Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Sexual health problems are common for women with Rheumatoid Arthritis, RA. Sexual health is covered in the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF) by two different fields: sexual function and intimate relationships, which are included in the ICF core sets for RA. Most patients with RA are female, and there are differences concerning sexual health between women and men with RA.The aim of this study was to explore the literature concerning the effects of RA on the sexual health of female patients, and also recommend solutions to improve the sexual health of women with RA.Sexual health problems can occur before, during and after sexual activities, and can affect women's sexual health in different perspectives. The investigated areas concerning female RA-patients and sexual are general sexual problems, sexual satisfaction, sexual desire, sexual performance, and sexual functioning. RA affects sexual health as a result of pain, reduced joint mobility, fatigue, depression and body image alterations. The investigated material provides few solutions to sexual health problems of female RA-patients. The most commonly mentioned solution is increased information and communication between health professionals and patients. Some of the studies recommend physiotherapy. Further research is needed to understand which types of intervention can help women with RA to improve their sexual health.

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Academic reading is a challenge for many students and there is therefore a need to explore opportunities to support students in reading scientific articles in English, and to understand the new knowledge in a Norwegian context and enable them to use the knowledge in their future professional practice. This article shows how a digital tool provides new opportunities for asynchronous interaction between students about subject content and syllabus, and how this can be used to promote academic reading, professional learning and at the same time increase student interaction.

Bokrecension av boken “Didaktisk dialog i högre utbildning”
- 2022
-
In: UNIPED. - : Universitetsforlaget. - 1893-8981. ; 45:2, s. 165-167
-
Review (other academic/artistic)abstract
- Från introduktionen: Att det skrivs böcker om didaktik är inte något nytt, men en bok med fokus på den didaktiska dialogen är däremot ett nytänkande som gör boken extra intressant för universitetslärare. Att få tillfälle att ta del av andra universitetslärares didaktiska reflektioner var den avgörande faktorn för att läsa boken, och under läsningen fortsatte reflektionerna att ge egna reflektioner och intresse för nästkommande fallbeskrivning. Boken var lätt att ta till sig, men även att fortsätta reflektera kring efter läsningen. Kanske eftersom det var lätt att knyta an till de fall som beskrevs i boken och de känslor som kan anas hos fallförfattarna i förhållande till de beskrivna situationerna. Bokens redaktörer, Magnus Levinsson, Lill Langelotz och Malin Löfstedt, har samlat ett intressant och brett urval av fall med tillhörande reflektioner i respektive kapitel.

Co-creation of a working model to improve sexual health for persons living with rheumatological diseases
- 2020
-
In: Open Journal of Rheumatology and Autoimmune Diseases. - : Scientific Research Publishing. - 2163-9914 .- 2164-005X. ; 10:3, s. 109-124
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Background: Sexual health needs are insufficiently met for persons living with rheumatological diseases and it is necessary to create better ways to meet these needs. Objective: To co-create a working model to improve sexual health for persons living with rheumatological diseases, that can be used by rheumatological teams in regular rheumatology practice. Design: This study applied a co-creation design with three key features: 1) it took a systems perspective with emergent multiple interactive entities; 2) the research process was viewed as a creative endeavour with strong links to design, while human imagination and the individual experience of patient and staff were at the core of the creative design effort; 3) the process of the co-creative efforts was as important as the generated product. Results: A model defining the role of the patient, the professionals, and the team in optimizing sexual health for persons living with rheumatological diseases was co-created. The model can be seen as a practice guideline, which includes the support needed from and to each participant in the process of promoting sexual health, while being within the professional scope of the professionals’ knowledge and capacity, and in line with the needs of the persons living with rheumatological diseases. Discussion and Conclusions: The co-creative work process identified crucial factors in promoting sexual health, resulting in a useful model for patients, professionals and teams. Co-creation was experienced to be a useful research design to improve rheumatological care, through valuing and using the competence of all research members equally.

Co-production: long-term conditions
- 2019
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- This seminar focuses on co-production in physiotherapy practice and the co-constructive learning processes in this professional development. Co-production between physiotherapists and persons with chronic disease exists, but needs to be further acknowledged. Examples and discussions show how coproduction can be used in clinical practice to improve quality of physiotherapy service and how persons with chronic diseases want to be involved. The seminar will define the concepts of co-production as well as co-constructive learning processes. Co-production is about involving patients as equals and this seminar will involve input from persons with patient experience. We will bring forward clinical and management perspectives of coproduction in physiotherapy and show how co-production can meet present and future demands of rehabilitation needs from the population in various contexts.

Detecting decreased sexual health with MDHAQ-S
- 2013
-
In: Health (Irvine). - 1949-4998 .- 1949-5005. ; :5, s. 38-47
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- There are instruments that measure sexual function or sexual health for persons with RA, but since sexual health is a sensitive issue, the hypothesis is that it would be easier to have a standard questionnaire that could indicate the need for communication about sexual health issues instead of an extra questionnaire with more detailed questions on sexual health. The aim of the study is to find out whether sexual health difficulties can be screened by factors included in the MDHAQ-S for persons with RA. This study explores the relation between factors included in the MDHAQ-S and the Sexual Health Questionnaire (QSH) using a mixed methods design combining quantitative and qualitative data. The MDHAQ-S covers sexual health issues, not only by using the question on sexual health, but also on other factors included in the questionnaire such as increased pain, fatigue, depression, anxiety, physical capacity, level of physical activity and body weight. To explore decreased sexual arousal, decreased sexual satisfaction and decreased sexual well-being, in-depth interviews must be held with persons with RA, either using a sexual health questionnaire or in a clinical interview.

Education for sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) : a mapping of SRHR-related content in higher education in health care, police, law and social work in Sweden
- 2019
-
In: Sex Education. - : Taylor & Francis. - 1468-1811 .- 1472-0825. ; 19:6, s. 720-729
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Knowledge of sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) by health care, police, legal and social work professionals has been shown to be insufficient. This lack of competence is likely to affect the quality of services. The aim of this study was to describe SRHR indicators in educational programmes in health care, police, legal and social work higher education in Sweden. A text-based analysis was conducted of written material from all educational programmes in law, midwifery, nursing, occupational therapy, physiotherapy, police work, psychology, social work and undergraduate medicine (93 educational programmes at 27 universities and university colleges). Representation of different SRHR indicators varied, but most were poorly covered in the educational programmes. Existing educational programmes lack comprehensiveness in their coverage of SRHR and are unequal both within and between the professions and universities. This situation creates the risk of inequalities in SRHR competence and suggests that needs within this field may be unmet. There is an urgent need therefore to enhance the presence of SRHR in health care, social work and law enforcement education in Sweden.

Ethics and sexual health : Exploration of the ethical code of conduct for physiotherapists concerning sexual health in clinical practice
- 2019
-
In: Physiotherapy Theory and Practice. - : Taylor & Francis. - 0959-3985 .- 1532-5040. ; 35:11, s. 1015-1026
-
Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Physiotherapists have an important role in sexual health, but there are specific ethical considerations regarding sexuality and the practice of physiotherapy which require serious consideration. This article aims to illustrate how the professional ethical code of physiotherapy can serve as a tool for ethical clinical reasoning regarding sexual health in clinical physiotherapy practice. We analyse the ethical codes for physical therapy, in relation to a definition of sexual health and the declaration of sexual rights. The analysis outlines several ethical considerations crucial in dealing with sexual health, while also acknowledging the critical role of cultural context in any ethical analysis. We conclude that physiotherapists need to practise ethical reasoning and that the ethical code of physiotherapy can act as a point of departure for reflection on thought-provoking ethical dilemmas to improve the practice of physiotherapy and support clients’ overall health.
