Preventive care for individuals with deep pressure ulcers in Sweden living at home: A cross-sectional study.

Background And Aims: Several factors exist regarding the risk for, healing and prevention of pressure ulcers (PUs). A mobile PU team with an individualized holistic approach adapted to the home or outpatient clinic setting could be beneficial for the prevention, and management of PUs.

Aims: To describe the mobile PU team's interventions among individuals who had deep PUs and were living at home.

Oral language interventions can improve language outcomes in children with neurodevelopmental disorders: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Background: Young people who fail to develop language as expected face significant challenges in all aspects of life. Unfortunately, language disorders are common, either as a distinct condition (e.g.

Healthcare personnel self-assessed competence and knowledge following implementation of a new guideline on maternal resuscitation in Norway. A repeated measure study.

Introduction: Cardiac arrest in pregnancy is a rare, yet extremely challenging condition to manage for all healthcare personnel involved. Knowledge deficits and poor resuscitation skills can affect outcomes in cardiac arrest in pregnancy, but research exploring healthcare personnel competence and knowledge about maternal resuscitation is limited.

Aims: The aim of this study was to explore (1) healthcare personnel self-assessed competence and knowledge about cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in pregnancy as well as perimortem caesarean section, before and after implementation of a new guideline, (2) whether there were any interprofessional differences in knowledge about maternal resuscitation, and (3) potential differences between different implementation strategies.

Cardiovascular Risk Factors and Risk of Alzheimer Disease and Mortality: A Latent Class Approach.

Background Cardiovascular risk factors co-occur with one another, and little is known about the extent of their clustering and risk of Alzheimer disease (AD). We identify groups of cardiovascular risk factors in cognitively normal individuals and investigate between-group differences in incident AD and death. Methods and Results Cognitively normal individuals were recruited from the National Alzheimer's Coordinator Center.

Gastric acid suppressants and cognitive decline in people with or without cognitive impairment.

Introduction: Studies suggest associations between proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) and dementia risk; however, many neither considered histamine-2 receptor antagonists (H2RAs) nor baseline cognitive status.

Methods: Participants (National Alzheimer's Coordinating Center Database; 2005-2021) using a PPI or H2RA were compared. Covariate-adjusted Cox regression was used to estimate hazard ratios (HR) for progression from normal cognition to mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and from MCI to dementia over 5 years.

Health-related quality-of-life questionnaires for deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism: A systematic review on questionnaire development and methodology.

To improve the quality and accuracy of the patient-reported outcome measures that assess health-related quality of life (HRQoL), guidelines have been developed to standardize the development and validation process. Considering the increasing importance of HRQoL questionnaires in research, we set out to review the literature and evaluate whether existing questionnaires developed for deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE) fulfill state-of-the-art requirements. The literature search was conducted in March 2019 and updated in September 2020.

Pain in intensive care unit patients-A longitudinal study.

Aim: To assess occurrence of pain during the first 6 days of intensive care unit (ICU) stay and evaluate associations between occurrence of pain and selected patient-related variables.

Design: A longitudinal study.

Methods: Adult ICU patients from three units were included.

Nurses' perspectives on technical skill requirements in primary and tertiary healthcare services.

Aim: To explore nurses' perspectives on technical skill requirements in primary and tertiary healthcare services and their perspectives on where students should learn these skills.

Design: The study was conducted in Norway and had a cross-sectional, multicentre, descriptive design.

Methods: We used a questionnaire to explore registered nurses and intellectual disability nurses' perspectives on technical skill requirements and learning ( = 437).

Patient experiences with peripherally inserted venous catheters- A cross-sectional, multicentre study in Norway.

Aim: To investigate patient experiences with peripherally inserted venous catheters, namely PICC lines and Midlines, as well as the influence of socio-demographic variables, length of stay, comorbidity and complications on these experiences.

Design: The study had a descriptive, multicentre, cross-sectional design.

Methods: We used a questionnaire to investigate patient experiences ( = 359).

Humoral response to in inflammatory bowel disease, including correlation with immunomodulatory treatment.

Background And Aim: An abnormal immune response to intestinal bacteria has been observed in Crohn's disease (CD). infection incidence and severity are increased in CD, but reports on the humoral response have provided conflicting results. We aimed to shed light on the possible role of C.
