The Path to Loneliness for Psychiatric Patients
Enduring loneliness has serious physical and mental health implications. Patients with mental health problems are at risk of experiencing problems related to loneliness. Therefore, it is important to increase knowledge about how loneliness is experienced and managed in this particular group. The aim of the study was to explore (1) psychiatric patients' experiences of different forms of loneliness, (2) associated problems, including difficulties w…
Caregivers’ Attitudes Toward Treatment Length for Persons in Swedish Opioid Agonist Treatment. A Qualitative Interview Study
Although opioid agonist treatment (OAT) has several beneficial effects, the issue of optimal treatment length remains unresolved. It is plausible that caregivers' attitudes toward treatment length are of importance to whether, how and when tapering off will take place. In this study, we investigated caregivers' attitudes toward treatment length by interviewing 15 caregivers from a variety of professions working in seven OAT treatment programs in …
How Adolescents Think When Responding to Alcohol-Related Questionnaires
Self-report questionnaires on alcohol use are commonly used in both research and in clinical work with adolescents, but little is known about how adolescent responders perceive and interpret them. This study explores how adolescents think while responding to two alcohol-related questionnaires. It also investigates whether the instruments can initiate self-reflective processes on alcohol use. Data were collected among adolescents visiting a center…
‘Sick and tired’
BACKGROUND: Meaningful and generalizable research depends on patients' willingness to participate. Studies often fail to reach satisfactory representativeness. OBJECTIVE: This paper aims to investigate reasons for not participating in research among young adult patients with psychiatric illness. METHOD: A quantitative cross-sectional study was performed based on questionnaires reported on by 51 psychiatric patients (14 males, 35 females and two u…
You are not alone – adolescents’ experiences of participation in a structured skills training group for ADHD
Little is known about how adolescents with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) experience participating in group therapy, an important factor to consider when developing treatment methods for this age group. This study aimed to explore how adolescents with ADHD experience participating in a structured skills training group program based on dialectical behavioral therapy. Semi‐structured interviews were conducted with 20 adolescents (1…
Improved and standardized method for assessing years lived with disability after burns and its application to estimate the non-fatal burden of disease of burn injuries in Australia, New Zealand and th…
This project established a method for more precise estimates of the YLDs of burns, as it is the only method adapted to the nature of burn injuries and their recovery. Compared to previous used methods, the INTEGRIS-burns method includes improved disability weights based on severity categorization of burn patients; a better substantiated proportion of patients with lifelong disability based; and, the application of burn specific recovery timeframe…
Overcoming Heroin Addiction without the Use of Pharmaceuticals
Although opioid maintenance treatment lowers mortality and has proven efficacy in reducing opioid use, it is not an option for every person with an opioid addiction. Studies of the experiences of those who have overcome their addiction without pharmaceuticals are rare, but vital to understanding the quitting process and how it can be facilitated. This study investigated what persons with a previous heroin addiction perceived as helpful when overc…
