ABSTRACT

Se estudió la forma de cristalización del sudor, en forma de dentristas y de hojas de helecho, en 50 pacientes afectados por fibrosis quísticas, mediante la recolección de una gota de sudor; también se realizó la prueba a un grupo control de 550 niños supuestamente sanos. Este método resultó útil para identificar a los pacientes afectados por esta enfermedad, pues mediante el mismo se encontró un 94 por ciento de posibilidad, y solo en tres enfermos resultó negativo. A su vez permitió diferenciar a los grupos control, pues la cristalización de sudor en estos sujetos se produjo en formas de cristales cuboides en un 99 por ciento de los 550 niños sanos con pruebas de concentración fue negativa en 543

ABSTRACT

A study on infant mortality was carried out in the Chiqui Gómez health area of Santa Clara City during a 5-year period (1988-1992). Data were collected from the Statistics Department; analyses of familial health records; medical micro-histories of pregnant women in family doctors' home offices; and from the supervision report of the Basic Work Group; diagnostic health status of the area was also taken into account. The method employed was descriptive and analytic. The study is concluded with the evaluation of the fulfillment of the Maternal-Child Program as satisfactory in this health area. Causes of death in the first place were main perinatal disorders and congenital anomalies. Factors having a higher incidence in infant mortality in the study are; short intergenesic period; delivery before the 37th week of pregnancy; pregnancy in adolescence; and low birth weight. There is an evident relationship between pregnancy in adolescence and low birth weight; the results attained in prenatal care and infant care prior to children's death are considered adequate.
