RESUMO

Objective: dietary advice provided through a nutritional intervention program (NIP) is recommended by renal clinic guidelines to prevent or treat malnutrition, that could improve quality of life (QoL) and survival in hemodialysis (HD) patients. This study set out to evaluate the effect of a personalized NIP on the nutritional status and its impact on QoL and mortality in dialyzed patients. Material and methods: this was a 12-month intervention study with regular follow-up in which nutritional parameters were measured at baseline and after 6 and 12 months. QoL was assessed by the Kidney Disease Quality of Life version 1.2 (KDQOL-SF) at baseline and at the end of the study. All dialyzed patients received individualized consultations with a trained dietitian. The content of the nutritional education program included a personalized meal plan and educational materials addressing nutrition to manage fluids, electrolytes, and vitamin D. Results: a total of 75 patients were included. After the NIP, visceral proteins, phosphorous, potassium and vitamin D levels had improved significantly (p < 0.001). The percentage of well-nourished patients increased by 30 % (p < 0.001). At the end of the study, the well-nourished patients had significantly improved scores on the general summary areas of the KDQOL-SF, reduced worry concerning fluid and dietary restrictions (p < 0.001), and the survival rate was 12 months longer (p < 0.01). Conclusion: the results of this study suggest that personalized NIP contributed to improved nutritional status, QoL and survival in HD patients. (AU)

RESUMO

Objective: to assess the prevalence of hypovitaminosis D in patients undergoing haemodialysis (HD) and to determine its relationship with nutritional status and quality of life (QoL). Material and methods: 120 patients were included in the study. The Malnutrition-Inflammation Score (MIS) was used to detect nutritional risk. QoL was evaluated by Kidney Disease Quality of Life version 1.2 (KDQOL-SF). Patients were stratified into three groups according to their vitamin D status: sufficiency (≥ 30 ng/dl), insufficiency (29-10 ng/dl) and deficiency (< 10 ng/dl). Results: hypovitaminosis D was detected in 71 % of the patients studied. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that vitamin-D deficiency was the most significant predictor of low KDQOL-SF scores. It explained 21 % of the variance in the Kidney Disease Component Summary, 27 % of that in the Physical Component Summary, and 22 % of that in the Mental Component Summary. Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that only vitamin-D deficiency was significantly associated with malnutrition (OR, 14.6, p < 0.001). Conclusion: HD patients frequently present with hypovitaminosis D. There is a significant correlation between vitamin-D deficiency, poorer nutritional status, and worse QoL in dialysed patients.

Objetivo: evaluar la prevalencia de la hipovitaminosis D en pacientes en hemodiálisis (HD) y su relación con el estado nutricional y la calidad de vida (CV). Material y métodos: un total de 120 pacientes fueron incluidos. La escala de Malnutrición-Inflamación (MIS) se utilizó para la detección del riesgo nutricional. La CV fue evaluada por el cuestionario Kidney Disease Quality of Life versión 1.2 (KDQOL-SF). Los pacientes fueron estratificados en tres grupos de acuerdo con el estado de la vitamina D: suficiencia (≥ 30 ng/dl), insuficiencia (29-10 ng/dl) y deficiencia (< 10 ng/dl). Resultados: se observó hipovitaminosis D en el 71 % de los pacientes. El análisis de regresión lineal múltiple mostró que la deficiencia devitamina D fue el predictor más significativo de peores resultados en el cuestionario KDQOL-SF. La deficiencia de 25(OH)D explicó el 21 % de la varianza en el componente sumatorio de la enfermedad renal, el 27 % en el componente sumatorio físico y el 22 % en el componente sumatorio mental. Cuando evaluamos el estado nutricional, el análisis de regresión logística multivariante mostró que solo la deficiencia de vitamina D presenta un efecto significativo en la desnutrición (OR: 14.6, p < 0,001). Conclusión: de nuestros hallazgos concluimos que la hipovitaminosis D es muy frecuente entre los pacientes en HD y que su deficiencia está asociada un deterioro del estado nutricional y peor percepción de la calidad de vida.

RESUMO

Introduction: Objective: to assess and analyse a medication adaptation pathway for feeding tube administration followed by clinical pharmacists for patients at discharge, and to analyse the level of physician acceptance of the recommendations issued by pharmacists in pharmaceutical care reports to improve patient therapy. Methods: a multidisciplinary protocol for treatment adaptation to feeding tube administration at discharge was implemented in a 350-bed hospital during 2019, in which pharmacists prepared feeding tube medication-adaptation reports during pharmaceutical care visits. The number of recommendations related to adaptation of a drug to route of administration was recorded and classified as need for change of active substance or change of pharmaceutical form. Physician acceptance of pharmacist recommendations was analysed in a one-year retrospective observational study. Results: a total of 66 pharmaceutical care visits were recorded for 57 patients (1.2 visits per patient). In 47 of these 66 visits (71.2 %), at least one drug modification was required in a patient prescription, and the median number of drugs per patient needing to be modified was 2. Overall, 93 of the 489 prescribed drugs (19.0 %) required some changes to be suitable for administration via feeding tube: change of active substance in 52.7 % (49/93) of cases, and change of pharmaceutical form in 47.3 % (44/93) of cases. The physicians' level of acceptance of recommendations was 43.0 % (40/93), and change of pharmaceutical form was less accepted than change of active substance. Conclusion: the inclusion of clinical pharmacists in multidisciplinary teams leads to an improvement in adapting medication to feeding tube administration, but also shows a lack of communication or understanding of pharmacist recommendations by physicians resulting in a low rate of prescription changes.


Introducción: Objetivo: evaluar y analizar un circuito de adaptación de la medicación para la administración por sonda de alimentación llevado a cabo por farmacéuticos clínicos para pacientes al alta, y analizar el nivel de aceptación por parte de los médicos de las recomendaciones emitidas por los farmacéuticos en los informes de atención farmacéutica para mejorar la terapia de los pacientes. Métodos: durante el año 2019 se implementó en un hospital de 350 camas un protocolo multidisciplinario de adaptación del tratamiento para la administración por sonda de alimentación al alta, en el cual los farmacéuticos elaboraron informes de adaptación de la medicación por sonda de alimentación durante las visitas de atención farmacéutica. Se registró el número de recomendaciones relacionadas con la adecuación del fármaco a la vía de administración y se clasificaron como necesidad de cambio de principio activo o cambio de forma farmacéutica. La aceptación de las recomendaciones de los farmacéuticos por parte de los médicos se analizó en un estudio observacional retrospectivo de un año. Resultados: se registraron un total de 66 visitas de atención farmacéutica para 57 pacientes (1,2 visitas por paciente). En 47 de estas 66 visitas (71,2 %) se requirió al menos una modificación de medicamentos en la prescripción de los pacientes, y la mediana de medicamentos por paciente que necesitaban modificarse fue de 2. En total, 93 de los 489 medicamentos prescritos (19,0 %) requirió algunos cambios para ser aptos para la administración por sonda: cambio de principio activo en el 52,7 % (49/93) de los casos y cambio de forma farmacéutica en el 47,3 % (44/93) de los casos. El nivel de aceptación de las recomendaciones por parte de los médicos fue del 43,0 % (40/93), siendo menos aceptado el cambio de forma farmacéutica que el cambio de principio activo. Conclusión: la inclusión de farmacéuticos clínicos en equipos multidisciplinarios conduce a una mejora en la adaptación de la medicación a la administración por sonda de alimentación, pero también muestra que existe una falta de comunicación o comprensión de las recomendaciones de los farmacéuticos por parte de los médicos, lo que resulta en una baja tasa de cambios en la prescripción.

RESUMO

Malnutrition is frequent in hemodialysis (HD) patients. Nutritional deficiencies may negatively impact quality of life (QOL). This study examines the utility of the Malnutrition-Inflammation Score (MIS) in detecting nutritional risk (NR) and assesses the correlation between nutritional status and QOL in dialysis patients upon starting a nutritional intervention program (NIP). One hundred and twenty patients were included in this cross-sectional study. The MIS was used to detect NR and the Kidney Disease Quality of Life (KDQOL-SF) instrument version 1.2 was used to assess QOL. 62% of patients were found to be at NR (MIS > 5). Nutritional status was significantly correlated with all generic QOL sub-scales. On a multiple linear regression analysis, malnutrition showed the highest level of explanation in the Kidney Disease Summary Component which explained 28.9% of the variance; the Physical Component Summary which explained 33% of the variance; and the Mental Component Summary which explained 21.5% of the variance. Malnutrition was found to be the most significant predictor of impaired scores on the KDQOL-SF. The use of MIS to identify patients at NR and a nutritional assessment to detect malnutrition in its early stages are important given the effects a NIP can have on improving QOL in HD patients.

RESUMO

Introduction: Generic drugs are helpful to enhance the efficiency of the sanitary system. A generic coformulation of abacavir (ABC) and lamivudine (3TC) is available since 2016 in Spain. A report of our experience with its use is exposed. Methods: Patients between February 2017 and June 2017 who were taking Triumeq® were switched to the generic ABC + 3TC plus DTG. Efficacy, safety, reasons for discontinuation and costs savings were evaluated at 48 weeks. Results: Switch was made in 93 patients, with a median age of 47 years and a mean time of 12.33 years with HIV infection. Six patients (6.5%) discontinued the new ART, being toxicity of the central nervous system the most frequent reason. The effective saving derived from the change after 1 year of treatment was 151.127 €. Conclusions: The change from Triumeq® to a generic regimen of ABC + 3TC and another pill of DTG seems to be safe and efficient at 48 weeks.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Generic drugs may help to support antiretroviral treatment. We want to assess the efficacy and safety at 24 weeks of the change of coformulated (abacavir + lamivudine + dolutegravir) to (abacavir + lamivudine) coformulated as a generic pharmaceutical specialty + dolutegravir. METHODS: Between February and June 2017, switch from Triumeq® to a generic pharmaceutical specialty co-formulated tablet (abacavir + lamivudine) plus Tivicay® was made. Demographic, viroimmunological characteristics and the Charlson index were collected. Six months after switching, efficacy and safety were evaluated. RESULTS: Switch was made in 93 patients, with a mean age of 47 years, after six months there were five patients (5.4%) with viral loads between 50 and 400 copies, no patient had viral loads of greater amount. There were 2 interruptions due to toxicity (2.15%), in relation to symptoms of the central nervous system. There were no differences in the amount of years with HAART, nor in the previous months with the STR regimen based on abacavir + lamivudine + dolutegravir, nor in the Charlson index. The effective saving in 2017 derived from the change in these 93 patients was € 125.512. CONCLUSIONS: The change from a regimen of abacavir + lamivudine + dolutegravir seems to be safe and effective at 24 weeks.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: Docetaxel is one of the most widely used anticancer drugs and an ideal candidate for the development of generic formulations to reduce the economic cost. However, the use of generic drugs is an issue of debate because studies of their safety and efficacy in comparison with the original drug are not required for approval. The aim of this study is to determine whether the change in the formulation of the original drug is responsible for the toxicity changes observed. METHODS: A retrospective study contrasts the incidence of acute infusion reactions and skin reactions to four different presentations of docetaxel including the original drug. These drugs differ in the amounts of excipients. RESULTS: 1.031 doses of docetaxel were administered to 268 patients. A total of 26 grade 3/4 infusion reactions were detected. Compared to the original formulation, the relative risk of acute infusion reaction was 3.74 (1.52-9.18, p = 0.002), 0.57 (0.19-1.64, p = 0.288) and 0.37 (0.1-1.34, p = 0.117) for the patients treated with drugs 2, 3 and 4. For the dermal toxicity, 9 % of patients suffered a clinically significant skin reaction. The relative risks of clinically significant dermal toxicity for the different formulations of docetaxel versus the original formulation were as follows: 6.15 (2.78-13.58) and 7.13 (3.24-15.69) for drugs 3 and 4 (p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Our study suggests that some toxic effects of docetaxel may be related to the excipients used in different formulations of the drug.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The inappropriate use of antimicrobial agents may contribute to the development of bacterial resistance to the principal antimicrobial drugs. There is no provision in the immediate future of marketing of new broad-spectrum antibiotics, especially with activity against Enterobacteriaceae, so programs should be implemented to optimize antimicrobial therapy. We describe the results of a year of a counselling program in antibiotic treatment in a secondary Andalusian hospital. METHODS: We describe 276 interventions of a multidisciplinary non-compulsory counselling program of antimicrobial management on the Costa del Sol Hospital in Marbella. We evaluated the adequacy of empirical treatment, possibility of antibiotic de-escalation, duration and dose used. We analyzed the evolution of the sensitivity profile of the main microorganisms as well as a cost-effective analysis. RESULTS: 90% of the recommendations were accepted. The main actions were assessment of empirical therapy and deescalation in relation with the result of cultures. The main drugs tested were imipenem, meropenem, cefepime, and linezolid. The sensitivity profile of imipenem and meropenem improved slightly over previous years. It was found a considerable savings in annual drug spending. CONCLUSIONS: The non-compulsory counselling programs are useful tools for optimization of antimicrobial therapy, can prevent an increase of antimicrobial resistance and reduce the cost of antibiotic treatment.

RESUMO

Objetivo: El uso inadecuado de antibióticos puede originar un incremento en la resistencia bacteriana a los principales antimicrobianos. No existe una previsión en el futuro inmediato de comercialización de nuevos antibióticos de amplio espectro, en especial con actividad frente a enterobacterias. Por este motivo deben implantarse programas para la optimización del tratamiento antimicrobiano. Describimos los resultados de un año de un programa de asesoramiento en tratamiento antibiótico en un hospital de segundo nivel andaluz. Métodos: Se describen 276 intervenciones de un programa multidisciplinar de consejo terapéutico no impositivo en el Hospital Costa del Sol de Marbella. Se valoró la adecuación del tratamiento empírico, posibilidades de desescalado antibiótico, la duración y dosis empleada. Se analizó la evolución del perfil de sensibilidad de los principales microorganismos así como un análisis de coste-eficacia. Resultados: El 90% de los consejos emitidos fueron aceptados. Las principales actuaciones fueron para valoración de tratamiento empírico y desescalado en función de cultivos. Los principales fármacos evaluados fueron imipenem, ertapenem, cefepima y linezolid. El perfil de sensibilidad de imipenem y meropenem mejoró discretamente respecto a años previos. Se constató un considerable ahorro en el gasto farmacéutico anual. Conclusiones: Los programas de asesoramiento no impositivos son herramientas útiles para la optimización del tratamiento antimicrobiano, pueden evitar el incremento de resistencias bacterianas y disminuir el coste del tratamiento antibiótico(AU)
