Plan de negocio para brindar servicios de reparación y mantenimiento doméstico mediante aplicación móvil

El presente plan de negocio muestra la oportunidad que tenemos sobre una necesidad desatendida: proponer soluciones a los problemas domésticos de mantenimiento y reparación en los campos de cerrajería, gasfitería, electricidad, limpieza e instalación de cámaras de seguridad perimetral. La idea de plasmar este plan surge de observar los hábitos y costumbres de los hogares al contactar y recibir estos servicios de manera informal, insegura y en una relación calidad-precio desequilibrada. Este plan ofrece resolver estas deficiencias apuntando a un sistema formal, garantizado, puntual, seguro y de confianza, donde los datos de nuestros técnicos serán conocidos previamente por el cliente. La investigación de mercado fue realizada mediante: fuentes primarias, a través de una encuesta con una muestra poblacional de los distritos de San Isidro, Surco, San Borja, Miraflores y La Molina, así como un focus group que aterrizó lo recogido en la encuesta; y fuentes secundarias, realizando entrevistas a profundidad a expertos del sector construcción, incubadoras de negocio de startups, empresas creadoras de apps y técnicos formales e informales.Trabajo de investigació

Circulation of a different lineage of dengue virus serotype 2 American / Asian genotype in the Peruvian Amazon, 2010.

Our objective was to determine the genotype of the dengue virus type 2 (DENV-2) that circulated in the Amazon region of Peru between November 2010 and January 2011. We analyzed eight samples collected during dengue surveillance activities in the cities of Iquitos, Yurimaguas, Trujillo, Tarapoto and Lima between November 2010 and January 2011 that were sent to Insitituto Nacional de Salud. The viruses were isolated in C6/36 HT cell line. Viral RNA was extracted and the serotype (RT - PCR multiplex) and genotype (RT-Nested PCR of the region E/NS1) were determined. Finally, the E/ NS1 amplicons were sequenced and analyzed by phylogeny. The phylogenetic analysis revealed the introduction of a different lineage which entered in Peru by the end of 2010. These isolates found in Iquitos and other cities in Peru are closely related to DENV-2 isolates that circulated in Brazil during 2007 and 2008, associated with severe dengue cases and deaths. In conclusion, we detected the introduction of a different lineage of DENV-2 America / Asia genotype in Peru that could be associated with the presence of more severe cases.Instituto Nacional de SaludS

<it>Campylobacter</it> antimicrobial resistance in Peru: a ten-year observational study

Abstract Background Campylobacter jejuni and Campylobacter coli are food-borne pathogens of great importance and feature prominently in the etiology of developing world enteritis and travellers’ diarrhoea. Increasing antimicrobial resistant Campylobacter prevalence has been described globally, yet data from Peru is limited. Our objective was to describe the prevalence trends of fluoroquinolone and macrolide-resistant C. jejuni and C. coli stool isolates from three regions in Peru over a ten-year period. Methods Surveillance for enteric pathogens was conducted in Lima, Iquitos and Cusco between 2001 and 2010. Campylobacter stool isolates were tested for susceptibilities to ciprofloxacin, azithromycin and erythromycin. Susceptibilities were reviewed for 4652 isolates from Lima ( n = 3419), Iquitos ( n = 625) and Cusco ( n = 608). Results Comparing the study periods of 2001-2005 and 2006-2010, prevalence of ciprofloxacin-resistant C. jejuni isolates rose in the study areas of Lima (73.1% to 89.8%, p p C. coli rates also increased in Lima (48.1% to 87.4%, p p = 0.005). Small but significant increases in azithromycin-resistant and erythromycin-resistant C. jejuni prevalence were noted in Iquitos (2.2% to 14.9%, p p = 0.002), and erythromycin-resistant C. coli rates increased in Lima (0.0% to 5.3%, p = 0.038). The prevalence of C. jejuni isolates resistant to both ciprofloxacin and azithromycin increased in Iquitos (0.3% to 14.9%, p C. jejuni isolates resistant to both ciprofloxacin and erythromycin rose in Iquitos (0.0% to 14.9%, p C. coli prevalence increased in Lima (0.0% to 5.3%, p = 0.034). Conclusions These results have implications for the empirical management of enterocolitis in Peru. Ongoing surveillance is essential to guide appropriate antimicrobial use in this setting. Local epidemiological studies to explore the relationship between increasing antimicrobial resistance and agricultural or human antibiotic use may be valuable.</p
