In this book the use of hybrid simulation in delivery room emergencies is described and shown. The use of a patient actor combined with a task trainer within the same session substantially improve the training for practical management of intrapartum emergencies in real life, reducing the risk of failure of operative vaginal delivery and of related adverse events, including perinatal or maternal complications. Furthermore, simulation with high reality computerized mannequin and scenography of emergency situation can improve technical and manual skills of the participants. For this book and the related videos, a new generation of mannequins suitable for both clinical manoeuvres and ultrasound examination is used to simulate all clinical scenarios of emergency that can happen in the delivery room for both the mother and the child. This unique book is a useful tool for medical students, residents, practicing pediatricians, anesthetists, obstetricians and all health care professionals working in the delivery room in their ability to deal with critical and emergency situations with safety and good medical practice.
Spectropolarimetry embraces the most complete and detailed measurement and analysis of light, as well as its interaction with matter. This book provides an introductory overview of the area, which plays an increasingly important role in modern solar observations. Chapters include a comprehensive description of the polarization state of polychromatic light and its measurement, an overview of astronomical (solar) polarimetry, the radiative transfer equation for polarized light, and the formation of spectral lines in the presence of a magnetic field. Most topics are dealt with within the realm of classical physics, although a small amount of quantum mechanics is introduced where necessary. This text will be a valuable reference for graduates and researchers in astrophysics, solar physics and optics.
Años 30. Teresita y Paulino han desaparecido. Emprenden un viaje rumbo al sur, sin destino fijo. Lo hacen en unos días en los que el desconcierto se apodera de los vecinos que habitan las aldeas castellanoleonesas en los meses previos al inicio de la contienda. En aquellas poblaciones de gente humilde donde todos se conocen, cualquier cambio o movimiento es detectado. Los rumores sobre lo ocurrido corren como la pólvora. Algunos piensan que han huido, otros que los han matado. Así arranca El color de los sueños, una novela en la que la verdad se esconde tras un camino teñido de grises por la crueldad de una guerra que se torna sangrienta para gentes pacíficas y austeras, fieles y leales. En esa España que cambia de color y sonido, con la armonía rota y que se dividía palmo a palmo, día a día, se forma el golpe que ocasiona la separación de Teresita y Paulino en tierras andaluzas, territorio aún desconocido para ellos.
This volume is a comprehensive, critical introduction to vertebrate zooarchaeology, the field that explores the history of human relations with animals from the Pliocene to the Industrial Revolution. The book is organized into five sections, each with an introduction, that leads the reader systematically through this swiftly expanding field. Section One presents a general introduction to zooarchaeology, key definitions, and an historical survey of the emergence of zooarchaeology in the Americas, Europe, Asia, and Africa, and introduces the conceptual approach taken in the book. This volume is designed to allow readers to integrate data from the book along with that acquired elsewhere within a coherent analytical framework. Most of its chapters take the form of critical “review articles,” providing a portal into both the classic and current literature and contextualizing these with original commentary. Summaries of findings are enhanced by profuse illustrations by the author and others.
