    Los valores fundantes son la base para el desarrollo de ciudadanos críticos, pensantes y constructores de su propio conocimiento, son la herramienta para beneficiar el desarrollo personal, académico y social de toda una comunidad. De tal manera, la presente investigación pretende, identificar la importancia de implementar nuevas alternativas de aprendizaje para la formación de los valores fundantes de los niños y las niñas del grado primero del Liceo y preescolar la Divina Infancia, teniendo en cuenta que existe un desarraigo cultural y ético de los valores, lo cual promueve prácticas individualistas, capitalistas y mecanizadas que afectan el desarrollo personal y social de los niños y las niñas. Para dar respuesta, se tuvo en cuenta la pregunta orientadora ¿Qué estrategias implementar para fomentar y promover el aprendizaje de la educación en valores de los niños y las niñas del grado primero del Liceo y Preescolar la ¿Divina Infancia?, leyes y normativas que pretenden brindar un desarrollo integral en la primera infancia, la implementación de las comunidades de aprendizaje y el método Waldorf como estrategias didácticas alternativas que ayudarán a la promoción y vivencia de los valores fundantes a partir de una investigación descriptiva, utilizando instrumentos y técnicas cualitativas, con un enfoque descriptivo para la recolección de datos, obteniendo como resultado la aplicación y perspectivas de los valores en niños y niñas del grado primero y sobre todo la vinculación de una propuesta que buscará fomentar los valores fundantes integrando a todos los agentes educativos.The founding values are the basis for the development of critical citizens, thinking and builders of their own knowledge, they are the tool to benefit the personal, academic and social development of an entire community. In this way, the present research aims to identify the importance of implementing new learning alternatives for the formation of the founding values of the boys and girls of the first grade of the Lyceum and Preschool La Divina Infancia, taking into account that there is a cultural uprooting and ethical values, which promotes individualistic, capitalist and mechanized practices that affect the personal and social development of boys and girls. In order to answer, the guiding question was taken into account: What strategies to implement to encourage and promote the learning of education in values of boys and girls of the first grade of the Lyceum and Preschool La Divina Infancia ?, laws and regulations that are intended to provide comprehensive development in early childhood, the implementation of learning communities and the waldorf method as alternative teaching strategies that will help to promote and experience the founding values and the use of qualitative instruments and techniques with a descriptive approach for data collection , obtaining as a result the application and perspectives of the values in boys and girls of the first grade and above all the linking of a proposal that will seek to promote the founding values by integrating all educational agents

    Publisher Copyright: © 2020 The Author(s). Copyright: Copyright 2020 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.Background: Concerns exist regarding the prevalence and impact of unnecessary oxygen use in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). We examined this issue in patients with ARDS enrolled in the Large observational study to UNderstand the Global impact of Severe Acute respiratory FailurE (LUNG SAFE) study. Methods: In this secondary analysis of the LUNG SAFE study, we wished to determine the prevalence and the outcomes associated with hyperoxemia on day 1, sustained hyperoxemia, and excessive oxygen use in patients with early ARDS. Patients who fulfilled criteria of ARDS on day 1 and day 2 of acute hypoxemic respiratory failure were categorized based on the presence of hyperoxemia (PaO2 > 100 mmHg) on day 1, sustained (i.e., present on day 1 and day 2) hyperoxemia, or excessive oxygen use (FIO2 ≥ 0.60 during hyperoxemia). Results: Of 2005 patients that met the inclusion criteria, 131 (6.5%) were hypoxemic (PaO2 < 55 mmHg), 607 (30%) had hyperoxemia on day 1, and 250 (12%) had sustained hyperoxemia. Excess FIO2 use occurred in 400 (66%) out of 607 patients with hyperoxemia. Excess FIO2 use decreased from day 1 to day 2 of ARDS, with most hyperoxemic patients on day 2 receiving relatively low FIO2. Multivariate analyses found no independent relationship between day 1 hyperoxemia, sustained hyperoxemia, or excess FIO2 use and adverse clinical outcomes. Mortality was 42% in patients with excess FIO2 use, compared to 39% in a propensity-matched sample of normoxemic (PaO2 55-100 mmHg) patients (P = 0.47). Conclusions: Hyperoxemia and excess oxygen use are both prevalent in early ARDS but are most often non-sustained. No relationship was found between hyperoxemia or excessive oxygen use and patient outcome in this cohort.

    International audienceAims: During diabetic macular oedema (DME), a spectrum of capillary abnormalities is commonly observed, ranging from microaneurysms to large microvascular abnormalities. Clinical evidence suggests that targeted photocoagulation of large microvascular abnormalities may be beneficial, but their detection is not done in a routine fashion. It was reported that they are better identified by indocyanine green angiography (ICGA) than by fluorescein angiography. Here, we investigated the prevalence and ICGA and optical coherence tomography (OCT) features of retinal microvascular abnormalities in a group of patients with DME.Methods: Observational study. The fundus photographs, ICGA and structural and angiographic OCT charts of 35 eyes from 25 consecutive patients with DME were reviewed.Results: 22 eyes (63%) had at least one focal area of microvascular abnormalities showing prolonged indocyanine green (ICG) staining (ie, beyond 10 mins after injection). In particular, all eyes (n=9) with circinate hard exudates showed foci of late ICG staining. These areas were either isolated globular capillary ecstasies or a cluster of ill-defined capillary abnormalities. They were located at a median distance of 2708 µm from the fovea (range: 1064-4583 µm). Their diameter ranged from 153 to 307 µm. During ICGA, 91% showed increased their contrast and apparent size in late frames, whereas 79% of microaneurysms showed reduced contrast on late frames. OCT angiography was not contributive for the detection of these lesions.Conclusion: Late ICG staining revealing large microvascular abnormalities is commonly observed during DME. Because of their specific angiographic and OCT features relative to microaneurysms, we propose to name them telangiectatic capillaries (TelCaps)

    International audienceparietal thickness (PT), wall cross-sectional area (WCSA), and wall-to-lumen ratio (WLR). The applicability of AO vascular biomarkers has been mostly explored in systemic hypertension using AO FIO and in diabetes using AO SLO. The result of the meta-analysis for hypertensive patients showed that WLR, PT, and ID were significantly different when compared to healthy controls, while WCSA was not (P < 0.001, P = 0.002, P < 0.001, and P = 0.070, respectively). The presented review shows that, although a substantial number of retinal vascular biomarkers have been explored in AO en face imaging, further clinical research and standardization of procedures is needed to validate such biomarkers for the longitudinal monitoring of arterial hypertension and other diseases

    The aim of this study was to describe data on epidemiology, ventilatory management, and outcome of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in immunocompromised patients. Methods: We performed a post hoc analysis on the cohort of immunocompromised patients enrolled in the Large Observational Study to Understand the Global Impact of Severe Acute Respiratory Failure (LUNG SAFE) study. The LUNG SAFE study was an international, prospective study including hypoxemic patients in 459 ICUs from 50 countries across 5 continents. Results: Of 2813 patients with ARDS, 584 (20.8%) were immunocompromised, 38.9% of whom had an unspecified cause. Pneumonia, nonpulmonary sepsis, and noncardiogenic shock were their most common risk factors for ARDS. Hospital mortality was higher in immunocompromised than in immunocompetent patients (52.4% vs 36.2%; p < 0.0001), despite similar severity of ARDS. Decisions regarding limiting life-sustaining measures were significantly more frequent in immunocompromised patients (27.1% vs 18.6%; p < 0.0001). Use of noninvasive ventilation (NIV) as first-line treatment was higher in immunocompromised patients (20.9% vs 15.9%; p = 0.0048), and immunodeficiency remained independently associated with the use of NIV after adjustment for confounders. Forty-eight percent of the patients treated with NIV were intubated, and their mortality was not different from that of the patients invasively ventilated ab initio. Conclusions: Immunosuppression is frequent in patients with ARDS, and infections are the main risk factors for ARDS in these immunocompromised patients. Their management differs from that of immunocompetent patients, particularly the greater use of NIV as first-line ventilation strategy. Compared with immunocompetent subjects, they have higher mortality regardless of ARDS severity as well as a higher frequency of limitation of life-sustaining measures. Nonetheless, nearly half of these patients survive to hospital discharge. Trial registration: ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT02010073. Registered on 12 December 2013

    Mechanical ventilation in patients with cardiogenic pulmonary edema: a sub-analysis of the LUNG SAFE study

    No full text
    International audienceBackground: Patients with acute respiratory failure caused by cardiogenic pulmonary edema (CPE) may require mechanical ventilation that can cause further lung damage. Our aim was to determine the impact of ventilatory settings on CPE mortality. Methods: Patients from the LUNG SAFE cohort, a multicenter prospective cohort study of patients undergoing mechanical ventilation, were studied. Relationships between ventilatory parameters and outcomes (ICU discharge/ hospital mortality) were assessed using latent mixture analysis and a marginal structural model. Results: From 4499 patients, 391 meeting CPE criteria (median age 70 [interquartile range 59-78], 40% female) were included. ICU and hospital mortality were 34% and 40%, respectively. ICU survivors were younger (67 [57-77] vs 74 [64-80] years, p < 0.001) and had lower driving (12 [8-16] vs 15 [11-17] cmH 2 O, p < 0.001), plateau (20 [15-23] vs 22 [19-26] cmH 2 O, p < 0.001) and peak (21 [17-27] vs 26 [20-32] cmH 2 O, p < 0.001) pressures. Latent mixture analysis of patients receiving invasive mechanical ventilation on ICU day 1 revealed a subgroup ventilated with high pressures with lower probability of being discharged alive from the ICU (hazard ratio [HR] 0.79 [95% confidence interval 0.60-1.05], p = 0.103) and increased hospital mortality (HR 1.65 [1.16-2.36], p = 0.005). In a marginal structural model, driving pressures in the first week (HR 1.12 [1.06-1.18], p < 0.001) and tidal volume after day 7 (HR 0.69 [0.52-0.93], p = 0.015) were related to survival. Conclusions: Higher airway pressures in invasively ventilated patients with CPE are related to mortality. These patients may be exposed to an increased risk of ventilator-induced lung injury
