Utvärderingsverkstäder i välfärdsverksamheter : studier av verkstädernas kvalitet och nytta

Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Med inspiration från aktionsforskningen har olika former av förändringsinriktad och deltagarbaserad forskning och utvecklingsarbete utvecklats, under beteckningar som forsknings- eller FoU-cirklar (Socialstyrelsen, 2002), participatorisk aktionsforskning (Participatory Action Research, PAR) (Holmer & Starrin, 1993), handlingsorienterat forskningssamarbete (Co-operative Inquiry) (Reason & Heron, 1986; Hummelvoll, 2006). Dessa olika arbetssätt förenas i en gemensam syn på hur kunskap kan utvecklas, spridas och användas: gemensamt och i samarbete, och inte utifrån ett ’top-down-perspektiv’. Utvärderingsverkstäder (i fortsättningen förkortat UV), som utgår från denna tradition, arrangeras av FoU-enheter inom välfärdsområdet, och/eller av högskola/universitet. I dessa verkstäder träffas en grupp deltagare tillsammans med utvärderingskunniga ledare från FoU-enheten/högskolan. Deltagarna genomför med stöd från ledarna och de övriga deltagarna utvärderingar, eller utvecklar system för utvärdering, på uppdrag av sina respektive organisationer.Syftet med detta paper är att redovisa och diskutera tio års erfarenheter från UV vid fyra FoU-enheter och en högskola i Mellansverige, ur deltagarnas och deras organisationers, samt ledarnas och de ansvariga enheternas/högskolans perspektiv.

- Mild sclerotic thickening of the aortic valve affects 25% of the population, and the condition causes aortic valve stenosis (AS) in 2% of adults above 65 years. Echocardiography is today the clinical standard for assessing AS. However, a cost effective and uncomplicated technique that can be used for decision support in the primary health care would be of great value. In this study, recorded phonocardiographic signals were analyzed using the first local minimum of the auto mutual information (AMI) function. The AMI method measures the complexity in the sound signal, which is related to the amount of turbulence in the blood flow and thus to the severity of the stenosis. Two previously developed phonocardiographic methods for assessing AS severity were used for comparison, the murmur energy ratio and the sound spectral averaging technique. Twenty-nine patients with suspected AS were examined with Doppler echocardiography. The aortic jet velocity was used as a reference of AS severity, and it was found to correlate with the AMI method, the murmur energy ratio and the sound spectral averaging technique with the correlation coefficient R = 0.82, R = 0.73 and R = 0.76, respectively.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- The concept of healthy workplace has been defined as an organization that maximizes the integration of worker goals for wellbeing and company objectives for profitability and productivity. Conditions in today’s working life make new approaches necessary in order to limit negative health effects of work and to enhance wellbeing and health at work. About 24 % of the working population in Sweden report to have had work-related disorders during the last twelve months. In order to achieve a sustainable working life it is likely that strategies and actions from different and new angles are needed.ObjectivesThe present study is a part of a larger study (the GodA –study; a Swedish acronym for good work environments and healthy workplaces) and aims to investigate how work environment factors, work ability, work motivation, work and life balance predict well-being at work.MethodsThe GodA study is a 2-year follow up study in Sweden with a survey feedback design in three companies with both blue- and white collar workers. One of the companies serves as “intervention-company”, the other two as controls. A baseline questionnaire was sent out 2013 and the results from the survey were reported back to the companies, which have been processing their results. In spring 2015 a follow up survey has been administered. Data have been analysed with univariate and multivariate linear regression analyses.ResultsA baseline multivariate linear regression model, which included background factors, perceived psychosocial work climate and work environmental factors (motivation, leadership, employee responsibilities, efficacy, work ability and management committed to employee health) and work life balance, showed that psychosocial work climate (B= .48, 95% CI=.27 – .69) leadership, (B= .27, 95% CI=.05– .49), work ability (B= -.12, 95% CI= .03 – .21), motivation (B= -33, 95% CI= .14 – .51) and work life balance (B= -.34, 95% CI=-.57– -.12), were signifi-cantly associated with well-being at work and explained 40% of the variance (Adjusted R2=.40, p<.001).ConclusionsResults showed that not only work environment factors are important predictors. To maintain a healthy work place a promotion of balance between work and private life is needed.
