ABSTRACT

La intervención breve en salud es una estrategia terapéutica, sugerida para abordar cambios conductuales asociados a factores de riesgo de enfermedades crónicas no transmisibles. Existe amplia evidencia sobre su efectividad. Sin embargo, esta evidencia se sustenta en distintas definiciones de intervención breve, lo que dificulta su aplicación clínica. Este artículo de revisión de literatura, se propuso realizar una búsqueda de revisiones sistemáticas en la base de datos Epistemonikos con el fin de identificar factores comunes en su definición y resumir algunas estrategias de intervención breve usadas con frecuencia en la atención primaria de salud. Asimismo, se busca describir su efectividad en este contexto clínico, para tres factores de riesgo: tabaco, alcohol y actividad física.


The brief intervention is a therapeutic strategy suggested to address behavioral changes associated with risk factors for chronic non-communicable diseases and there is ample evidence of its effectiveness. However, this evidence is sustained by various definitions of "brief intervention", a fact that makes the clinical application of this strategy difficult. This literature review article aimed to conduct a search for systematic reviews in the Epistemonikos database in order to identify common factors in the definition of "brief intervention" and summarize some brief intervention strategies frequently used in primary health care. It also seeks to describe their effectiveness, for three risk factors: tobacco, alcohol and physical activity, within this clinical context

ABSTRACT

Ammonia (NH3) is an irritant and corrosive gas whose inhalation at high concentrations mainly occurs during agricultural and industrial activities, as occupational accidents. The extent and severity of the damage depends on the concentration and time of exposure to the toxic, which can cause skin, eye, respiratory and life-threatening injuries. We present two cases of patients acutely exposed to high concentrations of NH3. Both patients survived to the acute phase of the respiratory injury, but developed chronic lung derangements.


El amoniaco (NH3) es un gas irritante y corrosivo cuya inhalación aguda en altas concentraciones se produce principalmente durante accidentes laborales en el sector agrícola e industrial. La extensión y severidad del daño depende de la concentración y tiempo de exposición al tóxico, el cual puede causar lesiones a nivel cutáneo, ocular, respiratorio y riesgo vital. Presentamos dos casos de pacientes expuestos en forma aguda a NH3 en altas concentraciones. Ambos pacientes sobrevivieron a la fase aguda y evolucionaron con lesiones respiratorias crónicas.
