Introdução: A correção da relação radix dorso nasal é realizada há vários anos utilizando as mais variadas técnicas como enxerto de cartilagem auricular, septal ou costal, preenchimento com ácido hialurônico, uso de fáscia e enxertos e uso de cartilagem picada em cubo, silicone e ácido hialurônico. O uso de cartilagem fragmentada é descrito na literatura e tem ganhado adeptos nos últimos anos, pela facilidade em ser realizado. O objetivo neste estudo é descrever nossa experiência com a utilização do enxerto de cartilagem fragmentado no aumento do radix comparando a percepção visual e tátil do paciente e sua satisfação. Método: Estudo observacional em pacientes submetidos a rinoplastia no período de janeiro 2018 a junho de 2022, em cirurgias nas quais ocorreu o aumento de radix com o uso de enxerto de cartilagem picada. Resultados: Dos 47 pacientes, a maioria era do sexo feminino (35, 74,4%), com média de idade de 34,6 anos (18-44). Quanto ao tipo de pele, Fitzpatrick tipo 3 (n=28, 59,5%) foi o principal, sendo encontrado frequentemente pacientes com pele de média espessura (n=23, 48,9%). Complicações presentes foram infecção (1 caso), migração de cartilagem picada (3 casos), e reabsorção parcial (1 caso). Na avaliação da percepção tátil 42 pacientes (89,3%) percebiam, à palpação, as proeminências cartilaginosas e na visual apenas 2 (4%). A satisfação foi elevada em 45 (96%) pacientes. Conclusão: A cartilagem picada livre pode ser utilizada na região do radix com resultados satisfatórios.
Introduction: Correction of the nasal radix dorsum relationship has been carried out for several years using the most varied techniques such as auricular, septal, or costal cartilage grafts, filling with hyaluronic acid, use of fascia and grafts and the use of diced cartilage, silicone, and hyaluronic acid. The use of fragmented cartilage is described in the literature and has gained popularity in recent years, due to its ease of use. The objective of this study is to describe our experience with the use of fragmented cartilage graft in radix augmentation, comparing the patient's visual and tactile perception and satisfaction. Method: Observational study in patients undergoing rhinoplasty from January 2018 to June 2022, in surgeries in which the radix was increased with the use of minced cartilage graft. Results: Of the 47 patients, the majority were female (35, 74.4%), with a mean age of 34.6 years (18-44). As for skin type, Fitzpatrick type 3 (n=28, 59.5%) was the main one, with patients with medium-thickness skin being frequently found (n=23, 48.9%). Complications present were infection (1 case), migration of chopped cartilage (3 cases), and partial resorption (1 case). In the assessment of tactile perception, 42 patients (89.3%) perceived cartilaginous prominences on palpation and only 2 (4%) visually. Satisfaction was high in 45 (96%) patients. Conclusion: Free minced cartilage can be used in the radix region with satisfactory results.

ABSTRACT Introduction: Urethral stricture is a common, albeit complex, condition that predominantly affects men. The aim of this study was to translate, culturally adapt, and validate the Patient-Reported Outcome Measure questionnaire for patients undergoing urethroplasty (USS-PROM) into Brazilian Portuguese using validated psychometric criteria. Materials and Methods: The process involved translating and culturally adapting the original USS-PROM into Brazilian Portuguese (USS-PROMbr), synthesizing, back-translating, cross-culturally adapting, and analyzing the pre-final version with experts from our committee. This pre-version was administered to 10 patients who had undergone urethroplasty by the Reconstructive Urology team at the Hospital de Clínicas de Porto Alegre for face validation, linguistic, and semantic adjustments, resulting in the final USS-PROMbr version. Subsequently, well-established psychometric criteria, including content validity, internal consistency, and test-retest reproducibility, were assessed after administering the questionnaire to a total of 56 patients, with 50 of them responding to the test and retest. Results: Evaluation of the pre-final version identified 15 questions as clear, and only one question was considered somewhat unclear necessitating modifications based on patient suggestions and subsequent reassessment by the research team. Psychometric criteria demonstrated good content validity, with a content validity index exceeding 0.80 for all questions; good internal consistency, Cronbach's alpha of 0.77, ranging from 0.70 to 0.78 with the exclusion of any item, and item-total correlations ranging from 0.33 to 0.67. The test-retest intraclass correlation coefficient was 0.74 for the lower urinary tract symptoms construct (Q1-Q6). Conclusion: The USS-PROMbr demonstrated acceptable cross-cultural adaptation and psychometric properties, making it a valid and useful tool for evaluating patients undergoing urethroplasty.

Los implantes dentales se han convertido en un componente rutinario de la práctica dental diaria. A la vez, pueden producir molestias, destrucción desenfrenada de la salud bucal o reemplazo quirúrgico y costoso de un implante fallido. La detección temprana de la pérdida ósea marginal es vital para la planificación del tratamiento y el pronóstico de los implantes. Estos están diseñados para adaptarse mejor a los diversos tipos de hueso y fallan debido a muchas razones. Entender los desafíos y las expectativas del paciente a través de la honestidad, es una parte importante del tratamiento, cuyo éxito no solo dependerá de los integrantes del equipo implantológico o de técnica, sino también del cuidado del paciente al realizar su higiene diaria. Por esa razón, se realizó una búsqueda bibliográfica en las bases de datos MEDLINE y PubMed sobre molestias periimplantar, consultándose 30 referencias de los últimos cinco años.
Dental implants have become a routine component of daily dental practice. At the same time, they can cause discomfort, rampant destruction of oral health, or expensive surgical replacement of a failed implant. Early detection of marginal bone loss is vital for treatment planning and implant prognosis. These are designed to best fit various bone types and fail due to many reasons. Understanding the patient's challenges and expectations through honesty is an important part of the treatment, whose success will not only depend on the members of the implantology or technical team, but also on the patient's care when performing their daily hygiene. For this reason, a bibliographic search was carried out in the MEDLINE and PubMed databases on peri-implant discomfort, consulting 30 bibliographical references from the last 5 years.
Résumé
Introducción: la patología de baja complejidad representa un número muy importante dentro de las cirugías que se realizan en pediatría. Los niños, en su mayoría, no presentan patologías previas que requieran cuidados especiales. Las listas de espera para resolución de pacientes de baja complejidad aumentan, en general, en meses donde el hospital se ve sobrecargado de ingresos, esto a su vez se ha visto incrementado en los últimos dos años, vinculado a la pandemia por COVID-19. Surgió, entonces, la necesidad de implementar un programa donde la patología de baja complejidad, en pacientes que cumplan ciertos criterios, pueda resolverse mediante la modalidad de cirugía ambulatoria. Esto implica un beneficio tanto para el niño y la familia, con reducción de los niveles de estrés vinculados a la permanencia en el hospital, menor probabilidad de adquirir infecciones intrahospitalarias, limitación en el impacto socioeconómico a nivel familiar, como claros beneficios para el hospital, ya que reduce el ingreso con reducción de costos y sin necesidad de utilizar camas de internación. Objetivo: analizar los resultados iniciales del programa de cirugía ambulatoria del Hospital Pediátrico del Centro Hospitalario Pereira Rossell (HP-CHPR) en base a la satisfacción de la familia. Material y método: se recabaron los datos de pacientes asistidos bajo el sistema de cirugía ambulatoria desde junio de 2021 hasta enero de 2022. Aplicamos un cuestionario breve para evaluar la satisfacción del programa con vistas a evaluar resultados iniciales, y, de requerirlo, realizar cambios en pos de su mejora. Resultados: ingresaron al programa 35 pacientes en el Departamento de Cirugía General; pudimos realizar la encuesta de satisfacción a las personas responsables de 25 pacientes. El 100% de los encuestados considera que es beneficioso acompañar a su hijo a la sala de operaciones. Detallamos la respuesta a cada punto del cuestionario realizado. En el último apartado, donde preguntamos qué cambios realizaría, en cuatro casos las respuestas fueron "tomar en cuenta más la opinión del niño", "mejorar la información preoperatoria" y "mejorar la comunicación con respecto a los cuidados posoperatorios" y "mejorar los tiempos de ingreso a block". Conclusiones: la satisfacción de los cuidadores de los niños asistidos en su mayoría es buena. Detectamos aspectos a mejorar basados en ajustar tiempos de ingreso a la sala de operaciones, así como en la comunicación con el cuidador y el niño en lo que respecta a los cuidados posoperatorios en domicilio.
Summary: Introduction: low complexity pathologies account for a very high number of the surgeries performed in pediatrics. Most of the children do not present previous pathologies that require special care. The waiting lists for the resolution of low complexity surgeries generally increases during the months when the hospital is overloaded with admissions, a trend that has grown in the last 2 years, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The need arose to implement a program where low-complexity pathology in patients who meet certain criteria can be resolved through out-patient surgery. This implies a benefit for both the child and the family, reduced stress linked to hospital stay, a lower probability of acquiring nosocomial infections, limitation of the socioeconomic impact at the family level, as well as clear benefits for the hospital, such as reduction of admission costs and hospital beds. Objective: to analyze the initial results of the Out-Patient Surgery Program of the CHPR Pediatric Hospital based on family satisfaction. Material and Methods: the data of patients assisted under the Ambulatory Surgery system were collected from June 2021 to January 2022. We applied a brief questionnaire to assess initial satisfaction levels regarding the program and eventual changes required to improve the program. Results: 35 patients joined the program in the Department of General Surgery and the satisfaction survey was completed by 25 patients. 100% of the respondents consider that it is beneficial to accompany their children into the surgical room. We describe the responses provided to all the questions administered to the 25 patients. In the last section of the questionnaire, where we asked what changes they would make, in 4 cases the answers were: "take the child's opinion into account more often", "improve preoperative information", "improve communication regarding postoperative care". and "improve block entry times". Conclusion: satisfaction levels of the assisted children caregivers are mostly good. We detected aspects to improve regarding adjustment of admission times into the surgical room as well as communication with the caregiver and the child regarding postoperative home care.
Introdução: a patologia de baixa complexidade representa um importante número das cirurgias que são realizadas em pediatria. A maioria das crianças não apresenta patologias prévias que requeiram cuidados especiais. As listas de espera para resolução de pacientes de baixa complexidade geralmente aumentam nos meses em que o hospital está sobrecarregado com internações, neste caso aumentaram nos últimos 2 anos, por causa da Pandemia da covid-19. Neste período, surgiu a necessidade de implementar um programa onde a patologia de baixa complexidade em pacientes que reúnam determinados critérios possa ser resolvida através de cirurgia ambulatorial. Isto implica um benefício tanto para a criança como para a família, com redução dos níveis de stress ligados ao internamento, menor probabilidade de contrair infeções nosocomiais, limitação do impacto socioeconômico ao nível familiar, bem como claros benefícios para o hospital, pois reduz a internação com custos reduzidos e diminui a necessidade de utilização de leitos de internação. Objetivo: analisar os resultados iniciais do programa de Cirurgia Ambulatorial do Hospital Pediátrico do CHPR baseados nos níveis de satisfação das famílias. Material e método: foram coletados os dados dos pacientes atendidos no sistema de Cirurgia Ambulatorial, no período de junho de 2021 a janeiro de 2022. Aplicamos um breve questionário para avaliar a satisfação com o programa, a fim de avaliar os resultados iniciais e exigir mudanças após o programa de benefício. Resultados: 35 pacientes ingressaram no programa no Departamento de Cirurgia Geral, pudemos realizar a pesquisa de satisfação de 25 pacientes. 100% dos inquiridos consideram que é positivo acompanhar os filhos ao centro cirúrgico. Detalhamos a resposta a cada ponto do questionário aplicado aos 25 pacientes. Na última seção do questionário, onde perguntávamos quais mudanças eles fariam, em 4 casos as respostas foram: "levar mais em conta a opinião da criança", "melhorar a informação pré-operatória", "melhorar a comunicação sobre os cuidados pós-operatórios" e "melhorar os tempos de entrada do bloco". Conclusão: o nível de satisfação dos cuidadores das crianças atendidas é em sua maioria bom. Detectamos aspectos a melhorar com base na adequação dos horários de admissão na sala cirúrgica e na comunicação com o cuidador e a criança sobre os cuidados pós-operatórios em casa.
Résumé
Resumo O vínculo com os serviços de saúde é uma dimensão crucial para viabilizar o projeto materno de casais de mulheres lésbicas e bissexuais. Este estudo teve como objetivo analisar os significados culturalmente construídos sobre o vínculo com os serviços e profissionais de saúde por mulheres lésbicas e bissexuais que vivenciaram a dupla maternidade. Investigação qualitativa fundamentada na antropologia interpretativa. O corpus de pesquisa foi construído com base em entrevista em profundidade com 10 mulheres de 30 a 39 anos. Os resultados mostram que o acesso à parentalidade implicou um itinerário permeado por satisfações e sofrimentos devido a tentativas frustradas e perdas gestacionais. Também foram relatados percalços vivenciados na produção do cuidado em saúde devido a preconceitos, falta de empatia e despreparo de profissionais para lidarem com acompanhamento de pré-natal aos casais de mulheres lésbicas/bissexuais. As manifestações de discriminação foram mais contundentes em relação às mães não gestantes. Os resultados oferecem subsídios para implementação de políticas de humanização e planejamento de programas e serviços de saúde baseados em cuidados culturalmente sensíveis à diversidade para casais de mulheres lésbicas/bissexuais que vivenciam a transição para a maternidade.
Abstract The bond with healthcare services is a crucial dimension in facilitating the maternal journey of lesbian and bisexual women couples. This study aimed to analyze the culturally constructed meanings regarding the bond with healthcare services and professionals by lesbian and bisexual women who experienced dual motherhood. It is a qualitative investigation grounded in interpretative anthropology. The research corpus was built based on in-depth interviews with 10 lesbian and bisexual women, aged 30 to 39 years. The results indicate that access to parenthood, until its realization, involved a journey permeated by satisfactions and sufferings triggered by failed attempts and gestational losses. Challenges experienced in healthcare provision were also reported due to prejudices, lack of empathy, and unpreparedness of professionals in dealing with prenatal care for lesbian and bisexual women couples. Manifestations of discrimination were more pronounced concerning non-gestational mothers. The findings offer insights into implementing policies that prioritize humanization and planning programs and healthcare services based on culturally sensitive care for lesbian and bisexual women couples as they transition into dual motherhood.

ABSTRACT Objective: To assess the relationship between patients' and dentists' perceptions of shade selection and its impact on satisfaction with the prosthesis. Material and Methods: A single group pre-post study was conducted at the Prosthodontics department of a teaching hospital in India. One hundred ten participants were selected through a systematic random sampling technique with inclusion and exclusion criteria. Patients' attitudes regarding the aesthetics of their maxillary anterior teeth were recorded using a validated questionnaire. Shades for the intended prosthetic crown selected by the dentist and chosen by the patient were recorded separately, and patient satisfaction with the appearance of the final prosthesis was recorded. We used descriptive statistics followed by Pearson's Chi-square test and a binomial logistic regression model for inferential statistics. Results: 109 participant's data were available for final analysis. Patients choose lighter shades than the dentist's selection, which is statistically significant (p=0.000). 73.4% were satisfied with the final prosthesis, and the binomial logistic regression model identified using patient-selected shade for the final prosthesis was significantly associated with patients' satisfaction with the final prosthesis (OR=3.3, p=0.001). Conclusion: The patient's preference should be considered with the dentist's option when selecting a shade to create good esthetics.

INTRODUCTION: Emergency care involves multiple factors that impact the quality of the service provided, and its evaluation is crucial to enhance user satisfaction. However, the use of surveys does not always succeed in revealing the patient's experience and the experiences of staff who provide the service. OBJECTIVE: To ascertain the perceived quality of care by users of an emergency department in a private clinic in Chile. METHODOLOGY: Qualitative, descriptive research involving 15 patients, five relatives and ten healthcare team members. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and non-participant observation. An inductive approach was used to analyze the data, implementing selective and axial coding based on seven pre-defined categories grounded on quality dimensions. RESULTS: From the analysis of the data, six categories and 16 subcategories of care quality were obtained, with the most relevant being timeliness, warmth, comfort, technical quality, and problem-solving capacity. In the case of health personnel, violence by patients or family members emerged as a relevant factor that negatively impacts quality. CONCLUSION: There was agreement in the perception of healthcare personnel, patients, and relatives. The friendliness of the staff, as well as the accessibility and timeliness of information provided to the patient regarding care processes, were identified as strengths. Opportunities for improvement were detected related to waiting times, the presence of specialists, and the privacy offered in the care setting.

Resumen Objetivo: Evaluar el nivel de satisfacción en la atención recibida por los usuarios de la Clínica Odontológica de la Universidad México Americana del Norte (CO-UMAN) Allende. Material y método: El estudio fue descriptivo, observacional, transversal y prospectivo; se aplicó una encuesta de opinión a 200 pacientes, seleccionados mediante muestreo por conveniencia en 2019, sobre la estructura, proceso y resultados de la atención; así como bio-demográficos de cada paciente. Resultados: Predominaron pacientes con edades entre 21 y 60 años (71%), mujeres (63%), casados(as) (45%), empleados(as)/amas de casa (57%) y baja frecuencia de enfermedades concomitantes (10%). A mayor edad hubo mayor frecuencia de enfermedades concomitantes (r=0.26; p<0.05) y satisfacción en el servicio (r=0.26; p<0.05); con otras enfermedades concomitantes la satisfacción del paciente fue menor (r=-0.39; p<0.05). Los pacientes indican que hay más satisfacción (de 2.6 a 5.4 veces) al recibir un servicio adecuado o mejor. La satisfacción del paciente y la calidad de la atención de la clínica se asoció positivamente (p<0.05) con los trámites sencillos, trato por parte del odontólogo; confianza en la calidad de los servicios recibidos; relación costo/beneficio; puntualidad en la atención y efectividad del tratamiento odontológico recibido. Los coeficientes canónicos estandarizados indicaron mayor contribución en la satisfacción del usuario: las instalaciones e infraestructura de la clínica (0.479); atención del personal y proceso administrativo (0.543); atención del odontólogo (0.700); confianza en la atención y percepción del servicio recibido (0.660) y pobre relación con edad (0.078), género (0.030), estado civil (-0.040) y ocupación del paciente (0.065). Conclusión: No obstante que la cantidad y calidad del servicio de la CO-UMAN se ha incrementado y mejorado sustantivamente, es necesario desarrollar un plan de mejora continua para alcanzar estándares de calidad total.
Abstract Objective: To evaluate the level of satisfaction in the care received by the users of the Dental Clinic of the Universidad México Americana del Norte (DC-UMAN) Allende. Material and method: The study was descriptive, observational, cross-sectional, and prospective. In 2019, an opinion survey on the structure, proceedings, and results of the care, as well as bio-demographics of each patient was applied to 200 patients selected by convenience sampling. Results: Patients aged between 21 and 60 years (71%), women (63%), married (45%), employees/housewives (57%) and a low frequency of concomitant diseases (10%) predominated. At an older age, there was a higher frequency of concomitant diseases (r=0.26; p<0.05) and satisfaction in the service (r=0.26; p<0.05); with other concomitant diseases, patient satisfaction was lower (r=-0.39; p<0.05). Patients indicated that there is more satisfaction (from 2.6 to 5.4 times) when receiving an adequate or better service. Patient satisfaction and the quality of clinic care were positively associated (p<0.05) with simple procedures, treatment by the dentist, confidence in the quality of the services received, cost-benefit ratio, punctuality in the care and effectiveness of the dental treatment received. The standardized canonical coefficients indicated a greater contribution to user satisfaction from the facilities and infrastructure of the clinic (0.479), staff attention and administrative process (0.543), dental care (0.700), trust in care and perception of the service received (0.660) and poor relationship with age (0.078), gender (0.030), marital status (-0.040), and occupation (0.065) of the patient. Conclusion: Although the quantity and quality of the DC-UMAN service has increased and improved substantially, it is necessary to develop a continuous improvement plan to achieve total quality standards.

Objetivo: Determinar la eficacia de la implementación del Consultorio de Atención Inmediata como estrategia de gestión de calidad en el Servicio de Emergencia de un hospital público de Lima, Perú. Materiales y métodos: Estudio analítico, cuasi experimental de antes y después, con grupos diferentes, que se realizó en 338 usuarios externos atendidos en el Servicio de Emergencia del Hospital María Auxiliadora. Se evaluó el tiempo de espera antes y después de la implementación del Consultorio de Atención Inmediata, así como la satisfacción a través del cuestionario SERVQUAL modificado -validado y recomendado por el Ministerio de Salud (Minsa) y aplicado en el grupo de posimplementación-, además de su relación con el tiempo de espera obtenido. El análisis se realizó a través del software de IBM SPSS S25.0 mediante medidas de frecuencias y porcentajes, diferencia de medias en grupos distintos con el test de Levene y la medida no paramétrica del coeficiente de correlación de Spearman con un nivel de significancia p < 0,05. Resultados: Los resultados mostraron predominio del sexo femenino (60,95 %), en el rango de edad de 14 a 29 años (24,56 %), en la prioridad IV (67,16 %); el tiempo de espera para la atención tuvo una media de 17,70 previo a la implementación y una media de 4,27 posterior a esta, por lo tanto, hubo una diferencia significativa después de la estrategia de gestión (p < 0,00). La satisfacción del Consultorio de Atención Inmediata se obtuvo en el 56,21 % de los usuarios externos, con énfasis en la dimensión empatía (76,33 %) y capacidad de respuesta (69,23 %), mientras que la dimensión con menor satisfacción fue la fiabilidad (48,52 %), además de obtener una correlación significativa inversa entre el tiempo de espera y la satisfacción (p < 0,01 y rho: -0,39). Conclusiones: La implementación del Consultorio de Atención Inmediata en el Servicio de Emergencia fue eficaz; en consecuencia, el tiempo de espera disminuyó, lo cual, a su vez, generó satisfacción en el usuario externo.
Objective: To determine the effectiveness of the implementation of the Immediate Care Office as a quality management strategy at the Emergency Service of a public hospital in Lima, Peru. Materials and methods: An analytical, quasi-experimental, before-and-after study conducted with 338 outpatients from different groups treated at the Emergency Service of Hospital María Auxiliadora. Before and after the implementation of the Immediate Care Office, waiting time, satisfaction-assessed through the modified SERVQUAL questionnaire, which was validated and recommended by the Ministry of Health and administered to the postimplementation group-as well as the relationship between satisfaction and waiting time were evaluated. The analysis was performed using IBM SPSS statistics V25.0, frequencies and percentages, the mean difference of both groups obtained through the Levene's test, and the nonparametric measurement of the Spearman's correlation coefficient with a significance level of p < 0.05. Results: The results showed a predominance of the female sex (60.95 %), the 14-to-29-year age range (24.56 %) and the Emergency Severity Index level IV (67.16 %). The average waiting time accounted for 17.70 and 4.27 before and after the office implementation, respectively. Therefore, there was a significant difference after the management strategy (p < 0.00). Out of all outpatients, 56.21 % were satisfied with the implementation of the Immediate Care Office, mainly with the empathy (76.33 %) and responsiveness (69.23 %) dimensions, while reliability was the dimension with the lowest satisfaction score (48.52 %). Additionally, there was a significant inverse correlation between waiting time and satisfaction (p < 0.01 and rho: -0.39). Conclusions: The implementation of the Immediate Care Office at the Emergency Service was effective since it reduced the waiting time, which in turn brought satisfaction to the outpatients.
