Objective: To determine preventive measures compliance on patients with mechanical ventilation in the Critical Care Unit at the Hospital Guillermo Almenara Irigoyen. Materials and Methods: Prospective observational study of longitudinal cut, the population was comprised of the patients that entered the Critical Care Unit. For convenience, a non-probabilistic sample was used, which was comprised of 50 patients who were studied during the months of June to November of 2016. Patients who passed away within 48 hours of admission were excluded. The instrument used was a verification list made up of a set of six preventive measures containing dichotomous type answers, with a reliability of 0.80 using the Richarson Kuder method. Results: 52% of the patients who average ≥ 60 years old, with a male predominance, the respiratory pathology constituted 60% of the cases, 58% of the patients ha...

Vulvodynia is defined as vulvar discomfort, described as a burning pain with an average duration of 3 months and a prevalence of 16%. The methodology used consisted of a systematic review and analysis in electronic databases, through the use of keywords. The etiology remains unknown, despite the fact that various theories maintain that it has a multifactorial origin. The diagnosis of vulvodynia is made through a thorough evaluation of the history of pain, sexual history, clinical situation and physical examination. Non-medical treatment includes psychological interventions that aim to reduce pain and restore sexual function. Alternative therapies have not yet proven effective for the treatment of vulvodynia, while physical therapy, by helping to reduce tissue restrictions, helps restore the length of the muscles and tissues of the pelvis. Likewise, medical treatment includes local therap...

Objective: To determine the relationship between organizational climate and Burnout Syndrome among nursing professionals of the Emergency Service in a Hospital Category III-2. Material and methods: quantitative, prospective, correlational cross-sectional study. The sample consisted of 43 nurses, using a non-probability sampling for convenience. For analysis and study of the variables, Rensis Likert scale and Maslach Burnout Inventory were used. Results: The organizational climate was average level (81.4%) followed by a high level (18.6%) and the Burnout Syndrome corresponds to low level (86%) and medium (14%) level. The relationship between organizational climate and Burnout Syndrome was low (rho = -0.11). Conclusions: In the Emergency Service, the level of organizational climate was fairly favorable with absence of Burnout Syndrome among nursing professionals. There is not significant r...

Estudio descriptivo, retrospectivo, transversal en una población de 190 prematuros de extremadamente bajo peso y de muy bajo peso, que nacieron durante enero 2009 a junio del 2014, egresados de la Unidad de Cuidados Intensivos Neonatales del Hospital Nacional Edgardo Rebagliati Martins, que asistieron al programa de seguimiento, con el fin de describir las secuelas del neurodesarrollo de los recién nacidos. Se evaluaron el desarrollo psicomotor, hipoacusia neurosensorial, retinopatía de la prematuridad, presencia de parálisis cerebral y síndrome convulsivo. El retraso del desarrollo psicomotor y la retinopatía fueron las complicaciones más importantes que presentaron los recién nacidos prematuros de extremadamente bajo peso y los recién nacidos prematuros de muy bajo a los dos años de edad.

Objective: The purpose of this study is to describe the neurodevelopmental sequelae in premature newborns with extremely low weight and with very low weight at two years of age who left the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit of the Hospital Nacional Edgardo Rebagliati Martins. Materials and methods: A descriptive, retrospective, cross-sectional study in a population of 190 premature newborns with extremely low weight and with very low weight born from January 2009 to June 2014 who left the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit and took part in the follow-up program. The psychomotor development, sensorineural hearing loss, retinopathy of prematurity, presence of cerebral palsy and convulsive syndrome were assessed. Results: The average weight at birth was 1,180.53 ± 212.40 grams with a gestational age of 29.86 ± 2.33 weeks, and 51.58% of the newborns were male. Forty-two point six three percent (42.63...

Introduction. The educational model focused on learning attempts to provide the student a more important role in the process of acquiring knowledge, for this it is necessary to identify preferences or learning style of the students. Objectives. Analysis the influence of the use of active methodology and learning styles in students of the methodology course of undergraduate research. Methods. Quantitative study of quasi-experimental, prospective longitudinal design, the study population consisted of undergraduate students of the research methodology course. A non-probabilistic sample was used for convenience, consisting of 79 students. The instrument used was the learning style test developed by David Kolb. The implementation of the active methodology was carried out during the development of the course. Results The participation of the students during the development of classes and the u...
