(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2019-04-17) Machacuay Vilcatoma, Gladys Yeny; Cardenas Huapaya, Maritza Milagros; Matta Solis, Hernán Hugo
Objective: Determine the relationship between adherence to pharmacological treatment and health-related quality of life in people with high blood pressure, treated in the outpatient cardiology clinic of the Hipólito Unanue National Hospital, Lima - 2018. Methodology: Quantitative, correlational, non-experimental study and cross section. The population was made up of 210 patients who attended the clinic in the month of May, in which instruments that included demographic variables were used: the Morisky–Green test (adherence) and the MINICHAL (quality of life). Results: Of a total of 210 patients, 20.5% were adherent, 51.4% evidenced health-related quality of life in a high range. Between the variable Adherence to pharmacological treatment and Health-related quality of life, the test obtained a significance value of 0.008 (p < 0.05), which indicates that there is a relationship. Conclusions: The greater the adherence to treatment, the better the quality of life; and as non-adherent people increase, health-related quality of life decreases.

These databases were cited: Pubmed, Chronane, Scielo, Dialnet; of 10 articles found and evaluated according to the Grade scale to establish their strength and quality as evidence. It is analyzed that 50% (n= 5/10) are clinical trials, 10% (n= 1/10) are meta-analyses, 30% (n= 3/10) are descriptive and 10% (n=1/10) are descriptive. 10) It is quasi-experimental, 60% (n=1/11) are a systematic review, 20% (n= 4/11) are a randomized clinical trial. (RCT) 3 prospective. Results: Of the 10 articles found, 80% point out that antiseptics, especially chlorhexidine, are effective in healing, but they have the effect of lengthening the period of cord detachment, being counterproductive to the healing process. Likewise, 70% of the articles point out other care alternatives such as natural ones, although they do not optimally interfere with disinfection, they also help shorten the lifespan of the umbilical cord without complications. Conclusion: 7 of 10 articles found point out the effectiveness of using natural care to reduce the lifespan of the umbilical cord, also showing that it does not produce a risk of the appearance of infections.

Objective: Analyze the evidence about the effectiveness of the use of the digital thermometer versus the infrared thermometer in pediatric patients. Material and Methods: Systematic analysis of 10 scientific articles about the effectiveness of the use of the digital thermometer versus the infrared thermometer in pediatric patients, classified according to criteria, evaluating the quality of the evidence through the Grade system, located in the databases. following data: PubMed, Medline, Elsiber, Bvs, Scielo, Cochrane Plus Results: 30% (n= 3/10) are systematic reviews, 10% (n=1/10) are randomized clinical trials, 20% (n=2/10) are randomized controlled clinical trials, 30% (n=3/10) are cohort studies, and 10% (n=1/10) are randomized clinical trials. It is an analytical cross-sectional study. Of the 10 articles systematically examined, 70% (n=7/10) determined the effectiveness of the use of digital thermometers in terms of its use being more effective, precise and sensitive, even at higher temperatures and 30% (n=3 /10) agree that measuring infrared temperature is faster, as it does not contact the skin, is easier for the pediatric patient and there is not much relevance with the digital thermometer. Conclusions: Of the articles examined, 7 of the 10 articles demonstrate that the digital thermometer is considered more effective due to its precision, sensitivity, and 3 of the 10 articles report that the infrared thermometer is considered more effective due to its speed, and less contact with the patient.
