Contribution of physical activity in the life of a student at Medicine Faculty


Student life activities addressing different concerns, for example, act as a student, a son, a friend, as known, and boyfriend, as a person, which is why each of them requires time, energy, mood, motivation, dreams, etc.

All this can lead to many diseases if not is being prepared (like a good way to organize time, spend more energy on priority work, having a healthy lifestyle, etc.).. For all before mencionated, I want to emphasize that one of the major factors that overwhelm to the university student is stress, which causes various symptoms such as irritability, fatigue and exhaustion, drowsiness, muscle and visceral pain, headaches, etc.

I can assign a priority and supported by various organizations (including OMS) that one of the most effective methods minoritized stress and improve both the quality of life is that of physical activity.

Physical activity produces significant changes in student life, and these can be simplified in a big word that is to bring happiness, since it allows for reduced stress (and this largely minoritised symptoms it can cause) can generate social ties, helps reduce weight, maintains and improves the muscles, improves self-esteem, creates character, etc. Therefore guide the student to release and canalize all the negative things that can result from academic life, family, staff, etc.. and generate a positive and healthy life.

It is also important to note that the time it gives the physical activity within the curriculum (face time considered in the race) is insignificant, although this time will help greatly in university life, if it could be more time, for example 2 hours a day to week, could generate beneficiantes and very radical changes, which generate as final product a healthy lifestyle.

The Principal function as a health professional.


In the formation as a health professional, the basic concept and more important is the Education and Prevention, and this can be to different levels: individuals, families and the community.

As future health professional, we must have different tools for develop a complete and effective education, futhermore especific, because you could to do a excelent recomend and education about dont smoke, but the really problems of this person was other, as didnt eat unhealthy food, or did more sport, etc.

The Prevention is very important in the health area, because If you dont doing a good education for promote the prevention, you will achieve serious health problems, and this will can result in the death.

For achieve the prevention at the individual level,the health professional could to do: provide information on relevant topics that could cause health risks,through brochures, posters, etc. Furthermore They could to promote that it persons will go to workshops or lectures, or consider to take a healthy lifestyle.

At the Family level, the health professional could to do more education focus to the family, for example promote a healthy lifestyle in this, with balanced diet, more sport, etc. Furthermore all this can to become with a holistic attention.

At the Community level, the health proffesional could to have contact with the community chief for know the needs of this community, and next aplicate lectures, workshops, educational interventions, use the tv or the radio for explain relevant information, etc.

The midwife can to educate for promote the prevention through:
- the Prenatal Control (in varied topics that require the woman, furthermore the midwife can to strength the previous habits)
- Educational interventions (mainly sexuality, newborn care, etc.)
- etc.

I hope that you read this post.

the benefits and drawbacks as MAN in Obstetrics


Dear all
In this opportunity, I'm goingt to write a topic as future midwife, will be directly related the topic is: gender problems in obstetrics.

There are different careers in the health area from the beginning, the majority or totality of students that started, were women
, for example: nursing, obstetrics; and in other cases, the majority or totality of students that started, were men, for example: medicine.
Actually, this has changed, now we can see the integration of men and women in this career in which its were not usual to find them.

In obstetrics, one of the main drawback is this process of integration to this work. The society and culture aren't prepare for incorporation of men in work
as in the actuality mentality maleness still exists (not that I am a feminist, but claerly noted that psycho-social aggression to the women must be eradicated), and the men in this work is "bad seen".
Another drawback is that as men, We c ouldn't to live the same physiological processes that the women, and because of this, we can't fully undestand them and there is less confidence.
The benefits that I can emphasize as future midwife, is that I will try to change the actual "basic mentality", for other that tries to overcome such a gender boundaries. In addition, a benefit as man, is that as we didn't live intimately the women processes, we can to perform a attetion more delicate.


I hope that share and undestand my opinion =)

My favourite technology object: The Clock.



Dear all, In this oportunity i want to give a little of time for
describe a magnific object: the clock.

The clock is a wonderfull because I can distribute my time and prognosticate,
for example when I have to get up early every day. I find it very useful and I programmed it and it sounds hard: BI BI BI BIP - BI BI BI BIP - BI BI BI BIP!! ,
and let me fully alert, and more importantly, awake. I use it when I have to get up early, when I have to go to college, when I have to get together for some time with a group of workers, friends or my girlfriend, when I will sleep a day in the afternoon,
and I want to wake up yet later (eg.: sleeping between 3 pm to 8pm, I did it sometimes to study).

I have much affection for my clock, because my brother gave me it.
It has: time, radio and alarm, further it is electric object, can run on batteries.

I like this because I can distribute my time, and giving it to things as:
go for a walk, go out and stay with my girlfriend, watching tv, listening to music, reading text, etc., ie, things that allow me to "disconnect" of life as a student.

If you ask me: Can you imagine life without it?, Definitely answer: yes, I CAN, because I could be with greater freedom and and not a structured life, BUT as a consecuence in my life student, I will can induce a big disarray.

I hope that the reading has been interesting,

ByE.

Why Obstetrics?


Dear All, in this oportunity i wanted to take a little of space of blog for to talk about why i chosen study obstetrics, and if i'm right in this career.

I chosen a health carrer because the idea of help to other people heal, relieved or making them feel better is very comforting and enriching experience.
First, when i wanted to enter to university, my first option was Medicine, but with the point obtained i could not enter to this. Next, i thought enter to other career, for example: kinesiology, medical thechnology, ocupacional therapy, nursing, odotology, obstetrics.

I discarded nursing because the labour of nurse is always dependent of a doctor, and i hated this. I found that Medical Technology is a labour where they worked a long time in closed and small place, and always analyzing laboratory exam, it is for this that i dicarted this career. Ocupacional therapy have relation with psicology and with rehabilitation of patient, the person rehabilitation is great but the psicology do not like to me. Odontology, i did not see who a career where i could work or where i was fine, i did not feel nothing special for enter to this.


The options were: Kinesiology or Obstetrics. I prefered obstetrics, because I found most important the care of the women and the relation with the newborns and life that coming.
Now, i felt that obstetrics is the right way that i want, because who future health professional and midwive had a lot of job: promoting the health and quality of women life in different periods of their life cycle, undertake preventive, promotive, diagnostic, treatment and rehabilitation. Also concerned to ensure the care of the newborn, by conducting interventions that go beyond the mother-son, and extending to a level that includes family and community. This motivates me to the decision to become an obstetrician, I feel good and happy. The visited to the hospital was a nice experience, this did that I stayed in Obstetrics, because I could see that the obstetrics is not just take out babies. Obstetrics had a wide labour that integrate the mother and son, and the women.

I hope that agree and undertake with this as me =) ,
