RESUMEN
Behavioural surveys among men who have sex with men (MSM) are important for HIV surveillance. The Danish 2006 Sex Life Survey was carried out as a self administered questionnaire, which was distributed at gay venues and bars and posted on the internet. The questionnaire was completed by 3,141 MSM. We describe the methods, the respondent group and the results of the 2006 Sex Life Survey, and discuss it implications. The main finding of this survey is that 33% of the respondents have practised unsafe sex, defined as unprotected anal intercourse with one or more partners of different or unknown HIV status. In the three previous Sex Life Surveys of 2000, 2001 and 2002, this figure was between 26% and 28%.

The purpose of the study was to assess the level of information, anxiety and satisfaction with treatment and care among patients undergoing general anaesthesia. A questionnaire was answered by 406 patients. Seventeen criteria comprising various aspects of the total course of anaesthesia were defined to characterise a "satisfactory anaesthetic experience". After the preoperative visit 65% of the nervous patients were less nervous. Only 47% were informed of possible postanaesthetic side effects. Although 86% were "satisfied" with the treatment and care, only 36% met the criteria of satisfaction. The main problems were anxiety (especially fear of not waking up again), nausea and pain after waking up. We conclude that patients are not told enough about anaesthesia and side effects. Many patients, particularly the younger patients and the female patients, are afraid of anaesthesia.

Organizationally based CNSs function in a wide variety of management structures. A review of the literature suggests that the steady-state career orientation typifies CNSs and is therefore compatible with the application of self-management strategies. With this in mind the Long Beach Memorial Medical Center Collegial Model for Clinical Nurse Specialists was developed and components were defined as a self-governing strategy for CNSs within a complex tertiary medical center.
