Supporting Service Companies
- 2009

Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Conscious development of attractive work increases the possibilities to keep, motivate and develop current co-workers and to attract new competent personnel. Supportive Service Companies (SSC) such as Occupational Health Services, organization consultants, etc. can help the companies in their development. Theme Working Life at Högskolan Dalarna has together with companies developed concrete methods and processes for more attractive work. Altogether 34 persons from 13 SSC participated in four seminars and six method courses. A follow-up was made after 1½ year by 25 interviews with the participants. The methods were seen as impressive, concrete and useful. More than half of the participants had used some method with at least one client. The methods worked well in commercial use and could easily be combined with other methods. The “approach” of the methods, the ability to engage and motivate the employees and the concrete results were appreciated by the SSC and the clients.

- Managers’ conceptions of the importance of human resources are essential for creating ‘attractive workplaces’. This paper examines an intervention method aimed at creating insight among managers in small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) concerning the potential of human resources. The intervention method is called Focus Group Attractive Work (FGAW) and was conducted at eight enterprises in Sweden. Based on the analysis, it is concluded that the intervention method seems to be thought-provoking and to facilitate changes in managers’ conceptions of the importance of human resources, albeit to different degrees.

- PROBLEM: The uniqueness of the human placenta cannot be replaced by animal models. In vitro studies are compulsory to elucidate the biology of human placenta and require isolation and purification of villous trophoblasts, which can be used in molecular and functional studies. Constant improvement in the isolation technique is required to obtain a high yield of pure trophoblast cells with high viability and well preserved morphology.METHOD OF STUDY: Optimized isolation procedure for human villous trophoblasts based on mild enzymatic treatment, Percoll gradient centrifugation and additional purification step involving positive or negative immunoselection on magnetic beads is described.RESULTS: A simple and effective isolation protocol gave a reasonably high yield of villous trophoblast cells with high purity and viability, and excellent morphology as assessed by flow cytometry and electron microscopy.CONCLUSION: This protocol provides an efficient, optimized method for isolation and enrichment of villous trophoblast cells, suitable for phenotypic, ultrastructural, molecular and functional analyses and for establishment of primary cultures.

Anxiety/distress during induction of anaesthesia in children premedicated with clonidine versus midazolam
- 2017
-
Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Background: Children get sedative premedication in order to avoid preoperative anxiety/distress and to get a smooth induction of anaesthesia. Midazolam has been the standard premedication since many years. Recent studies with clonidine has shown good results. We hypothesized that clonidine would be as good as midazolam at getting a calm child and a less distressful induction.Material and methods: A prospective, randomised, blinded study including 116 children 2 - <8 years of age, ASA I-II who underwent ear-nose-throat outpatient surgery in Skellefteå Hospital. EudraCT Number: 2012-005215-42. The children were randomised to premedication with either oral clonidine 4 µg/kg body weight or oral midazolam 0.5 mg/kg body weight. The children were observed preoperatively, from entering the operating room and during the induction of anaesthesia and evaluated using the modified observational instrument Yale Preoperative Anxiety Scale (m-YPAS). The values in the two groups were statistically compared with chi-square test.Results: There was a significant difference between the two groups in favour of midazolam. The children in the clonidine group had higher m-YPAS score showing more anxiety/distress during induction. With prospective subgroup analysis for age groups, there was a much more pronounced difference between groups for the younger children aged 2 up to 5 years of age.Conclusion: Premedication with midazolam, compared to clonidine, appears to lead to less anxiety/distress during induction of anaesthesia in younger children from 2 up to 5, though with less pronounced effect for children 5 up to 8 years of age.
