Professionernas farhågor om införandet av eJournal inom vuxenpsykiatrin i Region Skåne

Hösten 2015 var Region Skåne först i Sverige med att lägga till patientjournaler från psykiatrin till invånartjänsten eJournal. Genom tjänsten, har alla patienter i den vuxenpsykiatriska vården i Region Skåne tillgång till sin journal via nätet. Det finns lite kunskap om hur professioner na inom den psykiatriska vården förväntar sig att deras arbete kommer att påverkas av den ökade transparens som

Can Women Have Children and a Career: IV Evidence from IVF Treatments

This paper introduces a new IV strategy based on IVF (in vitro fertilization) induced fertility variation among childless women to estimate the causal effect of having children on their career. For this purpose, we use administrative data on IVF treated women in Denmark. Because observed chances of IVF success do not depend on labor market histories, IVF treatment success provides a plausible inst

Employees’ work environment and patients’ rights, conflicting responsibilities when implementing patient online access to their EHR

This paper is based on an interview study examining the implementation of the eHealth service patient online access to electronic health records in two county councils in Sweden. Our aim is to present and discuss the two councils’ implementation processes and the differences between them, with particular focus on the implementers’ consideration of caregivers’ work environment. A theoretical aim is

Hur tvärprofessionellt arbete kan leda till förflyttning av läkares lojalitet

Data från en empirinära studie av tvärprofessionellt teamarbete på en intensivvårdsavdelning (IVA) visade att läkarnas huvudsakliga lojalitet flyttats från den egna professionen till teamen och avdelningen. Data insamlades med djupintervjuer, observationer och samtalsgrupper. I papret kommer vi att beskriva den bakomliggande förändringsprocess som genomförts på avdelningen. I förändringsprocessen

Gender differences in autism spectrum disorders: Divergence among specific core symptoms

Community-based studies have consistently shown a sex ratio heavily skewed towards males in autism spectrum disorders (ASD). The factors underlying this predominance of males are largely unknown, but the way girls score on standardized categorical diagnostic tools might account for the underrecognition of ASD in girls. Despite the existence of different norms for boys and girls with ASD on several

Children and Adolescents with Mobility Limitation

A group of children with special health care needs, those with mobility limitations, is the focus of this chapter. We discuss the impact of mobility limitation in childhood and adolescence among those who were either born with a mobility limiting condition or those who acquired a mobility limitation at a very young age. The purpose of this chapter is to provide an overview of common important conc

A family perspective : how this product can inform and empower families of youth with spina bifida

This article focuses on how the Life Course Model Web site can help family members build on the strengths of individuals with spina bifida and address areas of difficulty. A developmental perspective is adopted, which maintains that the Life Course Model Web site is useful at all stages of development, with the information provided for families at one stage of development building on the informati

The National Spina Bifida Program transition initiative : the people, the plan, and the process

This article outlines and summarizes the rationale and the working process that was undertaken by the National Spina Bifida Program to address the issues of transitioning throughout the life course for persons growing up with spina bifida. Their challenges include achieving independent living, vocational independence, community mobility, and participation in social activities, and health managemen

A deviational approach to blockmodeling of valued networks

This article proposes a novel approach to blockmodeling of valued (one-mode) networks where the identification of (binary) block patterns in the valued relations differ from existing approaches. Rather than looking at the absolute values of relations, or examining valued ties on a per-actor basis (cf. Nordlund, 2007), the approach identifies prominent (binary) ties on the basis of deviations from

Low Complexity Adaptive Channel Estimation and QR Decomposition for an LTE-A Downlink

This paper presents a link adaptive processor to perform low-complexity channel estimation and QR decomposition (QRD) in Long Term Evolution-Advanced (LTE-A) receivers. The processor utilizes frequency domain correlation of the propagation channel to adaptively avoid unnecessary computations in the received signal processing, achieving significant complexity reduction with negligible performance l

International trade in fuel commodities : A network approach

Much as the contemporary understanding of world trade is often based on simple models where two countries engage in trade, so is world trade in fuel commodities typically conceived as consisting of either net-importing or net-exporting countries. However, by paying attention to the structure of world trade, represented by actually occurring trade flows between the actors in such networks, it becom

Performance Assessment of Wastewater Treatment Plants : Multi-Objective Analysis Using Plant-Wide Models

As the knowledge about anthropogenic impacts of climate change has grown, the awareness of the contributions from treatment of wastewater has widened the scope for wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). Not only shall ever stricter effluent constraints be met, but also energy efficiency be increased, greenhouse gases mitigated and resources recovered. All under a constant pressure on costs. The main
