The subjective body of nursing academic: dimensions of sensoperception

Objetivo: identificar a maneira como acadêmicos de enfermagem visualizam o próprio corpo a partir do tato. Metodologia: estudo descritivo, de abordagem qualitativa com destaque para a subjetividade, feito com 33 alunos de graduação em enfermagem da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte/UFRN. Resultados: as respostas obedecem a um roteiro céfalo-caudal frente a um modelo anatomicamente incorporado para o exame físico. Os acadêmicos manifestaram gostar das partes que se situam na cabeça, tronco e não gostar daquelas referentes aos membros inferiores configurando um esquema corporal idealizado frente um corpo concreto e não aceito, embora tenha que conviver com o mesmo. Conclusão: mediante o estudo foi possível avaliar o quão importante é a relação desses estudantes com seu corpo e sua influência de cunho psicossocial e, ainda num sentido projetivo reflete a relação frente ao corpo dos portadores de transtornos mentais e comportamentais, objeto do seu cuidado

Innovative use and efficiency test of subcutaneous transponders for electronic identification of water buffaloes.

The objective of this study was to evaluate the viability of using transponders for the electronic identification of water buffaloes and compare their efficiency when used in animals of different age groups. Electronic transponders with RFID technology (2.1 × 12.2 mm) were implanted subcutaneously (D0) in the scutiform cartilage. The animals consisted of four groups: CLF-I (17 calves; 2.1 ± 1.9 months), CLF-II (20 calves; 5.1 ± 3.2 months), HFR (20 heifers; 22 ± 4.7 months) and STR (19 steers; 26.6 ± 6.7 months). The animals were kept under pasture grazing, a part of the year in the dryland and a part in the floodplain, and were monitored for up to 350 days. The average time required for individual transponder implant was 49.46 s, while the time required for reading the code was 3.76 s. The older calves required higher time for individual implant (P = 0.0001) and closer approximation of the reader in the D150 (P = 0.0001). The mean read distance was 2.98 cm in D0 and 1.94 cm in D150. The magnitude of the subcutaneous transponder migration was minimal, and was within an area of 17.2 mm2. A slight bleeding was observed in 15.79% of the animals during the implant. A decreasing incidence of edema was observed until D21, with the heifers being more sensitive until that time (P = 0.0099). Considering the results, it is preferred to implant electronic transponders in calves up to two months of age. The physical rate of transponder loss was 1.3% and the loss of functionality was 9.2%. High reading rate was achieved when animals were raised both in dryland (93.9%) and floodplain (97.2%). Thus, the electronic identification of water buffaloes is a technique capable of replacing traditional and rudimentary methods to identify buffaloes and can provide safe identification of animals
