Bakgrund: Tidigare forskning visar att patienter värdesätter en god kommunikation som grundar sig på humanitära inslag av respekt, värdighet, genuinhet och värme. Patienterna värdesätter även att ha sjuksköterskor närvarande under livets slutskede. Det framgår även att anhöriga upplevde en lättnad när patienterna blev omhändertagna av sjuksköterskorna. En uppskattning fanns under sjuksköterskornas omvårdnadsnärvaro då en ömsesidig anknytning främjades. Syfte: Att beskriva sjuksköterskors upplevelser av palliativ vård under livets slutskede. Metod: En systematisk litteraturstudie med beskrivande syntes. Analysering av tio artiklar presenteras i examenarbetets resultat. Resultat: Efter analys framkom två teman: Upplevelser av olika känslor och uppleva värdefulla möten med patienter och anhöriga. Sjuksköterskors upplevelser beskrivs där totalt sex subteman identifierats. Slutsats: Viljan av att kunna göra mer under livets slutskede handlade om att kunna vara närvarande för patienter och anhöriga. Att kontinuerligt kunna utvecklas som sjuksköterska och att kommunikation är viktigt att upprätthålla. Upplevelser av bristande vård kunde handla om konflikter med anhöriga, hög arbetsbelastning och om bristande kunskap i sjuksköterskans profession. / Background: Previous research shows that patients value good communication that is based on humanitarian elements of respect, dignity, genuineness and warmth. Patients also value having nurses present during the end of life. It also appears that relatives experienced a sense of relief when the patients were cared for by the nurses. An appreciation existed during the nursing presence of the nurses when a mutual connection was promoted. Purpose: To describe nurses' experiences of palliative care during the end of life. Method: A systematic literature study with descriptive synthesis. Analysis of ten articles is presented in the results of the thesis. Results: After analysis, two themes emerged: Experiences of different emotions and experiencing valuable meetings with patients and relatives. Nurses' experiences are described where a total of six subthemes have been identified. Conclusion: The desire to be able to do more during the final stage of life was about being able to be present for patients and relatives. To be able to continuously develop as a nurse and that it is important to maintain communication. Experiences of lack of care could be about conflicts with relatives, high workload and about a lack of knowledge in the nursing profession.

Saljii, M & Nylander, R. Sjuksköterskans upplevelse av att möta familjer inom barnonkologin - en kvalitativ intervjustudie. En kvalitativ intervjustudie. Examensarbete i omvårdnad 15 högskolepoäng. Malmö universitet: Fakulteten för hälsa och samhälle, institutionen för vårdvetenskap, 2023.   Bakgrund: När ett barn drabbas av cancer påverkas hela familjen. Behandlingen är lång och familjen tillbringar stor del av sin tid på sjukhus. Varje familj är unik vilket gör varje möte unikt. Sjuksköterskan bör arbeta utifrån både ett barncentrerat och ett familjecentrerat förhållningssätt. Sjuksköterskor möter dessa familjer under en lång tid under barnets sjukdomstid vilket gör att det finns ett behov av ökad medvetenhet och kunskap för att kunna möta familjer inom barnonkologin.   Syftet: Syftet med studien var att belysa sjuksköterskans upplevelse av att möta familjer inom barnonkologin. Metod: Datainsamlingen genomfördes genom semistrukturerade intervjuer med yrkesverksamma sjuksköterskor (n=10) med erfarenhet inom barnonkologi. Intervjuerna genomfördes digitalt (n=8) och fysiskt (n=2). Respondenterna rekryterades genom ett bekvämlighetsurval som därefter analyserades utifrån en kvalitativ innehållsanalys. Resultat: Genomförd analys resulterade i fyra huvudkategorier som belyser sjuksköterskans upplevelse i mötet med familjen inom barnonkologin; Att känna motstridiga känslor, Att känna sig som en del av familjen, Att möta en familj i kris, Att inte förstå varandra. Konklusion: Sjuksköterskorna upplever svårigheter i sitt möte med familjer där det förekommer språkförbristningar samt vid motstridiga känslor i jämförelse med familjen. Det önskas en ökad tillgänglighet av medicinskt utbildade tolkar, att tolkar finns på plats, samt en ökad kunskap och fler redskap för att kunna möta familjerna i olika skeden inom barnonkologin. / Saljii, M & Nylander, R.

Nästan hälften av landets enskilda skogsägare finns i Götaland och tillsammans äger de nära 80% av den produktiva skogsmarken i denna region. Flera studier har undersökt den enskilde skogsägarens mål och handlingar men ofta saknas djupare kunskap om vad som ligger bakom dessa mål och hur eventuella hinder och utmaningar påverkar dem. I denna studie genomfördes 11 kvalitativa intervjuer med enskilda skogsägare i Kronobergs län. Resultatet visade att alla skogsägare hade i genomsnitt fem olika mål med sitt skogsbruk och att ett mål kunde ha flera olika motiv. De hinder eller utmaningar som nämndes rörde många gånger faktorer som storm, klimatförändringar, skadedjur, skadesvampar, vilt, politiska beslut och EU- regleringar. Generellt kommenterades hinder eller eventuella utmaningar som faktorer skogsägarna var medvetna om och tog hänsyn till men som ej utgjorde någon större källa till oro.

This qualitative study investigates the reasons behind three upper-secondary English teachers’ choices regarding suitable fiction for their students, how they engage students in reading, and what they think motivates students to read. It also investigates eight students’ motivation toward reading. This study also aims to provide some insight into how the criteria behind the reading lists can be adapted to stimulate the students’ interest in reading. The data were gathered through semi-structured interviews with the teachers and students, respectively. The results of this study suggest that one possible way to increase motivation for reading is the use of different genres and methods.

Background: There is limited research on how web-based, point-of-care, evidence-based medicine (EBM) tools, such as evidence summaries, are being implemented and used in developing countries. Objectives: To investigate accessibility, use, and impact of an online EBM knowledge dissemination portal in orthopaedic surgery. To explore whether receiving daily targeted evidence summaries results in more frequent use of an EBM tool compared with receiving general weekly reports. To identify and explain the barriers and benefits of a point-of-care resource in the Indian context. Methods: Forty-four orthopaedic surgeons in Pune, India, were provided free access to OrthoEvidence (OE), a for-profit, online EBM knowledge dissemination portal. Participants were subsequently randomized to an Intervention group receiving daily targeted evidence summaries or a Control group receiving general weekly summaries. This study employed an explanatory sequential mixed methods design that incorporated two questionnaires, OE usage data, and semi-structured interviews to gain insight into the surgeons’ usage, perceptions and impact of OE. Results: There were no observable differences in OE usage between the Intervention and Control groups. OE was deemed to be comprehensive, practical, useful, and applicable to clinical practice by the majority of surgeons. The exit survey data revealed no differences between groups’ perceptions of the OE tool. Semi-structured interviews revealed barriers to keeping up with evidence that included limited access to relevant medical literature (limited internet connection, lack of time, minimal access to medical journals) and limited incentive to keep up with it (limited decision-making powers for residents, textbook-based residency curriculum, lack of research methods knowledge, limited context-specific research). Changing trauma practices at the hospital were noted following the intervention. Recommendations: The practice of EBM and the use of point-of-care tools in India can be promoted by investing in adequate electronic infrastructure (improvements to internet access) and by integrating EBM into training programs and surgical cultures. / Thesis / Master of Science (MSc)

The aim of this study is to understand how co-branding can be strategically implemented and its relevance in small business customer relationships. The study serves as a guide for small businesses striving to strengthen their brand and improve their customer relationships through strategic utilization of co-branding. By enhancing knowledge about co-branding as a strategy, businesses can identify opportunities and challenges of successfully implementing the strategy in their operations. The theoretical foundations of the study include areas of brand equity, co-branding and relationship marketing. Using a qualitative method and across-sectional study design, we conducted semi-structured interviews with five companies and seven consumers to obtain multiple valuable perspectives and viewpoints on the research topic. Based on the empirical research, the findings indicate that consumers value quality, company values, long-term relationships, personalized offers, and trust in brands. Consumers also view brand collaborations positively but emphasize the importance of clear objectives and beneficial partnerships. The companies reported that collaborations can provide broader reach, expand the target audience, increase market share and sales, and facilitate insights sharing and trust building. The prospects for successful collaborations highlights long-term commitment and strong relationships as key components for successful partnerships. Based on the previous mentioned information and the study’s results, the conclusion is that the establishment and management of brand equity play a central role in creating a stable customer base, requiring strategic implementation of the brand process early on to effectively communicate the brand and its identity. Small businesses have several advantages that gives them opportunities to implement co-branding as a strategy, where they can contribute with significant resources to other larger businesses with an interest in exchange through exposure. In relation to their customers, the importance of quality, long-term commitment, trust and strong values is emphasized as factors that need to remain stable in the implementation of a co-branding strategy.
