Desarrollo de una Aplicación Móvil para la eficiente gestión de sustancias Químicas con base en la Norma Oficial Mexicana NOM-018-STPS-2015

Abstract

Nowadays the use of mobile applications has contributed in different areas of engineering, the following project presents the development of a mobile application for the chemistry area, which allowed the effective management of substances following the Official Mexican Norm NOM-018-STPS-2015. The utilized method for the development of the application is scrum; which is an agile framework that allows collaboration, self-organization, early delivery, transparency beyond others; the workgroup was formed by students and teachers of the divisions of technologies of the information and communication and pharmaceutical and industrial chemistry. The initiative of implementing a mobile application for devices with an android operating system, with an API greater or equal to 4.4 allowed a highly effective, optimizing the management of the control of chemical substances used by students and teachers, Streamlining the process of returning the laboratory supplies and guaranteeing the fulfillment of the learning process in the laboratories of the technological university of San Juan Del Rio, it was implemented with students of Industrial and pharmaceutical chemistry engineering, where 86% of the users affirmed to be satisfied with the mobile application.

Technical Efficiency of Mexico’s Public Health System in the Delivery of Obstetric Care, during 2012–2018

“…An additional limitation was the lack of information regarding the quality of care and the characteristics of the services rendered. However, considering the current regulatory framework in place, which establishes guidelines and standardizes obstetric care across all healthcare institutions in Mexico [22], it would be expected that significant differences in the quality and type of services provided by each institution do not exist. This analysis did not account for the potential effects of the COVID pandemic, as the structure of the healthcare system and the inputs and outputs did not undergo significant modifications.…”

“…TE was defined as the relationship between inputs (obstetrician-gynecologists, exam rooms, delivery rooms, and operating rooms) and outputs (consultations and delivery services). These outputs correspond to the minimum care required to fulfill the basic requirements established by the Mexican government [22].…”

“…This assumption stemmed from the fact that all institutions constituting Mexico's healthcare system participated in the development of the Official Mexican Standard, which stipulates the types and methods of output production. This standard mandates that care for women during pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period must meet certain quality criteria [22].…”

“…Services were delivered not only by obstetricians but also by trained professionals such as licensed obstetric nurses, hospital-based midwives, and traditional midwives. Prenatal care is usually administered in primary care settings, while delivery services are provided in secondary-level settings [22].…”

Evaluation of α-Glucosidase Inhibition and Antihyperglycemic Activity of Extracts Obtained from Leaves and Flowers of Rumex crispus L.

“…Male Wistar rats weighing 250 ± 20 g were housed in standard cages, kept at a controlled room temperature (22 ± 2 • C) and humidity (55 ± 5%) in a 12/12 h light/dark cycle, and provided a standard diet and water ad libitum. All procedures were developed in accordance with the Mexican official guidelines for laboratory animals (NOM-062-ZOO-1999) [51] and ratified by the Bioethics Committee of the Escuela Nacional de Medicina y Homeopatía of the Instituto Politécnico Nacional (registration CB-001-2020).…”
