- The aims of this study were to translate the International Skin Tear Advisory Panel (ISTAP) classification system for skin tears into Swedish and to validate the translated system. The research process consisted of two phases. Phase I involved the translation of the classification system, using the forward-back translation method, and a consensus survey. The survey dictated that the best Swedish translation for "skin tear" was "hudfliksskada." In Phase 2, the classification system was validated by health care professionals attending a wound care conference held in the spring of 2017 in Sweden. Thirty photographs representing three types of skin tear were presented to participants in random order. Participants were directed to classify the skin tear types in a data collection sheet. The results indicated a moderate level of agreement on classification of skin tears by type. Achieving moderate agreement for the ISTAP skin tear tool is an important milestone as it demonstrates the validity and reliability of the tool. Skin tear classification typing is a complex skill that requires training and time to develop. More education is required for all health care specialists on the classification of skin tears.

Addressing Public Sector Challenges from a Service Logic Perspective
- 2013
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- A whole range of new public management (NPM) initiatives has during the last 30 years been introduced to meet the challenges of the public sector. The political aim for many of these NPM initiatives has been to get control over public spending and increase the internal efficiency of public sector organizations (PSOs). This has been done, mainly through introducing practices and programs, which has been developed within industrial organizations. In this conceptual paper we outline a service logic framework, which addresses the challenges of the public sector. We argue that this framework may counterbalance the NPM initiatives that has promoted and institutionalized goods logic practices and programs within PSOs. The main notion of this service logic framework is that citizens, as end-users, create value to become better off or to solve a problem. This is done through integration of different resources. The role of PSOs within the service logic is to facilitate resources and/or through interaction collaboratively co-create value. Drawing on a larger service system value creation, value facilitation and value co-creation can be seen as parts of a wider social system which makes them contextual. By outlining a service logic framework, for the public sector, we also suggested 12 implications for management and scholars within the field.

Sjukskrivnas arbetsbörda : Arbetande medborgare möter en kundorienterad byråkrati
- 2018
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Denna avhandling är baserad på en empirisk studie av Försäkringskassan. Teoretiskt tar avhandlingen sitt avstamp i litteraturen om arbetande konsumenter och kundorienterade byråkratier. Följande paradox utgör avhandlingens utgångspunkt: för att kvalificera för sjukförsäkring måste medborgarens förmåga att utföra sitt arbete vara begränsad samtidigt som handläggningen av sjukförsäkringen förutsätter att medborgaren utför arbete för att få tillgång till den. För att förklara hur paradoxen hanteras så är syftet med avhandlingen att kartlägga och förklara de praktiker som arbetande medborgares samt kundorienterade byråkrater, med stöd av andra aktörer, utför för att realisera sjukförsäkringen. Kartläggningen resulterar i konstaterandet att arbetet består av åtta praktiker uppdelade i två teman; stödpraktiker och kontrollpraktiker. Utifrån praktikteori diskuteras sedan hur dessa praktiker samspelar med varandra samt vad som inträffar då samspelet misslyckas. Avhandlingen identifierar även tre strategier som aktörerna använder när samspelet mellan praktiker misslyckas, nämligen korrigering, påtryckning och övertagande.Avhandlingen bidrar med ny kunskap genom att utveckla begreppet arbetande medborgare och genom att kartlägga arbetet som utförs för att realisera offentliga tjänster. Arbetet stimuleras delvis av medborgarnas oro av att göra fel inom försäkringen. Handläggare använder medborgarnas arbete för att underlätta sin arbetssituation genom vad som i avhandlingen benämns byråkratiskt samskapande. Utvecklingen av detta begrepp utgör avhandlingens andra centrala forskningsbidrag. Genom begreppet vidareutvecklas teorin om kundorienterade byråkratier. Begreppet skapar också en grund för en kritisk diskussion av begreppet samskapande inom tjänsteforskningen som förutsätter att medborgare fritt kan påverka utfallet av handläggningen. Avhandlingen visar dock att samskapande för medborgarna i princip uteslutande består av rutinmässig insamling och kontroll av uppgifter.

Nonrelativistic parity-violating hydrodynamics in two spatial dimensions

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- We construct the nonrelativistic parity-violating hydrodynamic description of a two-dimensional dissipative, normal fluid in the presence of small U(1) background fields and vorticity. This is achieved by taking the nonrelativistic limit of the recently developed relativistic hydrodynamics in 2 + 1 dimensions. We identify and interpret the resulting parity-violating contributions to the nonrelativistic constitutive relations, which include the Hall current flowing perpendicular to the temperature gradient, the Hall viscosity, and the Leduc-Righi energy current. Also a comparison of our findings is made with the nonrelativistic parity-violating hydrodynamics obtained from a light-cone dimensional reduction.

A study of the impact of collaborative tools on the effectiveness of clinical pathology conferences
- 2004

Ingår i: Computer Human Interaction. - Berlin, Heidelberg : Springer. - 9783540223122 ; , s. 656-660

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Multidisciplinary conferences in hospitals are becoming an everyday part of health service delivery and being recommended as a mechanism for ensuring quality patient care and management. This paper reports preliminary findings of an ethnographic study of Clinical Pathology Conferences with Respiratory teams. Educational, patient management and organizational objectives of the conference are identified. The findings so far suggest that collaborative technologies have the potential to improve the effectiveness of clinical conference activity. Time, location and missing artefacts are identified as being issues as well as the coordination of the series of events associated with patient investigative and assessment procedures. The implications of recording data and interactions at the conference are also being investigated.

Achieving Diagnosis by Consensus

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This paper provides an analysis of the collaborative work conducted at a multidisciplinary medical team meeting, where a patient’s definitive diagnosis is agreed, by consensus. The features that distinguish this process of diagnostic work by consensus are examined in depth. The current use of technology to support this collaborative activity is described, and experienced deficiencies are identified. Emphasis is placed on the visual and perceptual dif culty for individual specialities in making interpretations, and on how, through collaboration in discussion, definitive diagnosis is actually achieved. The challenge for providing adequate support for the multidisciplinary team at their meeting is outlined, given the multifaceted nature of the setting, i.e. patient management, educational, organizational and social functions, that need to be satisfied.
