Exercise tolerance and maximal oxygen uptake in healthy people from in Comas parish, 2022
(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2022-09-16) Palomino Tapia, Juana Erlinda; Chero Pisfil, Santos Lucio
Physical activity is currently a global health issue due to the limited dedication to developing physical fitness. The loss of muscle strength or decreased aerobic capacity has been considered a harmful indicator for health. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), one in four adults does not engage in physical activity. As economic progress advances in developing countries, physical inactivity increases by approximately 70% due to greater use of transportation, new technology, cultural values, and urban growth (1). In 2018, the United Nations General Assembly (UN) addressed the political declaration on non-communicable diseases (NCDs) and implemented measures to reduce life-threatening risks and disabilities. The risk of dying from NCDs between the ages of 30 and 70 decreased by 4% between 2000 and 2016; however, this rate remains insufficient to meet the target set for 2030. It is essential for respiratory physiotherapists to be familiar with measurement tools, proper and timely evaluations for rehabilitation programs, and specific tests to assess patient conditions. Maximum oxygen consumption (VO2max) is related to cardiorespiratory function and is considered the most reliable indicator for determining physical fitness at the cardiovascular and respiratory levels. Among the specific objectives is to determine the relationship between exercise tolerance and maximum oxygen consumption in healthy individuals. To achieve this, a project is proposed using a hypothetical-deductive method, as it focuses on studying the variable under investigation from the general to the specific.

Factors influencing adherence to treatment in patients with tuberculosis
(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2021-10-31) Montañez Cancino, Gloria Maria; Palomino Taquire, Rewards
This work aims to analyze scientific articles related to the factors that are determinants in the degree of adherence to treatment presented by patients with tuberculosis. The study design was a systematic review, having as population 10 scientific articles that were published in the last 10 years, selected and analyzed using the GRADE evaluation and establishing their scientific quality. Obtaining as a result: 40% (4/10) were cohort studies, 30% (3/10) were systematic reviews, 20% (2/10) were cross-sectional studies and 10% (1/10) were quasi-experimental. It was observed that adherence to treatment is a very complex issue, since up to 10 factors that influence the patient's healing process have been identified. These include family support, being part of a risk group, stigma about the disease, knowledge about TB, low socioeconomic status, home vulnerability, distance to the treatment center, low education, working in service or construction sectors, and mental health problems. Conclusions: The process of treatment adherence is complex, since there are circumstances that do not directly depend on the patient. Therefore, if we want to prevent patients from abandoning treatment, their situation must be taken into account in order to offer them quality service. Thus, there is a great need for specialized care from health centers.
