A beleza total

A beleza de Gertrudes fascinava todo mundo e a própria Gertrudes. Os espelhos pasmavam diante de seu rosto, recusando-se a refletir as pessoas da casa e muito menos as visitas. Não ousavam abranger o corpo inteiro de Gertrudes. Era impossível, de tão belo, e o espelho do banheiro, que se atreveu a isto, partiu-se em mil estilhaços.
A moça já não podia sair à rua, pois os veículos paravam à revelia dos condutores, e estes, por sua vez, perdiam toda a capacidade de ação. Houve um engarrafamento monstro, que durou uma semana, embora Gertrudes houvesse voltado logo para casa.
O Senado aprovou lei de emergência, proibindo Gertrudes de chegar à janela. A moça vivia confinada num salão em que só penetrava sua mãe, pois o mordomo se suicidara com uma foto de Gertrudes sobre o peito.
Gertrudes não podia fazer nada. Nascera assim, este era o seu destino fatal: a extrema beleza. E era feliz, sabendo-se incomparável. Por falta de ar puro, acabou sem condições de vida, e um dia cerrou os olhos para sempre. Sua beleza saiu do corpo e ficou pairando, imortal. O corpo já então enfezado de Gertrudes foi recolhido ao jazigo, e a beleza de Gertrudes continuou cintilando no salão fechado a sete chaves.

Impact of Point-of-Care Technologies on Healthcare
by Impelsys Admin | Apr 25, 2019

Point-of-Care Technologies is a set of technologies used at the location of patient care helping improve healthcare outcomes. Blood glucose monitors, urine dipsticks, pregnancy tests, rapid strep tests, rapid HIV tests, hemoglobin level tests are common examples of PoCT. In the past few years PoCT have advanced and the field is showing strong growth, as evidenced by new clinical or consumer products research and development directions. The widespread use of this set of technologies is driven by healthcare emphasis shifting towards greater healthcare awareness, precision treatment, optimization of patient management process, and chronic disease management − combined with advances in electronic devices and information technology.
Point-of-care technologies add to the effectiveness and efficiency in healthcare delivery. PoC devices provide critical information to clinicians assisting in the management of patient care. Point-of-care technology enables diagnosis at home, in the hospital, in an ambulance, or in the field; it effectively delivers high quality of life care at the patient’s bedside, or in the corner of a consulting room, doing away with procedures that require an entire laboratory and long hours to arrive at a proper diagnosis.
Point-of-Care procedures involve faster and leaner processes as testing is done on bedside and fewer steps are necessary to produce the result.
These are some of the advantages of PoCT:
− They eliminate the need for processing and aliquoting, transporting the specimen to the laboratory, and communicating
results back to the clinical staff.
− Faster access to test results allows for rapid clinical decision making, enabling more appropriate treatments and
interventions.
− They require smaller sample volumes than those needed for traditional laboratory testing.
− They can also help reduce the frequency of testing errors like inappropriate sampling errors, errors during preparation or
packaging of samples, and patient misidentification.
− The fact that PoCT is often performed by the individual providing care to the patient may help decrease post analyticalerrors due to incorrect transmission of test results.

Mobile Devices and Apps for Health Care Professionals: Uses and Benefits
C. Lee Ventola

The use of mobile devices by health care professionals (HCPs) has transformed many aspects of clinical practice. Mobile devices have become commonplace in health care settings, leading to rapid growth in the development of medical software applications (apps) for these platforms. Numerous apps are now available to assist HCPs with many important tasks, such as: information and time management; health record maintenance and access; communications and consulting; reference and information gathering; patient management and monitoring; clinical decision-making; and medical education and training.
Mobile devices and apps provide many benefits for health care professionals (HCPs), perhaps most significantly increased access to point-of-care tools, which has been shown to support better clinical decision-making and improved patient outcomes. However, some HCPs remain reluctant to adopt their use. Despite the benefits they offer, better standards and validation practices regarding mobile medical apps need to be established to ensure the proper use and integration of these increasingly sophisticated tools into medical practice. These measures will raise the barrier for entry into the medical app market, increasing the quality and safety of the apps currently available for use by HCPs.
