RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Innovation in internet connectivity and the Covid 19 pandemic have caused a dramatic change in the management of patients in the medical field, boosting the use of telemedicine. A comparison of clinical outcomes and satisfaction between conventional face-to-face and telemedicine follow-up in general surgery, an economic evaluation is mandatory. The aim of the present study was to compare the differences in economic costs between these two outpatient approaches in a designed randomized controlled trial (RCT). METHODS: A RCT was conducted enrolling 200 patients to compare conventional in-person vs. digital health follow-up using telemedicine in the outpatient clinics in patients of General Surgery Department after their planned discharge. After a demonstration that no differences were found in clinical outcomes and patient satisfaction, we analyzed the medical costs, including staff wages, initial investment, patent's transportation and impact on social costs. RESULTS: After an initial investment of 7527.53€, the costs for the Medical institution of in-person conventional follow-up were higher (8180.4€) than those using telemedicine (4630.06€). In relation to social costs, loss of productivity was also increased in the conventional follow-up. CONCLUSION: The use of digital Health telemedicine is a cost-effective approach compared to conventional face-to-face follow-up in patients of General Surgery after hospital discharge.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The methodology used for recording, evaluating and reporting postoperative complications (PC) is unknown. The aim of the present study was to determine how PC are recorded, evaluated, and reported in General and Digestive Surgery Services (GDSS) in Spain, and to assess their stance on morbidity audits. METHODS: Using a cross-sectional study design, an anonymous survey of 50 questions was sent to all the heads of GDSS at hospitals in Spain. RESULTS: The survey was answered by 67 out of 222 services (30.2%). These services have a reference population (RP) of 15 715 174 inhabitants, representing 33% of the Spanish population. Only 15 services reported being requested to supply data on morbidity by their hospital administrators. Eighteen GDSS, with a RP of 3 241 000 (20.6%) did not record PC. Among these, 7 were accredited for some area of training. Thirty-six GDSS (RP 8 753 174 (55.7%) did not provide details on all PC in patients' discharge reports. Twenty-four (37%) of the 65 GDSS that had started using a new surgical procedure/technique had not recorded PC in any way. Sixty-five GDSS were not concerned by the prospect of their results being audited, and 65 thought that a more comprehensive knowledge of PC would help them improve their results. Out of the 37 GDSS that reported publishing their results, 27 had consulted only one source of information: medical progress records in 11 cases, and discharge reports in 9. CONCLUSIONS: This study reflects serious deficiencies in the recording, evaluation and reporting of PC by GDSS in Spain.

RESUMO

Introducción. La deuda económica durante la residencia en cirugía general puede afectar el desempeño profesional, las decisiones de vida y el bienestar psicológico. La información disponible en Colombia es limitada. El objetivo de este estudio fue cuantificar la deuda económica del residente de cirugía general, identificar los factores asociados y evaluar su efecto en el bienestar psicológico. Métodos. Estudio de corte transversal analítico. Se invitó a 380 residentes a diligenciar una encuesta sobre los aspectos relacionados con su deuda económica y se utilizó el WHO-index para evaluar su bienestar psicológico. Resultados. Un total de 259 residentes participaron en el estudio (67,6 %). El 56 % posee una deuda económica promedio de COP $88.000.000 ((US$21.826)). Un alto nivel de endeudamiento se relacionó con el año de residencia, el tipo de institución (privada) y la solicitud de préstamos. Se identificó algún trastorno mental en 14,7 % y un bajo nivel de bienestar psicológico en 56,4 % de los participantes. No se identificó ninguna asociación entre una elevada deuda económica y el bajo bienestar psicológico. Conclusiones. La deuda económica tiene un efecto sobre los residentes. El endeudamiento de los residentes de cirugía en Colombia es altamente prevalente, y no se correlaciona con un pobre bienestar psicológico. La autodeterminación favorece el bienestar psicológico en el posgrado en cirugía general. Existe la necesidad de educación financiera en los residentes. Se requieren nuevos estudios que evalúen las causas del pobre bienestar psicológico.


Introduction. Financial debt during surgery residency can affect professional performance, life decisions, and psychological well-being. The information available in Colombia is limited. The objective of this study is to quantify the financial debt of the general surgery resident, identify the associated factors and evaluate their effect on psychological well-being. Methods. A cross-sectional study was carried out. A total of 380 residents were invited to complete a survey on aspects related to their financial debt, and the WHO-index to evaluate their psychological well-being. Results. A total of 259 residents participated in the study (67.6%). 56% have an average economic debt of $88,000,000 COP (US$21,826). High debt was related to level of residence, type of institution (private), and loan application. Some mental disorder was identified in 14.7% and a low level of psychological well-being in 56.4% of the participants. No association was identified between high financial debt and low psychological well-being. Conclusions. Economic debt has an effect on residents. Financial debt among surgical residents in Colombia is highly prevalent; however, it does not correlate with poor psychological well-being. Self-determination favors psychological well-being in the postgraduate course in general surgery. Likewise, the need for financial education in residents is imminent. New studies are required that thoroughly evaluate the causes of poor well-being.

RESUMO

Introducción. Los cuidados paliativos responden al sufrimiento de pacientes terminales y requieren personal entrenado para la intervención. Forman parte de la actividad en cirugía, sin embargo, no encontramos información sobre la educación de postgrado en cirugía en Colombia. El objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar el nivel de conocimientos en cuidados paliativos, la calidad de la formación y las estrategias pedagógicas en los residentes. Métodos. Estudio observacional con recolección de la información autodiligenciada por medio electrónico. Resultados. Participaron 228 residentes, 7,8 % mencionaron asistir a rotación en cuidado paliativo y 66,6 % tener contacto con especialistas en cuidados paliativos. El 30,7 % no identificó una estrategia pedagógica clara. El 29,3 % tuvo alto nivel de conocimiento y 21,1 % adecuada calidad de formación. El 83,8 % tuvo un alto nivel en el manejo de obstrucción intestinal. No hubo asociación entre el nivel de conocimiento y las variables evaluadas (p>0,05). Conclusiones. Ni el aprendizaje recibido, ni el año de entrenamiento tuvieron efecto en el nivel percibido de conocimiento. Las competencias en cuidados paliativos, sus métodos y la calidad del aprendizaje son deficientes a nivel de postgrado en cirugía en Colombia. Probablemente está en un currículo oculto. Es necesario implementar estrategias pedagógicas en los currículos de estudios de los programas de formación de cirujanos.


Introduction. Palliative care responds to the suffering of terminal patients and requires trained personnel for intervention. They are part of the activity in surgery; however, we did not find information about postgraduate education in surgery in Colombia. The objective of this study was to evaluate the level of knowledge in palliative care, the quality of training and pedagogical strategies in residents. Methods. Observational study with self-completed information collection by electronic means. Results. A total of 228 residents participated, 7.8% mentioned a palliative care rotation and 66.6% mentioned having contact with palliative care specialists; 30.7% did not identify a clear pedagogical strategy; 29.3% had a high level of knowledge and 21.1% had adequate quality of training; 83.8% had a high level in the management of intestinal obstruction. There was no association between the level of knowledge and the variables evaluated (p>0.05). Conclusions. Neither the learning received nor the year of training had an effect on the perceived level of knowledge. Competencies in palliative care, its methods and the quality of learning are deficient at the postgraduate level in surgery in Colombia. It is probably on a hidden resume. It is necessary to implement pedagogical strategies in the study curricula of surgeon training programs.

RESUMO

Introducción: El conocimiento de los eventos adversos (EA) en los hospitales de agudos es un aspecto de especial relevancia en la seguridad del paciente. Su incidencia oscila entre un 3-17% y la cirugía se relaciona con la aparición de entre un 46-65% de todos los EA. Material y métodos: Se realiza un estudio observacional, descriptivo, retrospectivo y multicéntrico, con la participación de 31 hospitales de agudos españoles, para la determinación y análisis de los EA en los servicios de cirugía general. Resultados: La prevalencia de EA fue del 31,53%. Los tipos de EA más frecuentes fueron de tipo infeccioso (35%). Los pacientes con mayores grados de ASA, mayor complejidad y un tipo de ingreso urgente son factores asociados a la presencia de EA. A la mayoría de los pacientes se les atribuyó una categoría de daño F (daño temporal al paciente que requiera iniciar o prolongar la hospitalización) (58,42%). El 14,69% de los EA son considerados graves. El 34,22% de los EA se consideraron evitables. Conclusiones: La prevalencia de EA en los pacientes de cirugía general y del aparato digestivo (CGAD) es elevada. La mayor parte de los EA fueron de tipo infeccioso. El EA más frecuente fue la infección de herida o sitio quirúrgico. Los pacientes con mayores grados de ASA, mayor complejidad y un tipo de ingreso urgente son factores asociados a la presencia de EA. La mayoría de los EA detectados han supuesto un daño leve o moderado sobre los pacientes. Alrededor de un tercio de EA fueron evitables.(AU)


Introduction: Knowledge of adverse events (AE) in acute care hospitals is a particularly relevant aspect of patient safety. Its incidence ranges from 3% to 17%, and surgery is related to the occurrence of 46%-65% of all AE. Material and methods: An observational, descriptive, retrospective, multicenter study was conducted with the participation of 31 Spanish acute-care hospitals to determine and analyze AE in general surgery services. Results: The prevalence of AE was 31.53%. The most frequent types of AE were infectious (35%). Higher ASA grades, greater complexity and urgent-type admission are factors associated with the presence of AE. The majority of patients (58.42%) were attributed a category F event (temporary harm to the patient requiring initial or prolonged hospitalization); 14.69% of AE were considered severe, while 34.22% of AE were considered preventable. Conclusions: The prevalence of AE in General and GI Surgery (GGIS) patients is high. Most AE were infectious, and the most frequent AE was surgical site infection. Higher ASA grades, greater complexity and urgent-type admission are factors associated with the presence of AE. Most detected AE resulted in mild or moderate harm to the patients. About one-third of AE were preventable.(AU)

RESUMO

Introducción. El currículo para la formación del cirujano general exige precisión, ajuste al contexto y factibilidad. En 2022, la World Society of Emergency Surgery formuló cinco declaraciones sobre el entrenamiento en cirugía digestiva mínimamente invasiva de emergencia que puede contribuir a estos propósitos. El objetivo del presente artículo fue examinar el alcance de estas declaraciones para la educación quirúrgica en Colombia. Métodos. Se analizó desde una posición crítica y reflexiva el alcance y limitaciones para Colombia de cada una de las declaraciones de la World Society of Emergency Surgery, con base en la evidencia empírica publicada durante las últimas dos décadas en revistas indexadas nacionales e internacionales. Resultados. La evidencia empírica producida en Colombia durante el presente siglo permite identificar que el país cuenta con fundamentos del currículo nacional en cirugía general, formulado por la División de Educación de la Asociación Colombiana de Cirugía en 2021; un sistema de acreditación de la educación superior; un modelo de aseguramiento universal en salud; infraestructura tecnológica y condiciones institucionales que pueden facilitar la adopción exitosa de dichas declaraciones para el entrenamiento de los futuros cirujanos en cirugía digestiva mínimamente invasiva de emergencia. No obstante, su implementación requiere esfuerzos mayores e inversión en materia de simulación quirúrgica, cooperación institucional y fortalecimiento del sistema de recertificación profesional. Conclusión. La educación quirúrgica colombiana está en capacidad de cumplir con las declaraciones de la World Society of Emergency Surgery en materia de entrenamiento en cirugía digestiva mínimamente invasiva de emergencia.


Introduction. The general surgeon training curriculum requires precision, contextual fit, and feasibility. In 2022, the World Society of Emergency Surgery formulated five statements on training in emergency minimally invasive digestive surgery, which can contribute to these purposes. This article examines the scope of these declarations for surgical education in Colombia. Methods. The scope and limitations for Colombia of each of the statements of the World Society of Emergency Surgery were analysed from a critical and reflective position, based on empirical evidence published during the last two decades in national and international indexed journals. Results. The empirical evidence produced in Colombia during this century allows us to identify that the country has the foundations of the national curriculum in general surgery, formulated by the Education Division of the Colombian Association of Surgery in 2021; a higher education accreditation system; a universal health insurance model; technological infrastructure, and institutional conditions that can facilitate the successful adoption of said statements for the training of future surgeons in emergency minimally invasive digestive surgery. However, its implementation requires greater efforts and investment in surgical simulation, institutional cooperation, and strengthening of the professional recertification system. Conclusion. Colombian surgical education is able to comply with the declarations of the World Society of Emergency Surgery regarding training in emergency minimally invasive digestive surgery.

RESUMO

La enfermedad de Hirschsprung (EH) es infrecuente y la mayoría de los escasos casos se presentan en neonatos, raramente se diagnostica durante la adolescencia y menos son los casos documentados. Se presenta el caso de un varón de 16 años quien experimentó 15 días de estreñimiento, anorexia, vómitos postprandiales y distensión abdominal. Los exámenes imagenológicos mostraron un fecaloma masivo que obstruía el colon, y el examen anatomopatológico señaló EH. Ante el fracaso de medidas conservadoras de evacuación se realizó una hemicolectomía izquierda ampliada y una colostomía, más apendicectomía por obstrucción intestinal. El paciente fue dado de alta con antibioticoterapia. Este caso resalta la importancia de considerar EH en adolescentes con estreñimiento crónico y masas abdominales. Aunque los pacientes pueden experimentar problemas postoperatorios, la cirugía es el tratamiento más efectivo para la EH.


Hirschsprung's disease (HD) is uncommon, and most of the cases occur in neonates. It is rarely diagnosed during adolescence, and even fewer cases are documented. We present the case of a 16-year-old male who had 15 days of constipation, anorexia, postprandial vomiting and abdominal distension. Imaging examinations showed a massive fecaloma obstructing the colon, and histopathological examinations showed HD. Given the failure of conservative evacuation measures, an extended left hemicolectomy and colostomy were performed, plus appendectomy for bowel obstruction. The patient was discharged with antibiotic therapy. This case highlights the importance of considering HD in adolescents with chronic constipation and abdominal masses. Although patients may experience postoperative problems, surgery is the most effective treatment for HD.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Every year hundreds of medical residents choose their specialization in various surgical fields. However, these numbers have been poorly analyzed. The objective of this study was to evaluate the selection of General and Digestive Surgery by medical residents and compare these results with the selection of other surgical specialties. METHODS: Cross-sectional observational study. The data from the selection of the medical residents from surgical specialties and the top 10 most demanded specialties between the years 2018 and 2022 were included. An analysis of adjusted ranking numbers based on the number of available positions was also conducted. RESULTS: The number of available positions in General and Digestive Surgery increased by 17.7% during the study period. However, the selection of our specialty has been delayed, with a median ranking number of 2419 (IQR: 1621-3284) in 2018, and 3484 (IQR: 2306-4156) in 2022 (p: .000). These differences remained significant after adjusting for the number of available positions (p: .000). The choice of Urology, Thoracic Surgery, Cardiovascular Surgery, Gastroenterology, and Paediatrics also declined during this period, while Plastic Surgery, Dermatology, Ophthalmology, Anesthesiology, and Endocrinology improved their numbers. CONCLUSION: The choice of General and Digestive Surgery has been delayed according to the data from the MIR selection of 2018-2022. The increase in the number of available positions has not been associated with a proportional increase in demand.

RESUMO

Se presenta el caso de una paciente de 35 años, femenina, con antecedentes de presentar un soplo desde la infancia y que debía ser intervenida quirúrgicamente por fibroma uterino. El anestesiólogo, durante la consulta preoperatoria, constató el soplo ya mencionado por lo que se decidió posponer la cirugía e interconsultar con un cardiólogo. El examen ecocardiográfico demostró que la paciente era portadora de una estenosis aórtica severa con fracción de eyección conservada, prueba ergométrica: clase funcional I, sin isquemia. Mediante anestesia general orotraqueal, se realizó histerectomía total abdominal sin complicaciones. Es de vital importancia para el anestesiólogo el manejo perioperatorio de la estenosis aórtica.


The case of a 35-years-old female patient with a history of presenting a murmur since childhood and who had to undergo surgery for uterine fibroid is presented. The anesthesiologist, during the preoperative consultation, verified the aforementioned murmur, so it was decided to postpone surgery and consult with a cardiologist. The echocardiographic examination showed that the patient had severe aortic stenosis with preserved ejection fraction, stress test: functional class I, without ischemia. Using orotracheal general anesthesia, a total abdominal hysterectomy was performed without complications. The perioperative management of aortic stenosis is of vital importance for the anesthesiologist.

RESUMO

El envejecimiento es un largo proceso de carácter universal propio de los seres vivos. Es notorio su crecimiento a nivel de la población mundial y no resulta exclusivo para los países desarrollados. El paciente anciano presenta grandes retos debido a las alteraciones propiciadas por el proceso de envejecimiento, que se acompaña de disminución de la capacidad de respuesta con deterioro en grado desigual de una serie de funciones morfofisiológicas, psicológicas y bioquímicas. Por otra parte, la atención médica a pacientes portadores de afecciones quirúrgicas de urgencia desata desafíos al equipo de trabajo ante la necesidad de brindar al enfermo una asistencia con un mínimo de preparación, lo que conlleva identificar estado de salud en un periodo de tiempo aceptable, lograr una estabilización previa al acto quirúrgico y favorecer una recuperación satisfactoria. Por tales razones, se realizó esta revisión bibliográfica con el propósito de resaltar una serie de factores que acompañan el proceso de envejecimiento y sus implicaciones para el proceder anestésico.


Aging is a universal nature long process, typical of living beings. Its growth at the world population level is notorious and it is not exclusive to developed countries. The elderly patient presents great challenges due to the alterations caused by the aging process, which is accompanied by decreased response capacity with uneven deterioration of a series of morphophysiological, psychological and biochemical functions. On the other hand, medical care for patients with urgent surgical conditions unleashes challenges for the work team due to the need to provide the patient with assistance with a minimum of preparation, which entails identifying a state of health in an acceptable period of time, achieve stabilization prior to the surgical act and favor a satisfactory recovery. For these reasons, this bibliographical review was carried out to highlight a series of factors that take part in the aging process and its implications for the anesthetic procedure.

RESUMO

Introducción Se desconoce la importancia del acceso temprano a la fisioterapia (FT) en personas sometidas a cirugía abdominal de urgencia, por lo tanto este estudio se enfocó en determinar la efectividad de la FT temprana versus tardía en la mejora de niveles funcionales y reducción de complicaciones postoperatorias (CP) en adultos sometidos a este procedimiento. Metodología Estudio retrospectivo que incluyó a 132 pacientes ingresados por cirugía abdominal de urgencia. Se registró el inicio de FT (temprana vs. tardía), se evaluó la funcionalidad mediante índice de Barthel y la puntuación acumulada de deambulación (CAS), las CP y la duración de la estancia hospitalaria. Resultados Las personas que recibieron FT temprana exhibieron CP de menor gravedad (p=0,012). Asimismo, el grupo con FT temprana tuvo estancias hospitalarias más cortas (mediana=10 vs. 17 días; p=0,0001). Adicionalmente, se observó que la funcionalidad intrahospitalaria disminuyó respecto a valores prehospitalarios (índice de Barthel y CAS), mientras que al alta se observaron incrementos parciales, sin diferencias entre los grupos que recibieron FT temprana o tardía. Sin embargo, el grupo con FT temprana requirió un menor número de sesiones de FT motora (p=0,04). Conclusión En el presente estudio el desarrollo de CP de menor gravedad, menores estancias hospitalarias y una menor necesidad de FT motora fue observada en pacientes sometidos a cirugía abdominal de urgencia que recibieron FT temprana respecto a tardía. Esto sugiere que la FT temprana en este contexto optimizaría los recursos asociados a la atención en salud, mejorando además el proceso posquirúrgico en estos pacientes (AU)


Introduction Given that the relevancy of early physiotherapy (PT) in persons undergoing emergency abdominal surgery is unknown, this study aimed to determine the effectiveness of early versus late physiotherapy in improving functional levels and reducing postoperative complications (PC) in adults undergoing this procedure. Methodology Longitudinal retrospective study which included a sample of 132 patients admitted for emergency abdominal surgery. Functionality was evaluated using the Barthel index and the cumulated ambulation score (CAS). In addition, the type of PT (early vs. late) and the date of its onset were recorded, the PC during the hospital stay and the length of stay were recorded. Results Patients that received early PT exhibited less severe postoperative complications (p=0.012). Moreover, this group had a shorter length of stay (median=10 vs. 17 days; p=0.0001). In addition, in terms of functionality, decreases were observed during hospitalization compared with baseline levels (Barthel index and CAS), whereas a partial increase was observed at discharge, without differences between the patients that received early PT or not. Nevertheless, the early PT group required a lower number of PT sessions (p=0.04). Conclusion In this study, a less severe postoperative complications rate, shorter length of stay, and lower necessity of PT sessions were observed in adults undergoing emergency abdominal surgery that received early PT versus late PT. This suggests that early PT in this context would optimize health care resources, improving the postoperative process in these patients (AU)

RESUMO

Introducción. La evaluación del riesgo es fundamental en el éxito quirúrgico. Las perspectivas de los actores involucrados en el proceso de atención deben alinearse con el fin de planear, comunicar y ejecutar adecuadamente las intervenciones necesarias. El objetivo de este escrito fue analizar el riesgo quirúrgico, considerando los posibles factores relacionados con su estimación, comunicación y comprensión en la práctica clínica. Métodos. Análisis crítico y reflexivo de la información disponible, contrastado con la práctica usual. Se hace un ejercicio con situaciones clínicas habituales. Resultados. La complejidad de los pacientes, los recursos, el contexto y la naturaleza de las intervenciones, demandan una aproximación del riesgo implícito de una cirugía con instrumentos evaluativos confiables y reproducibles. Las percepciones por los médicos, pacientes y administradores en salud acerca del impacto de una cirugía difieren según sus intereses. La transmisión de los resultados es un reto ante la asimetría en el conocimiento, la complejidad de los procedimientos y la incertidumbre en los resultados. La comunicación efectiva, como una competencia, se hace altamente pertinente en la actividad del médico. Facilitar la comprensión del mensaje exige una práctica continua y un proceso de mejoramiento adaptado al contexto de la atención en salud. Conclusiones. El riesgo quirúrgico exige una metodología clara y fiable en su evaluación, comunicación y comprensión entre los actores del sistema de salud. Su presencia está asociada a la actividad profesional de los médicos y requiere competencias que permitan un abordaje no lineal del tema. Es una actividad profesional con el fin de mejorar los desenlaces en salud y la calidad de las intervenciones


Introduction. Evaluation of surgical risk is fundamental in surgical success. The perspectives of the actors involved in the care process must be aligned to adequately plan, communicate, and execute the necessary interventions. The aim of this article is to analyze surgical risk, considering possible factors related to its estimation, communication and understanding in clinical practice. Methods. Critical and reflective analysis of the available information, contrasted with the usual practice. An exercise is done with usual clinical situations. Discussion. Complexity of the patients, resources, context, and nature of the interventions demand an approximation of the implicit risk of surgery with reliable and reproducible evaluation instruments. Perceptions by physicians, patients, and health administrators about the impact of surgery differ according to their interests. The transmission of results is a challenge in the face of asymmetry in knowledge, complexity of procedures and uncertainty in results. Effective communication as a competence becomes highly relevant in the physician's activity. Facilitating the understanding of the message requires continuous practice and an improvement process adapted to the context of health care. Conclusions. Surgical risk requires a clear and reliable methodology in its evaluation, communication and understanding among the actors of the health system. Their presence is associated with the professional activity of doctors and requires skills that allow a non-linear approach to the subject.

RESUMO

In surgery, the construction of knowledge is shaped in two scenarios: evidence-based medicine, and experiential learning. The former has become an essential pillar in this process. Based on this fact, clinical practice guidelines have been developed. However, their transient nature, constant renewal, and lack of individualization distance them from daily clinical activity. On the other hand, there is the construction of knowledge through vicarious and experiential learning. Its existence is linked to the beginning of medicine, and its importance is irrefutable. However, it is laden with the "truth effect", surgical dogma and singularism. When integrating the construction of knowledge in these scenarios, critical thinking skills are paramount and necessary to guide the surgeon in the decision-making process within the context of surgical dynamism. This article explores this situation and its impact.

RESUMO

Introducción: Las hernias de la pared abdominal afectan entre el 10% al 15% de la población mundial, siendo hasta el 60% de estas hernias inguinales. Las hernias inguinales gigantes son poco comunes, pero con una gran carga de enfermedad para el paciente. Caso Clínico: Se presenta el caso de un paciente de 51 años, con antecedente de diabetes mellitus tipo II, proveniente de zona rural aislada, por cuatro días de evolución consistente en quemadura escrotal por metal caliente, relacionada a una hernia inguinoescrotal derecha gigante. Es llevado a intervención quirúrgica por cirugía general y urología. Por adecuada evolución clínica se da de alta al 5° día posoperatorio. Discusión: Las hernias inguinales gigantes son raras y frecuentemente se presentan en pacientes de bajo estrato socioeconómico, procedencia rural y cierto grado de negligencia. El reto del equipo quirúrgico consiste en lidiar con los posibles efectos adversos de la reducción del contenido herniario en un abdomen con diversos grados de pérdida del dominio. Se puede requerir resección o debulking del contenido abdominal o la expansión de la cavidad abdominal mediante frenectomía, neumoperitoneo progresivo perioperatorio o la creación de hernias ventrales mediante maniobras avanzadas. La reparación con malla libre de tensión disminuye el riesgo de recurrencia. Conclusión: La hernia inguinal gigante es una patología rara. El cirujano general está llamado a conocer el abanico de opciones que existen en caso de enfrentarse a estos pacientes, lo cual ayuda a reducir la elevada morbimortalidad y altas tasas de recurrencia.


Introduction: Abdominal wall hernias affect between 10% to 15% of the world population and up to 60% of these are inguinal hernias. Giant inguinal hernias are rare, but have high burden of disease for the patients. Clinical Case: We present the case of a 51-year-old patient, with a history of type II diabetes mellitus, from an isolated rural area, with four days of a scrotal burn by hot metal, related to a giant right inguinoscrotal hernia. He is taken to surgical intervention by general surgery and urology. Due to adequate clinical evolution, he was discharged on the 5th postoperative day. Discussion: Giant inguinal hernias are rare and frequently occur in patients of low socioeconomic status, rural origin and a certain degree of neglect. The challenge for the surgical team consist in dealing with the potential adverse effects of reducing hernia contents in an abdomen with varying degrees of loss of normal capacity. Resection or debulking of the abdominal contents or expansion of the abdominal cavity by frenectomy, perioperative progressive pneumoperitoneum, or the creation of ventral hernias by advanced maneuvers may be required. Tension-free mesh repair decreases the risk of recurrence. Conclusion: Giant inguinal hernia is a rare pathology. The general surgeon is called to know the range of options that exist in the event of facing these patients, which helps to reduce the high morbidity and mortality and high rates of recurrence.

RESUMO

Objetivo Identificar la frecuencia de errores en los documentos de consentimiento informado en cirugía radioguiada en un hospital de tercer nivel y detectar posibles causas o factores asociados a un mayor riesgo de error. Material y método Se analizaron los consentimientos informados de un total de 369 intervenciones de cirugía radioguiada, cumplimentados por los servicios de Medicina Nuclear y Cirugía General, y se analizó el grado de cumplimentación de los mismos y su correlación con facultativos responsables, tipo de enfermedad e intervención, tiempo de espera y cumplimentación del consentimiento de la otra especialidad. Resultados Se identificaron errores en 22 consentimientos de Medicina Nuclear y 71 consentimientos de Cirugía General. El error más común fue la ausencia de identificación del facultativo responsable (17 en Medicina Nuclear, 51 en Cirugía General), y el segundo más común la ausencia de documento (2 en Medicina Nuclear, 20 en Cirugía General). Existieron diferencias significativas en los errores cometidos en función del médico responsable, sin encontrarse correlación significativa con el resto de las variables. Conclusiones Los médicos responsables fueron el principal factor asociado a un mayor riesgo de error en la cumplimentación de consentimientos informados. Serían recomendables nuevos estudios para analizar factores casuales y posibles intervenciones para minimizar errores (AU)


Objective To identify the frequency of errors in the informed consent documents in radioguided surgery in a third level hospital and to detect possible causes or factors associated with a greater risk of error. Material and method The informed consents of a total of 369 radioguided surgery interventions, completed by the Nuclear Medicine and General Surgery services, were analyzed, as well as their degree of completion and its correlation with responsible physicians, type of pathology and intervention, waiting time and completion of the consent of the other specialty. Results Errors were identified in 22 consent forms for Nuclear Medicine and 71 consent forms for General Surgery. The most common error was the absence of identification of the responsible physician (17 in Nuclear Medicine, 51 in General Surgery), and the second most common was the absence of a document (2 in Nuclear Medicine, 20 in General Surgery). There were significant differences in the errors made depending on the doctor in charge, without finding a significant correlation with the other variables. Conclusions The responsible physicians were the main factor associated with a greater risk of error in the completion of informed consent. New studies would be recommended to analyze causal factors and possible interventions to minimize errors (AU)

RESUMO

En cirugía la construcción de conocimiento está moldeada en 2escenarios: la medicina basada en la evidencia y el aprendizaje experiencial. La primera se ha constituido como un pilar esencial en este proceso. A partir de ella se han desarrollado las guías de práctica clínica. Sin embargo, su temporalidad, su constante renovación y la falta de individualización las distancian del actuar diario. Por otro lado está la construcción de conocimiento mediante el aprendizaje vicario y experiencial. Su existencia va ligada al inicio de la medicina y su importancia es irrefutable. No obstante, va cargada del «efecto verdad», del dogma quirúrgico y del singularismo. El desarrollo de un sentido crítico frente a la integración de la constricción del conocimiento en estos escenarios es primordial y necesario para guiar al cirujano en la toma de decisiones en el dinamismo quirúrgico. El presente artículo explora esta situación y su impacto. (AU)

RESUMO

Introducción: la apnea obstructiva del sueño (AOS) conlleva un alto riesgo cardiovascular, metabólico y neurológico. Los dispositivos de presión positiva continua (CPAP) o dispositivos de avance mandibular (DAM) pueden ferulizar la vía aérea superior (VAS) y mejorar la obstrucción; sin embargo, la adherencia es muy baja. Se ha demostrado que los procedimientos quirúrgicos de la VAS pueden llevar a una reducción significativa en la frecuencia de apneas e hipopneas. El objetivo del estudio fue describir las características clínicas y demográficas y los cambios en la somnolencia diurna excesiva, en el índice de apnea e hipopnea (IAH) y en la saturación de oxígeno (SpO2 ) de los pacientes con AOS manejados quirúrgicamente en el Servicio de Otorrinolaringología entre los años 2016 a 2020. Materiales y métodos: Se realizó un estudio observacional descriptivo tipo serie de casos. Resultados: se incluyeron nueve pacientes que cumplían los criterios de inclusión, el 77,8 % presentaban sobrepeso u obesidad. Se disminuyó la puntuación de la Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS) en el 100 % de los pacientes pre y posquirúrgicos. Adicionalmente, la polisomnografía (PSG) pre y posoperatoria mostró un aumento en la eficiencia de sueño con la mejoría de parámetros de oxigenación. Se encontró una disminución en el IAH en el 88,8 % de los pacientes. Conclusión: los hallazgos en este estudio sugieren que la cirugía de VAS es segura para realizar en pacientes con AOS. No todos los pacientes son candidatos a manejo quirúrgico y es importante una selección adecuada para disminuir las complicaciones.


Introduction: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a pathology that leads to a high risk of developing cardiovascular, metabolic, and neurological diseases. Positive airway pressure (CPAP) or mandibular advancement devices (MAD) can open superior airway (SAW) improve the obstruction, however, adherence is too low. It has already been shown that surgical SAW procedures, compared with medical management, can lead to a significant reduction in the frequency of apneas and hypopneas. The aim of this study was to describe the clinical and demographic characteristics, changes in excessive daytime sleepiness using Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS), apnea-hipopnea index (AHI) and SpO2 in patients with OSA managed surgically. Methods: A descriptive observational case series type study was carried out. Results: Nine patients were included, 77.8% were overweight or obese. A decrease in the ESS was found in 100% of the patients when pre- and post-operative scores were compared. Additionally, pre and postoperative polysomnography (PSG) showed an increase in sleep efficiency with improvement in oxygenation parameters such as mean saturation and minimum saturation. Regarding respiratory events, we found a decrease in AHI in 88.8% of patients. Conclusion: The findings in this study suggest that SAW surgery is safe to perform in patients with OSA. However, it is necessary to keep in mind that not all patients are candidates for surgical management and that adequate patient selection is important to reduce procedural complications.
