La Legitimidad para obrar en el proceso civil peruano

El ordenamiento procesal civil sigue siendo objeto de polémica, lo cual era de esperarse, pues luego de ochenta años de vigencia del viejo Código de Procedimientos Civiles de 1,912, se hacía necesario un cambio que modernizara el sistema de administración de justicia en lo civil, tomando en consideración los avances del derecho procesal en general y, sobre todo, del derecho procesal civil. El nuevo ordenamiento procesal civil que nos rige está alineado a una concepción publicista y privatista del proceso civil, no obstante lo trascendente en él es la función pública que cumple el Estado a través de su órgano jurisdiccional, tanto para hacer efectivo la paz social en justicia como aspiración última de la sociedad, cuanto para solucionar los conflictos de intereses o eliminar las incertidumbre jurídicas. Sin embargo, desde el punto de vista del proceso, lo que importa es quién lo hace, quién está en él; la condición de parte material no interesa. Parte procesal es la persona que interpone la pretensión ante el órgano jurisdiccional y la persona frente a la que se interpone. Por lo que, la diferenciación entre parte material y parte procesal resulta sumamente importante para entender el tema que nos ocupa.Tesi

Mechanical ventilation in patients with cardiogenic pulmonary edema: a sub-analysis of the LUNG SAFE study

Background: Patients with acute respiratory failure caused by cardiogenic pulmonary edema (CPE) may require mechanical ventilation that can cause further lung damage. Our aim was to determine the impact of ventilatory settings on CPE mortality. Methods: Patients from the LUNG SAFE cohort, a multicenter prospective cohort study of patients undergoing mechanical ventilation, were studied. Relationships between ventilatory parameters and outcomes (ICU discharge/hospital mortality) were assessed using latent mixture analysis and a marginal structural model. Results: From 4499 patients, 391 meeting CPE criteria (median age 70 [interquartile range 59-78], 40% female) were included. ICU and hospital mortality were 34% and 40%, respectively. ICU survivors were younger (67 [57-77] vs 74 [64-80] years, p < 0.001) and had lower driving (12 [8-16] vs 15 [11-17] cmH2O, p < 0.001), plateau (20 [15-23] vs 22 [19-26] cmH2O, p < 0.001) and peak (21 [17-27] vs 26 [20-32] cmH2O, p < 0.001) pressures. Latent mixture analysis of patients receiving invasive mechanical ventilation on ICU day 1 revealed a subgroup ventilated with high pressures with lower probability of being discharged alive from the ICU (hazard ratio [HR] 0.79 [95% confidence interval 0.60-1.05], p = 0.103) and increased hospital mortality (HR 1.65 [1.16-2.36], p = 0.005). In a marginal structural model, driving pressures in the first week (HR 1.12 [1.06-1.18], p < 0.001) and tidal volume after day 7 (HR 0.69 [0.52-0.93], p = 0.015) were related to survival. Conclusions: Higher airway pressures in invasively ventilated patients with CPE are related to mortality. These patients may be exposed to an increased risk of ventilator-induced lung injury.
