Item “Edema agudo de pulmón secundario a infección por influenza”(Carrera de Medicina, 2019-06-01) Pérez Plaza, Santiago Andrés; Cruz Castillo, Yessenia Magaly, Dra. Esp.Pneumonia is pulmonary parenchymal infection, very prevalent and with high morbidity and mortality. This pathology can be typical or atypical. The etiology of pneumonia must be determined. Acute pulmonary edema is an abnormal accumulation of fluid, of rapid development, in pulmonary extravascular components. It can be cardiogenic and non-cardiogenic. We review the non-cardiogenic acute pulmonary edema, which is due to a pulmonary injury. We present the case of an Influenza B infection with pulmonary edema and respiratory system in a 40-year-old male patient, which presents with brown expectoration, thermal rise, odynophagia, dyspnea and myalgias. Presents desaturation, bilateral cottony infiltrates in the imaging tests. A PAFI ratio of 220 mmHg is determined, which indicates an acute respiratory distraction syndrome, which does not require mechanical ventilation. A rapid test is performed that indicates the presence of Influenza B. The treatment used, including antibiotic therapy, antivirals, analgesia, oxygen therapy, beta-2 agonists and anticholinergics was effective, as the patient's clinical picture improved daily. The treatment was in accordance with the bibliographic suggestions investigated.Item Efecto del Tratamiento Fisioterapéutico mediante Drenaje Postural en pacientes mayores de 65 años con enfermedades respiratorias en el Hospital Provincial General Latacunga(Universidad Técnica de Ambato-Facultad de Ciencias de la Salud-Carrera Terapia Física, 2016-03-01) Borja Parra, Carmen Lucia; García Gonzáles, Iván Dr.This research is analytic case-control, the type of relationship between the variables and analysis of the results provided by the postural drainage by which we focus on the possible solution, directing us to discover the benefits of postural drainage and physiotherapy to expiratory diseases. To do this research was taken as universe 31 patients over 65 years of age entered the period of time that was delimited for the study. Nowadays are many risk factors that increases respiratory diseases, some of them little or nothing related to the snuff among the most emphasis have air pollution. Inhalation of dust and chemicals such as fungicides, insecticides and fertilizers are commonly used in the workplace. Based on the use of different positions and postural drainage works with gravity to thus favor the displacement of secretions that are attached to the bronchial walls, towards the large airways from which disposal is facilitated by cough. To conclude by epidemiological characterization made directly to patients was determined that people from over 65 years of age are predisposing to respiratory diseases factors, female sex was predominant 55%, irregular or any physical activity or present a high percent, predominantly rural to urban origin and the most common diseases they were pneumonia and tuberculosis.
