Linn Höög was the winner of the best submitted research and presentation in the ACNAP category at the 2023 HFA meeting in Lisbon. She shares how her clinical experiences as a nurse lead her to being a nurse who creates the knowledge behind evidence based practice.

Top 3 Takeaways

1) Being a nurse researcher can expand your nursing role and identity

After completing bachelor’s degree in nursing science and a master’s degree in medical care, she started her started journey as a PhD-student in September 2022. Based on clinical observations and a desire to better inform people with heart failure she began to ask questions on the evidence behind the advice given to those with heart failure around fluid management. She found the area of fluid intake and fluid to have a lack of knowledge, a lack of evidence, and yet, still part of patient’s treatment. The area of her research field is based on a clinical problem and a significant problem for patients. She is based near Stockholm. She presented survey findings from her research at ESC HFA 2024 and was awarded the ACNAP winner for best nurse research. She is a former a former artistic gymnast and a 3-time Swedish champion in women’s ice hockey.
