A PERCEPÇÃO DOS FUTUROS PROFESSORES SOBRE A IMPLEMENTAÇÃO DO CONTEÚDO DA EXPRESSÃO CORPORAL

This article analyzes future teachers’ perceptions about the problems to teach bodily expression as well as its benefits for primary school students in this area and their fears about it. The sample included 18 students from the Artistic-Expressive Physical Activities course focused on Physical Education at the University of Burgos – 23.6 ± 5.5 years. A qualitative methodology with two data collection instruments was employed: group interviews with students and teacher’s diary. The results showed that after completing the course, future teachers did not perceive bodily expression as difficult to teach, stressing the progression of exercises for disinhibition, music and material as key resources. Shyness is pointed out as students’ greatest insecurity factor and differs according to gender. Finally, bodily expression is presented as the best Physical Education content to develop expression of emotions, imagination and creativity.  Este artículo analiza las percepciones de los futuros maestros relativas a los problemas para impartir expresión corporal, los beneficios y los miedos de los alumnos de Primaria en esta área.

A method for synthetic LiDAR generation to create annotated datasets for autonomous vehicles perception

Proceedings of: 2019 IEEE Intelligent Transportation Systems Conference (ITSC)LiDAR devices have become a key sensor for autonomous vehicles perception due to their ability to capture reliable geometry information. Indeed, approaches processing LiDAR data have shown an impressive accuracy for 3D object detection tasks, outperforming methods solely based on image inputs. However, the wide diversity of on-board sensor configurations makes the deployment of published algorithms into real platforms a hard task, due to the scarcity of annotated datasets containing laser scans. We present a method to generate new point clouds datasets as captured by a real LiDAR device. The proposed pipeline makes use of multiple frames to perform an accurate 3D reconstruction of the scene in the spherical coordinates system that enables the simulation of the sweeps of a virtual LiDAR sensor, configurable both in location and inner specifications. The similarity between real data and the generated synthetic clouds is assessed through a set of experiments performed using KITTI Depth and Object Benchmarks.Research supported by the Spanish Government through the CICYT projects (TRA2016-78886-C3-1-R and RTI2018-096036-B-C21), and the Comunidad de Madrid through SEGVAUTO-4.0-CM (P2018/EMT-4362).

Effectiveness of an intervention for improving drug prescription in primary care patients with multimorbidity and polypharmacy:Study protocol of a cluster randomized clinical trial (Multi-PAP project)

This study was funded by the Fondo de Investigaciones Sanitarias ISCIII (Grant Numbers PI15/00276, PI15/00572, PI15/00996), REDISSEC (Project Numbers RD12/0001/0012, RD16/0001/0005), and the European Regional Development Fund ("A way to build Europe").Background: Multimorbidity is associated with negative effects both on people's health and on healthcare systems. A key problem linked to multimorbidity is polypharmacy, which in turn is associated with increased risk of partly preventable adverse effects, including mortality. The Ariadne principles describe a model of care based on a thorough assessment of diseases, treatments (and potential interactions), clinical status, context and preferences of patients with multimorbidity, with the aim of prioritizing and sharing realistic treatment goals that guide an individualized management. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of a complex intervention that implements the Ariadne principles in a population of young-old patients with multimorbidity and polypharmacy. The intervention seeks to improve the appropriateness of prescribing in primary care (PC), as measured by the medication appropriateness index (MAI) score at 6 and 12months, as compared with usual care. Methods/Design: Design:pragmatic cluster randomized clinical trial. Unit of randomization: family physician (FP). Unit of analysis: patient. Scope: PC health centres in three autonomous communities: Aragon, Madrid, and Andalusia (Spain). Population: patients aged 65-74years with multimorbidity (≥3 chronic diseases) and polypharmacy (≥5 drugs prescribed in ≥3months). Sample size: n=400 (200 per study arm). Intervention: complex intervention based on the implementation of the Ariadne principles with two components: (1) FP training and (2) FP-patient interview. Outcomes: MAI score, health services use, quality of life (Euroqol 5D-5L), pharmacotherapy and adherence to treatment (Morisky-Green, Haynes-Sackett), and clinical and socio-demographic variables. Statistical analysis: primary outcome is the difference in MAI score between T0 and T1 and corresponding 95% confidence interval. Adjustment for confounding factors will be performed by multilevel analysis. All analyses will be carried out in accordance with the intention-to-treat principle. Discussion: It is essential to provide evidence concerning interventions on PC patients with polypharmacy and multimorbidity, conducted in the context of routine clinical practice, and involving young-old patients with significant potential for preventing negative health outcomes.

Prevalence, associated factors and outcomes of pressure injuries in adult intensive care unit patients: the DecubICUs study

Funder: European Society of Intensive Care Medicine; doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.13039/501100013347Funder: Flemish Society for Critical Care NursesAbstract: Purpose: Intensive care unit (ICU) patients are particularly susceptible to developing pressure injuries. Epidemiologic data is however unavailable. We aimed to provide an international picture of the extent of pressure injuries and factors associated with ICU-acquired pressure injuries in adult ICU patients. Methods: International 1-day point-prevalence study; follow-up for outcome assessment until hospital discharge (maximum 12 weeks). Factors associated with ICU-acquired pressure injury and hospital mortality were assessed by generalised linear mixed-effects regression analysis. Results: Data from 13,254 patients in 1117 ICUs (90 countries) revealed 6747 pressure injuries; 3997 (59.2%) were ICU-acquired. Overall prevalence was 26.6% (95% confidence interval [CI] 25.9–27.3). ICU-acquired prevalence was 16.2% (95% CI 15.6–16.8). Sacrum (37%) and heels (19.5%) were most affected. Factors independently associated with ICU-acquired pressure injuries were older age, male sex, being underweight, emergency surgery, higher Simplified Acute Physiology Score II, Braden score 3 days, comorbidities (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, immunodeficiency), organ support (renal replacement, mechanical ventilation on ICU admission), and being in a low or lower-middle income-economy. Gradually increasing associations with mortality were identified for increasing severity of pressure injury: stage I (odds ratio [OR] 1.5; 95% CI 1.2–1.8), stage II (OR 1.6; 95% CI 1.4–1.9), and stage III or worse (OR 2.8; 95% CI 2.3–3.3). Conclusion: Pressure injuries are common in adult ICU patients. ICU-acquired pressure injuries are associated with mainly intrinsic factors and mortality. Optimal care standards, increased awareness, appropriate resource allocation, and further research into optimal prevention are pivotal to tackle this important patient safety threat

Valoración de los contenidos de Expresión Corporal por parte de los futuros maestros en la asignatura de Actividades Físicas Artístico-expresivas de la mención de Educación Física

Physical Education does not always deal with Body Expression. Among the causes for this are lack of teacher training, difficult delivery of unusual content, ignorance or previous bad experiences. This article aims to analyze the different topics included in the subject of Artistic-Expressive Physical Activities in the Mention of Physical Education Teaching Degree in the University of Burgos. It intends to show which contents are more educational, which are more difficult to teach in Primary School and which have generated more positive experiences. A mixed methodology is used with an ad hoc questionnaire and the analysis of student diaries. After analysis of the results, it is observed that students generally value these contents as very educational, they are not excessively difficult and generate positive experiences. Some key aspects for the assessment of the content are the ability to avoid blockage and improve student confidence, gender and the need for materials.La Expresión Corporal se caracteriza por sus carencias en la implementación en el área de Educación Física, entre las causas se encuentran: la falta de formación del profesorado, la difícil impartición de contenidos no habituales, el desconocimiento de éstos o las malas experiencias previas. El presente artículo pretende analizar los diferentes contenidos llevados a cabo en la asignatura de Actividades Físicas Artístico-Expresivas, de la Mención de Educación Física del Grado de Magisterio en la Universidad de Burgos. Se quiere conocer qué contenidos son considerados más educativos, cuáles resultan más difíciles de impartir en un aula de Primaria y cuáles han generado más experiencias positivas. Se utiliza una metodología mixta a través de la realización de un cuestionario ad hoc y el análisis de los diarios del alumnado. Tras el análisis de los resultados, se observa que los estudiantes valoran en general los contenidos como muy educativos, sin excesiva dificultad y generadores de experiencias positivas. Aspectos como la necesidad de material, el género, la capacidad de evitar bloqueos y mejorar la confianza del alumnado son claves para la valoración de los contenidos
