Esta investigación se centra en analizar signos vitales de distintas patologías, recreadas por medio de simuladores tipo maniquíes, para generar un diagnóstico rápido y efectivo mediante el monitoreo en casa durante una emergencia sanitaria como COVID-19. Se utiliza un modelo de analítica de datos descriptivo (CRISP-DM), para examinar el comportamiento de los signos vitales, mediante la creación de una herramienta de visualización interactiva. Esta herramienta tiene por cada signo vital una gráfica que permite examinar su comportamiento y tener así una visión general del estado de salud del paciente. Además, presenta la gráfica de variación de los signos vitales de forma agrupada para identificar y analizar el instante en que los valores sobrepasan los parámetros de normalidad. En conclusión, la herramienta desarrollada aquí es un soporte visual e interactivo para los profesionales de la salud que permite tomar decisiones informadas, ayudando a potenciar el esquema tradicional de servicios hospitalarios para prevenir complicaciones en la salud de los pacientes.

“…There are several Colombian territories with difficult access that have not been intervened by the health services after the implementation of the Colombian peace agreement and the National Rural Health Plan (PNSR) [ 1 , 2 ]. Recently, significant advances have been made studying vulnerable rural-populations and how the displacement generated by the Colombian armed conflict has affected the life settings of these communities [ 3 – 6 ].…”

The aim of this study was to measure the prevalence of gastrointestinal parasites (GI) in domestic animals and children in high mountain populations in the districts of Combia and Toche, Valle del Cauca–Colombia. These communities have been affected by the armed conflict in Colombia and are susceptible to health risk factors related to the Colombian post-conflict. Prevalence and risk factors were measured using Bayesian methods on 45 structured interviews applied to 29 families in Combia and 16 in Toche. This inquire aimed to analyze the socio-economic and demographic factors associated with the presence of parasites. This interview was conducted with 50 children: 40 (80%) from Rita Sabogal school district of Toche, and 10 (20%) from Tablones—Atanasio Girardot schools. 23 faecal samples from asymtomatic children from these schools were collected. Subsequently, 308 animals were characterized through the analysis of 64 faecal samples from asymptomatic individuals (20,8%); 18/41 from dogs (43,9%), 18/175 from poultry (10,3%), 7/13 from cats 56,84%, 6/20 from equines (30%) and from 15/59 cattle (25,43%). The prevalence of intestinal parasites among children under six years was 60% [95% PI = 41%-78%]; Endolimax nana , 24% [95% PI = 9,8%-42%]; Iodamoeba buetschlii , 16% [95% PI = 4,7%-32%]; Entamoeba coli , 35% [95% PI = 18%-55%]; Giardia lamblia , 12% [95% PI = 2,7%-27%]. In Equids the presence of Strongylus spp was 37% [95% PI = 10%-71%]; Parascaris equorum , 37% [95% PI = 10%-71%]; in dogs, Dipylidium caninum was 20% [95% PI = 6%-39%]; Trichuris trichiura , 9% [95% PI = 1,3%-26%]; Toxocara canis , 25% [95% PI = 9%-46%]; in cats, Toxocara cati had a prevalence of 44% [95% PI = 16%-75%]; cyst of Eimeria spp, 15% [95% PI = 3,4%-33%]; in poultry and Eimeria zuernii in cattle, 50% [95% PI = 23%-77%]. There was no association with exposure of humans to animal parasites. However, we conclude that female and children under 6 years of age are more likely OR (6,72–2,3) to get parasites.
