From Patient to Person
Narrative medicine is defined as medicine practiced with the competence to absorb, interpret, and respond to narratives. We hereby present a resource compiling narrative medicine texts, aiming to make narratives created by patients and/or their families fully accessible to citizens, by developing a documentary database and describing its characteristics. Active bibliographic search, March–June 2022 for narratives in Spanish and/or Catalan written…
Seizures, climate and pollution
Background Epilepsy, a chronic neurological disorder affecting more than 65 million people worldwide, is characterized by recurrent seizures caused by abnormal neuronal discharges. Beyond its diverse etiologies, growing evidence suggests that environmental and meteorological factors, including air pollution, may influence seizure occurrence. Objective To evaluate the association between meteorological variables, air pollutants, and hospital admis…
A comparison of emotional wellbeing and burnout of primary care professionals in 2014 and 2021
Background: Due to the pandemic that started in February-March 2020 and after many years of economic restrictions suffered by our health system, the levels of stress, exhaustion and suffering among health workers has increased. Objective: Our study aims to perform a comparative analysis of the degree of burnout and emotional wellbeing among health professionals between 2014 and 2021. Methods: This is a comparative descriptive study of two cohorts…
An extraordinary wave of Sars-CoV2, the youngest and the least serious
The second wave of SARS-CoV2 in our health region began at the end of June 2020 coinciding with the widespread decrease in cases in all areas of Catalonia. This resulted in the relaxation of measures that coincided with the end of the school year and the arrival of seasonal workers for the fruit-picking campaign. This led to a rapid increase in cases that culminated in perimeter confinement of the Segrià in July 2020, the only such measure impose…
Platelet levels and age are determinants of survival after mild–moderate TBI
Introduction Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a very important reason for consultation in emergency departments. Methods A hospital cohort study with patients who attended a hospital emergency department between June 1, 2018 and December 31, 2020 due to TBI was studied. Clinical and sociodemographic variables were recorded. The levels of biomarkers and management variables were used. Qualitative variables were analyzed using Pearson's chi-square t…
Individual Freedom in the Initial Response to Covid-19
The COVID-19 pandemic has been a phenomenal challenge to global health care and will continue to be so in the upcoming months. Beyond its medical toll, COVID-19 has also exacerbated pre-existing social issues and created new inequalities. This has generated a series of ethical problems that will need to be carefully analyzed to avoid repeating similar mistakes in the context of other crises. Among those, we discuss here the bioethical implication…
Preliminary Results of a Screening Programme for Chlamydia in an Asymptomatic Young Population in Spain
Introduction: Chlamydia trachomatis (CT) infection has increased in recent years, reaching 127 million cases in 2016. Possible complications, especially among women, require intervention for early detection of the infection. The objective of our study was to determine the prevalence of CT infection in a young, sexually active, asymptomatic population. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted between December 2017 and 31 December 2018 among …
Cross-sectional study of Sars-CoV2 clinical characteristics in an immigrant population attended in a Hospital Emergency Department in the Catalunya Health Region in Spain
The immigrant population is generally younger and less infected than the population at large. In addition, the use of social resources to guarantee patient isolation has often proved essential in controlling outbreaks that have arisen in these communities
