Methods: Mail questionnaires were sent to a nationally representative, random sample of Swedish school nurses (n=129). The questionnaire included structured and open-ended questions asking for school nurses' judgement of schoolchildren's health status; changes over the previous two years; estimation of schoolchildren's most common reasons for consulting the school nurse; and estimation of factors influencing schoolchildren's health. Results: Swedish school nurses judged schoolchildren's mental health to have deteriorated during the previous two years with increasing health complaints, especially among girls and in disadvantaged housing areas. Disturbed family relations were considered as one important explanatory factor. Girls were more inclined to consult school nurses with subjective health complaints. Boys more often consulted the nurses with physical injuries. Conclusions: School nurses work closely with the children and meet them continuously during the school age period. They have a genuine knowledge of schoolchildren's health, which should be used even more, both in research and practice. The results may be applicable in other countries with similarly organized school health systems. <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/1403494808090671","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2008,8,7]],"date-time":"2008-08-07T00:45:16Z","timestamp":1218069916000},"page":"690-697","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":22,"title":["Schoolchildren's health as judged by Swedish school nurses \u2014 a national survey"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"36","author":[{"given":"Eva K.","family":"Clausson","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Kristianstad University, Department of Health Sciences, SE-291 88 Kristianstad, Sweden, , Nordic School of Public Health, Box 12133, SE-402 42 G\u00f6teborg, Sweden"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Lennart","family":"K\u00f6hler","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Nordic School of Public Health, Box 12133, SE-402 42 G\u00f6teborg, Sweden"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Agneta","family":"Berg","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Kristianstad University, Department of Health Sciences, SE-291 88 Kristianstad, Sweden"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2008,8,6]]},"reference":[{"key":"atypb1","first-page":"4","author":"World Health Organization, Europe.","year":"2004","journal-title":"Health policy for children and adolescents"},{"key":"atypb2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1746-1561.1999.tb06430.x"},{"key":"atypb3","volume-title":"Health and well being of children in the five Nordic countries in 1984 and 1996 [dissertation]","author":"Berntsson L.","year":"2000"},{"key":"atypb4","unstructured":"Danielsson M.
