Rules and regulations for a pregnant endourologist: the European perspective

Introduction Working in surgery while pregnant is challenging. Navigating this period safely is of paramount importance. Anecdotal observation suggests that there exists great variation among European nations in regard to maternity leave and radiation safety. The aim of this article was to gain insight into policy patterns and variations across Europe regarding these issues. Methods A series of core question items was distributed to representatives across 12 nations Austria, Belgium, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Republic of Ireland, Spain and the United Kingdom). Results The total number of weeks with full pay ranged from as little as 4 weeks in Belgium to 32 and Iceland. All countries included in this study give the option of additional weeks beyond the initial period, however at reduced pay. Some offer unpaid leave beyond this. Only 5/12 countries had a specific policy on when the pregnant surgeon should come off the on-call rota. Only Austria, Italy and Poland stipulate a requirement for the pregnant clinician to be replaced or be completely exempt in cases involving radiation. Only Germany, Iceland, Norway and Poland highlight the need to limit radiation dose in the first trimester. Beyond this, Germany alone provides written guidance for reduction in gown weight and along with Poland, display arguably the most forward-thinking approach to resting. Conclusion There is a marked range in maternal leave policies across Europe. There also exists a lack of universal guidance on radiation safety for the pregnant urologist. There is urgent need for this void to be addressed.publishedVersio

Aproximació a una diagnosi de la competència lingüística de l'alumne fill d'immigrants al torn de nit de l'I.B. Vicenç Plantada de Mollet del Vallès

Un resumen de este documento está publicado en la revista Guix, Barcelona, 1993, n 192, octubre; p. 59-60Este documento es un estudio llevado a cabo en un instituto de bachillerato de Mollet del Vallès (Barcelona) sobre las interferencias lingüísticas entre el catalán y el castellano en el alumnado. El estudio pretende comprobar la existencia de estas interferencias, establecer el tipo y la frecuencia y definir los rasgos característicos del catalán como lengua adquirida (en la mayoría de los casos) y del castellano como lengua familiar conservada y utilizada en una zona de lenguas en contacto. Se presentan los objetivos de la investigación, la metodología, la demografía de la zona, el contexto lingüístico, el comportamiento lingüístico y los materiales utilizados.CataluñaES
