Resumen
BACKGROUND: The WHO establishes an increase in the registry of elective surgeries relating these patients in general anesthesia exposure and endotracheal intubation.
OBJECTIVE: To establish pH levels in the endotracheal tube in patients receiving general anesthesia at the Homero Castanier Crespo Hospital, march 2017.
METHODS: The research design was descriptive, carried out at the Homero Castanier Crespo Hospital, in the province of Cañar, belonging to Canton Azogues, in a period of 1 months in march 2017. Non-probabilistic sampling was used for convenience Includes all patients undergoing surgery who receive general anesthesia over a period of 31 days, represented by 131 patients. In the present investigation a quantitative method was applied and the interview was used for the data collection.
RESULTS: 37.4% were represented by patients aged between 18 and 30 years of age; The female sex predominated over the male with 50.4% and 49.6%, respectively. The potential of Hydrogen (pH) with alkaline level 8 and 9 predominated in both sexes compared to the rest of the indicated pH scale.
CONCLUSIONS: 50.4% of the population presented a pH in the endotracheal tube of 9, while 32.1% of the patients had pH 8, despite this there was variation of pH in acid level with 10.6%
