Nursing: more used medicines in the emergency rooms of hospitals
2007
El Servicio de Urgencias del C.H.G.U.V. cuenta con una plantilla de 84 Enfermeros/as. Una parte considerable de ellos es personal de nueva incorporación, de ahí que sea prioritaria la elaboración de protocolos de actuación. La administración de medicación intravenosa es sin duda una de las técnicas de mayor aplicación en los pacientes que acuden a Urgencias, que en nuestro Hospital oscila entre 550-600 atenciones diarias. Por ello nos planteamos, mediante la realización de reuniones de grupo, la elaboración del presente trabajo con el objetivo de elaborar un manual informativo sobre la medicación más habitual utilizada en nuestro Servicio de Urgencias; indicaciones, contraindicaciones, dilu…
Is backward disequilibrium in the elderly caused by an abnormal perception of verticality? A pilot study
2007
International audience; OBJECTIVE: We hypothesised that backward disequilibrium (BD), defined by a posterior position of the centre of mass with respect to the base of support, could be caused by a backward tilt in the perception of verticality. METHODS: The relationship between BD, the perception of verticality, and the history of falls in 25 subjects aged 84.5+/-7.4 years was analysed. An original ordinal scale, the BD scale (BDS), was used to quantify BD. Postural (PV) and haptic verticals (HV) were measured in sagittal plane. RESULTS: BDS scores closely correlated with the number of falls (r = 0.81, p =10(-5)). The more the PV was tilted backward, the greater the BDS scores (r = -0.95, …
An empirically grounded agent based model for modeling directs, conflict detection and resolution operations in air traffic management
2017
We present an agent based model of the Air Traffic Management socio-technical complex system that aims at modeling the interactions between aircrafts and air traffic controllers at a tactical level. The core of the model is given by the conflict detection and resolution module and by the directs module. Directs are flight shortcuts that are given by air controllers to speed up the passage of an aircraft within a certain airspace and therefore to facilitate airline operations. Conflicts resolution between flight trajectories can arise during the en-route phase of each flight due to both not detailed flight trajectory planning or unforeseen events that perturb the planned flight plan. Our mod…
The prevention of occupational risks todomestic workers and home carers in spain: The need to ratify ilo conventions 189 and 190
2021
La prevención de los riesgos laborales y de la violencia y acoso en el trabajo es una más de las asignaturas pendientes en el tratamiento y protección del trabajo doméstico y de cuidados en España. Las escasas referencias normativas, así como la ausencia de una decidida política preventiva en este sector, contrastan con las previsiones de dos Convenios de la OIT: el Convenio 189, sobre el trabajo decente para las trabajadoras y los trabajadores domésticos, del año 2011, y el Convenio 190, sobre la violencia y el acoso, de 2019, por lo que la anunciada ratificación de ambos exige una mirada crítica y un cambio hacia una auténtica perspectiva preventiva de los riesgos laborales de las trabaja…

Studying the Response of Drivers against Different Collision Warning Systems: A Review
2017
International audience; The number of vehicle accidents is rapidly increasing and causing significant economic losses in many countries. According to the World Health Organization, road accidents will become the fifth major cause of death by the year 2030. To minimize these accidents different types of collision warning systems have been proposed for motor vehicle drivers. These systems can early detect and warn the drivers about the potential danger, up to a certain accuracy. Many researchers study the effectiveness of these systems by using different methods, including Electroencephalography (EEG). From the literature review, it has been observed that, these systems increase the drivers' …

La asistencia y hospitalidad a pobres, enfermos y peregrinos en la Baja Edad Media en el Camino Real de Valencia a Zaragoza
2011
Los hospitales medievales han sido y son estudiados atendiendo a diversos fenómenos: epidemiológico, sanitario, político, social, económico, etc. Sin embargo, las funciones propias asistenciales desempeñadas en estas instituciones durante la Baja Edad Media no constituyen una fuerza documental como son las perspectivas ya citadas. Más dificultades encontramos para definir quienes prestaban esa asistencia, hombres, mujeres, laicos, religiosos, sanadores, médicos, físicos, sangradores, enfermeros/as, parteras, hospitaleros/as, voluntarios/as, etc., dado que los problemas se circunscriben principalmente a la ausencia de registros y de profesiones regladas adscritas a las tareas de curar y cuid…
Analysis of Protected Accidental Transients in the EFIT Reactor With the RELAP5 Thermal-Hydraulic Code
2008
The European Facility for Industrial Transmutation (EFIT) is aimed at demonstrating the feasibility of transmutation process through the Accelerator Driven System (ADS) route on an industrial scale. The conceptual design of this reactor of about 400 MW thermal power is under development in the frame of the European EUROTRANS Integrated Project of the EURATOM Sixth Framework Program (FP6). EFIT is a pool-type reactor cooled by forced circulation of lead in the primary system where the heat is removed by steam generators installed inside the reactor vessel. The reactor power is sustained by a spallation neutron source supplied by a proton beam impinging on a lead target at the core centre. A …
