Resumen
El objetivo de la investigación fue analizar el perfil epidemiológico del paludismo y sus principales referentes teóricos. El estudio fue de enfoque cuantitativo, analítico, retrospectivo y transversal, que analizó las historias clínicas de 49 pacientes con la enfermedad del Subcentro de Monte Sinaí Distrito 09D08 durante el periodo del 1 de enero del 2017 al 31 de enero del 2018. Para el análisis estadístico se empleó el programa SPSS versión 21. La prevalencia de paludismo en el subcentro fue de 3,64%. La cefalea (100%) y artralgias (71%) fueron los síntomas predominantes y la tríada de fiebre/escalofríos/diaforesis (100%) los signos más comunes. El 12% de los pacientes tuvieron complicaciones, La anemia severa (83%) fue la más común y el 31% (15) de la población tenía factores de riesgo asociados, de los cuales los frecuentes fueron la edad > 60 años (67%) y la anemia previa (47%). Se concluye que hay asociación estadísticamente significativa entre las complicaciones y la presencia de anemia severa (p=0,002) y comorbilidades (0,0001).
