PREVALENCIA DE INFECCIÓN EN LA HERIDA QUIRÚRGICA EN PACIENTE GINECOLÓGICA A LOS DIEZ Y VEINTE DÍAS DE LA INTERVENCIÓN POR LAPAROTOMÍA Y CON ALTA PRECOZ

Longitudinal study (two observations) in 109 gynecological patients that underwent laparotomy surgery and patient early check out and that had received training for self-care at check out. With the objective of knowing the prevalence of surgical wound infection ten or twenty days after the operation and to identify the impact of education for self-care. The procedure for information collection consisted of two semistructured interviews, carried out via telephone, where among other questions they were asked about the characteristics of the wound, the person and the place where the cure was received. The prevalence of the infection was found in 10 % of the patients after ten days and in 5 % after twenty days. The relationship between the variable of the infection, person and where curing took place, make us put special emphasis in valuing the conditions of treatment, and the consequences of multi-personal involvement.Estudio longitudinal (2 observaciones) en 109 pacientes ginecológicas intervenidas por laparotomia y con alta precoz y que habian recibido formación para el autocuidado al alta. Con los objetivos de conocer la prevalencia de infección en la hérida quirurgica a los 10 y 20 días de la intervención y de identificar el impacto de la educación para el autocuidado. El procedimiento de recogida de información consistió en dos entrevistas semiestructuradas, realizadas vía telefónica, donde entre otros aspectos se preguntaba sobre las características de la herida, y la persona y lugar donde se realizaba la cura. La prevalencia de infección se encontró en el 10% a los 10 días y el 5 % a los 20 días. La relación entre la variable signos de infección y persona y lugar de la cura lleva a hacer hincapié en valorar las condiciones en que se realizan la curas y en las consecuencias de la intervención de varias manos en la cura de la herida

Fire and brief human occupations in Iberia during MIS 4: Evidence from Abric del Pastor (Alcoy, Spain)

There is a relatively low amount of Middle Paleolithic sites in Europe dating to MIS 4. Of the few that exist, several of them lack evidence for anthropogenic fire, raising the question of how this period of global cooling may have affected the Neanderthal population. The Iberian Peninsula is a key area to explore this issue, as it has been considered as a glacial refugium during critical periods of the Neanderthal timeline and might therefore yield archaeological contexts in which we can explore possible changes in the behaviour and settlement patterns of Neanderthal groups during MIS 4. Here we report recent data from Abric del Pastor, a small rock shelter in Alcoy (Alicante, Spain) with a stratified deposit containing Middle Palaeolithic remains. We present absolute dates that frame the sequence within MIS 4 and multi-proxy geoarchaeological evidence of in situ anthropogenic fire, including microscopic evidence of in situ combustion residues and thermally altered sediment. We also present archaeostratigraphic evidence of recurrent, functionally diverse, brief human occupation of the rock shelter. Our results suggest that Neanderthals occupied the Central Mediterranean coast of the Iberian Peninsula during MIS 4, that these Neanderthals were not undergoing climatic stress and they were habitual fire users.This research was funded by a Leakey Foundation General Grant, Spanish Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities Projects HAR2008-06117/HIST and HAR2015-68321-P, Junta de Castilla y León-FEDER Project BU235P18, the LabEx Sciences Archéologiques de Bordeaux (LaScArBx ANR-10-LABX-52) and ERC Consolidator Grant ERC-CoG-2014.
