Worldwide Techniques and Outcomes in Robot-assisted Minimally Invasive Esophagectomy (RAMIE): Results From the Multicenter International Registry
2022
OBJECTIVE: This international multicenter study by the Upper GI International Robotic Association aimed to gain insight in current techniques and outcomes of RAMIE worldwide.BACKGROUND: Current evidence for RAMIE originates from single-center studies, which may not be generalizable to the international multicenter experience.METHODS: Twenty centers from Europe, Asia, North-America, and South-America participated from 2016 to 2019. Main endpoints included the surgical techniques, clinical outcomes, and early oncological results of ramie.RESULTS: A total of 856 patients undergoing transthoracic RAMIE were included. Robotic surgery was applied for both the thoracic and abdominal phase (45%), o…
Acceso a la innovación farmacéutica en cáncer. Análisis sistemático
2022
Los precios de los fármacos oncológicos están creciendo de manera muy pronunciada y junto a un aumento considerable de la incidencia de esta patología, hacen que sea necesario abordar el tema de la asequibilidad, equidad y calidad del cuidado de la salud en cáncer si no queremos que los diferentes sistemas nacionales de salud entren en bancarrota. Se han generado muchas iniciativas cuyo objetivo es evaluar el beneficio clínico de las intervenciones y así, se financien aquellas intervenciones que aporten un mayor valor tanto para los pacientes oncológicos como para la sociedad en general. Esta tesis realiza un análisis de las diferentes herramientas e iniciativas puestas en marcha por los si…
FA04.03: MIE VERSUS RAMIE: PROMISING RESULTS OF A SINGLE-CENTER AND SINGLE-SURGEON ANALYSIS
2018
Abstract Background Robot assisted surgery for esophageal cancer is rapidly increasing, especially high-volume centers with access to a robot. The fully robotic minimally invasive esophagectomy using 4 robotic arms in the abdomen and thorax (RAMIE4) is performed as standard procedure in our department. In this analysis we compare the results of our first 50 RAMIE4 procedures with our last 50 fully minimally-invasive esophagectomies (MIE), which was our standard prior the robotic era. Methods Between April 2016 and March 2018, the data from 100 consecutive patients with esophageal carcinoma undergoing modified Ivor-Lewis esophagectomy, performed by the same surgeon using the identical intrat…
The education power of immigrant associations in multicultural schools
2010
With this qualitative research we are trying to know the collaborative capacity and contributions that Immigrant Associations could do to the schools that form part of a social context characterised by the recent and massive arrival of immigrants of Maghrebian, Sub-Sahara, South America, European Union, and East Europe origin. The sample constituted by 55 immigrants that are members of Immigrant Associations, 16 teachers and 16 directors of schools, makes us to think about the role the Immigrant Associations could play in the education centres. The information coming out from immigrants and teachers shows up that the participation of associations, besides to do a good intercultural work and…
Robot-assisted and conventional minimally invasive esophagectomy are associated with better postoperative results compared to hybrid and open transth…
2021
BACKGROUND Currently 4 surgical techniques are performed for transthoracic esophagectomy (open esophagectomy (OE), hybrid esophagectomy (HE), conventional minimally invasive esophagectomy (MIE) and robot assisted minimally invasive esophagectomy (RAMIE). Aim of this study was to compare these 4 different esophagectomy approaches regarding postoperative complications and short term oncologic outcomes. METHODS Between 2008 and 2019, consecutive patients who underwent esophagectomy with gastric conduit reconstruction were included in this single center study. The primary outcome of this study was the incidence of postoperative complications. RESULTS Overall 422 patients (OE (n = 107), HE (n = …
PS02.018: MINIMALLY INVASIVE ESOPHAGECTOMY (MIE): FROM HYBRID, TO FULLY MINIMALLY-INVASIVE (MIE) AND TO ROBOTIC ASSISTED MIE (RAMIE): A SINGLE SURGEO…
2018
Abstract Background The incidence of esophageal carcinoma is increasing in the western world and esophageal resection is the essential therapy depending on the tumor stage. Several studies report advantages of minimally invasive esophagectomies (MIE) versus conventional open procedures. The use of totally MIE (thoraco- and laparoscopic) or robotic assisted MIE (RAMIE) compared to the hybrid approaches remain unclear. Methods Between July 2015 and August 2017, the data of 75 patients with esophageal carcinoma were prospectively registered. 25 were treated with a hybrid MIE (hybrid), another 25 with a totally MIE (MIE) and another 25 with a robotic assisted MIE (RAMIE). All patients were oper…
Transhumanistas y Bioconservadores en torno al dopaje genético
2013
En el presente texto proponemos una reflexión sobre uso de tecnologías genéticas que aumentan el rendimiento deportivo como futuro campo de investigación de una Neuroética social. Este problema, que se ha dado en llamar “dopaje genético”, congrega a su alrededor un debate entre los partidarios del Bioconservadurismo y del Transhumanismo. Expondremos la concepción de dos importantes representantes del Transhumanismo (J. Savulescu y C. Tamburrini) y de dos conocidos partidarios del Bioconservadurismo (M. Sandel y R. L. Simon), a fin de subrayar la importancia de este debate y las futuras implicaciones en la mejora del rendimiento físico, cognitivo y educacional a las que se deberá hacer fren…
Antecedentes y evolución de la calidad del empleo de los titulados universitarios
2015
Los recientes cambios en el mercado laboral y en la universidad han fomentado que la transición al mercado laboral de los titulados sea cada vez más compleja y precaria. En este contexto, nos preguntamos qué factores de los titulados universitarios favorecen la adquisición de empleos de calidad y el desarrollo temprano de su carrera profesional. Para ello, en la presente tesis se plantea un doble objetivo: por un lado, analizar la influencia que tienen diversos factores relacionados con la dedicación al trabajo durante los estudios y con la empleabilidad en la obtención de un empleo de calidad. Por otro lado, analizar el rol que ejerce el ajuste entre estudios y trabajo en la evolución de l…
Measuring readiness for entrepreneurship: An information tool proposal
2016
Abstract A profound review of the literature on entrepreneurship reveals that it does not exist a specific information tool to measure the individuals’ readiness for entrepreneurship. The purpose of this research has been building such kind of instrument to estimate the individuals’ readiness for entrepreneurship. Its design takes in consideration the inclusion of the main variables identified by the literature as those most associated with entrepreneurial profiles. These variables have been grouped into three categories: sociological, psychological and managerial-entrepreneurial. Each group provides batteries of items which are evaluated thanks to a specific scoring system. The final objec…
Debate académico de puertas abiertas como herramienta para estimular el pensamiento crítico y la orientación científica: una experiencia piloto
2018
Se presenta una experiencia piloto realizada durante la primavera de 2018 en el Jardí Botànic de la Universitat de València. La experiencia reunió a 24 estudiantes de las titulaciones de Sociología, Educación Primaria y Psicología de la misma universidad (6 estudiantes de cada titulación), más 6 estudiantes de diferentes titulaciones académicas, incluyendo máster y doctorado. El objetivo principal del estudio piloto es analizar la percepción y la efectividad de un seminario de debate académico llevado a cabo al aire libre, y con la participación de alumnos de diferentes ámbitos académicos. Se organizó en tres sesiones de tres horas cada una, con una distribución preestablecida de roles entr…
