Sports and recreation management is addressed here using a model that combines the policies and methodologies applied in the Costa Rican context as a result of a concern to identify the real needs in the sports, recreation, and health promotion fields through the different manifestations of human movement.  This approach has been developed during eight years of work in the Costa Rican Sports and Recreation Institute (Instituto Costarricense del Deporte y la Recreación-ICODER) together with different Costa Rican communities, both rural and urban, and local organizations, such as Comprehensive Development Community Associations, Sports and Recreation Community Boards (CCDR), Municipal Mayorships, and NGOs, among others.  This article particularly takes into consideration the experience of the CCDRs as entities that have been given the responsibility by the Costa Rican Government to promote and manage municipal sports and recreation services with a convenient offering that would meet the needs of users or customers.  In this way, this article is aimed at answering the question on how Boards should conduct an efficient management in a way that they also meet the needs of public users or customers in the municipalities of the country, by proposing a management model that serves as an additional instrument to improving the already existing services managed by the aforementioned entities.  This study presents a model of Costa Rican management structured with the theoretical elements that currently define the organization and planning of sports and recreation as a service.

No data has apparently been published on morbidity and outpatient service of faculty and staff of a distance university.  This report presents such data from the Universidad Estatal a Distancia (Costa Rican State University for Distance Education). The participants in this study were the employees who were outpatients between January 15, 2004 and December 15, 2006.  Instead of using a sample, the entire population was studied with a total of 1,526 medical records. Procedure: During the first stage all of the medical records were read and the morbidity data was tabulated.  Subsequently, this information was statistically analyzed using Statgraphics Centurion XV. The main findings were that 50% of the patients used the outpatient service only once during the study period and that most of them were between 20 and 50 years of age.  The days with the most consultations were Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays.  The number of consultations was relatively stable throughout the year, with a slight increase in June. The three main causes for visiting the service were: upper respiratory tract diseases, muscular-skeletal disorders, and irritated digestive system problems. Main conclusions: Most of the consultations were from the departments with the more faculty and staff members; however, some departments had extremely high or low consultation rates per capita, maybe due to factors such as pathologies that require periodic control, geographical proximity, and psycho-social issues of patients who create a vicious circle due to the somatization of such problems.  The hypothesis that this population’s morbidity rate would differ from the national average because of its high educational level was rejected.  Nevertheless, the hypothesis that there are weekly and yearly cycles was maintained.

En este estudio se analiza la asociación entre la exposición a diversos factores —de biotipo, socioeconómicos y patológicos— y la alteración del perfil de lípidos sanguíneos (dislipidemia) en pacientes adscritos al Área de Salud de Montes de Oca. Se realizó un estudio de caso-control, con un total de 135 casos e igual cantidad de controles, entre 20 y 65 años, a los que se les hizo un perfil de lípidos sanguíneos durante el año 2006. Las variables estudiadas fueron: edad, sexo, índice de masa corporal, tipo de aseguramiento, estado de portador de hipertensión arterial, de diabetes mellitus o de ambas patologías crónicas a la vez. Se realizó un análisis univariado, seguido de un análisis multivariado, mediante un modelo logístico múltiple. La única variable asociada con la dislipidemia fue el índice de masa corporal, tanto en el análisis univariado como en el multivariado; las variables restantes no mostraron asociación estadística. Aquellos pacientes con mayor índice de masa corporal presentan un mayor riesgo de tener un perfil alterado de lípidos sanguíneos.
