ABSTRACT

Objetivo: establecer la relación existente entre la combinación farmacológica de un inhibidor de la enzima convertidora de angiotensina (IECA) o un bloqueante del receptor de angiotensina tipo II (ARA II) más espironolactona y los niveles de potasio sérico en los pacientes adultos con insuficiencia cardiaca y tasa de filtración glomerular (TFG) mayor o igual a 60 mL/min, que acuden a la consulta de cardiología de dos centros hospitalarios de la ciudad de Manizales.Diseño: estudio de tipo prospectivo, observacional, de casos incidentes.Material y métodos: se incluyeron 30 pacientes con diagnóstico de insuficiencia cardiaca, que recibían la combinación farmacológica IECA o ARA II más espironolactona, cuya depuración de creatinina fuera mayor o igual a 60 mL/min. Se hizo seguimiento durante seis meses, evaluando cada mes electrolitos y pruebas de función renal. El análisis estadístico, para las variables cualitativas, se realizó con la prueba de Chi cuadrado; para las variables cuantitativas se utilizó la prueba de t de Student. Se utilizó el programa EpiInfo Versión 6.04 d y Epidata 3.1...


Objective: to establish the relationship between the pharmacologic combination of an angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor or an angiotensin receptor blocking agent Type II(ARA II) plus spironolactone and the serum potassium levels in adult patients with heart failure, and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) higher or equal to 60 mL/min, who go for consultation in the cardiology unit of hospital centers in the city of Manizales. Design: prospective, observational study of incident cases. Material and methods: 30 patients with diagnosis of heart failure were included. They weregiven the pharmacologic combination of ACE inhibitors or ARA II plus spironolactone, with a creatinine clearance of more or equal to 60 mL/min. They were followed for 6 months, monthly assessments of the electrolytes as well as renal function. The statistical analysis for the quantitative variables was carried out with the Chi square test; for the quantitative variables the Student t wasused. The EpiInfo program Version 6.04 and Epidate 3.1 were used.Results: 368 patients with diagnosis of heart failure were found, 126 of them lived in Manizalez, of which 54 had creatinine clearance...
