Morbidity ratio associated with Acute Respiratory Infections (ARI) and intramural microbiological quality in a home located in Tausa

This study was carried out in order to determine the presence of potentially pathogenic microorganisms in the air of a home located in the municipality of Tausa and its possible relationship with ARIs (Acute Respiratory Infections), for which a microbiological analysis was carried out in order to identify bacteria that are possibly causing respiratory illnesses in the household. The sampling consisted of the use of a suction equipment (MAS100 Eco), during different time bands and spaces inside and outside the house. Later the respective analysis was carried out in the laboratory and 6 different mesophilic microorganisms were identified, which were: Salmonella tiphy, Bacillus subtilis, Acinetobacter baumannii, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Kingella kingae. In addition, each of these bacteria were individually analyzed to understand the dynamics of the pollutant load in the home. Finally, the identified mesophilic microorganisms correspond to bacteria with some degree of pathogenicity and / or health effects, in the same way the morbidity data from the Tausa medical center were analyzed. Here we found that the population under 13 years old is the most affected by ARI, and that the bacteria present more easily affect this type of population, generating a wider perspective on the possibilities of having more patients diagnosed with ARI, as found in the home. The data presented here were affected and biased due to the health emergency caused by COVID19.
