Item Análisis de las tendencias de los trabajos de grado del programa de Atención Prehospitalaria de la USC periodos 1999A - 2023A(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2023) Atehortua Sánchez, Jaider Joel; López Guzmán, Carlos Alberto (Director)Quantitative bibliometric analysis plays an important role in academic research and is particularly significant in the analysis of undergraduate papers, such as dissertations and theses. Bibliometrics involves the quantitative analysis of scholarly publications, including books, theses, and other academic papers. The incorporation of bibliometric analysis in undergraduate work is based on a systematic, data-driven approach to understanding the state of higher education, increasing the depth and rigor of the research, capable of providing valuable information that contributes to the originality, relevance and impact of the research and ultimately to the quality of the work. Universidad Santiago de Cali with the support of its faculty promotes, educates and motivates its students to elaborate degree works, with methodological proposals such as research or monographs. This in order to contribute to the academic development and training of future researchers. All degree works are delivered to the repository of the Santiago Cadena Copete library, which is located at the Pampalinda headquarters. Given the effort and great commitment made by the library, its contribution to information management should be highlighted, but it should also be noted that there were some aspects to be improved, such as the loss of a good amount of degree works in a specific period of time. This loss of information is a consequence of poor storage of the degree works in CD format, as a result of their deterioration.Item Estudio comparativo de las competencias del personal que tripula ambulancias en latinoamérica durante el 2022: Una revisión de alcance(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2022) Arcos Murcia, Evelyn; Linette Caicedo Cantor, Angie; Lopez Guzman, Carlos Alberto (Director)The objective of this research work is to identify, according to the history of prehospital care, which are the competencies that ambulance crews have from the academic field, comparing the subjects offered by each educational institution according to the country, without leaving aside the laws and regulations of the same, in order to recognize the failures or gaps in knowledge that health personnel in Colombia have, the methodology used was non-experimental and with data collection through bibliographic sources. Tables and graphical data will be found for each of the institutions that offer health careers related to prehospital care or that have the knowledge to crew land transport in Latin America, in addition to comparative studies of the curricula with similar subjects and a wide variety of academic plans subject to the regulations of each country, as well, It was identified that countries such as Peru, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Costa Rica and Uruguay have a more specialized curriculum in pediatric emergencies, rescue and trauma, unlike El Salvador which is a nation where an out-of-hospital career is not taught, the purpose is to obtain a clear result of the intellect and capabilities of the personnel who attend medical emergencies in Latin America.Item La importancia de los programas de bienestar en apoyo emocional para el personal de emergencia(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2024) Molina Ruiz, Juan Sebastián; Lucio Herrera, Sara María (Directora)This scoping review is interested in the topic of implementing emotional wellbeing and resilience programs focused on emergency personnel, a group that daily faces stress levels and critical situations in the work environment. The mental health of these professionals becomes a concern. It is essential to develop effective strategies that serve them or provide them with emotional support. In this exploration of existing literature, it is shown that, although initiatives have been taken, there is still a need to implement accessible programs that specifically address the needs of emergency personnel. Relevant interventions for stress management are suggested. Feelings of psychological support and resilience workshops can be very beneficial. Significant barriers to implementation are also identified, such as the lack of initiatives associated with seeking help.Item Promoción de la salud y prevención de la obesidad en estudiantes de tecnología en atención pre hospitalaria: Una revisión de alcance en la universidad Santiago de Cali, 2025(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2025) Sevilla Buritica, María Camila; Garzón Quintero, Ana Sofia; Rivas Velasco, Felipe (Director)Excess weight and obesity are significant risk factors for health, especially in academic environments and university students, this article seeks to demonstrate the importance of health promotion and prevention of obesity in students of Technology in Prehospital Care at the Universidad Santiago de Cali, in order to propose different recommendations to improve the quality of life, quality of care and also to improve this problem. A scope review was carried out using the Prisma methodology and the PCC strategy (population, concept and context), also a selection of information from 50 articles as a basis of the topic, from which 28 articles were selected for the development of this scope review, the other 22 articles were not selected because they did not meet the eligibility criteria of the problem question, In addition, a comparative table was made from the most global according to data and percentages of the WHO (World Health Organization, s.f.) which tells us that 43% of people suffer from overweight and 16% from obesity, consecutively data from Latin America in different countries such as Mexico the figures were 38% overweight and 20% obese, Brazil reported 24.45% overweight and 8.25% obesity and Argentina reported 35.9% overweight and 25.05% obesity, additionally local data was taken from an article conducted at the University of Santiago de Cali which reported 86% overweight and 13.4% obesity. Obesity and overweight impact 62.19% of university students, which indicates that sustainable actions are necessary through health training programs such as the Prehospital Care Technology program at Universidad Santiago de Cali, where students should become a key example to promote healthy lifestyles inside and outside the university environment.Item Síndrome de burnout en el personal de atención prehospitalaria en Colombia. Revisión de alcance(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2022) Zambrano García, Juan Felipe; Lucio Herrera, Sara Maria (Directora)A documentary review of research conducted in Latin America between 2015 and 2021 was carried out in order to compile information on Burnout Syndrome (BS) in Pre-Hospital Care (PHC) personnel and mentioning other health professionals such as: nursing and medicine, in order to corroborate the affectation by BS; the latter, identifying a series of factors that could lead Pre-Hospital Care (PHC) personnel to generate physical and mental exhaustion. The Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) was taken into account, this being the most widely used instrument for the evaluation of personnel. It was identified that exposure to different factors in the out-of-hospital setting and situations such as: traffic accidents, traumatic patients, abortions, amputations, interpersonal aggressions, among others, are circumstances that make APH Personnel vulnerable and suggestive of acquiring BS. Johana Andrea Betancur Velásquez and Claudia Patricia Cortés Girón in 2019 applied the Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI) survey to determine the prevalence of Burnout syndrome in prehospital care personnel of the 123 Medellín health emergency program, identifying its presence in this population. The analysis showed that 9 out of 24 people, that is, 37.4% of the surveyed population are at high risk of suffering from Burnout syndrome. The present work concludes the need to carry out a generalized study for Colombia where variables such as whether the personnel surveyed are technologists in prehospital care, professional technicians in prehospital care, nursing assistants with emphasis on prehospital care are taken into account. The problem of private ambulance services dedicated to the transport of patients injured in traffic accidents should be observed as a factor including or excluding a future investigation because they are also exposed to situations that can also lead to SB. Another conclusion is to consider prehospital personnel working in referral and counter referral rooms as an including or excluding factor, taking into account that their actions are applied in an administrative context, which could generate a different level of exposure for acquiring burnout syndrome.Item Análisis de sistemas de respuesta comunitaria a emergencia, aplicables al área rural del corregimiento de Salónica como modelo de intervención en salud: Revisión de alcance(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2022) Rincon Vanegas, Jonny Andres; Forero Corral, Jousetp (Director)Salónica, is a population located in the rural area of the Municipality of Riofrio, to the southwest on the slope of the Western Cordillera, its main source of economy lies in the planting and use of coffee as an organic crop, pig farming and poultry production, in the sector there is a health post, police station and Volunteer Fire Department. The use of tools such as Machetes, Hoes, Scythe, among others; cause accidents that constantly take lives and affect the health of those who suffer it, the dispersed rural areas of the Corregimiento do not have health centers, thus leaving only the attention to the health post located within the town, added to the above the community does not generate any care response for injured or sick people, so research is carried out on the existence of rural pre-hospital care models in which the community is its main actor, this is how the compilation of fifteen (15 ) articles among which reviews, research papers and models of rural emergency care are observed, of the articles mentioned at the author's discretion, three (3) are chosen for analysis; the way to analyze them is by comparing their structures and subsequent comparison with the demographic, geographical and institutional characteristics of Thessaloniki. Once the articles chosen by the author have been reviewed, it is evident that from the models applied in different geographical areas, the populations in which said intervention model was applied present similarities in their social and demographic characteristics, which would make it feasible to implement a method similar in the Corregimiento de Salónica that presents similar characteristics in terms of population, Geography, and economic factor. The care of injuries by the people who make up the intervention models generated a great impact on mortality and morbidity in these populations. In the three models analyzed, the importance of the support of relief institutions or medical emergency systems was determined, for the training, motivation and training of the people who are part of said models, in order to generate communities suitable for care and Dare them to get to motivate those who still do not find the clear reasons to be part of this initiative; It is advisable to continue with the process of analysis, formation and implementation of a health emergency care model, in which the community of the rural area of Thessaloniki is involved.Item Tratamiento no farmacológico en pacientes con impresión diagnóstica de crisis hipertensiva durante el traslado en ambulancias terrestres(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2022) Meneses Daza, Jakeline; Montoya Niño, Christian Alberto; Rivas Velasco, Felipe (Director)Item Perfil ocupacional del operador de líneas de emergencia: una revisión de alcance(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2023) Grajales Guetio, Víctor Daniel; Duran Restrepo, Numar Alexis; Quiñones Quiñones, Luis Miguel; Rojas, Luis Esteban (Director)Hotline personnel are a team of workers who receive phone calls or messages related to emergent situations. The main function of these professionals is to gather all the information provided to them while they are preparing to assess the situation in order to make quick and accurate decisions to best respond to the emergency. In particular cases, they also provide instructions on what to do while professional help arrives. Therefore, emergency line personnel may work in different environments, including fire departments, ambulance, police and critical facilities. This is why it is important for personnel to be trained and qualified and to have optimal communication, stress management and critical decision making skills in pressure situations. Emergency line personnel must be highly professional, possess advanced communication and social skills, have an empathetic and collaborative attitude, and have physical and emotional skills capable of dealing with and resolving critical situations. Such as the implementation of a "telephone triage", where a subtle analysis of the patient's condition and environment is suggested. Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)Objective: Describe the occupational profile, training, abilities, aptitudes and attitudes of the personnel of emergency lines, telecommunicationItem Telemedicina Como Estrategia Para Reducir El Hacinamiento De Pacientes En Las Ips colombianas(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2023) Chinchilla Alfonso, Sandra Jineth; Carlos Alberto, López Guzmán(Director)Telehealth has emerged as a crucial tool in healthcare, especially in the context of the pandemic. Health Service Providing Institutions (IPS) have faced the challenge of overcrowding and overcrowding of patients. In this scenario, telehealth is presented as an innovative solution to efficiently address these problems. Aim. This is a scoping review that aims to collect systematic information to understand the applicability of telemedicine in IPS in Colombia as a strategy to avoid overcrowding. In particular, it seeks to implement a triage system through video calls, in which pre-hospital care personnel play a crucial role in the identification and care of patients, those who do not require emergency care therefore do not need to go to any health entity and Contrary to that, they can be attended to by doctors and specialists through video calls, saving resources and time for both staff and the patient. Methodology: The integration of telemedicine platforms in the triage process. Pre-hospital care staff will conduct initial assessments via video calls to determine the patient's condition. Predefined clinical criteria will be used to classify patients into categories, thus facilitating efficient and timely medical care. Results: A significant decrease in waiting time and workload in the IPS is evident, by accurately and quickly identifying patients requiring care. In addition, it is expected to improve the efficiency of the health system by providing appropriate care depending on the severity of the medical situation, also optimizing the management of resources dedicated to health. Conclusions. The implementation of telemedicine in triage shows to be a promising strategy to mitigate overcrowding and overcrowding in IPS. Preliminary results suggest that this approach not only optimizes healthcare resources, but also improves patient care by ensuring a rapid and appropriate response to their medical needs. This study highlights the importance of leveraging technology to transform and improve healthcare processes, especially in emergency and high-demand situations. The application of telemedicine in prehospital triage emerges as a viable and effective solution to address current challenges in the health system.Item Protocolos colombianos para la atención a víctimas de violencia sexual en la fase prehospitalaria: una revisión de alcance(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2023) Noreña Álvarez, María José; Valencia Perlaza, Luisa Hasbleidy; Herrera González, Brenda; Rojas, Luis Esteban (Director)In the research history of this review article, a deep analysis of the literatures about the initial protocol of sexual abuse in the prehospital environment was carried out, to which it was generally found different topics associated to sexual abuse, for the selection of the articles it was taken into account that the information was adapted to the need of this article; therefore 23 articles that fulfilled the requirements already mentioned were chosen, thanks to the diversity of the databases it was possible to have articles of scientific weight from countries such as Africa, Brazil and Spain. With this research result, the deficiency of information in Colombia regarding the protocol of initial care of the victims was ratified, taking into account that no specific information was found regarding the care in the pre-hospital environment, giving clarity of the lack of a guide or optimal protocol of the above mentioned, in order to improve the damages, sequels and morbidity that this incident leaves in the victims due to the lack of an optimal care of the management of these. Sexual violence is an issue that concerns the whole world; therefore, it should have more importance in terms of literature in order to inform the population about this issue, thus achieving a possible decrease in the physical and mental sequelae of the victims. It was evidenced in the search, the negligence of education that exists in part of the personnel that provides attention to the victims, and this is reflected in the number of cases that have not even been reported by the victims.Item Viabilidad de implementación de un sistema de paramedicina comunitaria en Santiago de cali(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2022) Marin Salinas, Harold Esteban; Arango Londoño, Maria Fernanda; López Guzmán, Carlos Alberto (Director)Item Importancia de la aplicación de primeros auxilios psicológicos en emergencias y desastres en Latinoamérica entre los años 2010 y 2020(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2022) Carabali Mina, Dilian Carolina; Ospina Villarreal, Darwin Alexis; Lucio Herrera, Sara Maria (Directora)This bibliography review monograph was carried out with the aim of demonstrating the importance of the application of Psychological First Aid in emergency and disaster situations; the study was carried out through the documentary analysis of 16 articles published between 2010 and 2020, whose subject of study was emergency psychology or the application of psychological first aid. The results obtained indicate that in the bibliographic review carried out, 25% of the articles were carried out in 2010, followed by 2019 with 18.75%, on the other hand with respect to the countries of publication the places where the most articles were found were in Chile with 25%, followed by Argentina and Peru with 18.75% each. And finally, compared to the type of study, almost all of the articles were bibliographically reviewed with 93.75% Regarding emergency psychology, it was found that in Colombia it is not established as a line of research, and in many cases it is not even considered as part of the curricular structure of Prehospital Care programs; therefore, the relevance and study of PAPs in the country is still limited.Item Unidades caninas en búsqueda y rescate de víctimas en colapsos estructurales producto de sismos, una revisión de alcance(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2023) Cordoba Baos, Maria Camila; Galvis Grisales, Wilder Andres; López Guzmán, Carlos Alberto (Director)Introduction. A focus is made on the integration of search and rescue canine units in the support of locating people victims of natural disasters, their effectiveness in carrying out their work is pointed out, the benefits, in addition to presenting the characteristics that canine teams must comply with, how they carry out their activities, and how their training is until they can find living people for their rescue, or lifeless people, to recover their bodies using smell. Background. Several authors recognize the importance of the implementation of canine units in emergency scenarios to find missing persons; However, studies with empirical evidence of search and rescue canines in Latin America are few, likewise, rescue dogs also called (k9) are considered important support animals for humans, since with their powerful sense of smell they detect the human smell. However, there are also multiple protocols used in different countries on the use of canine units. Consequently, it is appropriate to group data on publications oriented towards the effectiveness in terms of the use of canine units to find victims. Aim. Establish the degree of effectiveness of the canine units (k9) used to find victims of structural collapses, product of earthquakes, through a scope review of the period 2012-2022 Methodology. Scope review based on the Prisma Guide for article screening, segmenting the information from a PCC question (Population, Concept, Context). Results: It is a conglomerate of characteristics and conditions, which make the dog suitable to find victims in a structural collapse, which, when evaluated, certify that they can be used for disaster scenarios, which increases the chances of success of the dog in the field, so there are organizations in charge of certifying institutions that have SAR dogs, which ensure or improve in a certain sense the probability of a successful search. Conclusions: The effectiveness of the canine team is based on the constant evaluations that their trainers carry out, as well as their respective certifications that the dog and the handler must have, this in order not to reduce the quality of the search for people by the dog. Dog, if this is carried out according to the characteristics established by the USAR, the chances of success of a search dog and location of victims in structures collapsed by earthquakes are very highItem Identificación de los lineamientos de atención de pacientes con politraumatismo en los servicios de traslado asistencial con el fin de disminuir el riesgo de complicaciones(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2022) Yela Delgado, Carlos Ferney ; Tenorio Zuluaga, Juan Diego; López Guzmán, Carlos Alberto (Director)Trauma and polytrauma have been highly focused by medical personnel, health centers, researchers and governments at the national level due to the high figures they present in morbidity and mortality, reaching the point of being considered a complex pandemic to control. For this reason, this research aims to identify in the first instance the guidelines that should be implemented by care transfer services and prehospital care in patients with polytrauma in order to reduce the risk of complications during health care. To achieve the purpose of the research, a bibliographical review is carried out to know all the existing information on the subject and from these studies in favor of contributing to new knowledge in this area. Throughout the investigation, it was possible to recognize the normative aspects that occur in the authorization of low and medium complexity ambulances to carry out the transfer of patients with polytrauma. Subsequently, the complications and actions to correct the presence of the fatal triad (bleeding, coagulopathy, acidosis and hypothermia) were determined; and finally, the factors that increase the mortality rate in patients with polytrauma in care transfers are exposed.Item Revisión rápida de la literatura: factores de riesgo asociados a las extubaciones no planificadas(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2022) Avila Ortiz, Alexis; Grisales Salazar, Alexandra; Yaleska Arévalo, Angela (Directora); Gallego Laguna, Jhonatan Ariel (Director)Introduction: the rapid review aims to recognize the risk factors that lead to unplanned extubations and that end in adverse events, which are exposed throughout the review. Objective: To determine the risk factors associated with unplanned extubations. SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES; Perform a search for the history of unplanned extubations in the databases enabled by the university and other external ones. Methodology: criteria for the inclusion of publications of Clinical trials and reports of adverse events, quasi experimental and some observational studies in English, Spanish and Portuguese were taken into account, publications that did not meet the inclusion criteria or the parameters were excluded. reporting basics. and registry of adverse events linked to these.

This is manifested through a state of physical and mental exhaustion that is prolonged over time with personal frustration and inadequate attitudes that alter the personality and self-esteem of the worker. Burnout syndrome was declared in the year 2000 by the World Health Organization WHO (Torres, 2022) and is better known as "burnout syndrome" or simply professional burnout, which is declared as a disease. Let us understand that this begins to become a state of problem of great revelation where it affects and harms the quality of life of a health professional such as a technologist in pre-hospital care, its origin is based on how these professionals interpret and face their personal and work crisis situations. The psychosocial risks present a great threat too strong which greatly affect their physical and mental state, all this being due as such to the working conditions are their schedules, the high demands of care to patients and as they face say a very hard diagnosis. The objective of this study was to analyze the pre-hospital personnel in Colombia and the presence of burnout syndrome and its influence on health personnel. Methods: The study was non-experimental and with data collection through bibliographic sources, where tables and figures were found for each of the dimensions and scales used in these institutions to determine the analysis and prevalence of this burnout syndrome. Relations with the area of urgencies or emergencies in Latin America, the purpose is to obtain a Result: which this research showed us that the levels of this SB were very high and that it was urgently needed some coping strategies to deal with the subject, in Conclusion: This article of scope wanted to show us that this burnout syndrome is a reality that covers a lot and is felt in some professionals, mainly in the health area and it is worth mentioning in the extra-hospital part, who are people who daily face the vital emergency of the street with the sole purpose of saving lives, so it is understood that it is important to maintain a healthy and adequate mental and physical state so that when providing their service they do not harm their patients and families as well as the organization or institution where they belongItem El abordaje del intento suicida en la fase prehospitalaria(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2022) Mena Llanten, Alejandro; Vasquez Ruiz, Daniel Eduardo; Lucio Herrera, Sara Maria (Directora)Item Guía educativa para la atención de accidentes de tránsito en tiempo de pandemia sarscov-2 enfocado al estudiante Tecnólogo en Atención Pre hospitalaria de la USC en la ciudad Santiago de Cali para el año 2021(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2021) Sarria Rodriguez, Valeria; Sanchez Plazas, Miguel Angel; Velasco Rivas, Felipe (Director)Item Consumo y abuso de las sustancias psicoactivas en el personal de salud.

These parameters have been related to TAPH without taking into account the other healthcare capabilities that it contains since it can work as health promotion and prevention, triage, medical assistance without invasive procedures (insertion of devices such as implanon), which resorts to expanding their fields of work in family planning clinics and not just in hospitals or on city streets. Likewise, although the TAPH is characterized by providing external care to a hospital and although this is one of its greatest capacities, it does not mean that it is its limit, that is why other work fields must be analyzed for it.
