RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: The aims of this study in the Emergency Department and Elder Needs (EDEN) series were to explore associations between clinical variables on arrival at the ED (baseline) and the insertion of a bladder catheter, and the relation between catheterization and deterioration to a more complex or serious clinical state. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Included were all patients aged 65 years or older attended during 1 week in 52 Spanish EDs. Patients were grouped according to whether a bladder catheter was or was not inserted in the ED. We used multivariable logistical regression to explore associations between catheterization and patient age, sex, 10 comorbidities, 7 baseline status variables, and 6 clinical variables. Progression was considered serious or complex if the patient died or required hospitalization, a prolonged hospital stay, or discharge to a care facility. We also explored the association between age and catheterization using adjusted restricted cubic spline (RCS) curves with a cutoff value of 65 years. RESULTS: Participating hospitals enrolled 24 573 patients; bladder catheters were inserted in 976 (4%). Of these, 44.3% were discharged from the ED. Fifteen of the 24 variables were independently associated with bladder catheterization. Factors with the strongest associations according to odds ratios (ORs) were impaired consciousness (OR, 2.50; 95% CI, 1.90-3.30), dehydration (OR, 2.24; 95% CI, 1.85-2.72), and male sex (OR, 2.12; 95% CI, 1.84- 2.44). Age 80 years or older was also associated with bladder catheterization (OR, 1.17; 95% CI, 1.01-1.358). The adjusted RCS curves showed a progressive linear increase in the probability of catheterization with age. The increase was constant in men and stabilized after the age of 85 years in women (P-interaction .001). Bladder catheterization was associated with hospitalization (OR, 2.31; 95% CI, 1.99-2.68), intensive care unit admission (OR, 4.64; 95% CI, 3.04-7.09), prolonged stay in the ED for discharged patients (OR, 2.28; 95% CI, 1.75-2.96), in-hospital death (OR, 1.99; 95% CI, 1.54-2.57), and 30-day death (OR, 1.66; 95% CI, 1.33-2.08). No associations were found between catheterization and prolonged hospital stay (OR, 1.11; 95% CI, 0.92-1.34) or need for a care facility on discharge (OR, 1.50; 95% CI, 0.98-2.29). CONCLUSION: Certain patient characteristics and baseline clinical conditions are associated with bladder catheterization in patients of advanced age. The main factors were decreased consciousness, dehydration, and male sex. Even after adjustment for related factors, catheterization is independently associated with progression to more complex or serious clinical states.


OBJETIVO: Estudiar las variables de estado basal y de situación clínica a la llegada a urgencias relacionadas con la práctica de sondaje vesical (SV) en pacientes mayores, y si el SV está asociado a una evolución más compleja o grave. METODO: Se incluyeron todos los pacientes de edad 65 años atendidos durante una semana en 52 servicios de urgencias (SU) españoles, que fueron clasificados en función de si se practicó o no SV en el SU. Se investigó la relación de SV con edad, sexo, 10 variables de comorbilidad, 7 de estado basal y 6 de situación clínica mediante un modelo de regresión logística multivariable. Se consideró la evolución como grave o compleja si existió necesidad de hospitalización, estancia prolongada, necesidad de residencia al alta o muerte. La relación entre edad y SV se exploró también mediante curvas spline cúbicas restringidas (SCR) ajustadas, tomando la edad de 65 años como referencia. RESULTADOS: Se incluyeron 24.573 pacientes, de los que 976 (4%) recibieron SV. De éstos, el 44,3% fueron dados de alta desde urgencias. De las 25 variables exploradas, 15 se relacionaron independientemente con el SV, y las más manifiestas fueron disminución de consciencia (OR = 2,50, IC 95% = 1,90-3,30), deshidratación (OR = 2,24, IC 95% = 1,85-2,72) y sexo masculino (OR = 2,12, IC 95% = 1,84-2,44). La edad 80 años también se asoció a SV (OR = 1,17, IC 95% = 1,01-1,358), y las curvas SCR ajustadas mostraron un incremento progresivo y lineal de la probabilidad de SV con la edad, constante en hombres y que se estabilizaba a partir de los 85 años en mujeres (p interacción 0,001). El SV se asoció a necesidad de hospitalización (OR = 2,31, IC 95% = 1,99-2,68), hospitalización en intensivos (OR = 4,64, IC 95% = 3,04-7,09), estancia prolongada en urgencias en los pacientes dados de alta (OR = 2,28, IC 95% = 1,75-2,96) y mortalidad intrahospitalaria (OR = 1,99, IC 95% = 1,54-2,57) y a 30 días (OR=1,66, IC 95% = 1,33-2,08), pero no con hospitalización prolongada (OR = 1,11, IC 95% = 0,92-1,34) ni con necesidad de residencia al alta (OR = 1,50, IC 95% = 0,98-2,29). CONCLUSIONES: Determinadas características del paciente mayor y de su estado clínico se asocian con realizar un SV en urgencias, entre las que destacan la disminución de consciencia, la deshidratación y el sexo masculino. Aun teniendo en cuenta los factores asociados a SV en urgencias, este procedimiento se asocia independientemente con evoluciones más complejas o graves.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: To analyze the frequencies of 3 types of hospital revisits by patients after treatment for COVID-19 in the emergency department. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Retrospective observational study of consecutive patients who came to the emergency department in March and April 2020 and were discharged alive with a diagnosis of COVID-19. Baseline and acute episode data were collected and the patients were followed for 1 year. We analyzed variables associated with revisits for any reason, revisits related to COVID-19, and early COVID-19-related revisits (within 30 days). RESULTS: A total of 1352 patients with a mean age of 62.1 years (52.9% male) were studied. A total of 553 revisits were made by 342 patients (25.3%) for any reason; 132 (9.8%) revisited in relation to COVID-19 at least once. Of those, 103 (7.6%) revisited within 30 days (early) and 29 (2.2%) came later. COVID-19-related revisits were associated with thrombotic events (odds ratio [OR], 7.58; 95% CI, 1.75-32.81) and pulmonary fibrosis (OR, 4.95; 95% CI, 1.27-19.24); early revisits were inversely associated with follow-up management by a contracted health care support service (OR, 0.18; 95% CI, 0.03-0.92). Hospital admission during the initial visit was significantly associated with fewer revisits for any reason or related to COVID-19 at any time. CONCLUSION: Fewer than half the total number of emergency department revisits after initial care for COVID-19 were related to the novel coronavirus infection. Revisits occurred more often in the first 30 days after discharge. Later COVID-19-related revisits were uncommon, but given the large number of patients with this infection, such visits can be expected.


OBJETIVO: Analizar diferentes categorías de revisita (RV) al año en pacientes con infección COVID-19 que consultan en un servicio de urgencias hospitalario (SUH). METODO: Estudio observacional, retrospectivo, que incluyó pacientes consecutivos que consultaron al SUH en los meses de marzo y abril de 2020 con diagnóstico de COVID-19 y fueron dados de alta vivos del hospital. Se recogieron variables basales y del episodio agudo y se realizó un seguimiento al año. Se hicieron tres comparaciones identificando variables asociadas a la RV total, RV relacionada con COVID-19 (RCovid) y RCovid precoz (# 30 días). RESULTADOS: Se analizaron 1.352 pacientes con edad media de 62,1 años y 52,9% varones. En el seguimiento al año hubo 553 RV en 342 (25,3%) pacientes, 132 (9,8%) con al menos una RCovid, 103 (7,6%) precoz y 29 (2,2%) tardía. La RCovid se relacionó con la presencia de fenómenos trombóticos [OR 7,58 (IC 95%: 1,75-32,81)] y la fibrosis pulmonar [OR 4,95 (IC 95%: 1,27-19,24)]; y la RCovid precoz se relacionó inversamente con alta a dispositivo de soporte sanitario [OR 0,18 (IC 95%: 0,03-0,92)]. El ingreso hospitalario en el evento índice disminuyó la RV total y RCovid y las hospitalizaciones derivadas de esta RV de manera significativa a largo plazo. CONCLUSIONES: Menos de la mitad de la RV total tras una infección COVID-19 está relacionada con la infección, y es más frecuente en los primeros 30 días. La RCovid tardía no es frecuente, pero dado el elevado número de pacientes que han sido infectados por COVID-19 se debe tener en cuenta.

RESUMO

Palladacycles are versatile organometallic compounds that show potential for therapeutic use. Here are described the synthesis and characterization of mono- and dinuclear palladacycles bearing diphosphines. Their biological effect was investigated in A2780, an ovarian-derived cancer line, and in normal dermal fibroblasts. The compounds displayed selective cytotoxicity toward the A2780 cell line. Compound 3 decreased the cell viability through cell cycle retention in G0/G1, triggered apoptosis through the intrinsic pathway, and induced autophagy in A2780 cells. Compound 9 also induced cell cycle retention, apoptosis, and cellular detachment. Notably, compound 9 induced the production of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS). Our work demonstrated that compound 3 enters A2780 cells via active transport, which requires energy, while compound 9 enters A2780 cells mostly passively. The potential effect of palladacycles in angiogenesis was investigated for the first time in an in vivo chorioallantoic membrane model, showing that while compound 3 displayed an antiangiogenic effect crucial to fighting cancer progression, compound 9 promoted angiogenesis. These results show that palladacycles may be used in different clinical applications where pro- or antiangiogenic effects may be desirable.
