As home care increases and care is moving from nursing homes and hospitals into people’s homes, there are problem areas that need to be addressed and solved in a better way than today. Nurses and other home care workers are exposed to serval risks when the patients’ home environment becomes their workplace. There are also serval risks for the patients when their homes are transferred into “small h

We consider a fundamental problem for the betting interpretation of degrees of belief: There is a sense in which degrees of belief cannot be interpreted as betting rates. The bets we are disposed to accept do not reflect our current unconditional degrees of belief in various propositions. Whether a bet on A would be accepted or not does not depend on the agent’s degree of belief in A but rather on

Paper presentation at the Swedish Association for American Studies-Conference in Örebro 2014. It is based on HBO:s television series John Adams. Focus is on the American revolution and John Adams, the second president of the United States as they are presented in the television series and how the depiction of the revolution is formed by the early 21st century.

A 62-year-old man suffered out-of-hospital cardiac arrest and was treated with mechanical compression-decompression during transport to the hospital. In the emergency department, 28 min after cardiac arrest, spontaneous circulation returned briefly but the patient rapidly became asystolic and mechanical compression-decompression was again applied. After further resuscitation a spontaneous circulat

Förändringar måste vara väl motiverade och förankrade hos både elever och lärare. De måste vara anpassade till skolans mål och den enskilde studentens behov. I denna rapport presenteras ett antal förslag på lösningar till några av de problem som kan uppstå då man försöker införa nya pedagogiska metoder samt motivationens betydelse för det slutgiltiga resultatet.

Most energy behaviour studies on households focus on the questions how and why we use energy and what can be done to lower energy consumption. Very few studies raise the question of when energy is used or examine the underlying explanations to load patterns. Due to economic and technical problems with electricity peak load, it is important to gain knowledge about how the load patterns of household

Popular Abstract in Swedish Enzymer är viktiga ämnen i naturen. Vi talar då och då om att vi förbränner vår mat. Trots detta känner vi oss oftast inte särskilt varma, i alla fall inte så att det bränns. Visst bränner vi vår mat. Socker omvandlas till koldioxid och vatten precis som om vi hade eldat upp det utanför kroppen. Skillnanden är att kroppen omvandlar sockret långsammare och mer kontrollerWith the goal to study the mechanisms of dinuclear metalloenzymes, a new line of synthetic and computational models were prepared and studied. Mixed imidazole and carboxylate multidentate complexes were synthesized to better simulate carboxylate-rich ligand environments. Of the compounds, which showed to be the most useful, were one symmetric and the other one asymmetric and in both cases they wer

Popular Abstract in Swedish Vid njursvikt finns två huvudsakliga metoder för att rena blodet: bukdialys och bloddialys. Vid bukdialys, peritonealdialys (PD), används bukhinnan som dialysmembran, och sockerhaltig dialysvätska fylls på via en kateter i bukväggen. Under dialysen sker transport av slaggprodukter och överskottsvätska från blodet till bukhålan. Dialysen pågår kontinuerligt under hela dyAccording to the three-pore model of peritoneal transport the major exchange pathway between the blood and the peritoneal cavity is represented by “small pores”, permeable to small solutes and water. Osmotically induced fluid flow, as during peritoneal dialysis (PD), is postulated to occur to a great extent through a water-only pathway, whereas proteins are predicted to reach the peritoneal cavity
