    (2021-01-26) Díaz Correa, Lizeth María; Acosta Garces, Janelis; Montañez Rubiano, Silvia Yolanda; Amador Ahumada, Concepción
    Introduction: Concern for patient safety became a priority problem in emergency medicine and specifically in intensive care units (ICU) and renal units. Therefore, there are a number of circumstances that make the system even more vulnerable to error. Objective: To analyze the information available about the patient safety policy in renal units in order to suggest actions that allow strengthening the patient safety policy. Methodology: The type of study is descriptive, observational, monograph type of analysis of experiences. This method is suitable for the study because it allowed to focus the social and human perspective of the patients of the renal units. The corresponding population for this monograph was a total of 119 consulted bibliographic references, from the following databases: articles in academic Google, in Scielo, PROQUEST, and documentary materials obtained from the databases of the Ministry of Health and Social Protection. Results: the information collected allows us to appreciate that the incidence of adverse events in patients with CKD varies in different studies, as well as in the use of different methods in their treatment. The impact that adverse events have on patients, the economic burden they imply for health services and the available evidence on measures to prevent them, have warned about the importance of including patient safety on the health policy agenda. Conclusions: In the development of hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis, patients are exposed to adverse events generating a cost for the renal unit and the health system; It is for this need that the implementation of the patient safety policy is proposed and the patient safety policy is promulgated, through the design of an adverse event management system, adaptation of safe institutional and healthcare practices, socialization, dissemination and feedback of the patient safety policy.

    (2022-02-22) Beltrán Garay, Katty Margarita; López Ortiz, María Camila; Amador Ahumada, Concepción; Valencia Jimenez, Nydia Ninna
    Introduction: Dengue is a viral disease, transmitted by the Aedes aegypti female mosquito which affects all people, in any part of the world, becoming one of the main causes of mortality from vector-borne diseases; This mosquito is from warm areas such as the department of Córdoba, where different populations, such as the indigenous community of Momil, have a high risk of getting sick of dengue, due to the permanent exposure of the community to this type of arthropods. Objective: To show the uses of herbal medicine as an alternative for the treatment of dengue in the members of an indigenous community in Córdoba, so that health professionals are able to provide them health care according to their needs. Materials and methods: Descriptive exploratory study with a qualitative and micro ethnographic approach, the results will be obtained through a semi-structured interview, emphasizing general knowledge about dengue and the use of herbal medicine for the treatment of dengue, the guide of questions were applied to 20 participants of the Indigenous Council of Momil. Results: the participants of the study showed limited knowledge about the mosquito that transmits the disease; regarding dengue, it was classified as basic or medium-level knowledge, which is sufficient and important to protect themselves against the disease. In the same way, it was found that they know and practice different alternative methods for vector control and pathology treatment, making use of the different medicinal plants found in the region. Conclusions: Indigenous people live in a dengue risk area, however, they use different techniques to minimize the reproduction of the mosquito, which is why it is determined that they have protective factors. Along the same line, it was identified that indigenous people have extensive knowledge regarding the use of medicinal plants for health care, which they use as an alternative method to cure their diseases or treat their symptoms. As a consequence of this, it is considered pertinent to replicate indigenous knowledge, with the purpose of nursing professionals to understand in-depth, value, and strengthen the use of traditional medicine and the art of caring in an integrative and holistic manner.
