“Everything was both very fast and very slow at the same time”
Since its enactment, Organic Law 3/2021 on the Regulation of Euthanasia has altered the experience and professional practice of numerous individuals within the healthcare field in Spain. This impact is evident in how these professionals perceive the various temporalities involved in the process. Using the notion of heterochrony, this article captures this multi-temporality through an interpretive phenomenological analysis of 29 interviews and thr…
Health program for prEvention of cardiovascuLar disEases based on a risk screeNing strategy with Ankle-brachial index
Introduction: The use of risk functions to individualize preventive interventions is a key strategy in the primary prevention of coronary heart diseases (CHD). Unfortunately, most risk functions still fail to identify many individuals who will experience a cardiovascular (CV) event. Detecting individuals with asymptomatic peripheral artery disease (PAD) with a new risk function could improve CV risk classification. The aim is to evaluate the effe…
Spiritual Complexity in Palliative Home Care in Spain
This study examined spiritual complexity in end-of-life patients cared for by palliative care teams in Catalonia, Spain, using the HexCom model. Among 1818 patients (55.9% men, average age 75.7), spiritual complexity remained stable (37.5% initially, 35.5% final), while high complexity increased from 8.3 to 11.2%. Intrapersonal complexity was the most common (19.7%), followed by transpersonal (18.4%), and interpersonal (6.8%). Emotional complexit…
Efectividad de la metodología de aula inversa en el ámbito universitario. Una revisión sistemática

Examinar las asociaciones entre las dimensiones del modelo de complejidad asistencial HexCom y la ubicación de la muerte. Estudio observacional longitudinal multicéntrico en pacientes con enfermedad avanzada tratados por los equipos de soporte a la atención domiciliaria en Cataluña. Se recogieron edad, sexo, estado funcional y cognitivo, tipo de enfermedad, cuidador/a principal, trabajador/a familiar, lugar de la muerte y complejidad tras la prim…
Implementation of Assisted Dying in Catalonia
The approval of the Spanish Law for the Regulation of Euthanasia in March 2021 entails a profound social change that has direct implications for professional practice at all levels of care. There is no information available about the experiences of the professionals participating in the process of implementing the law in our country, nor any guide as to what might represent good practices in euthanasia in the context of the Mediterranean countrie…
Spirometry and Smoking Cessation in Primary Care
Regular and detailed feedback of spirometry results with smokers increases smoking cessation. Specifically, the likelihood of quitting smoking in the intervention group is 1.42 times higher than in the control group ( p = 0.018)
Influenza and Pertussis Maternal Vaccination Coverage and Influencing Factors in Spain
The purpose was to determine the coverage of maternal vaccination against influenza and pertussis, and the characteristics associated with being vaccinated, in a health area of Catalonia, Spain. Some 36,032 anonymized and computerized clinical records registries of pregnant women from Primary Care Centres (e-CAP database) were analysed, from between 2015 and 2018. Vaccination coverage and the association with sociodemographic variables and clinic…

MÉTODOS: Estudio observacional, descriptivo y transversal, realizado con profesionales confinados en domicilio entre el 11 de marzo y el 31 de mayo de 2020. Se envió por correo electrónico un cuestionario con 18 preguntas cerradas y una abierta. Se realizó un anál…
Intercultural Communication between Long-Stay Immigrants and Catalan Primary Care Nurses
There is a gap between the preferences of immigrant patients and their experiences with intercultural communication. This study aims to explore the experiences and perspectives of long-stay immigrants on intercultural communication in encounters with primary care (PC) nurses. Participants were selected by purposive sampling at the Maresme Primary Care Center. A focus group and five in-depth interviews with long-stay immigrants from eight countrie…
Primary Care Records of Chronic-Disease Patient Adherence to Treatment
The goal of managing adherence (AD) is to achieve better medication use by patients in order to maximize benefits and reduce risks. With the aim of improving treatment adherence by patients, we carried out a descriptive study to obtain information related to adherence management in primary care. Inclusion criteria were as follows: patients that had at least one record of any treatment adherence assessment variable. For those that had more than on…
Impact of the Covid-19 Pandemic on Burnout in Primary Care Physicians in Catalonia
Burnout is endemic among primary care physicians. It has been associated with lower patient satisfaction, reduced health outcomes, and increased costs. The COVID-19 pandemic has pushed burnout in primary care professionals to the edge
Gender and Observed Complexity in Palliative Home Care
This study analyses gender differences in the complexity observed in palliative home care through a multicentre longitudinal observational study of patients with advanced disease treated by palliative home care teams in Catalonia (Spain). We used the HexCom model, which includes six dimensions and measures three levels of complexity: high (non-modifiable situation), medium (difficult) and low. Results: N = 1677 people, 44% women. In contrast with…
Female Genital Mutilation
Knowledge of these harmful practices and a preventive approach from a transcultural perspective may represent a positive intervention model for integrative care of immigrants, respecting their values and culture while also being effective in eliminating the physical and psychic consequences of FGM
The Peripheral Arterial disease study (Perart/ARTPER)
The prevalence of peripheral arterial disease is low, higher in males and increases with age in both sexes. In addition to previously described risk factors we found a protector effect in physical exercise and overweight
Incidence and risk factors of exacerbations among COPD patients in primary health care
The results will be relevant to provide knowledge about natural history of the initial phases of the COPD and the impact and incidence of the exacerbations on the patients with mild-moderate forms of the disease. These data may be important to know the milder forms of exacerbation which are often silent or very little expressed clinically
Peripheral Arterial Disease Study (Perart)
In this study we hope to determine the prevalence of peripheral arterial disease, especially the silent forms, in the general population and establish its relationship with cardiovascular morbimortality. A low AAI may be a better marker of arterial disease than the classical cardiovascular risk factors and may, therefore, contribute to improving the predictive value of the equations of cardiovascular risk and thereby allowing optimisation of mult…
