  • Awareness among nurses about reporting of adverse drug reactions in Sweden
  • 2012
  • Ingår i: Drug, Healthcare and Patient Safety. - 1179-1365. ; 4, s. 61-66
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Background: The purpose of this study was to investigate awareness among nurses regarding their new role as reporters of adverse drug reactions in Sweden and factors that may influence reporting by nurses.Methods: In 2007, all nurses were included in the adverse drug reaction reporting scheme in Sweden. A questionnaire was sent to 753 randomly selected nurses in September 2010.Results: Of the 453 (60%) responding nurses, 265 (58%) were aware that nurses were included in the reporting of adverse drug reactions. Sixty-one nurses (14%) stated that they had reported an adverse drug reaction. Fifteen percent (n = 70) of the respondents had received training about reporting of adverse drug reactions. Almost one third of these (n = 21, 30%) had reported an adverse drug reaction on at least one occasion. Among nurses without training, a smaller proportion (n = 40, 11%, P < 0.05) had reported an adverse drug reaction on at least one occasion. The two factors considered most important by nurses for reporting were the severity of the adverse drug reaction and if the reaction was to a newly approved drug. A majority of the nurses (n = 397, 88%) were interested in a training course in pharmacology as part of their ongoing professional development. One third (32%) of all nurses stated that one reason for not reporting a suspected adverse drug reaction was that the physician responsible did not regard the reaction necessary to report.Conclusion: We found that more than half of the study population of nurses in Sweden were aware of their new role as reporters of adverse drug reactions, but few of the responding nurses had reported an adverse drug reaction. Given that training seems to be associated with high reporting frequency, we suggest more training in pharmacovigilance for nurses.

  • Is the Thoughts and Health programme feasible in the context of Swedish schools? : A quasi-experimental controlled trial study protocol
  • 2021
  • Ingår i: BMJ Open. - : BMJ Publishing Group Ltd. - 2044-6055. ; 11:1
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Introduction Clinical depression is a substantial problem among adolescents, increasing significantly at about age 15 years. It causes impairment in social, academic and familial relationships, as well as ongoing cognitive and emotional difficulties for the individual. A study in Iceland demonstrated that a cognitive-behavioural, developmentally based intervention programme, 'Thoughts and Health', prevented initial episodes of depression and/or dysthymia (DYS) (major depressive disorder/DYS) in adolescents for up to 12 months following completion of the programme. We would like to test the feasibility of implementing the Icelandic method in a Swedish context and to evaluate the long-term effects of such a programme. Methods and analysis A quasi-experimental controlled design, combined with qualitative and quantitative methods, will be used to address the research questions. In this study, 617 children aged similar to 14 years will be screened for depression, and those "at risk" for development of clinical depression will be offered a 12 week course, 'Thoughts and Health'. This course aims to prevent first depression in adolescents. A comparable group of children will function as controls. Depending on the type of variable, baseline comparisons between the two groups of relevant initial measures will be evaluated with t-tests or chi(2) analyses. The effects of the programme on the development of clinical levels of depression will be evaluated using the follow-up data of 6, 12 and 18 months. Index parental depression at baseline will be tested as a moderator in the evaluation of the effects of the prevention programme. Ethics and dissemination This study is approved by the Swedish Ethical Review Board (reference number 2019-03347) in Gothenburg. We plan to disseminate the knowledge gained from this study by publishing our results in peer-reviewed scientific journals and other scholarly outlets.

  • Person-Centered Care
  • 2018

  • Bokkapitel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • Person-centered care is a model for health care that involves a biopsychosocial approach on health (physical, psychological, and social) and the person (body, mind, and psyche; Cloninger, 2004, 2013ab) through the alliance between the one giving care and the one seeking care as equal partners. One of the main aims is to implement a process that goes beyond the diagnostic formulation of identifying a disease state or ill-health, that is, a process of total health status, including ill-being and well-being (Mezzich et al., 2016). A second main aim is to empower the person seeking care to make self-directed informed choices to promote well-being in all planes of her/his life by including her/his subjective narratives, values, and meanings of illness and health as well as personal preferences and choices in treatment and care (Wong & Cloninger, 2010). A third main aim is the promotion of a working alliance in the health care process (Rogers, 1946; Kitwood & Bredin, 1992). This alliance includes the health care personnel, the person seeking the care, significant others, and also other community stakeholders involved in the health care of the person.

  • Impact of the Lund Integrated Medicines Management (LIMM) model on medication appropriateness and drug-related hospital revisits.
  • 2011
  • Ingår i: European Journal of Clinical Pharmacology. - : Springer Science and Business Media LLC. - 0031-6970 .- 1432-1041. ; 67:7, s. 741-752

    • PurposeTo examine the impact of systematic medication reconciliations when admitted to hospital, and medication review while in hospital, on the number of inappropriate medications and unscheduled drug-related hospital revisits in elderly patients.MethodsA prospective, controlled study in 210 patients, aged 65 years or older, who were admitted to one of three internal medicine wards at a University Hospital in Sweden. Patients received either standard care or care according to the Lund Integrated Medicines Management (LIMM) model. A multi-professional team, including a clinical pharmacist, provided medication reconciliations on admission and medication reviews during the hospital stay for the LIMM group. Blinded reviewers evaluated the appropriateness of the prescribing (using the Medication Appropriateness Index) on admission and discharge, and assessed the probability that a drug-related problem was the reason for any patient readmitted to hospital or visiting the emergency department within three months of discharge (using WHO causality criteria).ResultsThere was a greater decrease in the number of inappropriate drugs in the intervention group than in the control group for both the intention-to-treat population (51% [95% CI 43-58%] versus 39% [95% CI 30-48%], p=0.0446) and the per-protocol population (60% [95% CI 51-67%] versus 44% [95% CI 34-52 %], p=0.0106). There were 6 revisits to hospital in the intervention group which were judged as ‘possibly, probably or certainly drug-related’, compared with 12 in the control group (p=0.0469).ConclusionIn this study, medication reconciliation and reviews provided by a clinical pharmacist in a multi-professional team significantly reduced the number of inappropriate drugs and unscheduled drug-related hospital revisits for elderly patients.

  • Identifying no-harm incidents in home healthcare : a cohort study using trigger tool methodology
  • 2020
  • Ingår i: BMC Health Services Research. - : Springer. - 1472-6963. ; 20:1, s. 1-11
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • BackgroundPatient safety in home healthcare is largely unexplored. No-harm incidents may give valuable information about risk areas and system failures as a source for proactive patient safety work. We hypothesized that it would be feasible to retrospectively identify no-harm incidents and thus aimed to explore the cumulative incidence, preventability, types, and potential contributing causes of no-harm incidents that affected adult patients admitted to home healthcare.MethodsA structured retrospective record review using a trigger tool designed for home healthcare. A random sample of 600 home healthcare records from ten different organizations across Sweden was reviewed.ResultsIn the study, 40,735 days were reviewed. In all, 313 no-harm incidents affected 177 (29.5%) patients; of these, 198 (63.2%) no-harm incidents, in 127 (21.2%) patients, were considered preventable. The most common no-harm incident types were “fall without harm,” “deficiencies in medication management,” and “moderate pain.” The type “deficiencies in medication management” was deemed to have a preventability rate twice as high as those of “fall without harm” and “moderate pain.” The most common potential contributing cause was “deficiencies in nursing care and treatment, i.e., delayed, erroneous, omitted or incomplete treatment or care.”ConclusionThis study suggests that it is feasible to identify no-harm incidents and potential contributing causes such as omission of care using record review with a trigger tool adapted to the context. No-harm incidents and potential contributing causes are valuable sources of knowledge for improving patient safety, as they highlight system failures and indicate risks before an adverse event reach the patient.

  • Patient-reported outcomes in the Swedish National Quality Registers
  • 2016
  • Ingår i: Journal of Internal Medicine. - : WILEY-BLACKWELL. - 0954-6820 .- 1365-2796. ; 279:2, s. 141-153
  • Forskningsöversikt (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Patient-reported outcomes (PROs) are important in the healthcare system to gain understanding of patients views on the effects of a treatment. There is an abundance of available patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs), both disease specific and generic. In the Swedish healthcare system, the national quality registers are obliged to incorporate PROs for certification at a high level. A review of the latest annual applications for funding (n = 108) shows that at present, 93 national quality registers include some form of PROM or patient-reported experience measure (PREM). Half of the registers include some type of generic measure, more than half include disease/symptom-specific measures, and around 40% include PREMs. Several different measures and combinations of measures are used, the most common of which are the EQ-5D, followed by the SF-36/RAND-36. About one-fifth of the registers report examples of how patient-reported data are used for local quality improvement. These examples include enhancing shared decision-making in clinical encounters (most common), as a basis for care plans, clinical decision aids and treatment guidelines, to improve the precision of indications for surgery (patient and healthcare professional assessments may differ), to monitor complications after the patient has left hospital and to improve patient information. In addition, funding applications reveal that most registers plan to extend their array of PROMs and PREMs in future, and to increase their use of patient-reported data as a basis for quality improvement.

  • Injuries and preventive actions in elite Swedish volleyball.
  • 2006
  • Ingår i: Scandinavian journal of medicine & science in sports. - : Wiley. - 0905-7188 .- 1600-0838. ; 16:6, s. 433-40
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • The purpose of this study was to examine the prevalence of injury and the extent of preventive actions in elite Swedish volleyball players. Injuries to players in the elite male and female Swedish division, during the 2002-2003 season, were registered by using a questionnaire. Of the 158 volleyball players (70% response rate), a total of 82 players (52%) reported 121 injuries, during a total exposure time of 24 632 h, representing an overall incidence of 0.77 injuries per player. The majority of the injuries were located in the ankle (23%), followed by the knee (18%) and the back (15%). Most injuries (62%) were classified as being of minor severity. Most injuries occurred during training (47%), and 41% of the injuries had a gradual onset. Fifty-four percent of the injuries that could be related to a specific court situation occurred during blocking, and 30% during spiking. Most players (96%) participated in injury prevention training of some kind, generally performed without supervision (58%). Although most players took part in some kind of preventive action, one out of two players incurred an injury during the season, which indicates that the risk of suffering an injury in elite volleyball is relatively high.

  • Short- and long-term consequences of different early environmental conditions on central immunoreactive oxytocin and arginine vasopressin levels in male rats
  • 2010
  • Ingår i: Neuropeptides. - : Elsevier BV. - 0143-4179 .- 1532-2785. ; 44:5, s. 391-398
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Numerous studies have provided evidence for an important role for the neuropeptides oxytocin (OT) and arginine vasopressin (AVP) in establishment of social behaviour early in life, such as mother-pup interactions. However, there are few reports examining the consequences of early-life experiences on OT and AVP in male offspring. We have used the maternal separation (MS) model to study the effect of different early environmental conditions in rats. The purpose was to study OT and AVP in rats subjected to prolonged daily MS (360 min, MS360), short daily MS (15 min, MS15) and conventional animal facility rearing (AFR) during postnatal days 1-21. In addition, the influence of the presence or absence of littermates during MS, i.e. litter-wise (l) or individual (i) MS, was assessed. The immunoreactive (ir) peptide levels were measured in the hypothalamus, amygdala and pituitary gland of 3 and 10 weeks old male rats. Assessment in 3-week-old rats revealed that MS15 was associated with low ir OT levels in the hypothalamus and amygdala and high levels in the pituitary gland compared with the MS360 and AFR condition. In the amygdala, differences between groups were also detected in adulthood. MS studies commonly use either MS15 or AFR as a control for prolonged MS. The present results show differences in MS360 rats as compared to MS15 but not AFR rats. Consequently, comparisons between prolonged MS with either short periods of MS or AFR will generate divergent results, hence, making the outcome of MS difficult to compare between studies. Moreover, the different early environments had no effect on ir AVP levels. In conclusion, OT in the amygdala was most sensitive to MS. Besides both short- and long-term consequences, distinct effects were seen after litter and individual separation, respectively. We propose that environmentally induced alterations in OT transmission due to disrupted mother-pup interactions early in life may cause altered susceptibility to challenges later in life.

  • Short and prolonged periods of maternal separation and voluntary ethanol intake in male and female ethanol-preferring AA and ethanol-avoiding ANA rats
  • 2005
  • Ingår i: Alcoholism. - 0145-6008 .- 1530-0277. ; 29:4, s. 591-601
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • BACKGROUND: Genetic as well as environmental factors can affect the propensity for psychopathology and/or drug dependence. Maternal separation represents an animal experimental model that is useful in studies of effects of early life experiences. The authors have established a protocol for short and prolonged periods of maternal separation to study adult neurochemistry, behavior, and ethanol intake and have previously reported alterations in ethanol intake in Wistar rats and ethanol-preferring rats. The aim of the current study was to more thoroughly study how early life experiences affect an inherited propensity for high and low ethanol intake, respectively, in male and female ethanol-preferring AA (Alko alcohol) and ethanol-avoiding ANA (Alko, Non-Alcohol) rats. METHODS: AA and ANA pups were assigned to one of three different rearing conditions: 15 min (MS15) or 360 min (MS360) of daily maternal separation in litters or normal animal facility rearing (AFR) during postnatal days 1 to 21. In adulthood, voluntary ethanol intake was investigated using the two-bottle free choice paradigm. RESULTS: In male ethanol-preferring AA rats, MS15 resulted in a lower intake and fewer high-preferring animals at 8% and 10% ethanol compared with MS360 rats. The male MS360 rats had a higher ethanol intake at 8% and 10% ethanol in comparison with AFR rats. In contrast, the female AA MS15 and MS360 rats had a lower ethanol intake and a lower preference for the 10% ethanol solution compared with the female AA AFR rats. In male and female ANA rats, no major separation-induced effects were found. CONCLUSIONS: The current results show that genetic inheritance can be affected by environmental manipulations in AA rats with an inherent high ethanol intake. The findings in female ethanol-preferring AA rats give further evidence of a differential outcome of maternal separation in male and female rats, as previously shown.

  • Human neural progenitor cells promote photoreceptor survival in retinal explants
  • 2010
  • Ingår i: Experimental Eye Research. - : Elsevier BV. - 0014-4835 .- 1096-0007. ; 90:2, s. 292-299
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Different types of progenitor and stem cells have been shown to provide neuroprotection in animal models of photoreceptor degeneration. The present study was conducted to investigate whether human neural progenitor cells (HNPCs) have neuroprotective properties on retinal explants models with calpain- and caspase-3-dependent photoreceptor cell death. In the first experiments, HNPCs in a feeder layer were co-cultured for 6 days either with postnatal rd1 mouse or normal rat retinas. Retinal histological sections were used to determine outer nuclear layer (ONL) thickness, and to detect the number of photoreceptors with labeling for calpain activity, cleaved caspase-3 and TUNEL The ONL thickness of co-cultured rat and rd1 retinas was found to be almost 10% and 40% thicker, respectively, compared to controls. Cell counts of calpain activity, cleaved caspase-3 and TUNEL labeled photoreceptors in both models revealed a 30-50% decrease when co-cultured with HNPCs. The results represent significant increases of photoreceptor survival in the co-cultured retinas. In the second experiments, for an identification of putative survival factors, or a combination of them, a growth factor profile was performed on conditioned medium. The relative levels of various growth factors were analyzed by densitometric measurements of growth factor array membranes. Following growth factors were identified as most potential survival factors: granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF), granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GMCSF), insulin-like growth factor 11 (IGF-II), neurotrophic factor 3 (NT-3), placental growth factor (PIGF), transforming growth factors (TGF-beta 1 and TGF-beta 2) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF-D). HNPCs protect both against calpain- and caspase-3-dependent photoreceptor cell death in the rd1 mouse and against caspase-3-dependent photoreceptor cell death in normal rat retinas in vitro. The protective effect is possibly achieved by a variety of growth factors secreted from the HNPCs. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
