ABSTRACT

Objetivo: Conocer el grado de satisfacción de los pacientes o sus familiares/cuidadores con respecto a la atención recibida mediante Telefarmacia desde la Consulta de Atención Farmacéutica a Pacientes Externos de un Servicio de Farmacia Hospitalaria de primer nivel. Métodos: Estudio transversal de 5 meses de duración. Se incluyeron todos los pacientes atendidos en las Consultas de Atención Farmacéutica de manera telemática con dispensación informada de la medicación entre los meses de mayo y septiembre de 2020. Para medir el grado de satisfacción se utilizó una encuesta tipo Likert de 10 niveles. Los datos de pacientes se obtuvieron a partir del aplicativo Historia Clínica electrónica (IANUS®) y del software Silicon®. Para comparaciones entre grupos se utilizó el test t de Student de comparación de medias y el test ANOVA. Resultados: Se realizaron un total de 392 encuestas de satisfacción a 209 mujeres (53,3%) y 183 hombres (46,7%) de edad media 59,8 años (s.d. 18,5), de las cuáles 231 (58,9%) eran pacientes y 161 (41,1%) cuidadores/familiares. Se observó una puntuación de satisfacción global de 9,88 (s.d. 0,4). No se observaron diferencias estadísticamente significativas entre la puntuación obtenida de los pacientes o cuidadores/familiares (p=0,102). Conclusiones: La consulta telemática de atención farmacéutica constituye una valiosa herramienta que satisface las necesidades asistenciales de los pacientes y sus familiares y supone una oportunidad de mejora en la atención sanitaria integrada a distancia. Desde nuestra experiencia, la telefarmacia se posiciona como una importante estrategia para evitar desplazamientos al centro sanitario, con la consecuente mejoría en la calidad de vida de nuestros pacientes.

Objective: To ascertain the degree of satisfaction of patients or their relatives/caregivers with the care received via Telepharmacy at the Outpatient Pharmaceutical Care Clinic of a top-tier Hospital Pharmacy Service. Methods: Cross-sectional study lasting 5 months. All patients cared for online by the Pharmaceutical Care Clinics with informed dispensation of medication between May and September 2020 were included. A 10-point Likert-type survey was used to measure the level of satisfaction. Patient data was obtained from the electronic medical record program (IANUS®) and the Silicon® software. Student’s mean comparison t-test and ANOVA test were used for comparisons between groups. Results: A total of 392 satisfaction surveys were conducted on 209 women (53.3%) and 183 men (46.7%) with an average age of 59.8 (s.d. 18.5), of whom 231 (58.9%) were patients and 161 (41.1%) caregivers/relatives. An overall satisfaction score of 9.88 (s.d. 0.4) was observed. No statistically significant differences were observed between the score obtained from patients and that obtained from caregivers/relatives (p=0.102). Conclusions: The online pharmaceutical care clinic is a valuable tool that meets the care needs of patients and their relatives and is an opportunity for improvement in remote comprehensive healthcare. From our experience, telepharmacy is an important strategy in avoiding travel to the health centre, with the subsequent improvement in the quality of life of our patients. (AU)

ABSTRACT

Objetivo: Describir la aplicabilidad de la herramienta “Prácticas seguras en pacientes con medicamentos de uso crónico” en el ámbito de la atención sociosanitaria. Métodos: Estudio observacional transversal (junio 2018) de pacientes institucionalizados en residencia de pacientes asistidos, cuya atención sociosanitaria se realiza desde el Servicio de Farmacia de un hospital de primer nivel. Se aplicaron 18 prácticas seguras a cada tratamiento. Resultados: 153 pacientes incluidos, 69,3% mujeres, mediana edad 83 años (51-101), mediana medicamentos prescritos 12 (1-28). No fueron de aplicación a nuestra población 4 criterios de 18: PG10 (bifosfonatos), PO2 (fentanilo liberación rápida), PG11 (teriparatida por un tiempo superior a 2 años) y PG03 (buprenorfina como deshabituación en pacientes a tratamiento con otros opioides). 14 criterios de 18 detectan prescripciones relacionadas con los criterios de seguridad (monitorizar) y 8 de 18 criterios detectan prescripciones de riesgo en la población, siguiendo la siguiente distribución: 3 PG2 (AAS dosis >150 mg), 2 PG5 (AINE+antitrombótico), 2 PG6 (Triple Whammy), 3 PG7 (2 SRRA), 4 PG8 (2 o más anticolinérgicos), 1 PG9.1 (R/G/D+ anticolinérgicos), 2 PG9.2 (memantina+anticolinérgicos), 1 PO1 (opioide menor+mayor).Conclusiones: La utilización de esta herramienta garantiza la continuidad asistencial de los pacientes, constituye un punto de partida para el desarrollo de un programa de atención farmacéutica sociosanitaria y fomenta la colaboración entre los diferentes niveles asistenciales. A la vista de los resultados, existe una oportunidad de mejora a la hora de rediseñar estos criterios para ser aplicados a esta población institucionalizada.(AU)


Objetive: To describe the applicability of the tool “Safe practices in patients with chronic medicines” in social healthcare.Method: Cross-sectional observational study (June 2018) that included all patients admitted to a care home, whose social healthcare is provided by the Pharmacy Service at a top-tier hospital. Results: The study included 153 patients, 69.3% of whom were female. The average age was 38 (51-101) years. The mean medicines prescribed were 12 (1-28). A total of 4 criteria out of 18 did not apply to our study population: PG10 (biphosphonates), PO2 (rapid release fentanyl), PG11 (teriparatide for a period greater than 2 years) and PG03 (buprenorphine as detoxification in patients treated with other opioids). 14 criteria out of 18 detect treatments related to safety criteria (monitor) and 8 of 18 criteria detect high-risk prescriptions in the population according to the following distribution: 3 PG2 (AAS dose >150 mg), 2 PG5 (NSAID + antithrombotic), 2 PG6 (Triple Whammy), 3 PG7 (2 SSRI), PG8 (2 or more anticholinergics), 1 PG9.1 (R/G/D+anticholinergics), 2 PG9.2 (memantine+anticholinergics), 1 PO1 (strong+weak opioids). Conclusions: The use of this tool guarantees the continuity of care of patients, constitutes a starting point for the development of a pharmaceutical care programme in care homes. and encourages collaboration between the different levels of care. In view of the results, there is an opportunity for improvement when it comes to redesigning these criteria to be applied to this institutionalized population.(AU)

ABSTRACT

La monitorización es crucial en el cuidado del paciente crítico. Detecta disfunciones orgánicas y provee orientación en el abordaje terapéutico. Los intensivistas monitorizan habitualmente la función de varios sistemas orgánicos y el cerebro no es la excepción. La monitorización EEG continuo es una vía no invasiva e ininterrumpida para valorar la actividad eléctrica cortical con aceptable resolución espacial y excelente resolución temporal. La efectividad diagnóstica del estado epiléptico no convulsivo como causa de compromiso de la consciencia no explicable por otras causas se ha incrementado con el empleo del EEG continuo; sin embargo, no es la única indicación para valorar la actividad eléctrica cortical cerebral. Este manuscrito intenta resumir las indicaciones, modos de empleo y metodología para el empleo del monitoreo electroencefalográfico continuo en la unidad de cuidados intensivos con la finalidad que el intensivista se familiarice con el mismo

Intensivists closely monitor the function of various organ systems, and the brain is no exception. Continuous EEG monitoring is a noninvasive and uninterrupted way of assessing cerebral cortical activity with good spatial and excellent temporal resolution. The diagnostic effectiveness of non-convulsive status epilepticus as a cause of unexplained consciousness disorder has increased the use of continuous EEG monitoring in the neurocritical care setting. However, non-convulsive status epilepticus is not the only indication for the assessment of cerebral cortical activity. This study summarizes the indications, usage and methodology of continuous EEG monitoring in the intensive care unit, with the aim of allowing practitioners to become familiarized the technique

The diagnostic effectiveness of non-convulsive status epilepticus as a cause of unexplained consciousness disorder has increased the use of continuous EEG monitoring in the neurocritical care setting. However, non-convulsive status epilepticus is not the only indication for the assessment of cerebral cortical activity. This study summarizes the indications, usage and methodology of continuous EEG monitoring in the intensive care unit, with the aim of allowing practitioners to become familiarized the technique.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVES: To report the short- and long-term complications and clinical outcomes of a cohort of dogs managed for gastric dilatation-volvulus using a modified right-sided tube gastropexy technique. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Retrospective case series. RESULTS: Of 31 dogs treated, 29 (93·5%) had an excellent short-term outcome, and gastric dilatation-volvulus did not recur in any dog. Twenty-six dogs (84%) were initially fed via the gastrostomy tube postoperatively; three (9·7%) suffered a major complication including septic peritonitis (n=1), and premature tube removal (n=2). Fourteen dogs (45·1%) had minor complications including mild, self-limiting discharge from the stoma site in 13. CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE: Modified tube gastropexy using a mushroom-tipped silicone catheter is an effective and safe surgical method for the management of gastric dilatation-volvulus. The gastrostomy tube allowed early enteral feeding and easy administration of medications, including gastroprotectants.
