- Aims and objectives: The aim was to explore and describe the child's active participationin daily healthcare practice at children's hospital units in Sweden.Objectives: (a) Identify everyday situations in medical and nursing care that illustratechildren's active participation in decision‐making, (b) identify various ways of activeparticipation, actual and optimal in situations involving decision‐making and (c) explorefactors in nursing and medical care that influence children's active participation indecision‐making.Background: Despite active participation being a fundamental right for children, theyare not always involved in decision‐making processes during their health care. Therestill remains uncertainty on how to support children to actively participate in decisionsconcerning their health care.Design: A qualitative study with overt, nonparticipant observations fulfilling theCOREQ checklist criteria.Methods: Observations of interactions between children aged 2 and 17 years withboth acute and chronic conditions, their parents, and healthcare professionals wereconducted at three paediatric hospitals in Sweden. The Scale of Degrees of SelfDetermination was used to grade identified situations. The scale describes five levelsof active participation, with level one being the least and level five being the mostactive level of participation. Normative judgements were also made.Results: Children's active participation was assessed as being generally at levels fourand five. Children demonstrated both verbal and nonverbal ways of communicationduring decision‐making. Findings indicated that children's, parents' and healthcareprofessional's actions influenced children's active participation in decision‐makingprocesses involving healthcare.Conclusions: Healthcare professionals specialised in paediatrics need to embrace botha child perspective and a child's perspective, plan care incorporating key elements of achild‐centred care approach, to ensure children's active participation at a level of theirchoosing.

How are children’s best interests expressed during their hospital visit? : An observational study
- 2021
-

- Aims and objectives: To describe ways in which children's best interests were observed to be expressed in paediatric settings during their hospital visit. Background: The best interests of the child are embodied in national and international legal systems, although the definition remains problematic. The child's limited autonomy mandates duty bearers to have both a child perspective and the child's perspective when considering what the best interest of the child entails in care situations. Design: A qualitative descriptive study with overt, non-participant observations fulfilling the COREQ criteria. Methods: Thirty-two observations of interactions between children aged 2 to 17 years with both acute and chronic conditions, their parents and healthcare professionals were conducted at three paediatric hospitals in Sweden. Inductive and abductive reasoning were used in the content analysis of data, which followed the identification, coding, categorising and abstraction of observed patterns of the best interest of the child. Results: Findings reveal facilitating and obstructing factors for the child's best interests to be safeguarded in healthcare situations. Children were guided in or hindered from exercising their competence. The observations showed a variation in actions taken by both parents and healthcare professionals to safeguard the best interests of the child. Conclusions: Determining the best interest of the child requires a case-by-case basis, as it is context-dependent, situational, flexible and dependent on all actors involved and actual decisions made. Relevance to clinical practice: Healthcare professionals’ actions can facilitate or obstruct observed expressions of the child's best interest. It is essential to enhance healthcare professionals’ communication skills, knowledge awareness and continuing education about the rights of children receiving healthcare services. Reflections and discussions on how to protect the best interests of children may help healthcare professionals to uphold children's best interest in daily clinical practice.

Health-related quality of life in children with Type 1 diabetes : an RCT of hospital-based care and hospital-based home care at diagnosis
- 2017
-
Ingår i: International Diabetes Nursing. - : Taylor & Francis. - 2057-3316 .- 2057-3324. ; 14:2-3, s. 90-95

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Introduktion: När ett barn får diagnosen typ 1 diabetes betyder det omfattande ändringar i livsstilen för hela familjen. Det finns begränsad kunskap avseende den påverkan som den initiala vården har för barn och föräldrar. Syftet var att jämföra barns diabetesspecifika hälsorelaterade livskvalitet (HRQOL) i sjukhusbaserad vård och sjukhusbaserad hemsjukvård (HBHC), 12 respektive 24 månader efter debuten av typ 1 diabetes. Syftet var också att jämföra barnens och föräldrarnas beskrivning av barnens diabetesspecifika HRQOL efter 12 och 24 månader oavsett vårdform. Metod: Undersökningen genomfördes vid ett universitetssjukhus i Sverige och hade en randomiserad kontrollerad design för att utvärdera sjukhusbaserad vård och HBHC, med hänvisning till specialist vård i en hemmiljö. Barn i åldern 5-16 år och deras föräldrar besvarade enkäten PedsQLTM 3.0 Diabetes Module, 12 månader och 24 månader efter debuten av sjukdomen. Resultat: Resultatet visade ingen skillnad avseende barnens diabetes-specifika HRQOL. Däremot, 12 månader efter diagnos, upplevde barnen och deras föräldrar som fått HBHC mer oro jämfört med de som hade fått sjukhusbaserad vård vid diagnosen (p=0,012). Oaktat vilken vårdform som erbjudits rapporterade barnen mer obehag av sjukdomen jämfört med vad deras föräldrar upplevde att barnen kände (p=0.017). Konklusion: Sammanfattningsvis så indikerar resultatet att både sjukhusbaserad vård och HBHC erbjuder jämförbara resultat gällande barnens diabetes-specifika HRQOL. Dock verkar en vårdmodell mer lik vård i hemmet innebära större påfrestning för vissa familjer. Dessa familjer behöver bli identifierade och rutinerna behöver vara mer flexibla för att kunna möta dessa familjers behov.

-
Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Background: There is limited knowledge about perceived challenges during the transition to adulthood among immigrant youths who are originally from Arabic-speaking countries but now residing in Sweden. Aim: The aim of this study was to describe self-identified problems encountered by immigrant youths with disabilities from Middle Eastern countries who were living in Sweden during their transition to adulthood and to compare these descriptions to the problems identified by their caregivers.Methods: Seventeen semi-structured interviews using the Canadian Occupational Performance Measure were conducted with 17 immigrant youths with intellectual disabilities aged 13-24 years and 16 caregivers, originally from Middle Eastern countries. The participants’ prioritized problems were categorized using the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health-Children & Youth Version, focusing on Activity and Participation.Results: A difference in priorities during transition was found when comparing the youths’ and the caregivers’ views. Most of the youths’ priorities were identified in the chapter “Major Life Area” about basic economic transactions and seeking employment, whilst the caregivers thought their youths’ prioritized “self-care”.Conclusion and implications for practice: Planning the best transition for immigrant youths with disabilities involves enabling them to identify their own preferences and needs while collaborating with caregivers and taking into consideration the cultural norms and traditions of collective caregiving.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Background: Recent years of research have increased the knowledge about how to support the transition to adulthood for youths with disabilities. In today’s multi-cultural societies knowledge about transitioning immigrant youths and their caregivers is still needed.Objective: To describe the expectations and needs of immigrant youths with disabilities residing in Sweden during their transition into adulthood as well as the expectations and needs of their caregivers, all of whom come from Arabic-speaking countries.Method: Structured interviews based on the Rotterdam Transition Profile (RTP) questionnaire were conducted with youths 16 to 24 years of age and with caregivers based on the Family Needs Survey (FNS).Results: Findings of interest were the youths´ dependence on parents for care demands and leisure activities, their need for information regarding future care and support and their concerns regarding future marriage. Caregivers’ felt unfamiliar with the term ‘intellectual disability’ and had a need for information about their youths’ condition and of available service for their children now and in the future.Conclusion: To prepare immigrant youths for future support, health care and habilitation services, it is important to enhance their autonomy. Immigrant families need culturally sensitive support and information, provided by designated professionals in their language of preference during the youths’ transition to adulthood.

Mothers’ experiences after coming home from the hospital with a moderately to late preterm infant – a qualitative study
- 2019

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Background: Mothers of preterm infants are at greater risk of symptoms of stress and anxiety compared to mothers of term infants. Aims: This study aimed to explore mothers’ experiences after coming home from the hospital with a moderately to late preterm infant. Methods: A qualitative and explorative method was used. Ten mothers who had given birth to a preterm baby with a gestational age between 30.0 and 36.0 were interviewed. The interviews were conducted two to three months after the mothers and their babies were discharged from hospital. The data were analysed by means of latent and manifest qualitative content analysis. Findings: One overall theme emerged from the analysis: ‘Seeing the light at the end of the tunnel’ and four categories were identified ‘Finding a safe haven at home’, ‘Gaining support and learning to ensure optimal feeding’, ‘Seeing the child's possibilities’ and ‘Receiving professional attention and reassurance’. In particular, adequate breastfeeding guidance and help with practical tasks at home were emphasised as important for the mothers, and need to be incorporated into the practice of public health nurses. Conclusions: Practical help and support from close people, combined with individual professional follow-up, were important for the mothers’ ability to cope with the hospital-to-home transition. There should be a strong focus on breastfeeding guidance as the mothers experienced problems for several months after discharge, and felt they were missing out on breastfeeding guidance given to term babies in hospital.
