Tuberkulosens härjningar i världen har drabbat miljontals människor genom åren. Bland denna statistikkan även Sverige kring 1800- och 1900-talet ses ha drabbats hårt. samhällsförändringar utifrånindustrialisering och urbanisering skapade nya förutsättningar för spridning av sjukdomen, detta blevmärkbart ur ett folkhälsoperspektiv. Krafttag mot tuberkulosens framfart i Sverige inleddes i början av1900-talet och flertalet av de krafter som stod bakom detta arbete var ideella organisationer. I Värmlandslän sammanträdde Arvika förening mot tuberkulos officiellt första gången 1907. Då med målet attbekämpa tuberkulosen i Arvika både ur ett direkt och ett långsiktigt perspektiv. Det direkta perspektivetvar en preventiv implementering där dispensärverksamhet var den främsta insatsen. Det långsiktigaperspektivet som fanns inom föreningen var byggandet av någon typ av tuberkuloshem – vilket islutändan resulterar i uppförandet av ett sanatorium i Arvika 1912, då i samarbete med officiellamyndigheter och organ.

Undersökningen ämnar lyfta fram Arvika förening mot tuberkulos ideella arbete kring sjukdomenmellan åren 1907 – 1912. Hur har Arvika förening mot tuberkulos agerat som en aktör i kampen mottuberkulos i Arvika? / Tuberculosis ravages in the world have affected millions of people over the years. Among thesestatistics, Sweden can also be seen to have been hit hard during the 1800s and 1900s. Societal changesbased on industrialization and urbanization created new conditions for the spread of the disease, thisbecame noticeable from a public health perspective. Force action against the profess of tuberculosis inSweden began en masse during the early 1900s and a big part of the work was conducted by non-profitorganizations. In the county of Värmland, Arvika förening mot tuberkulos [Arvika organization againsttuberculosis] officially met for the first time in 1907. Then with the aim of combating the tuberculosisdisease in Arvika both from a direct and a long-term perspective. The direct perspective was apreventive implementation, where dispensary activities were the foremost effort. The long-termperspective that existed within the organization was the construction of some type of tuberculosis home– which ultimately resulted in the construction of a sanatorium in Arvika in 1912, then in cooperationwith official authorities. This essay aims to highlight the organizations growth and how an increasingpublic health perspective affected how care and treatment were discussed and looked at during theperiod. The study aims to highlight Arvika förening mot tuberkulos non-profit work concerning the diseasebetween the years 1907 – 1912. How did Arvika förening mot tuberkulos act as an agent in the fightagainst tuberculosis in Arvika?

由於我國在社會、經濟、政治方面快速發展，人民普遍要求實施全民健康保險。在長達七年的規劃之下，終於在八十三年七月實施。全民健康保險法可說是我國有史以來最重要的民生法案，其不僅具有具體的福利效益和保障國民免於疾病的威脅的功能，而且更具有已邁向福利社會的具體意義。 　　隨著各國民主政治的發展，人民參與政治過程的機會和方式愈來愈多，我國全民健康保險法草案合法化過程中由於爭議極多，例如保險費負擔比例、保險機構的體制、分級轉診的部分負擔等，各個利益團體也不斷介入其中，使得全民健康保險法草案合法化過程更為熱鬧非凡，同時，也充滿了政治性和妥協性。 　　全民健康保險制度的實施，其成敗關鍵在於現制缺失的徹底消除，醫療體系的健全與效率，以及全體國民的共識與維護。任何制度的實施都會有一段陣痛期，唯有多方面加以配合，才能使全民健康保險成為可長可久的制度。

The Mobile Electronic Dispensary System (MEDS) is an indoor medical dispensary system where robots locate and travel to patients within a grid in order to deliver medication or other medical supplies based on a predefined schedule. For older people or individuals with physical or mental disabilities, it is important to ensure that medications are taken as prescribed. Missing or mixing dosages can cause unwanted and even harmful consequences. As individuals grow older or battle disabilities, it is expected that adhering to their medicine regimen will be a daily challenge without the assistance of a fulltime caregiver. Therefore, to assist individuals in maintaining their independence, MEDS ensures the proper medicine is dispensed to the patient at the prescribed time and dosage. At the core of MEDS is a scheduler that maintains the medicines to be dispensed, including the times and dosages. Once a scheduled time arrives to deliver medicine to a patient, MEDS instructs the appropriate robot to wake up, locate the patient within a defined grid, and then travel to the patient and deliver the medicine. Upon receiving the delivery, the patient will accept the medicine physically and then update their mobile device, informing MEDS that the medicine was successfully delivered. At this time, the robot will return to its home base within the grid. The patients are within the confines of a building where GPS is not a viable solution to track items to pinpoint accuracy. Therefore, an indoor location based system with beacons and listeners are required in order to define a grid and enable robots to locate and travel to the patient. This paper defines and details the programs, database, algorithms, and hardware of MEDS using the Cricket Indoor Location System and iRobot Creates. / text
