RESUMEN

The Chronic Disease Self-Management Program (CDSMP) focuses on a health promotion perspective with a salutogenic approach, reinforcing the pillars of self-efficacy. The aim of this study was to assess the impact of the CDSMP on Self-perceived Health (SPH) in disadvantaged areas of Asturias, España. The study included vulnerable adults with experience of chronic diseases for over six months, along with their caregivers. The intervention consisted of a six-session workshop led by two trained peers. SPH was evaluated by administering the initial item of the SF-12 questionnaire at both baseline and six months post-intervention. To evaluate the variable "Change in SPH" [improvement; remained well; worsening/no improvement (reference category)], global and disaggregated by sex multivariate multinomial logistic regression models were applied. There were 332 participants (mean = 60.5 years; 33.6% were at risk of social vulnerability; 66.8% had low incomes). Among the participants, 22.9% reported an improvement in their SPH, without statistically significant sex-based differences, while 38.9% remained in good health. The global model showed age was linked to decreased "improvement" probability (RRRa = 0.96), and the "remaining well" likelihood drops with social risk (RRRa = 0.42). In men, the probability of "remaining well" decreased by having secondary/higher education (RRRa = 0.25) and increased by cohabitation (RRRa = 5.11). Women at social risk were less likely to report "remaining well" (RRRa = 0.36). In conclusion, six months after the intervention, 22.9% of the participants had improved SPH. Age consistently decreased the improvement in the different models.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVES: Less than 5% of all harmful medicine-related incidents (MIs) or adverse drug reactions received by the Spanish Pharmacovigilance system are notified by Registered Nurses (RNs). The main objective of this study was to determine the impact of a multifaceted institutional intervention (MII) in patient safety on the reporting competence of medication incidents of hospital RNs. DESIGN: One-group pre-test-posttest design. SETTING: Tertiary, public, teaching hospital in Spain. PARTICIPANTS: A total of 139 RNs responded to pre- and postintervention questionnaires constituting the paired sample subjected to analysis. INTERVENTION: A MII, consisting of educational activities and materials, change in MI reporting form from paper to electronic and appointment of reporting support services, was designed and directed to all hospital RNs and midwifes. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Overall MIs reporting competence (OC) and its dimensions (attitudes, knowledge and skills) were measured through a synthetic variable (total OC value range: 34-170 points) by means of an electronic questionnaire. RESULTS: A statistically significant 7.96-point increase in OC from baseline to the final measurement was obtained (CI: 5.05-10.85). There was an increase of 7.38 points in the skills dimension (CI: 5.06-9.68). After the MII, 73.4% nurses improved their OC and 33.8% reported at least one no-harm MI postintervention compared to 4.4% pre-intervention (p < .001). A one-point increase in OC improved the probability of becoming reporter by 2.9% and a one-point increase in skills by 6.4%. CONCLUSION: MIs reporting competence among RNs increased after a multifaceted institutional intervention, due to an improvement in the skills dimension. The MII was also effective in raising both, the rate of RNs who become reporters and the number of no-harm MIs reported.

RESUMEN

OBJETIVE: Acute pancreatitis of biliary origin is a common gastrointestinal pathology, in which timely management still is the most important. The aims of this research is establish the socioeconomic impact in the current management of severe acute pancreatitis of biliary origin comparing two centers of the third level, one of high socioeconomic population and another of low in Bogotá, Colombia. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A retrospective, cross-sectional comparative study was conducted between January 2012 and December 2017, in two hospitals of Bogotá DC. We evaluated their socioeconomic characteristics, gender, time of evolution at the time of consultation, Marshall score, ICU stay, hospital stay, complications, surgical management and mortality. RESULTS: 101 patients from two different socioeconomic strata (high and low) were analyzed, where a 10 times higher risk of requiring a surgical procedure in the group of patients with low stratum was found, as well as a higher mortality compared with those of high stratum. (11.3% Vs 4.2%). There were also more complications in the low socioeconomic group with respect to the high, as in the exocrine failure (81.1% vs 31.3%) and the compartment syndrome (35.8% vs 4.2%). CONCLUSION: There is greater morbidity and mortality in patients of low socioeconomic status in the context of this pathology. This study can guide new research that increases the clarity of the socioeconomic impact on the outcomes of severe acute pancreatitis.


OBJETIVO: La pancreatitis aguda de origen biliar es una patología gastrointestinal común, en donde el tratamiento oportuno es el pilar más importante a pesar de sus discrepancias. El objetivo del estudio es establecer el impacto socioeconómico en el manejo actual de esta patología, comparando dos hospitales de tercer nivel de estrato socioeconómico alto y bajo de la ciudad de Bogotá, Colombia. MATERIALES Y MÉTODOS: Se realizó un estudio retrospectivo, comparativo de corte transversal entre enero de 2012 y diciembre de 2017, en dos hospitales de Bogotá D. C. Se evaluaron sus características socioeconómicas, género, tiempo de evolución al momento de la consulta, Marshall score, estancia en UCI, estancia hospitalaria, complicaciones, manejo quirúrgico y mortalidad. RESULTADOS: Se analizaron 101 pacientes de dos estratos socioeconómicos diferentes (alto y bajo). Se encontró que los pacientes de estrato bajo tienen un riesgo diez veces mayor de requerir un procedimiento quirúrgico. Asimismo, registraron una mayor mortalidad en comparación con pacientes de estrato alto (11,3% vs. 4,2%). También se evidenciaron más complicaciones en el grupo de nivel socioeconómico bajo con respecto al alto, como en la falla exocrina (81,1% vs. 31,3%) y el síndrome compartimental (35,8% vs. 4,2%). CONCLUSIÓN: Se encuentra mayor morbimortalidad en los pacientes de bajo nivel socioeconómico en el contexto de esta patología. Este estudio puede guiar a nuevas investigaciones acerca del impacto socioeconómico en los desenlaces de pancreatitis aguda severa.

RESUMEN

Trans-mediastinal herniation of a lung bullae is an extremely rare condition. Here we present a case of a 75-year-old patient with a clinical history of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and emphysema presenting with a right contralateral pneumothorax secondary to a trans-mediastinal herniated lung bullae. Herniation occurred through a mediastinal pleural defect; we call this event a paradoxical pneumothorax. To our knowledge this is the first report in the medical literature. The patient was successfully treated using a VATS approach with a right pleurodesis, a left thoracoscopic trans-mediastinal hernia reduction and bullectomy.

RESUMEN

Resumen La lesión de la mucosa asociada a cristales es un cuadro clínico importante en un subconjunto de pacientes urémicos a los que se les administran resinas de intercambio catiónico como el sulfonato de poliestireno sódico (Kayexalate) y sevelamer para el tratamiento de la hiperpotasemia y la hiperfosfatemia, respectivamente. La necrosis colónica en estos pacientes es rara, pero puede estar asociada a una lesión gastrointestinal mortal, con una tasa de mortalidad del 33%. Los secuestrantes de ácidos biliares son otro tipo de resina que teóricamente son biológicamente inertes. Se presentan dos casos de colitis asociada a cristales. El primer paciente tenía antecedentes de múltiples intervenciones quirúrgicas y patologías del tracto gastrointestinal, y estaba en manejo con colestiramina. Se realizó una sigmoidectomía en la que se encontraron varios focos de cristales. El segundo paciente tenía antecedente de enfermedad renal crónica que requirió el uso de Kayexalate y se presentó al servicio de urgencias con una hemorragia grave del tracto gastrointestinal inferior. Se realizó una colectomía parcial en la que se detectaron cambios morfológicos relacionados con el depósito de cristales. Las resinas pueden producir un amplio espectro de lesiones mortales de la mucosa, por lo que el diagnóstico precoz es fundamental para disminuir la mortalidad y mejorar el pronóstico. Sin embargo, es incierto si el consumo de colestiramina y Kayexalate, así como el depósito de sus cristales en el tracto gastrointestinal son el factor causal de la lesión de las mucosas. Por tanto, la presencia de resinas debería ayudar a establecer el diagnóstico correcto y el tratamiento médico oportuno para evitar resultados nocivos.


Abstract Crystal-associated mucosal injury is a crucial clinical picture in a subset of uremic patients who are given cation exchange resins such as sodium polystyrene sulfonate (Kayexalate) and sevelamer to treat hyperkalemia and hyperphosphatemia, respectively. Colonic necrosis in these patients is rare but may be associated with fatal gastrointestinal injury, with a mortality rate of 33%. Bile acid sequestrants are another type of resin that is theoretically biologically inert. Two cases of colitis associated with crystals are presented. The first patient had a history of multiple surgeries and pathologies of the gastrointestinal tract and was treated with cholestyramine. A sigmoidectomy was performed in which several crystal foci were found. The second patient had a history of chronic kidney disease requiring Kayexalate and attended the emergency department with severe lower GI bleeding. A partial colectomy was performed in which morphological changes related to the deposit of crystals were detected. Resins can cause a broad spectrum of malignant mucosal lesions, so early diagnosis is essential to reduce mortality and improve prognosis. However, it is uncertain whether the consumption of cholestyramine and kayexalate, as well as the deposition of their crystals in the GI tract, are the causative factor of mucosal damage. Therefore, resins should help establish the correct diagnosis and prompt medical treatment to avoid harmful results.

RESUMEN

AIM: To design and perform a face and content validation of a questionnaire to measure the competence of hospital RN to report medication incidents. METHODS: Content and face questionnaire validation descriptive study. A review of the literature was performed for the creation of ítems. A panel of six experts assessed the relevance of the inclusion of each ítem in the questionnaire by calculating the position index; ítems with position index >0.70 were selected. The questionnaire was piloted by 59 RN. Finally, a meeting was convened with experts, in order to reduce the length of the piloted questionnaire through review, discussion and decision by consensus on each item. RESULTS: From the literature review, a battery of 151 ítems grouped into three elements of competence: attitudes, knowledge and skills was created. 52.9% (n=80) of the ítems received a position index > 0.70. The response rate in the pilot study was 40.65%. The median time to complete the questionnaire was 23:35minutes. After reduction by the experts, the final questionnaire comprised 45 ítems grouped into 32 questions. CONCLUSIONS: The NORMA questionnaire, designed to explore the competence of hospital RN to report medication incidents, has adequate face and content validity and is easy to administer, enabling its institutional implementation.

RESUMEN

La intususcepción en adultos es una condición inusual, que corresponde al 5 % de todos los casos de obstrucción intestinal y carece de síntomas específicos. El diagnóstico preoperatorio sigue siendo un desafío para el cirujano y el tratamiento óptimo de esta condición es controvertido. Se presentan dos casos clínicos de intususcepción con diferente etiología. El primero sufrió una intususcepción colocólica por un adenocarcinoma y, el segundo, una intususcepción ileocólica por un tumor del estroma gastrointestinal (GIST). Los casos fueron diagnosticados preoperatoriamente mediante tomografía axial de abdomen. En ambos casos, se practicó una resección quirúrgica oncológica. El estudio de histopatología confirmó el diagnóstico definitivo. Se describen el diagnóstico y el tratamiento de la intususcepción como causa de obstrucción intestinal en los adultos, y se presenta una revisión de la literatura científica


Intestinal intussusception in adults is a rare finding, with non specific symptoms and is responsible for 5% of intestinal obstructions. Pre-operative diagnosis remains a challenge for surgeons and the optimal treatment is still in debate. We present two cases of intestinal intussusception caused by different etiologies; the first is a colon-colonic intussusception caused by an adenocarcinoma, and the second is an ileo-colonic intussusception caused by a gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST). Both cases were diagnostic pre-operatively by abdominal CT. Oncologic surgical resection was performed in both cases. Histopathology report confirmed neoplastic tissues. We describe the diagnosis and treatment of intestinal intussusception as a cause of intestinal obstruction in the adult population

RESUMEN

Introducción. Se han reportado hallazgos incidentales durante la cirugía bariátrica, como tumores gástricos (0,6 a 0,8 %), entre los cuales el más frecuente es el del estroma gastrointestinal (GIST). Es importante tener en cuenta que el pilar del tratamiento de este tipo de tumores es la cirugía con márgenes negativos. Métodos y resultados. Se llevó a cabo un estudio retrospectivo, descriptivo y observacional, desde enero de 2013 hasta junio de 2016; durante este periodo, 320 pacientes fueron sometidos a cirugía bariátrica, manga gástrica en 250 y derivación gástrica en 70, en la Clínica Universitaria El Bosque. En tres de ellos, dos con manga gástrica y uno con derivación gástrica, se encontró incidentalmente un tumor gástrico del estroma gastrointestinal (GIST) con confirmación por histopatología; mediante escisión, se obtuvieron bordes negativos para tumor, no se presentaron complicaciones ni se prolongó la estancia hospitalaria. Discusión y conclusiones. Teniendo en cuenta la ubicación de la lesión, es posible la intervención laparoscópica de los tumores gástricos del estroma gastrointestinal de 2 cm o más, encontrados durante un procedimiento de cirugía bariátrica


Introduction: Incidental findings are reported in bariatric surgery, such as gastric tumors in 2% to 8%, gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) being the most frequent. The pillar of handling this type of tumor is surgery with negative margins. Methods and Results: This is a descriptive retrospective study covering the period January 2013 to June 2016 during which 320 patients underwent bariatric surgery, 250 gastric sleeve and 70 gastric bypass, among which three had the incidental finding of gastric GIST confirmed by pathology; two patients had gastric sleeve and one gastric bypass; resection of the tumor was carried out obtaining adequate negative margins with no morbidities and no prolonged hospital stay. Discussion and Conclusions: Gastric sleeve and gastric bypass are the preferred surgical options in bariatric surgery, allowing resection of the incidentally found gastrointestinal stromal tumors for curative treatment, without altering the outcome or purpose of the bariatric surgery procedure

RESUMEN

Los líquenes y briófitos son organismos útiles en la determinación de la calidad del aire. En la ciudad de Tunja (departamento de Boyacá, Colombia), es evidente la escasez de zonas verdes por el aumento en las construcciones, lo que contribuye al detrimento de la pureza atmosférica y trae consigo el deterioro de la salud de la ciudadanía y la reducción de los hábitats y poblaciones de las plantas criptógamas. Mediante la determinación del índice de Pureza Atmosférica (IPA) se identificaron las zonas con mayor influencia de contaminantes del aire. Parmotrema austrosinense corresponde a la especie más frecuencia; y la estación de la Normal Femenina, con IPA de 52,2196 es influenciada por los contaminantes atmosféricos; las estaciones de los Parques Santander y Semáforos son las más contaminadas (IPA 8,5333) con solo dos especies (Heterodermia albicans y Lobariaceae sp.). Se destaca la evaluación en la Reserva Forestal Protectora El Malmo con un IPA de 34,0281 y 23 especies. Los valores de IPA se agruparon en zonas de isocontaminación para ser representados cartográficamente. El uso de organismos bioindicadores es una estrategia natural y económica que permite zonificar las urbes y enfocar planes para revegetalización de ciudades, generando la disminución del impacto de contaminantes en el aire con el fin de mejorar la calidad de vida de los pobladores.


Lichens and bryophytes are useful organisms in air quality determination. In the city of Tunja (Boyacá, Colombia), is evident the lack of green areas by the increase of building, which contributes to the detriment of the atmospheric purity making unhealthy conditions to the citizens and habitats and population reduction of cryptogamic plants. Using the Index of Atmospheric Purity (IAP) we identified the greater influence air pollutants areas. Parmotrema austrosinense has the highest frequency; and the Normal Femenina station with an IAP of 52,2196 is an atmospheric pollutants influenced area; Parque Santander and Semáforos, are the most contaminated (IAP 8,5333) with only two species (Heterodermia albicans and Lobariaceae sp.). We highlight the evaluation in the Reserva Forestal Protectora El Malmo with an IAP of 34,0281 and 23 species. IAP values were grouped in isocontamination areas to be represented cartographically. The use of bioindicators organisms is a natural and economic strategy allowing us to mapping urban areas and make revegetation cities designs, generating the contaminants diminution air impact improving the citizen's life quality.
