AimThe aim of this study was to investigate experiences and needs in the transition from child to adult care in an outpatient clinic from the perspective of adolescents with juvenile idiopathic arthritis and their parents focusing on which aspects in the transition could ease the process.DesignA qualitative design with an inductive approach.MethodsInductive content analysis was used to analyse individual interviews with three parents and three adolescents from a rheumatology clinic in Denmark.ResultsThree descriptive categories emerged: “Information during transition,” “Personalized care” and “A change of roles.” The comparative analysis of the categories revealed two explanatory themes: “To move from something known to something unknown” and “To develop and change.” We found that preparation for transition, information of organisational and procedural changes when entering adult care, continuity and relationships with health professionals characterised by trust as well as involvement of adolescents and parents will ease the process of transition.

. (2011). The views of pre-and post-natal women and health professionals regarding gestational weight gain: an exploratory study. Sexual & Reproductive Healthcare, 2(1), pp. 43-48. doi: 10.1016/j.srhc.2010.10.004 This is the unspecified version of the paper.This version of the publication may differ from the final published version. Permanent Study DesignIn total, five focus groups were conducted with pregnant women (n=9), post-natal women (n=14) and health professionals (including midwives, n=7). The focus groups were transcribed verbatim and analysed thematically. Main Outcome MeasuresThe women's views regarding weight gain in pregnancy and what the health professionals' thoughts were concerning the current provision of care they provide to their patients regarding gestational weight gain. ResultsThe women expressed a lack of concern regarding their weight in pregnancy, and reported not receiving any information regarding what constitutes healthy gestational weight gain. The pregnant women reported not monitoring their weight and assumed they would lose weight post-natally through breastfeeding. The health professionals reported being aware of the women's beliefs, however lacked information to give to the women relating to healthy weight gain. ConclusionsIt is likely that the women lacked concern and knowledge regarding gestational weight gain due to not receiving information from their midwives and other health professionals regarding this issue. The health professionals were in turn unsure of what to advise women regarding appropriate gestational weight gain. By ensuring midwives and other health professionals have the knowledge and skills to discuss weight with pregnant women, the women in turn may be more motivated and confident in maintaining a healthy weight at this time.3

Purpose-To describe the attitudes and preferences of ethnically diverse new mothers on weight and exercise of women like them.Study Design and Methods-Exploratory, qualitative study. Forty-nine ethnically diverse women were interviewed during the first year following childbirth regarding beliefs about weight, choices of exercise, walking for exercise, perceived benefits, barriers, and facilitators of exercise. Content analysis techniques were used to analyze the data.Results-Weight was a significant concern for women, although the importance varied by race. New mothers reported that they would like to weigh less, and they endorsed walking for exercise. Common barriers to exercise were children and time constraints; health problems were also seen as a barrier to walking as a form of exercise. Scheduling the walk, and having a walking partner were factors which women said would facilitate walking for physical activity during the first year post childbirth.Clinical Implications-Since new mothers perceive walking a good form of exercise, nurses can use this information to help them plan a daily walking schedule to aid in weight loss and control postpartum. Nurses should also encourage new mothers to look for a walking partner, especially another new mother or a friend, to help them continue their physical activity during the first year after childbirth.
