1. 1. The effect  of peroperative skin preparation on bacterial growth during cardiac surgery

   Författare :Karin Falk-Brynhildsen; Ulrica Nilsson; Bo Söderquist; Örjan Friberg; Tor Monsen; Örebro universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; OR; plastic adhesive drape; microbial skin sealent; chlorhexidine; Vårdvetenskap; Nursing Science;

   Sammanfattning : Routine products are used and procedures are followed in order to prevent and minimize the bacterial contamination of the surgical wound, and thus reduce the risk of postoperative wound infections. The overall aim of this thesis was to investigate the effect of different preoperative skin preparation before cardiac surgery. LÄS MER

3. 2. Swedish operating room nurses preventive interventions to reduce bacterial growth, surgical site infections, and increase comfort in patients undergoing surgery

   Författare :Camilla Wistrand; Ulrica Nilsson; Bo Söderquist; Karin Falk-Brynhildsen; Tor Monsen; Örebro universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; skin disinfection; patient experience; skin temperature; intra-operative; surgical site infection; bacterial growth; recolonization;

   Sammanfattning : Surgical site infection is a major postoperative complication that causes patient suffering and is costly for society. The general aim of this thesis was to test and describe interventions performed by operating room (OR) nurses to prevent bacterial growth in surgical patients, with the intent to prevent surgical site infections (SSIs) whilst increase patients comfort.

4. 3. Film Formation from Dispersions - Preparation and Mechanisms

   Författare :Stefan Erkselius; Centrum för analys och syntes; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Polymerteknik; biopolymers; Polymer technology; decomposition; sodium persulfate; hyrdoxyethyl cellulose; salt; surfactants; drying; stabilization; latex; Film formation; dispersions;

   Sammanfattning : Improved environmental consciousness and harsh legislation concerning volatile organic compounds (VOCs) during the 1980s led to an increase in the development in the field of polymer colloids. Solvent born coatings were replaced by polymer dispersions in aqueous solution, so called latex dispersions. LÄS MER

5. 4. Skin cancer prevention : readiness to change sun-related behaviours

   Författare :Sveinbjörn Kristjánsson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Nyckelord :Skin cancer; prevention; sun protection; sunscreen; sun exposure; stages of change; Transtheoretical Model; behavioural change.;

   Sammanfattning : The general aim of this thesis was to collect data relevant for skin cancer prevention and to investigate the applicability of the Transtheoretical Model for sun-related behaviour. Also, to assess the readiness to change five different sun-related behaviours in the general population in Stockholm County. LÄS MER

7. 5. Foam Core Materials for High Performance Sandwich Constructions: Preparation, Testing and Properties

   Författare :Mikael Danielsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; IPN; core material; low temperature; polyurea; polyethersulfone; gradient structure; foam; PVC; sandwich; waste; fire; smoke; toxicity; mechanical properties; Inter Penetrating Polymer Network; dynamic properties; high temperature;

   Sammanfattning : The basic task for foams used as core materials in sandwich constructions is to separate the skin layers in order to enhance stiffness with little contribution to the total weight. However, modern design in sandwich technology require that core materials contribute to the perfor-mance with specific mechanical and physical properties. LÄS MER
