RESUMO

Standardized Inka tunics, or unku, were created under the auspices of the state as symbolic expressions of its expansionist power. To ensure these textiles acquired the status of effective insignias of power and territorial control, the Inka established and imposed technical and stylistic canons for their production (techne) by means of highly-skilled state weavers. In the provinces, social groups that came under imperial rule, local expert weaving agents adopted the conventions of the state and included meaningful symbolic elements of the idiosyncrasies, traditions, and experiential knowledge of the local community (metis). We therefore propose that this was not a unidirectional process and that the Caleta Vitor Inka unku (hereon referred to as the CV unku), presented here, reflects a syncretism promoted by local weavers. In terms of methods, we have developed a decoding tool for the unku, with the aim of distinguishing state from local hallmarks, thereby revealing the syncretic complexity of these iconic tunics. This methodological tool is based on a series of standard analytical parameters and attributes linked to morphological, technological, and stylistic features, which we applied to the CV unku. Unlike others, this unku does come from a looted tomb but was scientifically excavated in a cemetery located in the Caleta Vitor Bay in northern Chile. By deconstructing the CV unku we determined the steps in the chaîne opératoire at which local technical and stylistic elements were incorporated, thus affecting or transforming, in part, its emblematic imperial imagery. This study also marks a step forward in our understanding of a syncretic landscape that combines the state worldview and organized production system (imperial Inka) with craft-production practices that were rooted in provincial and local communities (provincial Inka).

RESUMO

Objetivo: Determinar los factores asociados a la calidad de vida en adultos mayores con insuficiencia orgánica crónica avanzada en un hospital de Lima-Perú. Materiales y métodos: Investigación observacional, analítica transversal, cuya población la conformaron 100 adultos mayores, la técnica de recolección fue la entrevista y el instrumento el cuestionario a través de la aplicación del índice de Barthel y WHOQoL-Bref. Para responder a los objetivos de estudio se aplicaron las pruebas no paramétricas u de Mann Whitney, Kruskal Wallis y Rho de Spearman, considerando la significancia del 5%. Resultados: El (44) 44% de adultos mayores tuvieron más de 80 años, el (59) 59% fueron varones, el (31) 31% estudiaron nivel técnico superior, el (57) 57% fueron titulares en la marina de guerra, el (74) 74% tuvo hipertensión arterial. Los síndromes geriátricos más frecuentes fueron déficit visual o auditivo (82) 82%, insomnio (59) 59%, estreñimiento (52) 52% y malnutrición (47) 47%. El (50) 50% de los adultos mayores presentó dependencia funcional grave. El (63)63% presentó calidad de vida a nivel medio. Los factores epidemiológicos asociados a la baja calidad de vida, fueron la edad mayor a 80 años (p=0,032, RP=1,818), sexo femenino (p=0,009, RP=2,056), el grado de instrucción dado por analfabeto, primaria y secundaria (p=0,025, RP=1,930) y la relación con la marina de guerra como familiar (p=0,022, RP=1,894). Los síndromes geriátricos asociados fueron el insomnio (p=0,034, RP=1,930), el estreñimiento (p=0,000, RP=3,560), la lesión por presión (p=0,000, RP=2,788) y la dependencia funcional grave (p=0,000, RP=4,667). Sin embargo, el análisis multivariado evidenció que el insomnio (p=0,002; RPa=1,166), la lesión por presión (p=0,016; RPa=1,248) y la dependencia grave (p=0,000; RPa=1,207) fueron los factores asociados significativamente a la baja calidad de vida en los adultos mayores. Conclusiones: Los factores insomnio, la lesión por presión y la dependencia grave estuvieron asociados significativamente a la calidad de vida baja en los adultos mayores con insuficiencia orgánica crónica avanzada en un hospital de lima-Perú.


Objective: To determine the factors associated with the quality of life in older adults with advanced chronic organ failure in a hospital in Lima-Peru. Materials and methods: Observational research, cross-sectional analysis, whose population was made up of 100 older adults, the collection technique was the interview and the instrument the questionnaire through the application of the Barthel index and WHOQoL-Bref. To respond to the study objectives, the non-parametric Mann Whitney u, Kruskal Wallis and Spearman's Rho tests were applied, considering the significance of 5%. Results: (44) 44% of older adults were over 80 years old, (59) 59% were men, (31) 31% studied a higher technical level, (57) 57% were incumbents in the navy, (74) 74% had arterial hypertension. The most frequent geriatric syndromes were visual or auditory deficit (82) 82%, insomnia (59) 59%, constipation (52) 52% and malnutrition (47) 47%. The (50) 50% of the older adults presented severe functional dependence. (63) 63% presented quality of life at a medium level. The epidemiological factors associated with low quality of life were age over 80 years (p=0.032, RP=1.818), female sex (p=0.009, RP=2.056), the level of education given by illiterate, primary and secondary school (p=0.025, RP=1.930) and the relationship with the navy as a family member (p=0.022, RP=1.894). Associated geriatric syndromes were insomnia (p=0.034, RP=1.930), constipation (p=0.000, RP=3.560), pressure injury (p=0.000, RP=2.788) and severe functional dependence (p= 0.000, PR=4.667). However, the multivariate analysis showed that insomnia (p=0.002; RPa=1.166), pressure injury (p=0.016; RPa=1.248) and severe dependence (p=0.000; RPa=1.207) were the associated factors. Significantly to the low quality of life in older adults. Conclusions: The factors insomnia, pressure injury and severe dependency were significantly associated with low quality of life in older adults with advanced chronic organ failure in a hospital in Lima-Peru.

RESUMO

RESUMEN Objetivo Determinar los factores asociados a complicaciones quirúrgicas en pacientes adultos mayores con diagnóstico de neoplasias gastrointestinales del Centro Médico Naval del Perú. Materiales y métodos Estudio de cohorte retrospectiva y análisis secundario de una base de datos. Se evaluaron los factores asociados a complicaciones postoperatorias de 245 pacientes con diagnóstico de cáncer gastrointestinal entre 2013 y 2015. Las variables fueron edad, fragilidad, vulnerabilidad, antecedentes patológicos, consumo de tabaco, perímetro de pantorrilla, dependencia funcional, caídas, polifarmacia y localización del cáncer. Resultados El 29,8 % presentó complicaciones quirúrgicas, que fueron más frecuentes en los casos de cáncer de colon/ recto con 82,19 %, la edad promedio fue de 86,3 años. Las complicaciones más frecuentes fueron dolor, hemorragia, trastornos hidroelectrolíticos e infección de sitio operatorio. Mediante el modelo de regresión ajustado, las variables que mostraron mayor asociación significativa fueron la presencia de 3 o más antecedentes patológicos, consumo de tabaco, perímetro de pantorrilla menor que 31 cm, dependencia funcional, caídas en el último año, polifarmacia, fragilidad, vulnerabilidad según VES-13 y localización del cáncer en colon/recto. Conclusiones Los factores que predisponen la aparición de complicaciones quirúrgicas fueron el cáncer en colon/ recto, ser vulnerable (según la escala VES-13), ser frágil (según el fenotipo de Fried), la polifarmacia, haber sufrido caídas, dependencia funcional, perímetro de pantorrilla delgado, antecedente de consumo de tabaco, y tener 3 o más comorbilidades.


ABSTRACT Objective To determine the factors associated with surgical complications in elderly patients diagnosed with gastrointestinal neoplasms at the Centro Médico Naval del Perú. Materials and methods A retrospective cohort study and a secondary database analysis were conducted. The factors associated with postoperative complications in 245 patients diagnosed with gastrointestinal neoplasms between 2013 and 2015 were evaluated. The variables were age, frailty, vulnerability, previous diseases, tobacco smoking, calf perimeter, functional dependence, falls, polypharmacy and cancer location. Results Twenty-nine point eight percent (29.8 %) of the patients presented surgical complications, which were more prevalent in cases of colorectal cancer (82.19 %) and an average age of 86.3 years. The most frequent complications were pain, hemorrhage, hydroelectrolytic disorders and surgical site infection. Using the adjusted regression model, the variables that showed the most significant association were presence of ≥ 3 previous diseases, tobacco smoking, calf perimeter < 31 cm, functional dependence, falls in the last year, polypharmacy, frailty, vulnerability according to the Vulnerable Elders Survey (VES-13) and cancer located in colon/rectum. Conclusions The predictive factors for developing surgical complications were colorectal cancer, vulnerability according to the VES-13, frailty according to the Fried frailty phenotype, polypharmacy, falls, functional dependence, thin calf perimeter, history of tobacco smoking, and presence of three or more comorbidities.

RESUMO

Los cuidados paliativos, además de ser parte de las competencias que debería haber adquirido un profesional de la salud durante su formación, son una necesidad en crecimiento para pacientes de diferentes grupos etarios, ya sea para enfermedades oncológicas, cardiovasculares, degenerativas, entre otras. Se consideran un reto para los servicios de salud por ser cuidados complejos, que requieren de trabajo en equipo, recursos humanos y sistemas que funcionen adecuadamente. Los aspectos de gestión, salud pública, integración de servicios, dilemas éticos y aspectos legales en transición son las principales barreras a las que se enfrentan los profesionales que atienden personas con enfermedad terminal. Una de las principales armas que tenemos es consolidar programas educativos para empoderar con conocimiento a los profesionales y, de esta forma, que hagan notar la necesidad del manejo humano de la salud de personas con enfermedades terminales.


On top of all competences that a healthcare professional should have achieved during his/her training, palliative care is a growing need for patients from different age groups affected with cancer, cardiovascular diseases, degenerative conditions, and the like. Palliative care is a huge challenge for healthcare services, because this requires adequate teamwork, human resources and adequately functioning systems. Management, public health, service integration, ethical dilemmas, and ethical issues are the main barriers that physicians taking care of terminally ill patients must deal with. One of our main strategies for tackling this situation is to consolidate educational programs, so healthcare professionals may become empowered with knowledge; so, they may disclose the need for humanizing healthcare of terminally ill subjects.
