home-based care.

    Methods:

     Interviews were performed with eight registered nurses who had experience of caring for people at their homes. The interviews were analyzed with qualitative content analysis inspered by Greneheim and Lundman (2004).

    Results:

    The result showed that the nurses who participated in the study stated that they strive to do their utmost for the patients although they sometimes can be prevented from doing that. Tre categories with ten sub-categories were generated from the interviews. The categories describe nurses’ experiences of caring for patients of their homes: Nursing at home, To be professional and Teamwork.

    Discussions:

    Based on the study the nursing context and the nurses’ approach are described as important factors in the meeting with the patient. Nursing context and the nurses’ approach are important because they invite to participation and support the patients’ autonomy. This results in that the space is given great importance where the nurse experiences a double role: As a professional and as a guest in the patients’ own home. This results in that the nurse experiences the feeling of freedom and the feeling of inadequacy.

    Livskvalitet hos personer med cancersjukdom inom palliativ vård2012Independent thesis Basic level (degree of Bachelor), 10 credits / 15 HE creditsStudent thesis
    Abstract [en]

    Abstract

    Background: Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and accounted for 7.6 million deaths, about 13% of all deaths, in 2008. Several factors can affect patients' quality of life such as physical and psychological symptoms, relationship to people around and the environment. In palliative care professionals need to have good knowledge in order to improve patient quality of life and to give them as good a life as possible in the final stages of life.

    Aim: The purpose of this overview study is to describe the experiences of quality of life in patients with incurable cancer.

    Method: We conducted an overview study that was based on ten scientific articles. All articles are qualitative studies, from the year 1995 - 2011, and are from Sweden, Finland, UK, Canada and the USA. Qualitative analysis was used to group the various themes and subthemes for overview study purpose. As a theoretical framework served Katie Erikson’s theory of caring, suffering, and health.

    Results: Four themes with a total of eleven subthemes were distinguished; the importance of relationships for the perceived quality of life, experiences that affect quality of life positively, experiences that affect quality of life negatively and impact of care environment on perceived quality of life. The first theme includes three subthemes: relationship to family and friends, higher power and personnel. The second theme includes four subthemes: to feel hope, to accept, to take responsibility and to be independent. The third theme includes two subthemes: to feel anxiety, shame and guilt, and to lose functions and roles. In the final theme, there are two subthemes: to being cared for at home and to be cared for in health care.

    Discussion: The method was discussed including the selection of keywords, databases, and how we came up with relevant articles on the result including manual search. The results were discussed on how patients' experiences affect their quality of life from the point of view of Katie Erikson's theories of caring, suffering and health. The fact that patients experience high or low quality of life depends on various factors connected to how patients themselves experience their health and the reactions from people around them.

    Upplevelser av att leva med schizofreni2011Independent thesis Basic level (degree of Bachelor), 10 credits / 15 HE creditsStudent thesis
    Abstract [sv]

    Bakgrund: Schizofreni är en allvarlig psykisk sjukdom kännetecknad av svikt i kognitiva och sociala förmågor. Det råder otillräckliga kunskaper i bemötandet av personer med schizofreni. Deras subjektiva upplevelser blir oftast åsidosatta fastän de spelar en viktig roll i vården och personers liv. En bättre förståelse för personers subjektiva dimensionen kan bidra till ett bättre bemötande och minska lidande för personer med schizofreni.

    Syfte: Syftet för denna studie är att undersöka subjektiva upplevelser hos personer med schizofreni.

    Metod: Nio kvalitativa artiklar som hittades i databaserna PsycINFO och CINAHL bearbetades med metasyntes, gemensamma teman kunde identifieras.

    Resultat: Personer med schizofreni upplever en komplex blandning av upplevelser såsom tillbakadragande, ensamhet, relationsproblem, hopplöshet, kaos och förvirring som effekter av sjukdomen. Trygghet och gemenskap kan bidra till en positiv utveckling av hälsoprocesserna.

    Diskussion: Livsvärlden ligger till grund för hur personer med schizofreni upplever sin sjukdom och livssituation. Upplevelser av negativa symtom hos personer med schizofreni kräver mer forskning. Bemötandet av personer med schizofreni kan genom fortsatt forskning och utbildning förbättras.

    Abstract [en]

    Background: Patients with borderline personality disorder represent a large group in healthcare who are struggling with painful emotions in life. Caring should be based on strengthening health processes by focusing on the patients, but research made by the patient's perspective has shown that this population rather felt that their health processes was counteracted, than promoted. The patients felt that the nurses displayed a negative attitude towards them. Attitudes are defined as a system of values, emotions and actions towards others.

     

    Aim: the purpose of this study was to highlight the attitudes and experiences of nurses towards caring for people with borderline personality disorder

     

    Methods: A study on the literature based on nine scientific papers was performed. The articles have been analyzed, systematically coded and compiled into a new unit.

     

    Results: This study shows that nurses have an overall negative attitude towards patients with borderline personality disorder. Three main categories emerged, which was lack of knowledge, difficult patients and experiences influence. The nurses expressed the lack of knowledge as a feeling of not being competent enough to provide the right care and because of the fact that they had little faith in the care options that existed. Difficult patients was the biggest theme which showed that patients were seen as strong, dangerous ruthless forces that evokes powerlessness among nurses. Something that was seen as consistent throughout the study was that the patients were seen as dishonest and manipulative. The third main theme

    ”experiences influence” showed that experiences affects and touches the nurse that then contributes to the selection of treatment strategies.

     

    Discussions: It appears that there is a gap between nurses' attitudes and the needs of patients resulting in health suffering. This is discussed by Katie Erikson's theory of care suffering from nursing science theory of health and care, patients 'and nurses' views on health promotion.

     

    Keywords: Borderline personality disorder, experiences, attitudes, nursing, nurse, nurses.

    Att möta närstående i sorg: En litteraturöversikt om sjuksköterskans upplevelser av mötet med närstående vid plötsligt dödsfall2015Independent thesis Basic level (degree of Bachelor), 10 credits / 15 HE creditsStudent thesis
    Abstract [en]

    The grief experienced by the bereaved next of kin after a sudden death can result in both physiological and psychological outcomes. The nurse is often faced with the acute crisis that may arise. The meeting with dying patients is emotionally stressful for the nurse, who may experience a disbelief in their own capacity.

    The aim of the study was to highlight the nurse’s experiences of meeting with the next of kin after a sudden death.

    A literature review based on five studies with qualitative design and four with quantitative design. Searches were made in the databases CINAHL Complete, PubMed and Nursing & Allied Health Source. Coping strategies and the concept of health were used as theoretical frameworks.

    The results consist of five themes. The nurse’s experienced role in the meeting with next of kin which showed that the majority of the nurses experienced the meeting with the bereaved next of kin as their responsibility. Emotional stress of the meeting was for example helplessness, stress, failure and guilt. Fear of the next of kin’s possible reactions meant the nurses fear for the reaction from the next of kin. The experience of education and lack of knowledge were considered as an important foundation in the meeting with the next of kin, and The experience of lack of resources that showed a lack of resources and guidelines.

    Stress and other external factors may affect nurses’ health negatively; the use of different coping strategies can assist the nurse in affectively handling such stress. The nurse is required to be in good health to adequately meet the next of kin and their needs. Training in and knowledge of the meeting with the next of kin can contribute positively towards the nurse’s well-being.

    Man föds inte till sjuksköterska, man blir det: En litteraturstudie om manliga sjuksköterskors upplevelser av svårigheter i vårdandet - ur ett genusperspektiv2013Independent thesis Basic level (degree of Bachelor), 10 credits / 15 HE creditsStudent thesis
    Abstract [sv]

    Sjuksköterskeprofessionen har ur ett historiskt perspektiv varit ett kvinnoyrke. Kvinnor till skillnad från män tillskrivs vårdande som egenskap, då stereotypa föreställningar och attityder finns om att kvinnor är mer omsorgsfulla än män. Manliga sjuksköterskor tenderer att söka sig bort från omvårdnadsområden med nära omvårdnad till omvårdnadsområden som kräver medicinteknisk kunskap och fysisk styrka. Manliga och kvinnliga sjuksköterskor har olika förutsättningar i vårdandet som orsakas av deras könstillhörighet.

    Syftet var att belysa om och i så fall hur manliga sjuksköterskor upplever svårigheter i vårdandet relaterat till deras könstillhörighet.

    Litteraturstudie har använts som metod. Studien baseras på 11 vetenskapliga artiklar hämtade från databaserna CINAHL plus with full text och PubMed. Artiklarna bearbetades med hjälp av innehållsanalys.

    I resultatet framkom tre huvudteman med subteman. Det första huvudtemat, I Att vara man i vården, beskriver vad manliga sjuksköterskor har upplevt i sin profession som sjuksköterska. Det andra temat, II Sexualisering, beskriver manliga sjuksköterskors erfarenheter av att bli sexualiserade av patienter och samhället. Det tredje temat, III Att använda strategier i omvårdnadsarbetet, beskriver strategier manliga sjuksköterskor utvecklat för att hantera problem som uppstått i omvårdnadsarbetet.

    Resultatet diskuteras utifrån Connells teori om maskuliniteter. Diskussion förs om genusordning och hegemoniskt maskulinitetsideal inom sjuksköterskeprofessionen samt om hur könsstereotypa föreställningar och förväntningar påverkar manliga sjuksköterskor i vårdandet.
