Encuesta de opinión sobre propuestas de mejora del código ictus en el Área V de la Región de Murcia, 2014 / Opinion survey on proposals for improving code stroke in Murcia Health District V, 2014

Introducción. El ictus es una patología neurológica tiempo dependiente. El Área V de salud de la Región de Murcia posee unas determinadas características demográficas y geográficas que hacen imprescindible la creación de propuestas de mejora concretas para garantizar un correcto funcionamiento del código ictus. Los objetivos de este estudio fueron valorar la opinión de los profesionales del Área respecto a la activación y la práctica del mismo y compartir esas propuestas de mejora con el grupo multidisciplinar de mejora del código ictus regional. Sujetos y método. Se realizó un estudio descriptivo transversal, utilizando la técnica Delphi para elaborar un cuestionario dirigido al personal médico y de enfermería de todos los niveles asistenciales. El cuestionario era anónimo y de cumplimentación telemática; se envió a 154 profesionales. El análisis se realizó con el método DAFO (debilidades, amenazas, fortalezas y oportunidades de mejora). Resultados. Se recogieron 51 cuestionarios. Las propuestas de mejora principales fueron: la formación, la comunicación con el neurólogo, la distancia, las pruebas de imagen, la motivación a los profesionales y la concienciación a la población general. Conclusiones. En la bibliografía actual, se recogen la mayoría de las intervenciones que propusieron los participantes. Las propuestas de mejora se transmitieron al grupo de Mejora del Código Ictus de la Región de Murcia (AU)

Introduction. Stroke is a time-dependent neurological disease. Health District V in the Murcia Health System has certain demographic and geographical characteristics that make it necessary to create specific improvement strategies to ensure proper functioning of code stroke (CS). The study objectives were to assess local professionals’ opinions about code stroke activation and procedure, and to share these suggestions with the regional multidisciplinary group for code stroke. Subjects and method. This cross-sectional and descriptive study used the Delphi technique to develop a questionnaire for doctors and nurses working at all care levels in Area V. An anonymous electronic survey was sent to 154 professionals. The analysis was performed using the SWOT method (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats). Results. Researchers collected 51 questionnaires. The main proposals were providing training, promoting communication with the neurologist, overcoming physical distances, using diagnostic imaging tests, motivating professionals, and raising awareness in the general population. Conclusions. Most of the interventions proposed by the participants have been listed in published literature. These improvement proposals were forwarded to the Regional Code Stroke Improvement Group (AU)

[Study of sociodemographic and psychopathological risk factors in suicide attempts. 2008-2010]. / Análisis de los intentos de autolisis en un área de salud. 2008-2010.

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study is to determine the sociodemographic and psychopathological features and risk factors associated with suicide attempts. DESIGN: A descriptive cross-sectional study based on medical records. Emergency Primary Care Centres (Jumilla, Yecla) and Hospital Emergency Departments (Yecla, Murcia, Spain). RESULTS: The suicide attempt rate increases in younger people (average of 36.4 years old). Suicide attempts are higher among women (67%). In terms of psychopathological data, suicide attempts were characterised by a higher prevalence of depression and anxiety disorder (30%), and substance abuse (13%). The percentage of patients who had made a previous suicide attempt was 37%. Self-poisoning was the most recurrent method of suicide attempt, present in at least 80% of the cases. Gender was a significant factor in the cause of suicide attempt (P=.042) and psychopathology (P=.011). The geographic origin of the patient is significantly associated with the suicide method used (P=.000). CONCLUSIONS: Suicide treatment protocols and suicide prevention programs must be developed, as well as recording the risk factors in the patient history.

Análisis de los intentos de autolisis en un área de salud. 2008-2010 / Study of sociodemographic and psychopathological risk factors in suicide attempts. 2008-2010

Objetivo. Se trata de estudiar el porcentaje de pacientes con intentos de autolisis valorados en un área de salud sin psiquiatra de guardia y analizar las características de los mismos. Material y métodos. Estudio descriptivo, transversal. Se han estudiado el total de las consultas atendidas por intento de autolisis durante los años 2008, 2009 y 2010, en el área V-Región de Murcia. Los criterios de exclusión han sido los intentos de autolisis con consecuencia de fallecimiento. Resultados. La edad media de los pacientes que consultaron por intento de autolisis fue 36,4 años. El 67% de los pacientes fueron mujeres. Los antecedentes psiquiátricos más prevalentes fueron, síndrome ansioso-depresivo (30%), abuso de drogas (13%) y patología dual (10%). El 37% de los pacientes que realizó un intento de autolisis tenía antecedentes de intentos previos. El 80% de los intentos de autolisis fue por consumo de fármacos o la combinación de fármacos, alcohol y drogas ilegales. El sexo se relaciona significativamente con el desencadenante del intento de autolisis (p 0,042) y con el diagnóstico psiquiátrico previo (p 0,011). La procedencia geográfica se relaciona significativamente con el método de autolisis (p 0,000). Conclusiones. A la hora de elaborar la historia clínica debe mejorarse la cumplimentación de los factores de riesgo de suicidio. Deben establecerse protocolos asistenciales multidisciplinares no solo para el tratamiento médico sino para la valoración urgente por el psiquiatra en nuestro centro de referencia (AU)

[Quality recording of information in the health centre medical records on the use of analgesic and anti-inflammatory drugs]. / Calidad del registro de la información acerca del consumo de antiinflamatorios y analgésicos en la Historia clínica del Centro de Salud.

INTRODUCTION: To examine medical records within a health centre to determine whether there are data in the information process on the secondary effects and interactions of analgesic and anti-inflammatory drugs, and to determine the patient profile as regards whether or not this information is recorded in their medical records. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Descriptive, cross-sectional study based on electronic medical records in the Mariano Yago Primary Care Centre in Yecla (Murcia), Spain. A systematic random sample of 232 electronic medical records was reviewed. All the 232 patients, of legal age, gave their consent to review of their electronic medical records for the purposes of the study. RESULTS: The percentage of doctors who recorded the fact that they had provided information regarding secondary effects and non-compatibilities of the prescription of analgesic and antiinflammatory drugs was 21.6%. The factors involved in the non- recording of this information in the medical record were the type of prescription, the type of analgesic and anti-inflammatory drug prescribed, glomerular filtration, and adequate gastrointestinal protection. CONCLUSIONS: The degree of compliance to patients rights to information about treatment with analgesic and anti-inflammatory drugs is low.
