Control dolor post quirúrgic pacients intervinguts hèrnia inguinal per CMA

El dolor post-operatori és un dels problemes més importants que segons la OMS afecta als pacients intervinguts quirúrgicament i el que més els preocupa. Any rere any hi ha un increment del nombre de pacients intervinguts per Cirurgia Major ambulatòria al nostre país de manera que ha de ser el mateix usuari i la família els que facilitin les cures als pacients al propi domicili. Aquest estudi planteja si introduir intervencions educatives al servei disminueix el dolor post-operatori dels usuaris Objectiu general: Dissenyar un programa d’informació que realitzarà infermeria dirigit als cuidadors i pacients del servei de CMA i que han de ser intervinguts de hèrnia engonal. Avaluar l’eficiència del mateix programa educatiu. Metodologia: l’àmbit d’estudi d’aquest treball serà les unitats de Cirurgia Major ambulatòria de qualsevol centre de Catalunya. Es realitzarà un estudi comparatiu quantitatiu entre dos grups independents integrants per 30 participants en cadascun d’ells (total de 60 participants). Grupo A: protocol habitual de la unitat Grup B: intervenció educativa dissenyada Els participants seran pacients majors d’edat, que compleixen els requisits per ser intervinguts per Cirurgia Major Ambulatòria de Hèrnia inguinal. El participant ha de fer-ho amb un familiar responsable de les seves cures. Es realitzaran 3 enquestes al pacient i 3 al familiar responsable de les cures, la primera a les 24 hores després de la intervenció, la segona a la setmana i l’última a les 2 setmanes. Limitacions de l’estudi: en cas de que el pacient que ha de formar part de l’estudi requereixi ingrés hospitalari per alguna complicació durant la cirurgia el pacient deixa de participar en l’estudi automàticament. En cas que el pacient o familiar no contestin al telèfon el dia i l’hora pactada prèviament també deixarà de formar part de la investigació. Per aquest motiu es tindran 10 pacients de reserva per si calgués reemplaçar el subjecte d’estudi.

La importancia del control de los costes de la no-calidad en la empresa

Una gran parte de las empresas de todo el mundo, y especialmente las PYMES occidentales, están perdiendo mucho dinero, y como consecuencia de ello gran parte de su competitividad potencial, debido a que los costes totales de calidad en que incurren, son inaceptablemente elevados. En la mayoría de los casos no existe modelo coherente alguno para gestionar dichos costes, y en otros, los modelos aplicados se utilizan de forma parcial, rutinaria y con escaso convencimiento. El resultado de ello, como cabría esperar, es obviamente decepcionante. Evidentemente hay también empresas, generalmente las de gran tamaño (líderes del mercado y multinacionales), conocedoras de la gran importancia que para la disminución de sus costes supone disponer de un sistema adecuado de gestión de los costes de calidad. Invierten sistemáticamente en ello, obteniendo resultados satisfactorios, tanto en sus cuentas de resultados como en el nivel de motivación de sus empleados. Éstos, conscientes del interés de la Dirección por mejorar la calidad de sus productos y servicios, se sienten de alguna manera partícipes de ese proyecto, entendiendo que, en definitiva, el éxito de la empresa es también el suyo propio. Hemos analizado las causas de esta situación, utilizando las experiencias plasmadas en numerosos estudios llevados a cabo por expertos internacionales. Una vez localizados, acotados y definidos los aspectos débiles de los procedimientos aplicados en la actualidad, hemos diseñado un par de nuevos modelos de gestión de los costes totales de calidad, que tienen la virtud de haber eliminado aquellas etapas que, en la práctica, se han mostrado ineficaces, e incorporando otras, que han resultado ser muy útiles en diversos campos de la gestión de la calidad. El primero de los modelos, el más simple, puede ser utilizado para gestionar presupuestos de costes de calidad sencillos, mientras que el segundo contempla la posibilidad de lograr una mayor exactitud en las cifras de las previsiones, al tiempo que introduce alguna situación de incertidumbre.

Water scarcity management and agricultural production (What we can do to produce more with less water)

Crop seasonal sensitivity to water stress is concerned with how to control water stress levels to optimise yield or profitability. It deals with when we can reduce irrigation and impose moderate water deficits without affecting our target, and when we can apply water to avoid too much stress.

Remote Control of Mobile Devices in Android Platform

Remote control systems are a very useful element to control and monitor devices quickly and easily. This paper proposes a new architecture for remote control of Android mobile devices, analyzing the different alternatives and seeking the optimal solution in each case. Although the area of remote control, in case of mobile devices, has been little explored, it may provide important advantages for testing software and hardware developments in several real devices. It can also allow an efficient management of various devices of different types, perform forensic security tasks, etc ... The main idea behind the proposed architecture was the design of a system to be used as a platform which provides the services needed to perform remote control of mobile devices. As a result of this research, a proof of concept was implemented. An Android application running a group of server programs on the device, connected to the network or USB interface, depending on availability. This servers can be controlled through a small client written in Java and runnable both on desktop and web systems.

SAP Control del balanç de materials

L'empresa fícticia EcsCables S.A., que està destinada a la fabricació de cables d'energia de mitja i alta tensió, té uns desviaments en el balanç de materials. L'objectiu d'aquest projecte és la de resoldre les anomalies derivades per mitjà del programari SAP, que serà l'eina imprescindible per poder saber amb certesa que està passant. Amb les dades extretes i amb l'ajuda d'un segon ERP intern anomenat Planifer s'intentarà esbrinar les causes del desviament.

The Protein quality control system manages plant defence compound synthesis

Jasmonates are ubiquitous oxylipin-derived phytohormones that are essential in the regulation of many development, growth and defence processes. Across the plant kingdom, jasmonates act as elicitors of the production of bioactive secondarymetabolites that serve in defence against attackers. Knowledge of the conserved jasmonate perception and early signalling machineries is increasing, but the downstream mechanisms that regulate defence metabolism remain largely unknown. Herewe showthat, in the legumeMedicago truncatula, jasmonate recruits the endoplasmic-reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD)quality control system tomanagethe production of triterpene saponins, widespread bioactive compounds that share a biogenic origin with sterols. An ERAD-type RING membraneanchor E3 ubiquitin ligase is co-expressed with saponin synthesis enzymes to control the activity of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase (HMGR), the rate-limiting enzyme in the supply of the ubiquitous terpene precursor isopentenyl diphosphate. Thus, unrestrained bioactive saponin accumulationis prevented and plant development and integrity secured. This control apparatus is equivalent to the ERAD system that regulates sterol synthesis in yeasts and mammals but that uses distinct E3 ubiquitin ligases, of the HMGR degradation 1 (HRD1) type, to direct destruction of HMGR. Hence, the general principles for the management of sterol and triterpene saponin biosynthesis are conserved across eukaryotes but can be controlled by divergent regulatory cues.
