Resumo A Rede de Cuidado à Pessoa com Deficiência (RCPD) propõe a ampliação do acesso e qualificação da atenção à saúde das pessoas com deficiência (PcD) com participação da atenção básica (AB). O objetivo deste estudo foi estimar a associação entre o modelo de organização da AB e as práticas de saúde voltadas às PcD nesse nível de atenção. Estudo transversal com 1.377 profissionais de nível superior da AB em oito estados brasileiros, recorte da pesquisa REDECIN-BRASIL. Foi realizada uma regressão logística para estimar a associação entre os modelos AB tradicional e Estratégia de Saúde da Família (ESF) e a frequência das práticas voltadas às PcD. O modelo AB tradicional apresentou associação positiva e estatisticamente significante com menor frequência de práticas voltadas à PcD na AB, em comparação com o modelo da ESF, com ajuste da regressão para o conhecimento sobre a RCPD. Acompanhamento pré-natal, atendimento domiciliar e educação em saúde são práticas mais frequentes no modelo ESF, porém, criação de linhas de cuidado, protocolos clínicos, ações intersetoriais e articulação com recursos comunitários ainda são desafios para ambos os modelos.

Abstract The scope of the Care Network for People with Disabilities in Brazil is to enhance access to, and improve health care for, people with disabilities (PwD) with the participation of primary health care (PHC). The objective of this study was to estimate the association between the PHC organization model and health practices aimed at PwD at this level of care. It involved a cross-sectional study with 1,377 qualified PHC professionals in 8 Brazilian states, part of the REDECIN-BRASIL survey. Logistic regression was performed to estimate the association between the PHC model and the Family Health Strategy (FHS) Model and the frequency of care aimed at PwDs. The Traditional PHC Model revealed a positive and statistically significant association with a lower frequency of practices aimed at PwD in PHC, compared to the FHS model, with regression adjustment for knowledge about the care network for PwD. Prenatal care, home care and health education are more frequent practices in the FHS model, however, creating lines of care, clinical protocols, intersectoral actions and articulation with community resources are still challenges for both models.

Resumen La Red de Atención a Personas con Discapacidad (RCPD) propone ampliar el acceso y la calificación de la atención en salud para personas con discapacidad (PcD) con la participación de la atención primaria (AP). Este estudio tuvo como objetivo estimar la asociación entre el modelo de organización de AP y las prácticas de salud dirigidas a las personas con discapacidad en este nivel de atención. Estudio transversal con 1.377 profesionales de AP de educación superior en ocho estados brasileños, parte de la encuesta REDECIN-BRASIL. Se realizó una regresión logística para estimar la asociación entre el Modelo AP tradicional y la ESF y la frecuencia de prácticas dirigidas a personas con discapacidad. El modelo AP Tradicional presentó asociación positiva y estadísticamente significativa con una menor frecuencia de prácticas dirigidas a PcD en AP, en comparación con el modelo de la Estrategia de Salud Familiar (ESF), con ajuste de regresión por conocimientos sobre RCPD. La atención prenatal, la atención domiciliaria y la educación en salud son prácticas más frecuentes en el modelo ESF. Sin embargo, la creación de líneas de atención, protocolos clínicos, acciones intersectoriales y la articulación con recursos comunitarios aún son desafíos para ambos modelos.

Resumo O artigo investigou concepções de deficiência de 30 profissionais em formação ou em exercício, de 14 profissões da saúde, por meio de entrevistas individuais. Foram elaboradas, por um comitê de especialistas, 34 afirmativas representativas de perspectivas religiosa/moral, médica, social e afirmativa da deficiência. Os entrevistados justificaram seu posicionamento diante de cada afirmativa, revelando a coexistência de compreensões referentes tanto às perspectivas médicas quanto sociais da deficiência. Foi frequente o argumento de que impedimentos corporais são determinantes de desigualdades sociais e que práticas de saúde devem buscar a normalização do indivíduo, e também apontada a necessidade de mudança social para remoção de barreiras, inclusão e garantia de direitos. Emergiram, em poucas justificativas, críticas a ideologias individualizantes e processos sociais produtores de desigualdade. Foram frequentes as interpretações morais e/ou religiosas. A compreensão da deficiência como fenômeno complexo e multidimensional permanece limitada, revelando a necessidade de atenção à formação profissional.

Abstract This study aimed to examine the conceptions of disability among 30 professionals in training or practice, representing 14 distinct health professions, through individual interviews. A committee of experts developed thirty-four representative statements encompassing religious-moral, medical, social, and affirmative perspectives on disability. The participants provided justifications for their positions on each statement, unveiling a coexistence of understandings that encompassed both medical and social perspectives on disability. A recurring argument emphasized bodily impairments as the origin of social inequalities, advocating for health practices that aim to normalize individuals. Simultaneously, the need for societal transformation to dismantle barriers, foster inclusion, and ensure rights was also acknowledged. Some justifications critically addressed ideologies that individualize disability and social processes that contribute to inequality. Moral and/or religious interpretations were frequently used by the participants. However, the study highlighted the limited comprehension of disability as a complex and multidimensional phenomenon, indicating a pressing need for enhanced attention to professional training in this area.

Abstract: Disability is currently a significant topic within the field of education. Exploring the perspectives of those responsible for training future teachers and fostering inclusion in higher education is increasingly important. This study aimed to analyze the perceptions and attitudes of faculty members in the Special Education Teaching program at a private university in Chile toward individuals with disabilities. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 12 faculty members, and content analysis was carried out using the qualitative software NVivo 12. The main findings indicate that faculty members have a positive perception of and attitude toward disability. They agree on respecting the fundamental rights of individuals as typical citizens, recognize that a person's abilities are not inherently limited by their disability, and associate necessary support with functional ecological approaches. Consequently, teacher educators may be contributing positively to the mindset of future teachers. This study provides valuable insights into faculty perspectives in higher education from an inclusive lens

RESUMEN El síndrome de Noonan es una enfermedad congénita, de particular interés para el anestesiólogo por ser considerado probable vía aérea difícil.Se presentó un paciente masculino de 13 años con antecedentes patológicos personales de síndrome de Noonan genotipo PTPN11, hipotiroidismo, discapacidad intelectual ligeraque acudió a Cuerpo de Guardia de Cirugía por presentar dolor abdominal de 16 horas de evolución. Fue diagnosticado con apendicitis aguda y se anunció para apendicectomía de urgencia.La presencia del síndrome de Noonan en el paciente requirió un enfoque anestésico personalizado para manejar las posibles complicaciones transoperatorias. La planificación preoperatoria meticulosa, la elección de la secuencia rápida para la inducción anestésica y la monitorización rigurosa fueron clave para el éxito de la cirugía.

RESUMO A síndrome de Noonan é uma doença congênita causada por uma mutação autossômica dominante. Essa síndrome é de particular interesse para o anestesiologista por ser considerada uma provável via aérea difícil. Paciente do sexo masculino, 13 anos, apresentou história patológica pessoal de síndrome de Noonan, genótipo PTPN11, hipotireoidismo e deficiência intelectual leve, que compareceu ao Corpo de Guardas Cirúrgicos devido a dor abdominal com duração de 16 horas. Ele foi diagnosticado com apendicite aguda e foi agendado para apendicectomia de emergência. A presença da síndrome de Noonan no paciente exigiu abordagem anestésica personalizada para manejo de possíveis complicações intraoperatórias. O planejamento pré-operatório meticuloso, a escolha da sequência rápida para indução anestésica e o acompanhamento rigoroso foram fundamentais para o sucesso da cirurgia.

ABSTRACT Noonan syndrome is a congenital of particular interest to the anesthesiologist because it is considered a probable difficult airway. A 13-year-old male patient was presented with a personal pathological history of Noonan syndrome genotype PTPN11, hypothyroidism, mild intellectual disability who attended the Surgical Guard Corps due to abdominal pain of 16 hours duration. He was diagnosed with acute appendicitis and was scheduled for emergency appendectomy. The presence of Noonan syndrome in the patient required a personalized anesthetic approach to manage potential intraoperative complications. Meticulous preoperative planning, the choice of rapid sequence for anesthetic induction, and rigorous monitoring were key to the success of the surgery.

Abstract: This study analyzes the experiences of 17 Colombian primary education teachers in caring for students with disabilities, registered in 17 educational institutions in 11 municipalities between 2018 and 2022. Through a narrative design and a questionnaire with open-ended questions, the interactions of these teachers with the educational environment were explored. Twelve psychological and thirteen pedagogical factors were identified, and their impact was examined depending on the types of disabilities and the specific characteristics of the students and educational contexts. The results reveal high variability and subjectivity in these factors, which can both favor and hinder inclusive educational practices. Additionally, the study examines the Individual Plan for Reasonable Adjustments, highlighting significant deficiencies in its implementation and resistance from some school sectors. This underscores challenges in adopting the inclusive education model promoted by the Colombian State. This analysis provides valuable insights for the continuous improvement of inclusive practices in the Colombian educational system

Resumen En 2017 se expidió en Colombia el decreto 1421, según el cual todas las escuelas del país debían acoger estudiantes con discapacidad y ofrecerles oportunidades de calidad para su ingreso, permanencia y egreso. El Ministerio de Educación dio un plazo de cinco años, contados a partir de su aprobación, para que esta política se implementara en todo el territorio nacional. El objetivo de esta investigación es caracterizar las prácticas pedagógicas, los conocimientos y las condiciones institucionales (de tipo pedagógico-administrativo), en las que labora una muestra de docentes colombianos, seis años después de expedido el decreto. Para ello, se utilizó un diseño cuantitativo no experimental transeccional y la aplicación de una escala a 249 maestros y maestras de distintos niveles educativos. Con base en los hallazgos obtenidos, puede concluirse que hay un cambio positivo en las prácticas pedagógicas y los conocimientos de aquellos docentes que cuentan con formación en inclusión y que laboran en colegios que acogen alumnado con estas trayectorias de vida. Aun así, las condiciones institucionales del profesorado encuestado todavía no responden a proyectos inclusivos. Estos resultados se discuten a la luz de los retos que enfrenta el sistema educativo colombiano en pro de atender alumnado con discapacidad.

Abstract In 2017, Decree 1421 was issued in Colombia, according to which all schools in the country were to welcome students with disabilities and offer them quality opportunities for their entry, permanence and graduation. The Ministry of Education (MEN, 2017a) gave a deadline of five years for this policy to be implemented in the national territory, counted from its approval. The objective of this research is to characterize the pedagogical practices, knowledge and institutional conditions (pedagogical and administrative type) in which a sample of Colombian teachers work, six years after the decree was issued. For this purpose, a transectional non-experimental quantitative design was used and a scale was applied to 249 teachers of early childhood education, elementary school, junior high school and vocational middle school. Based on the findings obtained, it can be concluded that there is a positive change in the pedagogical practices and knowledge of those teachers who have training in inclusion and who work in private schools that receive students with these life trajectories. Even so, the institutional conditions of the teachers surveyed still do not respond to inclusive institutional projects. Since, at the time of writing this paper, we did not find other similar studies in the country, these results are discussed in the light of international research on the subject and in the framework of national policy, and allow extrapolating the challenges faced by the Colombian educational system in welcoming students with disabilities.

ABSTRACT In recent years, the change in the design of video games has become evident, one of them is accessibility for people with different disabilities, despite the laws, which are very limited, there are no standards that require companies, industries and producers from different sectors implement this resource in their projects. From this research, the objective is to investigate the importance that these inclusion games comply with the response to stimuli provided by the industry, in this field, and that the support that the country is giving to this need to be felt is also felt. this visually impaired population. Based on the mixed research methodology, different sources are investigated in order to demonstrate how necessary it is that there are models of inclusion in video games, both entertainment and educational (serious), thus reaching an identity model that. The lack of laws and resources that promote this industry is evidenced. The project made it possible to describe the main strategies and resources that have been proposed and/or implemented in terms of accessibility for people with visual disabilities in Colombia, investigating and comparing the information obtained from the state of the art, and in this way conclude with the impact of these development methods, in the visually impaired population. An important impact has been the technological evolution that other countries have managed to develop for this type of population. As a conclusion, a disparity was found in the development of this project, which is precisely the little accessibility that people with visual disabilities have to video games in Colombia, because beyond the interaction that exists with some, much more access is required. And above all more investment and enactment of laws that support this resource. Using the mixed research methodology, different sources are investigated in order to demonstrate how necessary it is that there are models of inclusion in video games, both entertainment and educational (serious), thus reaching an identity pattern that gives as shows the lack of laws and resources that promote this industry. From this type of research, it was concluded that the lack of resources has been a legible mark that passes through these industries that have the panorama quite compromised by the demands of the market, but that due to this lack of economic resources they cannot reach the levels of implementation. to its mission and vision. Observing what was said above, it becomes complex to be able to carry out a research that clearly defines the inclusion processes for this type of people with said disability in Colombia. Each model of each industry is defined in a different way, since not all of them have this offer in their services. Common to this type of population. What, then, allowed us to conclude this research, finding social differences in each production of a video game? The project allowed us to describe the main strategies that have been proposed and/or implemented in terms of accessibility for people with visual disabilities in Colombia, investigating and comparing the information obtained from the state of the art, as mentioned above. Thus, then, different responses were found to this inclusion, not only in entertainment games but also in educational ones, which in the end are also very important in the classroom, because not only should one think about the distraction game, but also about the playful nature of teaching, thus helping teachers in the development of their classes. In this way, we conclude with the impact of these development methods on the visually impaired population. Another important point that could be evidenced is the evolution of technology, which has brought haptic systems, immersive and dynamic audio, as well as braille itself in digital systems, this, of course, has allowed progress towards much more logical and dynamic resources, but they continue to be limited precisely because they cannot be implemented correctly, due to their high purchasing value. We must think not of people who suffer from visual disabilities, but rather we must think of all social strata with this type of disability who can, with their resources, access this type of technology. Each part of the intervention exercise with state and private companies led to results that concluded in the population with visual disabilities that does not have the possibility of accessing this exercise of inclusion, and beyond the common interest in popularizing these video games, the limitation of certain sectors is seen that do not find in this undertaking a great industry, since the majority assures that it is more lucrative to invest in video games for people without no limitation or disability than investing in this other type of video game In conclusion, the disabled population in Colombia is 3,134,037; this number is very high if we also consider the rural populations that live without any type of resource or technological reach; Due to their socioeconomic condition and location, they are people who have a deterioration in services, then what is the extent of the disabled population in these areas that do not have the support and resources to improve their quality of life? It is almost null, there is no possibility that in the most vulnerable places and far from the reach of the government, inclusion exercises will be carried out with the visually disabled population, because simply in the last population census that was carried out in Colombia in 2018, more than 50% of the population They do not access the Internet, this added to governments that waste state money, it could be said that the level exceeds that percentage. If so, it is very possible that the reach of this population to these technological resources is very bad. A lot of economic investment is required on the part of the state, and for the designers of these technologies to expand to cover their creative enterprises, to the entire population, without the right to exclusion. For this reason, in this project a disparity is evident, which is precisely the little accessibility that people with visual disabilities have to video games in Colombia, not only from entertainment, but from their spaces in the classroom, which is what many demands. academics for their models and resources to work with this population, because beyond the interaction that exists with some (very few), much more access is still required and above all more investment and enactment of laws that support said resource.

Abstract This article presents the comprehensive design and evaluation of a digital storytelling system tailored for Latin American children aged 4 to 6, leveraging generative artificial intelligence. Tests were conducted to assess the system’s functionality, content diversity, generation times, and voice quality, including intonation, speed, and pronunciation. The results substantiate the system’s operational efficacy and user-friendly interface. The stories generated demostrate substantial diversity, as indicated by Jaccard indices calculations, which reveal a maximum value of 0.2 derived from evaluating 30 distinct stories. As expected, there was a proportional increase in story generation times relative to their length. ’Onyx’ from OpenAI’s text-to-speech (TTS) was identified as the most appropriate voice for storytelling. Nonetheless, pronunciation inaccuracies were observed across all tested TTS model voices. The analysis demonstrated that the system generates a variety of stories that foster value formation in Spanish-speaking children, thereby promoting the importance of including individuals with disabilities. Notably, all content within the stories was found to be suitable for children, with no inappropriate material detected in any of the narratives.

Resumen En este artículo se presenta el diseño completo y la evaluación de un sistema cuentacuentos digital destinado a niños de entre 4 y 6 años en Latinoamérica. Este sistema está basado en inteligencia artificial generativa. Se realizaron pruebas que abarcaron el funcionamiento del sistema, la diversidad de contenidos, los tiempos de generación, la evaluación de voz, entonación, velocidad y calidad de pronunciación. Los resultados confirman que el sistema funciona correctamente y es intuitivo. Las historias generadas muestran un alto grado de diversidad, ya que, al calcular los índices de Jaccard, el valor máximo encontrado fue de 0,2 en las evaluaciones de treinta cuentos analizados. Como era de esperarse, los tiempos de generación aumentan conforme se incrementa la longitud de los cuentos. Se identificó que la voz que mejor se adapta para contar los cuentos es Onyx de la TTS de OpenAI. Sin embargo, se observaron errores de pronunciación en todas las voces del modelo TTS. De acuerdo con el análisis realizado, el sistema crea historias diferentes, que promueven valores en los niños de habla hispana, fomentando la importancia de la inclusión de personas con discapacidad. Cabe destacar que en ningúncuento se encontró contenido no apto para niños.

Resumen El objetivo del presente trabajo fue describir algunas características de la función pulmonar de cuatro paranadores con lesión medular de Cali-Colombia. Se incluyeron cuatro deportistas de iniciación deportiva de para-natación con lesión medular de cualquier nivel neurológico, quienes firmaron el consentimiento informado. Se tomaron datos sociodemográficos, clínicos, deportivos, antropométricos, independencia funcional y función pulmonar mediante espirometría y movilidad torácica mediante la cirtometría. Los resultados evidencian cuatro paranadores entre 26 y 42 años, con niveles neurológicos entre T2-T4 y T10-T11. Ninguno de los casos presentó enfermedades respiratorias pre y post lesión, dos de los casos presentaron historial tabáquico. Los casos llevaban entre tres y doce meses practicando el deporte, todos con normopeso según IMC; con dependencia leve según Índice de Barthel. Además, presentaron valores entre 83 % y 93 % del valor predicho en la relación VEF1/CVF. La mejor toma de la movilidad torácica a nivel axilar estuvo entre 1,5 y 5,6 cm y a nivel xifoideo entre 1,5 y 2,5 cm. Se concluye que los sujetos no tuvieron alteraciones en la función pulmonar, que los deportistas con historial tabáquico y nivel de lesión más alto presentaron disminución en la movilidad torácica, el entrenamiento en agua puede otorgar beneficios a nivel pulmonar.

Abstract The aim of this study was to describe some characteristics of pulmonary function in four para-swimmers with spinal cord injury from Cali-Colombia. Four paraswimmers with spinal cord injury of any neurological level who signed the informed consent form were included. Sociodemographic, clinical, athletic, anthropometric, functional independence and, pulmonary function by spirometry and thoracic mobility by cirtometry data were collected. The results show four patients between 26 and 42 years old, with neurological levels between T2-T4 and T10-T11. None of the cases had a history of respiratory diseases before or after the injury, two of the cases had a history of smoking. The cases had been practicing the sport for between three and twelve months, all with normal weight according to BMI; with mild dependence according to the Barthel Index. In addition, they presented FEV1/FVC values between 83 % and 93 % of predicted value. The best thoracic mobility was between 1.5 and 5.6 cm at the axillary level, and between 1.5 and 2.5 cm at the xiphoid level. It is concluded that the subjects had no changes in pulmonary function, that the athletes with a history of smoking and a higher level of injury presented a decrease in thoracic mobility, and that training in water can provide benefits at the pulmonary level.

ABSTRACT This article aims to elucidate the legal situation of the incarcerated population with disabilities in Peru. To achieve this, a study is conducted on individuals with disabilities within the Peruvian penal reality, followed by an analysis of the corresponding legal framework and local progress and challenges regarding their rights. Proposed improvements to the prison system aim to enhance accessibility, availability, acceptability, and inclusion in correctional facilities. These enhancements involve treating vulnerability with humane considerations, replacing the traditional rehabilitative policy as the primary purpose of punishment. Additionally, the establishment of penal execution courts is proposed for processing penitentiary benefits. A qualitative methodology with a documentary design and descriptive scope is employed. As a key finding, given the extreme vulnerability of the incarcerated population with disabilities in Peru, there is a highlighted need to imbue the prison sentence with distributive political foundations, aligning with international Human Rights standards prioritizing the reduction of structural barriers. In this regard, the adoption of a humane treatment policy and the implementation of penal execution courts are deemed viable measures to reduce the vulnerability of inmates with disabilities and promote the respect of their fundamental rights.

RESUMEN En este artículo se busca explicar la situación jurídica de la población penitenciaria con discapacidad en el Perú. Para ello, se realiza un estudio sobre las personas con discapacidad dentro de la realidad penitenciaria peruana, seguido por el análisis del marco jurídico respectivo, así como los avances y desafíos locales de sus derechos. Se propone mejoras al sistema penitenciario en aras de brindar una mayor accesibilidad, disponibilidad, aceptabilidad e inclusión en los establecimientos carcelarios. Estas mejoras consisten en el trato humano de la vulnerabilidad en reemplazo de la política resocializadora tradicional en tanto finalidad de la pena y la instauración de juzgados de ejecución penal para el procesamiento de los beneficios penitenciarios. Se emplea una metodología cualitativa con diseño documental y alcance descriptivo. Por último, como principales hallazgos, dada la extrema vulnerabilidad en que vive la población penitenciaria con discapacidad en el Perú, se destaca la necesidad de dotar a la pena de prisión de fundamentos políticos distributivos, facilitando así la alineación con estándares internacionales de derechos humanos que prioricen la reducción de barreras estructurales. En este respecto, es viable la adopción de la política del trato humano y la implementación de juzgados de ejecución penal con la finalidad de reducir la vulnerabilidad de los reclusos con discapacidad y promover el respeto de sus derechos fundamentales.
