This report intends to present a working method for the collection of data, which an incident commander can use at the scene of the accident during the rescue. This method contains both a general line of thought, as well as the use of different aids, with the purpose of facilitating the collecting of data. This should be well established with the person who performs the collection of data. Finally
Personal assistance - A qualitative study of the significance of the reform In 1994, a new law, Act Concerning Support and Service for Persons with Certain Functional Impairments (LSS) was implemented as a part of the Swedish welfare system. The purpose of the law is to assure safety for people in one of three target groups that are further defined in 1 §, LSS. The law gives people in these targe
Uppsatsen behandlar den öppna polisens användning av den okonventionella spaningsmetoden infiltration och även informatörsverksamheten i den mån denna tangerar förstnämnda metod. Infiltrationsåtgärder har företagits i utevaro av ett uttryckligt lagstöd vilket givit utrymme för skönsmässiga bedömningar, med avkall på rättssäkerheten som följd. Ovanstående blev upprinnelse till en anstormning av kri
Denna uppsats undersöker hur begreppet "original" ställs på kant i samband med adaptioner av litterära verk. Först klarläggs de teoretiska verktyg som sedan kommer appliceras på Cormac McCarthys roman No Country for Old Men för att ta reda på hur publiken som tar del av de olika verken, film som roman, i en viss ordning kommer betrakta det verk som tas del av först som ett original. Dett
Bolagsordningar och aktieägaravtal skapar en hel del rättsfrågor, både individuellt och ihop. Många problem rör rättshandlingarnas rättsverkningar och vad verkningarna innebär för aktieägarna, bolaget och övriga avtalsparter. Dessa rättsfrågor har utretts i denna text och särskild hänsyn tagits till hur skydd för svagare part formar och påverkar rättsverkningarna för bolagsordningen och aktieägaraArticles of association and shareholders’ agreements create many legal issues both individually and together. Many of the problems revolve around the legal effects of the acts; what the effects entail for the shareholders, the company and other contractors. These questions have been examined in this text and special regards have been given to how protection for weaker parts form and affect the leg
Popular Abstract in Swedish Det svenska samhället har under senare delen av 1900-talet påverkats och förändrats på grund av en ökad internationell migration. År 1950 var 2,8 % av den svenska befolkningen utrikesfödd; idag utgör de utrikesfödda 12,0 % av totalbefolkningen. Om även andragenerationens migranter (de som har en eller båda föräldrar utrikesfödda) räknas med utgör första och andrageneratAims: The general aim of this thesis was to describe and compare the group of foreign-born persons living in Sweden and native Swedes with regard to health development over time, thus studying the influence of migration on health. Methods: All four studies are based on data from Statistics Sweden (SCB) and the National Board of Health and Welfare, Centre for Epidemiology covering the period 1970?
It is estimated that about 30 000 people a year are successfully resuscitated after having suffered an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest in Europe. The number of patients that are successfully resuscitated after an in-hospital cardiac arrest is not known, but it can be assumed that this figure is even higher than that after an out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. The aim of the Swedish Resuscitation Counc
Glutamatergic transmission is an important factor in the development of neuronal death following transient cerebral ischemia. In this investigation the effects of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) and non-NMDA receptor antagonists on neuronal damage were studied in rats exposed to 10 min of transient cerebral ischemia induced by bilateral common carotid occlusion combined with hypotension. The animals w
Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCT-A) is a non-invasive, non-dye-based imaging modality that has the potential to enhance our understanding of retinal diseases. While this rapidly advancing imaging modality offers great potential, there is a need for community-wide understanding of the range of technologies and methods for interpreting the images, as well as a need to enhance understand
Peptide synthesis was carried out in a variety of organic solvents with low contents of water. The enzyme was deposited on the support material, celite, from an aqueous buffer solution. After evaporation of the water the biocatalyst was suspended in the reaction mixtures. The chymotrypsin-catalyzed reaction between Z-Phe-OMe and Leu-NH2 was used as a model reaction. Under the conditions used ([Z-P
The blood flow in rat liver was measured with Xe-133. Three techniques for administering the activity to the liver were employed: injection via the portal vein, via the hepatic artery, and directly into the liver parenchyma. Use of intraparenchymal injection of Xe-133 gave 60% higher flow values than by portal or arterial injection techniques. Mean flow index (k1) was for portal injection 0.52, fo
Contemporary ghost stories can be mediated through television series that familiarize viewers with the idea of supernatural/spiritual phenomena, and present a way of witnessing, experiencing and dealing with such phenomena. TheSwedish TV series Det Okända(The Unknown) is an example of such a production. A –presumably –spiritual phenomenon is tailored to fit a popular culture format and is served t
One of the most important routes to employment within the social welfare sector worldwide is higher education, which equips students not only with the knowledge for employment, but with the tools to use and build on this knowledge. During the last few decades there has been an academic drift in professional education, especially for many shorter professional programmes. Many of these shorter progr
BACKGROUND: The risk of cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) is found to be substantially increased after organ transplantation. The association with specific immunosuppressive regimens has been previously investigated, but results are not concordant. We aimed to clarify the relationship between separate immunosuppressive drugs, drug load, timing and risk of post-transplant CSCC.METHODS: A pop
