    EVALUACIÓN DE LA CONFIABILIDAD DE LA METODOLOGÍA MANUAL FRENTE A LA METODOLOGÍA AUTOMATIZADA EN LA IDENTIFICACIÓN DE CÁNDIDA ALBICANS
    (Universidad Técnica de Ambato / Facultad de Ciencias de Salud / Centro de Posgrados, 2024-10-01) Torres Valdez, Lissette Estefanía; Guangasig Toapanta, Víctor Hernán
    Candida albicans is the main species related to most superficial and deep infections caused by yeasts, therefore it is necessary to have tests that are fast and accurate for timely microbiological identification through the reliability of both manual methodologies and automated methodologies such as the VITEK system and thus establish which is the best option to use in the laboratory, THE objective was to evaluate the reliability of manual methodology versus automated methodology in the identification of Candida albicans. The methodology used was a cross-sectional observational analytical study, with a quantitative approach since data collection was used based on numerical measurement and statistical analysis, it is non-experimental, according to the chronology the research is prospective, the inclusion and exclusion criteria were analyzed. The results were as follows: from 100 microbiological samples of fungi where 82% (n=82) corresponds to isolates of the albicans species, 18% corresponds to other species, which are: tropicalis (n=10), glabrata (n=5) and parapsilosis (n=3), was isolated in 82 samples of the microorganism to be identified of which it is observed that 73. 17% were isolated from vaginal secretion samples, 10.98% from skin secretions, 8.54% from seminal secretions, and 3.66% from oral and intestinal secretions. Of the total of 82 positive samples for Candida albicans, the conventional method (CHROMagar) and the automated method (VITEK) gave 70 correct identifications of the yeast and one incorrect identification of the yeast. On the other hand, CHROMagar identified 3 positive results that VITEK did not and VITEK identified 8 positive results that CHROMagar failed, the Kappa statistic (κ),. κ =0.093 indicates that there is a slight concordance between the CHROMagar and VITEK methods. The results indicate that there is no statistically significant agreement between the CHROMagar and VITEK methods for identifying Candida albicans. The odds ratios suggest some level of association, based on the Kappa statistic, an acceptable to moderate agreement between the two methods is proposed..

    “Construcción de formato de enfermería para la mejora de la metodología de enseñanza aprendizaje del proceso de atención de enfermería”
    (Universidad Técnica de Ambato - Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud - Carrera de Enfermería, 2019-02-01) Acosta Yansapanta, Estefanía Alexandra; Lic. Mg. Fernández Nieto, Miriam Ivonne
    The research project with the theme "Construction of nursing format for the improvement of the teaching-learning methodology of the nursing care process" which was carried out in the nursing career of the UTA, whose main objective is "Elaborate and validate an appropriate format that allows the improvement of the teaching-learning process in the students of the nursing career ". The type of research was quantitative, therefore, sampling is not applied since it works with the total population, in which nursing graduates who work as teachers in this institution participated, applying the assessment format to students from the fourth semester to the ninth semester of the nursing career of the academic year September 2018-February 2019. The validation survey was applied to the teachers of the race, after the format was applied to the students who meet the requirements and knowledge necessary to develop said assessment instrument. When performing the association of variables it was determined that the validation and application of the P.A.E. format, helps to improve the teaching-learning process, since it is an instrument that helps students to have critical, analytical and logical thinking, it also influences the daily work as nurses, and when applying the statistical test not for chi-square metric the hypothesis is accepted, concluding that the assessment format of the nursing care process is applicable for the improvement of the teaching-learning methodology in the nursing career of the Technical University of Ambato.
