technological advances

As the years advance technology is much better in every area, one of the foremost those related to medicine. Small discoveries have led to develop devices that are efficient and are for a good diagnosis of a disease, prevention, its evolution and its treatment. We have the example of X-rays to visualize the status of a bone and from these behaviors and take actions to improve the patient and so there are new technologies to facilitate many processes without being invasive.

One area of medicine is obstetrics is the area that interests me because this study. One of the best track is the ultrasound, this lets you view the embryo implanted in a short time, allowing among many other things to get a timely diagnosis of the weeks of gestation, if it is not known the date of the last menstrual period in this period also permits early to know the site of implantation. And much later in the pregnancy, will show whether the fetus is developing well, your weight, height and time to diagnose if they had a congenital malformation and thus prepare expectant parents and also prepare professionals who attend childbirth to know what treatment to give the newborn. Today, ultrasound is much clearer, and enables the features of the fetus, namely sex. In addition to see how his vital signs. 4D ultrasound, which are the most modern technology allows us to observe different parts of the baby as well as any patient, so that makes the cuts as a CT scan of the body being studied and, subsequently, the device scans Three-dimensional reconstruction. In addition, this new equipment is beneficial to study the physiological motor activity and the fetus. This is clearly beneficial for professionals as it allows to watch and that if a change does not take them by surprise and have the necessary equipment at hand to improve the condition of the newborn or fetus, but this does not mean that other types of scans are not efficient, mainly differ in the quality of the image, where the latter is not exactly the traits of the fetus, but both are good for diagnosis as those mentioned above.

In conclusion I can say that thanks to new technologies have improved the quality of life of people and in particular has played an important role in health, because without undergoing surgery or in the case of midwifery without having to fetus or embryo without touching this and we know it, know how they are working their organs and systems, we can diagnose your weeks of gestation which helps us to know that conduct taken with the mother, allows us to prepare for the time of delivery and also finally gives the mother the option of knowing the sex of their child and the state of him.

YOGA

YOGA

Yoga is a technique that works the mind, body and spirit, is an ancient discipline that was born thousands of years in the East.
Just as people often resort to medicine and psychology to spend your stress this is a new way to heal stress ... is a very effective alternative therapy.
There are different types of yoga such as Hatha Yoga, Kundalini Yoga, Raja Yoga, Tantra Yoga, Yoga Sapta and these differing mainly in theories and practice. There are more static yoga and other yogas that are more dynamic. Other types of yoga will pay more attention to standing postures, breathing others. The type of yoga you want a person depends on the need she has.

Today many doctors recommend practicing yoga when they see that your patient is stressed. It is usually used as an adjunct treatment although there are some who do not believe in the effectiveness that can have this practice.
The benefits to the individual are varied and depend on many factors such as physical and mental state, what type of illness, food, how to take the practice, among others.
This alternative therapy is also useful in pregnant women, we know that does not harm the woman or the baby, but instead provides a safe practice to ensure good health during pregnancy and childbirth.
Some yoga postures are to avoid the usual aches, nausea, constipation, bloating, headaches. Also ensure that the fetus has more free space for growth in the uterus. Other positions are to facilitate a natural birth and make it much easier.

Ell yoga works on the Chakras, which are energy centers that are located in different parts of the body. By acting on these points, it does is bring the area and let the energy flow, flow and creates a balance and these points are stimulated with different postures and meditation.
To do yoga just need comfortable clothing, be barefoot so they also work the muscles of the feet, being in a quiet environment, do not cold or hot, with music (or without music) and if need be Use mats to feel more relaxed to reach the necessary concentration that this practice is intended.

Brain

The presentation by Dr. Maldonado was very interesting because it was around the brain of various animals and how it differs from the human brain. In addition there was myths surrounding this complex structure.
There are many myths surrounding the brain and something caught my eye is the shape and size according to species. For example the human brain is smaller than the dolphin, but no dolphins are more intelligent than man. Something that if you have to recognize is that the dolphin in animal species is very intelligent. Instead the brain of a squirrel in addition to being small is quite complex without a lot of grooves and a very smooth bark.
There is also difference between the brains of men and the brains of woman. Women to perform a complex activity that is used only three sections of the brain and both sides of this. While active man four sections, but on one side of the brain.
Making a comparison between the human brain and a computer if it is valid, because the computer is complex and can perform tasks and store information for a long time, but there are certain things that are unique to the brain and process information that may be delayed minutes while the computer just one second and also the brain is flexible or adapt to situations while the computer is reliable but is rigid.

The presentation made by Dr. Maldonado struck me as very good and that he not only taught a class but how to deliver knowledge was a dynamic and close for us to ask questions related to the topic or answer questions that arose . Also always good to know a little more structure to the surrounding myths and is so complex.
This presentation helped me to understand how men and women work and also to understand that the brain is unique and although there are objects that attempt to assimilate technology is almost impossible.
