(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2023-02-05) Vega Ravello, Ana Celeste; Suarez Valderrama, Yurik Anatoli
To determine the relationship between patient safety culture and prevention of adverse events in nurses working in the postoperative cardiac unit in a specialized institute, Lima 2023. The research project will use a quantitative approach, descriptive correlational, and cross-sectional methodological design with a population of 60 nursing professionals. The independent variable will be the patient safety culture with its dimensions: safety in the work area, the safety provided by management, safety from communication, reported events, and safety from primary care. Meanwhile, the dependent variable will be the prevention of adverse events with its dimensions related to clinical administration, care procedures, documentation errors, and medication; these will be measured by means of a survey and the results will be subjected to validity with a significance level of 0.05 and reliability of 0.86 Cronbach's Alpha.

Effectiveness of respiratory physiotherapy in post-operative chest surgery patients to prevent pulmonary complications
(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2020-01-05) Lazo Trujillo, Patricia; Pisfil Fajardo, Jenny Maribel; Fernández Rengifo, Werther Fernando
Objective: To systematize the evidence on the effectiveness of respiratory physiotherapy in postoperative patients who have undergone thoracic surgery. Materials and methods: Among the 10 articles systematically reviewed on the effectiveness of respiratory physiotherapy in preventing pulmonary complications in postoperative thoracic surgery patients, high-quality and high-strength articles were selected from Scielo, PubMed, and Dynaed, all within the healthcare field. The studies include systematic reviews (20% - 2/10), randomized clinical trials (50% - 5/10), quasi-experimental studies (10% - 1/10), cohort studies (10% - 1/10), and case-control studies (10% - 1/10). These studies were conducted in Spain (30%), Australia (20%), Italy (10%), Japan (10%), Iran (10%), the United Kingdom (10%), and Sweden (10%). Results: The review of these scientific articles shows that 80% of them support the effectiveness of respiratory physiotherapy in postoperative thoracic surgery patients. They highlight the importance of respiratory physiotherapy and its benefits in preventing postoperative pulmonary complications, reducing hospital stays, and decreasing healthcare costs. Conclusions: 80% of the studies revealed the effectiveness of respiratory physiotherapy through respiratory training exercises, which reduce the presence of pulmonary complications in postoperative thoracic surgery patients. It is thus determined that respiratory exercises before and after surgery are crucial. However, 10% of the articles using incentives such as an incentive spirometer did not present significant evidence of effectiveness, and 10% indicated that respiratory physiotherapy was not necessary.
