Efficacy of glycine versus distilled water to reduce hydroelectrolyte disorders in patients undergoing transurethral resection
(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2017-08-05) Lugarte Caballero, Giner Valentin; Revatta Beingolea, Hilda; Rivera Lozada de Bonilla, Oriana
The objective of the research is to systematize the evidence on the effectiveness of glycine versus distilled water to reduce hydroelectrolyte disorders in patients undergoing transurethral resection (TUR). 10 scientific articles were reviewed, including controlled, randomized, cohort, case-control, and experimental trials. 50% evidence was found that irrigated patients present hyponatremia, being less with distilled water, 10% evidence that the use of distilled water reduces perioperative hypothermia and tremors, 10% demonstrates in a comparison of the absorption of irrigation fluids (saline solution ) used during rtu, is a non-significant percentage. 10% conclude that glycine solution increases the transparency of the optics, compared to distilled water, 10% demonstrate that irrigation with water in preventing the recurrence of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer is as effective as mitomycin, 10 % conclude that distilled water is an effective solution as an irrigant in procedures such as percutaneous nephrolithotomy. Concluding that both distilled water and glycine produce hydroelectrolyte disorders when used as irrigant in rtu, where the differences are not statistically significant.

Efficacy of hydrocolloid dressings in the treatment of pressure ulcers in intensive care unit patients
(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 1905-07-09) Barrera Elguera, Soledad Pilar; Pujay Aponte, Yanet Alicia; Avila Vargas Machuca, Jeannette Giselle
Systematize the evidence on the effectiveness of the use of hydrocolloid dressings in the treatment of pressure ulcers in patients in the intensive care unit. Methodology: Systematic Review, 10 articles were chosen, which were studied, of which 70% are systematic reviews and meta-analysis, mainly in the countries of the United States and China, and 30% are cross-sectional analytical studies that were developed in the countries from Brazil, Spain and Peru Results: Of the articles studied, 70% show that products for the treatment of UPPs based on cure in a humid environment such as hydrocolloids have greater clinical efficacy than traditional treatment in the intensive care unit.Conclusion: The results of the review we have carried out show the existence of evidence in favor of the greater clinical effectiveness of dressings based on healing in a humid environment in the healing of pressure ulcers, lower overall cost and They are changed every three to five days, although they can remain in situ for up to seven days. And they are less effective than polyurethane foam (hydropolymer) dressings since they have a greater capacity for absorbing exudate and are easier to apply. removal than hydrocolloid dressings.
