Alteraciones emocionales y necesidades psicológicas de pacientes en una Unidad de Cuidados Intensivos
2007
Desde el momento en que se diagnostica una enfermedad cuyo tratamiento va a requerir un ingreso hospitalario para la realización de una intervención quirúrgica, tanto el paciente como sus familiares o cuidadores primarios se ven implicados en un proceso durante el cual pueden experimentar diversas alteraciones emocionales. El objetivo de este trabajo se centra en la descripción de los diferentes problemas psicológicos y las necesidades manifestadas por los pacientes que precisan, como parte del proceso de tratamiento y control de la recuperación, ser ingresados en una Unidad de Cuidados Intensivos (UCI). Durante su estancia en la UCI, las alteraciones emocionales citadas con mayor frecuenci…
Patients' and therapists' experiences of general change mechanisms during bug-in-the-eye and delayed video-based supervised cognitive-behavioral ther…
2016
Objective This secondary analysis of a randomized controlled trial investigated whether bug-in-the-eye (BITE) supervision (live computer-based supervision during a psychotherapy session) affects the manner in which patients and therapists experience general change mechanisms (GCMs) during cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT). Method A total of 23 therapists were randomized either to the BITE condition or the control condition (delayed video-based [DVB] supervision). After each session, both patients (BITE: n = 19; DVB: n = 23) and therapists (BITE: n = 11; DVB: n = 12) completed the Helping Alliance Questionnaire (HAQ) and the Bernese Post Session Report (BPSR). The HAQ total score and the 3 …
Open dialogues with good and poor outcomes for psychotic crises: examples from families with violence.
2002
In Open Dialogue the first treatment meeting occurs within 24 hr afer contact and includes the social network of the patient.

In good outcomes, the clients had both interactional and semantic dominance, and the dialogue tookplace in a symbolic language and in a dialogical form. Already at the first meeting, in the good outcome cases, the team responded to the client’s words in a dialogical way, but in the …

Determinants of diet and physical Activity (DEDIPAC): a summary of findings
2017
The establishment of the Determinants of Diet and Physical Activity (DEDIPAC) Knowledge Hub, 2013 – 2016, was the first action taken by the ‘ Healthy Diet for a Healthy Life ’ European Joint Programming Initiative. DEDIPAC aimed to provide better insight into the determinants of diet, physical activity and sedentary behaviour across the life course, i.e. insight into the causes of the causes of important, non-commu nicable diseases across Europe and beyond. DEDIPAC was launched in late 2013, and delivered its final report in late 2016. In this paper we give an overview of what was achieved in terms of furthering measurement and monitoring, providing overviews of the state-of-the-art in the …
Participatory Ergonomics: A Model for the Prevention of Occupational Musculoskeletal Disorders
2009
La ergonomía participativa es una estrategia de intervención sobre los riesgos por carga física en los lugares de trabajo escasamente conocida en España, aunque en otros países se cuenta con numerosas experiencias y evidencias en este campo. Son varias las razones que justifican su interés. En primer lugar, aborda una de las categorías de riesgos laborales que mayor impacto tiene sobre la salud de los trabajadores en la mayoría de países, tanto en términos de incidencia, como de prevalencia o incapacidad. En segundo lugar, el principio básico de la ergonomía participativa es la capacitación de los trabajadores para que participen tanto en la identificación de los riesgos y daños a la salud …
Para una historia de la administración italiana. Del Estado liberal al Estado fascista
2018
The origins of the Italian Public Administration date back to a time prior to the political birth of Italy. Its history follows an itinerary based on gradual modifications in correspondence with economic, social, political and cultural changes. Between the 19th and the 20th Century, the Italian Public Administration played several roles. Going from being a political instrument to a means of social intervention and/or a vehicle of economic direction, the Italian Public Administration drew its own structures and modified its own roles, according with the constitutional development that leaded Italy from the liberal State to the fascist State. But there was also a technical continuity, which p…

Se consideraron como variables finales la reincidencia oficial y el riesgo de reincidencia y como variables proximales la intención de cambio, la asunción de responsabilidad, la adherencia al tratamiento y el compromiso con la intervención. No se encontraron diferencias entre participantes e…
Long-term outcomes of percutaneous coronary interventions or coronary artery bypass grafting for left main coronary artery disease in octogenarians (…
2014
Percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with drug-eluting stents is an accepted alternative to surgery for the treatment of unprotected left main coronary artery (ULMCA) disease, but the long-term outcome in elderly patients is unclear. Aim of our study was to compare the clinical outcomes of octogenarians with ULMCA disease treated either with PCI with drug-eluting stents or coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). The primary study end point was the composite of death, cerebrovascular accident, and myocardial infarction at follow-up. A total of 304 consecutive patients with ULMCA stenosis treated with PCI or CABG and aged 80 years were selected and analyzed in a large multinational regist…
