    No reference values for spirometry obtained according to the recommendations published by the American Thoracic Society (ATS) and the European Respiratory Society (ERS) in 2007 healthy 7-year school. Objective: To determine reference values for forced spirometry in healthy schoolchildren aged 7 years under the recommendations of the ATS / ERS of the urban area of the city of Cuenca, 2013. Material and Methods: A descriptive study in healthy male and female children under 7 years. Forced spirometry was performed at children taken at different educational establishments in the city of Cuenca randomly. And the recommendations of the ATS / ERS were followed. Results: About 142 children studied (71 boys and 71 girls) spirometric variables have a Gaussian distribution is set neperiana after logarithmic transformation. Spirometric variables relate to sex, weight and height. The equations obtained: FVC = -1.27 + 0.0136 + 0.0232 weight size - 0,141 sex. FEV1 = -1.12 + 0.0111 + 0.0215 weight size - 0,131 sex. FEF25 = -1.47 + 0.0255 + 0.0353 weight size - 0,247 sex. FEF50 = 0.14 + 0.0079 + 0.0187 weight size - 0.0963 sex. FEF75 = 0.32 + 0.0123 + 0.0083 weight size - 0,177 sex. The regression equation is ratio = 103 to 0.039 weight - size 0,052 - 0,876 sex. Sex influences FVC, FEV1, FEF25 and FEF75; weight influences FVC and FEV1, height influences FVC, FEV1 and FEF25. Conclusions: Obtained: CVF: male: 1.69; female: 1.60. FEV1: male: 1.59; female: 1.50. FEV1/FVC ratio: male: 95.1; woman. 94.1; FEF25 %: male: 3.12; women: 2.96: FEF50 %: male: 0.55 female: 2.41. FEF75 %: male: 1.43; female: 1.28. KEYWORDS: REFERENCE VALUES. FORCED EXPIRATORY VOLUME, SPIROMETRY, CHILD, CUENCA - ECUADOR

    Espirometria forzada en escolares sanos de 8 años bajo las recomendaciones de la ATS/ERS del área urbana de la Ciudad de Cuenca, 2013
    (Universidad de Cuenca, 2014-11-11) Nieto Cañizares, Juana Priscila; Ron Encalada, Edgar Santiago; Arévalo Peláez, Carlos Eduardo
    INTRODUCTION: In Cuenca there are no reference values for forced spirometry in school 8 years as recommended by the ATS (American Thoracic Society) (16) and ERS (European Respiratory Society). The aim of the study was to determine the values of spirometry in healthy 8-year-old schoolchildren. MATERIAL AND METHODS:. Sectional design in Cuenca since March 2013 to September 2013 In healthy school 8 years, forced spirometry was performed in 14 randomized schools with a standardized protocol conducting examinations. RESULTS: Spirometry can be performed under the guidelines of the ATS and ERS. We had a total of 137 spirometry which 72 were girls with average size of 126.4 cm and weight 28Kg and for children with a total of 65 with average size of 125.8 cm and weight of 27Kg. Spirometric variables that best be assessed FEV1 and FVC are for girls and FEV1 for children. Taking for FVC in girls with minimum and maximum values of 1.31 and 2.54 respectively with average and standard deviation of 1.78 ± 0.27 for FEV1 1.67 average with a standard deviated from ± 0, 23; while for children with FEV1 values: with minimum and maximum of 1.30 and 2.42 respectively and with an average and a standard deviation of 1.83 ± 0.25. The value of height was the one who had a real correlation with spirometric values in both girls and boys.

    This intervention -action study, was realized to 300 mothers who attended the birth in Vicente Corral Moscoso Hospital. The objectives were to assess the knowledge, attitudes and practices of umbilical cord care, used for data collection pre -caps, an educational proposal, and a post -caps. It was hypothesized that educational interventions modify the knowledge, attitudes and practices about cord care, we have acquired the knowledge level of the mothers of the umbilical cord should fall between 5 to 15 days increased from 69.7% to 98.3%, in that the cord should be clean and dry typically 96.7% to 99.7 %, in that the benefit of the alcohol is to prevent infections 77.7% to 95.7% as poor cord care causes infections from 83% to 97.7%. Attitudes that should not cover the cord increased from 39% to 93.3%, which it should be clean for 3 to 5 days after his fall from 57.3% to 95% and you should not wrap the clamp 93.3% 61.7%. As for practices that lead to the child 's doctor if you notice redness around the cord observed an increase of 93.3% to 99.7%, from 82.3% to 99.3% who would look at him with alcohol, 96% to 100% that before cleaning would wash the hands and from 81.3% to 98.3% which would clean 2 to 3 times per day. Then we can say that if you changed the educational intervention knowledge of the mothers, thus proving the hypothesis.

This is an intervention study-action on the adequate knowledge about the nutritious sucking techniques and non-nutritive. This is an intervention study-action on the adequate knowledge about the nutritive sucking techniques and non-nutritive. It was attended by 46 students of fifth and seventh semester of the area of early stimulation, distributed according to gender in 97.8 % (n= 45) female and 2.2 % (n= 1) using a male precaps. A training was applied on the techniques of non-nutritive sucking and nutritious, was evaluated by the application of a questionnaire before and after of the knowledge acquired. For the description of qualitative variables was calculated frequency and percentage and inferential analysis to the chi-square test was used and p-value (< 0.05) to identify the increase in their knowledge of each issue that is raised. After the intervention students of stimulation successfully increased their knowledge of a 19.6 % (n= 9) in the precaps to a 89.1 % (n= 41) in the postcaps in levels of satisfactory and very satisfactory. The educational proposal for students and the material produced intervention constituted an efficient alternative to improve the attitudes and practices of students on the techniques of suction.

    (Universidad de Cuenca, 2010-11-11) Ron Encalada, Edgar Santiago; Quito Riera, Lauro Bolívar; Encalada Torres, Lorena Esperanza
    Objective: Determination of immigration impact at the mental health of children and adolescents left behind at the country. Methodology: A transversal study was developed in a sample of 450 students aged 6 to 16 years old in Gualaceo province of Azuay (2009). The sample was made for systemic randomized method. The SDQ test was used to mental health diagnosis. The prevalence reason (PR) with IC 95% and square Chi were used for finding statistical association between immigration and mental pathology. Results: The prevalence of mental illness was higher in immigrant´s children (30%) More than 50% of immigration was paternal for a period longer than 5 years. The children aged 6 to 10 years with immigration showed higher prevalence of mental problems (35%). The highest mental problem prevalence at immigrant´s children was the behavioral disorder (54.5%). Children aged 11 to 16 years at immigrant´s group the higher prevalence was the emotional disorder (41.7%). Conclusion: Immigrants children have two times higher probability to have emotional disorders, behaviors disorders, peer relationships problems than non immigrants children (p<0.001-0.008). The hyperactivity and prosocial behavior did not show association with immigration. The immigration increases the prevalence of mental pathology whereas there were not specific association with the time of immigration and the migrated progenitor. Do not have immigration is a protective factor to the development of mental pathology.
