Resumen
La histoplasmosis es una micosis endémica con amplia distribución mundial y está establecida como un problema de gran importancia en pacientes con inmunidad comprometida, en los cuales se instituye un estado morboso severo y de rápida progresión. Esta patología está causada por el agente etiológico Histoplasma capsulatum, el cual es un hongo dimorfo causante de la histoplasmosis americana, que representa la infección sistémica endémica de mayor prevalencia en las Américas, en la cual el órgano predilecto de esta patología es el pulmón. La metodología para la elaboración de esta propuesta de trabajo de titulación se centra en un enfoque cuantitativo, el cual se basa en un diseño no experimental de tipo de corte transversal, cuyo método de estudio es analítico. La técnica de recolección de información se hará mediante el estudio de historias clínicas en Hospital de Infectología “Dr. José Daniel Rodríguez Maridueña durante el período de Enero del 2016 a Diciembre del 2017. El objetivo de este trabajo de investigación es realizar un análisis retrospectivo de los casos clínicos de pacientes con HIV/SIDA que presenten un diagnóstico de histoplasmosis cerebral en el Hospital de Infectología “Dr. José Daniel Rodríguez Maridueña” durante el período de enero del 2016 a diciembre del 2017, para que a través de este trabajo de pregrado actualizar estadísticas de la prevalencia de esta patología para que sirva de base de estudio y así disminuir la tasa de morbimortalidad de esta enfermedad oportunista.
Histoplasmosis is an endemic mycosis with wide global distribution and is established as a problem of great importance in patients with compromised immunity, in which a severe morbidity and rapid progression is established. This pathology is caused by the etiological agent Histoplasma capsulatum, which is a dimorphic fungus that causes American histoplasmosis, which represents the most prevalent systemic infection in the Americas, in which the favorite organ of this pathology is the lung. The methodology for the elaboration of this proposal of work of investigation centers in a quantitative approach, which bases in a design no experimental of type of transversal cut, whose method of study is analytical. The technique of information collection will be done through the study of medical records at Hospital de Infectología "Dr. José Daniel Rodríguez Maridueña during the period from January 2016 to December 2017. The aim of this research is to perform a retrospective analysis of the clinical cases of patients with HIV / AIDS who present a diagnosis of cerebral histoplasmosis at the Hospital of Infectology "Dr. José Daniel Rodríguez Maridueña "during the period from January 2016 to December 2017, so that through this undergraduate work to update statistics of the prevalence of this pathology to serve as a basis for study and thus decrease the rate of morbidity and mortality of this opportunistic disease.
