Oxygen Saturation and Heart Rate Monitoring System by Mobile

COVID-19 changed the way people live, causing a high mortality rate and making the entire health system in the world difficult due to the lack of equipment and infrastructure, causing many people to be treated from home, constantly measuring their saturation level and heart rate with the help of a pulse oximeter,  since the virus directly affects the respiratory system, it has been added that people with lung or cardiovascular problems also have to perform the constant measurement of both vital signs to visualize that they are in a normal range, otherwise, they would have to attend a medical center, so it is important to monitor both vital signs. In view of this problem, in this article a monitoring system of oxygen saturation and heart rate was carried out by mobile application, in such a way that both vital signs can be constantly monitored and an alert can be given to the health center with the coordinates of the person when the system detects a measurement outside the normal range,  with this, it would help people who may need medical attention immediately, being able to save their lives. Through the development of the monitoring system, it was possible to observe the operation of the mobile application with an efficiency of 99.15% in monitoring the level of oxygen saturation and 98.78% in monitoring the heart rate, taking 4 seconds to send the alert to the health center to assist the patient

Anxiety and fear of COVID-19 among shantytown dwellers in the megacity of Lima

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic is not only having a negative impact on individuals’ physical health, but also on their mental health. Particularly, people living in disadvantaged communities in the developing world have been hit the hardest by the pandemic. They live precariously and are more vulnerable to mental health issues. Objective: In this study, we have evaluated COVID-19-related anxiety and fear and the predictors associated with them among shantytown dwellers in the Peruvian capital. Methods: This is a cross-sectional study in which 816 shantytown dwellers participated. Anxiety and fear of the virus were assessed using the Corona Anxiety Scale (CAS) and the Fear of COVID-19 Scale. Also, sociodemographic data were collected. Results: Stable and occasional workers were more likely to show the anxiety about the virus, whereas older adults presented higher levels of fear of COVID-19. Shantytown dwellers who were single, female, unemployed, had a relative at home who was infected with COVID-19 before the fieldworker’s visit, and had a relative who died of the virus were more likely to display anxiety and fear of COVID-19. Conclusion: Targeted interventions should be made available to slum dwellers promptly when needed, to help them cope with their mental health problems and prevent dire consequences such as domestic violence and suicidal tendencies.Background: The COVID-19 pandemic is not only having a negative impact on individuals’ physical health, but also on their mental health.

Management of an Automatic System to Generate Reports on the Attendance Control of Teachers in a Educational Center

Many countries were affected by the appearance of SARS-COV-2 that was spreading rapidly, causing damage to humanity and causing a global crisis, this generated a generalized quarantine to avoid the physical approaches recommended by the health system, affecting all students in the world, since it was wanted to avoid forming foci of contagion in educational centers,  for this reason, some automated systems that are marketed in the markets were applied to combat the pandemic in educational centers, but they are inefficient when registering the work attendance of teachers, causing loss of time in the registration process and causing an agglomeration of people due to the failure in the registration process,  in addition to not allowing to manage the reports of the teacher's work attendance. In view of this problem, in this article the management of an automatic system was carried out to generate reports on the attendance control of the teaching staff in the educational center and control the working hours of each teacher to be visualized through a user interface, being able to control the labor discipline of each teacher since all the records will be stored in a database. Through the development of the system, it was observed that the system works effectively since an efficiency of 98.87% was obtained in its operation to control the time of entry and exit of each teacher, being an accepted value since the process is conducted safely

Comparison of Social Skills of Nursing Students from Two Universities of Lima

Social competences in nursing students refers to the set of behaviors or abilities acquired by the nursing student, but they do not fully demonstrate or express their skills or competences, opinions for fear of negative comments and/or if it is correct or not. Finally, the students put their social skills into practice in each situation they face every day, therefore the research objective is to compare the social skills of nursing students from two universities in Lima. It is a quantitative, non-experimental, descriptive, and cross-sectional study, with a total population of 487 nursing students from two universities in Lima, who answered a questionnaire on sociodemographic aspects and the Gismero Social Skills Scale of 33 items. In the results, we observe that the total of nursing students from both Lima universities, 210 (43.1%) of the nursing students present high social skills and 277 (56.9%) present medium social skills. It is concluded that students demonstrate their social skills that they will later do in the workplace, so it is necessary to implement subjects on social skills that generate mental strengthening in students

Pre-analytical errors in the phlebotomy process in a national hospital in Lima

Errors in the clinical laboratory are very frequent, most of which are mostly during the pre-analytical phase. That is why this research work proposes the identification of pre-analytical errors in the external office area of the Dos de Mayo National Hospital. To do this, a form was applied, filled out by the researcher at the time of supervision of the sampling. The instrument was validated by the joint recommendations of the EFLM-COLABIOCLI (European Federation of Clinical Chemistry and Laboratory Medicine) and the Latin American Working Group of the Pre-Analytical Phase (WG-PRE-LATAM) of the Latin American Confederation of Clinical Biochemistry. It was obtained as a result, among the most outstanding, that more than 90% of the patient was not recommended to rest for 5 minutes at the end of the phlebotomy, 80% did not register the identity of the phlebotomist in the request for examinations, in 40% there was a poor homogenization of the tubes, about 12% did not instruct the patient to apply pressure at the extraction site and 10% the barcode was not labeled in the presence of the tubes of the patient. It is concluded that the sampling personnel, phlebotomists, should follow the established standards and reinforce the previous knowledge through continuous supervision by the health personnel and pathologist.Campus Lima Nort

Automatic System for Detecting Pathologies in the Respiratory System for the Care of Patients with Bronchial Asthma Visualized by Computerized Radiography

COVID-19 is a disease that directly affects the respiratory tract, being harmful in asthmatic patients because this condition causes a lack of oxygen, even to the extent that it requires external equipment to combat drowning. Likewise, it highlights the importance of maintaining a treatment or therapy correctly to prevent your disease from worsening or being exposed to other diseases, putting your health at risk. The diseases that asthmatic patients can acquire can result from pathologies, which have been growing over the years due to lack of equipment or efficient examinations that generate complete information about respiratory conditions about asthmatic patients, therefore, by developing an advanced system, the chances of detecting pathologies prematurely increase considerably,  which is an essential tool today. According to the problem exposed, in this research an automatic system of detection of pathologies in the respiratory system was carried out for the care of the patient with bronchial asthma visualized by computerized radiography, so that any pathology can be detected by means of a premature diagnosis in the respiratory system and the doctor can perform a correct treatment on the asthmatic patient. Through the tests carried out by the system, its performance was accurate and efficient, being suitable to be implemented in various hospitals so that the doctor can treat the disease in time, since the system presented a 98.79% efficiency in the detection of pathologies
