RESULTS: Cervical cerclage was performed in 15 cases. Decompressive amniocentesis previously made in 12 cases with 'hourglass bag. "He managed to prolong pregnancies between 0 and 20 weeks (mean ...

Objective: To determine maternal mortality rate tendency at a Peruvian Social Security National Hospital during the 44 years of existence. Design: Epidemiological descriptive retrospective study of maternal deaths registered at our Hospital from 1958 through 2002.

Se presenta una investigación básica con un diseño descriptivo explicativo sobre la deserción estudiantil en la educación superior. Se llevó a cabo en la Escuela Profesional de Física Aplicada de la Universidad Nacional Jorge Basadre Grohmann. Las unidades de estudio fueron los ex - estudiantes que ingresaron en el 2013, 2014 y 2015 y que decidieron abandonar la Escuela en los años 2014, 2015 y 2016.
