ABSTRACT
Introducción: El conocimiento obtenido a partir de las experiencias de los pacientes favorece una atención de calidad. El objetivo de este estudio cualitativo es conocer la percepción de los pacientes sobre su realimentación tras una cirugía colorrectal, y los factores condicionantes en relación con dicho proceso. Material y Método: En base a la directriz de Standards for Reporting Qualitative Research, se realiza un estudio cualitativo a partir de una entrevista de 8 preguntas de término abierto realizada a 20 pacientes seleccionados por un método de variación máxima de muestreo. Se realizó análisis temático. Resultados: Se identificaron cuatro dimensiones principales (con subtemas respectivos) que condicionan la alimentación en el postoperatorio: 1. propósitos del paciente tras la alimentación (búsqueda de alta, hidratación, búsqueda de salud, finalizar ayuno, deambulación); 2. propiedades y características de los alimentos (sazón, presentación, temperatura, porciones, consistencia, favoritos); 3. factores del paciente (físicos, psicológicos); y 4. relación equipo de salud-paciente (confianza, complacencia, información, agradecimiento). Conclusión: El proceso de ingesta de alimentos en este contexto está condicionado por las cuatro dimensiones mencionadas. Sería importante considerarlas al momento de crear y ejecutar pautas y guías de alimentación adaptadas a los pacientes.
Introduction: Knowledge obtained from the experiences of patients favors quality care. The aim of this study is to know the perception of patients regarding refeeding after colorectal surgery, and particular factors that condition postoperative intake from their perspective. Materials and Method: Based on the guideline of Standards for reporting qualitative Research, a qualitative study was constructed from an interview with 8 open-ended questions to 20 patients selected by a maximum sampling variation method. Thematic analysis was carried out. Results: Four main dimensions were identified that determine feeding in the postoperative period: 1. patient's goals after feeding (search for discharge, hydration, search for health, end fasting, ambulation); 2. properties and characteristics of food (seasoning, presentation, temperature, portions, consistency, favorites); 3 patient factors (physical, psychological); and 4. health team-patient relationship (trust, complacency, information, gratitude). Conclusion: The process of food intake in this context is conditioned by the four dimensions mentioned. It would be important to consider them when creating and executing feeding guidelines adapted to patients.
ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND: The treatment of Crohn's disease (CD) is based on medical therapy and surgery is reserved for failure of medical management or complications. AIM: To evaluate endoscopic, clinical, and surgical recurrence of CD after surgery. MATERIAL AND METHODS: In a prospectively maintained database, consecutive patients older than 15 years subjected to an ileocecal resection for ileocolic disease from January 2011 to April 2021, were identified. The diagnosis of CD was confirmed with the pathologic report. Patients with less than one year of follow-up were excluded. Information was obtained retrospectively from the database and clinical records. RESULTS: Fourteen patients were identified. The mean age at the time of surgery was 38 years. Surgery was performed at a median of 41.5 months (0-300) after the diagnosis of CD, nine elective and five emergency procedures. In five patients there were four major and two minor postoperative complications, with no anastomotic leakage. Six patients had endoscopic recurrence and seven had clinical recurrence (50%) at a mean of 15 months, one of whom required a second operation. There was no mortality. CONCLUSIONS: After the surgical treatment of CD, the clinical and endoscopic recurrence rate continues to be high.

Introducción: Los trabajos científicos permiten divulgar, compartir y contrastar resultados a terceros. Una de las formas de ver la actividad investigativa de cada especialidad es a través de las presentaciones que realizan en reuniones científicas. Objetivo: Describir el número de presentaciones de las distintas especialidades o áreas quirúrgicas en Chile en el principal congreso realizado a nivel nacional y evaluar si el comportamiento fue distinto durante los años de pandemia por coronavirus. Material y Método: Estudio bibliométrico del Congreso Chileno de Cirugía entre los años 2010 y 2021 evaluando el número total de presentaciones por área quirúrgica, año de presentación y período categorizado en 2010 a 2019 y 2020 a 2021. Se realiza estadística descriptiva y análisis de asociación de medias de publicaciones por área y período. Resultados: Se identificaron 4.462 presentaciones, incluyendo resúmenes orales, póster, videos y jornada de residentes. La media total fue 371,8 trabajos anuales. Coloproctología y Cirugía Gastroesofágica aportaron un total de 616 (13,8%) y 598 (13,4%) respectivamente. La media de presentaciones anuales previo a la pandemia por coronavirus fue de 414, en contraste a los 160 trabajos anuales durante ella, existiendo una disminución significativa de medias de presentaciones por área de 27,6 (± 18,8) a 10,7 (± 8,69) (p < 0,001), sin diferencias sus porcentajes de participación respecto del total (p = 0,776). Conclusión: Coloproctología y Cirugía Gastroesofágica son las áreas quirúrgicas más representadas. Si bien en el período contemporáneo a la pandemia por coronavirus significó una disminución en las presentaciones, no se observó una modificación en el porcentaje de participación de algún área en particular.
Introduction: Scientific studies allow the disclosure, sharing and comparison of results with third parties. One of the ways to see the investigative activity of each medical specialty is through the presentations they make at scientific meetings. Aim: To describe the number of presentations of the different surgical specialties or areas in Chile in the main congress held at a national level and to assess whether the behavior was different during the years of the coronavirus pandemic. Material and Method: Bibliometric study of the Chilean Congress of Surgery between 2010 and 2021, evaluating the total number of presentations by surgical area, year of presentation and two categorized periods (2010 to 2019 and 2020 to 2021). Descriptive statistics and association analysis of publication means by area and period are performed. Results: 4,462 presentations were identified, including oral summaries, posters, videos, and residents' sessions, with a mean of 371.8 per year. Coloproctology and Gastroesophageal Surgery contributed a total of 616 (13.8%) and 598 (13.4%) respectively. The mean number of annual presentations prior to the coronavirus pandemic was 414, in contrast to the 160 annual works during it, with a significant decrease in the mean number of presentations per area from 27.6 (± 18.8) to 10.7 (± 8.69) (p < 0.001), without differences in their percentages of participation with respect to the total (p = 0.776). Conclusion: Coloproctology and Gastroesophageal Surgery are the most represented surgical areas. Although the contemporary period of the coronavirus pandemic meant a decrease in presentations, no change was observed in the percentage of participation in any particular area.
