Resumen
Determinar la relación entre conocimiento y práctica sobre la enfermedad del dengue
en usuarios del Centro de Salud de Parcona – Ica 2025”
Material y método: El estudio fue de tipo observacional, transversal, correlacional con un nivel
de estudio descriptivo y de diseño no experimental. La muestra fue de 313 usuarios que acudieron
al Centro de Salud de Parcona de 18 a 59 años a quienes se les aplico un cuestionario para la
recolección de datos y analizado por el software de SPSS.
Resultados: se encontró que el 55% perteneció al grupo de edad de 18 a 31 años, 79.6% de sexo
femenino, 69.6% residía en zona urbana, 51.8% con grado de instrucción de secundaria completa,
y el 83.4% contaba con seguro integral de salud (SIS). Con respecto al nivel de conocimiento
global el 61.7% tenían un nivel alto, siendo en su dimensión “identificación del vector” el 82.1%
tenían nivel alto; en la dimensión “protección de vivienda” el 57.2% presento un nivel alto y en
el “manejo de reservorio” el 41.5% tenían un nivel alto. En cuanto al nivel de prácticas global el
55.6% tenían un nivel de practicas buenas, en su dimensión de “autocuidado” el 56.2%
presentaron buenas prácticas y en la dimensión “compromiso en salud” el 49.5% presento nivel
de buenas prácticas. Las variables asociadas a un mayor nivel de conocimiento fueron el sexo y
grado de instrucción con un valor de p=0.000 y p=0.046 respectivamente. Para la variable
practicas se asoció a la edad y el grado de instrucción con un valor de p=0.031 y p=0.000. S
estableció una relación entre el nivel de conocimiento y practicas a través de la correlación de
Spearman con un valor de rho=0.315 y un p=0.000 siendo esta relación directa, positiva y de bajo
grado, pero estadísticamente significativa.
Conclusión: a mayor conocimiento mejor será el nivel de prácticas.
To determine the relationship between knowledge and practice regarding dengue fever among users of the Parcona Health Center – Ica 2025. Material and method: This study was observational, cross-sectional, correlational, and descriptive in nature. The sample consisted of 313 users aged 18 to 59 who attended the Parcona Health Center. Data were collected using a questionnaire and analyzed using SPSS software. Results: It was found that 55% belonged to the age group of 18 to 31 years, 79.6% were female, 69.6% resided in an urban area, 51.8% had completed secondary education, and 83.4% had comprehensive health insurance (SIS). Regarding the level of overall knowledge, 61.7% had a high level, being 82.1% high in the "vector identification" dimension; 57.2% had a high level in the "housing protection" dimension, and 41.5% had a high level in "reservoir management." Regarding the overall level of practices, 55.6% had a level of good practices, 56.2% presented good practices in the "self-care" dimension, and 49.5% presented a level of good practices. The variables associated with a higher level of knowledge were sex and educational level, with p = 0.000 and p = 0.046 respectively. For the variable "practice," it was associated with age and educational level, with p = 0.031 and p = 0.000. A relationship between knowledge level and practices was established through Spearman's correlation, with a rho = 0.315 and p = 0.000. This relationship was direct, positive, and of low degree, but statistically significant. Conclusion: Greater knowledge will improve the level of practice.
