Estrategias para la prevención del tecnoestrés en profesorado universitario: una revisión sistemática

El presente proyecto de investigación se centra en revisar las estrategias de prevención del tecnoestrés reportadas en la literatura científica entre los años 2014 a 2021 aplicables al profesorado universitario en general, ya que la sobrecarga del uso de las tecnologías de la información y comunicación (TIC) generan tecnoestrés que afecta su área biológica, psicológica y social. Este se plantea a través de una revisión sistemática mediante la recopilación de 60 artículos científicos utilizando bases de datos como: Scopus, Pubmed, Frontiers in Psychology y Dialnet. El análisis de los textos anteriores se elaboró mediante una matriz bibliográfica, con el fin de determinar las estrategias de prevención del tecnoestrés aplicadas en la actualidad, fundamentada en los docentes universitarios; de los cuales se seleccionaron 15 artículos que cumplieron con los criterios de inclusión. Los resultados encontrados en estos artículos corresponden a estrategias dirigidas a la prevención y la intervención, donde se hallan algunas enfocadas a nivel individual y organizacional como: habilidades de afrontamiento, autoeficacia, capacitaciones y adaptación al uso de las TIC, control emocional y bienestar psicosocial en profesores universitarios. Posteriormente, se realizaron una serie de conclusiones orientadas a la recomendación de desarrollar futuras investigaciones experimentales con la aplicación de programas de prevención, teniendo en cuenta factores individuales y organizacionales que estén enfocadas en los tecnoestresores, para la contribución de esta condición tanto para profesores universitarios como demás personas cuyo trabajo requiere constantemente el uso de las TIC.This research project focuses on reviewing the technostress prevention strategies reported in the scientific literature between 2014 and 2021 applicable to university teachers in general, who due to the overload of technology use present technostress affecting their biological, psychological and social. This is proposed from the qualitative approach with a descriptive scope, through a systematic review by compiling 60 scientific articles using scientific databases such as: Scopus, Pubmed, Frontiers in Psychology and Dialnet. For the analysis of the previous texts, a matrix was elaborated in order to determine the technostress prevention strategies currently applied, based on university teachers; of which 15 articles that met inclusion criteria were selected. The results found in these articles correspond to strategies aimed at prevention and intervention, where some are focused at the individual and organizational level, such as: coping skills, self-efficacy, training and adaptation to the use of TIC, emotional control and psychosocial well-being in University teachers. Subsequently, some conclusions are generated that focus on the recommendation yo carry out future experimental investigations wit the application of prevention programs taking into account individual, organizational factors and that are focused on each type of technostress, for the contribution of this condition both for university professors and for people work with the constant use of TIC.Dedicatoria. -- Resumen. -- Abstract. -- Introducción. -- Planteamiento del Problema. -- Pregunta de Investigación. -- Objetivos. -- Objetivo General. -- Objetivos específicos. -- Justificación. -- Antecedentes. -- Marco Teórico. -- Metodología. -- Diagrama de flujo 1. -- Resultados. -- Gráfico 1. -- Gráfico 2. -- Tabla 1 estrategias de prevención. -- Categoría organizacional. -- Categoría individual. -- Categoría mixta. -- Discusión. -- Anexo. -- Matriz bibliográfica. -- Matriz de hallazgos. -- Aprobación trabajo de grado. -- Referencias.

Reducing the environmental impact of surgery on a global scale: systematic review and co-prioritization with healthcare workers in 132 countries

Abstract Background Healthcare cannot achieve net-zero carbon without addressing operating theatres. The aim of this study was to prioritize feasible interventions to reduce the environmental impact of operating theatres. Methods This study adopted a four-phase Delphi consensus co-prioritization methodology. In phase 1, a systematic review of published interventions and global consultation of perioperative healthcare professionals were used to longlist interventions. In phase 2, iterative thematic analysis consolidated comparable interventions into a shortlist. In phase 3, the shortlist was co-prioritized based on patient and clinician views on acceptability, feasibility, and safety. In phase 4, ranked lists of interventions were presented by their relevance to high-income countries and low–middle-income countries. Results In phase 1, 43 interventions were identified, which had low uptake in practice according to 3042 professionals globally. In phase 2, a shortlist of 15 intervention domains was generated. In phase 3, interventions were deemed acceptable for more than 90 per cent of patients except for reducing general anaesthesia (84 per cent) and re-sterilization of ‘single-use’ consumables (86 per cent). In phase 4, the top three shortlisted interventions for high-income countries were: introducing recycling; reducing use of anaesthetic gases; and appropriate clinical waste processing. In phase 4, the top three shortlisted interventions for low–middle-income countries were: introducing reusable surgical devices; reducing use of consumables; and reducing the use of general anaesthesia. Conclusion This is a step toward environmentally sustainable operating environments with actionable interventions applicable to both high– and low–middle–income countries

Reproducibility of fluorescent expression from engineered biological constructs in E. coli

We present results of the first large-scale interlaboratory study carried out in synthetic biology, as part of the 2014 and 2015 International Genetically Engineered Machine (iGEM) competitions. Participants at 88 institutions around the world measured fluorescence from three engineered constitutive constructs in E. coli. Few participants were able to measure absolute fluorescence, so data was analyzed in terms of ratios. Precision was strongly related to fluorescent strength, ranging from 1.54-fold standard deviation for the ratio between strong promoters to 5.75-fold for the ratio between the strongest and weakest promoter, and while host strain did not affect expression ratios, choice of instrument did. This result shows that high quantitative precision and reproducibility of results is possible, while at the same time indicating areas needing improved laboratory practices.Peer reviewe
