Proposta de um dispositivo para ajuste automático da altura de uma cama hospitalar

This paper proposes a mechanical device to adapt a simple model of hospital bed used in the Emergency Department at Santa Casa of Guaratinguetá, allowing the bed’s height adjustment with electromechanical drive. This adaptation aims to introduce improvements in the routine work of nurses and reduce ergonomic problems stemming from repetitive strain during the transfer of patients to stretchers and wheelchairs, as well as providing more comfort to the bedridden patient. The device is mainly composed of: an electric induction motor used to drive the engine, a steel spindle with square thread, which allows axial displacement of the bed, a transmission system with pulleys and belt, which transmits power supplied by the motor to the spindle. The mechanism allows the height of the bed is regulated between 400 and 800 mm. The estimated implementation cost of this proposal is lower than the acquisition cost of a commercial hospital bed with the same features, which confirms the feasibility of the proposed solution

Proposta de um dispositivo para adaptação em uma cama hospitalar para ajuste de altura

In hospitals, health professionals may face different situations and problems. By following them, it is remarkable that one of the difficulties is related to the support provided by the facilities to carry out their work. This also affects the quality of treatment offered to patients. One of the points of improvement that could be studied is hospital beds. The Fawler's simplest hospital bed type, used in most Brazilian public hospitals, is designed with an ergonomic average height that offers a default position for analysis and treatment of patients. There is no possibility of adjusting the height of those beds, and hence there is a limitation in this regard since that height is fixed, but the physical structures of the workers and patients may vary widely and there may be a conflict when there are people too large or small involved in this process. Beyond that, studies by experts show that beds with height adjustment decreases the muscular effort and improve the movement quality of the spine of nursing staff, reducing the force on certain vertebrae and also the ergonomic risk. Of course, patient comfort is also affected accordingly. As the beds made with height adjustment are very expensive, this study aims to design a device to adapt the not adjustable beds. The project must be viable from an economic and mechanic standpoint, being able to adapt both old and new simplest Fawler hospital bed models, since their dimensions are similar. The final result shows that it is possible to adapt such beds using the designed concept at a viable cost. Furthermore, this concept could be applied in other bed types or objects that have hollow feet

Efeito da aplicação de biocarvão, cama de frango e formulado NPK no estado nutricional de laranjeira em Terra Mulata

Growing in orange on Terra Mulata has been submitted nutrient limitation requiring correction in agricultural areas. The application of biochar associated with another source of nutrients can be a viable alternative to increase the efficiency of fertilizers and reduce losses in the areas. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of biochar, poultry litter and NPK in the nutritional status of orange trees grown in an Oxisol with anthropogenic A horizon (Terra Mulata). The study was conducted in a rural property landfall in Manacapuru (AM) in a randomized block design with eight treatments using biochar, poultry litter and NPK (4-14-8) applied in isolation and associates. To review two samples were taken at different periods of sheets to determine the nutritional status. Fertilizers applied did not increase the efficiency in the availability of contents of N, P, Fe and Zn, being the latter below the range of suitable content. As for the K, compost chicken manure and their combinations increased their availability, and the highest levels of Mg were found in the control treatment.

Otimização de método para determinação de antimicrobianos em cama de frango por clae-flu

O extraordinário desenvolvimento da produção avícola, particularmente no setor de frango de corte, tornou o Brasil um importante produtor e exportador de carne de frango. Esse fato aliado a proibição da utilização de cama de frango como ração para ruminantes pela Instrução Normativa nº15 de 17 de julho de 2001, fez com que este resíduo se tornasse um problema ecológico e de saúde pública de alta relevância, tanto pelo volume de resíduos gerado, quanto pela composição do mesmo, que pode conter diversos fármacos utilizados neste tipo de manejo, além de uréia, que após a oxidação natural no ambiente, resulta em nitrato que tem alto poder de contaminação de mananciais hídricos, principalmente subterrâneos. Dentre as substâncias que podem estar presentes na cama de frango, estão os antimicrobianos, utilizados como promotores de crescimento das aves. No Brasil, são pouquíssimos os trabalhos dedicados a investigar a ocorrência e o impacto ambiental de antimicrobianos. Desta maneira, este trabalho teve como objetivo otimizar e validar método para análise de três fluoroquinolonas (ciprofloxacina, norfloxacina e enrofloxacina) em cama de frango. O método estudado baseou-se em trabalhos da literatura em que moléculas similares foram analisadas em diversas matrizes, compreendendo a extração em ultrassom com acetonitrila acidificada com ácido acético (3% v/v) e análise por CLAE-FLU, modo isocrático com a fase móvel composta por 0,02 M H3PO4:ACN (83:17, v/v). Foram avaliados os parâmetros cromatográficos quanto à resolução, eficiência, linearidade e limites de detecção e quantif-1 para os três analitos. O tempo de análise do método cromatográfico otimizado é de 7,5 minutos. Avaliou-se também o efeito de matriz que foi significativo para norfloxacina e ciprofloxacina, correspondendo a 16 e 20%, respectivamente. Para a enrofloxacina a amostra...

Especialização hemisférica e assimetrias comportamentais: o lado da cama tem gênero?

Data relative on the side occupied by females in double beds were collected in order to evaluate the feasebility to carryout a more extensive study to determine if this behavioral pattern is lateralized. Information relative to the side occupied in the bed, manual lateralization, how long lived togheter, and other related questions were collected in a sample of 229 women aged from 20 to 65 years old. Total frequencies of the bed side occupied showed to be equivalent, however, the left side showed to be chosen significantly more (70%)(χ2 = 5.4; 1 d.f.; p<0.05) when the choice was stated to be spontaneous (i.e, not determined by an impositive factor) . It is concluded that the obtained data give favourable support to an extensive study on the subject, which inserts into the area of research devoted to the understanding of the functional characteristics of central nervous functioning.
