ABSTRACT

Introducción: Las lesiones iatrogénicas de las vías biliares representan una complicación quirúrgica grave de la colecistectomía. Objetivo: Determinar la morbilidad de las lesiones de la vía biliar en el servicio de cirugía del Hospital Universitario "Manuel Ascunce Domenech". Métodos: Se realizó un estudio descriptivo, prospectivo y observacional de pacientes que ingresaron en el servicio de cirugía del Hospital Universitario "Manuel Ascunce Domenech" con diagnóstico de lesión de la vía biliar, desde septiembre del 2018 hasta enero del 2022. El universo estuvo conformado por 12 pacientes que cumplieron con los criterios de inclusión. Se utilizaron métodos estadísticos descriptivos y cálculos con valores porcentuales. Resultados: La mayor incidencia de los pacientes fue del sexo femenino y de piel blanca, con un 61,4 por ciento y 85,7 por ciento, respectivamente. Predom inó el tipo de cirugía convencional y diagnóstico intraoperatorio con un 66,7 por ciento y 50 por ciento, respectivamente. El tipo E1 y E2 de la clasificación de Strasberg y la hepaticoyeyunostomía fue la operación con mayor frecuencia con un 66,7 por ciento. La bilirragia fue la complicación que predominó con el 70 por ciento. Conclusiones: La mayoría de los pacientes son del sexo femenino y de piel blanca, donde la cirugía convencional y el diagnóstico intraoperatorio son los hallazgos más frecuentes. Más de la mitad de los pacientes son clasificados como tipo E1 y tipo E2 según clasificación de Strasberg. La hepaticoyeyunostomía en Y de Roux y en asa de Braum transmesocólica es el proceder realizado en casi la totalidad de los pacientes. La fuga biliar es la complicación más frecuente(AU(

ABSTRACT

La iatrogenia es el daño ocasionado por el profesional de la salud a pacientes, familias u otras personas, de manera no intencional, que puede provocar desde un ligero malestar emocional hasta la propia muerte. Teniendo en cuenta lo anterior se realizó una revisión bibliográfica exhaustiva sobre el tema que recoge aspectos actualizados, a saber: concepto, diferencias entre esta y la mala praxis médica, modalidades de iatrogenia (principalmente la de orden psicológico) y recomendaciones para evitarla, con el objetivo de contribuir a un mejor desempeño de los profesionales de la salud y elevar la calidad de vida de la población.


Iatrogenesis is the damage caused by the health professional to patients, families or other people, in non intentional way, that can cause either a slight emotional distress or death. Keeping this in mind an exhaustive literature review on the topic was carried out that compiles up-to-date aspects: concept, differences between this and the bad medical practice, iatrogenesis modalities (mainly the psychological type) and recommendations to avoid it, aimed at contributing to a better performance of health professionals and elevating the population life quality.

ABSTRACT

Resumo O artigo analisa como o periódico Jornal do Médico, editado na cidade do Porto, em Portugal, divulgou o desastre da talidomida. A pesquisa percorreu as páginas da fonte desde o início de 1960 até o final de 1962. Aqui, objetivam-se apontar e discutir duas questões interligadas: a morosidade em publicar matérias sobre os efeitos deletérios do medicamento, vendido no país sob a denominação Softenon®, e a construção discursiva da isenção da responsabilidade do médico no fenômeno da iatrogenia medicamentosa.


Abstract This article analyzes the way the Porto-based journal Jornal do Médico reported on the thalidomide disaster. The pages of the publication are researched from the beginning of 1960 to the end of 1962 with the aim of identifying and discussing two interconnected questions: the delay in publishing news on the harmful effects of the drug, which was sold in the country under the brand name Softenon®, and the discursive construction of a lack of accountability on the part of physicians for the phenomenon of medication iatrogenesis.

ABSTRACT

Abstract The extensive use of central venous catheters (CVC) in a hospital environment leads to increased iatrogenic complications, as more catheters are used enclosed and its maintenance is prolonged. Several complications are known to be related to central venous catheter, of which the uncommon cardiac tamponade (CT), hardly recognized and associated with high mortality. We present a clinical case, with favorable outcome, of a patient who developed a CT 17 days after CVC placement, and try to reflect on the measures that can be taken to reduce its incidence, as well as the therapeutic approaches to practice in the presence of a suspected CT.


Resumo O vasto uso dos cateteres venosos centrais (CVC) em meio hospitalar incita a um aumento da iatrogenia, uma vez que são colocados mais cateteres e a sua manutenção é mais prolongada. São conhecidas as complicações relacionadas com a cateterização venosa central, uma das quais o tamponamento cardíaco (TC), raro, dificilmente reconhecido e associado a grande mortalidade. Os autores apresentam um caso clínico, com desfecho favorável, de uma doente que desenvolveu um TC 17 dias após a colocação de um CVC e procuram refletir sobre as medidas que podem ser adotadas para reduzir a sua incidência, bem como as atitudes terapêuticas na suspeita de TC.

ABSTRACT

Iatrogenic meningitis can be caused by a number of mechanisms. The recent case reports of fungal meningitis after application of epidural methylprednisolone caused warning in the medical community. Cases were caused by contaminated lots of methylprednisolone from a single compounding pharmacy. Several medications can cause meninigitis by probable hypersensitivity mechanism. Neurologists should be alert to the recent description of the use of lamotrigine and development of aseptic meningitis.


As meningites iatrogênicas podem ser provocadas por uma série de mecanismos. Os recentes relatos de casos de meningite por fungos após a aplicação de injeção epidural de metilprednisolona causou alerta na comunidade médica. Os casos foram causados por lotes contaminados de metilprednisolona produzidos por uma única farmácia de produção. Diversos medicamentos podem causar meningite por provável mecanismo de hipersensibilidade. Neurologistas devem ficar alerta para a recente descrição do uso de lamotrigina e o desenvolvimento de meningite asséptica.

ABSTRACT

La dietoterapia es la rama de la terapéutica médica en la que los alimentos y sus nutrientes se emplean con fines curativos en personas que padecen alguna enfermedad. Con esta revisión bibliográfica del tema se presentan algunas de las causas de iatrogenia debido a dietas inadecuadas indicadas en los hospitales, las cuales afectan la recuperación del paciente. Entre los principales aspectos que determinan dicho efecto adverso producido por esta terapia, se destacan la no uniformidad en las indicaciones de las dietas médicas en las salas de hospitalización y la falta de conocimientos actualizados en algunos profesionales de la atención secundaria de salud, quienes orientan un régimen de alimentación desacorde con las necesidades del afectado.


The diet therapy is the branch of the medical therapy in which foods and their nutrients are used with healing purposes in persons suffering from certain disease. With this literature review on the topic, some of the iatrogenesis causes are presented due to inadequate diets indicated in hospitals, which affect the patient's recovery. Among the main aspects that determine this adverse effect caused by this therapy, there are the nonuniformity in the indications of the medical diets in the hospital rooms and the lack of updated knowledge in some professionals of the secondary health care who guide a diet which desagrees with the needs of the affected patient.

ABSTRACT

Although elderly populations are more exposed to the risk of getting dengue, the clinical peculiarities of this disease in this age range are not well known. This report is about an 80-year-old woman with dengue complications, self-medicated with salicylate. Literature indicates a more severe clinical condition, high hospitalization rate and significant mortality. This is caused by previous infections by other serotypes of this arbovirus, presence of chronic diseases, immunosenescence and high drug consumption, especially salicylates and the like. Analyses are required in a public health perspective in order to help health professionals that care for patients with dengue in this age range.


Embora cada vez mais populações idosas estejam expostas ao risco de contrair dengue, pouco se sabe sobre peculiaridades clínicas desta doença nesta faixa etária, fato este que motivou este relato sobre octogenária com dengue agravada por automedicação de salicilato. A literatura consultada aponta para quadro clínico mais grave, elevado índice de hospitalizações e mortalidade significativa. Deve-se isto a infecções prévias com outros sorotipos desta arbovirose, presença de doenças crônico degenerativas, imunosenescência e alto consumo de medicamentos, particularmente salicilatos e similares. Análises, sob a ótica da saúde pública, são necessárias para auxiliar aos profissionais de saúde que assistem pacientes com dengue nesta faixa etária
