Optimizando la primera y la siguiente intervención sobre la vía aérea.
Get PDFThe causes that originate an intervention on the airway can be variable depending on the context, with the main objective of effectively ensuring the delivery of oxygen, the anesthesiologist will use some of the most widespread and validated techniques to secure the airway, such as oro-tracheal intubation, the placement of a supra-glottic device, or the use of a face mask, and in the rare circumstance of no ventilation, no oxygen, an emergency frontal access to the neck should be implemented, in order to be able to to rebuild the oxygenation lost during the use of the above tools. At present, there are numerous devices to achieve effective ventilation and / or oro-tracheal intubation, different monitoring instruments, new drugs, different alternatives for the administration of oxygen and accumulated knowledge about the management of difficulties in the management of the pathway. air, which all together, positively impact patient safety. However, having many alternatives is not synonymous with success in airway management, if it is not possible to optimize each of the different interventions applied to the maximum. Next, we review the strategies provided by the bibliography on how to improve the first intubation attempt together with optimizations or better interventions on its management.Las causas que originan una intervención sobre la vía aérea pueden ser variables dependiendo del contexto, con el objetivo principal de asegurar en forma eficaz la entrega de oxígeno, el anestesiólogo utilizará alguna de las técnicas más difundidas y validadas para asegurar la vía aérea, como son la intubación oro-traqueal, la colocación de un dispositivo supra-glótico, o la utilización de la máscara facial, y en la extraña circunstancia de no ventilo, no oxígeno, se deberá implementar un acceso frontal al cuello de emergencia, para poder recomponer la oxigenación perdida durante el uso de las herramientas anteriores. En la actualidad, existen numerosos dispositivos para lograr una ventilación efectiva y/o intubación oro-traqueal, diferentes instrumentos de monitoreo, nuevos fármacos, distintas alternativas para la administración de oxígeno y conocimiento acumulado acerca del manejo de las dificultades en la gestión de la vía aérea, que todas en su conjunto, impactan positivamente en la seguridad del paciente. No obstante, el contar con muchas alternativas, no es sinónimo de éxito en el manejo de la vía aérea, si no es posible optimizar al máximo cada una de las diferentes intervenciones aplicadas. A continuación, revisamos las estrategias que arroja la bibliografía, acerca de cómo mejorar el primer intento de intubación junto a las optimizaciones o mejores intervenciones sobre la gestión de esta
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Variations on the Author
Get PDF“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Get PDFWe provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
Factores humanos, habilidades no técnicas y el manejo de la vía aérea
No full textEl estudio y la investigación de los factores humanos (FH) durante el desarrollo del proceso perioperatorio ha ganado popularidad en los últimos años. La forma en que los mismos se gestionan, tanto a nivel personal como del equipo de salud, han influenciado el resultado sobre el paciente, con mayor evidencia en situaciones de crisis, donde un manejo inadecuado del estrés por parte del equipo de salud y del profesional a cargo, aumenta la posibilidad de aparición de secuelas graves para el paciente. Los anestesiólogos son reconocidos por el manejo experto de la vía aérea (VA), combinando diferentes habilidades técnicas básicas y avanzadas de gestión de la misma, las cuales deben ser ejecutadas junto a otras habilidades no técnicas (HNT) e interactuando con los FH propios del personal que interviene. La presente revisión narrativa de la bibliografía hace foco en las distintas HNT y los FH presentes durante el manejo de la VA, su impacto en el resultado sobre el paciente y las estrategias que mencionan las diferentes guías de práctica clínica para mitigar sus déficits
Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
Factores humanos, habilidades no técnicas y el manejo de la vía aérea
Get PDFThe study and research of human factors (FH) during the development of the perioperative process has gained popularity in recent years. The way in which they are managed, both personally and by the health team, have influenced the outcome for the patient, with greater evidence in crisis situations, where inadequate stress management by the health team and the professional in charge, increases the possibility of the appearance of serious sequelae for the patient. Anesthesiologists are recognized for their expert management of the airway, combining different basic and advanced technical skills to manage it, which must be performed together with other non-technical skills (HNT) and interacting with the HFs of the anesthesiologist. staff involved. This narrative review of the literature focuses on the different NPHs and HFs present during airway management, their impact on patient outcomes, and the strategies mentioned in the different clinical practice guidelines to mitigate their deficits.El estudio y la investigación de los factores humanos (FH) durante el desarrollo del proceso perioperatorio ha ganado popularidad en los últimos años.

koamabayili/VECTRON-author-checklist: VECTRON author checklist
No full textWe have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
