    Mitjançant aquesta experiència demostrarem el què si l'atmosfera només fora 100% oxigen, al respirar ens cremaríem els pulmons, no obstant això, gràcies a què només té un 21% d'oxigen podem respirar sense cap problema. Amb aquest exemple de reacció també podem conèixer quina quantitat d'oxigen han d'aportar les nostres cèl·lules per a cremar la quantitat de sacarosa que ingerim diàriament

    Most of blood borne and airborne pathogens are highly contagious, harmful and have prevalence among healthcare workers. In this group, healthcare students, especially nursing undergraduates, have even higher risk to be exposed and suffered a contagious accident. One of the main pillars to prevent exposure to such pathogens and decrease accidents seems to be through education. A prospective observational educational research focused on quantifying the students’ knowledge, and prevention culture was carried out. The educational approach based on the development of a technological tool, its integration in the students’ education, and posterior assessment. The Chi-square, ANOVA, Kruskal–Wallis, Man–Whitney U, and Spearman correlations were used to determine the effect of such educational methodology. The results, previous to the integration of the educational approach, showed differences between the elementary and proficient knowledge and correct procedure in each academic year (p < 0.05), being the best year the third academic year. The mean of elementary knowledge among second year students after the inclusion of the educational methodology improved for 2017/2018 with a mean of 7.5 (1.11) and in 2018/2019 with 7.87 (1.34). This study argued that the educational approach proposed could improve the prevention culture and knowledge among students and future healthcare professionals

    En el presente trabajo describimos una propuesta educativa dirigida a estudiantes del Máster de Secundaria (51 alumnos) y del Grado en Educación Primaria (49 alumnos) en la que los futuros docentes se enfrentaron a la creación de un documental educativo de contenido científico. Los estudiantes llevaron a cabo todas las etapas de la creación de un vídeo documental. En concreto, tuvieron que estructurar y organizar los grupos de trabajo, recopilar y gestionar información, elaborar un guion, grabar y, por último, montar y editar el material audiovisual. El enfoque de la propuesta apuesta por un cambio en los modos de enseñanza teniendo en cuenta los audiovisuales como una nueva forma de comunicarse demandada por nuestra sociedad y el aprendizaje por proyectos como el modo natural en el que experimentar este lenguaje. Para analizar los diferentes pasos del proyecto se realizó una entrevista semiestructurada al finalizar el trabajo. El análisis de contenidos resultante mostró cómo la formación previa era determinante para enfrentarse a las distintas etapas. Además, pudimos observar varios aspectos interesantes como el considerable uso que hicieron de la información en formato audiovisual o los diferentes tipos de estructuras organizativas dentro de los grupos de trabajo.In this paper we describe an educational project aimed at students of the Master's Degree in Secondary School (51 students) and Bachelor’s degree in Primary Education (49 students), in which the future teachers faced the creation of a scientific content educational documentary. Students carried out all the steps for the creation of a documentary video. To do so, they had to structure and organize the work team, collect and manage the information, develop a script, film and finally edit the audiovisual material. The approach of this paper advocates a change in the ways of teaching, taking into account that the society demands the audiovisual as a new way to communicate, and the project-based learning like the means in which the future teachers would experience this teaching-learning process. A semi-structured interview was made to the future teachers to analyze the different project steps. The later content analysis showed how the previous academic training was decisive to face the different stages. In addition, we could see several interesting aspects as the considerable use made of the audiovisual information or the different kinds of organizational structures inside work team

    Health professionals are a concerning risk population because of the high prevalence of exposure to biological, especially during training that involves procedures implying direct contact with bodily fluids. Notwithstanding, the considerable advance of information and communication technologies (ICTs) during the last decades has provided with the divergence of new paths of research applied to training in the health field, allowing it integration in the field of biological risk prevention. The objectives of this study are: firstly, to estimate the level of knowledge about risk situations and the immediate response capacity of future professionals, prepare health professionals before different scenarios that can be presented in health care, and contribute to the appropriate decision making in possible scenarios. Secondly, to design and develop a mobile web application that, in a fast and ever-present manner, allows the healthcare professional, to have a quick response system that is clear and concise; and to evaluate by health students’ and professionals’ opinions the effectiveness of the technology developed. This study has been structured in two phases: first, to determine the degree of knowledge and compliance of biosecurity measures; and second, to perform a dual evaluation of the application. The survey of graduating students concerning practices has shown that the knowledge of risk prevention is adequate; meanwhile, a dynamic and efficient platform has been obtained, and its double assessment is satisfactory. It has been shown that the incidence of biological accidents is in the mean of the results of previous studies. An upgradeable web platform, ubiquitous and capable of being used in any electronic device available in the market, was obtaine

    -Objetivos: Comparar la eficacia analgésica de dos antiinflamatorios no esteroideos (AINES), pertenecientes a la familia de los ácidos propiónicos, tras intervenciones quirúrgicas orales con el fin de valorar cual de ellos es más efectivo con el mínimo de efectos secundarios y la menor dosis. Normalmente el dolor tras una intervención quirúrgica oral está considerado como moderado-intenso, siendo los AINES los fármacos de elección para este tipo de dolor. Como sabemos, el gran problema de estos fármacos reside en los efectos indeseables. Demostramos la eficacia del enantiómero-S(+) de estos fármacos ya que de ellos depende la analgesia y nos permiten utilizar una menor dosis del fármaco. -Diseño: Se entregan a los pacientes cuestionarios con tablas de valoración del dolor y se realizan distintas apreciaciones: dolor postquirúrgico, dolor en la primera hora tras la administración del analgésico, inflamación, hemorragia, hematoma, etc... . Valoramos el efecto de los distintos fármacos empleados en el estudio en función de las coordenadas eficacia-tiempo, así como el efecto anti-inflamatorio y sus efectos secundarios. -Resultados: Se comprueba que existe un dolor moderado tras una intervención quirúrgica oral, los fármacos empleados son eficaces en las dosis e intervalos indicados. Durante la primera hora tras la toma del analgésico, aquellos pacientes en tratamiento con DKT, presentaron menor dolor frente a los que estaban en tratamiento con Ibuprofeno (IBU). Se comprueba que existe inflamación en la mayoría de las intervenciones, las extracciones de cordales semi-incluidos (CSI) presentan mayor hemorragia el primer día y las extracciones de cordales incluidos (CI) presentan mayor hemorragia al tercer día, siendo estas intervenciones las que presentan hematoma. -Conclusiones: Demostramos la mayor eficacia analgésica del Dexketoprofeno Trometamol en la primera hora tras la intervención quirúrgica oral y su mayor efecto antiinflamatorio.-Objectives: Compare the analgesic efficacy of two nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) belonging to the family of propionic acids after oral surgery in order to assess which one is most effective with the minimum side effects and lowest dose. Normally, the pain after oral surgery is considered as moderate-intense and NSAIDs are the first choice when treating post-surgical dental pain. As we know, the great problem of these drugs is found in their undesirable effects. The enantiomer-S(+) component is known to be related with analgesia and need for lower dose of these drugs. -Design: The patients are given questionnaires with pain assessment tables and different observations are made: postsurgical pain, pain in the first hour after administration of the analgesic, inflammation, bleeding, hematoma, etc. We assess the effect of the different drugs used in the study based on the efficacy-time coordinates as well as the anti-inflammatory effect and their side effects. -Results: It is verified that there is moderate pain after oral surgery and the drugs used are effective in the doses and intervals indicated. During the first hour after taking the analgesic, those patients treated with Dexketoprofen Trometamol (DKT) presented less pain compared to those who were treated with Ibuprofen (IBU). It is verified that there is inflammation in most of the interventions, the extractions of the semi-impacted third molars (SITM) present greater bleeding on the first day and the extractions of impacted third molars (ITM) present more bleeding on the third day. These last two interventions (ITM also present hematoma. -Conclusions: We demonstrate the greater analgesic efficacy of Dexketoprofen Trometamol in the first hour after the oral surgical intervention and its greater anti-inflammatory effect
