In Táchira heartbeat scarce resources are controlled by the experts confirmed




technological advances in heart disease relegated
life expectancy
Every two seconds in the world someone dies as a result of heart disease, according to World Health Organization ( WHO)

María José Aguilar / mjaguilar5@gmail.com
technologies for diagnosis and treatment of heart disease in Venezuela, and consequently in Táchira insufficient in terms of progress compared to other countries like Spain, which since the birth of a baby and even inside the uterus can be diagnosed and treated for diseases such as congenital heart disease.

In Tachira state has not been carried out heart transplants because of lack of proper equipment, because it is a type of operation that requires optimum facilities, medical personnel and equipment necessary to care for and maintain the patient before, during and after surgery of this type. The country

few hospitals that perform heart transplants for adults and children. The case of Latin American Children's Cardiology Hospital Dr. Gilberto Rodríguez Ochoa, located in Caracas, has been operating since 2006 and only until this year are process for conducting these operations in infants since the lack of human resources and medical equipment were not performed.

As technology in heart operations, which have not been made in Venezuela and throughout Latin America, as published on the Web site of El Nacional, "connected in Uruguay's first artificial heart outside a woman." Had heart failure, and this artificial heart device (biventricular) applied on September 3 will keep alive until the transplant. Evolution
medical

However, despite the fact that in Tachira state operations are not carried out as tough as heart transplants, in some form or another in recent years, medical teams have been modified by others with better technology. Thus Yanitza Vázquez, Specialist Cardiologist electrocardiogram Andean Heart Foundation (Fundacor) states that "the existing state of the art equipment, and there Fundacor some, but we are waiting for others."

necessary medical devices found in Fundacor Electrocardiograms are treated, to visualize the structure of the heart valves, "" This is the workhorse of the cardiologist, because it tells us how he is the heart, "said Vazquez. Moreover, it is the stress test, which consists of a treadmill and from there measure heart rate, and there are other teams such as Holter arrhythmia and blood pressure.

Similarly, CT scans are done performing catheterizations avoided, since they require hospitalization while concerned to assess the coronary system, while a scan is performed in an office ignoring the patient's residence to the hospital grounds. Technology


tachirense The Universidad Nacional Experimental del Tachira (UNET) in the laboratory of Bioengineering, both teachers as students of the University are currently undertaking a project that relates to the diagnosis of heart disease through images taken by a scanner, then through an operating system can be modified in three dimensions.

The coordinator of this project, Computer Engineering and professor José Clemente UNET stressed the importance of this type of technology required to reduce diagnosis time and cost while also improving the patient's condition since non-invasive, short time can perform this type of examination.

"The doctor also benefit from this type of software, because with less sophisticated equipment needed four or five days to analyze and evaluate the results, but with this new procedure will immediately see the flaws that exist in every part of the heart, "said Clemente.

This mechanism is being tested by placing filters in the scanner images, causes the cardiac specialist can select the part of the structure of the heart that he wants to or not immediately able to detect any abnormality .

Also, with the aim of creating a comfort to the patient and avoid invasive procedures, the investigator of the Group of Bioengineering, UNET, Juan Mantilla is developing a portion of the heart as it is the left ventricle in three dimensions to study at any length the major human organ movements.

"Every part of the heart is removed, the left ventricle is the most studied, and to transform it into three dimensions by the intensity of the movements of the heart is assigned a certain color to facilitate the study" said blanket. This is how blue is used to distinguish the slightest movements, and the green movement and stronger contractions.


In order to increase project coordinator Augusto Gonzalez Cardiovascular, Renal and Endocrine-Metabolic (Caremt) Táchira, major cardiac pathology in the State are hypertension and congenital malformations and stroke, "this is due to poor nutrition of the people, by eating foods high in fat and salt," said González .

Hypertension according to figures provided by the Health Corporation of Tachira (Corposalud), are among the 10 leading causes of death in the state, recorded in 2007 a total of 10,946 consultations with patients with this type of disease, with a rate of about 947.00.

González explains that this problem is increasing, " why are emphasizing education in the population, to learn to eat healthy, exercise and maintain a comprehensive care without waiting to reach the doctor when it is too late to control both a high and to avoid a congenital malformation children from pregnancy. " Food habits


To determine the eating habits of Tachira was an opinion poll 12 people distributed between the Barrio Obrero sector and the center of the city of San Cristobal, of which only three respondents equivalent to 25 % include in your daily diet foods that are included in the food pyramid, as proteins, minerals, vitamins, and carbohydrates in a balanced way.

while 42% do not know how to classify foods into the categories of proteins, carbohydrates and vitamins, so they do not know if consumed daily. On the other hand, with regard to smoking habit d food intake or seven people (58%) have this lifestyle, with only 25% do not have any vices (three people).

Similarly, for a balance between food intake, excess alcohol consumption and smoking, a question was formulated to determine the amount of exercise practiced by tachirenses respondents as the incorporation healthy food and exercises help maintain optimal health in children, youth and adults.

Thus, as 25% of respondents who happen to be three people perform daily exercises like walking, like other 25% is exercised on a monthly basis without taking a permanent routine. And 33% (four) almost never do physical activity that allows them to maintain Pamper your body.

Within steps of the Food Guide Pyramid incorporating various food groups that need to consume on a daily fat, minerals, protein, vitamin, and simple carbohydrates and complex. However, many individuals are unaware indispensable method and obviates the exaggerated proportions in most cases.

Therefore, only two respondents (17%) of 12 in total daily prefer eating salad with different vegetables, but 33% with four people responded that candy is a type of food that stays in your intake daily, like excessive consumption of pasta, with five to 42% of respondents included before any other food.

Despite owning some technology in Táchira and having the support from small places like the universities to raise a significant advance in heart disease are still inadequate, which in many cases provide a life expectancy is on a scale, counting on one hand with economic and material resources, and other medical equipment.

Somehow the medical development will thrive, especially in cases that would not only have special equipment to diagnose, but also for surgical operations, and will treat patients, while the tachirense should be educated to lead a balanced diet combined with exercise and proper lifestyle, pregnant women, children, men and seniors.

The Táchira not prepared for an earthquake

Melissa Gomez Di Tomaso. CI 17,930,105

earthquakes has existed n long before the appearance of the s are human, these movements also known as earthquakes, are releases of energy caused by the collision of tectonic plates.

Venezuela has experienced serious disasters in terms of earthquakes, recalling the strongest case in New Toledo, which is now known as Cumana, in 1530. Which was recorded with an intensity of 7.3 on the Richter scale, and IX to X on the Mercalli scale, which means that was considered as dilapidated to fatal. This earthquake originated a tsunami with waves up to seven meters high, and is listed as the first tsunami in Latin America.

Other earthquakes have left their mark in the country, as well known as Cuatricentenario earthquake of Caracas, which is listed as the fifth most intense quake registered in Venezuela, but is remembered for having occurred in the celebration of 400 years of the city, leaving behind more than 230 dead and 2000 injured, approximately.

Táchira has also undergone important movements, the strongest recorded was that of Santa Cruz de Mora, which took place on April 28, 1984, this was the epicenter Merida state, but affect many areas of the Táchira and is considered as the strongest, with an intensity of 7.3 on the Richter scale.

The most significant is perhaps the tachirenses Lobatera earthquake, as a result of this community is created, today part of Michelena, occurred on 26 February 1849, and recorded a 7 MM in the scale of Mercalli.


"Earthquakes are cyclical, at any time is expected to return a strong movement to Táchira" explains Juan Carlos Osorio, who is part of the planning division and risk management of Civil Protection of Táchira, so it is very important that people are prepared. An earthquake can not predict or anticipate exactly, but if you can educate people to know how to react and what to do before, during and after the earthquake to avoid leaving injured, goes on to explain Osorio.

Civil Protection in Tachira is not only the rescue efforts during a disaster such as an earthquake, but at this time made speeches on education, planning and operations to prepare community because, as explained Armando Delgado, also a member of the planning division and risk management of Táchira Civil Protection, the state is in a seismic zone number four, because it affects Boconó failure preceded Sucre, Caracas and Miranda, Trujillo and Merida.

Earthquakes are unpredictable, continue to explain the two members of Civil Protection, so the institution is working "27 hours a day, 8 days a week" in order to have a maximum response time of 10 minutes after any disaster. It should be noted that what causes damage and injury during an earthquake are misplaced objects or unsecured, any ornament that more than five feet above the ground and not attached to the wall is a danger in case of an earthquake, and against that we we can do nothing, say these members of PC, is something every person should in their own home.

This institution is giving talks in the communities they wish, anyone interested in applying information can go directly to their facility located off the arena and make the chat application in your school, community college or company.

Civil Protection has a seismograph, which records earthquakes of San Cristobal, this is constantly searching movements, since the city is in constant motion through the discharge of energy, human beings do not perceive these movements that are milder and less than 3 points on the Richter scale.

For its part, the firefighters of San Cristóbal municipality have also carried out educational work regarding seismic concerns matter. Not only giving lectures in different institutions who want it, but carrying out mock earthquakes, creating evacuation plans for people to know exactly where to go and how.

José Elias Varela, assistant sergeant training and technology department of professional Fire Department said that any institution or company, public or private, can go directly to the headquarters of the firefighters of San Cristobal and request a chat at no charge a qualified group organized the event and approximately 20 days after completion of the lecture will be held the drill. It tells the story of a mall of more than 400 employees conducted the drill, no audience, and within 4 minutes had emptied the entire installation, which leads to this sergeant to conclude that the talks are really coming to the public.

The main objective of these activities, Varela goes on to explain, is that people who receive the transmitted information in their homes or communities who become teachers in their environments, these conversations enable people to enable them knowledge to other places. With this in mind, Sergeant Varela organized for this October 24th a talk at the virtual classroom for 45 municipal police officers firefighters, delivered by Ben Quintero, FUNVISIS officer, to train instructors in the area seismology that can train others.

"The Táchira not prepared for an earthquake, but we are starting up now, as companies and institutions have been more interested in this issue," says Varela.

On the other hand, Professor Hector Maldonado, a professor at the Universidad de Los Andes (ULA) core Táchira, who is line of research themes of geography, environment, health and society, says ULA that is not even close to being prepared for an earthquake.

The ULA Force not doing enough to teach students about these issues of environment, says Maldonado, there is only one chair, which is a program of environment, health and society, which is seen as optional in the 5th year of Social Communication and sometimes students do not attend, Maldonado believes that the problem is the lack of interest of society in meeting these issues.

Another important point of the ULA, goes on to explain, is the danger of the infrastructure, there is no adequate emergency exits, but until this year that were built ramps for both buildings, formerly the dining room was maintained with a single door open, and could have more than 200 students inside, which would no way out at the time of an emergency.

The authorities of both the ULA and Venezuela, do not take preventive measures, waiting for disasters to occur to act on solutions and not have policies appropriate education for society, says the professor of the ULA.

The theme of the earthquakes in Tachira is very important, since it is something that can happen at any time, and people should be properly informed and educated on how to must act before, during and after an earthquake, Tachira are not prepared to act in an emergency of this kind, experts say, Civil Protection, Fire and educators focused on this area.
