Effectiveness of bundles to reduce bloodstream infections in patients with central lines in critical units
(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2019-09-29) Navarro Asencios, Carlos Alfredo; Pretell Aguilar, Rosa María
Objective: Systematize the evidence on the effectiveness of bundles to reduce bloodstream infections in patients with a central line in critical units. Material and methods: Systematic observational and retrospective review, subjected to critical reading and using the GRADE evaluation system to identify the degree of evidence of the articles published in the following databases: Epistemonikos, Sciencedirect, PubMed, Researchgate. Of the 10 articles systematically reviewed, 30% are of high quality as described below: 30% (n= 3/10) are meta-analyses and 70% (n= 7/10) are of medium quality represented by 50% (n= 5/10) are cohort studies and 20% (n= 2/10) are quasi-experimental and come from the countries of the Netherlands (20%), Taiwan (20%) followed by Belgium (10%), Korea (10%), Chile (10%), Australia (10%), Colombia (10%), and Thailand (10%). Conclusion: Bundles are effective in reducing bloodstream infections in patients with central lines in critical units.

Effectiveness of pillows in reducing cervical thoracic pain and improving sleep in workers
(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2019-09-22) Sánchez Salazar, Salomé; De la Cruz López, Katherine Lizeth; Calsin Pacompia, Wilmer
Objective: Systematize the evidence on the effectiveness of pillows in reducing cervical thoracic pain and improving sleep in workers. Material and methods: The type of quantitative research, the study design is a systematic review, the population was 176 articles, and the sample was 10 scientific articles published and indexed in scientific databases, the instrument was a search based on Data: Pubmed, Epistemonikos, MEDLINE For the evaluation of the articles, the GRADE system was used, which evaluated the quality of evidence and the strength of recommendation. Results: The 100% articles correspond to the United States 10%, Thailand 10%, Australia 20%, China 20%, South Korea 20% and Italy 20%. In relation to the designs and types of studies, 90% were randomized controlled trials, 10% were retrospective comparative trials and 10% were systematic reviews. Conclusion: It was concluded that 100% of authors point out the effectiveness of the use of pillows of all types that allow the reduction of cervical thoracic pain and the improvement of sleep in workers within their home, taking into account the shape or latex design. or viscoelastic, made of cool material, the height and dimension of the layers that can provide comfort.

Effectiveness of the use of polyethylene bags for the prevention of hypothermia in premature and low birth weight newborns
(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 1905-07-09) Hernández Julca, Bertha Gladys; Pérez Franco, Sandra Jesús; Remuzgo Artezano, Anika
Objective: Determine the effectiveness of the use of polyethylene bags for the prevention of hypothermia in premature and low birth weight newborns. Materials and Methods: Observational and retrospective systematic review, the search has been restricted to articles with full text, and the selected articles were subjected to a critical reading, together with the intensive bibliographic search algorithm and the PICO strategy. Results: 10 articles were obtained as a population, of which 100% (10/10) demonstrated that the use of the polyethylene bag to prevent hypothermia in premature and low birth weight newborns is effective; We also point out that of these, 20% correspond to the United States as well as those from Mexico, while 10% are from Uruguay, Canada, Thailand, Zambia, Brazil and England respectively. Therefore, it is concluded to consider the use of polyethylene bags as an additional effective and safe intervention to prevent hypothermia in premature and low birth weight newborns. Conclusions: 100% (10/10) of scientific articles have shown that the use of polyethylene bags is effective in interrupting heat loss through convection, conduction and evaporation mechanisms. Likewise, by preventing hypothermia we not only find stable oxygen saturation but also other vital functions and consequently the most serious complication such as neurological damage is avoided.

Efficacy of Probiotics for the Prevention of Diarrhea in Cancer Patients Undergoing Chemoradiation
(Universidad Privada Norbert Wiener, 2019-09-22) Jimenez Barrenechea, Marcia Maricruz; Quispe Lucana, Gianina Raquel; Matta Solis, Eduardo Percy
Objective: Systematize the evidence regarding the effectiveness of probiotics for the prevention of diarrhea in cancer patients undergoing chemoradiation. Materials and Methods: The design used was a retrospective and observational systematic review, which uses a specific method to summarize and synthesize the results of scientific articles. The population was made up of 19 scientific articles whose publication was in scientific databases. Selection criteria were established such as age, degree and quality of evidence, etc., through which 10 articles that represent the sample were selected. Results: In the 10 selected articles, 30% (n=3) were carried out in China, 10% (n=1) in the United Kingdom, 10% (n=1) in Canada, 10% (n=1) in Spain , 10%(n=1) in Slovakia, 10% (n=1) in Germany, 10%(n=1) in Scotland and 10%(n=1) in Thailand. Of which 30% (n=3) were Systematic Review studies, 30% (n=3) Meta-analysis and systematic review, 40% (n=4) Randomized Controlled Trial. Of 10 pieces of evidence, 100% (n=10) affirm that probiotics prevent diarrhea in cancer patients undergoing chemoradiation. Conclusions: There is high-quality evidence on the effectiveness of probiotics in preventing diarrhea in cancer patients undergoing chemoradiation.
