Ovary lanceolate, about 1.7 mm long, light green. Fruits and seeds not seen. All measurements from fresh type material.</p> <p> <b>Phenology:</b> — <i>Hoya rotundiflora</i> is commonly seen flowering in cultivation during the summer months, which is consistent with the flowering periods of plants from a monsoonal area such as south Myanmar. A similar flowering season has been observed for <i>Hoya pandurata</i> Tsiang (1939: 125) and <i>H. chinghungensis</i> (Tsiang & P.T.Li) Gilbert <i>et al.</i> (1995: 9) both originating from this geographical area (personal observations).</p> <p> <b>Habitat and distribution:</b> —Little is known about the original habitat of this species. It has been observed to be difficult to grow and flower in constantly warm areas such as Bangkok (S. Somadee, personal communication) and therefore it is likely to inhabit higher elevated areas where winter temperatures are lower and where there is a greater disparity between day and night temperatures.</p> <p>The type plant can be traced back to a market in Sangklaburi in Kanchanaburi province, Thailand, where it was first found in 2005. The plant was collected near the border in neighboring Myanmar but the exact locality has been kept secret by the seller.</p> <p> <b>IUCN Red List category:</b> —Population size and distribution range of <i>Hoya rotundiflora</i> cannot be estimated, as it is so far known from only a single collection. Due to the high horticultural interest in <i>Hoya</i> it is surprising that no further collections belonging to this taxon have been made since its first introduction into cultivation in 2007. This may suggest that the species may have a very restricted distribution range and small population size containing a limited number of mature individuals or its habitat may be inaccessible, for example being on steep karst formations. Further, <i>Hoya</i> populations are often under pressure because of frequent collection to supply the horticultural trade and therefore <i>H. rotundiflora</i> is hereby suggested as vulnerable according to IUCN Red List criteria (IUCN 2001).</p> <p> <b>Additional specimen examined:</b> — <i>Ex Hort.</i>, 15 June 2010, <i>Rodda Hort 2010/1</i> (L, SING, TO).</p>Published as part of <i>Rodda, Michele & Simonsson, Nadhanielle, 2011, Hoya rotundiflora (Apocynaceae, Asclepiadoideae), a new horticulturally important species from Myanmar, pp. 37-43 in Phytotaxa 27</i> on pages 37-41, DOI: 10.11646/phytotaxa.27.1.4, <a href="http://zenodo.org/record/4894182">http://zenodo.org/record/4894182</a>

Patientens upplevelse av postoperativ smärta
Bakgrund: Postoperativ smärta uppkommer efter operation. En obehandlad akut smärta kan utvecklas till långvarig smärta och detta är den vanligaste orsaken till att patienter söker läkarvård. Sjuksköterskans ansvar är att lindra, bedöma och skatta smärta hos patienter. Ett ömsesidigt förtroende kan underlätta arbetet, emellertid blir enbart hälften av patienterna på en avdelning delaktiga i sin smärtbehandling. Patientens egna uppfattningar, tidigare erfarenheter och beskrivning av smärta bör tas på allvar. Studiens teoretiska referensram är Joyce Travelbees teori där huvudkomponenten innefattar förståelse för vad som händer i interaktionen mellan patienten och sjuksköterskan. Vårdlidande kan uppstå om patienten förlorar kontroll, vilket är vanligt förekommande inom vården. Smärta är ett exempel på en situation när patienten tappar kontroll över situationen. Syfte: Syftet var att beskriva patienters upplevelse av postoperativ smärta. Metod: Litteraturstudie av kvalitativa artiklar genomförd i databaserna Pubmed, CINAHL, PsycINFO. Totalt inkluderades 10 stycken vetenskapliga artiklar. Resultat: Generellt upplevde patienter postoperativ smärta fysiskt. Kroppsliga förnimmelser var kopplade till smärtans karaktär, intensitet och varaktighet. Patienterna upplevde att smärtan begränsade vardagliga livet genom svårigheter att utföra aktivitet och sämre sömn. Patientens psykiska upplevelse präglades av rädsla och oro. Patienter upplevde att vårdpersonalens bemötande hade en inverkan på förtroendet. Tidigare erfarenhet och kunskap av smärta påverkade hur patienter hanterade smärta. Den farmakologiska och icke- farmakologiska smärtlindringen upplevdes positivt och negativt. Slutsats:Patienter upplever smärtans karaktär, varaktighet, intensitet och lokalisation individuellt. Förtroendet för vårdpersonal, deras bemötande och attityd har en betydelsefull inverkan på patienternas postoperativa smärtupplevelse. Tidigare erfarenheter av smärtlindring och relationen till vårdpersonal påverkar patienters inställning gentemot analgetika. Nyckelord: lidande, postoperativ smärta, smärtbedömning, smärtlindring, upplevelse.Background: Postoperative pain emerge after surgery. Untreated acute pain can develop into chronic pain. It’s the most common cause for patients to seek medical treatment. It’s the nurse's responsibility to ease and evaluate pain among patients. Mutual trust can help make these responsibilities easier, though only half of the patient in a caring unit gets to be involved in their pain-treatment. Patients opinions, earlier experiences and descriptions of pain must be taken seriously. The theoretical reference frame of this study is Joyce Travelbee’s theory, where the main component includes the understanding of the interaction between patients and nurses. Suffering in healthcare can develop if the patient loses control, which is common in health care. Pain is an example of a situation when a patient loses control over of the situation. Aim: To describe patients experiences of postoperative pain. Method: A literature study of 10 qualitative articles, found in Pubmed, CINAHL and PsycINFO. Results: Patients generally experienced their postoperative pain physically. The experience related to the pains character, intensity and durability. The pain was often perceived to restrict everyday-life by bringing difficulties performing exercises and resulted in deficient sleep. The physical experience where tinged by fear and anxiety. The healthcare professional’s treatment towards patients had an impact on the relationships trust-status. Earlier experiences and knowledge about pain affected how patients handled their pain. Pharmacological and nonpharmacological pain treatment were experienced as both positive and negative. Conclusion: Patients experiences the character of the pain, as well as the intensity and durability, individually varying. Trust towards healthcare staff, their treatment and attitude, had an impact on the postoperative pain experience. Earlier experiences of pharmacological treatments and the relationship with staff impacted patients attitude towards analgesics. Keywords: Experience, painassessment, pain relief, postoperative pain, suffering

The music Groupa performs combines older traditions with contemporary impulses and future potential. The very special sound associated with Groupa’s music has its sources in tunes including the halling, the waltz, polskas of both old and new varieties, all performed with furious enegy and a strain of blue notes. The members of Groupa give the music free rein and new color, as they untiringly pursue the path of providing each other with new inspiration for shifting their music into new dimensions.
