Consensus document of the Spanish Society of Paediatric Infectious Diseases (SEIP) and the Spanish Society of Paediatric Intensive Care (SECIP) for the diagnosis and treatment of central venous catheter-related infections in paediatric care.

Intravascular devices are essential for the diagnostic and therapeutic approach to multiple diseases in paediatrics, and central venous catheters (CVCs) are especially important. One of the most frequent complications is the infection of these devices, which is associated with a high morbidity and mortality. These infections are highly complex, requiring the use of substantial resources, both for their diagnosis and treatment, and affect vulnerable paediatric patients admitted to high-complexity units more frequently. There is less evidence on their management in paediatric patients compared to adults, and no consensus documents on the subject have been published in Spain. The objective of this document, developed jointly by the Spanish Society of Paediatric Infectious Diseases (SEIP) and the Spanish Society of Paediatric Intensive Care (SECIP), is to provide consensus recommendations based on the greatest degree of evidence available to optimize the diagnosis and treatment of catheter-related bloodstream infections (CRBSIs). This document focuses on non-neonatal paediatric patients with CRBSIs and does not address the prevention of these infections.

[Translated article] Standard and Expanded Series Patch Testing Update by the Spanish Contact Dermatitis and Skin Allergy Research Group (GEIDAC).

After the meeting held by the Spanish Contact Dermatitis and Skin Allergy Research Group (GEIDAC) back in October 2021, changes were suggested to the Spanish Standard Series patch testing. Hydroxyethyl methacrylate (2% pet.), textile dye mixt (6.6% pet.), linalool hydroperoxide (1% pet.), and limonene hydroperoxide (0.3% pet.) were, then, added to the series that agreed upon in 2016. Ethyldiamine and phenoxyethanol were excluded. Methyldibromoglutaronitrile, the mixture of sesquiterpene lactones, and hydroxyisohexyl 3-cyclohexene (Lyral) were also added to the extended Spanish series of 2022.

[Translated article] Recommendations from the Spanish Academy of Dermatology and Venereology Psoriasis Working Group on the Management of Patients with Cancer and Psoriasis.

Several studies suggest that patients with psoriasis have a higher incidence of neoplasms, especially of the skin, which could be associated with the use of therapies to treat psoriasis. Furthermore, the evidence available on the safety profile of some treatments in this context, and the management of these patients is scarce, which is why clinical practice guidelines with recommendations on the management of psoriasis in cancer patients are ambiguous. This study provides recommendations on the management and use of the therapies currently available for these patients. They are the result of a Delphi consensus reached by 45 dermatologists of the Spanish Academy of Dermatology and Venereology Psoriasis Working Group, and their goal is to help specialists in the field in their decision-making processes.

Improvements in the Management of Patients With Generalized Pustular Psoriasis in Spain: Recommendations From a Group of Experts. / Mejoras en la atención al paciente con psoriasis pustulosa generalizada en España: recomendaciones de un grupo de expertos.

This consensus document analyzed the management and emotional journey of patients with GPP (generalized pustular psoriasis), and the desirable course of the disease while detecting critical points and translating them into needs and recommendations. This project was conducted in 3 phases with participation from an advisory committee (n=8), an expert panel (n=15) and patients with GPP (n=6). The patients' disease progression was heterogeneous due to disease variations, different health care models implemented and available resources, and the lack of diagnostic and treatment guidelines. A total of 45 different recommendations have been made to optimize management and address the emotional component of these patients. Five of them stand out for their impact and viability. Therefore, a roadmap of priorities has been made generally available to improve the management of patients with GPP.

First Mexican Consensus on Crohn's disease.

INTRODUCTION: Crohn's disease (CD) is a subtype of chronic and incurable inflammatory bowel disease. It can affect the entire gastrointestinal tract and its etiology is unknown. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this consensus was to establish the most relevant aspects related to definitions, diagnosis, follow-up, medical treatment, and surgical treatment of Crohn's disease in Mexico. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Mexican specialists in the areas of gastroenterology and inflammatory bowel disease were summoned. The consensus was divided into five modules, with 69 statements. Applying the Delphi panel method, the pre-meeting questions were sent to the participants, to be edited and weighted. At the face-to-face meeting, all the selected articles were shown, underlining their level of clinical evidence; all the statements were discussed, and a final vote was carried out, determining the percentage of agreement for each statement. RESULTS: The first Mexican consensus on Crohn's disease was produced, in which recommendations for definitions, classifications, diagnostic aspects, follow-up, medical treatment, and surgical treatment were established. CONCLUSIONS: Updated recommendations are provided that focus on definitions, classifications, diagnostic criteria, follow-up, and guidelines for conventional medical treatment, biologic therapy, and small molecule treatment, as well as surgical management.

Consensus update on the therapeutic approach to patients with neurogenic detrusor overactivity.

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES: A Consensus document on the management of patients with neurogenic detrusor overactivity (NDO) was published in 2018. The present document aims to update its recommendations regarding treatment considering the new evidence available, and to contribute to the standardization of the management of this disorder. METHODS: The methodology used was based on a systematic review and the Nominal Group Technique. The clinical coordinator (CC) and the Consensus update group (CUG) defined the questions to be updated and carried out a systematic review to identify the new available evidence. After being evaluated by the expert panel, the relevant recommendations were updated and agreed in a consensus meeting. RESULTS: A total of 3210 publications were identified and 26 publications that met the inclusion criteria were included. The CUG updated 18 recommendations on the therapeutic approach to NDO. Unanimous consensus was reached on all of them. CONCLUSIONS: Previous recommendations need to be revised due to the availability of new drugs, the increasing evidence on the use of botulinum toxin or neuromodulation procedures, and new surgical options.

Iberia Consensus on Strategies to Prevent and Manage Irritation by Topical Retinoids in Facial and Trunk Acne. / Consenso Iberia sobre estrategias de prevención y manejo de la irritación por retinoides tópicos en acné localizado en cara y tronco.

OBJECTIVE: To assess the level of agreement on various prevention and management strategies for irritation caused by topical retinoids in facial and trunk acne in an attempt to alleviate it and minimize treatment discontinuations as much as possible. METHOD: After reviewing the scientific medical literatura currently available, 4 different areas of uncertainty in the management of irritation caused by topical retinoids in acne were identified. A questionnaire with 34 recommendations was created and evaluated by a group of 133 dermatologists (Delphi methodology). RESULTS: In 82.3% of the recommendations (28 out of 34), some level of agreement was reached (≥85% agreement in 22 recommendations and≥70% agreement in 6). The results with the highest level of agreement focused on specific patient education strategies (explaining that irritation is an expected reaction at the beginning of treatment and tends to decrease over time), gradual and/or spaced application of topical retinoids (at night time to prevent and/or reduce skin irritation), and the importance of using adjuvant products, specific for acne-prone skin, hydration, photoprotection, and skin cleansing. These recommendations reflect a comprehensive approach to managing irritation associated with topical retinoids and promoting long-term adherence. CONCLUSIONS: Skin irritation caused by topical retinoids in facial and trunk acne is an expected, mild, and controllable reaction if proper prevention and management guidelines are followed, meaning that it should not be a reason for treatment discontinuation.

Consensus on the diagnostic algorithm for chronic nodular prurigo. / Consenso sobre el algoritmo diagnóstico del prurigo crónico nodular.

Chronic nodular prurigo (CNP) is a chronic dermatological disease characterized by the presence of chronic pruritus and pruritic nodular lesions. The aim of this study was to reach consensus among a group of experts based on a non-systematic literature review and an algorithm for the clinical diagnosis of CNP. The resulting algorithm is structured in 3 blocks: 1) early identification of the patient with a possible diagnosis of CNP; 2) diagnosis and assessment of CNP; and 3) categorization of CNP (identification of the underlying causes or associated comorbidities). We believe that this clinical algorithm can facilitate the correct diagnosis of patients with CNP. Additionally, it raises awareness on the need for a multidisciplinary approach and specific treatment of CNP, steps of paramount importance to make better therapeutic decisions.

Consenso sobre criterios y conjunto mínimo de datos para la derivación de pacientes candidatos a teleconsulta de nutrición enteral domiciliaria: proyecto TElENUT / Consensus on criteria and minimum data set for the referral of candidate patients for home enteral nutrition teleconsultation: TELENUT project

Introducción: la teleconsulta es una herramienta asistencial útil en el manejo multidisciplinar de pacientes con indicación de nutrición enteral domiciliaria (NED). El empleo de diferentes herramientas de teleconsulta de NED, como ocurre en el Sistema Andaluz de Salud (SAS), conlleva heterogeneidad en los procesos de derivación entre los servicios de Atención Primaria (AP) y hospitalaria en una misma región. Objetivos: consensuar perfiles de pacientes y conjunto de datos mínimos necesarios para garantizar una derivación adecuada a la teleconsulta de NED, independientemente de la herramienta existente. Estos aspectos consensuados en Andalucía pueden servir de referencia en otras regiones. Métodos: se siguieron tres pasos consecutivos: a) revisión no sistemática de la literatura indexada sobre la teleconsulta en nutrición clínica en España; b) encuesta para conocer la implementación y las necesidades no satisfechas de las herramientas de teleconsulta en los hospitales públicos andaluces; y c) reuniones de trabajo y consenso de 14 profesionales sanitarios de AP (n = 4) y endocrinología y nutrición clínica hospitalaria (n = 10). Resultados: se consensuaron tres formularios de derivación en los que se definieron tres perfiles de pacientes, con el correspondiente conjunto mínimo de datos necesario para solicitar la teleconsulta de NED. El equipo de AP debe proporcionar este conjunto mínimo de datos al especialista en nutrición clínica a través de una herramienta de teleconsulta, implementada en el SAS. Conclusiones: tres formularios consensuados entre profesionales sanitarios involucrados en el proceso de derivación sirven para estandarizar la solicitud de teleconsulta de NED entre equipos asistenciales en función de perfiles de pacientes.(AU)

Introduction: teleconsultation is a useful healthcare tool in the multidisciplinary management of patients with indications of home enteral nutrition (HEN). The use of different teleconsultation platforms, as it happens in the Andalusian Health System (SAS), results in heterogeneous referral processes between Primary Care and hospital services in the same region. Objectives: to establish a consensus on patient profiles and the minimum data set necessary to guarantee an adequate referral to NED teleconsultation regardless of the existing platform. These agreed aspects in Andalusia can serve as a reference in other regions. Methods: three consecutive steps were followed: a) non-systematic review of the indexed literature on teleconsultation in clinical nutrition in Spain; b) survey to know the implementation and unmet needs of teleconsultation platforms in Andalusian public hospitals; and c) working meetings and consensus of 14 health professionals of Primary Care (n = 4) and endocrinology and hospital clinical nutrition (n = 10). Results: three referral forms were agreed in which three patient profiles were defined, with the corresponding minimum set of data necessary to request NED teleconsultation. The Primary Care team should provide this set of data to the clinical nutrition specialist via a teleconsultation platform, implemented in the SAS. Conclusions: three agreed forms between healthcare professionals involved in the referral process serve to standardize the request for teleconsultation of NED between healthcare teams based on patient profiles.(AU)

Standard and Expanded Series Patch Testing Update by the Spanish Contact Dermatitis and Skin Allergy Research Group (GEIDAC). / Actualización de la batería estándar y batería ampliada de pruebas alérgicas de contacto por el Grupo Español de Investigación en Dermatitis de Contacto y Alergia Cutánea (GEIDAC).

After the meeting held by the Spanish Contact Dermatitis and Skin Allergy Research Group (GEIDAC) back in October 2021, changes were suggested to the Spanish standard series patch testing. Hydroxyethyl methacrylate (2% pet.), textile dye mixt (6.6% pet.), linalool hydroperoxide (1% pet.), and limonene hydroperoxide (0.3% pet.) were, then, added to the series that agreed upon in 2016.

Recommendations on the Use of Moisturizing Products Prepared by Spanish Dermatologists Using the Delphi Method. / Recomendaciones sobre el uso de productos hidratantes elaboradas por dermatólogos españoles mediante el método Delphi.

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Moisturizing products are widely used in conditions affecting skin hydration. However, the lack of scientific evidence leads to discrepancies and great variability in the recommendations used by different health professionals. The aim of this consensus document is to generate recommendations based on the evidence and experience of dermatologists to unify and facilitate the use of moisturizing products in the routine clinical practice. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A 49-statement questionnaire on moisturizing products was prepared and, then, arranged in 5 blocks: 1) concept; 2) characteristics, 3) frequency and quantity, 4) product use and areas of application, and 5) special populations. Twenty-two expert dermatologists in the management of patients with eczema answered to the survey using a 2-round Delphi methodology (adding an item on the 2nd round). RESULTS: Consensus was reached on 27 statements (54%), most (n=23) via agreement. The highest level of agreement was reached in the blocks on quantity, product use and areas of application (77.8%), followed by the blocks on characteristics (73%) and frequency (62.5%). Regarding the blocks on concept and special populations, the level of consensus on the items proposed was 37.5% and 10%, respectively. Consensus on the use of emollients for xeroderma (71%) was higher vs atopic dermatitis (64%) and inflamed skin (33.3%). CONCLUSIONS: Consensus recommendations can help all prescribers and improve the available evidence regarding their use.

Documento de consenso de la Sociedad Española de Neurología sobre el tratamiento de la esclerosis múltiple y manejo holístico del paciente 2023 / Consensus statement of the Spanish Society of Neurology on the treatment of multiple sclerosis and holistic patient management in 2023

El último documento de consenso del Grupo de Estudio de Enfermedades Desmielinizantes de la Sociedad Española de Neurología sobre el tratamiento de la esclerosis múltiple (EM) data del año 2016. Aunque muchas consideraciones continúan todavía vigentes, desde entonces se han producido cambios significativos en el manejo y tratamiento de esta enfermedad, motivados no solo por la aprobación de nuevos fármacos con diferentes mecanismos de acción, sino también por la evolución de conceptos otrora consolidados. Esto ha permitido abordar situaciones especiales como el embarazo y la vacunación desde otra perspectiva, e incluir nuevas variables en la toma de decisiones en práctica clínica, como plantear tratamiento modificador de la enfermedad (TME) de alta eficacia en fases tempranas, considerar la perspectiva del paciente y utilizar nuevas tecnologías como monitorización remota. Estos cambios han motivado la presente actualización del consenso mediante metodología Delphi, con el objetivo de reflejar el nuevo paradigma de manejo del paciente con EM basándose en la evidencia científica y la experiencia clínica de los participantes. Entre las principales conclusiones destacan como recomendaciones: iniciar TME inmunomodulador en el síndrome radiológico aislado con actividad radiológica persistente, evaluar la perspectiva del paciente y abandonar la terminología «líneas de tratamiento» en la clasificación de los TME (consenso mayor del 90%). Tras el diagnóstico de EM la elección del primer TME debería considerar la presencia/ausencia de factores de mal pronóstico (epidemiológicos, clínicos, radiológicos y biomarcadores) para la aparición de nuevos brotes o progresión de discapacidad, pudiendo plantear desde el inicio TME de alta eficacia. (AU)

The last consensus statement of the Spanish Society of Neurology's Demyelinating Diseases Study Group on the treatment of multiple sclerosis (MS) was issued in 2016. Although many of the positions taken remain valid, there have been significant changes in the management and treatment of MS, both due to the approval of new drugs with different action mechanisms and due to the evolution of previously fixed concepts. This has enabled new approaches to specific situations such as pregnancy and vaccination, and the inclusion of new variables in clinical decision-making, such as the early use of high-efficacy disease-modifying therapies (DMT), consideration of the patient's perspective, and the use of such novel technologies as remote monitoring. In the light of these changes, this updated consensus statement, developed according to the Delphi method, seeks to reflect the new paradigm in the management of patients with MS, based on the available scientific evidence and the clinical expertise of the participants. The most significant recommendations are that immunomodulatory DMT be started in patients with radiologically isolated syndrome with persistent radiological activity, that patient perspectives be considered, and that the term “lines of therapy” no longer be used in the classification of DMTs (> 90% consensus). Following diagnosis of MS, the first DMT should be selected according to the presence/absence of factors of poor prognosis (whether epidemiological, clinical, radiological, or biomarkers) for the occurrence of new relapses or progression of disability; high-efficacy DMTs may be considered from disease onset.
