The greatest contribution to medical science is the transformation from studying symptoms to studying their causes—the unrelenting legacy of Robert Koch and Louis Pasteur—and a causality perspective to approach a definition of SLE
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel, 2024-02-01)The basic initiative related to this study is derived from the fact that systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a unique and fertile system science subject. We are, however, still far from understanding its nature. It may be fair to indicate that we are spending more time and resources on studying the complexity of classified SLE than studying the validity of classification criteria. This study ... -

Overgangen fra intensivsykepleierstudent til kompetent intensivsykepleier- intensivsykepleieres erfaringer
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2024-04-29)Bakgrunn: Mangelen på intensivsykepleiere i Norge har ført til at flere studieplasser har blitt opprettet. Intensivsykepleiere må kunne integrere avansert teoretisk kunnskap med praktiske og mellommenneskelige ferdigheter for å kunne ta hånd om akutt og kritisk syke pasienter og deres pårørende. Det er lite kunnskap om hvordan nyutdannede intensivsykepleiere erfarer overgangen fra å være ... -
