  • Beyond the monitors : Anaesthesiologists' experiences of the process of extubation
  • 2022
  • Ingår i: Scandinavian Journal of Caring Sciences. - : Wiley. - 0283-9318 .- 1471-6712. ; 36:4, s. 988-996

    • BACKGROUND: Although extubation is a high-risk phase associated with risk of severe complications for patients undergoing general anaesthesia, there is a lack of research about this phenomenon from the perspective of anaesthesiologists' experiences of the process of extubation in the anaesthesia setting.AIM: To describe Swedish anaesthesiologists' experiences of the extubation process in the anaesthesia setting.METHODS: A qualitative descriptive design study with individual semi-structured interviews was conducted in three hospitals in Sweden with a total of 17 anaesthesiologists. A qualitative manifest content analysis method was used to analyse the data.RESULTS: The anaesthesiologists' experiences were described in two categories: To assemble sensibilities, where the anaesthesiologists are receptive to inputs, create tailored plans, are guided by emotions and experiences, and sense the atmosphere in the process of extubation; and To stay focused, where they understand the importance of preparation and being prepared, and of being calm and strategic, and of needing to trust the registered nurse anaesthetist in the process of extubation.CONCLUSIONS: Decision-making regarding the process of extubation does not rely solely on monitoring signs; rather, the anaesthesiologists described how, by looking beyond the monitors and by being receptive to inputs from the patient and other professionals, their experience and intuition guides them through the process of extubation.

  • Pain rather than induced emotions and ICU sound increases skin conductance variability in healthy volunteers
  • 2016
  • Ingår i: Acta Anaesthesiologica Scandinavica. - : Wiley-Blackwell Publishing Inc.. - 0001-5172 .- 1399-6576. ; 60:8, s. 1111-1120

    • BackgroundAssessing pain in critically ill patients is difficult. Skin conductance variability (SCV), induced by the sympathetic response to pain, has been suggested as a method to identify pain in poorly communicating patients. However, SCV, a derivate of conventional skin conductance, could potentially also be sensitive to emotional stress. The purpose of the study was to investigate if pain and emotional stress can be distinguished with SCV. MethodsIn a series of twelve 1-min sessions with SCV recording, 18 healthy volunteers were exposed to standardized electric pain stimulation during blocks of positive, negative, or neutral emotion, induced with pictures from the International Affective PictureSystem (IAPS). Additionally, authentic intensive care unit (ICU) sound was included in half of the sessions. All possible combinations of pain and sound occurred in each block of emotion, and blocks were presented in randomized order. ResultsPain stimulation resulted in increases in the number of skin conductance fluctuations (NSCF) in all but one participant. During pain-free baseline sessions, the median NSCF was 0.068 (interquartile range 0.013-0.089) and during pain stimulation median NSCF increased to 0.225 (interquartile range 0.146-0.3175). Only small increases in NSCF were found during negative emotions. Pain, assessed with the numeric rating scale, during the sessions with pain stimulation was not altered significantly by other ongoing sensory input. ConclusionIn healthy volunteers, NSCF appears to reflect ongoing autonomous reactions mainly to pain and to a lesser extent, reactions to emotion induced with IAPS pictures or ICU sound.

  • Avoiding or enduring painful sex? : A prospective study of coping and psychosexual function in vulvovaginal pain
  • 2018
  • Ingår i: European Journal of Pain. - : John Wiley & Sons. - 1090-3801 .- 1532-2149. ; 22:8, s. 1388-1398
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Background: Recurring vulvovaginal pain is common, with evident effects on affected women's lives. Little is known about how affected women cope with painful sexual activities and how coping relates to pain intensity and psychosexual functioning over time. This prospective study explored the impact of avoidance and endurance on sexual function over time. Additionally, patterns of coping were studied on an individual level to increase knowledge about coping and its relation to psychosexual functioning.Methods: One hundred and seventeen women, 18-35years old, with recurring vulvovaginal pain answered questionnaires at two measurement points, five months apart, assessing avoidance and endurance coping, pain intensity and psychosexual functioning. A multiple regression model explored the predictive value of avoidance and endurance on sexual function over time. Cluster analyses investigated patterns of coping and stability within the clusters. These subgroups were compared on psychosexual outcomes.Results: Avoidance at baseline was the only significant predictor of sexual function five months later. Distinct and stable subgroups with different patterns of coping were identified, where avoidance and endurance coping were used both separately and combined. Women who both avoided and endured had the most unfavourable outcomes in terms of psychosexual functioning.Conclusions: Avoidance of sexual activities was related to reduced sexual function over time, which calls for attention and clinical interventions targeting avoidance. Additionally, women who both avoid and endure sexual activities despite pain possibly need tailored interventions, as women with this coping pattern reported the lowest levels of psychosexual functioning.Significance: In this prospective study, avoidance of sexual activities predicted sexual function over time, when controlling for pain intensity. Subgroups of women using distinct patterns of coping were identified. Those who both avoided and endured had the lowest levels of psychosexual functioning.

  • Developing an early screening instrument for predicting psychological morbidity after critical illness
  • 2013
  • Ingår i: Critical Care. - : Springer Science and Business Media LLC. - 1364-8535 .- 1466-609X. ; 17:5, s. Art. no. R210-
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Introduction: Guidelines recommend follow-up for patients after an intensive care unit (ICU) stay. Methods for identifying patients with psychological problems after intensive care would be of value, to optimize treatment and to improve adequate resource allocation in ICU follow-up of ICU survivors. The aim of the study was to develop a predictive screening instrument, for use at ICU discharge, to identify patients at risk for post-traumatic stress, anxiety or depression. Methods: Twenty-one potential risk factors for psychological problems - patient characteristics and ICU-related variables - were prospectively collected at ICU discharge. Two months after ICU discharge 252 ICU survivors received the questionnaires Post-Traumatic Stress Symptom scale -10 (PTSS-10) and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) to estimate the degree of post-traumatic stress, anxiety and depression. Results: Of the 150 responders, 46 patients (31%) had adverse psychological outcome, defined as PTSS-10 >35 and/or HADS subscales >= 8. After analysis, six predictors were included in the screening instrument: major pre-existing disease, being a parent to children younger than 18 years of age, previous psychological problems, in-ICU agitation, being unemployed or on sick-leave at ICU admission and appearing depressed in the ICU. The total risk score was related to the probability for adverse psychological outcome in the individual patient. The predictive accuracy of the screening instrument, as assessed with area under the receiver operating characteristic curve, was 0.77. When categorizing patients in three risk probability groups - low (0 to 29%), moderate (30 to 59%) high risk (60 to 100%), the actual prevalence of adverse psychological outcome in respective groups was 12%, 50% and 63%. Conclusion: The screening instrument developed in this study may aid ICU clinicians in identifying patients at risk for adverse psychological outcome two months after critical illness. Prior to wider clinical use, external validation is needed.

  • First Evaluation of a Newly Constructed Underwater Pulse Oximeter for Use in Breath-Holding Activities
  • 2021
  • Ingår i: Frontiers in Physiology. - : Frontiers Media SA. - 1664-042X. ; 12
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Studying risk factors in freediving, such as hypoxic blackout, requires development of new methods to enable remote underwater monitoring of physiological variables. We aimed to construct and evaluate a new water- and pressure proof pulse oximeter for use in freediving research. The study consisted of three parts: (I) A submersible pulse oximeter (SUB) was developed on a ruggedized platform for recording of physiological parameters in challenging environments. Two MAX30102 sensors were used to record plethysmograms, and included red and infra-red emitters, diode drivers, photodiode, photodiode amplifier, analog to digital converter, and controller. (II) We equipped 20 volunteers with two transmission pulse oximeters (TPULS) and SUB to the fingers. Arterial oxygen saturation (SpO(2)) and heart rate (HR) were recorded, while breathing room air (21% O-2) and subsequently a hypoxic gas (10.7% O-2) at rest in dry conditions. Bland-Altman analysis was used to evaluate bias and precision of SUB relative to SpO(2) values from TPULS. (III) Six freedivers were monitored with one TPULS and SUB placed at the forehead, during a maximal effort immersed static apnea. For dry baseline measurements (n = 20), SpO(2) bias ranged between -0.8 and -0.6%, precision between 1.0 and 1.5%; HR bias ranged between 1.1 and 1.0 bpm, precision between 1.4 and 1.9 bpm. For the hypoxic episode, SpO(2) bias ranged between -2.5 and -3.6%, precision between 3.6 and 3.7%; HR bias ranged between 1.4 and 1.9 bpm, precision between 2.0 and 2.1 bpm. Freedivers (n = 6) performed an apnea of 184 +/- 53 s. Desaturation- and resaturation response time of SpO(2) was approximately 15 and 12 s shorter in SUB compared to TPULS, respectively. Lowest SpO(2) values were 76 +/- 10% for TPULS and 74 +/- 13% for SUB. HR traces for both pulse oximeters showed similar patterns. For static apneas, dropout rate was larger for SUB (18%) than for TPULS (<1%). SUB produced similar SpO(2) and HR values as TPULS, both during normoxic and hypoxic breathing (n = 20), and submersed static apneas (n = 6). SUB responds more quickly to changes in oxygen saturation when sensors were placed at the forehead. Further development of SUB is needed to limit signal loss, and its function should be tested at greater depth and lower saturation.

  • Swedish Nurse Anesthetists’ Experiences of the WHO Surgical Safety Checklist
  • 2015
  • Ingår i: Journal of Perianesthesia Nursing. - : Elsevier. - 1089-9472 .- 1532-8473. ; 30:6, s. 468-475
  • Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
    • Purpose: The World Health Organization (WHO) surgical safety checklist aims to increase communication, build teamwork, and standardize routines in clinical practice in order to reduce complications and improve patient safety. The checklist has been implemented in surgical departments both nationally and internationally. The purpose of this study was to describe the registered nurse anesthetists’ (RNA) experience with the use of the WHO surgical safety checklist.Design: This was a cross-sectional study with a descriptive mixed method design, involving nurse anesthetists from two different hospitals in Sweden. Data was collected from a study specific questionnaire.Findings: Forty-seven RNAs answered the questionnaire. There was a statistically significant lower compliance to “Sign-in” compared to the other two parts, “Timeout” and “Sign-out.” The RNAs expressed that the checklist was very important for anesthetic and perioperative care. They also expressed that by confirming their own area of expertise, they achieved an increased sense of being a team member Thirty-four percent believed that the surgeon was responsible for the checklist, yet this was not the reality in clinical practice. Although 23% reported that they initiated use of the checklist, only one RNA believed that it was the responsibility of an RNA. Forty-three percent had received training about the checklist and its use.Conclusion: The WHO surgical checklist facilitates the nurse anesthetists anesthetic and perioperative care. It allows the nurse anesthetist to better identify each patient’s specific concerns and increased sense of being a team member.

  • Experiences of abandonment and anonymity among arthroplastic surgery patients in the perioperative period : some issues concerning communication, pain and suffering
  • 2005
  • Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
    • Det övergripande syftet med avhandlingsarbetet är att illustrera och belysa upplevelsen av att vara patient med behov av ledprotes, avseende aspekterna kommunikation, smärtupplevelse, lidande och tillfredsställelse med vård och behandling. Under väntetiden för ledprotesoperation upplever deltagarna i studierna lidande i olika former, tillika att vården är otillgänglig och onåbar i ett ansiktslöst system (I). Att få information om sin sjukdom vad man kan/får/ska göra är nästan omöjligt. Kontakten med sjukvården är svår att upprätta och det är mestadels patientens ansvar att söka information om vad som händer (II). Den bristfälliga kommunikationen som deltagarna i delstudie I upplever, leder till att de känner sig missförstådda och nedvärderade av sjukvårdssystemet, och därmed befinner sig i en ständig kamp för att få sitt vårdbehov bekräftat. Under deltagarnas vandring i sjukvårdssystemet förändras deras negativa uppfattning om vården till att bli mer positiv när en reell kommunikation och personlig kontakt etablerats (IIV). Fynden i arbetena (I-IV) tolkas inom ramen för Katie Erikssons och Lennart Fredrikssons beskrivningar av lidande och det vårdande samtalet. En del deltagare i studierna har av egen kraft, eller till följd av personliga egenskaper uppnått insikter om sig själva och försonats med sitt lidande, på så sätt har de kunnat bibehålla eller uppnå mening i sin tillvaro. Av egen kraft, eller med hjälp av anhöriga kan individerna få sitt lidande bekräftat och därmed möjligheten att kunna lida ut och försonas med sig själv och den förändrade tillvaron. Så länge som sjukvården upplevs som ett ansiktslöst system finns det deltagare i avhandlingen som inte klarar av att ta itu med sitt lidande. Under patientens vandring i sjukvårdssystemet blir det uppenbart att systemet får ett ansikte först när deltagarna kan relatera till vården i form av en reell person. Vården får inte ett ansikte så länge som patienten upplever sig dåligt bemött utan detta sker när det med Fredrikssons termer uppstår ett vårdande samtal. Under väntetiden för operation finns det relativt få tillfällen där ett vårdande samtal har möjlighet att uppstå. Möjligheten för detta är dock större när patienten väl är inlagd på sjukhuset för att bli opererad, vilket återspeglas i den höga grad av tillfredsställelse med vården som uttrycks i delstudie II-IV. Patienterna är tillfredsställda med vård och behandling, trots att de har upplevt postoperativ smärta i en hög grad. I delstudie III var det 68% (n=40) och i delstudie IV 83.5% (n=50) som hade upplevt smärtor motsvarande ≥ 4 på Visuell Analog Skala (VAS). Under sjukhusvistelsen upplever sig patienten bekräftad och synlig i systemet. Synligheten är ömsesidig då även vården (systemet) får ett ansikte på patienten. I ett vårdande samtal uppstår en känsla av tillit och när detta sker vågar patienten och vårdaren kommunicera på ett öppet sätt där de båda är närvarande i situationen

  • Skydiving culture and its relation to injury risks and injury reporting
  • 2010
  • Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
    • This article explores some aspects of the Swedish skydiving culture and its relation to injury risks and injury reporting. The reference frame emerging from the analyses encompasses experiences of joy, passion and playfulness; and of injury, suffering and death. For the individual the risk of injury is viewed as an integrated element of the recreational activity, counterbalanced by its recreational value. From the findings we suggest that Swedish skydiving culture on an organisational level is carried by the local club; not the national association. Though the association has far-reaching powers over the clubs, skydiving culture at the local drop zone and formal and informal hierarchical structures among skydivers are what really decide how rules are enforced, and if incidents and injuries are reported.
