Experiences of co-producing person-centred and cohesive clinical pathways in the national system for knowledge-based management in Swedish healthcare: a qualitative study.

Background: When the 21 Swedish county councils decided to collaborate in the creation of a national system for knowledge-based management, patient participation was mandatory. Patient and next-of-kin representatives (PR) co-produced person-centred and cohesive clinical pathways together with healthcare professionals (HPR). Research on co-production in healthcare at the national level is scarce.

[Four perspectives on Graves' orbitopathy - from the point of view of the patient, general practitioner, endocrinologist, and ophthalmologist].

Graves' orbitopathy is a common complication of Graves' disease. The mild form dominates, whereas moderate to severe and sight threatening forms are rarer. They require quick, adequate care, involving cooperation between county hospitals and the regional hospital, and adequate diagnostics and choice of treatments of treatments.

[Treatment of Graves' disease is moving towards precision medicine].

This is the first national guideline in hyperthyroidism to harmonise and update clinical practice according to what is evidence based and direct care from patients' needs. We present 4 articles in Läkartidningen of different views of the guideline, including family care perspectives, patient care perspectives and perspectives on ophthalmology. This article concerns treatment of Graves' disease and includes endocrinological, surgical and oncological perspectives on what is established practice, but also news in the national guideline that remain to be fully implemented in Sweden in the years to come.

[Patient needs at the heart of the national hyperthyroidism guideline].

Hyperthyroidism is a common disease that primarily affects women of all ages, and in addition to physical symptoms, mental symptoms are common, such as mental fatigue, anxiety, difficulty concentrating and mood changes. A common opinion is that the patient is recovered once the thyroid disorder is treated. However, many patients will experience persistent brain fatigue and mental problems, even after normal thyroid function is restored.

Patient needs and care: moves toward person-centered care for Graves' disease in Sweden.

Patients with Graves' disease (GD) not only need appropriate medical care, but they also need to be cared for. The aim of this review is to examine the literature on GD patient needs, expectations, perceptions, and quality of life. We will also present methods for patient care, define gaps in knowledge, and suggest factors that can be introduced into the regular care of GD patients.
