| Popis: | El consumo de agua potable es vital para el vivir diario de los seres humanos, y consecuentemente una inadecuada calidad del mismo conlleva a la transmision de enfermedades. En ese sentido, el objetivo de la presente investigacion fue analizar la distribucion temporal de las Enfermedades Diarreicas Agudas (EDAs) y su relacion con la temperatura y cloro residual del agua potable, en la ciudad de Puno, Peru. La investigacion es de tipo descriptiva y explicativa, con un tipo de diseno de investigacion no experimental y longitudinal. Se utilizo los datos obtenidos de la Red de Salud de la region de salud Puno y de la Empresa Municipal de Saneamiento, EMSA Puno. Se logro identificar que el cloro residual en el sistema de distribucion de agua esta por encima de 0,5 mg/l.La correlacion cruzada realizada nos senala que las variaciones historicas de las EDAs estan asociadas a la temperatura. Por consiguiente las EDAs no son causadas directamente por el agua distribuida por la empresa proveedora de servicio de agua potable, debiendo existir otros factores en su casuistica endemica. ABSTRACT The consumption of drinking water is vital for the daily living of human beings, and consequently an inadequate quality of it leads to the transmission of diseases. In this sense, the objective of the present investigation was to analyze the temporal distribution of Acute Diarrheal Diseases (ADDs) and their relationship with the temperature and residual chlorine of drinking water, in the city of Puno, Peru. The research is descriptive and explanatory, with a non-experimental and longitudinal research design type. It was used the data obtained from the Health Network from the Puno’s health region and the Municipal Sanitation Company, EMSA Puno. It was possible to identify that the residual chlorine in the water distribution system is above 0.5 mg/l. The cross correlation made shows that the historical variations of the ADDs are associated with temperature. Therefore, the ADDs are not directly caused by the water distributed by the company supplying drinking water, and there must be other factors in its endemic casuistry. |
