- Objectives: The aim of this study was to establish the top 10 research uncertainties in aortic dissection together with the patient organization Aortic Dissection Association Scandinavia using the James Lind Alliance concept. Methods: A pilot survey aiming to identify uncertainties sent to 12 patients was found to have high content validity (scale content validity index = 0.91). An online version of the survey was thereafter sent to 30 patients in Aortic Dissection Association Scandinavia and 45 caregivers in the field of aortic dissection. Research uncertainties of aortic dissection were gathered, collated and processed. Results: Together with research priorities retrieved from five different current guidelines, 94 uncertainties were expressed. A shortlist of 24 uncertainties remained after processing for the final workshop. After the priority-setting process, using facilitated group format technique, the ranked final top 10 research uncertainties included diagnostic tests for aortic dissection; patient information and care continuity; quality of life; endovascular and medical treatment; surgical complications; rehabilitation; psychological consequences; self-care; and how to improve prognosis. Conclusion: These ranked top 10 important research priorities may be used to justify specific research in aortic dissection and to inform healthcare research funding decisions.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Inflammatory processes may provoke epileptic seizures and seizures may promote an immune reaction. Hence, the systemic immune reaction is a tempting diagnostic and prognostic marker in epilepsy. We explored the immune response before and after epileptic and psychogenic non-epileptic seizures (PNES). Serum samples collected from patients with videoEEG-verified temporal or frontal lobe epilepsy (TLE or FLE) or TLE + PNES showed increased interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels in between seizures (interictally), compared to controls. Patients with PNES had no increase in IL-6. The IL-6 levels increased transiently even further within hours after a seizure (postictally) in TLE but not in FLE patients. The postictal to interictal ratio of additionally five immune factors were also increased in TLE patients only. We conclude that immune factors have the potential to be future biomarkers for epileptic seizures and that the heterogeneity among different epileptic and non-epileptic seizures may be disclosed in peripheral blood sampling independent of co-morbidities.

- Aim: The aim was to identify planned and completed preventive interventions among older persons with oral health problems receiving municipal health care. A further aim was to determine the correspondence between oral health problems and planned preventive interventions among older persons with oral health problems receiving municipal health care. Design: Cross-sectional register study. Methods: Oral health data from the Swedish national quality registry, Senior Alert, were extracted for 4,024 older persons (>= 65 years) receiving municipal health care in a county in Southern Sweden. Data were statistically analysed. Results: A large majority of older persons (97.4%) with assessed oral health problems had at least one planned preventive intervention, and approximately three quarters of the planned interventions were completed. There seemed to be a mismatch between type of oral health problems and preventive interventions as not all older persons had a planned preventive intervention related to their specific oral health problem.

- Interprofessional Education (IPE) is essential to prepare future health-care professionals for collaborative practice, but IPE requires evaluation. One psychometrically sound instrument is the Interprofessional Education Collaborative Competence Self-Efficacy Tool consisting of nine items (IPECC-SET 9). This tool does not, to date, exist in a Swedish version. Therefore, the aim of this study was to translate and validate the Swedish version of the IPECC-SET 9. The English version was translated into Swedish and tested among 159 students in the 3-year Bachelor Programs in Nursing and in Biomedical Laboratory Science. The psychometric analysis was guided by a Rasch model, which showed that the items functioned well together, confirming unidimensionality, and that the person misfit was also lower than the set criterion. The separation index was 2.98, and the Rasch-equivalent Cronbach-alpha measure was estimated to .92, supporting internal consistency. No systematic differences on item level in IPECC-SET 9 further supported fairness in testing. The Swedish IPECC-SET 9 demonstrates sound psychometric properties and has the potential to be used as a measure of self-efficacy for competence in interprofessional collaborative practice among health profession students. However, the IPECC-SET 9 is recommended to be further tested in larger samples representing the entirety of health-care teams.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Aim: The aim was to explore planned nursing interventions and evaluations of such interventions, in older people at risk for malnutrition living in municipal residential care homes. Designs: A registry study. Methods: The study was conducted using data from the Swedish national quality registry Senior Alert. Data on all persons assessed and registered in Senior Alert living in municipal residential care homes in a mid‐sized town between January and December 2014 were subjected to statistical analysis. Results: In total, 677 nutritional risk assessments were performed among the participants (N = 587), who were between 65‐109 years. A larger proportion of women were estimated as being at risk for malnutrition compared with men. The three most common prescribed nursing interventions were nutritional treatment, dietary support and weight control; however, interventions were not prescribed for all participants at risk for malnutrition. Lesser than 50% of the interventions were evaluated, with dietary support, pharmaceutical review and weight control the three most likely to be evaluated. Further, planned interventions for participants at risk of malnutrition were implemented more often for men than for women.

Patient and public involvement in hospital quality improvement interventions : the mechanisms, monitoring and management
- 2022
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This dissertation focuses on the mechanisms, monitoring and management of patient and public involvement in hospital quality improvement (QI) interventions. Findings from a literature review generated an initial programme theory (PT) on active patient involvement in healthcare QI interventions (Paper 1). Empirical studies were also undertaken in order to describe what was actually happening in the hospital QI teams and what patients and professionals experience influence their joint involvement (Paper 2), and to compare hospital leaders’ and managers’ experiences of managing QI interventions involving patients and the public (Paper 3). Finally, it was studied how patient-reported measures stimulate patient involvement in QI interventions in practice (Paper 4). The research had a qualitative design. The approach was descriptive and comparative, and the studies were carried out prospectively. Data were collected in two hospital organisations in Sweden and in one hospital organisation in the Netherlands. Data collection methods were a literature search (Paper 1), interviews and field observations (Paper 2 and 3) and data collection meetings (Paper 4). Altogether, 93 team meetings and meetings between the team leaders and management were attended and a total of 20 days of study visits with different forms of meetings were made. Twelve patients, 12 healthcare professionals and 17 and 8 hospital leaders and managers, respectively, participated in the interviews and data collection meetings. Realist synthesis was used to formulate the initial PT (Paper 1). Constructivist grounded theory was used to analyse and describe what was happening in the QI teams and how it was experienced by the team members (Paper 2). To compare hospital leaders’ and managers’ different, contextual meanings in Sweden and the Netherlands, the reflexive thematic analysis informed by critical realism was used (Paper 3). To order, manage and map data from 31 examples of local QI interventions associated to patient-reported measures, the framework method was used (Paper 4). The results formulate a generic PT on the mechanisms, monitoring and management perspectives of co-produced QI interventions in hospital services where patients and the public are involved. The PT provides a hypothesis on the various mechanisms at play and outcomes obtained at the different levels of hospital organisations in the process. It is argued that focus should be on experiences, interaction, relationships and dialogue, integration of context, and the matching of hospital resources to patient and public demands and needs. Subsequently, the outcome will be the resources and reasoning interplay resulting in actions and processes, experiences and knowledge, ‘product’ benefits, emotions, judgements and motivations. Monitoring constitutes an important feedback loop to enable such learnings. The PT aligns the perspectives of the clinical microsystem, improvement science and the service-dominant logic, and has a potential to explain how patient and public involvement in QI interventions might work.

- BACKGROUND: People with intellectual disabilities in staffed group homes often need lifelong support and dependency on others. Thereby, special demands are placed on staff and service managers to ensure opportunities for participation in everyday life. This study aims to explore how service managers promote participation in Swedish group homes for adults with intellectual disabilities. METHOD: A qualitative research design involving individual interviews with 14 service managers was used to gain an understanding of how the participation of adults with intellectual disabilities can be promoted in Swedish group homes. RESULTS: The results comprise two main themes; Creating preconditions for participation and Barriers for promotion of participation. CONCLUSIONS: Service managers experienced that promoting service user participation in group homes was an important part of their responsibility. The findings indicate that structural strategies such as coaching, supervision and reflection are important and should be further developed.
