RESUMEN
Objetivos. Evaluamos la prevalencia de los factores de riesgo cardiovascular (FRCV) clásicos en pacientescon isquemia crónica de extremidades inferiores (IC-EEII) a su llegada a una Unidad de CirugíaVascular. Analizamos su control y tratamiento basal y tras los primeros años de seguimiento.Material y métodos. Estudio retrospectivo. Incluimos pacientes con diagnóstico inicial de IC-EEIIen 2005-2006. Registramos: FRCV y su tratamiento, parámetros analíticos, y eventos cardiovascularesy tratamiento de los FRCV tras 3-4 años de seguimiento. Análisis estadístico: t deStudent, Chi cuadrado, prueba de McNemar.Resultados. La prevalencia de tabaquismo activo, hipertensión arterial, diabetes mellitus ydislipidemia referida por los pacientes era de 45 % (n = 91), 59,4 % (n = 120), 35,6 % (n = 72) y35,6 % (n = 72), respectivamente. Diagnosticamos tres hipertensiones, una diabetes y 72 hipercolesterolemiasadicionales en nuestro estudio basal. Registramos un mal control glucémico(HbA1c ≥ 7 %) en el 60 % de los diabéticos. Inicialmente sólo el 42,6 % (n = 86) de los pacientesrecibía tratamiento antiagregante o anticoagulante, el 33,7 % (n = 68) estatinas, y el 85 %(n = 102) de los hipertensos, fármacos hipotensores. Tras 28,6 ± 11,9 (1-50,3) meses, se consiguereducir el tabaquismo activo a un 30,8 % (n = 62) (p < 0,0001) y aumentar la antiagregacióno anticoagulación hasta el 96 % (n = 194) (p < 0,0001), las estatinas al 60,9 % (n = 123) (p < 0,0001)y los hipotensores al 100 % (n = 123) (p < 0,0001). Durante este tiempo, 19 (9,4 %) pacientes hansufrido eventos coronarios y 13 (6,4 %), cerebrovasculares(AU)
ABSTRACT
Objectives. We assess the prevalence of classic cardiovascular risk factors (CVRF) in patientswith chronic lower limb ischaemia (CLLI) on their admission to a Vascular Surgery Unit. Weanalyse their control and treatment at baseline and after the fi rst years of follow up.Material and methods. A retrospective study, including patients with an initial diagnosis of CLLIin 2005-2006. We recorded: CVRF and their treatment, analytical parameters, and cardiovascularevents and treatment after 3-4 years of follow up. Statistical analysis performed were, Studentt, Chi-squared and McNemar tests.Results. The prevalence of active smoking, arterial hypertension, diabetes mellitus and dyslipaemiareferred to by the patients was 45 % (n = 91), 59.4 % (n = 120), 35.6 % (n = 72) and 35.6 % (n = 72)respectively. We diagnosed an additional, three hypertensions, one diabetes and72 hypercholesterolaemias in our baseline study. There was poor blood glucose control (HbA1c ≥ 7 %)in 60 % of the diabetics. Initially only 42.6 % of patients received antiplatelet or anticoagulanttreatment, 33.7 % (n = 68) statins, and 85 % (n = 102) of hypertensive patients received hypotensivedrugs. After 28.6 ± 11.9 (1-50.3) months, there was a reduction in active smoking to 30.8 % (n = 62)(p < 0.0001), and an increase in antiplatelet or anticoagulant to 96 % (n = 194) (p < 0.0001), statinsto 60,9 % (n = 123) (p < 0.0001) and hypotensives 100 % (n = 123) (p < 0.0001). During this time, 19(9.4 %) had suffered coronary and 13 (6,4 %) cerebrovascular events.Conclusions. The prevalence of CVRF in patients with CLLI is high, often under-diagnosed, andtheir baseline treatment is defi cient. We achieved satisfactory management, although notoptimal, of CVRF in the fi rst years of follow up, basically due to role of the vascular surgeon inthe treatment and secondary prophylaxis of these patients(AU)
