The HIE-ISOLDE post accelerator at CERN has recently come online, en- abling the use of radioactive ion beams with energies of up to 10 MeV/u. An active target gaseous detector is under development for use in some of the experiments. The first investigation of the electron amplification stage with gas electron multipliers has been performed. To this end, a small prototype GEM detector was built an

Tonsillektomi och tonsillektomi i kombination med adenoidektomi förknippas med svår postoperativ smärta, blödning, PONV och oro. Intresset att utvärdera dessa faktorer efter ett standardiserat vårdprogram ledde till denna studie. Syftet var att belysa det postoperativa välbefinnandet hos barn som genomgått tonsillektomi och tonsillektomi/adenoidektomi. Informationen för studien inhämtades från for
