ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT The present study aimed to analyze the stroke units in two centers for the key performance indicators (KPIs) required by the Ministry of Health in Brazil. Methods All 16 KPIs were analyzed, including the percentage of patients admitted to the stroke unit, venous thromboembolism prophylaxis in the first 48 hours after admission, pneumonia and hospital mortality due to stroke, and hospital discharge on antithrombotic therapy in patients without cardioembolic mechanism. Results Both centers admitted over 80% of the patients in their stroke unit. The incidence of venous thromboembolism prophylaxis was > 85%, that of in-hospital pneumonia was < 13%, the hospital mortality for stroke was < 15%, and the hospital discharge on antithrombotic therapy was > 70%. Conclusion Our results suggest using the parameters of all of the 16 KPIs required by the Ministry of Health of Brazil, and the present results for the two stroke units for future benchmarking.


RESUMO O objetivo do presente estudo é analisar os indicadores de qualidade (IQ) exigidos pelo Ministério da Saúde no Brasil em duas unidades de AVC. Métodos Foram analisados os 16 IQ, incluindo a percentagem de pacientes internados na unidade de AVC, profilaxia de tromboembolismo venoso (TEV) nas primeiras 48 horas após a admissão; pneumonia e mortalidade hospitalar e alta hospitalar em terapia antitrombótica (TAT) em pacientes sem mecanismo cardioembólico. Resultados Ambos os centros admitiram mais de 80% dos pacientes na unidade de AVC. A profilaxia do TEV foi realizada em mais de 85% dos casos; a pneumonia hospitalar foi inferior a 13%; a mortalidade hospitalar foi menor que 15% e a alta hospitalar em uso de TAT foi acima de 70%. Conclusão O presente estudo sugere os parâmetros dos 16 IQ exigidos pelo Ministério da Saúde do Brasil e os resultados obtidos em duas unidades de AVC para avaliação comparativa futura

ABSTRACT

The impact of the side in middle cerebral artery (MCA) ischemic stroke is not well established. Our aim was to analyze the differences between right (RMCA) and left middle cerebral artery (LMCA) stroke in patients submitted to intravenous thrombolysis and the influence of the affected side in the patient’s mortality after 3 months. Method Patients with MCA ischemic stroke submitted to intravenous thrombolysis from March 2010 to December 2011 at two Brazilian Stroke Centers were included. Differences between patients with RMCA and LMCA stroke were identified by univariate analysis. Results Forty-five patients with RMCA stroke and 67 with LMCA stroke were analyzed. Patients with LMCA had a higher incidence of atrial fibrillation (p = 0.031), although patients with RMCA more often had a previous ischemic stroke (p = 0.034). The mortality over 3 months was similar for either side (OR = 1.20 ;0.37 - 4.29, p = 0.772). Conclusion The side of the MCA ischemic stroke did not influence the patients mortality. .


O impacto do lado de acometimento da artéria cerebral média (ACM) não é bem estabelecido. Nosso objetivo é analisar as diferenças entre pacientes com acidente vascular isquêmico (AVCi) de ACM direita (ACMD) e esquerda (ACME) submetidos à trombólise endovenosa e a influência do lado acometido na mortalidade em 3 meses. Método Pacientes com AVCi ACMD e ACME submetidos à trombólise endovenosa entre Março de 2010 a Dezembro de 2012 em duas Unidades de AVC brasileiras foram incluídos. Diferenças entre AVCi ACMD e ACME foram identificadas pela análise univariada. Resultados Quarenta e cinco pacientes com AVCi de ACMD e 67 de ACME foram analisados. Pacientes com AVCi de ACME tiveram maior incidência de fibrilação atrial (p = 0,031), enquanto de ACMD maior de AVCi prévio (p = 0,034). A mortalidade em 3 meses foi similar em ambos os grupos (OR = 1,20; 0,37 -4,29, p = 0,772). Conclusão O lado de acometimento da ACM no AVCi não influencia na mortalidade. .
