Haemorrhagic Cerebrovascular Accident (CVA) Etiology and Case Report

2020

Abstract A haemorrhagic cerebrovascular accident refers to a spontaneous bleeding in the cerebral parenchyma, located either supratentorial or infratentorial, that occurs in the absence of a surgical or traumatic cause. The incidence is estimated at 12-15 new cases per 100.000 inhabitants per year. Intracranial haemorrhage is the third most frequent cause of stroke, the vast majority being represented by primary/hypertensive (spontaneous) intracerebral haemorrhage, ruptured saccular aneurysm, a vascular malformation or haemorrhage associated with the use of anticoagulants or thrombolytic agents. A cerebral tomography computer examination is the examination of choice in diagnosis of haemorrh…

Patient Care Approach Using Nursing Theories - Comparative Analysis of Orem’s Self-Care Deficit Theory and Henderson’s Model

2020

Abstract Nursing theories have been developed to provide guidance in clinical practice, so their knowledge by nurses is mandatory in order to provide advanced nursing care. This paper presents the relationships between the concepts and major assumptions of Henderson’s model and Orem’s theory and then their comparative analysis. Both, Henderson’s model and Orem’s theory of self-care deficit have a major impact, internationally, in education and research, but also in nursing practice, as a result of which their knowledge can open a new perspective on care, especially in countries where they are not well enough known.

Varhaiskasvatuspalvelut koronapandemian aikana

2021

Raportissa esitellään varhaiskasvatuksen lähiesihenkilöille syksyllä 2020 toteutetun kyselyn tuloksia varhaiskasvatuspalveluiden tuottamisesta koronaviruspandemian aikana. Normaalioloissa kansallinen lainsäädäntö määrittelee varhaiskasvatustoiminnan reunaehdot. Keväällä 2020 koronaviruspandemian vuoksi voimaan astuneen poikkeustilan aikana kunnat kuitenkin vapautettiin varhaiskasvatuslain mukaisesta varhaiskasvatuksen järjestämisvastuusta, mikäli lapsen vanhempien tai huoltajien oli mahdollista järjestää lapsen hoito muulla tavalla. Tässä tilanteessa kunnissa ja varhaiskasvatusyksiköissä tehtiin erilaisia ratkaisuja varhaiskasvatuksen toteuttamisesta ja tarjoamisesta kotihoitoon siirtyneill…

Receiving Continuous Antibiotic Prophylaxis

2020

Abstract Continuous antibiotic prophylaxis represents an initial management strategy for decreasing the risk of urinary tract infections in children with vesicoureteral reflux. A significant number of cases resolve spontaneously in time, reason for which continuous antibiotic prophylaxis is not required in every patient with this disorder. It is mandatory to select the patients who need continuous antibiotic prophylaxis according to their risk group. We do not have a lot of scientific evidences about what is better or not for these patients, but the main objective for the case management is to maintain the renal function, by minimizing the risk of pyelonephritis, renal scars and its consequ…

Periodontal Diseases in Diabetes Melitus - A Two Way Link? A Review of Literature

2020

Abstract Numerous studies in the last decades report a frequent association of marginal periodontal disease with some systemic metabolic disorders, such as diabetes or obesity. The prevalence of these diseases is growing alarmingly both globally and in our country. Recent data from the literature confirm that advanced forms of periodontal disease can influence the evolution of type 2 diabetes. This may provide a premise for better glycemic control.

Dos terapias conocidas podrían ser efectivas como adyuvantes en el paciente crítico infectado por COVID-19

2020

Resumen La neumonia causada por coronavirus, que se origino en Wuhan, China, a finales de 2019, se ha extendido por todo el mundo convirtiendose en una pandemia. Desafortunadamente, a dia de hoy no existe ninguna vacuna especifica para el virus COVID-19, y el tratamiento esta siendo de soporte con anadido de antivirales y otros farmacos, sin que hasta la fecha se haya evidenciado un beneficio claro. Muchos de estos pacientes se deterioran rapidamente y requieren ser intubados y ventilados mecanicamente, lo que esta provocando el colapso del sistema sanitario en muchos paises debido a la falta de ventiladores y de camas de criticos. En este documento revisamos dos terapias adyuvantes sencill…
