    Sykepleierstudenter opplever ofte at det er et gap mellom teorien som læres på skolen, og det de erfarer i praksis. Ferdighetstrening gjennom simulering kan fungere som en brobygger for å knytte sammen teori og praksis. Det kan øke studentenes praksisutbytte. I denne artikkelen beskriver vi våre erfaringer med å tilby tredjeårsstudenter simuleringstrening under praksisperioden i psykisk helsearbeid. Vi ser også på hvilken tilleggsverdi simuleringstrening kan gi utover ordinær praksis.publishedVersio

    Source at https://vkm.no/On 10. March 2006 , The Norwegian Food Safety Authority (Mattilsynet) decided that, on the basis of VKM’s previous risk assessment (2005), Nutramigen 1 with Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG) could not be marketed in Norway as medical foods for infants (0-4 months). In addition, The Norwegian Food Safety Authority (Mattilsynet) decided (08.

The Norwegian Food Safety Authority forwarded the appeal from the companies, asked the VKM Panel on biological hazards and the VKM Panel on nutrition, dietetic products, novel food and allergy, for a new risk assessment including the new data provided in the appeal.Basert på VKMs tidligere risikovurdering fra 2005, bestemte Mattilsynet 10. mars 2006 atNutramigen 1 med LGG ikke kunne markedsføres som næringsmiddel til spesielle medisinske formål (0-4 måneder) i Norge. I tillegg trakk Mattilsynet tilbake tillatelsen (08. november, 2006) til å markedsføre Nutramigen 2 med LGG, som er en melkeerstatning for spedbarn mellom fire og seks måneder som er allergiske mot kumelk og soyaproteiner. Den 13. desember 2006 Mead Johnson Nutritionals på vedtaket fra Mattilsynet. Mattilsynet videresendte klagen fra selskapene og ba VKMs faggrupper for hygiene og smittestoffer samt ernæring, dietetiske produkter, ny mat og allergi om å foreta en ny risikovurdering basert på nye data som er lagt frem i forbindelse med klagen

    <p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>The objective of the study is to improve general practitioners' diagnoses of adolescent depression. Major depression is ranked fourth in the worldwide disability impact.</p> <p>Method/Design</p> <p>Validation of 1) three key questions, 2) SCL-dep6, 3) SCL-10, 4) 9 other SCL questions and 5) WHO-5 in a clinical study among adolescents. The Composite International Diagnostic Interview (CIDI) is to be used as the gold standard interview. The project is a GP multicenter study to be conducted in both Norway and Denmark. Inclusion criteria are age (14–16) and fluency in the Norwegian and Danish language. A number of GPs will be recruited from both countries and at least 162 adolescents will be enrolled in the study from the patient lists of the GPs in each country, giving a total of at least 323 adolescent participants.</p> <p>Discussion</p> <p>The proportion of adolescents suffering from depressive disorders also seems to be increasing worldwide. Early interventions are known to reduce this illness. The earlier depression can be identified in adolescents, the greater the advantage. Therefore, we hope to find a suitable questionnaire that could be recommended for GPs.</p
