- Aims. To describe the nature of being a psychosocial nurse in cancer care. Background. Psychosocial nurses in cancer care are a new profession in cancer nursing in Sweden, with potential to offer unique support to patients regarding somatic and psychological needs. This new profession is hitherto unexplored. Design. A qualitative inductive interview approach was used. Methods. A strategic sample of five nurses working as psychosocial nurses in cancer care in Sweden was interviewed. A thematic stepwise analysis was performed. Results. The analysis revealed the twofold experience of being a psychosocial nurse in cancer care. The nurses felt as if they had two professions: nurse and therapist. They used skills from both professions to help the person, who had cancer and a psychosocial problem. It was stimulating to be able to combine the knowledge and practices of two professions. It was also difficult because they felt an uncertainty about what their roles and responsibilities really were. Conclusions. This new profession seems to need role descriptions and formal education so that psychosocial nurses receive respect and appreciation in their new and relatively unknown work in cancer care. Relevance to clinical practices. The adjustment to the cancer disease and treatment side effects can be difficult for the patients and their families, which has highlighted the need for psychosocial support. To meet this need the health care system has to provide such support. Nurses are available and can be successfully educated to handle psychosocial problems among cancer patients. A new profession among nurses is emerging, which the present study aimed at describing. The present findings have potential to make healthcare professionals grasp what the core of psychosocial cancer nursing is, as well as its potential and pitfalls.

Att möta barns sociala språkmiljö i förskolan : flerdimensionella perspektiv
- 2019
-
Samlingsverk (redaktörskap) (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Barn kommer till förskolan med varierande erfarenheter av språk. Förskolan har därför en betydande roll i barns tidiga språk-, läs och skrivutveckling, inte minst i ett likvärdighetsperspektiv. Förskolan behöver organiseras så att alla barn får tillgång till stimulerande språk,- skriv- och läsfrämjande lärandemiljöer. Boken handlar om hur förskolan kan skapa sådana sociala språkmiljöer.Boken bidrar med tydliga exempel från förskollärares vardagliga arbete. Den är uppbyggd utifrån tre teman med inriktning mot språk, och bidrar med en modell som visar de lärandestrategier som kännetecknar en social språkmiljö: omsorgsstrategier, kommunikativa strategier och lekstrategier. Författarna kommer både från praktiken i förskolorna och från forskarkåren och arbetar aktivt med frågor som handlar om barns språkutveckling.Boken riktar sig till förskollärarstuderande, lärarutbildare, förskollärare och andra verksamma i förskolan samt forskare inom pedagogik och didaktik. Den lämpar sig mycket väl för kollegialt lärande i förskolan och för diskussioner i arbetslag.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This article compares the situation in Denmark and Sweden regarding research and policy making around the issue of men-s violence to women and children. It does so by drawing on two comprehensive reviews of academic and policy data in those countries that were part of a broader European Union-funded project. Although the picture emerging from this comparison is complex, the overall conclusion is that in Sweden over recent years many more examples can be found of a critical, power-oriented approach than is the case in Denmark.

- Health monitoring systems using wearable sensorshave rapidly grown in the biomedical community. The mainchallenges in physiological data monitoring are to analyse largevolumes of health measurements and to represent the acquiredinformation. Natural language generation is an effective methodto create summaries for both clinicians and patients as it candescribe useful information extracted from sensor data in textualformat. This paper presents a framework of a natural languagegeneration system that provides a text-based representation ofthe extracted numeric information from physiological sensorsignals. More specifically, a new partial trend detection algorithmis introduced to capture the particular changes and events ofhealth parameters. The extracted information is then representedconsidering linguistic characterisation of numeric features. Ex-perimental analysis was performed using a wearable sensor and demonstrates a possible output in natural language text.

- The past few years have witnessed an increase in the development of wearable sensors for health monitoring systems. This increase has been due to several factors such as development in sensor technology as well as directed efforts on political and stakeholder levels to promote projects which address the need for providing new methods for care given increasing challenges with an aging population. An important aspect of study in such system is how the data is treated and processed. This paper provides a recent review of the latest methods and algorithms used to analyze data from wearable sensors used for physiological monitoring of vital signs in healthcare services. In particular, the paper outlines the more common data mining tasks that have been applied such as anomaly detection, prediction and decision making when considering in particular continuous time series measurements. Moreover, the paper further details the suitability of particular data mining and machine learning methods used to process the physiological data and provides an overview of the properties of the data sets used in experimental validation. Finally, based on this literature review, a number of key challenges have been outlined for data mining methods in health monitoring systems

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- This paper presents an approach to automatically mine rules in time series data representing physiologicalparameters in clinical conditions. The approach is fully data driven, where prototypical patterns are mined foreach physiological time series data. The generated rules based on the prototypical patterns are then describedin a textual representation which captures trends in each physiological parameter and their relation to the otherphysiological data. In this paper, a method for measuring similarity of rule sets is introduced in order tovalidate the uniqueness of rule sets. This method is evaluated on physiological records from clinical classesin the MIMIC online database such as angina, sepsis, respiratory failure, etc.. The results show that the rulemining technique is able to acquire a distinctive model for each clinical condition, and represent the generatedrules in a human understandable textual representation

Ingår i: BMC Public Health. - : Springer Nature. - 1471-2458. ; 23:1
-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Background: Inclusive learning environments are considered as crucial for children's engagement with learning and participation in school. Partnering for change (P4C) is a collaborative school-based service delivery model where services are provided at three levels of intensity based on children's needs (class, group-, individual interventions). Interventions in P4C are provided universally to support all children with learning, not only children with special education needs (SEN), and as such are expected to be health-promoting.Aim: The aim of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of P4C as well as school staff members' and children's experiences after P4C.Methods: In a parallel, non-randomised controlled intervention design, 400 children, aged 6-12 years, and their teachers, will be recruited to either intervention classes, working according to the P4C, or to control classes (allocation ratio 1:1). Data will be collected at baseline, post-intervention (4 months), and 11 months follow-up post baseline. The primary outcome is children's engagement with learning in school. Secondary outcomes include for example children's health-related quality of life and wellbeing, occupational performance in school, attendance, and special educational needs. The difference-in-differences method using regression modelling will be applied to evaluate any potential changes following P4C. Focus group interviews focusing on children, and professionals' experiences will be performed after P4C. A health economic evaluation of P4C will be performed, both in the short term (post intervention) and the long term (11-month follow-up). This study will provide knowledge about the effectiveness of P4C on children's engagement with learning, mental health, and wellbeing, when creating inclusive learning environments using a combination of class-, group- and individual-level interventions.

- PURPOSE Information about the patient's current drug list is a prerequisite for safe drug prescribing. The aim of this study was to explore general practitioners' (GPs) understandings of who is responsible for the patient's drug list so that drugs prescribed by different physicians do not interact negatively or even cause harm. The study also sought to clarify how this responsibility was managed. METHODS We conducted a descriptive qualitative study among 20 Swedish physicians. We recruited the informants purposively and captured their view on responsibility by semistructured interviews. Data were analyzed using a phenomenographic approach. RESULTS We found variation in understandings about who is responsible for the patient's drug list and, in particular, how the GPs use different strategies to manage this responsibility. Five categories emerged: (1) imposed responsibility, (2) responsible for own prescriptions, (3) responsible for all drugs, (4) different but shared responsibility, and (5) patient responsible for transferring drug information. The relation between categories is illustrated in an outcome space, which displays how the GPs reason in relation to managing drug lists. CONCLUSIONS The understanding of the GP's responsibility for the patient's drug list varied, which may be a threat to safe patient care. We propose that GPs are made aware of variations in understanding responsibility so that health care quality can be improved.
