La formación del profesional de enfermería incluye tradicionalmente teoría y práctica estructurada en entornos hospitalarios y/o ambulatorios, con la finalidad de que desarrollen las habilidades necesarias para interpretar, intervenir y cuidar a los pacientes. Para el presente estudio se describen las Experiencias del Aprendizaje de la Práctica Clínica en Pasantes de la Licenciatura en Enfermería del periodo 2024-2025. Estudio de tipo cualitativo con enfoque fenomenológico, con nueve pasantes de servicio social seleccionados de 110 de forma aleatoria, a quienes se les realizó entrevista de 20 minutos promedio. El presente estudio se apegó a los lineamientos de la secretaria de Salud en materia de investigación en seres Humanos y a la declaración de Helsinki. Los resultados van desde las experiencias, vivencias, aprendizaje auténtico, escenarios clínicos, habilidades, profesores del área clínica. Se puede concluir que se divide las experiencias en dos momentos primer y segundo semestre, el primero, los estudiantes percibían la pasantía como una oportunidad esencial para aplicar conocimientos teóricos y desarrollar habilidades prácticas en un entorno real. Sin embargo, esta visión inicial estaba acompañada de emociones como miedo y ansiedad, reflejo de la inseguridad ante las exigencias del ámbito clínico y las expectativas de aprendizaje técnico y adaptación a nuevas responsabilidades; en la segunda mitad de la práctica clínica, los participantes valoran la pasantía como una experiencia transformadora, donde adquirieron competencias técnicas como el manejo de equipos médicos y habilidades socioemocionales como la empatía y la resolución de conflictos.
To assess the impact of a nurse-led remote secondary cardiovascular prevention programme versus usual follow-up in patients who have suffered an acute coronary syndrome in terms of major adverse clinical events (MACE), diet, physical exercise, smoking, emotional state, adherence to medical treatment, cardiometabolic profile and anthropometric parameters within one year of discharge.
Prospective, randomised, open-label, evaluator-blinded, multicentre trial.
Between October 17, 2017, and February 5, 2023, patients were randomly assigned to either a usual follow-up of two cardiology visits over 12 months or the nurse-led remote secondary cardiovascular prevention programme, which also included 5 nursing visits (one face-to-face and four remote).
At 12 months, the nurse-led remote prevention programme group (interventional group) had lower smoking rates, greater adherence to medication, greater adherence to the Mediterranean diet, more physical activity, and better perceived health status compared to the usual follow-up group. The interventional group demonstrated a reduction in major adverse clinical events (20.7%) compared to the usual follow-up group (12.4%). This reduction was observed particularly in Acute Coronary Syndrome recurrence, all-cause hospitalisation, and hospitalisation for cardiovascular causes.
Patients randomised to the nurse-led remote prevention programme showed a significant reduction of the MACE, improved lifestyle, and medication adherence at 12 months compared to the usual follow-up group.
This study illustrates the feasibility and efficacy of a remote secondary cardiovascular prevention programme led by advanced practice nurses in patients who have suffered an Acute Coronary Syndrome.

Nos enfocamos en conocer las representaciones de los curanderos náhuatl de los estados de Colima y Jalisco, en relación con el mundo, la salud, la enfermedad, los enfermos; y las prácticas que realizan para tratar de recuperar la salud. Se trata de un estudio descriptivo, fenomenológico, y la recolección de datos se realizó a través de entrevistas semiestructuradas. Para la organización y análisis de los datos, se siguieron las directrices del Modelo Dialéctico Estructural del Cuidado (MDEC), estructurando los datos en tres estructuras: unidad funcional, marco funcional y elemento funcional. Teniendo como resultado, el curandero describe dimensiones de contacto visual y corporal con el paciente, crea un canal no convencional, poniendo en juego pasiones, deseos y sentimientos, en conclusión, El curandero ofrece servicios más cercanos al individuo, proporcionando una «explicación» a los acontecimientos desde la perspectiva biológica, psicológica, ecológica y sobrenatural.
Unplanned hospital readmission (UHR) after paediatric neurosurgery is an important indicator of surgical outcomes. As this field deals with complex cases, there is an increased likelihood of potential complications and the subsequent need for readmission. We estimated paediatric neurosurgery UHR rates globally and identified significant factors contributing to 30-day and 90-day UHR rates in children undergoing neurosurgical procedures.
A systematic review was conducted following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines.
Embase, Medline, CINAHL and Global Index Medicus databases were searched on 17th December 2023.
We included studies that reported unplanned readmissions in the paediatric population within 30 days and 90 days of an index neurosurgical procedure.
Two independent qualified researchers screened studies and extracted data using standardised methods. Risk of bias assessment was done using the Newcastle-Ottawa scale. Narrative synthesis was performed.
2593 titles were identified following the search strategy. 52 studies were included after screening, full-text review and quality appraisal. Most studies were from the USA and are retrospective cohorts. The majority were cranial procedures (n=30), with common ones being shunt procedures for hydrocephalus and cranial tumour resections. 30-day readmissions ranged from 1.4% to 28% while 90-day readmissions ranged from 1.31% to 38.64%. 34 different risk factors were identified. Aetiology-related factors, procedure-specific complexities and age emerged as the three most common. Other common risk factors were complex chronic conditions, race, length of hospital stay and type of medical insurance. The patient’s age was a significant non-modifiable predictor, with younger children generally facing higher odds compared with their older counterparts across different procedures. While early readmissions could be due to disease progression, some were linked to preventable causes. Heterogeneity was also present due to variations in definitions and inclusion of studies from both national databases and single institutions.
Findings from this study contribute to a collective understanding of factors affecting unplanned readmissions in paediatric neurosurgery. UHRs reflect the interplay among surgical complexity, patient characteristics such as age and disease aetiology.
