Estar infectada com papilomavírus humano: vivências das mulheres e necessidades de cuidado / To be infected with human Papillomavirus: women lives and their necessities of care

Maria Elisa Wotzasek Cestari 22 October 2010 (has links)
O Papilomavírus humano (HPV) é um vírus, sexualmente transmissível, com potencialidade carcinogênica para a cérvice uterina, o que torna a infecção de mulheres pelo HPV um problema de saúde pública. Conhecer as necessidades de cuidado de mulheres infectadas pelo HPV inclui também saber suas experiências vividas durante o processo de infecção. A prevenção de doenças e a promoção de saúde ainda estão determinadas por concepções tradicionais da prática médica. É necessário pensar em um cuidado que vá além das necessidades físicas, emocionais e sociais que considere o sujeito com base em seu modo de ser no mundo e que valorize suas experiências, juntamente com suas crenças e valores. O objetivo deste estudo foi compreender a vivência das mulheres infectadas pelo HPV e conhecer quais são suas necessidades de cuidado. Tratou-se de um estudo qualitativo, com referencial da Fenomenologia existencial de Martim Heidegger. Os sujeitos foram 14 mulheres que tinham recebido o diagnóstico de HPV. As questões norteadoras foram: Como é para você estar com HPV? Conte-me sua experiência desde que soube do diagnóstico até hoje. Como está sendo a assistência que você tem recebido? Como resultado, emergiram quatro unidades temáticas: ser-aí mulher com HPV; ser-com nas relações; buscando o cuidado como solicitude e o caminho de transcendência da mulher com HPV. O referencial utilizado possibilitou melhor apreensão dos significados de estar com HPV, assim como o compartilhamento da vivência dessas mulheres em seu cotidiano. Constatou-se a necessidade de implementar ações de promoção e prevenção à saúde, que devem ser executadas por profissionais capacitados e com um perfil adequado para atenção à mulher. As mulheres devem ser encorajadas a demonstrarem suas próprias necessidades de cuidado, e as questões culturais e de gênero devem ser consideradas. É preciso que os profissionais da área da saúde avancem no cuidado com as mulheres infectadas pelo HPV, superando o trabalho restrito à racionalidade das ciências biomédicas. A informação sobre o HPV deve ser compartilhada pelas mulheres, respeitando-se suas necessidades e seu nível de compreensão. É necessário um cuidado mais efetivo e afetivo, no qual as mulheres infectadas pelo HPV exerçam um papel ativo no processo do cuidado e as interações sejam verdadeiras. / The human Papillomavirus (HPV) is a virus, sexually transmittable, with potentiality carcinogenic for the uterine cervix, making women\'s infection by the HPV a problem for the public health. To know the necessities of care of women infected by the HPV includes also knowing their experiences during the process of infection. Diseases prevention and health promotion are still determined by traditional conceptions of medical practice. It is necessary to think about a care that goes besides the physical, emotional and social necessities, that considers the individual based on of her way of being in the world and considers her experiences, beliefs and values. The objective of this study was to understand the life experience of the women infected by the HPV and to know their necessities of care. This research have had a qualitative focus, with reference to the Existential Phenomenology by Martim Heidegger. Were subjected to this research 14 women HPV positive. The research was based on these questions: What does being HPV positive mean for you? Tell me the experience that you have had since you have known you were infected until today. How is the aid that you have been receiving? As result, four thematic topics surfaced: to be there a woman with HPV; to be a woman with HPV in relationships; looking for care as solicitude and the way of transcendence of the woman with HPV. The used referential made possible a better apprehension of the meanings of being with HPV, as well as the share of the existence of these women in their daily life. The necessity of implementing health promotion and prevention actions was noted, and these actions must be executed by enabled professionals with a profile adapted for attention to the woman. The women must be encouraged to demonstrating their necessities of care themselves and questions of culture and of gender must be considered. It is necessary that professionals of the health area keep advancing in the care of women infected by the HPV, surpassing the work limited to the rationality of biomedical sciences. The information on the HPV must be shared by the women, respecting their necessities and their level of understanding. It is necessary a more effective and affectionate care, in which the women infected by the HPV play an active part in the process of the care and the interactions are true.

"A saúde do idoso sob a ótica da equipe do Programa de Saúde da Família" / The elderly´s health under the Family Health Program Team.

Simone Teresinha Protti 12 March 2003 (has links)
A saúde do idoso sob a ótica da equipe do Programa de Saúde da Família é um estudo realizado nos quatro Núcleos de Saúde da Família, do Centro de Saúde Escola da Faculdade de Medicina e Escola de Enfermagem de Ribeirão Preto, da Universidade de São Paulo. Neste trabalho procuramos compreender como os trabalhadores das equipes de saúde estão percebendo a temática do idoso no Programa de Saúde da Família, as dificuldades enfrentadas, e quais os recursos utilizados para atender a essa população. Utilizamos como referencial teórico a Transição Demográfica e Epidemiológica, as diretrizes do Ministério da Saúde para o Programa de Saúde da Família e a Política Nacional do Idoso (PNI). Na construção deste trabalho contamos com a participação de 22 (vinte e dois) profissionais de saúde, dentre eles, médicos, enfermeiros, auxiliares de enfermagem e agentes comunitários de saúde. No percurso metodológico, utilizamos a entrevista semi-estruturada, sendo a ordenação dos dados realizada através do Discurso do Sujeito Coletivo a partir da identificação das Idéias Centrais e Expressões Chave presentes nos discursos individuais. Os resultados evidenciaram que nos núcleos com maior demanda de idosos é prioridade a sua assistência, as equipes buscam alternativas para melhor atender a essa população, ou seja, na formação de grupos, visitas domiciliárias ou em parcerias com outras instituições. Já os núcleos que possuem um número menor de idosos em suas áreas de abrangência, não têm o idoso como foco principal de sua atenção, pois há o predomínio da população adulto-jovem. Contudo, priorizam os idosos acamados e integram os demais nas atividades realizadas pelos núcleos. Percebemos que existe em todos os núcleos, independentemente do número de idosos presentes, uma sensibilização geral que expressa potencialidades no trabalho e na atenção à população idosa. / The elderly’s health under the view of the Family Health Program Team is a study that was conducted in the four Family Health Nuclei of the University Health Center of the University of São Paulo at Ribeirão Preto Faculty of Medicine and the University of São Paulo at Ribeirão Preto College of Nursing. In this study, an attempt was made at understanding how the workers on the health teams perceive the elderly-related topics in the Family Health Program, the difficulties faced and what resources they search for in order to assist this population. The Demographic and Epidemiological Transition, the Guidelines from the Health Ministry for the Family Health Program and the National Policies for the Elderly (PNI) were used as theoretical frameworks. Twenty-two (22) health professionals participated in this study among whom were physicians, nurses, nursing auxiliaries and community health agents. Data were collected by means of semi-structured interviews and organized through the Collective Subject’s Discourse based on the identification of the Main Ideas and Key Expressions present in individual discourses. The results showed that there was a care priority in the nuclei with a larger number of elderly participants, the teams searched for alternatives in order to better assist this population, that is, through the formation of groups, home visits or partnerships with other institutions. However, the nuclei with a smaller number of elderly participants in their coverage areas did not have the elderly person as their main focus of attention, since there was the predominance of a young adult population. Nevertheless, they prioritized the elderly who were in bed and integrated the others in all the activities carried out by the nucleus. It was noticed that there was a general sensitization in all the nuclei, regardless of the number of elderly people present, which demonstrates the potentialities in the work and care to individuals at this age range.

Estudo exploratório sobre a ocorrência de perda involuntária de urina entre puérperas de uma maternidade filantrópica de município paulista / Occurrence of involuntary urine loss: exploratory study between puerperae in a philantropic maternity of a city in São Paulo State - Brazil

Miquelina Johann Albrescht 26 June 2006 (has links)
A incontinência urinária é um sintoma que atinge predominantemente as mulheres e constitui-se em um problema de saúde pública. O puerpério é uma fase frágil do ciclo grávido?puerperal que nem sempre recebe a devida atenção por parte dos profissionais de saúde e, a literatura nacional sobre sua prevalência neste período é escassa. Dessa maneira, este estudo teve por objetivo geral: estudar a ocorrência da perda involuntária de urina e os fatores obstétricos relacionados em um grupo de puérperas e, como objetivos específicos: identificar a ocorrência e o tipo do sintoma relacionado à perda involuntária de urina em qualquer momento da vida e durante o ciclo grávido-puerperal; descrever a ocorrência dos sintomas urinários no ciclo grávido puerperal, de acordo com: paridade, tipo de parto, uso de fórceps, episiotomia, peso e perímetro cefálico do recém-nascido. Caracteriza-se por ser um estudo epidemiológico, descritivo, de corte transversal, desenvolvido nas dependências de uma maternidade filantrópica de um município paulista. Participaram do estudo 244 puérperas, com idade entre 14-43 anos, que compareceram à consulta de puerpério. Os dados foram coletados nos prontuários da maternidade e por meio de entrevista semi-estruturada. Os resultados apontam uma prevalência de 45,9% de perda involuntária de urina em qualquer momento da vida. Entre as 112 mulheres com o sintoma, 77,8% iniciaram o sintoma durante a gestação índice; 9,8% após o parto índice; 6,3% antes da gestação índice; 3,6% durante outra gestação e 2,7% após outro parto. Em qualquer momento da vida e no ciclo grávido puerperal houve predomínio do sintoma de esforço, seguido por sintoma misto e de urgência. A existência do sintoma no puerpério imediato sugere a necessidade de atenção especial por parte do sistema de saúde e de seus profissionais, a fim de evitar repercussões negativas na saúde da mulher. / Urinary incontinence is a symptom that reaches predominantly women and consists in a public health problem. Puerperium is a fragile phase of all pregnancy and puerperium period that receives scarcely attention from health professionals and the there is a lack of national literature about the prevalence of urinary incontinence. In this way, this study aimed to study the occurrence of involuntary urinary loss in a puerperae group and specifically to identify the occurrence and type of symptoms related to involuntary urinary loss at any life moment and during pregnancy and puerperium period; to describe the occurrence of involuntary urinary loss at pregnancy and puerperium period, according to: number of pregnancy, type of childbirth, use of forceps, episiotomy, weight and newborn?s cefalic perimeter. This is cross-section descriptive study developed in a philantropic maternity in a city from São Paulo State - Brazil. Participated on this study 244 puerperae, with age between 14-43 years, that appeared in puerperium?s consultation. To collection data a half-structuralized interview and maternity?s handbook was used. The results point a prevalence of 45,9% involuntary urinary loss, when considered its occurrence to the little one time, at any moment of life. Between these 112 women, 77,8% had initiated symptoms during index pregnancy; 9,8% after index childbirth; 6,3% before index pregnancy; 3,6% during another pregnancy and 2,7% after another childbirth. At any moment of life and at the current pregnancy and puerperium period had predominance of stress symptoms, following by mixed and urgency symptoms. The existence of symptoms found in the immediate puerperium suggests the need of special attention by the health?s system and the professionals, in order to prevent negative repercussions in woman?s health.

Experiência de mulheres com a cesariana: estudo fundamentado na fenomenologia social de Alfred Schültz / Women\'s experience of the caesarean section: a study based on the social phenomenology of Alfred Schütz

Greyce Pollyne Santos Silva 04 July 2013 (has links)
Introdução: considerando as altas taxas de cesariana e de morbidades relacionadas a este procedimento cirúrgico, especialmente no Brasil, considera-se relevante elucidar para além da perspectiva numérica como a cesariana acontece a partir do ponto de vista de mulheres que foram a ela submetidas. Objetivo: compreender a experiência da mulher primípara com a cesariana. Método: pesquisa qualitativa fundamentada na fenomenologia social de Alfred Schütz. Foram entrevistadas, em 2012, oito puérperas que tiveram seus partos em maternidades que atendem a convênios de saúde em Minas Gerais, Brasil. Os depoimentos foram obtidos a partir das seguintes questões norteadoras: como foi sua experiência com a cesariana? Considerando esta experiência, o que você espera para o próximo parto? Resultados: a mulher decide pela cesariana, por medo do parto vaginal visto como causador de dor e sofrimento. Sofre influências de pessoas próximas para optar pela cesariana. Mesmo decidida, refere medo em relação à cirurgia e à anestesia. Revela satisfação com a cesariana, embora aponte as limitações vivenciadas no pós-operatório, ressaltando a necessidade do suporte profissional para o cuidado do recém-nascido, especialmente quanto ao contato precoce mãe-filho e ao apoio para a amamentação. Caso engravide novamente, espera experienciar outra cesariana por medo do parto vaginal. Considerações Finais: os resultados apontam para a necessidade de atitudes profissionais que respondam à experiência e às expectativas da mulher submetida à cesariana. / Introduction: considering the high rates of caesarean and morbidities related to this surgical procedure, especially in Brazil, it is relevant to elucidate beyond the numeral perspective how the caesarian sections occur from the women\'s point of view who have been put through them. Objectives: to understand the primiparous women\'s experience of the caesarian. Method: a qualitative research based on the social phenomenology of Alfred Schütz. In 2012, eight puerperal women were interviewed. All of them have given birth in maternities which have health insurance in Minas Gerais, Brazil. The testimonies were obtained by asking the following questions: how was your experience of the caesarian? Considering this experience, what do you wish for the next childbirth? Results: most women prefer the caesarean section because they are afraid of the pain and sufferance from the vaginal parturition. They are influenced by close people to choose the caesarean. Even after the decision, they declare fear of the surgery as well as the anaesthesia. Satisfaction of the caesarean is revealed although the postoperative limitations are mentioned. Professional support is needed to care of the newborn, especially to promote the early mother-child contact and support the breast-feed. If there is a new pregnancy, women prefer to experience another caesarean since the fear of vaginal parturition. Final Considerations: the results point out that professional attitudes are necessary to respond to women\'s experience and expectations of the caesarean.

Förskolan som hälsofrämjande arena : En kvalitativ intervjustudie ur förskollärares perspektiv / Preschool as a healt promotion arena : A qualitative interviewstudy from preschool teachers perspective

Callh, Amanda January 2018 (has links)
In order for the individual's chances of good health to increase, health promotion should beintroduced to the youngest children. A recent report shows that Sweden is falling in ranking in termsof equal health where Sweden ended up in 23 out of 35 countries. The socioeconomic gaps inSweden's society mean that children's health becomes a geographical issue. The preschool's rolebecomes extremely important in this context, as statistics show that 84% of children living inSweden are enrolled in preschool. The purpose is to investigate how preschool teachers feel thatthey work with children's health and well-being at preschool. The study consists of six qualitativeinterviews with preschool teachers spread across two preschools. A qualitative content analysis ofthe data was conducted to find prominent categories. Preschool teachers in the study agree thathealth in preschool needs more attention. They agree that physical activity is restricted to theoutdoor environment due to large children's groups and small premises. The result emphasizes thatpreschool should be a positive and safe environment in which the children feel good.

O significado do estoma intestinal entre homens: um estudo etnográfico / The meaning of the intestinal stoma among men: a study ethnografphic

Eliza Maria Rezende Dázio 31 July 2008 (has links)
Este estudo teve como objetivo interpretar os significados que os homens inseridos na classe popular atribuem à condição de serem portadores de estoma intestinal por câncer colorretal, com base nos pressupostos sócio-antropológicos de masculinidade. Para tal compreensão foram utilizados os referenciais teóricos da antropologia interpretativa de Clifford Geertz e de Arthur Kleinman e o método etnográfico. Participaram do estudo dezesseis homens portadores de estomas intestinais temporários e/ou definitivos por câncer colorretal, moradores de Ribeirão Preto e região. A coleta de dados ocorreu no período de junho a dezembro de 2007 no Ambulatório de Proctologia do Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina de Ribeirão Preto e nas residências dos informantes. Foram respeitadas as questões éticas e os informantes assinaram um Termo de Consentimento Livre e Esclarecido para participarem do estudo. Realizou-se entrevistas semi-estruturadas gravadas, observações participantes e anotações em um diário de campo. A análise dos dados apoiou-se nos pressupostos da sócio-antropologia de masculinidade de Connell e outros autores. Identificou-se os códigos que apontaram o sentido da experiência para os informantes e que, posteriormente, serviram de guia para as unidades de sentidos e a construção dos significados. Da análise surgiram dois núcleos de significados: \"A descoberta da doença e da necessidade do tratamento: a vida em jogo\"; \"Ser homem com estoma intestinal: ajustando a vida com resignação à sua nova masculinidade\". No primeiro tema, foi possível apreender que os sintomas do câncer colorretal surgem gradativamente, integram-se ao cotidiano dos homens e a sua gravidade é percebida quando a doença já está avançada. Influenciados por padrões sócio-culturais hegemônicos da masculinidade, os homens demoram em procurar recursos profissionais. A precariedade dos serviços de saúde e a dificuldade para a definição do diagnóstico os levam a idas e vindas aos ambulatórios e exames. O diagnóstico de câncer, a quimioterapia, a radioterapia e a cirurgia mutiladora que resulta na construção do estoma intestinal, rompem seus projetos de vida. O segundo tema aborda as dificuldades iniciais no pós-operatório, as alterações da imagem corporal, o estoma, a bolsa coletora, a dieta, a sexualidade e os laços sociais. Essas dificuldades foram interpretadas como dimensões de masculinidades de subordinação, marginalização e cumplicidade. Influenciados por padrões de masculinidade(s), os homens não se entregam, lutam pela sobrevivência e pela manutenção dos seus papéis sociais, estipulados pela visão hegemônica da masculinidade. Sobreviver ao CCR exige um ajustamento à nova condição, à nova identidade de homem; requer uma resignação com a situação para re-significar o viver. Nesse sentido, apreendemos a influência das dimensões da masculinidade nos diversos momentos de desafio ao ajustamento ao câncer, em se ter um estoma e nas conseqüências limitadoras em relação ao estilo de vida anterior. Os achados desse estudo oferecem subsídios para o cuidar, levando-se em consideração a perspectiva cultural. / This study had as objective to interpret the meanings that the men inserted in the popular class they attribute to the condition of they be bearers of intestinal stoma for cancer colorectal, with base in the partner-anthropological presuppositions of manliness. For such understanding were used the Clifford Geertz and Arthur Kleinman\'s theoretical references of interpretative anthropology and the method ethnographic. Sixteen men participated in the study bearers of temporary and/or definitive intestinal stoma for cancer colorectal, residents from Ribeirão Preto and region. The collection of data happened in the period of june to december of 2007 in the Clinic of Proctology of the Hospital of the Clinics of University of Medicine of Ribeirão Preto and in the informers\' residences. The ethical subjects were respected and the informers signed a Term of Free Consent and Illustrious to participate in the study. It took place interviews semi-structured recorded, participant observations and annotations in a field diary. The analysis of the data supported in the presuppositions of the partner-anthropology of manliness of Connell and other authors. It was identified the codes that pointed the sense of the experience for the informers and that, later, they served as guide for the units of senses and the construction of the meanings. Of the analysis two nuclei of meanings appeared: \"The discovery of the disease and of the need of the treatment: the life in game\"; \"To be man with intestinal stoma: adjusting the life with resignation to his new manliness\". In the first theme, it was possible to apprehend that the symptoms of the cancer colorectal appear gradually, they integrate into the daily of the men and his gravity is noticed when the disease is already advanced. Influenced by patterns partner-cultural hegemonic of the manliness, the men delay in seeking professional resources. The precariousness of the services of health and the difficulty for the definition of the diagnosis take them to go and come to the clinics and exams. The diagnosis of cancer, the chemotherapy, the radiotherapy and the surgery of mutilation that results in the construction of the intestinal stoma, they break their life projects. The second theme approaches the initial difficulties in the postoperative, the alterations of the corporal image, the stoma, the bag collect, the diet, the sexuality and the social ties. These difficulties were interpreted as dimensions of manliness of subordination, marginalization and complicity. Influenced by patterns of manliness, the men don\'t surrender, they struggle for the survival and for the maintenance of their social roles, stipulated by the vision hegemonic of the manliness. To survive to CCR demands an adjustment to the new condition, to the new man identity; it requests a resignation with the situation to redefinition of living. In that sense, we apprehended the influence of the dimensions of the manliness in the several moments of challenge to the adjustment to the cancer, in having a stoma and in the consequences of limitation in relation to the previous lifestyle. The discoveries of that study offer subsidies for taking care, being taken into account the cultural perspective.

The importance of including femalegenital mutilation into medical education : A qualitative study on Swedish universities midwifery program

Jansson, Elin January 2021 (has links)
This thesis will investigate to what extent the midwifery programme atselected Swedish universities is including the issue of female genitalmutilation (FGM) into their education and curriculum. This is an importantsubject to do research on since a lot of existing literature on the topic showsthat midwives in Sweden are seriously lacking in knowledge regarding thepractice of FGM. According to a study done by Tamaddon et al. (2006) lessthan 30% of the Swedish midwives believed that they had adequateknowledge of FGM. Another study of the issue of FGM showed thatSwedish midwives felt that their knowledge of FGM was lacking and that itwas a marginalized issue on their place of work (Widmark et al. 2002).The reason to why the focus of my research will be on midwifery studentsand teachers within the midwifery program is because the healthprofessionals who is most likely to meet circumcised women are midwives.According to Dawson et al. (2015) “Midwives are often the first providerswomen will see for their maternal health needs and therefore play a criticalrole in providing quality care and preventing the practice” (Dawson et al.2015 p 230).The chosen research topic fits smoothly into the broader peace anddevelopment area due to what has been mentioned earlier, the increase inpeople movement in the world today makes some issues a global challenge.Which has been the case of the practice of FGM, it is now time to understandthat this is no longer an issue only in the countries were FGM is traditionallypracticed, it is an issue and especially a challenge even in high incomecountries.The method to be used in this research is semi-structured interviews with acareful sampling process of participants, done by a purposive sampling. Itwill be a qualitative study based on a cross-sectional design.

Upplevelser av hur fysisk aktivitet påverkats av fysioterapeutiska åtgärder hos kvinnor med kvarstående bäcken- och/eller ländryggssmärta postpartum : En kvalitativ intervjustudie

Einarsson, Emma, Reinhed Liljeqvist, Emma January 2023 (has links)
Bakgrund: Graviditetsrelaterad bäcken- och/eller ländryggssmärta drabbar många kvinnor och ett stort antal har kvarstående besvär postpartum. Många kvinnor tenderar dessutom att bli fysiskt inaktiva under och efter graviditet. Fysioterapeutiska åtgärder som avser att minska besvär och optimera rörelseförmåga hos denna patientgrupp ges främst ur ett biomedicinskt perspektiv. Nya studier har dock indikerat att fysioterapeutiska åtgärder som beaktar bio-psyko-sociala faktorer är värdefullt. Syfte: Syftet med studien är att undersöka hur kvinnor med graviditetsrelaterad bäcken- och/eller ländryggssmärta postpartum upplever att deras fysiska aktivitetsnivå påverkats av fysioterapeutiska åtgärder. Metod: Studien genomfördes med en kvalitativ, deskriptiv design och data samlades in under sju semistrukturerade intervjuer. Data analyserades genom en kvalitativ innehållsanalys med induktiv ansats. Resultat: Analysen resulterade i fem kategorier: Åtgärder som minskar fysiska besvär ökar förmågan till aktivitet, Individanpassade åtgärder betydelsefullt för ökad aktivitet, Fysioterapeutens kompetens avgörande för aktivitet, Fysioterapeutens bemötande och attityd påverkar behandlingsupplevelsen samt Förståelse för hur aktivitet påverkar besvär främjar rörelse. Slutsats: Resultatet i studien indikerar att fysioterapeutiska åtgärder som integrerar ett bio-psyko-socialt förhållningssätt gynnar ökad fysisk aktivitet hos kvinnor med bäcken- och/eller ländryggssmärta postpartum. Kvinnorna uppgav vidare att fysioterapeutens kompetens samt bemötande och attityd påverkar aktivitetsnivå och huruvida besvären förbättras eller inte. / Background: Pregnancy-related pelvic and/or low back pain affects many women, and a significant number of women have persistent pain postpartum. A lot of women tend to become physically inactive during and after pregnancy. Physiotherapeutic interventions that aim to decrease discomfort and optimize mobility are given foremost from a biomedical approach for this patient group. However, recent studies have indicated that physical therapy interventions that consider a bio-psycho-social approach are valuable. Objective: The purpose of this study is to investigate how women with pregnancy-related pelvic and/or low back pain postpartum experience that their level of physical activity is affected by physiotherapeutic interventions. Method: The study was conducted with a qualitative, descriptive design and data was collected through seven semi-structured interviews. Data were analyzed through a qualitative content analysis with an inductive approach. Results: The analysis resulted in five categories: Interventions to decrease physical discomfort increase the ability to become more active, Individual constructed interventions important for increased activity, The physiotherapist competence is decisive for activity, The physiotherapist approach and attitude affects treatment experience and Understanding how activity affect discomfort promotes movement. Conclusion: This study indicates that physiotherapeutic interventions that integrate a biopsychosocial approach promote increased level of physical activity in women with pregnancy-related pelvic and/or low back pain postpartum. The women further stated that the physiotherapist's competence as well as approach and attitude affect the level of activity and if the discomfort improves or not.

Mannens upplevelse av att leva med blåsdysfunktion / The man´s experience of living with bladder dysfunction

Andreasson, Petra, Junkvist, Kristin January 2024 (has links)
Bladder dysfunction is seen as a public health problem with a strongly increasing incidence in older men. Despite this, the man's experience of bladder dysfunction is a topic that has not been researched in the empirical field as much as women’s experiences. Not highlighting the man's experience leads to suffering and constitutes an obstacle to equal care. The aim of this study was to illustrate the man's experience of living with bladder dysfunction. This study is intended to illustrate experiences, therefore it was well suited to make an integrative compilation of qualitative research – inspired by meta-synthesis. Nine qualitative articles that described the man's experiences were analysed schematically and resulted in three themes and six sub-themes. Experiences that were noticed in the man were the impact of the environment in bladder dysfunction which included environmental and health care responses. Emotional impact in bladder dysfunction, which highlighted the experiences that arose in connection with bladder dysfunction. The life adaptations in bladder dysfunction was an experience which described the changes the man made to achieve a normality in everyday life as well as changes to hide the condition.
