- Aim: Reviewing the scientific literature with regards to urinary catheter washouts in order to prevent occlusion. Background: Patients with long-term indwelling urinary catheters often suffers from catheter blockage. Encrustations and the forming of biofilm on the catheter surface are among the most common causes of occlusion. It is unknown whether urinary catheter washout is the treatment of choice to prevent occlusion. Methods: A systematic review of the scientific literature regarding urinary catheter washouts. The study was conducted by two independent reviewers. The search used MeSH and freetext terms, in The Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, Academic Search Elite, CINAHL, MedLine and SweMed+, and an additional mapping of clinical guidelines in order to update praxis. Findings: The study shows that there is insufficient scientific evidence as to whether urinary catheter washouts prevent catheter blockage. Conclusion: There is insufficient evidence that urinary catheter washouts are beneficial. Individual care planning and evaluation of long-term indwelling catheter care is important in minimizing the risk of harmful side effects.

Tidskriftsartikel (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The EPUAP (European Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel) has developed a European-wide prevalence survey methodology, which has been used in several European countries. The EPUAP-protocol has been translated to Swedish and two prevalence studies have been conducted at Uppsala University and one at MalmöUniversity Hospital. The aim of this paper is to present the modified EPUAP-protocoll as well as our experience in using the methodology. Pressure ulcershave been described as a national quality indicator and the protocol could facilitate the follow up of an important nursing area.

- This development project was aimed at engaging nursing students in a project targeting the prevention and reduction of pressure ulcers on an education based hospital ward. An intervention was implemented based on systematic assessment, skin observation, together with training and educational sessions, i.e. on how to make risk assessments and how to prevent and treat a pressure ulcer, were carried out. The project demonstrated the importance of offering nursing students an environment for clinical practice which supports them in participating and developing patient care starting from Evidence-Based Practice. During the project no patients developed pressure ulcers while on the ward. The opportunityto act as facilitators of evidence-based methods was found to enhance student ability to draw conclusions and make connections between quality of care and end result.

Forskningsöversikt (refereegranskat)abstract
- The Swedish healthcare system is organized in a way that all nurses despite formal competence and experience have the same responsibilities. A newly graduated nurse has the same work-load and responsibility in patient care as the experienced nurse. newly graduated nurses need supervision by clinical experts in the process of developing skills, but also to reduce risks that exists when their authority is above their skills and level of experience. The aim was to identify existing organizational models were the nurses´work has been formalized according to their level of competence and experince in order to improve patient safety and patient satisfaction. A search with a systematic approach in CINAHL, The Cochrane Library and MedLine was performed. A total of 397 studies were identified and 31 articles were screened in full text. Finally three articles , which are insufficient with regards to issue recommendations, presented common factors as models that focus on experienced nurses´competence and the organization of patient care. The research regarding models of organization that secure nursing competence in patient care, how it is utilized and, it´s effect on patient care is insufficient. there is a need for extensive research examining this relation at ward level.
