Ítem Acceso abierto Effectiveness of "Plastic Wrap" in preventing hypothermia in preterm newborns(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2018-09-02) Malpartida Recines, Sandra Liliana; Palacios Saquicoray, Magaly Ina; Rivera Lozada De Bonilla, OrianaObjective: Systematize the evidence on the effectiveness of Plastic Wrap in preventing hypothermia in premature newborns. Material and Methods: Systematic review of 10 selected articles, using the Pubmed, Elsevier, Science Direct, Redalyc, Cochrane, Researchgate database. It is a quantitative study with a systematic experimental and cohort design. Results: The effectiveness of Plastic Wrap in preventing hypothermia in premature newborns. We found that 100% (n = 10/10) of the articles evidence the effectiveness of Plastic Wrap in preventing hypothermia in premature newborns. The effectiveness in preventing hypothermia in premature newborns together with other devices represents 50% (n=5/10), making skin-to-skin contact and using heat-transmitting mattresses that keep premature newborns warmer, which leads to stable temperatures upon admission to neonatal units and less hypothermia. Conclusion: Plastic Wrap demonstrates effectiveness in preventing hypothermia in premature newborns.Ítem Acceso abierto Effectiveness of forced air to reduce hypothermia in intraoperative patients(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2020-12-27) Suni Suni, Jackeline Cecilia; Vera Ortiz, Maryori; Pretell Aguilar, Rosa MariaObjective: Systematize the evidence on the effectiveness of forced air to reduce hypothermia in patients intraoperatively. Methodology: randomized clinical trials published between 2019 and 2015, which were obtained from different national and international research databases that had as their main study topic the effectiveness of forced air to prevent intraoperative hypothermia. Results: 80% of the evidence says that forced air is more effective and the other 20% shows that forced air is not effective in reducing hypothermia in patients in the perioperative period. Conclusions: 8/10 evidence concludes that forced air is more effective in maintaining the thermoregulation of the patient undergoing surgery intraoperatively while 2/10 evidence concludes that active heating intraoperatively is associated with control measures in the temperature in the environment providing adequate temperature and skin heating to the surgical patient being related to forced air.Ítem Acceso abierto Effectiveness of heated and humidified CO2 for reducing intraoperative hypothermia in patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2021-11-07) Jesús Arias, Henry Ramón; Bastidas Solis, Miriam CeciliaObjective: To analyze and systematize the evidence on the effectiveness of heated and humidified CO2 for reducing intraoperative hypothermia in patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery.

Conclusion: Half of the studies (5/10) indicate the effectiveness of warming devices in preventing and maintaining temperature during inadvertent hypothermia in the peri- and postoperative period in surgical patients. The remaining 5/10 indicate concordance with the use of warming devices in the prevention and maintenance of temperature during inadvertent hypothermia in the peri- and postoperative period in surgical patients.Ítem Acceso abierto Efficacy of forced air in the prevention of hypothermia in presurgical patients(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2021-11-14) Lozano Pariona, Julio; Vásquez Mego, Zalomon; Pretell Aguilar, Rosa MariaWorldwide, surgical interventions are performed where patients are prone to different complications such as hypothermia, surgical site infection, delayed wound healing, and coagulation impairment. Therefore, the nursing professional resorts to the use of forced air warming systems to reduce thermal discomfort. The perioperative period consists of three phases: preoperative (the hour prior to the surgical procedure), intraoperative (time inside the operating room), and postoperative (time in the post-anesthesia recovery unit). Scientific evidence consistently shows that patients undergoing surgery, and thus anesthesia procedures, experience drops in their central temperature during one of these phases or even throughout the entire period.Ítem Acceso abierto Efficacy of forced hot air for the management of hypothermia in the perioperative period(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 1905-07-09) Moya Malasquez, Maria Isabel; Cuba Vergara, Lissete Pamela; Rivera Lozada de Bonilla, OrianaObjective: Determine the effectiveness of forced hot air for the management of hypothermia in the perioperative period. Methodology: Systematic review that compiles 11 investigations published between 2006 and 2016, obtained from different databases and scientific journals. Results: This review presents the characteristics and effectiveness of forced hot air and its influence as a strategy in thermal management to reduce perioperative complications and thereby ensure an adequate temperature in the patient to achieve comfort and user satisfaction. Conclusions: The reviewed articles show us that the application of the forced air warming system is one of the most effective methods in maintaining perioperative normothermia, even in comparison with other methods to prevent hypothermia in the perioperative period. Likewise, active warming from the immediate preoperative period, associated with measures such as increasing the ambient temperature and active skin warming, are related to greater effectiveness in preventing perioperative hypothermia; highlighting the importance of temperature monitoring pre-, intra- and post-operatively, and its positive effects in maintaining normothermia during this stage, such as: prevention of infection of the surgical wound, reducing post-hospitalization time. operation, patient comfort, reduce postoperative pain, avoid bleeding, among other important complications.Ítem Acceso abierto 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, OrianaThe 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.Ítem Acceso abierto Efficacy of prehospital therapeutic hypothermia in improving survival and neurological outcomes in patients with cardiac arrest(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2019-08-25) Gamero Usca, Jose Luis; Matta Solis, Hernán HugoObjective: To systematically analyze the evidence regarding the effectiveness of pre-hospital therapeutic hypothermia to improve survival and neurological outcomes in patients with cardiac arrest. Material and methods: The present study is qualitative with a study design of a systematic review of 10 scientific articles on the effectiveness of prehospital therapeutic hypothermia to improve survival and neurological outcomes in patients with cardiac arrest. These articles were analyzed according to the Grade system. to determine their strength and quality of evidence and were found in the following databases: PubMed, Sciencedirect, Scielo, Epistemonikos. Results: Of the 10 articles reviewed, it was concluded that only 20% point out the effectiveness of pre-hospital therapeutic hypothermia in post-cardiac arrest patients, which shows an improvement in survival with good neurological results of patients upon hospital discharge. On the other hand, 80% of the articles reviewed indicate a series of limitations. Conclusion: The articles reviewed point out that the evidence does not support the administration of pre-hospital therapeutic hypothermia to patients with cardiac arrest where optimal temperature was not achieved by pre-hospital hypothermia due to short transport time. and limited cold liquid.Ítem Acceso abierto Efficacy of probiotics in the prevention of the most frequent infections in the preterm newborn.(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2018-08-12) Haro Shapiama, Gianina; Guevara López, Lorena Astrick; Calsin Pacompia, Wilmer90% of the 10 scientific studies demonstrate the effectiveness of the use of probiotics in preventing the most common infections in premature newborns (early sepsis and enterocolitis), while also improving oral tolerance, intestinal maturation, and increasing the weight of preterm neonates. 10% of the studies show that there is no significant difference, highlighting the need for further studies to address the combination of probiotic strains, dosage, and duration to avoid erroneous conclusions, especially in very low birth weight neonates.Ítem Acceso abierto Efficacy of the active warming system to reduce the risk of hypothermia in postoperative patients(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2020-12-20) Arbizu Berrocal, Ingrid; Zevallos Cano, Jessica; Cárdenas de Fernández, María HildaObjective: Organize evidence on the effectiveness of active warming to reduce the risk of hypothermia in post-operative patients.

RESULTS: 10 scientific articles published in the database were obtained, with a publication time of 5 years and published in languages such as Spanish, Portuguese and English and were located in the database such as: scielo, epistemonikos, elsiever and google academic, 5 of them are concordant and 5 discordant. CONCLUSION: According to the evidence reviewed, it is concluded that the active warming system to reduce hypothermia in post-operative patients is not effective.Ítem Acceso abierto Efficacy of the use of external active heating devices in the perioperative period to reduce hypothermia in patients undergoing surgical intervention(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2020-02-16) Erribari Sulluchuco, Mirtha Nitza; Giraldo Vicente, Betzabé Maira; Gamarra Bustillos, CarlosObjective: Systematize the evidence on the effectiveness of the use of external active heating devices in the perioperative period to reduce hypothermia in patients undergoing surgical intervention. Materials and Methods: A retrospective systematic review was carried out, which summarizes the findings of various primary studies. These investigations are an important part of evidence-based nursing to answer clinical questions. Thus, it was restricted to documents using the GRADE system, which allowed the recommendation power to be strengthened. Subsequently, the selected investigations were subjected to critical analysis. Results: Finally, 10 articles were selected, carried out in the present study, the active heating methods are efficient, although some seem to be more efficient than others. Better findings were obtained when warming was extended to the preoperative stage to reduce the occurrence of perioperative hypothermia. For this reason, intervention measures are necessary in order to prevent hypothermia and maintain normal temperature before and during the operation. Conclusions: Active warming methods were shown to be effective in maintaining perioperative normothermia. Being an effective measure (efficient and effective), since it increases body temperature and thermal comfort, patient satisfaction and facilitates venous cannulation, it reduces bleeding, infection of the surgical wound, mechanical ventilation time, use of fluids, vasodilators, morphine and antibiotics, blood pressure and cardiac disorders, reduces hospitalization time and costs. Warming during the intraoperative period is sufficient to effectively prevent hypothermia, both at this stage and in the postoperative period.Ítem Acceso abierto Efficacy of therapeutic hypothermia in reducing the risk of mortality in adults with cardiac arrest(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 1905-07-09) Mendoza Blas, Zully Janneth; Orbegoso Escobedo, Claudia Vanessa; Gómez Gonzales, Walter EdgarObjective: Determine the effectiveness of therapeutic hypothermia to reduce the risk of mortality in adults with cardiac arrest. Material and methods: Systematic Reviews are an observational and retrospective research design, which synthesizes the results of multiple primary investigations. They are an essential part of evidence-based nursing due to their rigorous methodology, identifying relevant studies to answer specific questions of clinical practice. Results: The population was made up of the bibliographic review of 13 scientific articles published and indexed in the Scielo, Pubmed, Medline, Lilacs databases, no older than ten years and that respond to articles published in the Spanish language. This work makes it clear that 92 percent (12 studies) prove that the use of therapeutic hypothermia is effective after cardiac arrest; while 8 percent (1 study) show that it is not effective. Conclusions: The studies reviewed show that therapeutic hypothermia in intensive care units is associated with a relative reduction in hospital mortality in patients with cardiac arrest, therefore we can affirm that therapeutic hypothermia is effective in reducing mortality in patients with cardiac arrest. cardiac, a stable temperature of 32-34°C must be maintained for 24 hours
