ABSTRACT

Xenodiagnosis of Leishmania infection in hares (Lepus granatensis) from a focus of human leishmaniasis in Fuenlabrada at southwestern Madrid region (Spain) proved that they are infective to Phlebotomus perniciosus. Molecular characterization of isolates obtained from sand flies infected after xenodiagnosis demonstrates that hares were infected by Leishmania infantum. This is the first evidence of the transmission of L. infantum from hares to sand flies. Moreover the results confirm the role that these animals can play as wild reservoirs of leishmaniasis for the recent outbreak of visceral leishmaniasis in Madrid.

ABSTRACT

En el nuevo programa de la especialidad de Medicina Familiar y Comunitaria (MFyC) se incluye un periodo de rotación en formato de guardias en servicios de urgencias de atención primaria y de emergencias. Este periodo varía entre el 25% de las guardias de los residentes de primer año y el 75% de los de cuarto año. En este sentido en la Comunidad de Madrid toda la asistencia de urgencias y emergencias es competencia del Servicio de Urgencia Médica de Madrid SUMMA112, por lo que este Servicio ha puesto en marcha un programa específico para dar cabida a estos residentes, lo cual resulta novedoso para los Servicios de Emergencias Médicas en general al carecer en España, a día de hoy, de una especialidad específica de Medicina de Urgencias y Emergencias. Se ha creado una unidad docente de MFyC con coordinador, tutores y comisión asesora. Se ha redactado un programa formativo del SUMMA112 que se extrae del programa formativo de la comisión nacional de la especialidad de MFyC. Pero, además, se ha ampliado con algunas competencias muy específicas de los servicios de emergencias que no venían recogidas en el documento anterior. Asimismo, se ha elaborado un plan sobre la metodología docente a aplicar y un plan evaluativo global para que todos los tutores lleven una línea educativa similar. El objetivo de este artículo es explicar estas mejoras, puesto que puede constituir un buen punto de partida para cuando se apruebe la especialidad de Medicina de Urgencias y Emergencias en España (AU)


The new residency training program in family and community medicine requires a rotation responding to calls received by primary care and emergency services. The intensity of these rotations ranges from 25% of calls for first-year residents to 75% for fourth-year trainees. All emergencies in the Spanish autonomous community of Madrid are handled by the SUMMA112 emergency medical service, which has developed and launched a program specifically for these residents. The program is new to Spain, where until now no specialty training in emergency medicine has been offered. The developers created an educational unit with a coordinator, instructors in family and community medicine, and an organizing committee. The SUMMA112 syllabus is compatible with the training program of the Spanish national board for the specialty of family and community medicine, although additional competencies that are highly specific to emergency health services have been incorporated. Teaching and assessment methods have also been planned so that instructors will take a similar educational approach. This article explains these improvements to the syllabus so that the description can serve as a starting point once the specialty in emergency medicine is approved in Spain (AU)
