Objetivo: Determinar la exactitud (Ex) por la sensibilidad(S), especificidad (E) de un estudio de prueba diagnóstica (PD) por imagen termográfica (IT)  en la granulación de las úlceras diabéticas no infectadas (UDSI)  que recibieron tratamiento  convencional o coadyuvante   en una unidad de pie diabético.Material y métodos: El diseño fue transversal que se realizó con 29 pacientes diabéticos tipo 2   con UDSI comparando la observación directa de una zona de granulación  por IT  como  PD en evaluación respecto a estándar  por estudio anatómico patológico(AP) por medio de una biopsia tipo punch. El estudio obtuvo la autorización del comité de ética de la Facultad de medicina de la Universidad Nacional de Trujillo. Las estadísticas descriptivas se realizaron usando el programa SPSS y las estadísticas analíticas usando EPIDAT.Resultados: Estos fueron realizad...

Objective: To determine the relationship between carbon dioxide gradient/arteriovenous oxygen gradient index and lactate in patients with pneumonia complicated by septic shock in areas delivering care for critically ill or injured patients of the Hospital III EsSalud Chimbote between 2018 and 2019. Materials and methods: A quantitative, observational, correlational, longitudinal trend study. The study population consisted of patients with pneumonia complicated by septic shock who had carbon dioxide gradient/arteriovenous oxygen gradient index and lactate readings. Results: Ninety (90) patients with pneumonia complicated by septic shock participated in the research. The present study showed a robust relationship between gas gradient index and serum lactate when monitoring patients at baseline, 3 hours, 6 hours and 12 hours. Conclusions: There is a relationship between carbon dioxide gradi...

Objetive: Determine the characteristics and level of satisfaction of parents using pediatric teleconsultation during the COVID-19 pandemic, treated at the Víctor Lazarte Echegaray The sample was made up of 273 parents to whom a user satisfaction survey was conducted by telephone, which consists of 15 questions that were answered based on the Thurstone scale. Results: the level of satisfaction was distributed as high (34.1%), medium (55.3%) and low (10.6%). Most of the patients belonged to the age group of 0-4 years (54.9%), male (54.2%) and resided in the province of Trujillo (67.8%). The parents were mainly aged between 30-39 years (45.8%), were female (90.5%) and had a higher level of education (60%). Teleconsultations had chronic diseases as the main reason for consultation (63.4%), lasted >10 minutes (76.9%), and prescriptions were issued in half of the cases (50.2%). Conclusion:...

Infodemia is the information epidemy associated to fear, speculation and rumors, amplified and transmitted rapidly by modern information technologies and that negatively affects society. Its association with the 2019 Coronavirus Disease pandemic is not exclusive, as it had already been described with the Coronavirus-1 Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome pandemic in 2003. This false or misleading information may cause public reluctance widespread adoption of infection control measures promoted by health authorities, and thus delaying essential recomendations. The World Health Organization (WHO), in its eagerness to counteract, has established the WHO Information Network to Epidemics.

Introduction: mothers with newborn children became an easy target of the COVID-19 pandemic, their lives today revolve around avoiding its contagion and spread due to the confinement in which they live. Objective: determine the impact of COVID-19 on the relationship between lifestyle and the bond of mother-newborn attachment in a Hospital in Peru. Methods: an explanatory, descriptive-correlational, cross-sectional design was carried out, with a population of 1020 puerperal women and a sample of 103 puerperal women. The sampling was stratified by the presence or absence of COVID-19 in puerperal women. The variables were lifestyles, described by: practice of physical activity, quality of life, rest and sleep, physical health and social integrity, and bonding mother-newborn. Spearman's correlation, discriminant analysis and Wilcoxon's test were used. Results: in both groups of puerperal wome...
