School nurse's experience of meeting with students with eating disorder : qualitative content analysis (English)
Abstract [sv]

Bakgrund: Ätstörningar är komplexa och allvarliga sjukdomar som innefattar anorexia nervosa, hetsätningsstörning, bulimia nervosa och ospecificerade ätstörningar. Riskfaktorer och symtombilden till ätstörningar utvecklas vanligtvis under grundskolan, men själva sjukdomen gör sig tydlig under tonåren. Därför har skolsköterskor som kontinuerligt möter elever i skolmiljön en viktig position för att identifiera och möta elever med ätstörning.

Syfte: Att få en fördjupad kunskap kring skolsköterskans erfarenheter av att möta elever med ätstörning.

Metod: En kvalitativ intervjustudie med induktiv ansats används i studien. Semistrukturerade intervjuer med åtta skolsköterskor verksamma i grundskolan utfördes. Resultatet analyserades med en kvalitativ innehållsanalys i syfte att presentera och analysera data.

Resultat: Skolsköterskor som intervjuades har uppgett att de sällan kom i kontakt med elever med ätstörningar, de var svåra att upptäcka. Detta blev problematiskt då de ansågatt tidig identifiering var betydelsefullt för att arbeta förebyggande och hälsofrämjande. Dessutom upplevde skolsköterskorna sig som begränsade på grund av bristande samtalsteknik och organisatoriska förutsättningar.

Slutsats: Elever med ätstörningar kan vara svåra att identifiera. Skolsköterskor är beroende av sin kompetens samt samtalsteknik för att kunna hantera och stötta eleverna. Skolsköterskorna upplevde sig dessutom begränsade av organisatoriska skäl som resursbrist, avsaknad av stöd från övriga professioner inom elevhälsan, tidsbrist samt sekretess.

Abstract [en]

Background: Eating disorders are complex and serious diseases that include anorexia nervosa, binge eating disorder, bulimia nervosa and unspecified eating disorders. Risk factors and the symptom of eating disorders usually develop during primary school, but the disease itself becomes apparent during adolescence. Therefore, school nurses who continuously meet students in the school environment have an important position to identify and meet students with an eating disorder.

Aim: To gain an in-depth knowledge of the school nurse's experience of meeting students with an eating disorder.

Method: A qualitative interview study with an inductive approach is used in the study. Semi-structured interviews with eight school nurses active in primary school were conducted. The results was analyzed with a qualitative content analysis in order to present and analyze data.

Results: School nurses who were interviewed stated that they rarely came into contact with students with eating disorders, they were difficult to detect. This became problematic as they considered early identification as important for working on prevention and health promotion. School nurses felt limited due to a lack of conversational techniques and organizational conditions.

Conclusion: Students with eating disorders can be difficult to identify. School nurses are dependent on their skills and conversational techniques to be able to handle and support the students. The school nurses also felt limited for organizational reasons such as lack of resources, lack of support from other professions in student health, lack of time and confidentiality.
