Implementación de un sistema de gestión De seguridad alimentaria en un centro de Elaboración de fórmulas lácteas infantiles de un Hospital público pediátrico de alta complejidad

Abstract

The nutrition provided by the hospital's nutrition services represents a fundamental pillar in the recovery and maintenance of hospitalized patient's health. On the other hand, when we talk about safety, we think of a food that does not pose any risk to human health, which is undoubtedly connected to the term quality. To ensure this, a number of factors have to be considered that influence the food chain. The purpose of this work was to present a projective research of potentialities, which is not being approved in the Center for the Development of Infant Milk Formulas of a hospital of high complexity, promoting the application of the principles of the theory of management of quality, as the first stage focused on safety assurance, through a food safety management system. The Center's overall compliance with good manufacturing practices only reached 49 %. The highest degree of noncompliance was associated with the size of the organization and administration by 80 %. It was possible to systematically improve the information collected from the new documents designed and incorporated in the database suitable for later analysis, such that a better and more efficient decision-making is possible for those responsible for the center as well as the projection of future demands. In addition, we incorporated the cleaning products suitable for use in the food industry, the redesign of the process of the manufacture of formulas and dust systems and the safety assurance of production through the HACCP system. According to the results of the analysis obtained, the implementation of such a system guarantees the safety of the food and the quality of the service provided.

Obesidad y su relación con la lactancia materna: Revisión narrativa

“…A pesar de que muchos laboratorios han intentado encontrar la fórmula adecuada para compensar o igualar los nutrientes de la LMH a la actualidad no es totalmente recomendable abandona la lactancia materna antes de los 6 meses de vida debido a que la fórmula láctea no cuenta con todos los beneficios de la LMH; no obstante, esta puede ser sustituida en casos de emergencia como enfermedad grave en la madre o el niño que requieren de hospitalización por patologías o uso de fármacos que no son compatibles con la LMH (47,48,49). Bajo esa perspectiva y la búsqueda de una fórmula adecuada en conjunto con las tecnologías aplicadas ha permitido la elaboración de fórmulas orientadas a equipar el alimento de la LMH las cuales tienen el objetivo de aportar aproximadamente 67 kilocalorías por cada 100 mililitros de fórmula ingerida lo cual se acerca al aporte nutricional de la LMH, pero no iguala el grado nutricional que esta última aporta.…”
