ABSTRACT
Introducción: Serratia marcescens, bacilo Gram negativo, familia enterobacteriaceae; se encuentra en la flora intestinal del hombre y animales, en el medio ambiente y en reservorios como agua, cañerías, llaves, en insumos hospitalarios como jabones y antisépticos. Objetivos: determinar la presencia de un brote, localizaciones, comorbilidades presentes; serotipo del agente causal, cortar la cadena de transmisión. Metodología: estudio descriptivo de un brote epidémico por S. marcescens en el periodo comprendido entre 27 de Abril del 2015 a 19 de Junio del 2015. Se definió como caso a cualquier paciente con cultivo positivo para S. marcescens durante el período epidémico, ya que no se había identificado ningún cultivo positivo para esta bacteria con dicha resistencia en los años previos de vigilancia. Hipótesis: Transmisión por contacto, mano portada. Resultados durante el período epidémico se identificaron 5 pacientes con cultivos positivos para S. marcescens. Las comorbilidades fueron, choque séptico de origen enteral 1/5, cardiopatía/ bronquiolitis 1/5, pos operado de hemorragia ventricular 1/5, oclusión intestinal/ sepsis neonatal tardia1/5. Con procedimientos invasivos tales como, asistencia respiratoria mecánica, catéter venoso central, catéter urinario 5/5, cirugía 2/5, catéter de derivación externa 1/5, antibiótico de amplio espectro con 2 o más asociaciones 4/5, promedio de 43 DDI. Localizaciones: S. Traqueal 3/5, PC 2/5, liq. Peritoneal, HMC 1/5. Tasa de ataque 9.4%(5/53), letalidad 60%(3/5) Intervenciones: precauciones de contacto, cohorte, higiene hospitalaria. Conclusiones: brote a Serratia marcescens, productora de carbapenemasa, detectada mediante vigilancia activa en UCIP, más frecuentemente aislado en S. traqueal y PC. Se controló con medidas de prevención y control.
Introduction: Serratia marcescens, Gram negative bacillus, family enterobacteriaceae; Is found in the intestinal flora of man and animals, in the environment and in reservoirs such as water, pipes, keys, in hospital supplies such as soaps and antiseptics. Objectives: to determine the presence of an outbreak, localizations, present comorbidities; Serotype of the causative agent, cut the transmission chain. Methodology: a descriptive study of an outbreak of S. marcescens in the period from April 27, 2015 to June 19, 2015. Any patient with positive culture for S. marcescens during the epidemic period was defined as the case, since No positive culture for this bacterium had been identified with such resistance in previous years of surveillance. Hypothesis: Transmission by contact, hand cover. Results: 5 patients with S. marcescens positive cultures were identified during the epidemic period. Comorbidities were septic shock of enteral origin 1/5, heart disease / bronchiolitis 1/5, postoperative of ventricular hemorrhage 1/5, intestinal occlusion / late neonatal sepsis1 / 5. With invasive procedures such as mechanical ventilation, central venous catheter, urinary catheter 5/5, surgery 2/5, external lead catheter 1/5, broad spectrum antibiotic with 2 or more associations 4/5, average of 43 DDI . Locations: S. Traqueal 3/5, PC 2/5, liq. Peritoneal, HMC 1/5. Attack rate 9.4% (5/53), lethality 60% (3/5) Interventions: contact precautions, cohort, hospital hygiene. Conclusions: outbreak of Serratia marcescens, a producer of carbapenemase, detected by active surveillance in PICU, most frequently isolated in S. tracheal and PC. It was controlled with prevention and control measures.

Resumo Os objetivos deste estudo foram construir um indicador de envelhecimento ativo e testar sua associação com qualidade de vida e possíveis determinantes segundo gênero. O estudo AGEQOL (Aging, Gender and Quality of Life) entrevistou 2052 indivíduos com 60 anos e mais de idade residentes em Sete Lagoas, MG, Brasil. A associação entre envelhecimento ativo, qualidade de vida e possíveis determinantes foi realizada por meio da regressão logística múltipla, com nível de 5% de significância estatística, separadamente para cada gênero. A maioria dos homens pertenceu ao grupo com envelhecimento ativo (58,0%), enquanto 51,8% das mulheres foram alocadas no grupo com envelhecimento normal (p < 0,001). A qualidade de vida nos domínios Físico, Psicológico e Escore total mantiveram-se associada ao desfecho no modelo final para ambos os gêneros. Entre os homens, os fatores comportamentais e participação comunitária foram preditores positivos para envelhecimento ativo. Mulheres com maior renda, que não sofreram quedas e com participação comunitária tiveram maior chance de pertencer ao grupo com envelhecimento ativo. Conclui-se que qualidade de vida e a participação em grupos são os principais determinantes de envelhecimento ativo, e que os demais fatores determinantes associados são diferentes para cada gênero.
Abstract The scope of this study was to construct an indicator of active aging and assess its association with quality of life and possible determinants according to gender. The AGEQOL (Aging, Gender and Quality of Life) study was used to interview 2052 individuals aged 60 years and older residing in Sete Lagoas in the State of Minas Gerais. The association between active aging, quality of life and possible determinants was performed by multiple logistic regression with a 5% level of statistical significance separately for each gender. Most men were in the active aging group (58%), and 51.8% of women were in the normal aging group (p < 0.001). The quality of life in the Physical, Psychological, and total Score domains remained associated with the outcome in the final model for both genders. Among the men, the behavioral and community participation factors were positive predictors of active aging. Women with higher incomes, who did not suffer falls and engaged in community participation, had a better chance of belonging to the active aging group. The conclusion drawn is that quality of life and participation in groups are the main determinants of active aging, and the other factors associated with active aging are different for each gender.
