dc.description | In the development of the research based on the "Effect of heat stress on the productivity of gestating sows in the Ecuadorian tropics." The objective was to analyze heat stress on the productivity of gestating sows. Regarding the methodology, it was determined that the study was carried out in a descriptive type, with a bibliographic research design. Within the development, topics such as climate change in the world and in the country, and designs and characteristics of pig facilities in the Ecuadorian tropics, management strategies to mitigate the effects of heat stress on gestating sows, constant temperature control and monitoring, in addition, the impact that heat stress has on the productivity of gestating sows and finally the physiological parameters that produce heat stress in gestating sows. Regarding the results, the study showed that ventilation, both natural and forced, is one of the most widely used tactics to mitigate the impacts of heat stress. If this stress is not taken into account, it could jeopardize fetal growth and increase the mortality rate of piglets. In conclusion, systems such as evaporative cooling and the use of reflective and thermally insulating materials are effective in reducing ambient temperature. These reactions, despite being necessary, increase energy consumption and can cause fatigue and reduced physical activity. Furthermore, heat stress affects heart rate and generates hormonal imbalances. | es_ES |

dc.description.abstract | En el desarrollo de la investigación basada en los “Efecto del estrés calórico en productividad de cerdas gestantes en el trópico ecuatoriano”. En la cual se presentó como objetivo el analizar el estrés calórico en productividad de cerdas gestantes. En cuanto a la metodología se determinó que el estudio se realizó en un tipo descriptivo, con un diseño investigativo bibliográfico, dentro del desarrollo se tomaron temas como el cambio climático en el mundo y en el país, y diseños y características de las instalaciones porcinas en el trópico ecuatoriano las estrategias de manejo para mitigar los efectos del estrés calórico en cerdas gestantes, el control y monitoreo constante de la temperatura, además, el impacto que tiene estrés calórico en la productividad de las cerdas gestantes y por ultimo los parámetros fisiológicos que producen el estrés calórico en cerdas gestantes. En cuento a los resultados, el estudio demostró que, tanto natural como forzada, la ventilación es una de las tácticas más utilizadas para atenuar los impactos del estrés calórico, si no se toma en cuento este estrés, lo cual podría poner en riesgo el crecimiento fetal y el incremento en la tasa de mortalidad de los lechones. En las conclusiones los sistemas como la refrigeración por evaporación y la utilización de materiales reflectantes y aislantes termino resultan eficaces para disminuir la temperatura del ambiente, estas reacciones, a pesar de ser necesarias, elevan el consumo de energía y pueden provocar cansancio y reducción de la actividad física, además el estrés térmico índice en la frecuencia cardiaca y genera desbalances hormonales. | es_ES |
