Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This paper presents a unique scientific research project, funded by the KK-foundation in Sweden together with several companies participating in the project. A primary goal is to find methods to examine and take care of open masonry constructions thereby enabling an increased use of them in a safe and comfortable way without diminishing their cultural values. A second goal is to establish a long-term cooperation/network of researchers, conservators, engineers, antiquarians and craftsmen that can keep and develop the knowledge. The project takes place in year 2010 and 2011. This paper presents a model of cooperation as well as the ongoing experiment and expected results. The project is divided into three major parts:1) Description and assessment of historic masonry as load bearing structures. 2) Assessment of stone and mortar in old masonry and finding the methods to secure and preserve them. 3) The climate in the ruin with respect to comfort and preservation. The goals for the different parts of this research project are to find the best possible solutions of how to: a) Evaluate the construction of complex masonry structures to enable new additions that are appropriate with respect to statics. b) Find efficient methods to evaluate and conserve the status of the materials (stone, mortar) and walls in old masonry to grant safe accessibility. c) Create a comfortable climate in an open masonry structure without closing it. These three research areas all focus on the historic masonry which at the same time forms the climate shell, the bearer of plaster and the historical setting to the activities that are to take place in the ruin.

Lime-based Repair Mortars : Influence by Surface Working Methods onBehaviour and Durability of Mortar
- 2006
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- The main purpose of this study was to observe the influence by different surface working methodson behaviour, durability and appearance of lime-based stone-repair mortars.The findings are based on:- Observations made during restoration work- Observations from field stations- Microscopic analysis of thin sections of mortar- Parallel studies on lime plasterThe results show clear differences in durability, appearance and behaviour of lime-based mortar dependingon at which stage of the drying process the mortar is worked on. For achieving durable mortar it is importantto avoid the development of a surface lime-film. The study implies that the mortar, only when worked on at aspecific stage of drying, will be durable and have a structure, texture and porosity compatible with the surroundingstone material.

Introduction to the Architectural Conservation Project for the Facades of the Royalty Palace of Stockholm
- 2011

Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Sweden’s foremost architectural monument, the Royal Palace of Stockholm, is now officially the object of a profoundly large architectural heritage conservation project. Such projects are always challenging on many levels, not only because monuments are unique structures, but also because all actions and interventions need to be well justified, optimal, and ultimately acceptable to the public. The project for the conservation of the Royal Palace is estimated to last for the next 22 years and it includes a set of sub-programs, one of which is the “Long-term maintenance of the facades”. Focusing on the sub-program for the long-term maintenance of the facades, the authors discuss aspects related to the research that was carried out in order to investigate the structure, to suggest and justify required interventions. Additionally, methods applied to geometrically document the structure are presented here along with reflections on the information management system that will be employed so as to accommodate the documentation needs and information flow for this massive project. The entire case study is presented in conjunction to the ICOMOS “Recommendations for the analysis, conservation and structural restoration of architectural heritage” in an effort to highlight important aspects of the investigation and the decision making process.

SWEDISH NATIONAL REGISTRY FOR BLEEDING DISORDERS – A SECOND REPORT
- 2019
-
Ingår i: EAHAD 2019.
-
Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Introduction: Hemophilia Care in Sweden is centralized to three different and certified European Hemophilia Care Centers (EHCCs) (Stockholm, Gothenburg and Malmö[f1]). A recent web- based National registry has been set up for patients with bleeding disorders in Sweden. The registry is mainly funded by Swedish authorities. Methods: A multi- professional steering committee is running the registry with representatives from all three centers including physicians, nurses, physiotherapist and also a patient representative. A web- based platform, Real- Q, is used for the registry. Results: By the 31st Dec 2017, a total number of 1030 patients with bleeding disorders were included in the registry, mainly patients with hemophilia A, B and Von Willebrand disease. Data regarding bleedings, treatment modality and type of product, inhibitor status, viral infections are collected. Likewise patient reported outcome measurements (PROM)- such as pain and quality of life[.The number of patients with hemophilia A, B and Von Willebrand disease in 2016 resp 2017 were as follows:Hemophilia A; n = 243 in 2016 and n= 691 in 2017.Hemophilia B: n = 49 in 2016 and n = 191 in 2017.Von Willebrand disease: n = 11 in 2016 and n = 152 in 2017.[LMW1] are registered.[LMW2] are registered on a regular basis? Discussion/Conclusion: The number of patients in the Swedish National Registry for bleeding disorders has increased significantly during the last year; from a total of 308 Dec 31st 2016 to 1030 in Dec 31st 2017. Increasing amount of data will enable further evaluation of treatment data and also joint status, quality of life and bleeding reports.

Swedish national registry for bleeding disorders - first report

Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Introduction : Hemophilia care in Sweden is centralized to 3 centers localized in Gothenburg, Malmö and Stockholm. All centers are certi-fied as European Hemophilia Comprehensive Care Centers (EHCCs). Recently a web- based Swedish national registry has been established with funding from Swedish authorities. Methods : One of the conclusions from the earlier reports from the Swedish agency for health technology assessment and assessment of social services (SBU) and the Dental and Pharmaceutical benefits agency (TLV) was that a national registry for hemophilia and other bleeding disorders was needed to be able to follow the long- term effects of the disease and treatment strategies. An application was submitted in 2012 to apply for funding from Swedenʹs municipali-ties and count councils (SKL). The registry was validated as an official national registry. A multi- professional steering committee is running the registry with representatives from all 3 hemophilia centers includ-ing physicians, nurses, physiotherapist and a patient representative. Support regarding legal aspects, IT- solutions, statistics and economy is provided by QRC Stockholm. Results : By now, 780 patients with bleeding disorders are included in the Swedish national Registry and data regarding bleedings, treat-ment with factor concentrate, inhibitor status, mutations, viral infections such as hepatitis C and HIV are collected. Patient reported outcome measurements (PROM)- such as pain and quality of life - HJHS and target joints are followed continuously. Discussion/Conclusion : The establishment of a Swedish National Registry enables us to perform national annual reports, have a close follow- up of our patients and perform clinical research. Currently are working on an on- line patient treatment application recording directly into the registry. Data from the registry will be an important tool for further evaluation of the treatment of hemophilia and how it affects the long- term consequences of the disease.
