Hur gör man för att digitalisera sjukvården? Att införa digitala system i sjukvården är något som visat sig vara väldigt svårt, men vad krävs egentligen för att lyckas? I detta arbete presenteras framgångsfaktorer för implementeringen av ett e-hälsosystem för primärvården. Det går knappt att föreställa sig en tid då man inte kunde använda sin mobil för att betala räkningar, handla kläder eller bHealthcare organizations worldwide have struggled to implement e­health solutions, with projects frequently ending up delayed or above budget. Although it is generally assumed that digitalization has the potential to make healthcare more effective, the an­ ticipated improvements have not been as apparent in healthcare as in other industries. This thesis focuses on the pilot implementation of a pr

BACKGROUND: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is the most common severe chronic disease in primary care. It is typically diagnosed at a late stage, and it is also difficult to predict its trajectory and hence to tailor treatment and rehabilitation. The overall aim is to study determinants of exacerbations of COPD treated in primary care and to study, if the prognosis is related to patie

BackgroundMany countries and regions undergo structural changes that intent to improve the effectiveness and quality of care. Until 2007, the municipalities, counties, hospitals and pharmacies shared the smoking cessation activities almost equally in Denmark. Among others, the Danish Healthcare Reform 2007 intended to add responsibility for smoking cessation intervention at county level to the mun

Objectives: To describe characteristics and primary healthcare utilisation in Danish patients with low back pain (LBP) or neck/thoracic spine pain (NTP) 8 years before and 2 years after assessment in secondary care. Methods: In this cohort study, we included patients aged ≥ 18 who were assessed at an outpatient spine clinic from 2013 to 2021 and linked self-reported information with national regis

OBJECTIVE: To explore stroke survivors' experiences of healthcare-related facilitators and barriers concerning return to work after stroke. DESIGN: A qualitative study.

PARTICIPANTS: A convenient sample of 20 persons admitted to Skåne University Hospital for acute stroke care (median age 52 years), in emplo

Background: To establish integrated healthcare pathways for patients with neurodevelopmental disorders (ND) such as autism spectrum disorder and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder is challenging. This study sets out to investigate the main concerns for healthcare professionals when integrating ND care pathways and how they resolve these concerns. Methods: Using classic grounded theory (Glase

Objective: To explore risk perceptions, sexual practices and healthcare needs among men who have sex with men in the provincial city of Tanga in northern Tanzania. Previous research suggests that HIV/STIs are increasing problems for this population. Yet, few studies have been conducted outside the urban area of Dar es Salaam, which has limited our knowledge about the HIV/STI risk factors and healt

Background and aim: Family caregivers are often involved in helping recipients during allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Although the distress that often arises along the trajectory is evident to family caregivers, research on their perceptions of providing and receiving support is limited. The aim of this study was to explore family caregivers’ experiences of providin

cute pain services were introduced more than 20 years ago as an organizational attempt to meet shortcomings in postoperative pain management. The acute pain service concept received immediate and strong support from a large number of medical and health-care organizations around the world. Literature reviews indicate that 30–70% of North-American and European hospitals, depending on size and academ

Framed through a three-stage model: Disruption, Destabilisation, and Reconstruction, the study draws on Amartya Sen’s Development

This study aimed at evaluating the applicability of affordances and to what extent the concept could explain design related incidents. The chosen area of interest was healthcare. By employing the Critical Incidents Technique and melding it with the concept of affordances, an evaluation of designs was conducted on workflow activities in a Central Sterilization Unit. Results indicated that affordanc

The Swedish regions struggle with resource utilization issues that threaten the ability to provide timely and efficient healthcare to the citizens.

This is done through a user-centered design process, with the goal of designing a d

The anthropogenic climate change that we are experiencing today has primarily been brought on by GHG emissions from developed countries. However, scientific estimates show that some of the most severe adverse impacts of climate change will strike in regions of the world that have made only minor contributions to the making of the current climate change and that have little capacity to adapt to the
