Percepción espacial de futbolistas semiprofesionales en juegos reducidos: Un estudio de caso / Spatial Perception of Semi-Professional Soccer Players in Small Games: A Case of Study

Este estudio pretende: i) describir las exigencias tácticas objetivas (área ocupada por el equipo, AOE) y subjetivas (percepción subjetiva del espacio ocupado, PSEO), ii) identificar la variabilidad inter-sujeto y explorar la relación entre AOE y PSEO, y iii) comparar las exigencias entre defensa y ataque durante la realización de juegos reducidos. Doce jugadores semiprofesionales de fútbol fueron monitoreados mediante dispositivos inerciales WIMU PRO®. Los resultados indican un AOE (ataque=257.6±60.6; defensa=120.3±37.8 m2) y PSEO (ataque=3.5±0.7; defensa=2.7±0.6 a.u.). Se encontraron diferencias entre fase de ataque y defensa en ambas variables (p>0.001; AOE, d=2.72; PSEO, d=1.23) y una alta relación entre ambos indicadores (r=0.92). En conclusión, las variables AEO y PSEO discriminaron el efecto de la fase de juego y el día de entrenamiento. Son necesarias futuras investigaciones con un mayor tamaño muestral para confirmar la validez de la PSEO. (AU)

This study aims to: i) describe the objective tactical demands (surface area occupied by team, AOE) and subjective (spatial perception of occupied area, PSEO), ii) identify the inter-subjects variability and the relationship between AOE and PSEO iii) to compare the demands between offensive and defensive phases during small-sided games. Twelve semi-professional football players were tracked using WIMU PRO®. The results indicated an AOE (attack=257.6±60.6; defense=120.3±37.8 m2) and PSEO (attack=3.5±0.7; 2.7±0.6 a.u.). Differences were found between attack and defense phase in both variables (p>0.001; AOE, d=2.72; PSEO, d=1.23) and high relationship between both indicators (r=0.92). In conclusion, the variables AEO and PSEO discriminated the effect of the game phase and the training day. Future research with a larger sample size is necessary to confirm the validity of the PSEO.

[Complex implantation of an automatic defibrillator-cardioverter through a left superior vena cava]. / Implantación compleja de desfibrilador-cardioversor automático a través de una vena cava superior izquierda.

We describe the case of a 19-year-old girl with a left superior vena cava and a surgically corrected complete atrioventricular canal defect. After an inhospital sudden death an automatic defibrillator-cardioverter was implanted through her left superior vena cava. During the postoperative course, multiple inappropriate discharges caused by myopotential oversensing indicated the relocation of the electrode and, finally, insertion of two epicardial leads by a left submammarian thoracotomy approach, produced an optimal result.
