Full textIntroduction: The responsibility of the nurse is to have competence and to treat every patient with respect and empathy. Patients with substance use disorders are a group that can be viewed as a group with a large demand of care. They are exposed to stigmatization and therefor they need specialized care. The meaning of patient centered care is to strive to optimize every individual’s well-being. Nurses may increase patient’s empowerment through a motivating approach. Aim: To explore patients’ perceptions of the nurse-patient relation of patients with substance use disorder. Method: A literature review, including both qualitative and quantitative studies. Result: Three categories were identified: To see the whole person, caring encounter and stigma. Both positive and negative aspects of every category were discovered. Discussion: A patient centered approach can be understood as an emphatic, caring, committed and helpful encounter. Many patients had experiences of discrimination and stigma during care. This could partly be understood as an unbalanced power-control relationship between caregiver and patient. Conclusion: The nurses actions can increase as well as decrease patients suffering. A caring encounter is important to promote health and to optimize the results of care. There is room for development of nursing skills in care of patients with substance use disorders.

Full textBackground: The number of older patients who require and seek the emergency department is increasing every year. Most of them have multiple diseases, which means that the older patients have at least two diseases. The nurses encounter a lot of stress and frustration while working at the emergency department because there is always shortage of time but also because they might have a lack in their knowledge, certain competence skills or experience. Aim: To describe the experiences of older patients with multiple diseases to be cared at the emergency department. Method: A systematic literature study with descriptive synthesis based on 10 qualitative scientific articles. Results: The result is presented based on two themes with two subthemes, respectively. The first theme is "Positive Experiences", which includes two subthemes "Experiencing satisfaction, being seen and respected" and "Experiencing security and trust". The second theme is "Negative Experiences", which includes two subthemes "Experiencing abandonment" and "Experiencing lack of security and trust". Conclusion: Older patients with multiple diseases have a strong desire for staff presence and safety. The fact that healthcare personnel are professional and safe in their occupational role leads to older patients feeling safe, seen and respected. When healthcare personnel do not have sufficient knowledge and experience about the older patients’ health condition, older patients experience abandonment, insecurity and reduced confidence in healthcare personnel.

Full textBackground: In today's society, alcohol and drug problems are common. Alcohol and drug problems lead to negative changes in everyday life. From a societal perspective, there is the stigma of alcohol and drug problems, which leads to people that avoid seeking care. Purpose: To describe how patients with alcohol and/or drug problems experience the treatment of healthcare professionals in the healthcare sector. Method: General literature study with inductive approach. Result: The result is presented in two themes which are supportive treatment and obstructive treatment. In the result, it was found that the care staff's treatment was experienced as supportive because the care staff listened and treated patients professionally and that the care staff showed that they had good knowledge in the meeting with patients. Furthermore, it emerged in the results that patients perceived the treatment of care staff as an obstacle in the care process because the care staff treated patients insufficiently and unworthily in the form of discrimination, stigmatization and abuse of power. Conclusion: The result is presented in two themes, which are supportive treatment and obstructive treatment. The result can contribute to increased understanding among healthcare professionals who meet people with alcohol and/or drug problems, which can thus contribute to better conditions for good treatment.

Full textABSTRACT Background The design of the environment affects our experience of health and well-being. One of the nurse's responsibilities is to ensure that the care environment meets the patient's needs. The care environment can be designed by several different factors such as sound, light and nature. All with a capacity to provide a feeling of security. According to healthcare reformer F. Nightingale, the physical environment was equally important to the psychological and social environment in order to regain health and prevent disease. Aim The purpose of this literature review was to describe aspects of the care environment that promote the patient’s well-being. Method The method used was non-systematic literature review. Database searches were performed in PubMed, CINAHL, Academic Search Elite as well as manual searches. A selection of 17 scientific articles was made after careful review. The articles were of both quantitative and qualitative research methods, these have been quality checked with the help of Sophiahemmet University’s assessment data. They were analysed based on the integrated data analysis method. Results A health-promoting care environment affects the patient's well-being and autonomy while they are being cared for in hospital. The first impression when visiting a hospital is that of the physical environment. Furthermore, it turned out that single rooms led to reduced noise, better sleep and strengthened social support and personal integrity. Windows and views of nature created a feeling of peace as nature could help strengthen the patient's inner power through distraction. Natural light as well as artificial light increased the well- being and improved sleep. A welcoming care environment with a “cosiness factor” and privacy increased the feeling of homeliness, which improves the well-being of the patients and also increased the presence of relatives who constituted a great support for the patients. Conclusion Through increased knowledge on the importance of the care environment for the well- being of the patient, measures can be taken focusing on the design of public spaces in this environment. The care environment can either support or hinder the patient's recovery process and has the ability to promote the patient’s quality of life. This study provides an insight into the importance of the care environment and contributes with lessons that can be further applied in our future clinical work within the profession. Keywords: Patient satisfaction, patient acceptance of health care, patients, environment design, health facility environment.

Full textBackground: The most common route of transmission of hepatitis C is through intravenous drug abuse. Transmission can also occur through blood transfusion. There are many prejudices associated with hepatitis C. Chances are that this colors interactions with patients. It is important that healthcare professionals are aware of how their own perception of the disease may affect the encounter. The Objective was to highlight the experiences patients with hepatitis C have of the encounter in the healthcare. Method: The study was designed as a general literature review of twelve qualitative articles. Manifest content analysis was used. Results: Patients with hepatitis C had mixed experiences of receipt: welcoming, rejecting or unsafe. This led to experiences of support or discrimination. Patients experienced professional support or lack of professional support. Discrimination could be caused either by healthcare professionals or the organization. Conclusion: Because of stigma surrounding the disease patients with hepatitis C are a vulnerable group in society. The knowledge of healthcare professionals is an important part of the encounter. It requires training to provide holistic care for hepatitis C. Increased knowledge about both the disease and patient-professional relation can positively affect the encounter: the reception gets better, support increases and discrimination is reduced.

Full textBackground: At Astrid Lindgren Children´s Hospital, there is a lack of specialized nurses in the inpatient wards. This could pose a risk to patient safety. Studies show that there is a need for more preventative measures, to improve the quality of care for hospitalized pediatric patients. Objective: To investigate the strategies, used by nurses in the assessment and care of pediatric patients. Method: A descriptive, qualitative study with semistructured interviews. Eight nurses from three inpatient wards were interviewed. Qualitative, manifest content analysis were used. Results: The results are presented in two main categories Internal Strategies and External Strategies. The informants felt that their basic education had given them insufficient knowledge and training in pediatric care. They used subjective, internal strategies when assessing and providing care. External strategies, such as turning to colleagues, doctors and the children´s parents for advice were used when the internal strategies were insufficient. Seeking help and support from the Intensive Care Unit was something the informants rarely or never considered. Conclusion: Non-specialized nurses frequently meet with difficulties in managing their commitments. Our conclusion is that there is room for improvement in internal and external strategies and the need for an increased support from the Intensive Care Unit.

Nursing Programme, Malmö University: Health and Society: Department of Nursing, 2009.Blood sample taking and injections is a part of the nurses´ work. Many patients feel discomfort, especially patients with needle phobia, while taking blood samples. This is the reason why nurses have to pay attention to this group of patients.The aim of the study was to describe how patients experience healthcare related situations where injections are given or vein or capillary samples are taken.Method: We have used the descriptive phenomenological scientific method described by Giorgi. Collection of data was done by the use of in-deep interviews with three informants that have described themselves as needle phobic. Results: An important aspect of the phenomenon needle phobia deals with the significance treating patients with respect and that the nurse understands their situation. The nurse should be perceptive and adapt the care to every patient’s needs.Keywords: Anxiety, the descriptive phenomenological scientific method discomfort, needle fear, pain, perceptiveness, treatment.

Full textI Sverige begår ca 1500 personer suicid per år, och 90 % av dessa har visat tecken på psykisk sjukdom. Av de som har gjort suicidförsök kommer ungefär hälften i kontakt med vården. Psykiatrisk omvårdnad syftar till att främja hälsa och lindra lidande och det behövs många olika färdigheter i arbetet med den suicidnära patienten, för att genom den terapeutiska relationen kunna ge en empatisk, säker och professionell omvårdnad. Syftet med litteraturstudien var att beskriva vilka faktorer som var viktiga i omvårdnadsarbetet med suicidnära patienter, ur ett patientperspektiv. Metoden som användes var en litteraturstudie. Den bestod av 13 vetenskapliga artiklar, 12 kvalitativa och en både kvalitativ och kvantitativ, publicerade mellan 1999-2008, som granskats, analyserats och bearbetats enligt Polit och Becks arbetsmodell. Resultatet visade på tre huvudkategorier och åtta subkategorier. Huvudkategorin Relation bestod i subkategorierna bemötande, bekräftelse och kommunikation. Huvudkategorin Aktivitet bestod i subkategorierna avledande sysselsättning och sömn/vila. Huvudkategorin Säkerhet bestod i subkategorierna personligt övervak, fysisk miljö och visitation. Dessa kategorier visade vilka faktorer som suicidnära patienter upplevde som värdefulla för att minska deras suicidala tankar/handlingar och hur de önskade bli omhändertagna av omvårdnadspersonal.

Full textBackground: When a person suffers from cancer their entire world changes. A lack of knowledge creates a feeling of not being able to adequately grasp the situation, which is why it is important that the nurse provides decent caregiving with emphasis on entirety and communication. Purpose: The purpose of the literature study was to describe patients' experiences of the nurse's approach in relation to cancer treatment at hospital. Method: A literature review that is based on ten qualitative articles. Result: Through analysis, three main categories were found: The importance of wide knowledge by the nurse, The importance of a good nursing relationship and The importance of good caretaking that benefits the patient's well-being and their will to participate. Method of discussion: The reason, as to why there were not many articles found on the subject matter, is due to the fact that there is more research conducted from the nurse's perspective. The preunderstanding was confirmed and the authors get more insight in how important two-way communication is. Discussion of result: The patient wishes to feel involvement from the nurse and a good relationship between the two arises when good communication exists

Full textBackground: Patients with cancer of the lung have to endure a quantity of physical, psychological and social difficulties. In their exposed position they are in need of help and support to pull through the situation. With the knowledge of factors effecting lung cancer patients’ quality of life, it will be easier to give the help and support they need.
Aim: The aim of this study was to describe factors effecting lung cancer patients quality of life from the patient’s perspective.
Method: The study is based on a systematic literature review where eight articles were used and analysed with a qualitative checklist.
Result: Quality of life in lung cancer patients is influenced by physical, psychological and social factors. The physical factors are sleep-wake disturbances, fatigue, dyspnoea, and cancer stage and cell type. The psychological factors involve depression and distress. The social factors contain socioeconomic status, age and gender.

Full textCommunication, learning and social relations are three elements contained in the concept of participation. The opportunity to take part in their care may influence health care in a way that is more beneficial to the patient. The keystone in nursing is SOC. The aim of this study was to describe inpatients experience of participation by using the concept of SOC. Another aim of this study was to examine the samplings and data collection of the scientific articles used to collect data in this study. A descriptive literature review was used to answer the aim. Articles were searched systematically, compiled, examined critically and then compiled the results. Articles were searched in the databases Cinahl, PsycInfo and PubMed. 11 articles were included in the results. The result shows that to have control over their situation was considered an essential part of participation. Understandable information, to be involved in decisions about their care, dedicated nurses, mutual respect and communication between patients and nurses was important for patients to experience security and gain control over the situation. Though empathetic, motivating and attentive nurses, to be heard and wishes fulfilled and the limited amount of nurses contributed to a sense of security and control of the patients' situation. Sampling and data analysis presented in 10 of the 11 scientific articles. The conclusion was that patients experienced participation as a meaningful part of their care situation. Intelligible information was an essential component to manage their situation. If nurses could use a comprehension offense language when communicating favored the inclusion and patients became more confident.

Full textSexual harassment is a global social problem where health care provider is an exposed profession. Sexual harassment does not cause as much attention as physical violence and that is a problem. The purpose of the literature study was therefore to describe nurses’ experiences of sexual harassment from patients. A literature study based on eleven scientific articles with both qualitative and quantitative approaches was performed. Sexual harassment was considered as a taboo area and there was a silence culture about the subject. Sexual assault came primarily from male patients in the form of physical touches and sexual comments. Nurses who have been exposed to sexual harassment became more vulnerable and was experiencing discomfort and shame. Nurses also used different strategies to handle sexual harassment and to find strength of their working day. Colleagues and close associates were an important support for the nurses’ who had been exposed to sexual harassment from patients. Further research on the subject is needed to prevent and deal with sexual harassment.

Full textÖvervikt och fetma är ett växande problem och betraktas som en global epidemi. Också i Sverige har detta ökat avsevärt. Ett för stort energiintag i förhållande till förbrukning är den största orsaken, men också ärftliga faktorer kan leda till övervikt. Detta medför ofta komplikationer för den enskilde personen i form av ökade hälsorisker och sämre livskvalitet. Större kunskaper om orsaker och prevention är viktigt, samt att ha ett korrekt och professionellt bemötande är av stor vikt hos vårdpersonalen som behandlar dessa patienter. Syftet med litteraturstudien var att belysa vårdpersonals attityder till överviktiga patienter. Metoden var en litteraturstudie som var grundad på åtta vetenskapliga artiklar. Resultatet kunde indelas i två kategorier, positiva attityder och negativa attityder. Vårdpersonal som huvudsakligen arbetade med överviktiga patienter hade mer positiva attityder och ett bättre förhållningssätt gentemot de aktuella patienterna. Gruppen med negativa attityder, dominerade i resultatet, de visade fördomsfullhet och negativism och att överviktiga patienter ofta särbehandlas. Överviktiga ansågs som lata och själva skyldiga till sin övervikt. Vårdpersonalen uttryckte ofta att de helst skulle vilja slippa vårda överviktiga patienter. En ökad medvetenhet om egna attityder och större kunskap om denna sjukdom vore önskvärt för framtiden för att uppnå den bästa omvårdnaden för dessa patienter.

Full textThe purpose of this study was to visualize how arttherapists work with adults suffering from PTSD, and how differences and similarities in the approaches are expressed. The aim was also to find out more about how arttherapy in PTSD is conducted as well as what aspects the therapists themselves consider to be active parts of the treatment. The issues were: a) Do arttherapists operate differently in PTSD than with other problems? b) What elements in the therapeutic work are especially effective with PTSD, according to the arttherapists? The method consists of semi-structured interviews with six artherapists, all with experience in meeting patients with PTSD. Five interviews were made through personal meetings and one via Skype. The interviews were recorded digitally, transcribed and then processed through Thematic Analysis. The results of the survey shows that arttherapists maintain their therapeutic method regardless of the patient’s problems but that their approaches change when PTSD is known from the start of the therapy. In arttherapy with PTSD arttherapists notice several crucial factors, e.g. the created image as an important part, as well as creativity that involves embodied memories and facilitate processing. The discussion presents thoughts on the survey design, arttherapy's position as treatment in PTSD and the lack of research that makes art therapy failing to receive recognition.

Full textBackground: Isolation is a form of care to prevent the transmission of an infectious disease from one patient to another. It is also a form of care designed for patients who are sensitive to infection and therefore need to be protected from the outside world in the form of isolation care. Isolation can cause different emotions to the patient such as fear, frustration and guilt. Isolation can also bring positive emotions to the patient as being protected and allowed to be nursed in a quiet and calm environment. Aim: The aim of the study was to focus on social and psychological aspects, highlighting the patient’s experiences of being cared for in isolation care. Method: A literature study with ten reviewed scientific articles with qualitative design. The analysis is performed with a qualitative analysis design with theme identification. Findings: The isolation care led to psychosocial experiences for the patients, they experienced negative emotions such as fear, frustration, shame and loneliness during the stay in the care. The patients also experienced positive emotions related to being cared for alone in an isolation room and the silence it entailed. A number of patients pointed out how important the healthcare staff's information and communication were during the hospital stay. If the information and communication were limited, it resulted in a poorer understanding of their infectious disease and why they had to be cared for during isolation. If the information was published to a sufficient extent, the patients experienced an understanding of their disease state and the isolation care it brought about. Conclusion: Patients should be given more time by healthcare professionals while they are isolated. Healthcare professionals should also provide patients with secure information, adequate communication and work in such a way that prevents negative psychosocial experiences. Knowledge and understanding of the patients experience and management of isolation care should be the focus of the nursing work. Healthcare should promote health and prevent ill health.

Full textInformation is an important part of a nurse’s work and her pedagogic skills are put to the test. Surgery is an important event in a patient’s life and it is well known that patients often are unsatisfied with the information they receive. The objective of this essay was to retrieve deeper knowledge of what information patients want before an operation and their experiences of the information they do receive. This was done by a literature review in which scientific articles were searched for, critically examined and the results from twelve finally chosen articles were com-piled into a common result. The result of the study was that patients generally are satisfied with the amount of information they receive but they wish more informa-tion about pain and pain treatment and about how complications can be prevented.

Not knowing how patients experience responsiveness can create problems

The two patient groups had many similar symptoms and a joint nurse-led primary care clinic for these patients could have many benefits. One of the district nurse's competences is supportive conversations with the individual patient about how they cope with their situation. The aim of this study was to compare coping ability and coping strategies among patients with COPD and patients with heart failure, and to investigate possible differences of degree of anxiety, depression, impact on the function of fatigue and breathlessness based on coping ability and the use of coping strategies. The method used was quantitative and comparative cross-sectional. Patients with COPD and patients with heart failure from three county primary care clinics were included in the study and they were asked to answer a questionnaire sent to their homes. The instruments used in this study were several, including Orientation to Life Questionnaire and the Ways of Coping Questionnaire. Results degree of SOC affected patients' estimation of the different symptoms. The conclusion was also that patients with COPD used in higher levels of different coping strategies than patients with heart failure did and the higher the degree of the different coping strategies, the higher the various symptoms were estimated, with some exceptions. Conclusion, the results are interesting and should be considered in the care of these patients in joint primary care clinics through advice and support to reduce the negative impact that COPD and heart failure have on their lives.

Full textABSRACT Background: Sleep is essential to enable people to experience the health and welfare. Aim: To examine sleep routines and surrounding factors relevant for a good sleep in patients in rehabilitation clinic. Method: A quantitative descriptive cross-sectional survey was carried out by means of a questionnaire survey in two rehabilitation clinics in Stockholm. The patients (n=33) were taken out in consecutive order, on the basis that they were able to complete the questionnaire (adequate, oriented in space and time, understood the Swedish language). The questionnaire was designed based on a validated and reliable questionnaire, Karolinska Sleep Questionaire (KSQ). Result:The overall assessment of sleep based on the four indexes, sleep quality index, awakeningindex, snoringindex and sleepiness/fatigue index showed that it was 76% who believed they had poor sleep. Sleep routine significance was assessed based on the VAS scale. 63% of patients estimated sleep routine the importance of medium to very important. In this study 42 % stated that they were disturbed in their sleep because of the surrounding factors. The sound was seen as the most disruptive factor. Conclusion: A sleep history clarifies the patient's sleep routine, and facilitate a good sleep quality for the patient. Keywords: sleep routines, sleep quality, patients, rehabilitation

Full textHemodialysis treatment involves extensive changes for patients. Life is turned upside down and can only be held together with support in different forms. The patient's need for support changes with the situation and over time, why it's important that support is continuous and need-based. The aim of the study was to illuminate the experience of support in patients treated with hemodialysis. Experience of support was analyzed on the basis of how patients described something that facilitated hemodialysis and the changes the treatment involved. A general literature study was conducted where ten qualitative articles were analyzed. Data processing resulted in two categories that described perspective of support in patients undergoing hemodialysis. The main categories were Safety and Confirmation as well as subcategories To gain access to information, To be independent, To receive consolation and To be encouraged. Support measures that allowed patient's goals and needs to be center of focus instead of the patient's medical needs were judged most important. Information emerged as a recurring theme. It appeared in all categories but in different support situations. Further, support measures that promoted independence, flexibility, coherence with other, personalized knowledge and relationships stood out as essential to the patients. In order to provide personalized support, the ability to see the whole person and its nursing needs is required. More research on individualized support appears necessary for increased knowledge.

Syftet med studienvar att ur ett patient- och sjuksköterskeperspektiv belysa vilka attityder sjuksköterskan hargentemot vuxna patienter med fetma. En litteraturöversikt har använts för att sammanställatidigare forskning som berör sjuksköterskans attityder mot patienter med fetma. Studienomfattar sju vetenskapliga artiklar som resulterat i två huvudteman med tillhörandeunderteman som redovisar resultatet inom ämnet. Resultatet visar att negativa attityder motvuxna patienter med fetma förekommer bland sjuksköterskor. Förutfattade meningar finnsangående fetman och dess orsaker, patienterna ses som mindre socialt accepterade ochmindre attraktiva. Orsaken till fetma beror enligt sjuksköterskan på individens arv ochegna val. Studien pekar även på det känsliga ämnet och att sjuksköterskan känner obehag isin relation till patienten. Hennes egen kroppsuppfattning påverkar vilken inställning honhar inför mötet med patienten, detta skapar en frustration hos sjuksköterskan som försvårarrelationen mellan sjuksköterska och patient. En frustration uppstår även i förtroendet tillpatienten då sjuksköterskan är rädd att förolämpa patienten vid motivationen tillviktnedgång.
Obesity has become a major public health issue. This will increase the number of patientswho will seek medical attention due to obesity. The aim of this study was to illustrate thenurse attitudes towards adult patients with obesity from a patient- and nurse perspective. Aliterature review was used to survey earlier research on this matter. The study containedseven scientific articles that is presented in two main themes and sub themes, these definedearlier research results. The result showed that negative attitudes toward obese adultpatients do exist. Nurses tend to have preconceived opinions concerning obesity and itscauses. Patients who suffers from obesity are often seen as less attractive and are lesssocially accepted. A common conception among nurses is that obesity depends on heredityand a “weak character”. Obesity is a delicate subject which often causes discomfort in howto adress the patient. Another aspect that affects the treatment of obese patients is theindividual nurse opinion about her own body size. This complicate the relationshipbetween the nurse and her patient. The nurses are afraid to insult the patient and also feeldiscomfort to give advice in weight loss because of the patients lack of motivation.

Full textBackground: The number of patients suffering from depression is increasing in Sweden and globally. Treatment of depression mainly consists of antidepressant drugs, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and electroconvulsive therapy (ECT). Physical activity has been shown to decrease depressive symptoms. Part of the nurse's responsibility is to manage and support patients to promote health and reduce suffering. Aim: The aim of the study is to describe factors that affect physical activity for people with depression from a patient and nurse perspective. Method: This review study is based on 14 articles. Result: Two categories were created: the patients' perceived obstacles to physical activity and the role of the nurse as mentor and support in treatment. Obstacles that affected patient compliance were the intensity of exercise, lifestyle factors and various emotional barriers. Most nurses described that work with physical activity may be part of their task. However, nurses experienced a lack of time, knowledge and organizational support as an obstacle to the work with physical activity. Conclusions: Nurses need more education and organizational support to work effectively with physical activity and help patients to overcome their obstacles.

Sammanfattning
Studien syftade till att belysa hur vuxna patienter som isolerats på en infektionsavdelning upplever sin vårdtid. Den ville även utröna om patienterna från sitt perspektiv kunde ge några förslag på hur vårdprocessen skulle kunna förbättras. Fem informanter valdes ut genom bekvämlighetsurval och intervjuades utifrån en strukturerad frågeguide innehållande både faktafrågor, åsiktsfrågor och känslolägesfrågor. Den insamlade informationen bearbetades genom innehållsanalys. Denna process ledde fram till sex kategorier av vikt. Av dessa handlade tre om patienternas känslor och uppleveler – vilka var instängdhet, långtråkighet och fördelar av att vara isolerad – och tre berörde områden som informanterna ansåg kunde förbättras – bättre miljö, hjälp med tidsfördriv samt förbättrad information. Informanterna upplevde överlag att sjukvården tog väl hand om deras somatiska behov emedan det psykosociala omhändertagandet hade något större behov av förbättring. Slutsatsen blev att isolering kan ge upphov till både positiva och negativa känslor och att patienter ofta kan uppleva fluktuationer mellan dessa. Studien visade att behovet av god information inte kan anses vara tillfredsställt. Vidare önskade informanterna bättre hjälp från vårdpersonalen att hantera den tristess som uppkom under tiden som isolerad. Tristessen ökades av en ostimulerande miljö. Kvaliteten på omvårdnaden av isolerade patienter kan därmed ökas genom att öka resurserna inom dessa områden.
Abstract
The study aimed to enlighten how adult patients isolated in an infection ward experienced their stay. A further object was to explore if the patients from their point of view could suggest any improvements in the nursing process. Five informants were chosen by convenience sampling and were interviewed using a structured questioning guide containing questions about facts, opinions and emotions. The collected information was processed with content analysis. This process resulted in six categories of importance. Three of these were about the informant’s feelings and experiences – which were a feeling of being shut in, boredom and advantages of being isolated – and the other three concerned areas that the informants thought could be improved – better environment, help with recreation and improved information. The total experience of the informants was that the medical service handled their somatic needs well while improvements can be done considering the psychosocial care. The conclusion is that isolation care can bring both positive and negative feelings and that the patients often experience fluctuations between these. The study showed that the need of information is not satisfactory fulfilled. Furthermore the informants wished for better help from the hospital staff to counteract the boredom brought on by isolation. This boredom was increased by an uninspiring environment. The quality of care of isolated patients can be improved by increased resources in these areas.

Full textHuman immunodeficiency virus (HIV) leads to Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) a fatal disease. Thirty-seven million people in the world have been affected by the virus. Only in Sweden 6500 people are suffering from HIV/AIDS. Research show that nurse ́s attitudes towards patients with HIV/AIDS are affecting their care to these patients. The aim of this study was to illuminate nurse’s attitudes against patients with HIV/AIDS and factors that determined these attitudes. The study was conducted as a literature study. Thirteen articles that highlighted nurse’s attitudes to patients with HIV/AIDS were applied to the result. All the articles were analyzed and from that three themes emerged during data processing. The themes were: positive attitudes, negative attitudes and the importance of knowledge. The results showed that nurses have both positive and negative attitudes towards patients with HIV/AIDS. A crucial factor affecting nurses' attitude to patients with HIV/AIDS was their lack of knowledge. Therefore it is necessary to increase nurse’s knowledge about HIV / AIDS.

Full textBackground: Today many people live with cardiovascular disease, especially cardiac arrhythmias and / or cardiac arrest, which is one of the most common causes of global death. A pacemakers function is to stimulate the heart to return to a normal heart rate. People who live with an implantable cardiac stimulator experience fear, concerns and anxiety related to electrical disturbances and device error in everyday life. Person-centered nursing is important as it makes it easier for patients to live a normal life as possible. Purpose/aim: The aim of the literature study was to highlight the nursing needs in the form of support in patients living with the implantable cardiac defibrillator. Method: A literature study using an inductive approach and 11 articles was critically reviewed. Result: The results are divided into three themes: Information, social and professional support and Continuous follow-up. Information created greater understanding and safety for the patient. Support from nursing staff and relatives increased the ability of self-awareness and self-esteem. Continuous follow-up improved physical and psychological factors that increased the quality of life. Conclusion: The findings of the study were that information, support and continuous follow up were of great importance concerning person-centered nursing. The study reports that additional knowledge is needed in the nursing profession to be able to conduct good care and nursing.

Full textBackground: Previous research has shown the importance of information for the patients care experience and safety. Still there is clear evidence that information is lacking at emergency departments [ED]. It is therefore important to gather patient experiences on the subject. Purpose: To investigate patient experiences of information in emergency departments. Method: Descriptive design with a literature review as method where 16 scientific qualitative original articles was analyzed. Results: Five themes was created: Initial care at the ED; following waiting time; condition and treatment; understanding and ability to remember; and final care at the ED. Both positive and negative experiences emerged. Most prominently was negative experiences regarding lack of information about subjects such as waiting times, condition and treatment. Conclusion: Information is a crucial part of the care at the ED and this study highlights its importance from the patient perspective. A lot of different experiences emerged in the result that displays the relevance of the problem area. The need of further research regarding patient experiences of information is considered needed. Flaws and opportunities for improvement has also been revealed by highlighting patient experiences, which may be of use for nurses in their profession.

Full textSyftet med studien var att beskriva vad sjuksköterskor anser vara god omvårdnad av äldre patienter samt att beskriva vad som är viktigt i en god omvårdnad. I en empirisk kvalitativ studie av beskrivande karaktär intervjuades sju kvinnliga sjuksköterskor med mellan 2 och 39 års erfarenhet. Vid intervjuerna ställdes två öppna frågor och följdfrågor användes för att utveckla svaren. Intervjuerna spelades in på band och svaren analyserades genom att författaren skrev ner intervjuerna ordagrant för att sedan, genom bearbetning av textmaterialet, bilda subkategorier och kategorier. Resultatet redovisades med fem kategorier: grundläggande behov, informationssökning, rehabilitering, respekt och tid samt elva subkategorier. Informanterna ansåg att tid och individanpassad vård var viktigast när det gällde omvårdnad av äldre patienter, men att det egentligen inte fanns någon indelning utifrån ett åldersperspektiv avseende god omvårdnad. Respekt, rehabilitering och att söka information om patienternas tidigare historia var andra viktiga faktorer för innebörden av god omvårdnad.
The purpose of this study was to describe what nurses consider to be good care of elderly patients, and to describe what is important in good care. The method used was an empirical qualitative approach with a descriptive character. Seven nurses, whose experiences varied between 2 and 39 years, were interviewed. They all work at a hospital, but at three different departments. Two open questions were used for the interviews. The interviews were recorded on tape from where it was extruded to text by the author. The responses were then analyzed by being categorized into five different categories and eleven subcategories. The respondents agreed that time and personal care was the most important parts in care of elderly patients. However, the respondents also clamed that there are no differences between younger and older people with respect to good care. Respect, rehabilitation, and search for information about the patients earlier history are also very important aspects of good care.
