ABSTRACT
El uso indiscriminado de antibióticos y el mal manejo de los mismos por parte del personal médico es un problema frecuente a nivel mundial, esto ha incrementado la resistencia bacteriana, los costos del tratamiento y ha creado la necesidad de contar con nuevos antibióticos, frecuentemente más costosos y de mayor toxicidad.Objetivo : evaluar el uso de antibióticos profilácticos en pacientes sometidos a cirugías electivas limpias, en centros privados del estado Aragua, en el periodo comprendido entre febrero y agosto del año 2019.Métodos : estudio prospectivo, observacional, comparativo, longitudinal. La muestra fue no probabilística intencional, se dividió en 2 grupos: grupo A, a quienes se les administró antibioticoterapia profiláctica, y un grupo B, a quienes no se les administró antibiótico.Resultados : Se incluyeron 49 pacientes sometidos a cirugías electivas limpias de tipo colecistectomías (14/28.57%), herniorrafía umbilical (6/12.24%) y hernioplastia inguinal (29/59.18%). La edad promedio fue de 37,7±12,17 años. Predomino el sexo masculino. Al quinto día del postoperatorio no se observaron signos de complicación infecciosa en los grupos A y B. Al décimo día de postoperatorio se observaron signos de complicación infecciosa en un paciente (4.3%) perteneciente al grupo A. No se observó complicación infecciosa en el grupo sin administración de antibiótico, grupo B.Conclusión : La indicación y mantenimiento por 7-10 días de antibiótico profiláctico en cirugía limpia no presenta diferencia en la presentación de complicaciones infecciosas comparado con la no administración de antibióticos para este tipo de cirugía, con el riesgo potencial de producción de efectos adversos y desarrollo de resistencia bacteriana(AU)
The indiscriminate use of antibiotics and their mishandling by medical personnel is a frequent problem worldwide, which has increased bacterial resistance, treatment costs and the need for new antibiotics, often more expensive and of greater toxicity.Objective : to evaluate the use of prophylactic antibiotics in patients undergoing clean elective surgeries, in private centers in the Aragua state, in the period between February and August of 2019.Methods : we conducted a prospective, longitudinal, observational, analytical epidemiological clinical study. The participants consisted of non-probabilistic sample of the intentional type of 49 patients of the total study population, undergoing elective surgery, cholecystectomy (14 / 28.57%), umbilical herniorrhaphy (6 / 12.24%) and inguinal hernioplasty (29 /59.18%). The sample was classified into 2 groups, a group A, who received prophylactic antibiotic therapy and a group B, who did not receive it.Results : the mean age was 37.7 ± 12.17 years, predominantly male. On the fifth day of the postoperative period, no signs of infectious complication were observed neither in group A nor in group B. On the tenth day after the postoperative period, signs of infectious complication were observed in one patient (4.3%) belonging to the antibiotic administration group. No infectious complication was observed in the group without antibiotic administration.Conclusion : it was confirmed that the administration of antibiotics does not reduce the incidence of infection, when comparing an experimental group with a control group(AU)

Objective: To compare the short-term effectiveness between arthroscopic cystectomy and internal drainage combined with cystectomy in popliteal cyst. Methods: Between March 2014 and March 2017, 56 patients with symptomatic popliteal cyst were enrolled in the study, randomized block design was used to divided the patients into trial group (arthroscopic cystectomy combined with internal drainage group, n=28) and control group (arthroscopic internal drainage group, n=28). Excluding those who had incomplete follow-up and received surgery for other diseases postoperatively, 26 patients in the experimental group and 27 patients in the control group were finally enrolled in the study. There was no significant difference in gender, age, side, course of disease, maximum diameter and grade of popliteal cyst, and associated diseases between two groups ( P>0.05). The operation time, duration of popliteal ecchymosis and the middle back of calf tenderness were observed postoperatively. The circumference of calf at 1 day, 1 week, and 2 weeks after operation were measured and the differences were calculated with the measurement before operation. Lower extremity venous thrombosis was observed by color doppler ultrasonography at 1 week after operation. The effectiveness was evaluated by Rauschning and Lindgren grading criteria. And MRI was used to observe whether the popliteal cyst disappeared or decreased and measured its maximum diameter at 1 year after operation. Results: Patients in both groups were followed up 12-14 months, with an average of 12.5 months. The operation time, duration of popliteal ecchymosis, and the middle back of calf tenderness of the trial group were all longer than those in the control group ( P<0.05), the differences of circumference of calf at 1 day, 1 week, and 2 weeks after operation of the trial group were greater than those in the control group ( P<0.05). Color doppler ultrasonography of the lower extremity at 1 week after operation found that the intermuscular venous thrombosis occurred in 2 cases of the trial group, while no lower extremity thrombosis was found in the control group; and the difference between two groups was not significant ( P=0.236). According to the Rauschning and Lindgren grading criteria, there were 16 cases of grade 0, 6 cases of grade 1, and 4 cases of grade 2 in the trial group, and 17 cases of grade 0, 4 cases of grade 1, and 6 cases of grade 2 in the control group at 1 year after operation. There was no significant difference between 2 groups ( Z=-1.872, P=0.078). Nine cases (34.62%) of the trial group and 13 cases (48.15%) of the control group still have residual cysts by MRI, the maximum diameter of which was less than 2 cm. The cysts disappeared in the remaining patients in both groups, and there was no recurrence during the follow-up. There was no significant difference in cyst residual rate between 2 groups ( χ2=2.293, P=0.852). Conclusion: Compared with arthroscopic internal drainage, the short-term effectiveness of the arthroscopic internal drainage combined with cystectomy had no significant improvement, and the operation time was prolonged, the postoperative complications were obviously increased.
