    (Universidad de Cuenca. Facultad de Ciencias Médicas, 2015-10) Huiracocha Tutivén, María de Lourdes; Rojas Sulbarán, Rubén Darío; Huiracocha Tutivén, Mirian Sofía
    The children with neurological disorders often have dysphagia, a condition that causes respiratory infection to repetition, malnutrition, poor quality of life, their early diagnosis allow to decide on the best intervention. The videofluoroscopy and videoendoscopia are invasive diagnostic techniques, which are expensive and therefore difficult to make, causing delay in diagnosis and intervention. Today there are new noninvasive medical technologies that can be very effective, one is the cervical auscultation which listens to the sounds of swallowing through a stethoscope or other measuring device such as placing a microphone or an accelerometer on the surface of the neck. This method has the principle that the sound and/or biological normal swallowing movements are different of the abnormal. In this article we review the social relevance, the diagnosis of dysphagia, the clinical applications of the cervical auscultation and the devices used to perform it, which is presented as a basis to establish its potential use for the detection of dysphagia in children with neurodevelopmental problems. These theoretical orientations allow the doctor to have more successful performances in the comprehensive diagnosis of children with neurological dysfunction

There was no a relationship between the etiology of obstetric and gynecological surgeries with pain at 12 and 24 hours (p>0.05). In 25.78% of cases, the morphine analgesia for spinal administration was supplemented using ketorolac intravenously. A 49.2% of patients did not show side effects of these. The most observed were: pruritus (13.14%), urinary retention (11. 3%), nausea (9.8%) and vomiting (6.9%).

Materials and Methods: An experimental study was done in which were included 170 emergency patients from the hospitals “Vicente Corral Moscoso” and “José Carrasco Arteaga”; half of them, underwent the appendectomy with single port (group 1) and the other half underwent the appendectomy with 3 ports (group 2). Results: The most affected age group was between 18 and 25 years, and the male gender predominates in both groups. The operating time of 61-120 minutes was 61.2 % in group 1, in group 2 was 55.3 %.
