El objetivo de la presente investigación fue describir a relación entre el síndrome de burnout y el riesgo de trastornos de conducta alimentaria en universitarios de ciencias de la salud de una universidad lambayecana. Esta investigación fue descriptiva con un diseño observacional de corte transversal en universitarios de ciencias de la salud que cursen el penúltimo año de una universidad lambayecana. Se aplicó el cuestionario Eatting Attitudes Test-26 para describir si existía la frecuencia del diagnóstico diagnóstico para TCA y el cuestionario Maslach Burnout Inventory para describir la frecuencia de desgaste laboral en los universitarios. Resultados: Del total de 1013 estudiantes, 206 completaron la encuesta y 200 universitarios cumplieron los criterios de inclusión, teniendo como resultado que el puntaje EAT-26, sexo, estado civil, residencia, carrera profesional, ocupaci...

El presente estudio establece su población de estudio en un momento temporal de la pandemia por COVID-19 en el Perú, que corresponde a los meses de Mayo a Agosto del 2020. Este espacio de tiempo en el cual se definió esta población nos permitió conocer el comportamiento de las unidades de cuidados críticos en el Perú y los resultados en base a supervivencia que se presentaron en ese momento que corresponde a la primera ola de la pandemia(1).Hay que poner en contexto que durante ese tiempo que están incluidos dentro de las semanas epidemiológicas 3 a 50 predominaron las pruebas serológicas como las principales pruebasde diagnóstico de COVID-19 con más del 50% del total de pruebas,incluso con valores máximos superiores al 90% en las primeras 6 semanas epidemiológicas (2,3,4). Siendo por lo tanto muy difícil encontrar una población de estudio en el cual los diagnósticos se ...

Introducción: La COVID-19, causada por el Coronavirus 2 del Síndrome Respiratorio Agudo Severo (SARS-CoV-2), ha alcanzado proporciones pandémicas a nivel mundial, prolongándose en el tiempo. En este contexto, el presente estudio tiene como objetivo analizar los factores asociados a la mortalidad en pacientes hospitalizados por COVID-19 en un hospital de tercer nivel de la región Lambayeque. Material y método: Se realizó un estudio de cohorte retrospectivo de los pacientes con diagnóstico de COVID-19, hospitalizados en el Hospital Nacional Almanzor Aguinaga Asenjo (HNAAA) durante los meses de marzo a septiembre del 2020. Resultados: Se examinaron cuarenta pacientes que ingresaron en la Unidad de Cuidados Intensivos (UCI), de los cuales veintidós necesitaron ventilación mecánica (VM). La mortalidad general en la UCI fue del 68.7%, mientras que la mortalidad entre los pacientes q...

Introduction: COVID-19, caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), has reached pandemic proportions worldwide, persisting over time. In this context, this study aims to analyze the factors associated with mortality in hospitalized patients with COVID-19 in a third-level hospital in the Lambayeque region. Material and metodo: A retrospective cohort study was conducted on patients diagnosed with COVID-19, hospitalized at the National Hospital Almanzor Aguinaga Asenjo (HNAAA) during the months of March to September 2020. Results: Forty patients admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) were examined, of whom twenty-two required mechanical ventilation (MV). Overall mortality in the ICU was 68.7%, while mortality among patients who required mechanical ventilation was 91.6%. A statistical association was found between death and vital signs on admission to the ICU, ...

Introduction: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a worldwide public health crisis. The World Health Organization (WHO) established a priority list of resistant bacteria to guide research and alternatives for improvement. Objective: To describe the scientific production of Peru on AMR of bacteria prioritized by the World Health Organization, between 2012 and 2021. Methods: Observational descriptive study of bibliometric type in journals indexed in Scopus during the period 2012-2021. The selection of studies and data extraction were performed manually in duplicate. Resistant bacteria studied were classified based on priority (critical, high, and medium). Results: A total of 118 articles were included. During the period 2014-2021, the number of publications increased. The articles published in English accounted for 61.9%, 98.3% had their affiliation in Peru, and 77.1% were conducted in Lima....

Objective: We systematically assessed the efficacy of Concizumab in patients with Hemophilia A/B. Material and Methods: Five databases were searched up to May 2022 for randomized controlled trials in adults with severe Hemophilia A/B with or without inhibitors treated with Concizumab compared to standard care or placebo. Outcomes were bleeding episodes (ABRs), D - dimer, prothrombin fragment 1.2, fibrinogen levels, prothrombin time, nasopharyngitis, and upper respiratory tract infection. Results: Two RCTs (n = 86) were included. In both studies, decreased bleeding rates were observed at high levels of concizumab. Furthermore, both studies support the use of concizumab as a safe and well-tolerated prophylactic therapy administered subcutaneously in all haemophilia patients. Placebo was the comparator in one RCT, while Eptacog alfa (activated) rFVIIIa was the comparator in the other RCT. T...

Background: The risk of prematurity includes a wide variety of complications at birth, such as infectious diseases, intraventricular hemorrhage, neurosensory deficiencies, respiratory failure and involvement of other systems, as well as growth and developmental problems. Therefore, the achievement of the Millennium Development Goal of reducing child mortality depends largely on the reduction of mortality related to premature birth, making it one of the most important challenges for modern public health. Objetive: To identify maternal factors associated with prematurity. Material and Methods: A retrospective case-control study was conducted on 2000 live newborns in a public hospital in Trujillo, between 2015-2019. The groups were divided according to the criteria of gestational age. The paired maternal clinical variables were analyzed according to prematurity or term, and a bivariate and ...
