Bakgrund: Vården på en intensivvårdsavdelning är avancerad och högteknologisk och patienterna är ofta kritiskt sjuka. Att vårdas på en intensivvårdsavdelning är påfrestande och negativa minnen kan leda till psykisk ohälsa och ökad risk för posttraumatiska stressymptom. Syfte: Att belysa patienters minnen av att ha vårdats på en intensivvårdsavdelning. Metod: Systematisk litteraturstudie där to

Patienter på intensivvårdsavdelningar vårdas ofta i flerbäddsrum och studier har visat att både patienter och deras närstående upplever brist på privatliv med både vårdpersonal, medpatienter och deras närstående runt sig. Bristen på privatliv kan upplevas problematisk och hindra kommunikationen mellan patienten och dennes närstående. Syftet med studien var att belysa närståendes upplevelser av att

Nightlife environments are high-risk environments for violence, hence security guards and nightclub entry hosts are necessary to guarantee guest safety. However, there is little research on their view of their own safety and vulnerability. This study examines exposure to work-related violence and feelings of (un)safety among security guards and entry hosts working in nightclubs in Malmö, Sweden. I

Organ segmentation on magnetic resonance (MR) images for dose planning on cancer patients is a time consuming process that can be automatized by using convolutional neural networks (CNNs). MR images vary greatly in characteristics across acquisition sites, which affects CNN segmentation performance. In this master thesis, augmentation methods were tested and implemented to increase the robustness

Authors: Emma Nilsson and Emma Silverberg Title: People in a crisis are not able to work with change Supervisor: Helene Hansen Assessor: Mikael Sandgren The aim of this study was to examine social workers reasoning on social services support to parents of children placed in compulsory care. This study was based on the Swedish social services law, 6:7 Socialtjänstlagen, that describes that parents

Forskning har visat att psykoterapi effektivt minskar interpersonella problem, men få studier har använt interpersonella problem som utfallsmått i en naturalistisk psykoterapikontext. Ett flertal studier har även undersökt om klienters svårighetsgrad av interpersonella problem kan predicera behandlingsutfall, men resultaten går isär. Syftet med föreliggande studie var att studera korrelationen melResearch has shown that psychotherapy is efficient in reducing interpersonal problems, but few studies have used interpersonal problems as a measure of outcome in a naturalistic psychotherapeutic setting. A couple of studies have examined if the level of interpersonal problems can predict psychotherapy outcome, but the results differ. The aim of this study was to investigate the correlation betwee

Interactions play a crucial role in determining how galaxies evolve in terms of their morphologies and star formation histories, since the majority of the known galaxies in the nearby Universe are found to exist in groups. Compact groups of galaxies are of particular interest as they contain a small number of galaxies in dense configurations and host repeated interactions between them, enabling us

I den här uppsatsen undersöks hur ideologi manifesteras och översätts i Liv Strömquists seriealbum Kunskapens frukt och dess franska översättning L’Origine du monde. Först analyseras källtexten för att identifiera vilka som är de viktigaste språkliga och grafiska medlen som författaren använder för att uttrycka ideologi. Dessa medel kallas för ideologiska markörer. De viktigaste ideologiska markör

Majoriteten av alla verksamheter idag lagrar personuppgifter i sina respektive informationssystem. Det är samtidigt inte ovanligt att det förekommer flera olika system, ibland upp emot tresiffrigt, för en och samma verksamhet. I april 2016 presenterades en ny dataskyddsförordning (GDPR) som kommer att träda i kraft i maj 2018, och vars syfte är att ge registrerade personer större kontroll och rätt

This thesis is a case study of the Long Live Egypt Fund (LLEF), a Government- Organized NGO (GONGO) established by the current Egyptian president in 2014 to crowdfund seven development programs through citizens’ donations. By analyzing empirical material that LLEF and related actors produced, I address the question of how the regime uses LLEF in legitimating its ongoing IMF loan-associated austeri

Syftet med denna uppsats är att undersöka hur individanpassad marknadsföring på Instagram kan påverka kunders relation och lojalitet till företag som marknadsför sig på det sociala mediet. Utifrån detta har vi formulerat följande frågeställningar: Hur påverkas kunders relationer till företag som använder sig av individanpassad marknadsföring på Instagram? Hur kan individanpassad marknadsföring på

Abstract Achilles tendon rupture and tendinopathy are frequent ailments with increasing incidence. Still today, there is no consensus regarding optimal treatment for neither condition. However, studies indicate that the rehabilitation program following an injury is more important for the functional outcome and recovery of the tendon than the initial treatment (surgical or non-surgical). For patie

In 2009, the 26 years long, brutal Sri Lankan civil war between the separatist terrorist group “Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam” (LTTE) and the Sri Lankan government came to an end. The government eradicated the LTTE, and stability was achieved through a so called “victor’s peace”, not followed by any negotiations or agreements between the warring parties. Ethnic divisions still exist in Sri Lank

This thesis seeks to answer the question of how Sweden acts as a norm entrepreneur with regards to its feminist foreign policy. Sweden’s membership within the United Nations Security Council presents an opportunity to analyse the country’s norm entrepreneurship within the UN’s most powerful organ. Constructivist norm theory combined with small state theory provides a theoretical framework for anal

Ekvationerna som beskriver flöden i fluider kallas Navier-Stokes ekvationer och trots att de formulerades på 1800-talet är kunskapen om lösningar fortfarande långt ifrån fullständing. Forskningen som rör detta går ofta framåt genom att specialfall som förenklar ekvationerna undersöks. Så är även fallet i detta arbete. Antagenden som görs är att fluidens hastighet och trycket är konstant i tiden, aA paper by Alber shows the existence of steady, inviscid incompressible flows with nonvanishing vorticity for general three-dimensional domains with smooth boundary. In this thesis we show the existence of such flows in cylindrical domains under the conditions that there is no flow through the side of the cylinder, nonzero flow into the cylinder at all points in the bottom, and nonzero flow out of

The western culture has long been on the world stage in the design, business, and cultural activities while the beautiful Chinese historical culture has been forgotten. Culture communication and acculturation improved design are fascinating fields. Combining design and business thinking is also an area that is worth to be researched. There are not many projects that have studied “cross-cultural” d

Reclaim the Streets is a study of exploitation and parametrically driven urban planning. The land I propose to be exploited are the buffer zones that since the 1950s started being reserved along major roads, and since mostly have been left untouched. The wide passages have created barriers in the city that affect pedestrians by increasing travel times and creating unsafe places. My intention is to

The threat of potentially catastrophic climate change has led to 195 countries pledging to keep global average temperature rise well below 2°C based on pre-industrial levels. Wind energy technology has developed to a point where it can make a significant contribution to meeting this objective. A number of countries have developed substantial wind energy networks in recent years which in turn has a

The purpose of this research was to do a case study of how value stream mapping (VSM) contributes to operational excellence within an ICT company. To illustrate this, a case study was conducted at Swisscom, a large Swiss telecommunications company. The motivation of the study was to contribute to research within the industry of information and communication technologies (ICT) and secondly, to high
