Factores asociados al control óptimo simultáneo de la diabetes, hipertensión arterial e hipercolesterolemia en la población diabética. Estudio BPC diabetes / Factors associated with the optimum simultaneous control of diabetes, arterial hypertension and hypercholesterolemia in the diabetic population. BPC Diabetes study

Objetivos: Conocer el grado de control óptimo simultáneo de la diabetes (DM), hipertensión arterial (HTA) e hipercolesterolemia y determinar los factores asociados. Material y métodos: Estudio descriptivo transversal en pacientes diabéticos de 18 o más de edad, seleccionados consecutivamente en consultas de medicina de familia (MF). Los datos de los pacientes se obtuvieron mediante acceso a la historia informatizada, registrándose variables clínicas y analíticas de interés. Se consideró buen control metabólico una HbA1c < 7%, buen control de la presión arterial (PA) valores < 140/80 mmHg y buen control de colesterol LDL (c-LDL) valores < 100 mg/dL. Se realizó análisis bivariante y se calcularon odds ratio (OD) en un modelo de regresión logística. El estudio fue aprobado por el CEIm del Hospital Clínico San Carlos (Madrid). Resultados: Se incluyó a 1.420 pacientes (55,8% varones), con una edad media (DE) de 70,6 (10,8) años. El 75,9% eran hipertensos y el 69,1% dislipémicos. Los valores de HbA1c fueron de 6,9 (1,2) %, PA sistólica 135,0 (16,8) mmHg, PA diastólica 75,9 (10,6) mmHg y LDL-colesterol 93,7 (32,8) mg/dL. El buen control metabólico de la DM se alcanzó en el 63% (intervalo de confianza [IC] 95%: 60,4-65,5), el buen control de la HTA en el 42,6% (IC 95%: 40,0-45,2) y el buen control de colesterol LDL en el 61,1% (IC 95%: 58,4-63,7) de los pacientes. El buen control de los tres factores de riesgo cardiovascular (FRCV) simultáneamente se alcanzó en el 16,1% (IC 95%: 14,2-18,1). Se observó una asociación positiva e independiente (p < 0,05) entre el buen control simultáneo de los FRCV con la edad (OR: 1.017) y los antecedentes personales de enfermedad cardiovascular (OR: 1.596). Conclusiones: Los resultados de nuestro estudio indican que una proporción pequeña, menos de dos de cada 10 pacientes cumplen los objetivos de buen control recomendados por las guías de práctica clínica (AU)

Objectives: To know the degree of simultaneous optimal control of diabetes (DM), high blood pressure (BP) and hypercholesterolemia and determine the associated factors. Material and method: Cross-sectional descriptive study in diabetic patients 18 years aged or older selected consecutively in primary care centers (PC). Patient data were obtained through access to electronical clinical history. Clinical and analytical variables of interest were registered. Good metabolic control was considered as HbA1c < 7%, good blood pressure control (PA) as values < 140/80 mmHg and good LDL cholesterol control (c-LDL) as values < 100 mg/dL. Bivariate analysis was performed and odds ratio were calculated in a logistic regression model. The study was approved by the San Carlos Clinical Hospital's Clinical Research Ethics Committee (CREC), in Madrid. Results: 1420 patients (55.8% male), with an average (SD) age of 70.6 (10.8) years were included. 75.9% were hypertensive patients, and 69.1% dyslipemic. HbA1c values were 6.9 (1.2) %, sistolic BP 135.0 (16.8) mmHg, diastolic BP 75.9 (10.6) mmHg and LDL-cholesterol 93.7 (32.8) mg/dL. Good metabolic control of DM was achieved at 63.0% (95% CI: 60.4–65.5), good control of HTA at 42.6% (95% CI: 40.0–45.2) and good LDL cholesterol control in 61.1% (95% IC: 58.4–63.7) of patients. Good simultaneous control of the three cardiovascular risk factors (CVRF) was reached at 16.1% (95% CI: 14.2–18.1). A positive and independent association (p<0.05) was observed between good simultaneous control of CVRF with age (OR: 1.017) and with personal history of cardiovascular disease (OR: 1.596). Conclusions: The results of our study indicate that a small proportion, less than two out of 10 patients, meet the good control goals recommended by clinical practice guidelines. We found important differences between patients with and without cardiovascular disease (AU)

Análisis del grado de cumplimiento de las recomendaciones de las guías de práctica clínica para el diagnóstico y seguimiento de las complicaciones crónicas vasculares en la diabetes tipo 2 en atención primaria / Analysis of the level of compliance to the clinical practice guidelines recommendations for the diagnosis and monitoring of chronic vascular complications in type 2 diabetes in Primary Care

OBJETIVOS: Evaluar el grado de cumplimiento de las recomendaciones de las guías de práctica clínica (GPC) en el diagnóstico y seguimiento de las principales complicaciones crónicas vasculares de los pacientes con diabetes tipo2 (DM2) en atención primaria (AP). MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS: Estudio descriptivo transversal retrospectivo en pacientes de 18 o más años de edad seleccionados consecutivamente a medida que acudieron a la consulta en AP. Los datos de los pacientes se obtuvieron mediante acceso a la historia informatizada, registrándose variables clínicas y analíticas de interés. Se consideró adecuada la determinación y el registro de microalbuminuria (MALB), filtrado glomerular (FG), exploración pies (palpación pulsos, monofilamento o diapasón) y electrocardiograma (ECG) si habían sido realizados de manera anual, y del fondo de ojo (FO) cada dos años. RESULTADOS: Se incluyó a 1.420 pacientes (55,8% varones), con una edad media (DE) de 70,6 (10,8) años y una media de 9,3 (6,2) años de evolución de su diabetes. El índice de masa corporal (IMC) medio (kg/m2) fue de 30,1 (5,4) en mujeres y de 29,5 (4,7) en varones (p = 0,023) y la HbA1c (%), de 6,9 (1,2). El buen control metabólico de la DM se alcanzó en el 63,0% (IC95%: 60,4-65,5). Tenían realizado FO en los dos últimos años 976 pacientes (68,7%; IC95%: 66,2-71,1). La MALB se había realizado a 1.228 pacientes (86,5%; IC95%: 84,6-88,2), el FG estimado a 1.391 (98,0%; IC95%: 97,1-98,6), la exploración de los pulsos del pie a 626 (44,1%; IC95%: 41,5-46,7) y la exploración neurológica a 473 (33,3%; IC95%: 30,8-35,8). CONCLUSIONES: Los resultados de nuestro estudio indican que en una proporción importante de los pacientes con DM2 no se explora la presencia de retinopatía ni de neuropatía. A siete de cada diez pacientes se les ha cribado de retinopatía, uno de cada tres tiene realizada exploración neurológica y uno de cada cuatro tiene realizadas todas las exploraciones recomendadas por las GPC

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the level of compliance to the clinical practice guidelines (CPG) recommendations for the diagnosis and monitoring of the main chronic vascular complications of patients with type2 diabetes (DM2) in Primary Care (PC). MATERIAL AND METHODS: A retrospective cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted on patients aged 18years and over and consecutively selected in PC. Patient data were obtained by direct interview and access to the computerised history, and recording the clinical and analytical variables of interest. The determination and recording of urine microalbumin (MALB), glomerular filtration rate (GFR), foot examination (pulse palpation, monofilament or tuning fork), and electrocardiogram (ECG), if performed annually, and the eye fundus (FO) every two years. RESULTS: A total of 1,420 patients were included, of which 55.8% were male. The mean age (SD) was 70.6 (10.8) years and the mean onset of the diabetes was 9.3 (6.2) years. The mean BMI (kg /m2) was 30.1 (5.4) in females and 29.5 (4.7) in males (P=.023), and a mean HbA1c (%) of 6.9 (1.2). Good metabolic control of DM was achieved in 63.0% (95%CI: 60.4-65.5). In the last two years, 976 (68.7%; 95%CI: 66.2-71.1) patients had an eye fundus examination. The urine microalbumin had been performed on 1,228 patients (86.5%; 95%CI: 84.6-88.2). The mean glomerular filtration rate was performed on 1,391 patients (98.0%; 95%CI: 97.1-98.6), the foot pulses examination on 626 (44.1%; 95%CI: 41.5-46.7), and the neurological examination on 473 patients (33.3%; 95%CI: 30.8-35.8). CONCLUSIONS: The results of the present study indicate that the presence of retinopathy or neuropathy is not explored in a significant percentage of patients with DM2. Only seven out of ten patients have been screened for retinopathy, one in three had a neurological examination, and only one in four have all the scans recommended by the CPG
