Objetivo. Describir el impacto del nuevo modelo de actuación que Paraguay implementó en cincos distritos de la Región Central en el último trimestre del 2023, con base en una estrategia integrada desde los servicios de salud para recuperar coberturas con la vacuna trazadora en menores de un año (pentavalente hasta abril del 2023 y hexavalente desde entonces), y la vacuna contra sarampión, parotiditis y rubéola (SPR) para la población de un año. Método. Estudio descriptivo de corte transversal con análisis comparativo entre el período previo (semanas epidemiológicas [SE] 1 y 34 de 2023) y posterior (SE 35 y 52 de 2023) a la intervención de tres indicadores: a) coberturas con las tres dosis de pentavalente o hexavalente, y primera y segunda dosis de SPR; b) productividad en la administración de la tercera dosis de pentavalente o hexavalente y; c) tasas de deserción en la vacunación con pentavalente o hexavalente y SPR. Resultados. Con la intervención, la cobertura promedio semanal con la tercera dosis de pentavalente o hexavalente fue de 1,2%, con un incremento del promedio de 1,0% registrado preintervención. En comparación con el 2022, en el 2023 se incrementó la cobertura con la tercera dosis de vacuna pentavalente o hexavalente en 3,5%, mientras que el incremento con la primera y la segunda dosis de SPR fue de 32,7% y 4%, respectivamente. El promedio de dosis semanales de la tercera dosis de pentavalente o hexavalente se incrementó a 257, y superó las 215 dosis que se administraban previo a la intervención. La tasa de deserción con vacuna pentavalente o hexavalente pasó de 17,9% a 9,2%, mientras que la de SPR pasó de 55,0% a 46,5%. Conclusión. La implementación del nuevo modelo de actuación impactó positivamente en los indicadores, logrando detener la tendencia descendente de coberturas de vacunación registrados en los últimos años.

Objetivo. Identificar en la literatura las evidencias sobre las prácticas de participación y empoderamiento comunitario desarrolladas en la atención primaria en salud en América Latina. Método. Revisión de alcance con base en la lista de verificación siguiendo la Lista de verificación de los elementos de notificación preferidos para las revisiones sistemáticas y la ampliación de los metaanálisis (PRISMA-ScR, por su sigla en inglés). La revisión se realizó en marzo del 2024 en las bases de datos de la Biblioteca Digital de la Librería Científica Electrónica en línea (SciELO, por su sigla en inglés), Literatura Latinoamericana y del Caribe en Ciencias de la Salud (LILACS) y PubMed (MEDLINE). Los resultados obtenidos en todas las bases de datos se exportaron a la plataforma Mendeley®, y se los presentó de forma descriptiva. Resultados. Se seleccionaron trece estudios. Los países donde se desarrollaron los estudios fueron Brasil, Chile, Colombia y México. Se identificaron prácticas de participación y empoderamiento comunitario en dos grandes contextos, el institucional y el social. En el contexto institucional se destacan la capacitación de los profesionales de la salud y el desarrollo de grupos educativos para la población. En el contexto social se destacan la visita domiciliaria y acciones comunitarias. Conclusiones. Las prácticas institucionales de participación y empoderamiento comunitario tienen un gran potencial para mejorar la salud y el bienestar de las poblaciones. Sin embargo, es necesario abordar los desafíos existentes como la falta de recursos, la capacitación del personal y la participación comunitaria. Se requiere un enfoque integral que combine acciones a nivel institucional, comunitario e individual para lograr un impacto sostenible en el empoderamiento comunitario.

Foundation: atherosclerosis is a disease of multifactorial origin with great genetic and family dependence, susceptible to aggravation depending on the lifestyle and the influence of the environment on the person. Objective: to describe the prevalence of risk factors and diseases resulting from atherosclerosis and the relationship between them. Method: a descriptive cross-sectional study was carried out from January 2022 to March 2023 in medical office #5 of the Lawton Teaching Polyclinic.

La educación continua de los equipos de salud es imprescindible para garantizar resultados que tengan un efecto positivo en la salud de la comunidad. En el 2019, a través del Ministerio de Salud Pública y Asistencia Social (MISPAS), República Dominicana inició la implementación de la iniciativa HEARTS de la Organización Panamericana de la Salud (OPS). De esta manera, se alineó con las mejores prácticas mundiales para la prevención y el manejo de la hipertensión y las enfermedades cardiovasculares (ECV), y así reducir las tasas de mortalidad debida a esta enfermedad no transmisible (ENT). De hecho, la hipertensión es la principal causa de ECV, y la ECV es la ENT responsable de más muertes en el mundo. El personal médico pasante de República Dominicana tiene la enorme labor de diagnosticar y tratar de manera oportuna a las personas con presión arterial alta y diversos factores de riesgo cardiovascular. Por lo tanto, la capacitación y formación de los estudiantes de pregrado previo a ejercer funciones como médicos pasantes, representa una prioridad en el sistema de salud del país. La iniciativa HEARTS ha producido una serie de cursos virtuales de alta calidad, gratuitos y disponibles todo el año en la plataforma del Campus Virtual de Salud Pública de la OPS. Estos cursos constituyen una oportunidad singular para que las escuelas de medicina adheridas a la Asociación Dominicana de Facultades y Escuelas de Medicina (ADOFEM), a través de un acuerdo con el MISPAS, utilicen el e-learning como herramienta innovadora y poderosa de entrenamiento de los miembros del equipo de salud.

This study examines the relationship between organizational climate and job performance among primary healthcare workers, employing a mixed-method approach that integrates both quantitative and qualitative methodologies. A questionnaire using Likert scale questions was employed to assess key dimensions of organizational climate, including motivation, organizational structure, leadership, training, communication, and infrastructure. The findings reveal that motivation and organizational structure were the highest-rated dimensions, while infrastructure was identified as the weakest, indicating a lack of necessary resources for adequate task performance within the hospital. Despite these limitations, a high level of job performance (87.9%) was reported. Among the dimensions of organizational climate, motivation showed a strong correlation (a = 0.602) with job performance, while other dimensions such as leadership and communication exhibited moderate correlations. The lowest correlation was observed in infrastructure (a = 0.305), suggesting that despite inadequate physical resources, staff continue to perform efficiently. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Este artículo aborda las opciones de tratamiento para el insomnio crónico en adultos, poniendo énfasis en la necesidad de un enfoque integral y personalizado. El tratamiento debe considerar no solo las causas subyacentes, sino también las características individuales de cada paciente, sus preferencias y su contexto. Examinamos tanto las estrategias farmacológicas, que incluyen el uso de medicamentos como benzodiacepinas y fármacos no benzodiacepínicos, como las terapias no farmacológicas. El texto destaca la importancia de adaptar los tratamientos a las necesidades específicas de cada paciente, reconociendo que no existe una solución única. Este enfoque flexible y centrado en la persona busca no solo aliviar los síntomas del insomnio, sino también prevenir sus efectos negativos en la salud mental y física, promoviendo una mejora integral en la calidad de vida.
