“…Despite that, until August 2021, more than 164 million people worldwide were infected [4], complicating the entire health system and exposing the health crisis in Peru. [5] Given the lack of medical equipment and the few health facilities in the country [6], many patients were treated from home without the constant monitoring of a doctor [7], using the pulse oximeter for continuous monitoring of their oxygen saturation and heart rate because the main symptom presented by patients with COVID-19 was the low concentration of oxygen in the blood or hypoxemia [8], causing respiratory failure in patients. On the other hand, continuous monitoring of oxygen saturation and heart rate with the pulse oximeter is essential for the non-invasive diagnosis of patients with lung or cardiovascular diseases, as it shows two of the most critical vital signs of the human body with an instant measurement [9].…”

COVID-19 changed the way people live, causing a high mortality rate and making the entire health system in the world difficult due to the lack of equipment and infrastructure, causing many people to be treated from home, constantly measuring their saturation level and heart rate with the help of a pulse oximeter, since the virus directly affects the respiratory system, it has been added that people with lung or cardiovascular problems also have to perform the constant measurement of both vital signs to visualize that they are in a normal range, otherwise, they would have to attend a medical center, so it is important to monitor both vital signs. In view of this problem, in this article a monitoring system of oxygen saturation and heart rate was carried out by mobile application, in such a way that both vital signs can be constantly monitored and an alert can be given to the health center with the coordinates of the person when the system detects a measurement outside the normal range, with this, it would help people who may need medical attention immediately, being able to save their lives. Through the development of the monitoring system, it was possible to observe the operation of the mobile application with an efficiency of 99.15% in monitoring the level of oxygen saturation and 98.78% in monitoring the heart rate, taking 4 seconds to send the alert to the health center to assist the patient.

“…Pulsioximetría: es un método no invasivo que sirve para determinar la saturación de oxígeno del paciente, es decir, que cantidad de hemoglobina está transportando oxígeno en sangre (37) Inflamación: es una respuesta de los tejidos frente a las infecciones y al daño tisular donde las células inmunitarias pasan de la circulación hacia los tejidos para erradicar al patógeno invasor (38).…”

Objetivo: Determinar los factores asociados a la severidad de las crisis asmáticas en pacientes pediátricos del Hospital Regional de Ica en el periodo 2021. Materiales y métodos: El estudio tuvo un diseño observacional, analítico, transversal y retrospectivo. La población estuvo conformada por los pacientes pediátricos que presentaron crisis asmáticas (N=493). La muestra se calculó con una fórmula para poblaciones con marco muestral conocido (n=150). El análisis principal de la investigación fue de tipo bivariado utilizando la prueba Chi2 de Pearson con un nivel de confianza del 95%. Resultados: Entre los hallazgos se observó que la edad pediátrica promedio fue de 9 años y eran del sexo masculino en el 64,7%. Se evidenció también que el 75,3% tuvo crisis en el último año y el 38% presentó faringoamigdalitis como infección agregada. El procesamiento analítico mostró p-valor menores a 0,05 entre el antecedente de ingreso a UCI, crisis en el último año, infecciones agregadas, anemia, tipo de parto, prematuridad y bajo peso al nacer y no lactancia materna exclusiva. Conclusiones: Se concluye que existen factores pediátricos y maternos asociados a la severidad de las crisis asmáticas en pacientes pediátricos del Hospital Regional de Ica en el periodo 2021.
