Am descoperit în urmă cu câtva timp teoria profesorului Goleman despre Inteligența Emoțională. Ne-am propus mereu să abordăm cu obiectivitate, inteligență și, adesea, chiar cu claritate problemele care ne înconjoară, dar la începutul anilor 2000 apare o nouă teorie. "Marea revoluție a anilor 2000 constă în revanșa sentimentelor asupra inteligenței", spune autorul ei, profesorul Daniel Goleman, psiholog și jurnalist renumit, care în luna septembrie a acestui an va fi prezent la București. Cu toate acestea, dihotomia introdusă între intelect și emoție pare a fi la fel de neproductivă ca și considerarea priorității unuia sau celuilalt dintre factori în dezvoltarea personalității individuale. Plecând de la un citat din Antoine de Saint Exupery: „Bine nu poți vedea decât cu sufletul; ceea ce este esențial este invizibil pentru ochi”, profesorul Goleman construiește o teorie conform căreia inteligența emoțională este cea care ne asigură succesul în viață sau la locul de muncă. Cu toate acestea, acum, când o nouă generație de absolvenți vor părăsi băncile școlii, nu pot să nu mă întreb dacă aceștia sunt pregătiți, nu numai din punct de vedere profesional dar și pentru a deveni viitorii conducători în domeniul medical. Oare inteligența emoțională le e suficientă sau în acest domeniu e nevoie de mai mult decât atât? Diferența între un medic bun și unul foarte bun, dintre o asistentă medicală bună și una foarte bună sau dintre un balneofizio-kinetoterapeut bun și unul foarte bun este dată cu certitudine atât de nivelul cunoștințelor profesionale cât și de empatia de care dau dovadă în fața pacienților. Dar, nici inteligența nici empatia nu sunt suficiente; e nevoie de caracter, de o structură morală care să armonizeze inteligența și empatia.

Heterotopic ossification is defined as abnormal bone formation in extraskeletal soft tissues where bone normally does not exist, for example muscles tendons, skin and organs. In the last decades a great interest of this pathology was given to the heterotopic ossification what occur after hip replacement operations. This is due to the gradual increase in the frequency of such interventions and repercussions that this condition untreated may have. The two current main prophylactic methods widely used for heterotopic ossification prophylaxis are radiation therapy which can be used either preoperatively or postoperatively and prophylaxis with NSAIDs. Both prophylaxis methods can be effective but they can lead to some adverse effects to the patient.

Forensics is an independent branch of medical practice, its role being to establish and determine the truth through forensic act; it brings a special contribution, on one hand to judicial institutions in determining and establishing judicial truth and on the other hand to medical institutions by reflecting existing problems in public health care. Professional and moral-ethical duty of forensic medical experts is to determine the sequence of medical acts, which they construe in order to determine and formulate a truth. The latter is established by expertise and is useful to solve a presented legal issue.

Nurses participate in patient care by conducting their own specific activities or tasks delegated to them. As nurses participate in sampling for tests, it is important to know the role of bio-chemical, microbiological or haematological tests in establishing the correct diagnosis by physicians A questionnaire was devised in order to assess nursing students’ knowledge of the various aspects related to the influence of external factors on laboratory tests. The questionnaire was administered to 50 first year and another 50 fourth year nursing students. Results were compared to those of tests taken by 50 registered nurses from hospitals of Braşov. A shortened and slightly modified questionnaire was administered to 50 patients undergoing sampling of biological matters for a range of different situations. Comparative presentation of the statistically processed collected data revealed similarities and differences of the responses. The necessity of improving patient information actions emerged, such as to emphasize the importance of preventing various affections and, within this context, of medical tests and factors possibly influencing test results.

Objectives. Placenta praevia, cervical insufficiency and premature rupture of membranes are well known causes of abortion and prematurity. On this background it was added the umbilical cord prolapse that caused acute foetal distress and, in general terms, could generate perinatal mortality. This case analysis can improve the outcome of similar cases in the future. Material and Method Analysis of observation records of a 37 years old pregnant women, admitted to the Clinic Hospital of Obstetrics and Gynaecology of Brasov in 2 episodes, first hospitalization lasting for 8 days and the 2nd hospitalization lasting 91 days, the reason for hospitalization in both admissions were the vaginal bleeding. During the 2nd admission, there were assessed and monitored the foetal and maternal parameters. Results The very strict monitoring and maintenance of pregnancy during hospitalization, with special efforts made by the mother and the health professionals, have resulted in reaching a gestational age that allowed the extraction of a viable foetus at 29 weeks of gestational age and weighing 1360g, with excellent new-born development at the time of hospital discharge and after. Conclusions The pregnancy was finally completed successfully with the birth of a viable foetus at 29 weeks. Careful monitoring of pregnant women with prolonged bed rest, administration of antispasmodics, tocolytics, antibiotics and cortisone resulted in optimal prolonging of the pregnancy that was supplementary complicated by a premature rupture of membranes.

Abortion is one of the most debated subjects of nowadays’ bioethics, being as well one of the most intricate. Abortion is still viewed as a taboo in many countries, especially because the points of view are diametrical opposed, no matter the education level, the socio-economic status, the age, gender or religion of the involved persons are. The absence of consensus and not reaching one makes from abortion, ethically as well as morally, one of the most controversial problems, based on pro and contra arguments and also on the numerous legislation amendments, often influenced by the demographic politics or ideological concepts. Blamed and considered an immoral issue by some people, encouraged and considered moral by others, abortion has been illegal and punished by the law of many institutions or societies or has been sustained and legalized.
