ABSTRACT

Actualmente, las recomendaciones sobre cuidados paliativos sugieren que éstos se inicien lo más tempranamente posible, con el objetivo de mejorar la calidad de vida del paciente y su familia, con un enfoque biopsicosocial. A pesar de ello, aún persiste en gran parte del personal de salud la idea de que los cuidados paliativos son estrictamente cuidados de fin de vida, por lo que se asocia inconscientemente un paciente en una fase final de su enfermedad. Algunos estudios sugieren que, a pesar de las recomendaciones, la práctica habitual aún mantiene esta costumbre. Adicionalmente, no existe una duración establecida para definir cuánto deberían durar estos cuidados. A continuación, el reporte de un caso de cáncer de tiroides papilar, neoplasia conocida por su curso relativamente benigno, para tratarse de un cáncer, de lenta progresión. Este fue diagnosticado de forma tardía, con metástasis pulmonar e insuficiencia respiratoria como primer motivo de consulta, hace 8 años. Esto contrasta enormemente con la duración promedio de cuidados paliativos alrededor del mundo, que se estima es de 19 días. El reporte de este caso pretende contrastar estas realidades y mostrar un ejemplo de cuidados paliativos prolongados, los beneficios y también posibles consecuencias que éstos han tenido en la vida del paciente.


Currently, recommendations about palliative care suggest that they should be started as early in the course of the disease as possible, with the goal of improving quality of life for patients and their families, with a biopsychosocial approach. Despite this, there's still a pervasive idea among healthcare givers that palliative care is given exclusively at the end of life, thus there's a subconscious association with a patient in the final stages of their disease. Studies suggest that despite recommendations, actual practice maintains this custom. Additionally, there's no definitive duration for palliative care. The following is a case report of papillary thyroid cancer, a disease known for a relatively benign course compared to other forms of cancer, and slow progression. This disease was diagnosed in an advanced stage, with pulmonary metastasis and respiratory failure, 8 years ago. This is in stark contrast with the average duration of palliative care around the world, which is estimated to be 19 days. This report intends to highlight this difference and show an example of prolonged palliative care, the benefits and potential consequences that these may have had on the patient's life.

ABSTRACT

Moderate and deep sedation can effectively relieve or eliminate the pain and body discomfort during wound dressing change in pediatric burn patients, relieve anxiety, agitation, and even delirium of the children, reduce the metabolic rate of the children, make them in a quiet, comfortable, and cooperative state, which is conducive to the smooth completion of dressing change. This paper summarized the three aspects of moderate and deep sedation in pediatric burn patients, including the overview, main points of implementation, and effects, and further introduced the moderate and deep sedation medication regimens for different routes of administration, as well as the content of evaluation and monitoring. Suggestions on the prevention and management of related complications and the management of moderate and deep sedation implementation procedures were put forward, in order to provide references for the development of moderate and deep sedation for wound dressing change in pediatric burn patients in China.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To review the research progress of injection sites of local infiltration analgesia (LIA) in total knee arthroplasty (TKA).@*METHODS@#The relevant domestic and foreign literature in recent years was extensively reviewed. The neuroanatomy of the knee, and the research progress of the selection and the difference of effectiveness between different injection sites of LIA in clinical studies were summarized.@*RESULTS@#Large concentrations of nociceptors are present throughout the various tissues of the knee joint. Patellar tendon, subpatellar fat pad, lateral collateral ligament insertions, iliotibial band insertions, suprapatellar capsule, and posterior capsule were more sensitive to pain. Most current studies support injections into the lateral capsule, collateral ligament, retinaculum, quadriceps tendon, fat pad, and subcutaneous tissue. Whether to inject into the back of the knee and subperiosteum is controversial.@*CONCLUSION@#The relative difference of knee tissue sensitivity to pain has guiding significance for the selection of LIA injection site after TKA. Although researchers have conducted clinical trials on injection site and technique of LIA in TKA, there are certain limitations. The optimal scheme has not been determined yet, and further studies are needed.

ABSTRACT

La neuromodulación es una práctica médica implementada desde hace más de cuatro décadas. En lo que respecta a la Neurocirugía, cumple un papel en el tratamiento de diversas patologías (Parkinson, distonías, epilepsia, etc.) y con un gran potencial para aplicarlas en otras (trastorno obsesivo compulsivo [TOC], dolor pélvico). Es por ello que, en los últimos años, se cuadruplicaron las inversiones de empresas biotecnológicas en este campo por la demanda y aplicación de la terapia. La neuromodulación abarca también otras especialidades, como por ejemplo Otorrinolaringología (ORL) en implantes cocleares, Cardiología con diversos modelos de marcapasos cardíacos, Endocrinología con bombas de infusión de medicamentos, Uroginecología en incontinencia, etcétera. Nuestra institución aplica en su práctica clínica todas estas técnicas, y cumple una función jerárquica como centro de referencia en educación y políticas sanitarias. Por estos aspectos, sumados a su infraestructura, personal profesional y enfoque sanitario, puede ser considerada como un Centro de Neuromodulación referente en la región. (AU)


Neuromodulation is a medical practice established for more than forty years. In the neurosurgical field it plays a role in the treatment of different diseases (Parkinson, Dystonia, Epilepsy, etc) and has a great potential to apply in other pathologies (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, Pelvic pain). In the last years the biotechnological industry has quadrupled the investment in this field because of the demand and therapy application. Neuromodulation encompasses other specialities, for example otorhinolaryngology in cochlear implants, in cardiology with different models of pacemakers, endocrinology with implanted infusion pumps, urological gynecology in incontinence treatments, etc. Our institution applies all these techniques in its clinical practice, having a hierarchical role as a reference center in education and health policies. Due to these aspects, added to its infrastructure, professional staff and health approach, it can be considered as a reference Neuromodulation Center in the region. (AU)

ABSTRACT

Introducción: La artroplastia total de rodilla (ATR) es un procedimiento quirúrgico muy doloroso en cirugía ortopédica, siendo muy difícil su tratamiento. El objetivo del presente estudio fue comparar 3 estrategias de analgesia post operatoria en el manejo del dolor post ATR. Pacientes y Método: se estudiaron 60 pacientes, divididos en 3 grupos. Grupo 1: Bloqueo iliofascial (BIFC), Grupo 2: Analgesia epidural continua (AEPIC) y Grupo 3: Morfina intratecal (MIT). Se evaluó el dolor post operatorio (DPO) en reposo y movimiento con escala visual análoga en las primeras 24 hrs., consumo de morfina endovenosa (MEV), incidencia de efectos adversos: prurito, náuseas y vómitos (NVPO), retención urinaria (RU). Al término del tratamiento se evaluó la satisfacción del paciente. Resultados: El DPO fue significativamente menor entre las 6 y 24 hrs. en los pacientes del Grupo 3 versus los de los Grupos 1 y 2 (p<0,01). El consumo de MEV fue menor en los pacientes del grupo 3 (p< 0,01). La incidencia de prurito post operatorio y RU fue significativamente mayor en el grupo 3 versus los grupos 1 y 2 (p< 0, 001 y p< 0,008). La hipotensión arterial fue mayor en los grupos 2 y 3 versus el grupo 1 (p< 0,05), siendo más frecuente la hipotensión moderada en el grupo 3 versus a los grupos 1 y 2 (p< 0.01). La calidad de la analgesia fue considerada superior en los pacientes del grupo 3. Conclusión: Las 3 técnicas analgésicas son útiles para el manejo del DPO de una ATR. La MIT presenta menor índice de dolor, mejor calidad de la analgesia percibida por el paciente, pero una mayor incidencia de efectos adversos en relación con el BIFC y AEPIC.


Introduction: Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a very painful surgical procedure in orthopedic surgery, making its treatmentvery difficult. The objective of the present study was to compare 3 postoperative analgesia strategies in the management of post TKA pain. Patients and Method: 60 patients, divided into 3 groups, were studied. Group 1: Iliofascial blockade (BIFC), Group 2: Continuous epidural analgesia (AEPIC) and Group 3: Intrathecal morphine (MIT). Postoperative pain (POD) at rest and movement was evaluated with a visual analog scale (EVA) in the first 24 hours, intravenous morphine consumption (VEM), incidence of adverse effects: pruritus, nausea and vomiting (PONV), urinary retention (UR). At the end of treatment, patient satisfaction was evaluated. Results: The DPO was significantly lower between 6 and 24 hours in the patients of Group 3 versus those of Groups 1 and 2 (p<0.01). MEV consumption was lower in patients of group 3 (p<0.01). The incidence of postoperative pruritus and UR was significantly higher in group 3 versus groups 1 and 2 (p<0.001 and p<0.008). Arterial hypotension was greater in groups 2 and 3 versus group 1 (p<0.05), with moderate hypotension being more frequent in group 3 versus groups 1 and 2 (p<0.01). The quality of analgesia was considered superior in patients in group 3. Conclusion: The three analgesic techniques are useful for managing the DPO of a TKA. MIT presents a lower pain index, better quality of analgesia perceived by the patient, but a higher incidence of adverse effects in relation to BIFC and AEPIC.

ABSTRACT

El síndrome de intestino irritable es un trastorno digestivo funcional recientemente reconocido como una alteración en el nivel intestino-cerebral que no se explica por alteraciones morfológicas, metabólicas o neurológicas demostrables por las técnicas diagnósticas habituales, caracterizándose por la presencia de dolor y distensión abdominal recurrente asociado a alteraciones del ritmo deposicional, ya sea en forma de constipación, diarrea o ambas. La prevalencia oscila entre los 6-11% dependiendo de los criterios diagnósticos utilizados y la zona geográfica, en Chile no hay datos actuales. Su fisiopatología es multifactorial, donde ninguno explica por si solo el síndrome. El diagnóstico es positivo basado en los criterios de Roma IV establecidos en el año 2016, a su vez es imperante establecer un subtipo de SII para realizar el manejo adecuado, es así como podemos tener un SII con predominio de constipación, diarrea, mixto o indeterminado. El manejo consta de la educación al paciente, una buena relación médico-paciente, dieta adecuada, actividad física aeróbica y otros tratamientos no farmacológicos, sumado a antiespasmódicos, antidiarreicos y fibra soluble, dependiendo del síntoma predominante.


Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a functional digestive disorder recently recognized as an alteration in the gut-brain axis which can´t be explained by morphological, metabolic or neurological alterations demonstrable by the usual diagnostic techniques, characterized by the presence of recurrent abdominal pain and distention associated with alterations in the stool rhythm, either in the form of constipation, diarrhea or both. The prevalence ranges between 6-11% according to the diagnostic criteria used and the geographical area, in Chile there's no current data. Its pathophysiology is multifactorial, where any of them explains the syndrome itself. The diagnosis is positive based on the Rome IV criteria established in 2016, it is imperative to establish a subtype of IBS to carry out the appropriate management, This is how we can have IBS with a predominance of constipation, diarrhea, mixed or indeterminate Management consists of patient education, a good doctor-patient relationship, adequate diet, aerobic physical activity and other non-pharmacological treatments, added to antispasmodics, antidiarrheals and soluble fiber, depending on the predominant symptom.

ABSTRACT

El bloqueo del nervio peri prostático con lidocaína, proporciona un buen alivio del dolor en la realización de la biopsia prostática guiada por ultrasonido, pero el dolor post-procedimiento, puede llegar a ser significativo, la adición del supositorio de diclofenac, podría proporcionar alivio adicional. Se asignaron al azar pacientes en 2 grupos el grupo 1 bloqueo con lidocaína del plexo peri prostático + supositorio de diclofenac sódico y el grupo 2 bloqueo con lidocaína del plexo peri prostático + supositorio de placebo, realizando biopsia doble sextante, el dolor a varios intervalos después del procedimiento se registró en una escala visual análoga (EVA) de 0 a 10. Los 2 grupos fueron similares en cuanto a edad, volumen de próstata, antígeno prostático específico, diagnóstico histopatológico. Los pacientes que recibieron diclofenac tuvieron puntajes de dolor significativamente más bajos que los que recibieron placebo (2 frente a 3,35) p 0,02. La administración rectal de diclofenac antes de la realización de la biopsia de próstata es un procedimiento simple que alivia significativamente el dolor experimentado sin aumento en la morbilidad(AU)


The peri-prostatic nerve block with lidocaine, provides good pain relief in performing ultrasoundguided prostate biopsy, but the postprocedure pain can be significant, the addition of diclofenac suppository, could provide additional relief. Patients were randomly assigned in 2 groups to group 1 blockade with lidocaine of the prostatic peri plexus + suppository of diclofenac sodium and group 2 blockade with lidocaine of the prostatic peri plexus + placebo suppository, performing double sextant biopsy, pain at several intervals after the procedure was recorded on a visual analog scale (EVA) from 0 to 10. Thee 2 groups were similar in terms of age, prostate volume, prostate-specific antigen, histopathological diagnosis. Patients who received diclofenac had pain scores significantly lower than those who received placebo (2 vs. 3.35) p 0.02. Rectal administration of diclofenac before performing a prostate biopsy is a simple procedure that relieves significantly pain experienced without increased morbidity(AU)

Finalmente, se realizó un consenso de recomendaciones entre los integrantes del Comité de Analgesia, Sedación y Delirium de la Sociedad Argentina de Terapia Intensiva. Resultados: Se acordaron recomendaciones y se desarrollaron herramientas para asegurar un abordaje integral de analgesia, sedación, delirium, implementación de movilidad temprana e inclusión familiar del paciente adulto con síndrome de dificultad respiratoria aguda por COVID-19. Discusión: Ante el nuevo orden generado en las terapias intensivas por la progresión de la pandemia de COVID-19, proponemos no dejar atrás las buenas prácticas habituales, sino adaptarlas al contexto particular generado. Nuestro consenso está respaldado en la evidencia científica, la experiencia nacional e internacional, y será una herramienta de consulta atractiva en las terapias intensivas.


ABSTRACT Objective: To propose agile strategies for a comprehensive approach to analgesia, sedation, delirium, early mobility and family engagement for patients with COVID-19-associated acute respiratory distress syndrome, considering the high risk of infection among health workers, the humanitarian treatment that we must provide to patients and the inclusion of patients' families, in a context lacking specific therapeutic strategies against the virus globally available to date and a potential lack of health resources. Methods: A nonsystematic review of the scientific evidence in the main bibliographic databases was carried out, together with national and international clinical experience and judgment. Finally, a consensus of recommendations was made among the members of the Committee for Analgesia, Sedation and Delirium of the Sociedad Argentina de Terapia Intensiva. Results: Recommendations were agreed upon, and tools were developed to ensure a comprehensive approach to analgesia, sedation, delirium, early mobility and family engagement for adult patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome due to COVID-19. Discussion: Given the new order generated in intensive therapies due to the advancing COVID-19 pandemic, we propose to not leave aside the usual good practices but to adapt them to the particular context generated. Our consensus is supported by scientific evidence and national and international experience and will be an attractive consultation tool in intensive therapies.

ABSTRACT

Ante un escenario clínico de coxalgia por artrosis de cadera se planteó la necesidad de conocer los tratamientos con-servadores más seguros y efectivos para el manejo del dolor. El tratamiento de la artrosis requiere un enfoque integral e individualizado en función de las preferencias del paciente para lograr el máximo beneficio clínico. Existen numerosas estrategias útiles para el manejo del dolor en pacientes con artrosis de cadera siendo fuertemente recomendados de inicio la actividad física, los antiinflamatorios no esteroideos (AINE) orales y en ciertos casos los corticoides intraarticulares, tramadol o duloxetina, siempre asociado con la actividad física. Los ejercicios más recomendados son los aeróbicos y el Tai Chi o yoga. (AU)


Faced with a clinical scenario of coxalgia due to hip osteoarthritis, the need to know the safest and most effective conservative treatments for pain management arose. The treatment of osteoarthritis requires a comprehensive and individualised approach based on the patient's preferences to achieve maximum clinical benefit. There are numerous useful strategies for pain management in patients with hip osteoarthritis being strongly recommended from the beginning such as physical activity, oral non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) and in certain cases intra-articular corticosteroids, tramadol or duloxetine, always associated with physical activity. The most recommended exercises are aerobics and Tai Chi or yoga. (AU)

ABSTRACT

Abstract This study evaluated the effects in the pain and sleep, and the clinic significance after an analytic-behavioral intervention to manage the condition of the physical and interpersonal environment related to pain. Four women with fibromyalgia and insomnia participated in a study with intervention withdrawal multiple baseline design and initial, intermediate, final, and follow-up assessments. Self-report instruments were used to assess pain intensity and disability, sleep quality, and insomnia severity, besides the actigraphy. Data showed that the intervention (20 sessions) was effective in reducing the sleep and pain problems in all participants by shifting two participants from clinical to non-clinical status in sleep indicators. The gains were maintained or increased in follow-up measures. However, the results should take into consideration the clinical condition and other variables that may have individually impacted the results.
