Resumen
El presente trabajo de tesis permitió conocer que la neumonía es la causa principal de muertes en niños en el Ecuador se calcula que la neumonía mata a unos 1,1 millones de niños menores de cinco años cada año. Es importante reconocer que la neumonía es un tipo de infección respiratoria aguda que afecta a los pulmones. Éstos están formados por pequeños sacos, llamados alvéolos, que en las personas sanas se llenan de aire al respirar, causada por diversos agentes infecciosos como bacterias, virus y hongos, la gravedad depende del tipo de organismo causante, al igual que de la edad y del estado de salud subyacente. Por medio de la TCM podemos observar los campos pulmonares en alta resolución, puede realizarse cortes más delgados, por lo cual puede detectarse lesiones mas pequeñas, y la toma de las imágenes son mucho más rápidas, de tal manera que los movimientos normales del tórax y la respiración no afecten, por lo tanto se propone que este protocolo proporcione conocimientos a los profesionales, la metodología aplicada fue con el apoyo bibliográfico, documental, electrónico, con el apoyo de las investigaciones explicativa, descriptiva y experimental. Se utilizo la técnica tipo likert que permitió obtener datos de confiabilidad con el apoyo de juicios de expertos en la especialidad.
This thesis work made it possible to know that pneumonia is the main cause of death in children in Ecuador, it is estimated that pneumonia kills about 1.1 million children under five years of age each year. It is important to recognize that pneumonia is a type of acute respiratory infection that affects the lungs. These are formed by small sacs, called alveoli, which in healthy people are filled with air when breathing, caused by various infectious agents such as bacteria, viruses and fungi, the severity depends on the type of organism causing, as well as age and of the underlying health status. Through the TCM we can observe the pulmonary fields in high resolution, thinner cuts can be made, by which smaller lesions can be detected, and the taking of the images are much faster, in such a way that the normal movements of the thorax and Respiration does not affect, therefore it is proposed that this protocol provide knowledge to professionals, the methodology applied was with bibliographic, documentary, electronic support, with the support of explanatory, descriptive and experimental research. The Likert technique was used to obtain reliable data with the support of expert judgments in the specialty.
