dc.description | This research aims to determine the risk factors that influence the transmission of acute respiratory diseases in older infants attending the Basic Hospital of Baba. To achieve this objective, a hypothetical-deductive, field-based, and non-experimental methodology was employed, using the analytical-synthetic method for data analysis. The results revealed that 69% of mothers of older infants did not practice on-demand breastfeeding. Furthermore, it was observed that 8% of older infants experienced 1 to 2 episodes of acute respiratory diseases, while 24% experienced 3 to 4 episodes of these diseases. Surprisingly, a high percentage, 68%, suffered from 5 or more episodes of acute respiratory diseases. The high frequency of these episodes, along with the predominance of symptoms such as cough and fever, underscores the importance of identifying and addressing specific risk factors that could contribute to the transmission of these diseases in the population of older infants. Additionally, the results also suggest that access to health insurance is not widely spread among the families of older infants, which could influence timely medical care-seeking and potentially the transmission of respiratory diseases. Consequently, this research provides a solid foundation for proposing strategies and measures aimed at addressing these risk factors, improving the prevention and management of acute respiratory diseases in older infants. | es_ES |

dc.description.abstract | Esta investigación tiene como objetivo determinar los factores de riesgo que inciden en la transmisión de las enfermedades respiratorias agudas en lactantes mayores que asisten al Hospital Básico de Baba. Para alcanzar este objetivo, se empleó una metodología hipotético-deductiva, de campo y no experimental, utilizando el método analítico-sintético para el análisis de datos. Los resultados revelaron que el 69% de las madres de los lactantes mayores no practicaban la lactancia materna de libre demanda. Además, se observó que un 8% de los lactantes mayores experimentaron de 1 a 2 episodios de enfermedades respiratorias agudas, mientras que un 24% experimentó de 3 a 4 episodios de estas enfermedades. Sorprendentemente, un alto porcentaje, el 68%, sufrió 5 o más episodios de enfermedades respiratorias agudas. La alta frecuencia de estos episodios de enfermedades respiratorias agudas, junto con la predominancia de síntomas como la tos y la fiebre, resalta la importancia de identificar y abordar los factores de riesgo específicos que podrían contribuir a la transmisión de estas enfermedades en la población de lactantes mayores. Además, los resultados también sugieren que el acceso al seguro médico no está ampliamente difundido entre las familias de los lactantes mayores, lo que podría influir en la búsqueda de atención médica oportuna y, potencialmente, en la transmisión de las enfermedades respiratorias. En consecuencia, esta investigación proporciona una base sólida para proponer estrategias y medidas dirigidas a abordar estos factores de riesgo, mejorar la prevención y el manejo de las enfermedades respiratorias agudas en lactantes mayores. | es_ES |
