RESUMEN

Objetivo:

Estimar la incidencia de potenciales reacciones adversasintrahospitalarias con el uso de prescripciones alertantes en un hospitalgeneral del sur de Brasil.

Método:

Estudio transversal, realizado en un hospital del sur de Brasil.Se evaluaron las historias clínicas electrónicas (TASY®) de los pacienteshospitalizados entre enero y agosto de 2020, a los que se les prescribióuno de los medicamentos destinados al seguimiento de reacciones adversasa medicamentos los medicamentos incluían flumazenil, clorhidratode fexofenadina, naloxona, prometazina, difenhidramina y loperamida.

Resultados:

Se revisaron 13.476 historias clínicas y se incluyeron 204 (1,5%)en el estudio en el que se indicó el uso de prescripciones alertantes en elmanejo de reacciones adversas a medicamentos. En este estudio se encontró untotal de 18 signos o síntomas diferentes en las historias clínicas, siendo el prurito,la hiperemia y la urticaria los síntomas más reportados (n = 76). Entre las clasesde fármacos que causaron la mayoría de las reacciones adversas a medicamentos,los opioides fueron los más mencionados (n = 44). Cabe señalar queen 49 historias clínicas no se reportó la información sobre qué fármaco causólos eventos adversos. En cuanto a la causa de hospitalización de los pacientesque utilizaron prescripciones alertantes, el cáncer fue la más frecuente (n = 37).

Conclusiones:

Este estudio indica que el uso de alertadores puede seruna herramienta para estimar la incidencia de reacciones adversas a medicamentosy establecer eventos adversos relacionados con el uso demedicamentos, los cuales deben ser reportados al servicio de farmacovigilancia,con miras a la seguridad del paciente.
ABSTRACT

Objective:

To estimate the incidence of potential in-hospital adversereactions with the use of alert drugs in a general hospital in southernBrazil.

Method:

Cross-sectional study, carried out in a hospital in southernBrazil. The electronic medical records (TASY®) of patients hospitalizedbetween January and August 2020, who were prescribed one of thedrugs earmarked for tracking adverse drug reactions, were evaluatedthe drugs included flumazenil, fexofenadine hydrochloride, naloxone, promethazine,diphenhydramine and loperamide.

Results:

A total of 13,476 medical records were reviewed and 204(1.5%) were included in the study in which tracker use was indicated in themanagement of adverse drug reactions. In this study a total of 18 differentsigns or symptoms were found in medical records, with pruritus/hyperemia/urticaria being the most reported symptoms (n = 76). Among the drugclasses that caused most adverse drug reactions, opioids were the mostmentioned (n = 44). It should be noted that in 49 medical records theinformation on which drug caused the adverse events was not reported.Regarding the cause of hospitalization of patients who used screeningdrugs, cancer was the most frequent (n = 37).

Conclusions:

This study indicates that the use of trackers can be a toolto estimate the occurrence of adverse drug reactions and to establishadverse events related to the use of medications, which should be reportedto the pharmacovigilance service, with a view to patient safety.
