  1. 1. Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) Epidemiological and Pan-airway Aspects

    Författare :Ulf Nihlén; allergologi och palliativ medicin Lungmedicin; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Respiratory system; spirometry; nasal polyposis; nasal symptoms; prevalence; incidence; coronary heart disease; alcohol; airways; COPD; FEV1; Andningsorganen;

    Sammanfattning : Background – Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. However, there is little information on the prevalence and particularly on the incidence of COPD. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Tomographic ventilation-perfusion lung scintigraphy in cardiopulmonary disease

    Författare :Jonas Jögi; Lund Klinisk fysiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Technegas; Ventilation-Perfusion Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography; Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease; Heart failure; Pulmonary embolism;

    Sammanfattning : Respiration relies, among other things, on the balance between regional ventilation and perfusion in the lungs. There are many cardiopulmonary diseases, such as pulmonary embolism (PE), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and left heart failure (LHF), which can affect respiration negatively. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Exercise training and testing in patients with heart failure

    Författare :Charlotta Lans; Lars Brudin; Eva Nylander; Åsa Cider; Anita Wisén; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Patients with heart failure (HF) suffer from symptoms such as dyspnea, fatigue and reduced quality of life, which affect their physical function and often lead to immobilization and poor survival prognosis. Exercise training in cardiac rehabilitation should be offered to every patient with HF and can be performed both in a hospital-setting and with a home training programme. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Self-care behaviour and daily life experiences in patients with chronic heart failure

    Författare :Marie Holst; Malmö högskola; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Under min tid som kliniskt verksam sjuksköterska mötte jag många patienter sombesvärades av törst och som hade svårt att följa den vätskerekommendation på1,5L/dygn som gavs. Detta är upprinnelsen till denna avhandling vars syfte är att beskrivaoch utvärdera egenvårdsbeteendet samt att beskriva hur det dagliga livet upplevsav patienter med kronisk hjärtsvikt, med speciellt intresse riktat mot vätskeintaget.

  7. 5. Population-based prediction of atrial fibrillation

    Författare :Gustav Smith; Kardiologi; []
    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; atrial fibrillation; prediction; epidemiology; genetics; natriuretic peptide; heart failure;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia and increases in prevalence. As AF confers increased risk of morbidity, stroke, dementia and mortality, a major objective of cardiovascular epidemiology today is the development of tools for prediction and prevention of AF and its consequences.
