1. 21. ICELANDIC NURSING HOME RESIDENTS: THEIR MORTALITY, HEALTH, FUNCTIONAL PROFILE, AND CARE QUALITY, USING THE MINIMUM DATA SET OVER TIME

   Författare :Ingibjörg Hjaltadottir; Institutionen för hälsovetenskaper; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; geriatric nursing; quality indicators; Minimum Data Set; nursing homes; health needs assessment; Older people;

   Sammanfattning : The overall aim of this thesis was to investigate trends over time in residents’ health status, functional profile and predictors of mortality at admission to Icelandic nursing homes and in addition to determine upper and lower thresholds for Minimum Data Set (MDS) Quality Indicators, to investigate the prevalence of quality indicators over time and their association with the health status and functional profile of residents in Icelandic nursing homes. Studies I and II included 2,206 persons assessed over 11 years (1996-2006). LÄS MER

3. 22. Opioids in the management of pain during delivery

   Författare :Christina Olofsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Labour pain; systemic opioids; analgesia; epidural; subarachnoid; sufentanll; fentanyl; postpartal urinary retention; caesarean section; cerebrospinal fluid; endogenous pain controlling mechanisms;

   Sammanfattning : Labour and delivery involve severe pain for most women. The goal for pain treatment in obstetrics is to provide effective and safe analgesia during all phases of delivery. The ideal method for pain relief during delivery is not yet available. LÄS MER

4. 23. Epidemiological studies of vacuum extraction delivery : incidence, risk factors and subsequent childbearing

   Författare :Charlotte Elvander; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis was to bring focus on factors and outcomes associated with vacuum extraction delivery (VE). Delivery by VE is associated with both maternal risks (such as obstetric anal sphincter ruptures, postpartum hemorrhage and a negative birth experience) and infant risks (such as scalp lacerations, cephalohematoma, intracranial hemorrhage and brachial plexus injury).

5. 24. Graphene FETs in Microwave Applications

   Författare :Omid Habibpour; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; microwave amplifiers; S-parameters characterisation; device modelling; MMIC; device fabrication; Graphene; subharmonic resistive mixers; integrated circuits; harmonic balance analysis; microwave FETs;

   Sammanfattning : Graphene is a one-atom-thick sheet of carbon with numerous impressive properties. It is a promising material for future high-speed nanoelectronics due to its intrinsic superior carrier mobility and very high saturation velocity. LÄS MER

7. 25. Osteoarthritis. Epidemiologic and genetic aspects

   Författare :Jonas Franklin; Lund Ortopedi; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; body mass index; knee; hip; epidemiology; Osteoarthritis; occupation; hip fracture; inheritance; natural history;

   Sammanfattning : The purpose of this study was to (I) assess the association between body mass index (BMI) and total hip replacement (THR) and total knee replacement (TKR) due to osteoarthritis (OA), (II) assess the association between the mechanical load of work and THR and TKR due to OA, (III) evaluate the natural history of radiographic hip OA with regards to THR and hip fracture, (IV) to determine the prevalence of radiographic OA in patients with hip fracture, and (V) to examine and compare the inheritance patterns of THR for OA and hip fracture. OA was previously regarded as a consequence of the wear and tear the joint is subjected to during one’s lifetime. LÄS MER
