(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 1905-07-09) Chavalía Cóello, Diana Elizabeth; Menacho Vergara, Lissette Carolina; Gómez Gonzales, Walter Edgar
Objective: Determine the best concentration of chlorhexidine used to perform oral hygiene to prevent pneumonia in intubated patients. Materials and Methods: Systematic reviews are an observational and meta-analysis research design, which synthesizes the results of multiple primary investigations. They are an essential part of evidence-based nursing due to their rigorous methodology, which is why a systematic review was carried out with articles in English and Spanish indexed in Cochrane, Embase, Lilacs, Pubmed, Medline, identifying relevant studies to answer specific questions of clinical practice. Results: The SCHEFFE statistical test indicated that of oral hygiene, chlorhexidine showed a statistically significant difference over other forms of hygiene in the reduction of the number of bacterial colonies (p<0.001). The only effect on reducing VAP was found when 0.12% chlorhexidine was used, used in cardiovascular surgery, where Chlorhexidine is used from preoperatively.

(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2021-03-14) Rosales Espinoza, Cristhian Cesar; Olano Calle, Xymena Paola; Bastidas Solis, Miriam Cecilia
10 articles were chosen, finding that (30%) correspond to studies from the United States, New Zealand (20%), Iran (10%), Argentina (10%), Colombia (10%), Australia (10%) and Uganda (10%). Analyzing the research designs, 6 systematic reviews, 1 cross-sectional study and 3 randomized clinical trials were included. Poor environmental sanitation shows high percentages of causing parasitic intestinal infections in a child population. There is a high prevalence of having parasitic intestinal infections in children due to poor basic sanitation because there are precarious sanitary conditions, inadequate provision of clean water, poor hygiene practices and lack of proper sewage.
