ABSTRACT

En este artículo se muestran las publicaciones que consideramos más relevantes sobre cardiopatías congénitas (CC) en el último año. La pandemia de COVID-19 ha seguido marcando la actividad científica en este periodo, y ya desde el inicio se ha especulado sobre el riesgo de complicaciones por la COVID-19 entre los adultos con CC. Asimismo, se ha estudiado la afectación de los niños con CC. En este año destaca la publicación de la guía europea para el tratamiento de las CC, segunda edición tras 10 años, que será de gran utilidad en la estandarización del tratamiento de estos pacientes complejos. Entre las publicaciones originales destacan las relacionadas con los temas que más preocupan a los cardiólogos de CC: el avance en la prevención primaria de las arritmias ventriculares, la hepatopatía del Fontan, el avance en las técnicas percutáneas de valvulación pulmonar, la aplicación de nuevos fármacos para la insuficiencia cardiaca avanzada en las CC complejas y en ventrículo derecho sistémico y las complicaciones a largo plazo de los adultos jóvenes con transposición de grandes arterias sometidos a cirugía de switch arterial.

ABSTRACT

To estimate the frequency of headache in patients with confirmed COVID-19 and characterize the phenotype of headache attributed to COVID-19, comparing patients depending on the need of hospitalization and sex, an observational study was done. We systematically screened all eligible patients from a reference population of 261,431 between March 8 (first case) and April 11, 2020. A physician administered a survey assessing demographic and clinical data and the phenotype of the headache. During the study period, 2194 patients out of the population at risk were diagnosed with COVID-19. Headache was described by 514/2194 patients (23.4%, 95% CI 21.7-25.3%), including 383/1614 (23.7%) outpatients and 131/580 (22.6%) inpatients. The headache phenotype was studied in detail in 458 patients (mean age, 51 years; 72% female; prior history of headache, 49%). Headache was the most frequent first symptom of COVID-19. Median headache onset was within 24 h, median duration was 7 days and persisted after 1 month in 13% of patients. Pain was bilateral (80%), predominantly frontal (71%), with pressing quality (75%), of severe intensity. Systemic symptoms were present in 98% of patients. Headache frequency and phenotype was similar in patients with and without need for hospitalization and when comparing male and female patients, being more intense in females.Trial registration: This study was supported by the Institute of Health Carlos III (ISCIII), code 07.04.467804.74011 and Regional Health Administration, Gerencia Regional de Salud, Castilla y Leon (GRS: 2289/A/2020).
