Ledarskap för ett hållbart arbetsliv : Teknikstrategier och arbetslivets gränser
- 2023
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Användning av allt mindre mobiler och mer lättflyttade datorer gör att gränsen mellan vårt hem och vårt arbete gradvis suddas ut. Användandet av digital teknik möjliggör för skolor att finnas på flera platser, en utveckling som tydliggjorts under pandemin. Sociala medier har för många skolanställda blivit en naturlig del både i det pedagogiska arbetet och i den dagliga kontakten med varandra, elever och vårdnadshavare. Hur skolan formeras i en digital verklighet är därför en nyckelfråga för framtiden.För att bidra till en bättre förståelse för digitaliseringens påverkan på arbetslivet och arbetsmiljön har vi genomfört ett forskningsprojekt med titel ”Ledarskap för ett hållbart digitalt arbetsliv: Teknikstrategier och arbetslivets gränser”. Projektet har finansierats av AFA Försäkring inom deras FoU-program “Digitaliseringens effekter på arbetsmiljön”.Projektets syfte har varit att analysera hur styrning och ledarskap kan utformas i skolan för att tillvarata nyttan hos sociala medier och samtidigt skapa en hållbar digital arbetsmiljö för medarbetare och chefer.Våra resultat bygger på ett omfattande empiriskt intervjumaterial, och ett mindre antal enkäter. Vi kan i våra resultat se att samtliga aktörer som är engagerade i skolan behöver diskutera hur man vill och bör använda sociala medier. I vissa fall kan det behövas en tydligare styrning, i andra fall kan det vara tillräckligt med en mjukare styrning med tydligt uttryckta förväntningar och levande diskussioner om hur man som lärare och skolledare ska förhålla sig till sociala medier. Sammantaget tecknas en bild där användandet av sociala medier inte bara suddar ut gränslinjerna mellan det privata och det offentliga, utan också utvidgar gränserna för den egna yrkesrollen. Berättelserna vi har fångat från olika aktörer visar på komplexiteten och svårigheten att styra sociala medier som befinner sig mellan privatlivet och arbetslivet. Vi måste därför förändra hur vi förstår skolan och skolans roll i en digital verklighet. Resultaten har spridits genom vetenskapliga artiklar, populärvetenskapliga artiklar i media och tidskrifter, samt genom möten med intressenter.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- In a digitalized society our work environment is highly integrated with our home environment making work boundless both in terms of time and space. The digital work environment risks increased stress. Based on a case study in Swedish schools we investigate how teachers experience the use of social media for work-related purposes. We do so by using the Technology Affordance and Constraints Theory to capture the affordances as well as constraints of this use. Findings show that affordances of social media in schools were increased opportunities for learning, transparency and community building. Constraints were distractions from learning, increased isolation, stress and, above all, lack of guidance in how and when to use social media. We end the paper arguing that lack of policies and guidelines governing the use of social media at work is risking an increase in boundary blurring and potentially more stress.

- BACKGROUND: The primary systemic vasculitides usually associated with autoantibodies to neutrophil cytoplasmic antigens include Wegener's granulomatosis and microscopic polyangiitis. We investigated whether exposure to cyclophosphamide in patients with generalized vasculitis could be reduced by substitution of azathioprine at remission. METHODS: We studied patients with a new diagnosis of generalized vasculitis and a serum creatinine concentration of 5.7 mg per deciliter (500 micromol per liter) or less. All patients received at least three months of therapy with oral cyclophosphamide and prednisolone. After remission, patients were randomly assigned to continued cyclophosphamide therapy (1.5 mg per kilogram of body weight per day) or a substitute regimen of azathioprine (2 mg per kilogram per day). Both groups continued to receive prednisolone and were followed for 18 months from study entry. Relapse was the primary end point. RESULTS: Of 155 patients studied, 144 (93 percent) entered remission and were randomly assigned to azathioprine (71 patients) or continued cyclophosphamide (73 patients). There were eight deaths (5 percent), seven of them during the first three months. Eleven relapses occurred in the azathioprine group (15.5 percent), and 10 occurred in the cyclophosphamide group (13.7 percent, P=0.65). Severe adverse events occurred in 15 patients during the induction phase (10 percent), in 8 patients in the azathioprine group during the remission phase (11 percent), and in 7 patients in the cyclophosphamide group during the remission phase (10 percent, P=0.94 for the comparison between groups during the remission phase). The relapse rate was lower among the patients with microscopic polyangiitis than among those with Wegener's granulomatosis (P=0.03). CONCLUSIONS: In patients with generalized vasculitis, the withdrawal of cyclophosphamide and the substitution of azathioprine after remission did not increase the rate of relapse. Thus, the duration of exposure to cyclophosphamide may be safely reduced.

BIOCOMPATIBILITY AND TOLERABILITY OF A PURELY BICARBONATE-BUFFERED PERITONEAL DIALYSIS SOLUTION

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- Background: Novel peritoneal dialysis solutions are characterized by a minimal content of glucose degradation products and a neutral pH. Many studies have shown the biocompatibility of neutral lactate-buffered solutions; however, until now, the effect of purely bicarbonate-buffered solutions has not been intensively studied in vivo. Methods: This study was an open label, prospective, crossover multicenter trial to investigate the biocompatibility of a purely bicarbonate-buffered solution (bicPDF) by measuring biocompatibility parameters such as cancer antigen 125 (CA125) in peritoneal effluent. 55 patients were enrolled in the study. After a 2-week run-in phase, 53 patients could be randomized into 2 groups, starting with either standard lactate-buffered peritoneal dialysis fluid (SPDF) for 12 weeks (phase 1) and then switching to bicPDF for 12 weeks (phase 2), or vice versa. Overnight peritoneal effluents were collected at baseline and at the end of phases 1 and 2 and were tested for CA125, hyaluronic acid, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), interleukin 6 (IL-6), interferon gamma (IFN gamma), and transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-beta 1). Total ultrafiltration and residual renal function were also assessed. At the end of the study, pain during fluid exchange and dwell was evaluated using special questionnaires. Results: 34 patients completed the study; 27 of them provided data for analysis of the biocompatibility parameters. CA125 levels in overnight effluent were significantly higher with bicPDF (61.9 +/- 33.2 U/L) than with SPDF (18.6 +/- 18.2 U/L, p < 0.001). Hyaluronic acid levels were significantly lower after the use of bicPDF (185.0 +/- 119.6 ng/mL) than after SPDF (257.4 +/- 174.0 ng/mL, p = 0.013). Both TNF-alpha and TGF-beta 1 showed higher levels with the use of bicPDF than with SPDF. No differences were observed for IL-6, VEGF, or IFN gamma levels. We observed an improvement in the glomerular filtration rate with the use of bicPDF but no differences were observed for total fluid loss. Pain scores could be analyzed in 23 patients: there was no difference between the solutions. Conclusions: The use of a purely bicarbonate-buffered low-glucose degradation product solution significantly changes most of the peritoneal effluent markers measured, suggesting an improvement in peritoneal membrane integrity. Additionally, it seems to have a positive effect on residual renal function.
