Die Arbeit: eine Re-Vision = Le travail: une re-vision

Was ist Arbeit? Ein notwendiges Übel, eine den Menschen erst zum Menschen machende Notwendigkeit, ein Mittel sich selbst zu verwirklichen, eine notwendige Struktur, die den Menschen gesund hält, ja sogar therapiert oder bloss eine unter vielen Möglichkeiten, mit dem Leben etwas anzufangen? Arbeit wurde schon immer mehrdeutig gefasst. Zwölf Autoren aus dem französischen und deutschen Kulturkreis diskutieren, was Arbeit ist und war. Die Beiträge aus Philosophie, Recht, Sozialwissenschaften, aber auch Kunstwissenschaften kreisen um vier wesentliche Spannungen des Begriffs Arbeit: die Arbeit der Frau, die Sichtbarkeit oder Sichtbarmachung der Arbeit, das Verhältnis von Arbeit zu anderen menschlichen Tätigkeiten, der Sinn und das Erleben der Arbeit mit dem allgegenwärtigen Stress, mit dem die heutige Arbeit verknüpft wird. Qu'est-ce que le travail? Un mal nécessaire, une nécessité pour faire des hommes des êtres humains, un moyen de se réaliser, une structure nécessaire qui maintient les êtres humains en santé, voire même les soigne, ou simplement une possibilité parmi d'autres de faire quelque chose de sa vie? Le terme de travail comprend un large éventail de significations. Douze auteurs de culture française et allemande discutent de ce qu'est le travail et de ce qu'il était. Les contributions issues de la philosophie, du droit, des sciences sociales, mais aussi des arts s'articulent autour de quatre dimensions essentielles du concept de travail: le travail des femmes, la visibilité ou la mise en évidence du travail, le lien entre le travail et les autres activités humaines, la recherche de sens et le vécu du travail avec le stress quotidien qui est aujourd'hui étroitement lié au travail.

Gaslini's tracheal team: preliminary experience after one year of paediatric airway reconstructive surgery.

Background: congenital and acquired airway anomalies represent a relatively common albeit challenging problem in a national tertiary care hospital. In the past, most of these patients were sent to foreign Centres because of the lack of local experience in reconstructive surgery of the paediatric airway. In 2009, a dedicated team was established at our Institute. Gaslini's Tracheal Team includes different professionals, namely anaesthetists, intensive care specialists, neonatologists, pulmonologists, radiologists, and ENT, paediatric, and cardiovascular surgeons. The aim of this project was to provide these multidisciplinary patients, at any time, with intensive care, radiological investigations, diagnostic and operative endoscopy, reconstructive surgery, ECMO or cardiopulmonary bypass. Aim of this study is to present the results of the first year of airway reconstructive surgery activity of the Tracheal Team.Methods: between September 2009 and December 2010, 97 patients were evaluated or treated by our Gaslini Tracheal Team. Most of them were evaluated by both rigid and flexible endoscopy. In this study we included 8 patients who underwent reconstructive surgery of the airways. Four of them were referred to our centre or previously treated surgically or endoscopically without success in other Centres.Results: Eight patients required 9 surgical procedures on the airway: 4 cricotracheal resections, 2 laryngotracheoplasties, 1 tracheal resection, 1 repair of laryngeal cleft and 1 foreign body removal with cardiopulmonary bypass through anterior tracheal opening. Moreover, in 1 case secondary aortopexy was performed. All patients achieved finally good results, but two of them required two surgeries and most required endoscopic manoeuvres after surgery. The most complex cases were the ones who had already been previously treated.Conclusions: The treatment of paediatric airway anomalies requires a dedicated multidisciplinary approach and a single tertiary care Centre providing rapid access to endoscopic and surgical manoeuvres on upper and lower airways and the possibility to start immediately cardiopulmonary bypass or ECMO.The preliminary experience of the Tracheal Team shows that good results can be obtained with this multidisciplinary approach in the treatment of complicated cases. The centralization of all the cases in one or few national Centres should be considered.
