  1. 21. Assessment of Aerobic Capacity A Novel Rating Scale and Further Development of an Exercise Test including Analysis of Gas Exchange

    Författare :Anita Wisén; Människan i rörelse: hälsa och rehabilitering; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; kinesitherapy; revalidation; rehabilitation; Rehabilitering medicinsk och social ; Physical medicine; Time constant of V O2; Cycle ergometer; Perceived Capacity; Perceived exertion; Heart rate; Oxygen uptake; Reference values; Oxygen kinetics; Repeatability; Thresholds;

    Sammanfattning : Different methods are proposed to assess the aerobic capacity. A novel scale, rating of perceived capacity (RPC) based on metabolic equivalents (METs) from 1 to 20, is presented. Selected MET values are linked to physical activities. LÄS MER

  3. 22. An electrostatic sampling device for point-of-care detection of bioaerosols

    Författare :Laila Ladhani; Wouter van der Wijngaart; Jorma Keskinen; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; electrostatic sampling; bioaerosols; point-of-care; breath sampling; electrostatic precipitation; microfluidic collection; corona discharge; air sampling; non-invasive diagnostics; exhaled breath analysis; on-site detection; aerosol sampling; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Bioaerosols are not only a significant factor of air quality but contribute greatly to the spread of infectious diseases, specifically through expired pathogen-laden aerosols. Clear examples of airborne transmission include: the recent influenza pandemic of 2009, the ongoing tuberculosis epidemic, and yearly norovirus out- breaks, which affect millions of people worldwide and pose serious threats to public healthcare systems.

  4. 23. Clinical pharmacokinetics of intravenous ethanol : relationship between the ethanol space and total body water

    Författare :Åke Norberg; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Introduction: Total body water (TBW) is an important parameter in pathological states where the normal regulation of fluid balance is impaired (e.g., during critical illness, congestive heart failure, bum injury and renal insufficiency). LÄS MER

  5. 24. Studies on energy expenditure in walking after stroke

    Författare :Anna Danielsson; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Cerebrovascular accident; Energy expenditure; Rehabilitation; Walking;

    Sammanfattning : After stroke, altered movement pattern involves low walking speed and increased energy cost as compared to normal. Cardiovascular disease is common in the stroke population. Knowledge about the physiological demands of various training interventions is important for the planning of exercise. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Vård i livets slutskede på särskilt boende för äldre personer : närstående och vårdpersonals skattade och berättade erfarenheter

    Författare :Sofia Andersson; Margareta Brännström; Carl Johan Fürst; Olav Lindqvist; Anna-Karin Edberg; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; care pathway; care professionals; end-of-life care; family members; older people; palliative care; residential care homes; residents; närstående; palliativ vård; särskilt boende; vårdpersonal; vårdplan; vård i livets slutskede; äldre personer; omvårdnadsforskning med medicinsk inriktning; Caring Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Bakgrund I Europa, blir det allt vanligare att äldre personer dör på särskilt boende i stället för på sjukhus. Särskilda boenden spelar därför en viktig roll när det gäller vård i livets slutskede. Målet med palliativ vård för personer med livshotande sjukdom och deras närstående är att öka livskvaliteten och lindra lidande. LÄS MER
