It turns out that people who according to the questionnaire YFAS meet the diagnostic criteria for dependence on food, show more comorbidity of other disorders such as binge eating, depressive, or ADHD.

Syfte: Syftet med studien var att belysa sjuksköterskors upplevelser av att vårda patienter med samsjuklighet avseende psykisk ohälsa och beroende. Metod: Litteraturstudie med induktiv och kvalitativ ansats. Sökningar genomfördes med systematiskt tillvägagångssätt i databaserna Cinahl, PubMed och PsycInfo. Efter kvalitetsgranskning inkluderades tio artiklar som därefter analyserades utifrån Graneheim & Lundmans metod för kvalitativ innehållsanalys. Resultat: Analysen resulterade i två huvudteman, Kompetens och Organisation. Kompetensmed fyra subteman; terminologi, kunskap, vårdrelation och attityder. Organisation med fyrasubteman; riktlinjer, samverkan, stöd och säkerhet. Slutsats: Av resultaten framgår att sjuksköterskor upplever att de saknar tillräcklig kompetensför att vårda denna patientgrupp. Resultaten belyser vikten av gemensam terminologi, kunskap om samsjuklighet, vårdrelationer präglade av genuin omsorg samt respektfulla attityder. Sjuksköterskor upplever även bristande organisatoriska förhållanden. Resultaten belyser vikten av tydligare riktlinjer, gynnsammare förutsättningar för samverkan mellan psykiatri- och beroendevård, ökat stöd genom riktade insatser och resurser samt en säker vårdmiljö. Författarna föreslår ytterligare forskning avseende såväl sjuksköterskors sompatienters upplevelser av vård vid samsjuklighet.
