Objective. To determine the prevalence of metabolic syndrome in patients with acute coronary syndrome admitted to the Coronary Care Unit of Jose Carrasco Arteaga Hospital. Cuenca, 2009-2010 Materials and methods. A descriptive study was conducted with a sample of 200 patients calculated based on the 20% prevalence of metabolic syndrome in the general population with an inference error of 5% and a confidence level of 95%. Results. The prevalence of metabolic syndrome was 56.50% (95% CI 52.58% -60.56%), more often in males 65% (95% CI 59.39% -70.78%) than females 35% (95%: 30.93% -39.29%), with 48.50% (95% CI 43.67%-53.52%) between 46-64 years of age. Unstable Angina was more frequent coronary syndrome with 49.60% (95%CI 45.02% -54.03%), followed by acute myocardial infarction with ST-segment elevation 33.60% (95% CI 30.53% -36.85%) and without ST segment elevation with 16.80% (95% CI 15.31% -18.47%). Abdominal obesity was present in 77% of cases. Conclusions. The prevalence of metabolic syndrome was 56.5%, predominantly in men, distributed between 45-64 years of age.

Objective: To identify the prevalence and factors associated with mortality due to sepsis in intensive care patients at the "José Carrasco Arteaga Hospital" from July 1, 2012 to December 31, 2015. Method and techniques: A transversal analytical study was carried out in 220 clinical histories; using measures of central tendency, mean, measures of dispersion; as well as frequencies, percentages, bivariate analysis, p-value, 95% CI and PR, and multivariate binary logistic regression analysis. Results: The prevalence of mortality was 47.3%; the age group with the highest prevalence was 70-79 years (21.4%), 54% of the patients corresponded to the female sex. The infectious digestive focus was the most frequent (44.54%), followed by the respiratory one (31.36%). Greater mortality was associated to: Age> 75 years (56.9%), presence of complications during hospitalization in the intensive care unit (67.2%), scores on the APACHE II scale ≥22 (61, 3%) and SOFA ≥8 (55.6%) within the first 24 hours of admission to the intensive care ward and the use of mechanical ventilation (65.5%). Conclusions: The prevalence of mortality in patients with sepsis was high, being associated with age> 75 years, complications in ICU, APACHE II ≥22, SOFA ≥8 and use of mechanical ventilation
