ABSTRACT
The Respiratory Nursing and Physiotherapy Section of the Spanish Society of Pneumology and Thoracic Surgery, established as a working group more than 19 years ago, has been characterized by a high degree of involvement and collaboration with all the research studies requiring nursing and physiotherapy techniques. However, publication of articles by this collective is scarce compared with that of the rest of the Society and the characteristics, attitudes and limitations of this section pose an obstacle to increasing the number of its publications. This article aims to explain some of the possible reasons that could have given rise to this situation. The new tendencies and the attitude of this collective and the rest of the Society are encouraging and suggest that the work of the Respiratory Nursing and Physiotherapy Section will be better reflected in the future.

La enfermería y la fisioterapia respiratoria, pertenecientes a SEPAR desde su nacimiento como grupo de trabajohace ya más de 19 años, se han caracterizado por el grado de implicación y de colaboración en todos los trabajosde investigación en los que los cuidados o las técnicas eran imprescindibles. La producción propia deartículos es ciertamente escasa por parte de nuestro colectivo comparada con el resto de la SEPAR. Nuestrascaracterísticas y peculiaridades, las actitudes y limitaciones históricas impiden poder tener una mayor presenciaen nuestra revista. En este artículo trataremos de explicar algunas de las posibles razones y motivosque creemos son los causantes de estas circunstancias.Las nuevas tendencias y la actitud de nuestro colectivo y del resto de la sociedad nos hace tener esperanzas ypensar que esta precariedad en el reflejo de nuestro trabajo se irá modificando en el proceso de cambio(AU)

La single incision laparoscopic surgery (SILS, cirugía laparoscópica a través de incisión única) ha sido recientemente utilizada por cirujanos generales para realizar colecistectomías y reparación de hernias preperitoneales con malla mediante cirugía de minima invasión diminuyendo así el dolor postoperatorio y obteniéndose un resultado más cosmético de la cirugía. Describimos los primeros casos de cirugía torácica videoasistida en neumotórax espontáneos utilizando el sistema SILS. No hay reportes previos del uso del SILS en cirugía torácica videoasistida para el neumotórax espontáneo. Este sistema además de permitirnos obtener un resultado quirúrgico más cosmético, también disminuye la estancia media postoperatoria y la necesidad de analgésicos a fin de reducir el dolor postoperatorio(AU)
Single Incision Laparoscopic Surgery (SILS) has recently been used by general surgeons to perform cholecystectomies and pre-peritoneal hernia repairs with mesh using minimally invasive surgery, thus decreasing post-operative pain and a more cosmetic result of the surgery being obtained. We describe the first cases of video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) in spontaneous pneumothorax using the SILS system. There are no previous reports on the use of the SILS system in VATS for spontaneous pneumothorax. This system also allows us to obtain a more cosmetic surgical result, as well as decreasing the mean post-operative hospital stay and the need for analgesics to improve the post-operative pain(AU)

As nurses and physiotherapists, we truly wish that our work could be rewarded with sufficient time, support, training and recognition so that it could be reflected in studies, publications and research. It does not seem right and it is unjust that the care profession framed within a multidisciplinary need and reality, with the largest number of professionals and hours of health care, does not have the recognition of its space. Too much blame. We need that space to continue growing and in particular to improve the quality of life or our population. Stop looking back and consolidate ourselves in the new possibilities that are being proposed to us without being dragged down by the autocracy of the market. Perhaps it is time to review and give each thing its label. Lit is our situation and to many of us it does not motivate us, or allow us to flow, but something is changing and change is the only thing that is permanent.

En verdad, las enfermeras y los fisioterapeutas desearíamos que nuestro trabajo pudiera ser recompensadocon suficiente tiempo, apoyo, formación y reconocimiento para que se pudiera ver reflejado en estudios,publicaciones e investigación.No parece real y es injusto que la profesión de cuidar, enmarcada en una necesidad y realidad multidisciplinaria,con el mayor número de profesionales y de horas de asistencia, no tenga el reconocimiento de suespacio. Culpables, hay demasiados.Necesitamos ese espacio para seguir creciendo y sobre todo para mejorar la calidad de vida de los ciudadanos.Dejar de mirar atrás y afianzarnos en las nuevas posibilidades que se nos proponen sin arrastrarnospor la autocracia del mercado.Quizás sea tiempo de repasar y ponerle a cada cosa su calificativo; es nuestra situación y a muchos de nosotrosno nos motiva, ni nos deja fluir, pero algo está cambiando y es lo único permanente, el cambio(AU)
