ABSTRACT
Introducción: La hiperémesis gravídica (HG) se caracteriza por más de 3 episodios diarios de vómitos persistentes y baja de peso. Frente a un puntaje PUQE mayor a 12 requerirá manejo intrahospitalario. El objetivo de esta investigación es calcular la tasa de egreso hospitalario (TEH) por HG, en el periodo 2018 a 2021 en Chile. Metodología: Estudio observacional, descriptivo. Sobre egresos hospitalarios por HG entre los años 2018-2021 en Chile (n=4.515) según grupo etario y días de estadía, datos del Departamento de Estadística e Información de Salud. Se calculó TEH, No se requirió comité de ética. Resultados: La TEH para el periodo seleccionado fue de 16,93/100.000 habitantes, con una disminución a través de los años de estudio, siendo el menor el año 2020 con 14,11/100.000 habitantes mujeres. El grupo etario con mayor TEH fue el de 20-44 años con 30,8. El promedio de estadía hospitalaria fue de 3,65 días. Discusión: La disminución de hospitalizaciones el año 2020 puede deberse a la pandemia por COVID-19, en la que se reporta una disminución de hospitalizaciones en patologías no respiratorias. Con respecto al grupo etario con mayor TEH, puede deberse a que se trata del periodo fértil de las mujeres, generando más embarazos y casos de HG a diferencia de las edades extremas de este estudio. No hay diferencia significativa en días de estadía hospitalaria según grupo etario. Conclusión: Es importante estudiar y educar sobre esta patología para su prevención y continuar disminuyendo posibles hospitalizaciones y complicaciones por HG.
Introduction: Hyperemesis gravidarum is characterized by more than 3 daily episodes of persistent vomiting and weight loss. Patients with a PUQE score more than 12 points will require intrahospital treatment. The objective of this study is to calculate the Hyperemesis gravidarum hospital discharge rate during the years 2018 to 2021 in Chile. Methodology: It is an observational-descriptive study about Hyperemesis gravidarum hospital discharge rate during the years 2018 to 2021 in Chile (n=4.515) according to age rate and days of hospital stay, the data was taken from Departamento de Estadística e Información de Salud. The Ethics Committee was not needed. Results: The hospital discharge rate during the selected period was 16,93/100.000 habitants, decreasing through the years, being the year 2020 the one with the lower rate 14,11/100.000 women, the age group with the highest rate was 20 - 44 years with 30,8. The average of hospital stay was 3,65 days. Discussion: The decrease in the number of hospitalizations during 2020 may be due to the COVID-19 pandemic in which it was reported a decrease of hospitalization in non respiratory pathologies. According to the age group with the highest rate it may be explain because it is the fertile period of women, causing more number of pregnancy and cases of Hyperemesis gravidarum, unlike the other grupo of ages There is no significant difference in days of hospital stay according to age group Conclusion: It is important to study and educate about this pathology for its prevention and to continue reducing HG hospitalizations and complications.

Objective: the aim of this research was to determine the prevalence of Helicobacter pylori infection on Chilean pregnant women and its relationship with the appearance and severity of hyperemesis and dyspepsia. Methods: quantitative study of prevalence in a transversal cut with variable analysis. The sample was taken from 274 Chilean pregnant women from the Bío Bío province through vein puncture between June and December, 2005. Pregnant women were informed of this study, interviewed and signed an informed consent. The samples were processed using ImmunoComb II Helicobacter pylori IgG kit. Statistical analysis was performed by means of the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) Program. Results: out of the total number of pregnant women, 68.6% showed infection by Helicobacter pylori. 79.6% of the total sample had symptoms of dyspepsia, and 72.5% of this group presented Helicobacter pylori infection. 12.4% showed pregnancy hyperemesis; among them, 79.4% were infected with Helicobacter pylori. 73.4% of the pregnant women that showed gastric discomfort during the first three months had Helicobacter pylori infection. 53.7% of them continued with gastric discomfort after the first three months; of those, 95.8% were infected. Helicobacter pylori infection was present only in 1.5% of pregnant women without gastric discomfort. Conclusion: both, gastric discomfort of pregnant women and the continuity of severe symptoms of dyspepsia and hyperemesis after the first three months of gestation are significantly correlated with Helicobacter pylori infection. .
Objetivo: o objetivo desta investigação foi determinar a prevalência da infecção por Helicobacter pylori em mulheres grávidas chilenas e a sua relação com o aparecimento e agravamento de hiperêmese e dispepsia. Métodos: estudo de prevalência, quantitativo de coorte transversal com análise de variáveis. A amostra foi tomada através de punção venosa em 274 mulheres grávidas chilenas, da província de Bío Bío, nos meses de junho a dezembro de 2005. As mulheres que participaram foram informadas, assinaram um consentimento e responderam uma pesquisa. As amostras foram processadas usando o kit ImmunoComb II Helicobacter pylori IgG. A análise estatística foi realizada com o programa Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS). Resultados: do total de mulheres pesquisadas, 68,5% apresentam infecção por Helicobacter pylori. Do total, 80,7% tiveram sinais de dispepsia; dessa porcentagem, 72,5% apresentaram infecção por Helicobacter pylori. Uma porcentagem de 12,6% das pacientes apresentou hiperêmese gravídica; dessas, 79,4% tiveram a infecção. Do total das mulheres grávidas com moléstias gástricas no primeiro trimestre de gravidez, 73,4% registraram infecção por Helicobacter pylori. Uma porcentagem de 53,7% continuou com moléstias gástricas depois do primeiro trimestre e dentro desse grupo 95,8% tiveram a infecção. Infecção por Helicobacter pylori estava presente em apenas em 1,5% das mulheres grávidas sem desconforto gástrico. Conclusão: as moléstias gástricas das mulheres grávidas e o agravamento dos sinais de dispepsia e hiperêmese depois do primeiro trimestre de gravidez estão correlacionados significativamente à infecção por Helicobacter pylori. .

To determine the underlying risk factors in early pregnancy complications and outcome. Case series. This study was conducted at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology Unit-IV, Liaquat University of Medical and Health Sciences, Jamshoro, from July 2007 to June 2008. All the women with first trimester pregnancy with different complications were included in this study while those women with uneventful first trimester were excluded. The inducted women were registered on pre-designed proforma. Studied Variables including demographic details, gestational period, type of complications, risk factors, treatment and outcome. The data was expressed in terms of mean and percentages with a confidence interval of 95%. Analysis was done on SPSS version 14.

Abordam-se, através de extensa revisäo de literatura, os aspectos controvertidos relacionados à hiperemese gravídica (HG), principalmente quanto à incidência e etiopatogenia. Dentre inúmeras teorias aventadas para explicar a gênese da HG, sobressaem-se os fatores endócrinos e psicossomáticos. O diagnóstico da HG é feito baseado em dados clínicos e por exclusäo, uma vez que inúmeras patologias podem cursar com náuseas e vômitos na gravidez. Näo existem alteraçöes anátomo-patológicas específicas para esta afecçäo. A mortalidade por HG constitui na atualidade um evento de exceçäo. No que se refere à terapêutica, aspectos ligados à hidrataçäo, esquema dietético, sedaçäo, correçäo de distúrbios ácido-básicos e eletrolíticos, amparo psíquico e aborto terapêutico säo detalhadamente abordados
