Delegate and develop team skills demanded by the sanitary. productivity

-52.2% of the respondents choose the ability to delegate the most valued quality

-many doctors with access to managerial posts must learn to lead “ progress ”

-the website Medicoygestor.com offers a book, free download, with practical advice for health professionals who manage teams

Madrid, 2011-August according to a survey conducted by medicoygestor.com (1) among doctors who develop tasks of management, the most valued qualities among the chiefs are the ability to delegate (52.2%) and provide coaching to develop the rest of the team (47.8%). The most common defects between the heads is also not give support (43.5%), not to recognize the accomplishments (39.1%) and not give freedom to subordinates (39.1%).

Respondents also insist on the need to listen to the team, especially when we incorporate as heads to a new organization. Finally, the management style that respondents considered most appropriate is the participatory and collaborative.

The presence of a leader improves clinical outcomes

Many health professionals who manage teams recognize that they must learn to be good heads “ progress ”. It is not a failure, people management and other skills are not part of the curriculum for the career of medicine and doctors, in addition to his medical work, occupying managerial posts, try to acquire these skills primarily self-taught (2).

In a study published in 2010, Nurok et to the have shown that the presence of a leader at the head of the team can improve climate work and, more importantly, clinical outcomes. Thus, this author argues that the skills reinforce management directives, required interventions on the team to improve the results of the clinical indicators (3).

Developing leaders is not easy to

However, develop leaders in health care is not easy. Among other reasons, by the lack of time and the disconnect between the way in which we see as heads and how see us our team. Also, according to a study conducted by TRACOM (a consultancy specializing in relational styles, coaching and behavioural development) a group of 377 health managers, 55 per cent believed that their chiefs should improve their management skills and 78% believed that their chiefs should improve their interpersonal communication skills (see), in other words, its ability to develop constructive and confidence relations (both inside and outside the Organization) and capacity to motivate others.

Another cause is that business management literature is extensive, but there are not enough materials specifically aimed at health professionals, to develop these concepts in a simple and practical way. Therefore, Medicoygestor.com has published a detailed report of 190 pages, which can be downloaded from this web site.

This document contains some keys to help health professionals to become better managers of people. The book is divided into three sections: you, your team and your organization, each of which contains practical recommendations that can be applied by the reader. It also includes case studies and check-lists for use in a wide variety of contexts.

From the website medicoygestor.com are a series of questions to those who have responsibilities of management on other health professionals. Among others:

– do we have a common goal in the team
-? does have clear functions has each Member of the team?
– what challenges we face as a team?
– What are our strong areas as a team? what our weak points how team?
– we have a defined mechanism to share information and to assess and revise our objectives?
– do?Meet the team objectives and strategic priorities? do you share them? they support them?

IVI experts recommend to avoid multiple pregnancies by complications that lead.

the goal is that the reproductive medicine resembles natural conception, with a pregnancy only.

-twin gestation is 30% in pregnancies by assisted reproduction and 2% in the spontaneous

-El Embryoscope, vitrification and metabolomics, keys to select the best embryo

Valencia, 2011-August Spain, 1 in 6 couples at childbearing age wants to have children and cannot, so it goes to a fertility clinic, where the multiple pregnancy rate is 30% from 1-2% of gemelares pregnancies achieved naturally.

“ After a while trying to achieve pregnancy without success, the majority of patients get a little tired and desanimadas In Vitro fertilization (IVF) for which you do not want to or hear a single embryo transfer want say them two to increase the chances of success and even makes them illusion having twins ”, says Dr. Antonio Requena, medical director of the IVI group.

Many couples are multiple pregnancy as a desired situation, unaware of the danger involved, both for the mother and the newborn. The main problem is the preterm delivery, i.e. before 37 weeks, circumstance that occurs in more than half of such deliveries and that can cause problems of psychomotor development, especially in the large preterm (less than 1,000 grams weight).

In addition, in the medical community are widely known aspects associated with a multiple pregnancy for the mother: threat of premature birth may require rest and even hospitalisation, the need for caesarean section is much more frequent and everything linked to increased complicationssuch as hypertension, polyhydramnios (excessive amniotic fluid), and gestational diabetes, among others.

These are some of the reasons that lead to the specialists of IVI to aim at a healthy son through a single embryo transfer, thus reducing chances of multiple gestation. As claims Dr. Requena, “ this practice does not diminish the chances of pregnancy, especially when it comes to women under 35 years old and with a good prognosis ”.

This is the case of Carlos and Paola that, after several miscarriages and diagnose polycystic ovary syndrome, went to the clinic IVI where underwent in Vitro Fertilization with two embryo transfer. “ After a year of attempts without managing the baby came the concern and frustration, and as I wanted to be a mother I took the risk, despite being informed in IVI’s possible complications entailing a gestation of such ”. Alessandro and Flavio are now a year and his mother recalls that “ was indeed difficult problems that warned me that it could have and indeed had a pregnancy and birth ”.

The current reproductive medicine aims to achieve a healthy child at home, and not two, that is why every effort in the European medical scene routed to humanize the assisted reproduction resembling natural conception. “ Trying to avoid the twin gestation improving techniques to select the best embryo: explore every second of embryo development with the help of the embryoscope (the first film incubator), vitrification of gametes and embryos, and the embryo metabolomic analysis, they are the key to succeed ”, said Antonio Requena.
