Cognitive Level of Parents About Toothpastes and Their Relationship in Prevention and Oral Health
(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2023-05-29) Paiva Guerrero, Kevin; Araujo Farje, Jessica Jazmin
Oral health care in children is important because it allows for optimal dental caries indices and prevention during the stages of permanent tooth eruption. In children, it is the parents who are responsible for their children's overall health care, and the oral cavity is a part of it. Objective: To determine the cognitive level of parents about toothpaste and its relationship to the prevention of oral health in their children from the Juana Marlene Uribe Romero school in the district of San Martín de Porres. Methodology: The approach was quantitative, as numerical data was collected using a Likert scale. The design was basic and non-experimental because the study variables were not manipulated. Surveys were applied to 70 parents to collect data on the cognitive level and prevention, while an observation form based on the ICDAS and IHOS was used for oral health. Results: The results showed that the cognitive level of parents is significantly positively related to prevention (0.003 < 0.05 and r = 0.515, moderate) and oral health (0.002 < 0.05 and r = 0.613, high). Additionally, the cognitive level of parents regarding toothpaste was 31% very good and 40% good. For oral prevention in children, 37% was good and 44% was average, and for children's oral health, 63% was good and 4% was average. Conclusion: There is a significant positive relationship between the cognitive level of parents about toothpaste and the prevention of oral health in children from the Juana Marlene Uribe Romero primary school in San Martín de Porres, 2022, with a moderate relationship in prevention (r = 0.515) and a high relationship in oral health (r = 0.613)

Systematic observational and retrospective review, which synthesizes multiple primary research studies. They are part of evidence-based nursing due to their rigorous methodology, identifying studies to answer specific questions in practice. The selected full-text articles were subjected to critical reading and the GRADE system for recommendation strength. Ten articles were chosen, with 20% from Sweden, Vietnam (10%), Canada (10%), Mexico (10%), Australia (10%), and Amsterdam (10%), and China, India, USA (10%). Considering the research designs: four randomized clinical trials, one systematic review and meta-analysis, five prospective cohort studies. Results: Of the 10 articles reviewed, 90% show the effectiveness of administering the tetravalent vaccine with two doses compared to three doses. Additionally, 10% report that fewer than three doses of the tetravalent vaccine have not demonstrated non-inferior immunogenicity compared to three doses, and due to inconclusive evidence, vaccination implementation should be monitored. Conclusion: The studies reviewed provide evidence that 9 out of 10 indicate the effectiveness of the tetravalent vaccine when administering two and three doses.

Objective: To determine the level of knowledge and practices regarding breast cancer prevention among users treated at the gynecology and obstetrics service of the Huacho Regional Hospital in 2021. Methodology: This is a quantitative study with a descriptive and cross-sectional design. The population consisted of 207 users, and the sample was also 207. Results: Regarding the age of the interviewed users, 40.1% were between 25-34 years old, 83.1% of the users lived in urban areas, 59.9% were cohabiting, 44.9% had a secondary education level, and 43% were housewives. As for the knowledge level about breast cancer, 82.1% had an average level of knowledge. The level of preventive practices regarding breast cancer prevention showed that 65.2% of the users performed regular self-exams. Conclusion: It was concluded that the level of knowledge about breast cancer prevention among users treated at the gynecology and obstetrics service of Huacho Regional Hospital in 2021 was 82.1%, indicating an average knowledge level.

Knowledge and preventive measures of unwanted pregnancy among nursing students at Norbert Wiener University in the 2021-I period
(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2022-09-23) Rojas Zapata, Allison Francesca; Fuentes Siles, María Angélica
Objective: Determine the relationship between the level of knowledge and measures to prevent unwanted pregnancy in nursing students at Norbert Wiener University in the 2021-I period. Research methodology: The study is correlational, of an application type and non-experimental design. The population is made up of one hundred and sixty (160) nursing students from Norbert Wiener University. The data collection technique was the survey and was applied using a virtual form. Results: A positive and moderate, statistically significant correlation was evident between the study variables with a Spearman coefficient of 0.5342. Conclusions: It can be inferred that there is a relationship between the study variables. Regarding the family, self-taught/audiovisual, school/university and social dimensions, the correlation values amount to 0.4813, 0.3313, 0.3618 and 0.3438 respectively. What was found in the study shows the importance of disseminating the necessary knowledge to promote the prevention of unwanted pregnancies, given the direct relationship that exists between both variables.

(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2018-03-25) Rosales Gavidia, Li Roxana; Gamarra Bustillos, Carlos
Objective: To systematize evidence on nursing care in the prevention of phlebitis in patients with peripheral venous catheters (PVC). Methodology: A systematic review of 10 scientific articles on the prevention of phlebitis in patients with PVC was conducted. The studies were retrieved from databases such as Scielo and Medline PubMed and included designs such as systematic reviews, quantitative studies, and meta-analyses. Results: The findings indicate that 100% (10/10) of the reviewed articles demonstrate that nursing care in patients with PVC effectively prevents the occurrence of phlebitis. Conclusions: The systematic review of 10 scientific articles highlights the pivotal role of nursing interventions in preventing phlebitis in patients with PVC. Evidence supports: - Changing peripheral lines when clinically indicated. - Preferring larger-caliber veins and avoiding insertion sites with high friction and mobility. - Minimizing prolonged infusions of highly concentrated medications. - Flushing the catheter with 0.09% sal
