O presente artigo discute e reflecte os resultados obtidos através da análise de situações de queda, em contexto de internamento hospitalar, especificamente no serviço de internamento de cardiologia, relacionando as mesmas com a avaliação obtida na aplicação da escala de Quedas de Morse (EQM). A partir deste estudo, identificou-se que as características do serviço, e concretamente dos doentes que aí são interna...
AIMS: Portugal has one of the lowest rates of primary percutaneous coronary intervention (p-PCI) in Western Europe. This study assessed the progress of Portuguese p-PCI performance indicators one year after Portugal joined the Stent for Life (SFL) initiative. METHODS AND RESULTS: Two national surveys were carried out, each covering a period of one month: the first when Portugal joined the SFL in 2011 (Moment Ze...
Introduction: Traumatic brain injury has a considerable socio-economic impact, being a major cause of morbi-mortality, often with permanent disability. We sought to characterize health resource utilization of adult traumatic brain injury patients in Portugal between 2000 and 2010. Material and Methods: Retrospective study of medical records of adult patients with ICD9 diagnostic code of traumatic brain injury i...
The mercury bioaccumulation and population dynamics of the mysid Mesopodopsis slabberi was assessed along a mercury gradient in Ria de Aveiro (Portugal). M. slabberi is one of the most important mysid species in European temperate coastal shallow waters playing a key ecological role. Nevertheless, no references were found concerning the possible consequences of the Hg on the trophodynamics of these coastal ecos...
The effects of mercury contamination on the population structure and dynamics of the gastropod Peringia ulvae (also known as Hydrobia ulvae) and its impact on the trophic web were assessed along a mercury gradient in Ria de Aveiro (Portugal). The gastropod was revealed to be a tolerant species to the contaminant, since the highest densities, biomasses and growth productivity values were recorded at the intermed...
Um doente internado num hospital, pode receber até dezoito doses de medicação por dia e um enfermeiro pode administrar até cinquenta medicamentos num turno, estando assim no centro da possibilidade do erro (1). Embora o Hospital Prof. Dr. Fernando Fonseca EPE (HFF) disponha de um sistema de notificação de ocorrências que permite a notificação de qualquer tipo de ocorrências, de forma anónima ou não, a realidade...
A utilização da madeira enquanto material estrutural é um aspeto abordado com algum receio ou até desconhecimento por parte dos elementos intervenientes no processo de construção civil, sendo ainda uma área pouco lecionada e muitas vezes excluída dos planos curriculares em Engenharia Civil. Assim sendo é importante o surgimento de trabalhos relacionados com esta matéria, relembrando ao sector da construção civi...
Strain Hardening Cementitious Composites (SHCC) can be distinguished from other types of fiber reinforced cement-based matrix composites by the typical pseudo-strain hardening behavior they develop in tension. The design of Strain Hardening Cementitious Composites (SHCC) towards the development of multiple cracking in tension is based on the micro-mechanisms involved in the cracking process, including the fiber...
The 11th International Symposium on Fiber Reinforced Polymer for Reinforced Concrete Structures (FRPRCS11), an event co-sponsored by IIFC, was held 26-28 June at the Vila Flor Cultural Centre of Guimarães City, in Portugal. Following peer review, 148 extended abstracts and full papers were accepted and published in the proceedings. Approximately 170 delegates representing 38 countries and 137 institutions were ...
Food safety it’s crucial for our life and this study has the purpose to characterize some microbiologic parameters in a pre-industrial company when producing salted and cured meat Meat from sheep and goat was transformed in a semi-industrial local and traditional firm to produce a salted and dried meat product, called as manta. In this work was assemble the total number of mesophyll and psychrophiles bacteria (...
