- Children with urinary tract and bowel malformation often realize that they do not have the same body and genital appearance as their schoolmates. This sensitive matter affects their integrity, a private problem that not is discussed in public. It is a lack of prevention program, particularly developed in cooperation with the children. The goal with the present project was to get tools for support in daily live. The aim of the study was together with the children, family, hospital staff and researcher; develop a web-based support program to be used in home setting. The study was conducted between 2011and2015. A participatory design was employed following the approach in person centred care with a partnership between 22 children 3-7 years old, their families and the research group of 8 persons. The program was built on stories about two children, their actions in different situations and with images to support the stories. Open conversations were used for the data collection and data were analysed using qualitative content analysis. Steps of 8 themes were formed from the developing of the web-based program, which offered a user-friendly support in daily life for the children with long-term illnesses and family.

- 1. Introduction Long-term illness is usually a challenge for both children and their families [1]. Children with urogenital malformation or bowel disturbances are a vulnerable group who are at greater risk of experiencing ill health. They are often supported in situations related to their malformation by parents and others. When at school, the child suddenly has to face and cope with situations they are not used to; they often feel excluded, afraid of relationships with the opposite sex and subjected to bullying [2]-[4]. They express a great need for support in daily life [5]-[8]. The social and emotional consequences of long-term illness need to be addressed [9]. However, there is lack of studies investigating prevention of ill health in this group of children. Health promotion is the process of enabling people to increase their control over, and to improve their health. To reach a state of complete physical, mental and social wellbeing, the child must be able to identify and to realize aspirations, to satisfy needs, and to change or cope with the environment. Health is, therefore, seen as a resource, not the objective, in everyday life. Health is a positive concept that emphasizes social and personal resources, as well as physical capacities. Health promotion is not just the responsibility of the health sector; it goes beyond healthy lifestyles to wellbeing [10]. However, the needs of children with the same disease are not necessarily the same. Person-centred care (PCC) is explained as focusing on the person and not on the illness. The purpose is to make care and treatment more personal and to understand behaviour and symptoms from the perspective of the individual patient. To do this, it is important to proceed from knowledge of the sick person’s living patterns and priorities [11]. Studies have been conducted with positive outcomes, mainly for adults with long-term illness but also for young people [12]-[15]. The present study is part of a larger project studying health and wellbeing using person-centred, web-based learning in children with severe urogenital, urological and bowel malformations [16] [17]. Findings from the studies in this project are qualitative in design and show the development of the intervention. The use of SKYPE for interviewing children was also evaluated. This method can be used in the child’s home and is convenient for both the child and the family. The ability to use the body language also facilitated the understanding of the conversation, particularly in the youngest children. The intervention could identify wellbeing, resources, needs, and wishes. The children were interested and able to discuss relations, emotions and their own body. That learning had taken place was shown by realizing something new, reflecting on it, and then using the knowledge in a new context in their daily lives. The aim of the study was to investigate the effect on health/wellbeing and self-esteem, before and after oneyear intervention in children aged 3 - 7 years born with malformations in the urethra, bladder, genitals and/or bowel. The results of the intervention, person-centred, web-based learning support, are compared with the findings in a control group of healthy children.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Cancer support and rehabilitation are suggested to be an integral part of cancer care strategies. This study focuses on comparativeness of cancer support and rehabilitation programmes. The aim of this study was to analyse available cancer support and rehabilitation programmes in Sweden presented as complementary to cancer rehabilitation at cancer clinics. A multiple case study design was chosen in order to inquire the small number of existing supportive and rehabilitative cancer programmes. Based on the structures, processes and outcomes of the nine included programmes, three types of cancer support and rehabilitation programmes were identified: multimodal rehabilitation, comprehensive cancer support and art therapy. Cancer support and rehabilitation programmes offer a variety of activities and therapies which are highly valuable and relevant for people with cancer. The typology of cancer support and rehabilitation programmes and comparability between programmes need further inquiry.

- Objective The aim of the study was to explore the communication tools that child healthcare nurses can use during home visits to families when language barriers exist. Design Qualitative study using data collected from focus group sessions. Sample Six semi-structured focus group interviews with twenty nurses in child healthcare services. Measurements The results were analyzed with a thematic content analysis. Results The analysis resulted in two themes: Using pictures as support in the conversation, with subthemes Not using pictures as support, Wanting to know how to use pictures as support, Pictures as support for invitations, Different types of pictures as support, and Alternative means of communication with the subthemes Possibilities of using an interpreter, Obstacles to using an interpreter, Mixed communication. Conclusion If language barriers are present during home visits, decision-making nurses in Child Health Care (CHC) put families in an unequal position when communicating with them. These results point to a need for more education, guidelines and support regarding alternative and augmentative communication (AAC) tools and structures to assist in overcoming language barriers.

- Objectives: To gain insight into children's health-related knowledge and understanding of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV2) and COVID-19, and measures adopted to mitigate transmission. Design: A child-centred qualitative creative element embedded in an online mixed-methods survey of children aged 7-12 years. Setting: Children participated in the study in six countries - the UK, Australia, Sweden, Brazil, Spain and Canada. Method: A qualitative creative component, embedded in an online survey, prompted children to draw and label a picture. Children were recruited via their parents using the researchers' professional social media accounts, through known contacts, media and websites from health organisations within each country. Analysis of the form and content of the children's pictures took place. Results: A total of 128 children (mean age 9.2 years) submitted either a hand-drawn (n = 111) or digitally created (n = 17) picture. Four main themes were identified which related to children's health-related knowledge of (1) COVID-19 and how it is transmitted; (2) measures and actions to mitigate transmission; (3) places of safety during the pandemic; and (4) children's role in mitigating COVID-19 transmission. Conclusion: Children's pictures indicated a good understanding of the virus, how it spreads and how to mitigate transmission. Children depicted their actions during the pandemic as protecting themselves, their families and wider society.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Background: Providing nursing care for patients and relatives requires a great effort from a nurse. It is therefore important for the nurse to have the opportunity to reflect on the caring acts included in process-oriented nursing supervision (PRONS). The overall objective of the nursing supervision is to support the professional development identity, competences, skills and ethics in different situations in nursing care. Aim: To investigate nurses’ experiences of the model of purging, playing and learning (PPL) according to Eriksson theory in a (PRONS) related to strengthen safe care, quality and professional development. Method: A qualitative study with individual interviews and the data was analyzed using qualitative interpretive content analysis. Participants: All eleven registered participated nurses were from southwestern Sweden and worked in different hospital units. Ethical Considerations: The study carried out in accordance with the ethical guidelines laid down in the Helsinki Dec-laration and according to the recommendations of the regional ethics com-mittee. Findings: Three categories were identified, valuable purging in the process, responsive playing and awareness of learning. The study found that by participating in PRONS the nurses had developed new approaches with different “tools” when difficult situations occurred in daily nursing practice. Conclusion: PRONS with the model PPL has an important role to support nurses in daily nursing practice. The study highlights that there are residual successful effects after PRONS for the nurses in managing care situations that experienced strengthen quality in care and professional development.

- The purpose was to illuminate preschool children’s experiences of learning from a web-based intervention comprising person-centred learning support. A qualitative method was chosen based on open-ended interviews with ten children born with urogenital or bowel malformation. The data were analysed using qualitative content analysis. Two main categories and eight subcategories were identified. The findings show that the participants remembered the web preschool with pleasure and thought it had been useful. The children were able to express what they found important and in the conversations they easily associated the intervention with events in their daily life. Most of the children in this present study could manage toilet visits by themselves but worried about the standard in the school toilets. Their own integrity was important with regard to toilet matters and they wanted privacy for their visits.

- The repercussions of the COVID-19 pandemic on children's lives deserve attention. This study aimed to assess the prevalence of anxiety among Brazilian children and its associated factors during social distancing during COVID-19. We used a cross-sectional design with an online survey from April to May 2020 in Brazil. We included children aged 6-12 years and their guardians. The Children's Anxiety Questionnaire (CAQ; scores 4-12) and the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS; scores 0-10) were used to measure anxiety. We enrolled 157 girls and 132 boys, with a mean age of 8.84 (±2.05) years; 88.9% of respondents were mothers. Based on CAQ ≥ 9, the prevalence of anxiety was 19.4% (n = 56), and higher among children with parents with essential jobs and those who were social distancing without parents. In logistic regression, the following variables were associated with higher CAQ scores: social distancing without parents; more persons living together in home; and education level of guardians. Based on NRS > 7, the prevalence of anxiety was 21.8% (n = 63); however, no associations with NRS scores were found with the investigated variables. These findings suggest the necessity of implementing public health actions targeting these parents and their children at the population level.
