Pudeur, couple et cancer
2021
La pudeur ne fait pas partie des catégories de la sémiologie médicale. Elle ne fait pas davantage partie des compétences exigibles pour de bonnes pratiques professionnelles, pas plus que des références éthiques qui encadrent la visée d’un travail soignant bon et juste. Mais pourtant, pourrait-on s’en passer ? Quelle attention manifeste-t-elle lorsqu’elle concerne non seulement la pudeur du soignant ou du soigné, mais la pudeur du couple affecté par le cancer de l’un d’entre eux ?

When the healthcare does not follow the evidence: The case of the lack of early intervention programs for psychosis in Spain
2017
Abstract There is now sufficient evidence to support the importance of interventions in the early stages of psychosis. The delay in the detection and treatment of the first-episode psychosis is related to a lower and slower recovery, as well as a higher risk of relapse. Despite this fact, early intervention units or teams are still not regularly implemented in mental health service settings in Spain. In this opinion article, a review is presented of the main arguments for defending the need to implement these programmes and strategies in order to achieve this aim. There are a number of programmes for early intervention for psychosis currently working in other countries, with a therapeutic p…

It makes them uneasy with regard to their personality, their corporality and their life balance, and leaves long-lasting effects on their experience as a patient. The development of adaptation strategies and resources to deal with chronic pain is therefore essential.
Chronic pain management in non-oncologic patients: multicentric study on adult patients referring to the centers for pain management in the Lazio Reg…
2013
Introduction Chronic pain is a complex phenomenon usually associated with psychological stress, which implies falling back on the National Health Service and reducing work capacities, indeed affecting Activities of Daily Living. Studies based on efficacy have identified the multidisciplinary approach as the most effective means to obtain therapeutic results. These programs can be provided by the Centers for Pain Management (CPMs), where multidisciplinary teams are likely to provide the necessary expertise to outline the best treatments for the diagnosis and management of chronic pain. To date, very little information is available on the kind of assistance and support these centers can provi…
Current status of the salutogenesis in Spain. Fifteen years of research
2014
Tras siglos de visión patogénica del cuidado de la salud, en los años 70 el sociólogo y médico Aaron Antonovsky introdujo un modelo de salud que con los años se ha convertido en un concepto establecido en la salud pública y la promoción de la salud, la ‘Salutogénesis’, que propone entender la salud como un continuo entre bienestar y enfermedad en lugar de una visión en que salud y enfermedad se excluyen mutuamente, coincidiendo con el actual enfoque de la Organización Mundial de la Salud. Este trabajo tiene como objetivo principal realizar una revisión y análisis de su estudio y utilización en España, donde va introduciéndose de forma progresiva, con más de 10 artículos publicados, una conf…
