Evoluzione dell'ente training center: il caso Automobili Lamborghini S.p.a

La presente tesi, redatta durante un tirocinio presso l’azienda Automobili Lamborghini S.p.a., ha come fine ultimo la descrizione di attività volte all’evoluzione dell’ente Training Center facente parte dell’area industriale. L’ente Training center è responsabile dell'organizzazione, dell'erogazione e del monitoraggio della formazione incentrata sulle cosiddette technical skills utili per il miglioramento o il rafforzamento delle competenze e delle conoscenze tecniche degli operatori. La prima attività descritta ha lo scopo di creare un database contenente tutte le competenze che ogni operatore deve possedere per poter lavorare autonomamente su una determinata stazione di lavoro al fine di individuare il gap di competenze. L’analisi condotta ha come obiettivi: la pianificazione strategica della forza lavoro, la mappatura dell’intera organizzazione, l’implementazione (ove necessario) di nuovi training, l’aumento della produttività, e l’aumento della competitività aziendale. In seguito, è stata svolta un’analisi delle matrici di flessibilità, ovvero delle matrici che forniscono informazioni su quanti blue collars sono in grado di lavorare su determinate stazioni e in quale ruolo (operatore in training, operatore autonomo o operatore specializzato e quindi in grado di assumere il ruolo di trainer). Studiando tali matrici sono state identificate delle regole che rendono il processo di training on the job il più efficace ed efficiente possibile con o scopo, da una parte di evitare eccessive ore di training e quindi eccessivo dispendio economico, dall’altra, quello di riuscire a coprire tutte le stazioni considerando i picchi di assenteismo della forza lavoro. Infine, si è rivelata necessaria l’implementazione di un nuovo training, il “train the tutor”, ovvero un percorso di formazione riservato ai dipendenti potenzialmente in grado di insegnare attività in cui loro sono specializzati ad operatori in training.

The Centers for High Cost Medication (Centros de Medicação de Alto Custo, CEDMAC), Health Department, São Paulo were instituted by project in partnership with the Clinical Hospital of the Faculty of Medicine, USP, sponsored by the Foundation for Research Support of the State of São Paulo (Fundação de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado de São Paulo, FAPESP) aimed at the formation of a statewide network for comprehensive care of patients referred for use of immunobiological agents in rheumatological diseases. The CEDMAC of Hospital de Clínicas, Universidade Estadual de Campinas (HC-Unicamp), implemented by the Division of Rheumatology, Faculty of Medical Sciences, identified the need for standardization of the multidisciplinary team conducts, in face of the specificity of care conducts, verifying the importance of describing, in manual format, their operational and technical processes. The aim of this study is to present the methodology applied to the elaboration of the CEDMAC/HC-Unicamp Manual as an institutional tool, with the aim of offering the best assistance and administrative quality. In the methodology for preparing the manuals at HC-Unicamp since 2008, the premise was to obtain a document that is participatory, multidisciplinary, focused on work processes integrated with institutional rules, with objective and didactic descriptions, in a standardized format and with electronic dissemination. The CEDMAC/HC-Unicamp Manual was elaborated in 10 months, with involvement of the entire multidisciplinary team, with 19 chapters on work processes and techniques, in addition to those concerning the organizational structure and its annexes. Published in the electronic portal of HC Manuals in July 2012 as an e-Book (ISBN 978-85-63274-17-5), the manual has been a valuable instrument in guiding professionals in healthcare, teaching and research activities.

Pregnancy In Women Undergoing Hemodialysis: Case Series In A Southeast Brazilian Reference Center.

To describe maternal and neonatal outcomes in pregnant women undergoing hemodialysis in a referral center in Brazilian Southeast side. Retrospective and descriptive study, with chart review of all pregnancies undergoing hemodialysis that were followed-up at an outpatient clinic of high- risk prenatal care in Southeast Brazil. Among the 16 women identified, 2 were excluded due to follow-up loss. In 14 women described, hypertension was the most frequent cause of chronic renal failure (half of cases). The majority (71.4%) had performed hemodialysis treatment for more than one year and all of them underwent 5 to 6 hemodialysis sessions per week. Eleven participants had chronic hypertension, 1 of which was also diabetic, and 6 of them were smokers. Regarding pregnancy complications, 1 of the hypertensive women developed malignant hypertension (with fetal growth restriction and preterm delivery at 29 weeks), 2 had acute pulmonary edema and 2 had abruption placenta. The mode of delivery was cesarean section in 9 women (64.3%). All neonates had Apgar score at five minutes above 7. To improve perinatal and maternal outcomes of women undergoing hemodialysis, it is important to ensure multidisciplinary approach in referral center, strict control of serum urea, hemoglobin and maternal blood pressure, as well as close monitoring of fetal well-being and maternal morbidities. Another important strategy is suitable guidance for contraception in these women.

Indications For In Vitro Fertilization At A Public Center For Reproductive Health In Campinas, Brazil.

To assess the sociodemographic profile and gynecologic and obstetric characteristics of women referred to a public reference center in Campinas, Brazil, for in vitro fertilization (IVF). Women referred between April 1, 2008, and October 31, 2009, were eligible for inclusion in a cross-sectional study. Participants were interviewed about sociodemographic characteristics, obstetric and gynecologic history, and etiologic factors resulting in the referral. Preliminary clinical examinations performed elsewhere were evaluated. A total of 176 women were included, of whom 129 (73.3%) presented with tubal factor infertility. Tubal ligation had been performed in 66 (37.5%) women. Overall, 121 (68.8%) women were aged 30 years old or less, 110 (62.5%) had received more than 8 years of schooling, 123 (69.6%) had had infertility for up to 5 years, and 99 (56.3%) did not have any children. Moreover, 25 (14.2%) women had endometriosis and 25 (14.2%) had a male factor issue. A previous ectopic pregnancy was reported for 20 (11.4%) women and pelvic inflammatory disease for 49 (27.8%). Tubal factor infertility was the most common indication for IVF. Preventive measures are required, in addition to policies that ensure access to high-complexity treatments in the public sector.

A menina mãe: incesto e maternidade

Trata-se de um estudo de caso de uma adolescente de quinze anos, vítima de incesto perpetrado pelo padrasto, que teve como consequência sua gravidez e o nascimento de uma criança. O principal objetivo é discutir a reorganização familiar da adolescente, seu silêncio e o de sua família em relação ao abuso sexual. O contexto de pesquisa foi o Centro de Referência em Assistência Social (CRAS) de uma cidade de periferia. O método utilizado foi a observação participante. A organização das informações possibilitou construir Zonas de Sentido que se constituem em indicadores de vulnerabilidade: sua relação com a violência sofrida; sua relação com a família; sua relação com a filha e sua relação com a escola. Nesse caso, o silêncio, o isolamento e a migração para outra cidade foram opções de proteção. O estudo da gravidez nesta circunstância requer uma compreensão particularizada em relação ao estudo de adolescentes grávidas em geral.

Calibration of the dietary data obtained from the Brazilian center of the Natural History of HPV Infection in Men study: the HIM Study

The objective of this study was to estimate the regressions calibration for the dietary data that were measured using the quantitative food frequency questionnaire (QFFQ) in the Natural History of HPV Infection in Men: the HIM Study in Brazil. A sample of 98 individuals from the HIM study answered one QFFQ and three 24-hour recalls (24HR) at interviews. The calibration was performed using linear regression analysis in which the 24HR was the dependent variable and the QFFQ was the independent variable. Age, body mass index, physical activity, income and schooling were used as adjustment variables in the models. The geometric means between the 24HR and the calibration-corrected QFFQ were statistically equal. The dispersion graphs between the instruments demonstrate increased correlation after making the correction, although there is greater dispersion of the points with worse explanatory power of the models. Identification of the regressions calibration for the dietary data of the HIM study will make it possible to estimate the effect of the diet on HPV infection, corrected for the measurement error of the QFFQ.

Acupuntura: motivações de médicos para a procura de especialização

Este estudo quanti-qualitativo objetivou identificar concepções sobre Medicina Convencional e Acu puntura que contribuem para entender os motivos que levam médicos a procurarem conhecer ou se especializar em Acupuntura. Foram pesquisados 175 médicos do Curso de Desenvolvimento em Me dicina Chinesa − Acupuntura, do Center-AO − Centro de Pesquisa e Estudo da Medicina Chinesa e Universidade Federal de São Paulo − Escola Paulista de Medicina (Unifesp - EPM), com questio nário composto por perguntas abertas e fechadas. Os dados obtidos foram analisados estatisticamente, e as respostas foram analisadas com a técnica de análise de conteúdo, buscando desvelar unidades de significado. A partir disso, foram estabelecidas categorias gerais e específicas, que passaram a dar significado aos discursos. Dessa forma, foram obtidos três grupos categoriais: "aprimoramento profis sional", "ampliar seu próprio horizonte de vida" e "compreender o paciente em uma dimensão mais abrangente". Nossos dados revelaram que os médicos desejam exercer a Acupuntura de forma inte grada à Medicina Convencional, no bojo da qual a Acupuntura vem se firmando como especialidade médica.

Perfil dos usuários de um centro de atenção psicossocial infantojuvenil da grande São Paulo, Brasil

INTRODUÇÃO: os Centros de Atenção Psicossocial Infantojuvenil (CAPSi) constituem ponta de lança das ações da Reforma Psiquiátrica Brasileira e têm por finalidade o atendimento de crianças e adolescentes com transtornos psíquicos graves. O objetivo é caracterizar o perfil dos usuários de um CAPSi, considerando sexo, idade, hipótese diagnóstica, origem do encaminhamento, inserção escolar e motivo de consulta. MÉTODO: por meio de um protocolo, foram coletados dados da totalidade de prontuários ativos de uma unidade da Grande São Paulo - cento e três - no mês de janeiro de 2008. RESULTADOS: a maioria dos usuários atendidos está na faixa etária de cinco a quinze anos (68,9 por cento) e é do sexo masculino (61,2 por cento). O grupo de transtornos de comportamento e transtornos emocionais corresponde a 21,4 por cento, seguido pelos transtornos do desenvolvimento global (16,2 por cento) e retardo mental (10,5 por cento). A maioria dos usuários foi encaminhada pelo Conselho Tutelar (22,3 por cento) e tiveram como principal motivo da consulta queixas neuromotoras (17,5 por cento), escolares (15,5 por cento) e sociocomportamentais (14,6 por cento). CONCLUSÕES: o número elevado de crianças com problemas neuromotores pode indicar características específicas da instituição estudada que absorveu pacientes e profissionais de um antigo serviço de reabilitação. O grande número de questões relevantes não encontradas apontam para a falta de padronização dos prontuários

Reactivity, photolability, and computational studies of the ruthenium nitrosyl complex with a substituted cyclam fac-[Ru(NO)Cl(2)(kappa(3)N(4),N(8),N(11)(1-carboxypropyl)cyclam)]Cl center dot H(2)O

Chemical reactivity, photolability, and computational studies of the ruthenium nitrosyl complex with a substituted cyclam, fac-[Ru(NO)Cl(2)(kappa(3)N(4),N(8),N(11)(1-carboxypropyl)cyclam)]Cl center dot H(2)O ((1-carboxypropyl) cyclam = 3-(1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecan-1-yl) propionic acid)), (I) are described. Chloride ligands do not undergo aquation reactions (at 25 degrees C, pH 3). The rate of nitric oxide (NO) dissociation (k(obs-NO)) upon reduction of I is 2.8 s(-1) at 25 +/- 1 degrees C (in 0.5 mol L(-1) HCl), which is close to the highest value found for related complexes. The uncoordinated carboxyl of I has a pK(a) of similar to 3.3, which is close to that of the carboxyl of the non coordinated (1-carboxypropyl) cyclam (pK(a) = 3.4). Two additional pK(a) values were found for I at similar to 8.0 and similar to 11.5. Upon electrochemical reduction or under irradiation with light (lambda(irr) = 350 or 520 nm; pH 7.4), I releases NO in aqueous solution. The cyclam ring N bound to the carboxypropyl group is not coordinated, resulting in a fac configuration that affects the properties and chemical reactivities of I, especially as NO donor, compared with analogous trans complexes. Among the computational models tested, the B3LYP/ECP28MDF, cc-pVDZ resulted in smaller errors for the geometry of I. The computational data helped clarify the experimental acid-base equilibria and indicated the most favourable site for the second deprotonation, which follows that of the carboxyl group. Furthermore, it showed that by changing the pH it is possible to modulate the electron density of I with deprotonation. The calculated NO bond length and the Ru/NO charge ratio indicated that the predominant canonical structure is [Ru(III)NO], but the Ru-NO bond angles and bond index (b.i.) values were less clear; the angles suggested that [Ru(II)NO(+)] could contribute to the electronic structure of I and b.i. values indicated a contribution from [Ru(IV)NO(-)]. Considering that some experimental data are consistent with a [Ru(II)NO(+)] description, while others are in agreement with [Ru(III)NO], the best description for I would be a linear combination of the three canonical forms, with a higher weight for [Ru(II)NO(+)] and [Ru(III)NO].

Robotic Resection of Intraductal Neoplasm of the Pancreas

Background: Minimally invasive techniques have been revolutionary and provide clinical evidence of decreased morbidity and comparable efficacy to traditional open surgery. Computer-assisted surgical devices have recently been approved for general surgical use. Aim: The aim of this study was to report the first known case of pancreatic resection with the use of a computer-assisted, or robotic, surgical device in Latin America. Patient and Methods: A 37-year-old female with a previous history of radical mastectomy for bilateral breast cancer due to a BRCA2 mutation presented with an acute pancreatitis episode. Radiologic investigation disclosed an intraductal pancreatic neoplasm located in the neck of the pancreas with atrophy of the body and tail. The main pancreatic duct was enlarged. The surgical decision was to perform a laparoscopic subtotal pancreatectomy, using the da Vinci (R) robotic system (Intuitive Surgical, Sunnyvale, CA). Five trocars were used. Pancreatic transection was achieved with vascular endoscopic stapler. The surgical specimen was removed without an additional incision. Results: Operative time was 240 minutes. Blood loss was minimal, and the patient did not receive a transfusion. The recovery was uneventful, and the patient was discharged on postoperative day 4. Conclusions: The subtotal laparoscopic pancreatic resection can safely be performed. The da Vinci robotic system allowed for technical refinements of laparoscopic pancreatic resection. Robotic assistance improved the dissection and control of major blood vessels due to three-dimensional visualization of the operative field and instruments with wrist-type end-effectors.

Intrahepatic Glissonian Approach for Pure Laparoscopic Left Hemihepatectomy

Background: Recent advances in laparoscopic devices and experience with advanced techniques have increased the indications for laparoscopic liver. Aim: The aim of this work was to present a video with technical aspects of a pure laparoscopic left hemi-hepatectomy (segments 2, 3, and 4) by using the intrahepatic Glissonian approach and control of venous outflow without hilar dissection or the Pringle maneuver. Patient and Method: A 63-year-old woman with a 5-cm solitary liver metastasis was referred for treatment. Four trocars were used. The left lobe was pulled upward and the lesser omentum was divided, exposing Arantius' ligament. This ligament is a useful landmark for the identification of the main left Glissonian pedicle. A small anterior incision was made in front of the hilum, and a large clamp was introduced behind the Arantius' ligament toward the anterior incision, allowing control of the left main sheath. Ischemic discoloration of the left liver was achieved and marked with cautery. The vascular clamp was replaced by a stapler. If ischemic delineation was coincident with a previously marked area, the stapler was fired. The left hepatic vein was dissected and encircled. Parenchymal transection and vascular control of the hepatic veins were accomplished with a Harmonic scalpel and an endoscopic stapling device, as appropriate. All these steps were performed without the Pringle maneuver and without hand assistance. Results: Operative time was 220 minutes with minimum blood loss. Hospital stay was 4 days. Pathology showed free surgical margins. The patient is alive with no signs of recurrence 18 months after the operation. Conclusion: Totally laparoscopic left hemihepatectomy is safe and feasible in selected patients and should be considered for patients with benign or malignant liver neoplasms. The described technique, with the use of the intrahepatic Glissonian approach and control of venous outflow, may facilitate laparoscopic left hemihepatectomy by reducing the technical difficulties in pedicle control and may decrease bleeding during liver transection.

Half-Pringle Maneuver: A Useful Tool in Laparoscopic Liver Resection

Introduction: Laparoscopic liver resections are becoming a common procedure, and bleeding remains the major concern during parenchymal transection. Total vascular inflow occlusion can be performed, but ischemic reperfusion injuries can lead to postoperative morbidity. On the other hand, hemihepatic inflow occlusion, leading to hemiliver ischemia, decreases the amount of liver parenchyma submitted to reperfusion damage and offers the advantage of reduced blood loss. Objective: The aim of this work was to describe our experience with laparoscopic the half-Pringle maneuver for segmentar or nonanatomic liver resctions. Patients and Methods: Eight patients submitted to laparoscopic liver resection in a single tertiary center. Results: There were 5 women and 3 men with a mean age of 40.2 years (range, 26-54). Mean tumor size was 4.1 cm (range, 2.6-6.0), and mean hospital stay was 3.1 days (1-5). There were 3 liver adenomas, 2 hepatocellular carcinomas, 1 metastatic melanoma, 1 metastatic colorectal carcinoma, and 1 peripheral colangiocarcinoma. No postoperative complications or mortalities were observed. Conclusions: Results demonstrate that laparoscopic liver resection with the half-Pringle maneuver is feasible and safe and may be included in the technical armamentarium of laparoscopic liver resections for a selected group of patients.
