ABSTRACT

Resumen Los parámetros de calidad para endoscopia digestiva alta han introducido indicadores intraprocedimiento, dentro de los cuales la adecuada visibilidad de la mucosa, libre de saliva, moco o burbujas, puede aumentar la posibilidad de detección de lesiones en fase temprana. Sin embargo, el uso de mucolíticos y antiburbujas ha mostrado gran variabilidad de eficiencia según las soluciones, concentraciones, tiempos de exposición y escala de visibilidad aplicados. Objetivos: determinar la efectividad de diferentes soluciones de premedicación para la limpieza de la mucosa digestiva; validar, mediante una prueba de concordancia interobservador, una nueva escala de adecuada visualización de la mucosa (TVMS) para el esófago, estómago y duodeno; y reportar eventos adversos o complicaciones relacionadas con las soluciones utilizadas y los procedimientos realizados. Material y métodos: estudio de cohortes prospectivas comparativas. Se incluyeron 412 pacientes adultos, ASA I y ASA II, para endoscopia diagnóstica bajo sedación consciente, distribuidos en 6 cohortes similares, divididas en dos grupos: no premedicación, 2 cohortes C1 (ayuno de 6 a 8 horas)y C2 (agua 100 mL); premedicación, 4 cohortes C3 a C6 (C3: agua 100 m L + simeticona 1000 mg; C4: agua 100 mL + simeticona 200 mg + N-acetilcisteína 600 mg; C5: agua 100 mL + simeticona 200 mg + N-acetilcisteína 1000 mg; C6: agua 100 mL + simeticona 200 mg + Hedera helix 70 mg). Se ingirió la solución 15 a 30 minutos antes del paso por cricofaríngeo. Se realizó la prueba de Kappa para medir la concordancia interobservador de la escala TVMS. Resultados: De 412 pacientes, 58% fueron de sexo femenino; 23% (136) fue de cohortes C1 y C2 y 67% (276) fue de cohortes C3 a C6. El tiempo medio de exposición a cada solución fue de 24,4 minutos. El volumen de lavado para lograr una adecuada visualización fue significativamente diferente entre ambos grupos: en los pacientes con premedicación se utilizaron 75,6 mL, mientras que en los pacientes sin premedicación se utilizaron 124 mL (p = 0,000), con una calidad de TVMS excelente de 88,7% frente al 41,4%, respectivamente. La cohorte C4 (agua 100 mL + simeticona 200 mg + N-acetilcisteína 600 mg) mostró ser la más efectiva con una diferencia significativa (p = 0,001) frente a C1 (ayuno) y C2 (placebo con agua 100 mL), y también tuvo una eficiencia superior frente a C3, C5 y C6 en su orden. No se presentaron eventos adversos o complicaciones en relación con la endoscopia, la sedación y los productos usados en la premedicación. Conclusiones: la solución más efectiva como premedicación para lograr una excelente visibilidad de la mucosa digestiva correspondió a la cohorte C4 (SIM 200 + NAC 600 + H2O 100 mL). La escala TVMS propuesta es una herramienta muy completa y fácil de aplicar por más de un observador. La premedicación ingerida, con antiburbuja, mucolítico y agua hasta 100 mL, entre 15 y 30 minutos previos a endoscopia, es segura en las condiciones descritas en este estudio.


Abstract Quality parameters for upper gastrointestinal endoscopy have introduced intraprocedural indicators, including adequate mucosal visualization free of saliva, mucus, or bubbles, which may increase the possibility of early-stage injury detection. The use of mucolytics and anti-foaming agents has shown great efficiency variability depending on the type of solution, concentrations, exposure times and visibility scale applied. Objectives: To determine the effectiveness of different premedication solutions for cleaning the digestive mucosa; to validate, by means of an interobserver concordance test, a new scale for the adequate visualization of the mucosa (TVMS) for the esophagus, stomach, and duodenum; and to report adverse events or complications associated with the solutions used and the procedures performed. Material and methods: Prospective, comparative cohort study. 412 adult patients, ASA I and ASA II, were included for diagnostic endoscopy under conscious sedation. They were distributed in 6 similar cohorts and divided into two groups: non-premedication, 2 in C1 (fasting 6 to 8 hours) and C2 (water 100 mL) cohorts; premedication, 4 C3 to C6 cohorts (C3: water 100 mL + simethicone 1000 mg; C4: water 100 ml + simethicone 200 mg + N-acetylcysteine 600 mg; C5: water 100 ml + simethicone 200 mg + N-acetylcysteine 1000 mg; C6: water 100 ml + simethicone 200 mg + Hedera helix 70 mg). The solution was swallowed 15 to 30 minutes passing through the cricopharyngeus muscle. The Kappa test was performed to measure interobserver concordance of the TVMS scale. Results: Of 412 patients, 58% were female; 23% (136) were included in the C1 and C2 cohorts; and 67% (276) were in the C3 to C6 cohorts. The average exposure time to each solution was 24.4 minutes. The wash volume for proper visualization was significantly different between the two groups. In premedicated patients, 75.6 mL of solution were used, while in patients without premedication, 124 mL were used (p = 0.000), with an excellent quality of TVMS of 88.7% versus 41.4%, respectively. The C4 cohort (water 100 mL + simethicone 200 mg + N-acetylcysteine 600 mg) was the most effective with a significant difference (p= 0.001) compared with the C1 (fasting) and C2 (placebo with water 100 mL) cohorts. It also had better efficiency compared to the C3, C5 and C6 cohorts in that order. There were no adverse events or complications associated with endoscopy, sedation, or premedication products. Conclusions: The most effective solution as a premedication to achieve excellent visibility of the digestive mucosa was that used in the C4 cohort (SIM 200 + NAC 600 + H2OR 100 mL). The proposed TVMS scale is a very complete and easy tool to apply by more than one observer. Premedication ingested, with anti-foam, mucolytic and water up to 100 mL, between 15 and 30 minutes before endoscopy, is safe under the conditions described in this study.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To present and discuss the endoscopic and histological results, as well as the incidence of Helicobacter pylori and other diseases, indications and characteristics of upper digestive endoscopies performed in children. Material and methods: Twenty-five endoscopies were performed in children aged six months to 11 years (mean 7.69 years), from February 2013 to January 2016. In 200 patients, endoscopies were diagnostic and serial biopsies were performed (esophagus, stomach and duodenum), in 120 of them. Results: The indication of endoscopy was diagnosed in 88.89% of the patients, and in 26 patients, a therapeutic procedure was performed. The most frequent endoscopic findings were esophagitis in 49 patients, gastritis in 84 and duodenitis in 16 patients. Four duodenal ulcers were diagnosed. In the therapeutic endoscopies, six gastrostomies were performed, 14 foreign body withdrawals, five nasoenteral tube passages and esophageal dilatation. The H. pylori survey was performed by anatomopathological method and was positive in 26 (13%) of the 200 patients in whom it was searched. Conclusion: pediatric endoscopy is an important niche of the digestive endoscopy, where it is important to emphasize the relevance of the institutional structure that performs these procedures, in order to conduct them safely, being able to treat possible and feasible complications

ABSTRACT

La hemorragia de vías digestivas altas (HVDA) es una emergencia habitual; su etiología más común es laúlcera péptica. La restauración del volumen intravascular y la presión arterial son la prioridad del manejo previo al identificar la causa del sangrado. La esofagogastroduodenoscopia (EGD) debe realizarse luego de lareanimación inicial, así como lograrse la estabilización hemodinámica, para identifi car la causa del sangradoy dar el tratamiento necesario. Se realiza un estudio sobre el evento en un hospital de referencia de tercernivel, en Cundinamarca, Colombia.Materiales y métodos: Estudio descriptivo retrospectivo; datos obtenidos de la historia clínica electrónica de pacientes adultos que consultaron por urgencias en el Hospital Universitario de la Samaritana (HUS) por HVDA, diagnosticada por hematemesis, melenas, rectorragia o anemia, y a quienes se les realizó EGDdurante el periodo abril de 2010-abril de 2011. Resultados: Se atendió a 385 pacientes a lo largo del período de estudio; se excluyó a 100 de ellos,debido a hemorragia secundaria a várices esofágicas, historia clínica incompleta y hemorragia digestivabaja, para un total de 285 pacientes analizados. Conclusiones: La mayoría de la población atendida en el Hospital Universitario de La Samaritana (HUS)por HVDA son adultos mayores de 60 años. La úlcera péptica sigue siendo el diagnóstico más común asociadoal uso de AINE y ASA. La mortalidad es comparable a la de las regencias internacionales.


Upper gastrointestinal tract bleeding is a common emergency whose most common etiology is a peptic ulcer.Restoration of intravascular volume and blood pressure management are priorities before identifyingthe cause of bleeding. After initial resuscitation and after hemodynamic stabilization has been achieved, anesophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) should be performed to identify the cause of bleeding and determinethe treatment needed. This is a study performed at a third level referral hospital in Cundinamarca, Colombia.Materials and Methods: This is a retrospective study of data from electronic medical records of adult patients admitted to the emergency room of the Hospital Universitario de la Samaritana (HUS) because of uppergastrointestinal tract bleeding which ahd been diagnosed because of hematemesis, melena, rectal bleedingand/or anemia. Patients all underwent EGD between April 2010 and April 2011.Results: 385 patients with upper gastrointestinal tract bleeding were seen during the study period, but 100were excluded because of bleeding secondary esophageal varices, incomplete clinical histories and lowergastrointestinal bleeding. A total of 285 patients were included. 69.1 % were older than 60 years, 73.3 % hadhypertension, 55.1 % reported use of infl ammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and aspirin (ASA), 19.6 % reported previous bleeding episodes, and 17.9 % had hemodynamic instability. 63 patients (22.1 %) required endoscopichemostasis, and 32 (11.2 %) experienced rebleeding. Overall mortality reported was 13.1 % of which 55.3 %were men. Mortality attributable to gastrointestinal bleeding was 3.1 %.Conclusions: The majority of patients served by the HUS with upper GI bleeding are adults over 60 years.Peptic ulcers remain the most common diagnosis associated with the use of NSAIDs and ASA. The mortalityrate is comparable to international standards.

ABSTRACT

Fundamento: el cáncer gástrico es una de las principales causas de muerte. En Cuba la mayoría son diagnosticados en fases avanzadas ensombreciendo el pronóstico. La linitis plástica es una forma de crecimiento submucoso del adenocarcinoma. Objetivo: ofrecer lección a médicos sobre los signos endoscópicos de sospecha y complementarios a utilizar para diagnosticarlo rápidamente. Presentación de caso: paciente que refería epigastralgia, vómitos y pérdida de peso. La radiografía contrastada de estómago evidenció rigidez y defecto de lleno en curvatura mayor y menor. La esofagogastroduodenoscopía mostró ausencia de peristalsis y estenosis de la luz del estómago. En el examen laparoscópico se observó exteriorización del tumor. El diagnóstico definitivo se realizó por macrobiopsia después de la cirugía. Conclusiones: se ha de sospechar la entidad ante un paciente con la clínica sugestiva de tumor y hallazgos endoscópicos como la disminución de la peristalsis y la reducción de la luz del órgano.


Background: gastric cancer is one of the main causes of death. In Cuba most of the cases are diagnosed in advanced stages clouding the outlook. The plastic linitis is a form of submucosal growth adenocarcinoma. Objective: to provide medical lesson on endoscopic signs of suspicion and complementary use to diagnose it quickly. Case Presentation: a patient referred epigastralgia, vomiting and weight loss. The stomach contrasted radiography showed stiffness and squarely defect in major and minor curvature. The esophagogastroduodenoscopy showed absence of peristalsis and stenosis of the light of the stomach. In the laparoscopic exam the tumor externalization was observed. The final diagnosis was carried out by macrobiopsy after surgery. Conclusions: doctors have to suspect the disease in a patient with clinical suggestive features of tumor and endoscopic findings as decreased peristalsis and reduced organ light.

ABSTRACT

RACIONAL: O correto posicionamento da sonda nasogástrica para nutrição enteral tem sido alvo de várias investigações, demonstrando as controvérsias e a complexidade do procedimento. OBJETIVO: Prever as medidas antropométricas para realizar a inserção de sonda para nutrição enteral até o estômago empregando a esofagogastroduodenoscopia para calcular-se o comprimento necessário até o estômago. MÉTODO: Medidas externas foram obtidas entre a ponta do nariz vs lobo da orelha vs apêndice xifóide vs umbigo e altura correlacionadas com a medida padrão obtida em pacientes submetidos à esofagogastroduodenoscopia diagnóstica. RESULTADOS: Encontrou-se correlação estatisticamente significativa entre a transição esofagogástrica identificada durante a endoscopia, acrescida da distância da rima labial à arcada dentária superior, com a distância compreendida entre os pontos anatômicos lóbulo da orelha e apêndice xifóide (r=0.75). CONCLUSÃO: A distância entre o lóbulo da orelha ao apêndice xifóide (0.75) e a distância entre o lóbulo da orelha ao apêndice xifóide até o ponto médio da cicatriz umbilical, subtraindo a distância da ponta do nariz ao lóbulo da orelha, foram parâmetros anatômicos seguros para estimar-se a distância da transição esofagogástrica. A altura na posição em pé (r = 0,72) também pode ser utilizada como um indicador da distância necessária para inserir o tubo no estômago.


BACKGROUND:The correct placement of a nasogastric tube for enteral nutrition is subject of several investigations, demonstrating the controversy of the procedure. AIM: To establish an external measure that can correspond to the internal measurement which determines the insertion length of nasogastric feeding tube up to the stomach. METHODS: External measures were obtained between points: nose tip vs earlobe vs xiphoid appendix vs umbilicus and height correlated with the standard measures obtained from patients undergoing diagnostic esophagogastroduodenoscopy. RESULTS: It was found a significative statistical correlation between esophagogastric junction, identified during the esophagogastroduodenoscopy, with the distance measured between the anatomic points of the earlobe and xiphoid appendix (r= 0.75) and from this line with the orthostatic height (r=0.72). CONCLUSION: The distance between the earlobe to the xiphoid appendix (0.75) and the distance between the earlobe to the xiphoid appendix to the midpoint of the umbilicus, subtracting the distance from tip of nose to earlobe, were safe anatomical parameters to reach the esophagogastric junction. The height in the standing position (r= 0.72) also can be used as an indicator of the length necessary to insert the tube into the stomach. The height in the standing position (r= 0.72) also can be used as an indicator of the length necessary to insert the tube into the stomach.

ABSTRACT

Determinar la prevalencia del H. pylori en pacientes procedentes de nivéleles socioeconómicos medio y alto con gastritis crónica y ulcera. Se evaluó mediante esofagogastroduodenoscopía (EGDC) a 776 pacientes, los cuales fueron divididos en 4 grupos de acuerdo a los hallazgos endoscópicos; para establecer su nivel socioeconómico se interrogó sobre lugar y zona de residencia, nivel educativo, ocupación, nivel de ingresos por mes, tipo de de salud. Se encontró una prevalencia de infección por H. pylori del 62.9%, predominante en el sexo masculino (65%) en relación al sexo femenino (62.7%) y en el grupo etáreo de 14 a 29 años (57.2%); según el nivel socioeconómico, se encontró mayor prevalencia de infección en el nivel socioeconómico medio bajo (65.4%), con muy poca diferencia en relación al nivel alto (65%). La prevalencia de infección por H. pylori en pacientes de estratos socioeconómicos medio y alto con gastritis crónica es significativamente alta y similar a prevalencias obtenidas en anteriores estudios.


The objetive was to determine the prevalence of Helicobacter pylori in patients from middle and upper socioeconomic level with chronic gastritis and ulcer. We evaluated by esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGDC) to 776 patients, whom were divided in 4 groups according to endoscopic findings, to establish their socioeconomic level they were interrogated about the place and area of residence, educational level, occupation, level of monthly income, type of housing, water supply and drainage, household and access to health services. We found a prevalence of helicobacter pylori infection of62.9%, predominantly in males (65%) in relation to women (62.7%) and in the etareus group between 14 to 29 years old (57.2%); about the socioeconomic level, the highest prevalence of infection was found in the lower middle socioeconomic level (65.4%), with little difference in relation to high socioeconomic level (65%). The prevalence of helicobacter pylori infection in patients of middle and upper socioeconomic levels with chronic gastritis are significantly higher and similar compared to prevalences obtained in previous studies.
