Patientens upplevelse av stressfaktorer på en akutmottagning : En litteraturstudie / The patients experience of stress factors at an emergencydepartment : A literature studyJonasson, Elin, Korsell, Lovisa January 2017 (has links)
Akut insjuknande patienter söker vård via akutmottagningen där bedömning av patientens hälsotillstånd sker vilket benämns som triagering. Akutmottagningens miljö utmärks av ett hektiskt arbetstempo som kan upplevas främmande och skrämmande för den inkomna patienten. Den stressiga miljön kan påverka det fysiska, psykiska och emotionella välmåendet och trigga stresspåslaget hos patienterna. Syftet med litteraturstudien var att undersöka patientens upplevelse av stressfaktorer på en akutmottagning. Metoden genomfördes som en litteraturstudie genom strukturerade sökningar efter vetenskapliga artiklar som analyserades och sammanställdes i ett resultat vilket skapade en ökad förståelse för problemområdet. Utifrån tio resultatartiklar genererades fyra teman som berörde stressfaktorer ur olika aspekter. De teman som uppkom var Miljöns påverkan, Psykisk påverkan, Väntetid och brist på information samt Sjuksköterskans påverkan. En betydande slutsats från resultatet är att sjuksköterske - patientrelationen är en viktig del i att förbättra patientens upplevelse och för att patienten ska känna förtroende, tillit samt solidaritet till sjuksköterskan. Lärdom från litteraturstudien kan utvinnas och sjuksköterskan kan erhålla bättre förutsättningar att bemöta patienten. / Acutely ill patients seek care through the emergency department, where assessment of the patient's health status occurs which is called triage. The environment of the emergency department is characterized by a hectic work pace that may feel foreign and frightening for the incoming patient. The stressful environment may influence the physical, mental and emotional well-being of the patient and trigger stress. The aim of this study was to investigate the patient's experience of stress factors at an emergency department. The method emerged as a literature study through structured searches for scientific articles, which were analyzed and compiled in a result that created a greater understanding of the problem. Based on the results of ten articles, four themes were generated which referred to stressors from different aspects. The themes that emerged was the environmental impact, psychological impact, waiting time and lack of information and the nurse impact. A significant conclusion from the result is that the nurse–patient relationship is an important part of improving the patient experience and make the patient feel confidence, trust and solidarity to the nurse. Knowledge from the literature study can be extracted which may improve the nurse’s encounter with the patient.

Spectroscopy Techniques for quantification of Microorganisms in Environmental SamplesMondaca Fernandez, Iram January 2005 (has links)
Microbiological monitoring of water is of primary importance for preservation of human health, particularly in an arid zone like the U.S. southwest. In this work, infrared spectroscopic methods were developed to identify and quantify microorganisms present in water and water-related environmental samples. Focus of the work was primarily on evaluating the impact of various sterilization methods on microorganism physiology as gauged by the non-invasive approach of infrared spectroscopy. This work demonstrates that FTIR techniques can be used to identify changes in the physiology of microorganisms and that for heat treatment, a correlation between spectral changes and the viability of microorganisms can be made.

Factors related to stress in nursing studentsShultz, Marie E. 01 May 2011 (has links)
The purpose of this review of literature was to explore and critically analyze relevant literature regarding stress factors and the consequences of stress in nursing students. Findings from this review of literature aimed to provide a better understanding of stress factors and the physical and psychological impact of stress on nursing students. Information was collected from the Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature, PsycINFO, and MEDLINE- EBSCOhost databases to explore what research has been conducted and to assess the current knowledge base. Analysis of the literature indicated that nursing students reported experiencing increased levels of stress during the academic year. Nursing students reported higher levels of stress in conjunction with elevated external stressors, including increased responsibilities and course requirements. Analysis of the findings suggested that factors related to stress in nursing students arose from clinical sources, academic sources, and personal sources. Further analysis indicated that experiencing elevated levels of stress had a negative impact on the student. Increased levels of stress, combined with poor coping mechanisms, may lead to poor academic performance and burn-out among nursing students. Future research may evaluate means to reduce stress levels and mitigate stress in nursing students through targeting specific causative factors. Findings from this review of literature aim to influence student management of stress.

Stressfaktorers inverkan på innovativt beteendeEklund, Ellen, Knezevic, Marija January 2017 (has links)
Syfte: Studien syftar till att få fördjupad förståelse för hur stressfaktorer kan påverka individens innovativa beteende positivt. Metod: Studien tillämpar en kvalitativ ansats med semistrukturerade intervjuer. Totalt genomfördes elva intervjuer på Volvo Group Trucks Technology samt en intervju och ett kompletterande samtal med två tidigare anställda. Intervjusvaren har analyserats med tematisk analys Resultat & slutsats: Nio stressfaktorer identifierades vilka skapar stress; krav, tidspress, kontroll, support, roll, kultur, riskvilja, sociala medier och mål. Studien identifierade också fem påverkansfaktorer som kan påverka utvecklingen av positiv stress; personlighet, problemlösande, självledarskap, erfarenhet och motivation. Stressfaktorer i kombination med påverkansfaktorer kan bidra till positiv stress hos individen och leda till ökat innovativt beteende. Förslag till fortsatt forskning: Studien efterfrågar mer kvalitativ forskning på stressfaktorer och innovativt beteende. Stress- och påverkansfaktorer som identifierades i studien bör undersökas vidare. Framtida studier bör även undersöka stressfaktorer i relation till innovationsbeteendets alla tre faser. Framtida studier bör också inkludera fler kvinnor och vidare forskning på hur organisationer kan organisera för innovation. Uppsatsens bidrag: Studiens främsta bidrag är Modell 2: Stressors Innovative Development, som visar hur stressfaktorer inverkar på innovativt beteende. Modellen ger stöd till ledare som önskar öka anställdas innovativa beteende, för att öka företagets konkurrenskraft. Modellen ger kunskap om vikten av de personliga förmågorna för att positiv stress ska utvecklas, och påverka det innovativa beteendet positivt. / Aim: This study aims to provide a deeper understanding of how stressors affect the individual innovative behavior positively. Method: The study applies a qualitative approach with semi structured interviews. In total, eleven interviews were conducted within Volvo Group Trucks Technology and one interview and a complementary conversation with two former employees were carried out. Interview responses have been analyzed with thematic analysis. Result & Conclusions: Nine stress creating stressors were identified; demands, time pressure, control, support, roll, culture, risk appetite, distraction and goals. The study also identified five individual capabilities, which are termed as influencing factors; personality, problem solving, personal responsibility, experience, motivation. The study finds that stress can lead to increased innovative behavior when stressors are combined with influence factors contributing to positive stress in the individual. Suggestions for future research: To further increase the understanding of stressors and innovative behavior, more qualitative research within this field is necessary. Stressors and influencing factors, being identified in this study, should be studied in more detail. Future research should aim to study innovative behavior and stress for all three phases of Innovative Behavior. Further studies within this field should also include more women and research on how organizations can organize for innovation. Contribution of the thesis: The study's main contribution is the Model 2: Stressors ID, which shows how stressors affect innovative behavior. The model provides support for leaders who wish to enhance employees' innovative behavior to increase the company's competitiveness. The model provides knowledge about the importance of personal capabilities in order for positive stress to evolve and influence the innovative behavior positively.

Using the Adolescent Stress Identification Inventory (ASII) to Identify Stress in Grade 10 and Grade 11 Girls, at a Private Highschool in Johannesburg.Rose, Lauren Ann 14 November 2006 (has links)
Student Number : 9604621R -
MEd (Ed Psyc) research report -
School of Education -
Faculty of Humanities / The Adolescent Stress Identification Inventory (ASII) was developed specifically to
identify stress in South African adolescents. It consists of structured questions in
response to which the subject is required to rate a statement according to a given
scale. The purpose of this research was to assess the usefulness of the ASII as a
structured inventory for identifying stress in adolescent girls who attend a private high
school in Johannesburg. The sample of adolescents used in this research comprised
only of English speaking girls but with the added dimension of the different race
groupings namely White, Black, Chinese, Indian and Coloured. This allowed the
researcher to compare the stressors identified by Kruger (1992) with the comparative
female age cohort selected in this sample and identify and compare the stressors
amongst the different racial groups. Understanding what types of things adolescents
find stressful in relation to their stage of development is important in helping the
adolescent cope with their “daily hassles” and assists teachers, parents and
psychologists in treating and preventing the symptoms of stress. Erikson’s
psychosocial theory of development is used as a basis for understanding the complex
interaction and integration of physical, psychological and social factors that
characterize adolescence as a period of development. The findings from this research
suggest that the stressors identified by grade 10 and grade 11 girls, can be viewed in
terms of the factors associated with the ASII, namely societal demands, self-concept,
future expectations, relations and positive experience. The ASII was able to identify
stressors and detect the similarities and differences of the types of concerns that the
adolescents from the different race groups perceived as stressful. It is recommended
that the ASII is used in conjunction with a qualitative means of acquiring more
information about the respondents stress experience.

Stress Factors that Impact Saudi Students’ Academic Performance in American Higher Education Institutions: An Analysis of Faculty, Administrators’, and Students’ PerceptionsAlsharari, Fahad 20 May 2019 (has links)
The purpose of this mixed-methods study was to examine the stressors that Saudi students experience while studying in the United States and their impact on academic performance. The study found a considerable amount of stress as a consequence of cultural differences, lack of social integration, the academic environment, and inadequate orientation. Based on the findings, the researcher recommended several strategies for improving the experiences of Saudi students at American universities. These recommendations include better interactions between the staff/administrators and students, more social events for the Saudi students and their families, and more opportunities to interact with American fellows inside and outside the classroom. The researcher also recommends that colleges and universities improve the relevance of course and program assignments for the Saudi students as well as the administrative support, mentoring relationships, and orientation programs they provide to these students.

Sjuksköterskors vardag : Vad skapar arbetsrelaterad stress för sjuksköterskor / Nurses workday – What creates work-related stress amongnurses?Hellgren, Emelie, Hägglund, Marlene January 2015 (has links)
Stress är ett ökande tillståndvilket bidrar till fler sjukskrivningar inom sjuksköterskeyrket. För att göra organisationer mer medvetna om sjuksköterskors aktuella situation är det av vikt att belysa deras upplevelser av stress på arbetet. Syftet var att beskriva faktorer vilkabidrar till att sjuksköterskor upplever arbetsrelaterad stress. Studien är utförd som en litteraturstudie. Fem rubriker framkomi resultatet vilka var: Stressfaktorer vilka påverkar det patientnära arbetet och patientsäkerheten, stressfaktorer vilka påverkar sjuksköterskors profession och privatliv, stressfaktorer i den kollegiala miljön, fysisk och psykisk påverkan av arbetsrelaterad stress och organisatoriska orsaker till stressfaktorer. Det sjuksköterskor upplever som stressande är brist på stöd, tidsbrist, minskad kontroll över sin arbetssituation, avbrott i arbetet och hög arbetsbelastning. De här faktorerna har en bidragande del till varför sjuksköterskor upplever sig utmattade. Utmattning är en orsak till varför sjuksköterskor blir sjukskrivna. Det är av betydelse att sjuksköterskor får utbildning inom stresshantering. Det är även viktigt att det forskas mer inom området för att få reda på varför sjuksköterskor upplever arbetsrelaterad stress och vad det finns för åtgärder. Det behövs även ett bättre samarbete mellan ledning och sjuksköterskor för att minska de arbetsrelaterade stressfaktorerna. Det behövs även ett bättre samarbete och mer stödmellan ledning och sjuksköterskor för att minska de arbetsrelaterade stressfaktorerna.
