摘要

Introducción. Los virus son los principales agentes etiológicos en las infecciones respiratorias agudas graves; un alto porcentaje queda sin diagnóstico viral. Objetivo. Describir la frecuencia de rinovirus y metapneumovirus en pacientes pediátricos de una unidad centinela de Mar del Plata con infección respiratoria aguda grave y resultado negativo para virus clásicos por inmunofluorescencia y biología molecular. Población y métodos. Se realizó un estudio descriptivo de corte transversal. Se evaluó la presencia de rinovirus y metapneumovirus por biología molecular en 163 casos negativos para panel respiratorio por técnicas de vigilancia referencial, durante todo el año 2015. Resultados. Se detectó rinovirus en el 51,5 % de los casos, metapneumovirus en el 9,8 % y coinfección rinovirus-metapneumovirus en el 6,1 %. Fueron negativos para ambos virus el 32,5 %. Conclusiones. La selección de muestras sin diagnóstico virológico permitió identificar rinovirus y metapneumovirus como agentes causales de infecciones respiratorias agudas graves pediátricas y su impacto en la morbimortalidad infantil y en nuestro sistema sanitario.


Introduction. Viruses are the main etiologic agents involved in severe acute respiratory tract infections; a viral diagnosis is not established in a high percentage of cases. Objective. To describe the frequency of rhinovirus and metapneumovirus in pediatric patients with severe acute respiratory infection and negative results for typical viruses by immunofluorescence and molecular biology at a sentinel unit of Mar del Plata. Population and methods. This was a descriptive, cross-sectional study. The presence of rhinovirus and metapneumovirus was assessed by molecular biology in 163 cases negative for respiratory panel by referral surveillance techniques throughout 2015. Results. Rhinovirus was detected in 51.5% of cases, metapneumovirus in 9.8%, and coinfection with rhinovirus and metapneumovirus in 6.1%. Results were negative for both viruses in 32.5%. Conclusions. The selection of samples without a viral diagnosis allowed us to identify rhinovirus and metapneumovirus as causative agents of severe acute respiratory infections in children and assess their impact on child morbidity and mortality and on our health care system

摘要

Introducción. Durante el 2020, la circulación de otros virus respiratorios fue inferior a lo acostumbrado. Es probable que, almodificarse las medidas de mitigación para la infección por el coronavirus 2019, dicha prevalencia haya aumentado en 2021. Objetivo. Estimar la prevalencia de virus respiratorioshabituales en pacientes de 0 a 5 años asistidos en Departamento de Urgencias de un hospital pediátrico de la Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires. Métodos. Estudio transversal con 348 pacientes que consultaronpor sospecha de enfermedad por el coronavirus 2019(COVID-19), en quienes se descartó dicha enfermedad y se realizó la pesquisa sistemática de virus respiratorios habitualesResultados. En el 40 % de los pacientes se identificó el virus sincicial respiratorio (VSR), un virus respiratorio habitual. La edad menor de 2 años se mostró como predictor independiente de VSR (razón de momios [OR]: 4,15; intervalos de confianza del 95 % [IC95 %]: 2,46-6,99). Conclusión. En la población estudiada, 40 % de los pacientes con sospecha de COVID-19 en quienes se descartó infección por SARS-CoV-2 presentaban infección por VSR.


Introduction. During 2020, circulation of other respiratory viruses was lower than usual. Most likely, as mitigation measures for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) were modified, their prevalence in 2021 may have increased. Objective. To estimate the prevalence of common respiratory viruses among patients aged 0­5 years seen at the Emergency Department of a children's hospital in the City of Buenos Aires. Methods. Cross-sectional study of 348 patients consulting for suspected COVID-19 in whom SARS-CoV-2 infection was ruled out and routine screening for common respiratory viruses was performed. Results. Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), a common respiratory virus, was identified in 40% of patients. Age younger than 2 years was an independent predictor of RSV (odds ratio [OR]: 4.15; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.46­6.99). Conclusion. In the study population, 40% of patients suspected of COVID-19 in whom SARS-CoV-2 infection was ruled out had RSV infection.

摘要

Las infecciones respiratorias agudas bajas (IRAB) continúan representando una importante causa de morbimortalidad en nuestro medio. El manejo normatizado de casos constituye una valiosa herramienta para enfrentarlas.Además de los aspectos relacionados con el diagnóstico y tratamiento de estas enfermedades, el análisis de factores de riesgo (tanto biológicos como socioambientales), desde una perspectiva local y actual, permitie implementar medidas efectivas de control y/o prevención, así como identificar aquellos pacientes susceptibles de presentar formas graves o complicaciones.Desde 1996 la Sociedad Argentina de Pediatría asumió el desafío de generar un documento que guíe el manejo integral de los pacientes con IRAB. En esta cuarta actualización se incluyen los últimos adelantos en el tema.


Acute lower respiratory infections (ARI) continue being an important cause of morbidity and mortality in our region. Standardized case management is a valuable tool to deal with them.In addition to aspects related to the diagnosis and treatment of these diseases, the analysis of risk factors (both biological and socio-environmental) from a local and current perspective, allows the implementation of effective control and/or prevention measures, as well as identifying those patients susceptible to presenting serious forms or complications.Since 1996, the Sociedad Argentina de Pediatría asumed the challenge of generating a document that guides the comprehensive management of patients with ARI. This fourth update includes the latest advances on the subject.

摘要

Las infecciones por coronavirus son habituales en los pacientes pediátricos. Por lo general, producen un cuadro clínico leve de infección del tracto respiratorio superior que no suele afectar a los pulmones, salvo en prematuros y niños con enfermedades crónicas de base. Excepcionalmente, afectan a otros órganos (corazón, cerebro, tracto gastrointestinal) e incrementan su gravedad.En relación con la coincidencia temporal con el inicio de la actual pandemia por el nuevo beta coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2), responsable de su enfermedad asociada (COVID-19), se presenta el caso clínico de un paciente de 5 años con fracaso multiorgánico y secuelas neurológicas por afectación bulbar y trombosis vascular ocasionados por un alfa coronavirus (CoV-NL63) debido a su gravedad y excepcionalidad


Coronavirus infections (CoV) are common in pediatric patients. In general, they produce a mild clinical presentation consisting of an upper respiratory tract infection that does not usually infect the lungs, with the exception of preterm infants and children with chronic diseases. These infections exceptionally affect other organs (heart, brain, gastrointestinal tract), thus increasing their severity.In relation to the temporal coincidence with the beginning of the current situation of pandemic by the new beta coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 responsible for its associated disease (COVID-19), this study presents a clinical case of a 5-year-old patient showing multiple-organ failure and neurological sequelae due to bulbar injury and vascular thrombosis caused by an alpha coronavirus (CoV-NL63) due to its severity and exceptionality

摘要

OBJETIVO. Comparar la gravedad de las infecciones respiratorias agudas bajas (IRAb) producidas por Adenovirus (ADV) entre los años 2015 y 2016, en el Hospital de Niños Roberto del Río. MÉTODOS. Se identificó a pacientes hospitalizados por IRAb por ADV, y se registró edad, sexo, días de hospitalización, ingreso a unidad de paciente crítico (UPC), necesidad de ventilación mecánica (VM), entre otros. Se comparó la evolución de los pacientes, y se analizó la relación entre gravedad y presencia de infecciones asociadas a atención de salud (IAAS). RESULTADOS. Se identificó 158 pacientes hospitalizados por IRAb por ADV. La relación hombre: mujer fue 6:4, con una edad promedio de 17.4 meses. La media de días de hospitalización fue de 9.88 el 2015 y 16.06 el 2016 (p=0.01). El promedio de días de oxigenoterapia fue de 5.86 el 2015 y 8.76 el 2016. Un 22.8% (n:36) de los pacientes ingresó a UPC, y el 20.25% (n:32) requirió VM. Un 41.8% de los casos (n:66) correspondió a IAAS. 3 pacientes fallecieron. CONCLUSIONES. Durante el 2016 hubo hospitalizaciones más prolongadas en comparación al 2015, sin diferencias estadísticamente significativas en relación a requerimientos de oxigenoterapia, VM y fallecimiento. La prolongación de la hospitalización se podría asociar a mayor presencia de IAAS.


OBJETIVE. To compare the severity of lower respiratory infections produced by Adenovirus between 2015 and 2016 at the Hospital de Niños Roberto del Río. METHODS. We identified patients hospitalized for lower respiratory tract infection for ADV and we recorded age, sex, days of hospitalization, admission to Intensive Care Unit (ICU), need for mechanical ventilation (MV), among others. The evolution of the patients between the two years were compared. The relationship between severity and the presence of nosocomial infections was also analyzed. RESULTS. We identified 158 hospitalized patients for ADV. The male:female ratio was 6:4, with an average age of 17.4 months. The mean of hospitalization days was 9.88 days in 2015 and 16.06 days in 2016 (p = 0.01). The average number of oxygen therapy days was 5.86 in 2015 and 8.76 in 2016. The 22.8% (n: 36) of cases required admission in the ICU, and 20.25% (n: 32) required MV. The 41.8% (n: 66) of cases corresponded to nosocomial infections. 3 patients died. CONCLUSIONS. During 2016, there were longer hospitalizations for adenovirus infections compared to 2015, without significant differences in relation to oxygen therapy, MV requirements and death. The prolongation of the hospitalization could be associated by the greater presence of nosocomial infections.

摘要

Introducción: Los virus constituyen las causas más frecuentes de infección respiratoria aguda, aunque el diagnóstico causal suele ser empírico dada la complejidad de su aislamiento. Objetivo: Caracterizar a pacientes menores de 5 años de edad con infecciones respiratorias agudas, según variables epidemiológicas, clínicas e imagenológicas. Métodos: Se efectuó una investigación descriptiva y transversal de 171 pacientes con infecciones respiratorias agudas y aislamiento viral mediante exudado nasofaríngeo profundo, egresados del Servicio de Neonatología del Hospital Docente Infantil Sur Antonio María Béguez César de Santiago de Cuba, desde el 2014 hasta el 2016, para lo cual se realizaron cálculos de frecuencias y porcentajes. Resultados: Predominaron los lactantes (57,9 %), el sexo masculino y los afectados con diagnósticos de neumonía (40,9 %) y bronquiolitis (28,0 %) por virus sincitial respiratorio y rinovirus. La supresión precoz de lactancia materna y tabaquismo fueron los factores de riesgo prevalentes. Tanto la fiebre como la tos y las secreciones nasales resultaron preponderantes, e infrecuentes las complicaciones. La consolidación alveolar prevaleció en pacientes con neumonía. Conclusiones: Se caracterizó epidemiológica y clínicamente a los pacientes con virus respiratorios y se evidenció discordancia con el predominio del patrón de infiltrado alveolar descrito en la bibliografía médica consultada.


Introduction: Viruses constitute the most frequent causes in acute respiratory infection, although the causal diagnosis is usually empiric given the complexity of its isolation. Objective: To characterize patients under 5 years with acute respiratory infections, according to epidemiological, clinical and imaging variables. Methods: A descriptive and cross-sectional investigation of 171 patients with acute respiratory infections and viral isolation was carried out by means of deep nasopharyngeal swab. They were discharged from the Neonatology Service of Antonio María Béguez César Southern Children Teaching Hospital in Santiago de Cuba, from 2014 to 2016, for which calculations of frequencies and percentages were carried out. Results: There was a prevalence of infants (57.9 %), the male sex and those affected patients with diagnosis of pneumonia (40.9 %) and bronchiolitis (28.0 %) due to respiratory syncytial virus and rhinovirus. The early suppression of breast feeding and nicotine addiction were the prevalent risk factors. Both fever and cough and the nasal secretions were preponderant, and the complications were infrequent. The alveolar consolidation prevailed in patients with pneumonia. Conclusions: Patients with respiratory virus were clinically and epidemiologically characterized and conflict with the pattern prevalence of alveolar infiltrates described in the consulted medical literature was evidenced.

摘要

Resumen Antecedentes y objetivo: Las enfermedades del sistema respiratorio son causa frecuente de prescripción de antibióticos. Actualmente se emplean nuevas tecnologías para su diagnóstico como el FilmArray Respiratory Panel. El objetivo de este estudio es identificar la correlación entre el diagnóstico y tratamiento de infecciones de vías respiratorias con el resultado de PCR para virus respiratorios. Material y métodos: Estudio descriptivo, transversal, retrospectivo, se incluyeron 134 pacientes atendidos en el Hospital Christus Muguerza en Saltillo, Coahuila. Para todos los casos se analizaron los resultados del panel y el tratamiento que recibieron los pacientes. Resultados: El 58 % recibió tratamiento antibiótico a su ingreso, el 13 % tratamiento combinado (antibiótico + antiviral), 27 % recibió tratamiento sintomático y el 2 % fue tratado con antiviral de primera instancia. Posterior al resultado el 38 % continuó con antibiótico, el 30 % con antibiótico y antiviral, 13.8 % se manejó con antiviral y el 18.2 % con tratamiento sintomático. Conclusión: A pesar de la alerta mundial por la resistencia a los antimicrobianos se sigue tratando a los pacientes con antibióticos, por una situación que se cree está influenciada por varios factores.


Abstract Background and objective: Respiratory system diseases represent one of the leading cause of prescription of antibiotics. At present, new technologies for the diagnosis are being used, including the FilmArray Respiratory Panel. The objective was to identify the correlation between the diagnosis and treatment of respiratory tract infections with the result of PCR for respiratory viruses. Material and methods: Descriptive, cross-sectional, restrospective study. 134 patients were included treated at the Christus Muguerza Hospital in Saltillo, Coahuila. For all cases, the positive results of this test and the treatment patients received were analyzed. Results: 58 % received antibiotic treatment at admission, 13 % received combined treatment (antibiotic + antiviral), 27 % received symptomatic treatment since their admission and 2 % whit antiviral. After receiving a positive result for respiratory viruses, 38 % continued with antibiotics, 30 % with antibiotics and antivirals, 13.8 % only managed with antivirals and 18.2% with symptomatic treatment. Conclusion: Although we are currently on global alert for resistance to antibiotics, there is a lack of awareness about the prescription of antibiotics, due to a situation which is believed to be influenced by several factors.

摘要

Con el objetivo de determinar el nivel de conocimiento que poseen las madres sobre los signos de alarma de las infecciones respiratorias agudas (IRA) en niños menores de 5 años que asistieron al Servicio Desconcentrado Hospital Universitario Pediátrico Dr. Agustín Zubillaga durante el mes de noviembre 2019, se realizó un estudio descriptivo transversal con 37 madres las cuales se caracterizaron por un promedio de edad de 29,2 ± 7,3 años, solteras (43,2%), con secundaria completa (27%) y empleadas (40,5%). El promedio de edad de los pacientes fue de 15,3 ± 6,2 meses, con predominio del sexo masculino (54%); durante el último año, 45,9% registraron entre 2-3 episodios de IRA. Sobre el nivel de conocimiento global de las madres en relación a los signos de alarma de las IRA se evidenció que en el 56,7% de las madres el nivel era regular. El nivel de conocimiento para las causas de las IRA fue insuficiente en el 48,6% de los casos. En relación a los signos de alarma de IRA identificadas por parte de las madres fueron, en orden de frecuencia, dificultad para respirar (91,8%), fiebre (81%), rechazo al alimento (78,3%) y respiración ruidosa (75,6%). En conclusión, es evidente que la mayoría de las madres conoce los principales signos de alarma de las IRA sin embargo se deben establecer estrategias de intervención destinadas a mejorar su conocimiento con el fin de que las madres reconozcan tempranamente los signos de alarma y por ende busquen atención en el momento oportuno(AU)


With the objective of determining the level of knowledge that mothers have about warning signs of acute respiratory infections (ARI) in children under 5 years of age who attended the Servicio Desconcentrado Hospital Universitario Pediátrico Dr. Agustín Zubillaga (November, 2019), a cross-sectional descriptive study was carried out with 37 mothers with an average age of 29.2 ± 7.3 years, 43.2% were single, with completed secondary school (27%) and employed (40.5%). Average age of patients was 15.3 ± 6.2 months with male predominance (54%); during the previous year, 45.9% had between 2-3 episodes of ARI. Level of knowledge of mothers about global warning signs of ARI was regular in 56.76% of cases. Regarding causes of ARI, level of knowledge was insufficient in 48.6% of mothers. Warning signs of ARI identified by the mothers were, in order of frequency, difficulty in breathing (91.8%), fever (81%), food rejection (78.3%) and loud breathing loud (75.6%). In conclusion, it is clear that most mothers know the main warning signs of ARI however intervention strategies should be established to improve knowledge in order for mothers to recognize early warning signs and therefore seek attention in a timely manner(AU)

摘要

Resumen Introducción: Los niños que reciben trasplante de precursores hematopoyéticos (TPH) pueden presentar infecciones respiratorias virales (IRV) durante episodios febriles. Los datos sobre su evolución clínica son escasos, así como la comparación de ellos con infecciones bacterianas (IB). Objetivo: Caracterizar la evolución clínica de pacientes con IRV, en comparación con IB en niños con TPH, cursando un episodio febril. Método: Estudio prospectivo en pacientes ≤ 18 años con cáncer y TPH ingresados por fiebre en el Hospital Luis Calvo Mackenna (2016-2019). Se realizó evaluación clínica y de laboratorio: hemocultivos, RPC para patógenos respiratorios (Filmarray®), cuantificación viral y medición de citoquinas en muestra nasal (Luminex®, 38 citoquinas). Se compararon los grupos IRV, IB y los de etiología no precisada (ENP) en relación con: infección respiratoria aguda (IRA), citoquinas nasales, ingreso a UCI, necesidad de ventilación mecánica, mortalidad y suspensión de antimicrobianos. Resultados: De 56 episodios febriles, 35 fueron IRV, 12 IB y 9 de ENP. Mediana de edad fue 8,5 años, 62% masculino. Un 94% de los casos IRV presentó IRA sintomática, versus 33% en los grupos IB y ENP (p < 0,001), con IRA baja en 69% de las IRV (p < 0,001). Rinovirus (54%) y coronavirus (15%) fueron las etiologías más frecuentemente detectadas. No hubo diferencias en citoquinas nasales entre los grupos IRV e IB. Ingreso a UCI: 11% del grupo IRV, 17% de IB y 11% de ENP (p = 0,88). Requirieron ventilación mecánica sólo 2 pacientes (p = 0,37) sin fallecimiento. Tras la detección viral respiratoria por RPC, se suspendió antimicrobianos en 26% de los casos con IRV (p = 0,04). Conclusión: Las IRV son frecuentes en niños con TPH y episodios febriles. La detección viral podría optimizar y racionalizar el uso de antimicrobianos en esta población.


Abstract Background: Children undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) can develop respiratory viral infections (RVI) during fever episodes. There are few data about clinical outcomes in RVI and compared to bacterial infections (BI) in this population. Aim: To determine clinical outcome of RVI, compared to BI in children with HSCT. Methods: Prospective study, patients ≤ 18 years with cancer and HSCT admitted with fever at a National Bone Marrow Transplant Center (Hospital Calvo Mackenna), Chile, (April-2016 to May-2019). Clinical assessment, laboratory tests, blood cultures, nasopharyngeal sample for multiplex-PCR (Filmarray®), viral loads by PCR and cytokine panel (Luminex®, 38 cytokines) were performed. The following outcomes were evaluated: upper/lower respiratory tract disease (RTD), admission to ICU, mechanical ventilation, mortality and antimicrobial withdrawal. Results: Of 56 febrile episodes, 35 (63%) were RVI, 12 (21%) BI and 9 (16%) with unknown etiology (UE). Median of age was 8.5 years, 62% male gender. Rhinovirus (54%) and coronavirus (15%) were the more frequent detected viruses. No significant differences in cytokine levels were observed between RVI and BI. 94% of RVI patients had symptomatic RTD, versus 33% in BI and 33% in UE group (p < 0.001), with lower-RTD in 69% of RVI group (p < 0,001). Admission to ICU was 11% in RVI, 17% in BI and 11% in UE group (p = 0.88); only 2 patients required mechanical ventilation (p = 0.37) and no mortality was reported. After an RVI was detected by PCR, antimicrobials were withdrawal in 26% of patients with RVI (p: 0.04). Conclusion: RVI are frequent etiologic agents in febrile episodes of patients with HSCT. Viral detection might help to rationalize the use of antimicrobials in this population.

摘要

Las infecciones respiratorias agudas (IRA) constituyen la causa más frecuente en las consultas de pediatría, en donde el diagnóstico enfermero juega un papel importante brindando una adecuada atención al usuario, lo cual es posible mediante la aplicación del método científico, denominado Proceso de Atención de Enfermería (PAE). Se establece como objetivo definir el diagnóstico enfermero, categoría diagnóstica, dominios y clases más frecuente de los diagnósticos enfermeros en pacientes pediátricos hospitalizados por infecciones respiratorias agudas en el Hospital Naval General HOSNAG ingresados en el 2017. La muestra estuvo conformada por 10 infantes. Se aplicó la técnica observacional, mediante la elaboración de una tabla de como instrumento, con las siguientes variables: dominios, clases presentes, categoría diagnóstica y tiempo de hospitalización, según la taxonomía II NANDA I. Como resultado se obtuvo que el 40% de los pacientes corresponden a cuadros de neumonía, el 90% de los pacientes tuvo alterado el dominio 11 seguridad-protección, específicamente en la clase 1 infección (100%) y 2 lesión física (100%), donde las etiquetas diagnósticas mayor observadas en los pacientes fueron por riesgo de infección y limpieza de vías aéreas en 100%. Así, es fundamental que el enfermero investigue y conozca las características clínicas de los pacientes, para contribuir en sus cuidados y recuperación(AU)


Acute respiratory infections (ARI) are the most frequent cause in pediatric consultations, where the nursing diagnosis plays an important role in providing adequate attention to the user, which is possible through the application of the scientific method, called the Care Process of Nursing (PAE). The objective is to define the nursing diagnosis, diagnostic category, domains and most frequent classes of nursing diagnoses in pediatric patients hospitalized for acute respiratory infections at Naval General Hospital admitted in 2017. The sample consisted of 10 infants. The observational technique was applied, through the elaboration of a table as an instrument, with the following variables: diagnostic category, domains, classes present, and hospitalization time, according to the II NANDA taxonomy. As a result, it was obtained that 40% of patients correspond to pneumonia, 90% of the patients had altered the domain 11 security-protection, specifically in class 1 infection (100%) and 2 physical lesion (100%), where the major diagnostic labels observed in the patients were due to risk of infection and cleaning of the airways in 100%. Thus, it is essential that the nurse investigate and know the clinical characteristics of the patients, to contribute to their care and recovery(AU)

摘要

Acute respiratory infections represent a world pediatric health burden. RSV, influenza and adenoviruses are among the most frequent causative agents. Adenoviruses usually produce upper respiratory infections, but they can be responsible for acute lower respiratory infection in children with severe clinical outcome. It is necessary a special clinical and epidemiological organization to avoid nosocomial adenovirus local outbreaks. Rapid diagnose, done by immunofluorescence assay and PCR, individual case isolation and supportive therapy are necessary for an appropriate management. The increasing immune compromised population represents a challenge for the adenovirus diagnosis with quantitative PCR and for nosocomial infection control and potential antiviral treatment.


Las infecciones respiratorias agudas son un problema prioritario mundial de morbimortalidad infantil y son causadas predominantemente por virus, entre los que destacan el virus respiratorio sincicial (VRS), virus influenza (FLU) y adenovirus (ADV). Los ADV normalmente causan infecciones respiratorias altas, pero pueden provocar infecciones bajas muy graves, que dejan secuelas y tienen alta letalidad. Requieren un manejo clínico y epidemiológico especial para evitar los graves brotes nosocomiales observados en Latinoamérica. Esto incluye un diagnóstico rápido hecho con técnicas de inmunodiagnóstico y reacción en cadena polimerasa (PCR), aislamiento individual del paciente y terapia de soporte. En pacientes inmunocomprometidos, la infección por ADV representa un gran desafío para el diagnóstico, con uso de PCR cuantitativo (qPCR) y eventual tratamiento antiviral. El objetivo de esta revisión es el de actualizar las propiedades, patogenia, epidemiología y diagnóstico del ADV, con énfasis en los cuadros respiratorios de mayor morbimortalidad que se producen en algunos niños.

摘要

ABSTRACT Bronchiectasis is a condition that has been increasingly diagnosed by chest HRCT. In the literature, bronchiectasis is divided into bronchiectasis secondary to cystic fibrosis and bronchiectasis not associated with cystic fibrosis, which is termed non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis. Many causes can lead to the development of bronchiectasis, and patients usually have chronic airway symptoms, recurrent infections, and CT abnormalities consistent with the condition. The first international guideline on the diagnosis and treatment of non-cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis was published in 2010. In Brazil, this is the first review document aimed at systematizing the knowledge that has been accumulated on the subject to date. Because there is insufficient evidence on which to base recommendations for various treatment topics, here the decision was made to prepare an expert consensus document. The Brazilian Thoracic Association Committee on Respiratory Infections summoned 10 pulmonologists with expertise in bronchiectasis in Brazil to conduct a critical assessment of the available scientific evidence and international guidelines, as well as to identify aspects that are relevant to the understanding of the heterogeneity of bronchiectasis and to its diagnostic and therapeutic management. Five broad topics were established (pathophysiology, diagnosis, monitoring of stable patients, treatment of stable patients, and management of exacerbations). After this subdivision, the topics were distributed among the authors, who conducted a nonsystematic review of the literature, giving priority to major publications in the specific areas, including original articles, review articles, and systematic reviews. The authors reviewed and commented on all topics, producing a single final document that was approved by consensus.


RESUMO Bronquiectasias têm se mostrado uma condição cada vez mais diagnosticada com a utilização da TCAR de tórax. Na literatura, a terminologia utilizada separa as bronquiectasias entre secundárias à fibrose cística e aquelas não associadas à fibrose cística, denominadas bronquiectasias não fibrocísticas neste documento. Muitas causas podem levar ao desenvolvimento de bronquiectasias, e o paciente geralmente tem sintomas crônicos de vias aéreas, infecções recorrentes e alterações tomográficas compatíveis com a condição. Em 2010, foi publicada a primeira diretriz internacional sobre diagnóstico e tratamento das bronquiectasias não fibrocísticas. No Brasil, este é o primeiro documento de revisão com o objetivo de sistematizar o conhecimento acumulado sobre o assunto até o momento. Como para vários tópicos do tratamento não há evidências suficientes para recomendações, optou-se aqui pela construção de um documento de consenso entre especialistas. A Comissão de Infecções Respiratórias da Sociedade Brasileira de Pneumologia e Tisiologia reuniu 10 pneumologistas com expertise em bronquiectasias no Brasil para avaliar criticamente as evidências científicas e diretrizes internacionais, assim como identificar aspectos relevantes à compreensão da heterogeneidade da doença bronquiectásica e a seu manejo diagnóstico e terapêutico. Foram determinados cinco grandes tópicos (fisiopatologia; diagnóstico; monitorização do paciente estável; tratamento do paciente estável; e manejo das exacerbações). Após essa subdivisão, os tópicos foram distribuídos entre os autores, que realizaram uma revisão não sistemática da literatura, priorizando as principais publicações nas áreas específicas, incluindo artigos originais e de revisão, assim como revisões sistemáticas. Os autores revisaram e opinaram sobre todos os tópicos, formando um documento único final que foi aprovado por todos.

摘要

Resumen Introducción: Las infecciones respiratorias agudas son una de las principales causas de morbimortalidad en adultos mayores y pacientes con enfermedades crónicas. Dentro de los agentes etiológicos responsables se encuentran los virus respiratorios humanos, tales como: virus sincitial respiratorio, virus parainfluenza y metapneumovirus. Objetivo: Realizar un estudio de diagnóstico diferencial de virus respiratorios que circulan y cocirculan en una población adulta. Método: Se realizó un estudio tipo piloto en pacientes mayores de 18 años, que presentaron signos y síntomas sugestivos de infección respiratoria aguda y cuyo cuadro clínico no sobrepasara los 15 días de evolución; se realizaron ensayos de reacción en cadena de la polimerasa de punto final con el uso de oligonucleótidos específicos para el diagnóstico molecular. Resultados: Se tipificaron 72 especímenes de pacientes con una edad de 51.33 ± 19.33 años, con predominio del sexo femenino (4.5:1); originarios en su totalidad de la Ciudad de México; solo 22 fueron positivos para virus respiratorios, siendo en su mayoría infecciones por metapneumovirus. Conclusiones: El conocimiento de las cepas virales circulantes en la población permitirá determinar cambios que puedan declarar una alerta epidemiológica llevando a la mejor toma de decisiones en beneficio de los pacientes.


Abstract Introduction: Acute respiratory infections are one of the main causes of morbidity and mortality in older adults and patients with chronic diseases. Among the responsible etiological agents are human respiratory viruses, such as: respiratory syncytial virus, parainfluenza virus and metapneumovirus. Objective: To carry out a differential diagnostic study of respiratory viruses circulating and co-circulating in an adult population. Methods: A pilot study was conducted in patients older than 18 years, who presented signs and symptoms suggestive of acute respiratory infection and whose clinical picture did not exceed 15 days of evolution; end-point polymerase chain reaction assays were performed with the use of specific oligonucleotides for molecular diagnosis. Results: 72 specimens of patients with an age of 51.33 ± 19.33 years, with a predominance of females (4.5:1); original inhabitants of Mexico City; only 22 were positive for respiratory viruses, being mostly metapneumovirus infections. Conclusions: The knowledge of the circulating viral strains in the population will allow to determine changes that can declare an epidemiological alert leading to the best decision making for the benefit of the patients.

摘要

Durante el invierno las infecciones respiratorias agudas bajas (IRAB) determinan un incremento en la demanda asistencial, afectando sobre todo a los niños más pequeños. El objetivo de la investigación fue describir las características clínicas, modalidades de tratamiento y evolución de los menores de 2 años hospitalizados en el Hospital Pediátrico-Centro Hospitalario Pereira Rossell por IRAB de etiología viral durante el invierno de 2014. Se realizó un estudio descriptivo, retrospectivo, describiendo las características de los menores de 2 años hospitalizados del 9/6 al 21/9/2014 por IRAB de probable etiología viral. Se describieron las características epidemiológicas y clínicas, el tratamiento realizado y la evolución de los pacientes. En el período evaluado egresaron 742 niños (34% de los egresos de la institución). Tenían una mediana de edad de 4 meses; 18% presentaba al menos un factor de riesgo de IRAB grave. Se identificó al virus respiratorio sincicial en 59,6%. La estadía hospitalaria tuvo una mediana de 4 días. En las salas de cuidados moderados se aplicó ventilación no invasiva a 46 niños, y oxigenación de alto flujo a 129 niños, logrando una mejoría clínica en el 87,0% y el 87,6% respectivamente. Ingresaron a unidades de cuidados intensivos 217 niños, 54% requirió asistencia ventilatoria mecánica. Dos pacientes fallecieron. En el período evaluado los niños pequeños con IRAB representaron una importante proporción de los egresos, con importante carga asistencial. La mayoría eran niños sin factores de riesgo. La aplicación de las técnicas de tratamiento en cuidados moderados fue efectiva, permitiendo disminuir la demanda de camas de cuidados intensivos.


During the winter, low acute respiratory infections (LARI) determine an increase in care demand, especially affecting younger children. The objective of the research was to describe the clinical characteristics, treatment modalities and evolution of children under 2 years of age hospitalized at the Hospital Pediátrico-Centro Hospitalario Pereira Rossell for viral etiology LARI during the 2014 winter. A descriptive, retrospective study was conducted, describing the characteristics of children under 2 years hospitalized between 9/6 and 9/21/2014 for LARI of probable viral etiology. The following features were described: epidemiological and clinical characteristics, treatment performed and patient's evolution. During the period evaluated, 742 children were discharged (34% of the institution's admissions). They had a median age of 4 months; 18% had at least one risk factor for severe LARI. Respiratory syncytial virus was identified in 59.6%. The hospital stay had a median of 4 days. In moderate care rooms noninvasive ventilation was applied to 46 children, and high flow oxygenation to 129 children, achieving clinical improvement in 87.0% and 87.6%, respectively. Two hundred and seventeen children were admitted 54% required mechanical ventilation. Two patients died. In the evaluated period small children with LARI represented a significant proportion of the discharges, with an important burden of care. The majority were children without risk factors. The application of treatment techniques in moderate care was effective, allowed a decrease in the demand for intensive care beds.


Durante o inverno, as infecções respiratórias agudas baixas (IRAB) determinam o aumento da demanda de cuidados, afetando especialmente as crianças menores. O objetivo da pesquisa foi descrever as características clínicas, as modalidades de tratamento e a evolução de crianças menores de dois anos hospitalizados no Hospital Pediátrico-Centro Hospitalario Pereira Rossell devido a IRAB de etiologia viral, durante o inverno de 2014. Foi realizado um estudo descritivo e retrospectivo, descrevendo as características das crianças menores de 2 anos hospitalizadas entre 9/6 e 21/9/2014 devido a IRAB de provável etiologia viral. Descreveram-se: características epidemiológicas e clínicas, tratamento realizado e evolução dos pacientes. Durante o período avaliado, 742 crianças foram hospitalizadas (34% dos ingressos da instituição). Tinham uma idade média de 4 meses; 18% tinham pelo menos um fator de risco para IRAB severa. O vírus sincicial respiratório foi identificado em 59,6%. A estadia hospitalaria teve uma mediana de 4 dias. Em salas de cuidados moderados, a ventilação não invasiva foi aplicada a 46 crianças e a oxigenação de alto fluxo a 129 crianças, atingindo melhora clínica em 87,0% e 87,6%, respectivamente. Foram internadas em unidades de terapia intensiva 217 crianças, 54% necessitaram de ventilação mecânica. Dois pacientes faleceram. No período avaliado, as crianças pequenas com IRAB representaram uma proporção significativa das despesas, com um carga importante de atendimento. A maioria carecia de fatores de risco. A aplicação de técnicas de tratamento em cuidados moderados foi eficaz, permitindo uma diminuição da demanda por leitos de terapia intensiva.

摘要

RESUMO Objetivo: Descrever o perfil clínico e o tratamento realizado nas crianças da etnia Guarani menores de cinco anos hospitalizadas por infecção respiratória aguda baixa (IRAB), residentes em aldeias nos estados do Rio de Janeiro ao Rio Grande do Sul. Métodos: Das 234 crianças, 23 foram excluídas (dados incompletos), sendo analisadas 211. Os dados foram extraídos dos prontuários por meio de formulário. Com base no registro de sibilância e padrão radiológico, a IRAB foi classificada em: bacteriana, viral e viral-bacteriana. Foi utilizada regressão multinomial para análise bivariada. Resultados: A mediana de idade foi de 11 meses. Do total da amostra, os casos de IRAB foram assim distribuídos: viral (40,8%), bacteriana (35,1%) e viral-bacteriana (24,1%). Verificou-se que 53,1% das hospitalizações não possuíam evidências clínico-radiológico-laboratoriais que as justificassem. Na análise de regressão multinomial, ao comparar a IRAB bacteriana com a viral-bacteriana, a chance de ter tosse foi 3,1 vezes maior na primeira (intervalos de 95% de confiança - IC95% 1,11-8,70) e de ter tiragem 61,0% menor (Odds Ratio - OR 0,39, IC95% 0,16-0,92). Na comparação da IRAB viral com a viral-bacteriana, a chance de ser do sexo masculino foi 2,2 vezes maior na viral (IC95% 1,05-4,69) e de ter taquipneia, 58,0% menor (OR 0,42, IC95% 0,19-0,92) na mesma categoria. Conclusões: Identificou-se maior proporção de processos virais do que processos bacterianos, bem como a presença de infecção viral-bacteriana. A tosse foi um sintoma indicativo de infecção bacteriana, enquanto a tiragem e a taquipneia apontaram infecção viral-bacteriana. Parte da resolubilidade da IRAB não grave ocorreu em âmbito hospitalar; portanto, propõe-se que os serviços priorizem ações que visem à melhoria da assistência à saúde indígena na atenção primária.


ABSTRACT Objective: To describe the clinical profile and treatment of Brazilian Guarani indigenous children aged less than five years hospitalized for acute lower respiratory infection (ALRI), living in villages in the states from Rio de Janeiro to Rio Grande do Sul. Methods: Of the 234 children, 23 were excluded (incomplete data). The analysis was conducted in 211 children. Data were extracted from charts by a form. Based on record of wheezing and x-ray findings, ALRI was classified as bacterial, viral and viral-bacterial. A bivariate analysis was conducted using multinomial regression. Results: Median age was 11 months. From the total sample, the ALRI cases were classified as viral (40.8%), bacterial (35.1%) and viral-bacterial (24.1%). It was verified that 53.1% of hospitalizations did not have clinical-radiological-laboratorial evidence to justify them. In the multinomial regression analysis, the comparison of bacterial and viral-bacterial showed the likelihood of having a cough was 3.1 times higher in the former (95%CI 1.11-8.70), whereas having chest retractions was 61.0% lower (OR 0.39, 95%CI 0.16-0.92). Comparing viral with viral-bacterial, the likelihood of being male was 2.2 times higher in the viral (95%CI 1.05-4.69), and of having tachypnea 58.0% lower (OR 0.42, 95%CI 0.19-0.92). Conclusions: Higher proportion of viral processes was identified, as well as viral-bacterial co-infections. Coughing was a symptom indicative of bacterial infection, whereas chest retractions and tachypnea showed viral-bacterial ALRI. Part of the resolution of non-severe ALRI still occurs at hospital level; therefore, we concluded that health services need to implement their programs in order to improve indigenous primary care.

摘要

Introducción: actualmente muchas personas sobrepasan las barreras cronológicas situadas como etapa de vejez, y esto puede transformarse en un problema si no se es capaz de brindar soluciones adecuadas a las consecuencias que del mismo se derivan. Objetivo: evaluar el proceso de atención a los adultos mayores con afecciones respiratorias tratados con fitofármacos. Materiales y métodos: se realizó un estudio observacional descriptivo de corte transversal en los 861 adultos mayores con diagnóstico de infección respiratoria aguda tratados con fitofármacos en los consultorios pertenecientes al Policlínico Dr. "Francisco Figueroa Véliz", del municipio Colón, provincia Matanzas, en el período comprendido entre julio y diciembre del 2015. Se analizaron los indicadores: adultos mayores con infección respiratoria aguda tratados con fitofármacos registrados en el consultorio, seguimiento médico a dichos pacientes, indicaciones correctas de fitofármacos, indicación de complementarios, inter-consultas realizadas y comportamiento de la certificación de calidad emitida a las producciones realizadas. Para la recolección de información se utilizó un instrumento que fue validado en su funcionamiento. Resultados: de los seis indicadores evaluados no alcanzaron los estándares establecidos el seguimiento médico a los adultos mayores con infección respiratoria aguda tratados con fitofármacos pues solo en el 95 % de las historias clínicas había constancia y la certificación de calidad ya que de los 220 lotes elaborados solo fueron analizados por control de la calidad el 81 % de ellos, por lo tanto el componente Proceso no es adecuado. Conclusiones: todas las unidades organizativas del área de salud presentan problemas con el proceso que se desarrolla (AU).


Background: currently many people surpass the chronological barriers limiting the old age stage, and this can become a problem if adequate solutions are not given to the consequences derived from it. Objective: to evaluate the health care processes of elder people treated with herbal medical products. Materials and methods: a cross-sectional, observational, descriptive study was carried out in 861 elder people with acute respiratory infection (ARI) treated with herbal medical products in the medical consultations belonging to the Policlinic "Dr. Francisco Figueroa Véliz" of the municipality of Colon, province of Matanzas, in the period July-December 2015. The indicators analyzed were elder people with acute respiratory infection treated with herbal medical products registered in the consultations, their medical follow-up, correct indication of herbal medical products, indication of complementary tests, inter- consultations and behavior of the quality certifications emitted for the elaborated production. For collecting information, it was used an instrument validated in its functioning. Results: of the six indicators evaluated, the follow-up to elder people with ARI treated with herbal medical products did not reach the average standards because in only 95 % of the clinical records it was registered; the quality certification was also deficient, because only the 81 % of the 220 lots elaborated was analyzed by quality control, therefore the component Process is not suitable. Conclusions: all the organizational units of the health area have problems with the developed process (AU).
