Formación Transversal y Trabajos Fin de Grado Interdisciplinares

El programa formativo de Trabajos Fin de Grado interdisciplinares (TFGi) comenzó en 2018, para dar solución a una serie de carencias detectadas en la formación de nuestro alumnado de grado. De esta manera, se ha puesto en marcha un programa formativo pionero transversal, abierto a todas las titulaciones, que trabaja sobre cuatro ejes: acceso a la información, trabajo colaborativo, comunicación-redes sociales y emprendimiento, cuyo objetivo es generar ideas y equipos interdisciplinares para elaborar TFGis y fomentar el abordaje interdisciplinar de proyectos, que supone la forma habitual de trabajo adaptado a las nuevas realidades laborales. Dicho plan formativo fue diseñado por un equipo base de profesorado de la Universidad Miguel Hernández (UMH) de distintas áreas de conocimiento, luego implementado y evaluado a través de encuestas realizadas a los participantes. Los resultados completos de dicha evaluación se presentan en esta comunicación, si bien cabe destacar la alta motivación inicial del alumnado por experimentar un nuevo modo de trabajo sobre problemas reales e impulsar sus competencias y oportunidades para su futuro profesional inmediato. Respecto a la valoración global de la experiencia educativa, el porcentaje de respuestas con valoraciones de 4 o 5 en una escala de Likert fue del 95.45%. Esto nos lleva a concluir que el programa formativo está favoreciendo la adquisición de nuevas competencias y el desarrollo eficaz de los TFGis

Knowledge and Attitudes towards Patient Safety among Students in Physical Therapy in Spain: A Longitudinal Study

Patient safety is a discipline of health care management aiming to prevent and reduce errors and harm to patients. The assessment of knowledge and attitudes on patient safety among students in physical therapy is still scarce; no studies have yet explored the changes that internship periods may produce. Objectives: 1. to determine the attitudes and knowledge of students in physical therapy with respect to patient safety in a Spanish University; and 2. to explore changes following a practical internship period. (2) Methods: Longitudinal study. Data from the Attitudes to Patient Safety Questionnaire III (APSQ-III) before and after the internship period were obtained from an initial sample of 125 students and average positive response rates were compared. (3) Results: "Team functioning", "Importance of patient safety in the curriculum", and "Error inevitability" displayed the highest scores, in accordance with the current literature. After the internship period, the dimensions "Patient safety training received" (p = 0.001), "Error reporting confidence" (p = 0.044), and "Professional incompetence as an error cause" (p = 0.027) showed significant changes. (4) Conclusions: The current study, highlighting areas of strengths and weaknesses in the knowledge and attitudes of students in physical therapy towards patient safety, may be a foundation to adopt tailored programs to enhance students' competencies in patient safet

Tensiomyographical responsiveness to peripheral Fatigue in quadriceps femoris

Background. Fatigue influences athletic performance and can also increase the risk of injury in sports, and most of the methods to evaluate it require an additional voluntary effort. Tensiomyography (TMG), which uses electrical stimulation and a displacement sensor to evaluate muscle contraction properties of one or more muscle bellies, has emerged as a technique that can assess the presence of peripheral and central fatigue without requiring additional voluntary efforts. However, the evaluation of the TMG's ability to detect fatigue is limited, both at the level of muscle bellies and statistical methods. Thus, the aim of the present study was twofold: (i) to examine and compare the tensiomyographical responsiveness to quadriceps femoris (QF) fatigue by multiple statistical methods and (ii) to analyze sex differences in the variation produced by fatigue in TMG parameters. Methods. Thirty-nine recreational athletes participated (19 males/20 females; aged 22 ± 2 years). TMG parameters of QF bellies and maximal voluntary isometric con-traction (MVIC) were measured before and after a fatigue protocol. TMG parameters used were maximum radial deformation (Dm), contraction time between 10-90% of the Dm (Tc), contraction velocity between 10-90% (Vc) and of the first 10% (V10) of the Dm. Internal responsiveness of TMG to fatigue was analyzed by paired t-test and standardized response mean (SRM). External responsiveness was examined by correlations, regression models, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. Results. All TMG parameters, except for Tc of rectus femoris and vastus medialis, showed large internal responsiveness. In adjusted regression models by sex, only Dm and V10 of rectus femoris were statistically associated (p < 0.05) with b coefficients of 0.40 and 0.43, respectively. r2 explained the 22% of the total variance. In addition, these parameters could discriminate between QF with and without fatigue. Conclusion. Since the QF is the main strength contributor during multiple physical activities, clinicians and trainers will be able to discriminate the presence of fatigue and the magnitude of changes in the QF strength by TMG evaluatio

Effects of a mindfulness-based program on the occupational balance and mental health of university students. Protocol for a randomized controlled trial.

OBJECTIVE: The aim is to examine whether the addition of Virtual Reality (VR) meditation training to a standard 8-week Mindfulness-Based Health Care Program (MBHC-VR) results in a significantly increased improvement in occupational, mental health, and psychological functioning versus MBHC-only in university students. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A randomized controlled clinical trial with three arms (MBHC, MBHC-VR, Control Group), four assessment time points (pre-intervention, inter-session, post-intervention, and 3-month follow-up), and mixed methodology will be proposed. University students (undergraduate, master, or doctoral) interested in participating and who meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria will be included over two years. Data will be collected from different ad hoc questionnaires, several standardized tests, and an Ecological Momentary Assessment. We will use R software to carry out descriptive analyses (univariate and bivariate), multilevel modeling, and structural equation models to respond to the proposed objective. The qualitative analysis will be carried out using the MAXQDA program and the technique of focus groups. DISCUSSION: It is expected that with the proposed intervention university students will learn to relate in a healthier way with their mental processes, so as to improve their occupational balance (OB) and their psychological well-being.
