RESUMO
Introducción: Goh et al. propusieron en 2008 un algoritmo clasificatorio de SSc-EPID limitada o extensa. La prevalencia de ambos en el momento del diagnóstico de SSc-EPID no se conoce con exactitud. Métodos: La revisión se realizó mediante MEDLINE y SCOPUS desde 2008 hasta 2023 y utilizando los términos: «sistémica», «esclerodermia» o «enfermedad pulmonar intersticial» [MesH]. Se utilizó la escala de Newcastle-Ottawa para la evaluación de la calificación de los estudios observacionales y la escala de Jadad para los ensayos clínicos. Se realizó el método inverso ponderado por la varianza. Resultados: Se incluyeron inicialmente 27 estudios en la revisión sistemática y metaanálisis (SRMA). De ellos, 17 estudios no tenían datos coincidentes. Comunicaron datos de 2.149 pacientes, 1.369 (81,2%) eran mujeres. La edad media era de 52,4 (DE 6,6) años. El 45,2% de los pacientes presentaban el subtipo difuso y el 54,8% el subtipo limitado o esclerodermia sinusal. El 38,7% de los pacientes presentaban anticuerpos antitopoisomerasa positivos y el 14,2% anticuerpos anticentrómero positivos. El porcentaje medio de capacidad vital forzada al inicio del estudio fue del 80,5% (DE 6,9) y de capacidad de difusión pulmonar para el monóxido de carbono fue del 59,1% (DE 9,6). Doce estudios presentaron datos de extensión de SSc-EPID ajustados por PFR y se incluyeron en el metaanálisis. Los 10 estudios observacionales de cohortes se analizaron por separado. El porcentaje global de afectación limitada se estimó en un 63,5% (IC del 95%: 55,3-73; p<0,001) utilizando el modelo de efectos aleatorios. La heterogeneidad entre estudios (I2) fue del 9,8% (IC del 95%: 0-68,2%). La afectación pulmonar extensa se estimó en 34,3% (IC del 95%: 26-45,4; p<0,001). La heterogeneidad entre estudios (I2) fue del 0% (IC del 95%: 0-61,6%) con el modelo de efectos aleatorios.(AU)
Introduction: Goh et al. proposed in 2008 a classificatory algorithm of limited or extensive SSc-ILD. The prevalence of both at the time of diagnosis of SSc-ILD is not known with exactitude. Methods: The review was undertaken by means of MEDLINE and SCOPUS from 2008 to 2023 and using the terms: systemic, scleroderma or interstitial lung disease [MesH]. The Newcastle-Ottawa Scale was used for the qualifying assessment for observational studies and the Jadad scale for clinical trials. The inverse variance-weighted method was performed. Results: Twenty-seven studies were initially included in the systematic review and meta-analysis (SRMA). Of these, 17 studies had no overlapping data. They reported data from 2,149 patients, 1,369 (81.2%) were female. The mean age was 52.4 (SD 6.6) years. 45.2% of the patients had the diffuse subtype and 54.8% had the limited or sine scleroderma subtype. A total of 38.7% of the patients showed positive antitopoisomerase antibodies and 14.2% positive anticentromere antibodies. The mean percentage of forced vital capacity at baseline was 80.5% (SD 6.9) and of diffusing capacity of the lungs for carbon monoxide was 59.1% (SD 9.6). Twelve studies presented SSc-ILD extension data adjusted for PFTs and were included in the meta-analysis. The 10 observational cohort studies were analyzed separately. The overall percentage of limited extension was estimated at 63.5% (95%CI 55.373; p<0.001) using the random-effects model. Heterogeneity between studies (I2) was 9.8% (95%CI 068.2%) with the random-effects model. Extensive pulmonary involvement was estimated at 34.3% (95%CI 2645.4; p<0.001). Heterogeneity between studies (I2) was 0% (95%CI 061.6%) with the random-effects model. Conclusion: The overall percentage of limited SSc-ILD at the time of diagnosis of SSc-ILD was estimated at 63.5% and extensive at 34.3%.(AU)

Introducción La evidencia reciente sugiere que la fragilidad puede ser un importante predictor de resultados adversos en personas mayores hospitalizadas por COVID-19. El objetivo de este estudio es determinar el valor pronóstico de la fragilidad en la supervivencia intrahospitalaria de estos pacientes. Métodos Estudio observacional, multicéntrico y de ámbito nacional de pacientes ≥70 años hospitalizados a consecuencia de la COVID-19 en España desde el 1 de marzo hasta el 31 de diciembre de 2020. Los datos de los pacientes se obtuvieron del Registro SEMI-COVID-19 de la Sociedad Española de Medicina Interna. Se utilizó la escala de fragilidad Clínica (CFS, por sus siglas en inglés) para evaluar la fragilidad. El resultado primario fue la supervivencia hospitalaria. Se realizó un modelo de riesgos proporcionales de Cox para evaluar los predictores de supervivencia. Resultados Se incluyeron 1.878 participantes (52% varones y 48% mujeres). Mil trescientos cincuenta y un supervivientes (71,9%) y 527 no supervivientes (28,1%). El grupo de no supervivientes presentaba en comparación con los supervivientes una media de edad superior (83,5 frente a 81 años), más comorbilidades (6,3 frente a 5,3 puntos en el índice de Charlson), mayor grado de dependencia (26,8 frente al 12,4% de pacientes con dependencia severa) y de fragilidad (34,5 frente al 14,7% de pacientes con fragilidad severa), sin embargo, no hubo diferencias en cuanto al sexo. Nuestros resultados muestran que un grado de fragilidad moderado-grave es el principal factor asociado de forma independiente con una menor supervivencia (HR: 2,344; 1,437-3,823; p<0,001 para SFC 5-6 y HR: 3,694; 2,155-6,330; p<0,001 para SFC 7-9. Conclusiones La fragilidad es el principal predictor de resultados adversos en pacientes mayores con COVID-19. El uso de herramientas como la CFS es fundamental para la detección precoz de fragilidad en esta población (AU)
Background Emerging evidence suggests that frailty may be a significant predictor of poor outcomes in older individuals hospitalized due to COVID-19. This study aims to determine the prognostic value of frailty on intrahospital patient survival. Methods This observational, multicenter, nationwide study included patients aged 70 years and older who were hospitalized due to COVID-19 in Spain between March 1 and December 31, 2020. Patient data were obtained from the SEMI-COVID-19 Registry of the Spanish Society of Internal Medicine. Frailty was assessed using the Clinical Frailty Scale. The primary outcome was hospital survival. Cox proportional hazards models were used to assess predictors of survival. Results A total of 1878 participants (52% men and 48% women) were included, with 1351 (71.9%) survivors and 527 (28.1%) non-survivors. The non-survivor group had higher mean age (83.5 vs. 81 years), comorbidities (6.3 vs. 5.3 points on the Charlson index), degree of dependency (26.8% vs. 12.4% severely dependent patients), and frailty (34.5% vs. 14.7% severely frail patients) compared to survivors. However, there were no differences in terms of sex. Our results demonstrate that a moderatesevere degree of frailty is the primary factor independently associated with shorter survival (HR 2.344; 1.437-3.823; p < 0.001 for CFS 5-6 and 3.694; 2.1556.330; p < 0.001 for CFS 7-9). Conclusion Frailty is the main predictor of adverse outcomes in older patients with COVID-19. The utilization of tools such as the Clinical Frailty Scale is crucial for early detection in this population (AU)

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the effectiveness and safety of intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) given in routine care to patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc). METHODS: A retrospective multicenter observational study was conducted in SSc patients treated with IVIG. We collected data on epidemiological parameters and clinical outcomes. Firstly, we assessed changes in organ manifestations during IVIG treatment. Secondly, we analyzed the frequency of adverse effects. The following parameters were collected from baseline to the last follow-up: the patient's weight, modified Rodnan Skin Score (mRSS), modified manual muscle strength scale (MRC), laboratory test(creatine kinase(CK), hemoglobin and protein levels), The University of California Los Angeles Scleroderma Clinical Trials Consortium gastrointestinal tract 2.0 (UCLA GIT 2.0) questionnaire, pulmonary function tests, and echocardiography. RESULTS: Data were collected on 78 patients (82% females; 59% with diffuse SSc). Inflammatory idiopathic myopathy was the most frequent concomitant overlap disease (41%). The time since Raynaud's phenomenon and SSc onset were 8.8 ± 18 and 6.2 ± 6.7 years respectively. The most frequent IVIG indication was myositis (38/78), followed by gastrointestinal (27/78) and cutaneous (17/78) involvement. The median number of cycles given were 5. 54, 53 and 9 patients have been treated previously with glucocorticoids, synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs and biologic therapies respectively. After IVIG use we found significant improvements in muscular involvement (MRC ≥ 3/5 92% IVIG, p = 0.001 and CK levels from 1149 ± 2026 UI to 217 ± 224 UI, p = 0.02), mRSS (15 ± 12.4 to 13 ± 12.5, p = 0.015) and improvement in total score of UCLA GIT 2.0 (p = 0.05). None Anti-RNA polymerase III patients showed an adequate response in gastrointestinal involvement (0/7) in comparison with other antibodies (0 vs. 25, p = 0,039). Cardiorespiratory involvement remained stable. A total of 12 adverse events were reported with only one withdrawn due to serious adverse effect. CONCLUSIONS: this study suggest that IVIG may improve myositis, gastrointestinal and skin involvement in SSc patients treated in routine care and seems to have a good safety profile.

Objective: This work aimed to compare the characteristics, progress, and prognosis of patients with COPD hospitalized due to COVID-19 in Spain in the first wave with those of the second wave. Material and methods: This is an observational study of patients hospitalized in Spain with a diagnosis of COPD included in the SEMI-COVID-19 registry. The medical history, symptoms, analytical and radiological results, treatment, and progress of patients with COPD hospitalized in the first wave (from March to June 2020) versus those hospitalized in the second wave (from July to December 2020) were compared. Factors associated with poor prognosis, defined as all-cause mortality and a composite endpoint that included mortality, high-flow oxygen therapy, mechanical ventilation, and ICU admission, were analyzed. Results: Of the 21,642 patients in the SEMI-COVID-19 Registry, 6.9% were diagnosed with COPD: 1,128 (6.8%) in WAVE1 and 374 (7.7%) in WAVE2 (p = 0.04). WAVE2 patients presented less dry cough, fever and dyspnea, hypoxemia (43% vs 36%, p < 0.05), and radiological condensation (46% vs 31%, p < 0.05) than WAVE1 patients. Mortality was lower in WAVE2 (35% vs 28.6%, p = 0.01). In the total sample, mortality and the composite outcome of poor prognosis were lower among patients who received inhalation therapy. Conclusions: Patients with COPD admitted to the hospital due to COVID-19 in the second wave had less respiratory failure and less radiological involvement as well as a better prognosis. These patients should receive bronchodilator treatment if there is no contraindication for it.
RESUMO
Objetivo Comparar las características, evolución y pronóstico de los pacientes con enfermedad pulmonar obstructiva crónica (EPOC) hospitalizados por COVID-19 en España en la primera ola con los de la segunda ola. Material y métodos Estudio observacional de los pacientes hospitalizados en territorio español con diagnóstico de EPOC incluidos en el registro SEMI-COVID-19. Se compararon los antecedentes, la clínica, los resultados analíticos y radiológicos, el tratamiento y la evolución de los pacientes con EPOC hospitalizados en la primera ola (desde marzo hasta junio del 2020 [OLA1]) frente a los que fueron ingresados en la segunda ola (desde julio hasta diciembre del 2020 [OLA2]). Se analizaron los factores de mal pronóstico, definidos como mortalidad por todas las causas y un evento combinado que incluía mortalidad, oxigenoterapia con alto flujo, ventilación mecánica e ingreso en la unidad de cuidados intensivos (UCI). Resultado De 21.642 pacientes del registro SEMI-COVID-19, están diagnosticados de EPOC 6,9%, 1.128 (6,8%) en la OLA1 y 374 (7,7%) en la OLA2 (p = 0,04). Los pacientes de la OLA2 presentan menos tos seca, fiebre y disnea, hipoxemia (43 vs. 36%, p < 0,05) y condensación radiológica (46 vs. 31%, p < 0,05) que los de la OLA1. La mortalidad es menor en la OLA2 (35 vs. 28,6%, p = 0,01). En el global de pacientes la mortalidad y la variable combinada de mal pronóstico fue menor entre aquellos que recibieron tratamiento inhalador. Conclusiones Los pacientes con EPOC con ingreso hospitalario por COVID-19 en la segunda ola presentan menos insuficiencia respiratoria y menor afectación radiológica, con mejor pronóstico. Estos deben recibir tratamiento broncodilatador si no hay contraindicación para el mismo (AU)

Introducción: Existen pocos estudios sobre pacientes con insuficiencia cardíaca (IC) ingresados por COVID-19. Nuestro objetivo fue describir las características clínicas de los pacientes con IC ingresados por COVID-19 e identificar los factores de riesgo al ingreso de mortalidad intrahospitalaria. Material y métodos: Estudio retrospectivo y multicéntrico de pacientes con IC ingresados por COVID-19 en 150 hospitales españoles (Registro SEMI-COVID-19). Se realizó un análisis de regresión logística para identificar los factores de riesgo al ingreso asociados a la mortalidad. Resultados: Se analizaron 1.718 pacientes (56,5% varones; edad mediana 81,4 años). La tasa de mortalidad global fue del 47,6% (n=819). Los factores de riesgo independientes al ingreso para mortalidad fueron: la edad (odds ratio ajustado [ORA]: 1,03; intervalo de confianza 95% [IC 95%]: 1,02-1,05; p<0,001), la dependencia severa (ORA: 1,62; IC 95%: 1,19-2,20; p=0,002), la taquicardia (ORA: 1,01; IC 95%: 1,00-1,01; p=0,004), la proteína C reactiva (ORA: 1,004; IC 95%:1,002-1,004; p<0,001), la LDH (ORA: 1,001; IC 95%: 1,001-1,002; p<0,001) y la creatinina sérica (ORA: 1,35; IC 95%: 1,18-1,54; p<0,001). Conclusiones: Los pacientes con IC hospitalizados por COVID-19 tienen una alta mortalidad intrahospitalaria. Existen factores clínico-analíticos simples que pueden ayudar a identificar a los pacientes con peor pronóstico (AU)
Background: There are few studies on patients with heart failure (HF) hospitalized for COVID-19. Our aim is to describe the clinical characteristics of patients with HF hospitalized for COVID-19 and identify risk factors for in-hospital mortality upon admission. Methods: We conducted a retrospective, multicenter study in patients with HF hospitalized for COVID-19 in 150 Spanish hospitals (SEMI-COVID-19 Registry). A multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to identify admission risk factors associated with in-hospital mortality. Results: A total of 1,718 patients were analyzed (56.5% men; median age 81.4 years). The overall case fatality rate was 47.6% (n=819). The independent risk factors at admission for in-hospital mortality were: age (adjusted odds ratio [AOR]: 1.03; 95% confidence interval [95%CI]: 1.02-1.05; p<.001); severe dependence (AOR: 1.62; 95%CI: 1.19-2.20; p=.002); tachycardia (AOR: 1.01; 95%CI: 1.00-1.01; p=.004); and high C-reactive protein (AOR: 1.004; 95%CI:1.002-1.004; p<.001), LDH (AOR: 1.001; 95%CI: 1.001-1.002; p<.001), and serum creatinine levels (AOR: 1.35; 95%CI: 1.18-1.54; p<.001). Conclusions: Patients with HF hospitalized for COVID-19 have a high in-hospital mortality rate. Some simple clinical and laboratory tests can help to identify patients with a worse prognosis (AU)

RESUMO
ANTECEDENTES: España ha sido uno de los países más afectados por la pandemia de COVID-19. OBJETIVO: Crear un registro de pacientes hospitalizados en España por COVID-19 para mejorar nuestro conocimiento sobre los aspectos clínicos, diagnósticos, terapéuticos y pronósticos de esta enfermedad. MÉTODOS: Estudio de cohorte retrospectiva, multicéntrico, que incluye pacientes consecutivos hospitalizados con COVID-19 confirmada en toda España. Se obtuvieron los datos epidemiológicos y clínicos, las pruebas complementarias al ingreso y a los 7 días de la admisión, los tratamientos administrados y la evolución a los 30 días de hospitalización de las historias clínicas electrónicas. RESULTADOS: Hasta el 30 de junio de 2020 se incluyeron 15.111 pacientes de 150 hospitales. Su mediana de edad fue 69,4 años (rango: 18-102 años) y el 57,2% eran hombres. Las prevalencias de hipertensión, dislipemia y diabetes mellitus fueron 50,9%, 39,7% y 19,4%, respectivamente. Los síntomas más frecuentes fueron fiebre (84,2%) y tos (73,5%). Fueron frecuentes los valores elevados de ferritina (73,5%), lactato deshidrogenasa (73,9%) y dímero D (63,8%), así como la linfopenia (52,8%). Los fármacos antivirales más utilizados fueron la hidroxicloroquina (85,6%) y el lopinavir/ritonavir (61,4%). El 33,1% desarrolló distrés respiratorio. La tasa de mortalidad global fue del 21,0%, con un marcado incremento con la edad (50-59 años: 4,7%; 60-69 años: 10,5%; 70-79 años: 26,9%; ≥80 años: 46%). CONCLUSIONES: El Registro SEMI-COVID-19 proporciona información sobre las características clínicas de los pacientes con COVID-19 hospitalizados en España. Los pacientes con COVID-19 hospitalizados en España son en su mayoría casos graves, ya que uno de cada 3 pacientes desarrolló distrés respiratorio y uno de cada 5 pacientes falleció. Nuestros datos confirman una estrecha relación entre la edad avanzada y la mortalidad
BACKGROUND: Spain has been one of the countries most affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. OBJECTIVE: To create a registry of patients with COVID-19 hospitalized in Spain, in order to improve our knowledge of the clinical, diagnostic, therapeutic, and prognostic aspects of this disease. METHODS: A multicentre retrospective cohort study, including consecutive patients hospitalized with confirmed COVID-19 throughout Spain. Epidemiological and clinical data, additional tests at admission and at seven days, treatments administered, and progress at 30 days of hospitalization were collected from electronic medical records. RESULTS: Up to June 30th 2020, 15,111 patients from 150 hospitals were included. Their median age was 69.4 years (range: 18-102 years) and 57.2% were male. Prevalences of hypertension, dyslipidemia, and diabetes mellitus were 50.9%, 39.7%, and 19.4%, respectively. The most frequent symptoms were fever (84.2%) and cough (73.5%). High values of ferritin (73.5%), lactate dehydrogenase (73.9%), and D-dimer (63.8%), as well as lymphopenia (52.8%), were frequent. The most used antiviral drugs were hydroxychloroquine (85.6%) and lopinavir/ritonavir (61.4%); 33.1% developed respiratory distress. Overall mortality rate was 21.0%, with a marked increase with age (50-59 years: 4.7%, 60-69 years: 10.5%, 70-79 years: 26.9%, ≥80 years: 46.0%). CONCLUSIONS: The SEMI-COVID-19 Network provides data on the clinical characteristics of patients with COVID-19 hospitalized in Spain. Patients with COVID-19 hospitalized in Spain are mostly severe cases, as one in three patients developed respiratory distress and one in five patients died. These findings confirm a close relationship between advanced age and mortality

BACKGROUND: Spain has been one of the countries most affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. OBJECTIVE: To create a registry of patients with COVID-19 hospitalized in Spain, in order to improve our knowledge of the clinical, diagnostic, therapeutic, and prognostic aspects of this disease. METHODS: A multicentre retrospective cohort study, including consecutive patients hospitalized with confirmed COVID-19 throughout Spain. Epidemiological and clinical data, additional tests at admission and at seven days, treatments administered, and progress at 30 days of hospitalization were collected from electronic medical records. RESULTS: Up to June 30th 2020, 15,111 patients from 150 hospitals were included. Their median age was 69.4 years (range: 18-102 years) and 57.2% were male. Prevalences of hypertension, dyslipidemia, and diabetes mellitus were 50.9%, 39.7%, and 19.4%, respectively. The most frequent symptoms were fever (84.2%) and cough (73.5%). High values of ferritin (73.5%), lactate dehydrogenase (73.9%), and D-dimer (63.8%), as well as lymphopenia (52.8%), were frequent. The most used antiviral drugs were hydroxychloroquine (85.6%) and lopinavir/ritonavir (61.4%); 33.1% developed respiratory distress. Overall mortality rate was 21.0%, with a marked increase with age (50-59 years: 4.7%, 60-69 years: 10.5%, 70-79 years: 26.9%, ≥80 years: 46.0%).

RESUMO
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the clinical characteristics of patients with interstitial lung disease (ILD) in the setting of a large cohort of systemic sclerosis (SSc) patients, and to analyse the differences according to the SSc subtype (following the modification of classification criteria of the American College of Rheumatology for SSc proposed by LeRoy and Medsger), factors are associated with moderate-to-severe impairment of lung function, as well as mortality and causes of death. METHODS: A descriptive study was performed, using the available data from the Spanish Scleroderma Study Group. RESULTS: Twenty-one referral centers participated in the registry. By April 2014, 1374 patients with SSc had been enrolled, and 595 of whom (43%) had ILD: 316 (53%) with limited cutaneous SSc (lcSSc), 240 (40%) with diffuse cutaneous SSc (dcSSc), and 39 (7%) with SSc sine scleroderma (ssSSc). ILD in the lcSSc and the ssSSc subsets tended to develop later, and showed a less impaired forced vital capacity (FVC) and a ground glass pattern on high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) less frequently, compared with the dcSSc subset. Factors related to an FVC < 70% of predicted in the multivariate analysis were: dcSSc, positivity to anti-topoisomerase I antibodies, a ground glass pattern on HCRT, an active nailfold capillaroscopy pattern, lower DLco, older age at symptoms onset, and longer time between symptoms onset and ILD diagnosis. Finally, SSc-associated mortality and ILD-related mortality were highest in dcSSc patients, whereas that related to pulmonary arterial hypertension was highest in those with lcSSc-associated ILD. CONCLUSIONS: Our study indicates that ILD constitutes a remarkable complication of SSc with significant morbidity and mortality, which should be borne in mind in all three subgroups (lcSSc, dcSSc, and ssSSc).

The objective of the study is to determine the importance of the mode of onset as prognostic factor in systemic sclerosis (SSc). Data were collected from the Spanish Scleroderma Registry (RESCLE), a nationwide retrospective multicenter database created in 2006. As first symptom, we included Raynaud's phenomenon (RP), cutaneous sclerosis, arthralgia/arthritis, puffy hands, interstitial lung disease (ILD), pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), and digestive hypomotility. A total of 1625 patients were recruited. One thousand three hundred forty-two patients (83%) presented with RP as first symptom and 283 patients (17%) did not. Survival from first symptom in those patients with RP mode of onset was higher at any time than those with onset as non-Raynaud's phenomenon: 97 vs. 90% at 5 years, 93 vs. 82% at 10 years, 83 vs. 62% at 20 years, and 71 vs. 50% at 30 years (p < 0.001). In multivariate analysis, factors related to mortality were older age at onset, male gender, dcSSc subset, ILD, PAH, scleroderma renal crisis (SRC), heart involvement, and the mode of onset with non-Raynaud's phenomenon, especially in the form of puffy hands or pulmonary involvement. The mode of onset should be considered an independent prognostic factor in systemic sclerosis and, in particular, patients who initially present with non-Raynaud's phenomenon may be considered of poor prognosis.

Fundamento y objetivo. Presentamos el estudiodescriptivo de una unidad de diagnóstico rápido(UDR) en régimen ambulatorio como alternativa alingreso hospitalario tradicional.Material y métodos. La UDR ha estado constituidadurante el tiempo que abarca este estudio por unmédico internista, un radiólogo y una enfermera.Para llevar a cabo el estudio estadístico descriptivo,revisamos la historia clínica de 1.132 pacientesvisitados en el primer año y medio.Resultados. Hemos atendido a 1.132 pacientes, el71% procedentes de Urgencias y el 26%, de AtenciónPrimaria. El estudio se llevó a cabo en unos 9 días demediana. Los principales motivos de consulta fueronanemia, síndrome constitucional y adenopatíasperiféricas. El 38% de los pacientes fue dado de alta,el resto requirió seguir el estudio o bien en consultasexternas (52%) o bien bajo ingreso hospitalario (10%).Hasta 199 pacientes (18%) fueron diagnosticados decáncer, los más frecuentes colon, linfoma y pulmón.Estimamos que se han podido evitar 4,5 camas/día enel Servicio de Medicina Interna.Conclusiones. La UDR ha demostrado ser ennuestro centro una alternativa eficiente de lahospitalización en pacientes en estudio de patologíapotencialmente grave, pero en los cuales el estadogeneral permite una atención ambulatoria
