    Poster apresentado no Annual Meeting 2020, Escola de Saúde de Coimbra.The child and the family with special needs and doubts need to be monitored, supervised, given greater attention, to develop skills and abilities, and greater autonomy. The importance of Occupational Therapy (OT) inserted in a team in the context of early intervention in childhood and school is already recognized and studied, but still few, when it is reflected on the intervention in the community. The purpose of the compilation is to reflect on the follow-up practices of OT in the Primary Health Care, in early childhood. The reading of the data reports, in the middle of the hours of an OT in the Primary Health Care, 17 hours. The results are numerical / descriptive, have a non-experimental, retrospective, longitudinal nature, between March 2005 and March 2016. The service does not have a validated information system, the data were taken from excel sheets. A total of 253 different children / young people, with at least 1 h or more of care, between 0 months and 18 years, 74.3% between 1 month and 6 years of age and 25.7% among the 7 and 12 years old included, 58.1% of the male gender and 41.9% of the female gender. Requests came from the community, with the family also signaling. The children were mostly referred at early ages, due to Communication and Relationship Disturbance, and difficulties in Social Interaction with no known etiology. It indispensable the OT follow up in the Primary Health Care. In the community, is a great necessity to families and children.info:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersio

    Annual Meeting 2020, 19-21 março, Escola de Saúde de Coimbra.The Degree of Occupational Therapy (OT) of the Higher School of Health Sciences (ESElei) of the Polytechnic Institute of Leiria (IPLeiria) in Portugal, promotes the Gulbenkian Academies of Knowledge, sponsered by Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation. We aim to improve social and emotional skills in young children from 3 to 8 years old, building resilient children in ESSLei adjacent community, in Leiria and Porto de Mós field. We will invest and qualifying the teacher´s, those that everiday stengthens is classroom. The team will be formed by up to 14 elements, ESSlei teachers, elements from Porto de Mós & Leiria Autarchy, Private Social Solidarity Institutions from coverage área. This team will disseminate for free t he methodology, one theoreticalpractical model, divided in 84 hours (42 in classrom more 42 pratical in classrooms). In total they are 7 Workshops offered for free to public institutions. We aim to share results from implementationoctober 2018-March 2020. At the same time we are pleased to share a good & resilient practice. By now we already formed 33 educatores and reach directly near 1200 childrens, devolping resilience, problem solving, criativity, better communication. By the time of the conference, we will have more results, from a pratical methodology that is working nearly with Teachers, enhancing resilicence, strategies for enhancing soft skills, community resilience. The promotion of soft skills, in theory and with our pratical experience is the future of primary care & health promotion.info:eu-repo/semantics/acceptedVersio

    The Cauchy-Schl\"omilch transformation states that for a function ff and a, b>0a, \, b > 0, the integral of f(x2)f(x^{2}) and af((ax−bx−1)2af((ax-bx^{-1})^{2} over the interval [0,∞)[0, \infty) are the same. This elementary result is used to evaluate many non-elementary definite integrals, most of which cannot be obtained by symbolic packages. Applications to probability distributions is also given

    Fraction of clear skies above astronomical sites: a new analysis from the GOES12 satellite

    Full text link
    Comparing the number of clear nights (cloud free) available for astronomical observations is a critical task because it should be based on homogeneous methodologies. Current data are mainly based on different judgements based on observer logbooks or on different instruments. In this paper we present a new homogeneous methodology on very different astronomical sites for modern optical astronomy, in order to quantify the available night time fraction. The data are extracted from night time GOES12 satellite infrared images and compared with ground based conditions when available. In this analysis we introduce a wider average matrix and 3-Bands correlation in order to reduce the noise and to distinguish between clear and stable nights. Temporal data are used for the classification. In the time interval 2007-2008 we found that the percentage of the satellite clear nights is 88% at Paranal, 76% at La Silla, 72.5% at La Palma, 59% at Mt. Graham and 86.5% at Tolonchar. The correlation analysis of the three GOES12 infrared bands B3, B4 and B6 indicates that the fraction of the stable nights is lower by 2% to 20% depending on the site
