ABSTRACT

BACKROUND: Pancreaticojejunal anastomosis has a high risk of pancreatic leakage, which several surgical techniques have been described. Our main objective is to determine what is the association of postoperative pancreatic leakage in patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy according to the pancreaticojejunal anastomosis technique used (Cattel vs Blumgart)? MATERIAL AND METHODS: Historical cohort, all cancer patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy were included. From April 2020 to May 2021, Cattel technique was used; from June 2021 to June 2022, Blumgart technique was used. All procedures were performed by a single board-certified surgical oncologist at Oncology Hospital. RESULTS: 24 patients (11 men and 13 women). The first 9 procedures were performed with the Cattel technique, starting from procedure 10, the Blumgart technique was used. No differences were observed regarding the consistency of the pancreas (p=0.28) or the size of the duct (p=0.51) between the two groups. Pancreatic leakage was observed in 100% with the Cattel technique and in 6.7% with the Blumgart technique (p= 0.0001). An amylase value was observed in the left drainage at 6 days > 200 U/L with the Cattel technique and < 200 U/L with Blumgart (p=0.0001). Intraoperative bleeding (Cattel 1200 ml vs. Blumgart 400 ml, p= 0.03) and 90-day mortality (Cattel 33.3% vs. Blumgart 0%, Log-Rank: 0.022) also showed a difference in favor of Blumgart technique. Blumgart technique is a protective factor for the presence of pancreatic leakage (RR 0.06, 95% CI 0.01-0.44, p=0.0001). DISCUSSION: A lower risk of pancreatic leakage was found using the Blumgart technique, compared to the Cattel technique.

ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: Kidney transplantation is the treatment of choice for end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Since March 2020, transplant activity in Mexico has been affected due to the COVID-19 pandemic. OBJECTIVE: The aim of the study was to determine the impact on mortality of patients on the waiting list (WL) for cadaveric donor kidney transplantation in a referral hospital in Yucatán, due to suspension of activities due to the pandemic. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Patients over 18 years of age on the waiting list for kidney transplantation at this hospital. In the event of a patient's death, the cause was investigated, especially if it was associated with COVID-19. A two-tailed p ≤ 0.05 was considered significant in all analyzes. RESULTS: The odds ratio (OR) of death from COVID-19 in a patient with ESRD in the WL in 2020 was OR = 5.04 (95% CI: 1.65-7.14, p = 0.023). The OR of dying with ESRD in the WL with a delay in the follow-up visits was OR = 6.59 (95% CI: 2.7-16.28, p = 0.008). CONCLUSION: The probability of death of a patient with ESRD with delayed follow-up visits and transplant retention is statistically higher than the probability of death from COVID-19.


INTRODUCCIÓN: El trasplante renal es el tratamiento de elección de la enfermedad renal en etapa terminal (ERT). Desde marzo de 2020, la actividad de trasplantes en México se ha visto afectada debido a la pandemia de COVID-19. OBJETIVO: Determinar el impacto en la mortalidad de pacientes en lista de espera (LE) para trasplante renal de donante cadavérico en un hospital de referencia en Yucatán, por suspensión de actividades debido a la pandemia. MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS: Pacientes > 18 años en LE para trasplante renal en este hospital. En caso de muerte de un paciente, se investigó la causa, especialmente si estaba asociada a COVID-19. Un valor de p de dos colas ≤ 0.05 se consideró significativo en todos los análisis. RESULTADOS: La razón de probabilidad de muerte por COVID-19 en un paciente con ERT en la LE en 2020 fue OR = 5.04 (IC 95%: 1.65-7.14, p = 0.023). La razón de probabilidad de morir con ERT en la LE con retraso en las consultas de seguimiento fue de OR = 6.59 (IC 95%: 2.7-16.28, p = 0.008). CONCLUSIÓN: La probabilidad de muerte de un paciente con ERT en la LE con retraso en las consultas de seguimiento y retención del trasplante es estadísticamente más alta que la probabilidad de muerte por COVID-19.

ABSTRACT

OBJETIVO: Determinar la calidad de vida asociada con la técnica quirúrgica en pacientes posoperados de plastia uretral. MÉTODO: Se estudiaron 29 pacientes intervenidos entre enero de 2011 y diciembre de 2015. Se aplicaron los cuestionarios Euroqol 5-D e International Prostate Symptom Score para medir calidad de vida y detectar recaídas, respectivamente. Se realizó estadística descriptiva, y se calcularon la incidencia acumulada, el riesgo relativo y la fracción atribuible. RESULTADOS: La incidencia de recaídas detectada por el International Prostate Symptom Score fue del 69% (p = 0.011); el riesgo relativo fue de 2.19 (intervalo de confianza del 95%: 2.092-2.288). La fracción atribuible a la exposición fue del 54%. La calidad de vida se asoció con la longitud de la lesión (p = 0.046), los síntomas urinarios bajos (p = 0.004) y la percepción individual del estado de salud (p = 0.003). La localización de la lesión se asoció con recaída (p = 0.008). La calidad de vida no se asoció con el tipo de plastia (p > 0.05). CONCLUSIONES: La incidencia de recurrencia posquirúrgica es alta. La calidad de vida es independiente de la técnica quirúrgica, pero está asociada con la longitud de la lesión y con los síntomas urinarios. OBJECTIVE: To determine the quality of life associated with the surgical technique in postoperative patients with urethral plasty. METHODS: 29 patients operated between January-2011 and December-2015 were studied. The questionnaires Euroqol 5-D and International Prostate Symptom Score were applied to measure quality of life and detect relapses, respectively. Descriptive statistics was performed, cumulative incidence, relative risk and attributable fraction were calculated. RESULTS: the incidence of relapse detected by the International Prostate Symptom Score was 69% (p = 0.011); the relative risk was 2.19 (95% confidence interval: 2.092-2.288). The fraction attributable to the exposure was 54%. The quality of life was associated with the length of the lesion (p = 0.046), low urinary symptoms (p = 0.004) and the individual perception of the state of health (p = 0.003). The location of the lesion was associated with relapse (p = 0.008). Quality of life was not associated with type of plasty (p > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: The incidence of postoperative recurrence is high. The quality of life is independent of the surgical technique, but it is associated with the length of the lesion and urinary symptoms.

ABSTRACT

Resumen: Objetivo: Describir la evolución clínica de pacientes pediátricos operados por cardiopatías congénitas en la UMAE de Yucatán. Métodos: Encuesta descriptiva sobre expedientes de pacientes pediátricos intervenidos quirúrgicamente por cardiopatía congénita del 1 de noviembre de 2011 al 30 de noviembre de 2013. Resultados: Las cardiopatías más frecuentes fueron la persistencia del conducto arterioso (37.6%) y la transposición de grandes vasos. La estancia en cuidados intensivos fue de 3 días (mediana). El 11.76% fallecieron por choque séptico (44.4%) en la mayoría de los casos. Las complicaciones más frecuentes fueron sepsis (5.9%), síndrome de bajo gasto (4.7%), paro cardíaco, bloqueo AV y taquicardia ventricular (2.4% cada uno). Existe una correlación positiva moderada entre las complicaciones trans y posquirúrgicas y la sobrevida o muerte del paciente. Conclusiones: El volumen de pacientes quirúrgicos es menor comparado con centros de referencia de cirugía cardiovascular. Existe una marcada tendencia a la realización de cirugías correctivas y paliativas en patologías específicas en pacientes con riesgos agregados o con «mala¼ anatomía cardiaca que impiden la corrección total de primera intención. Se deben realizar estudios epidemiológicos y clínicos prospectivos para conocer el comportamiento de las cardiopatías congénitas atendidas en la región. © 2016 Instituto Nacional de Cardiología Ignacio Chávez.

Abstract: Objective: To describe the clinical course of paediatric patients undergoing surgery for congenital heart disease in UMAE of Yucatan. Methods: Descriptive review was performed on the records of paediatric patients undergoing surgery for congenital heart disease from 1 November 2011 to 30 November 2013. Results: The most frequent heart diseases were persistent ductus arteriosus (37.6%) and trans- position of the great vessels. The median intensive care stay was 3 days. Mortality was 11.76%, with septic shock (44.4%) in most cases. The most frequent complications were sepsis (5.9%), low cardiac output syndrome (4.7%), cardiac arrest, and AV block and ventricular tachycardia (2.4% each). There was a moderate positive correlation between surgical complications and survival or death. Conclusions: The number of surgical patients is lower compared to reference centres for cardiovascular surgery. There is a marked tendency to perform corrective and palliative surgeries in specific disease in patients with added risk or 'bad' cardiac anatomy that prevent full correction at the first attempt. Prospective epidemiological and clinical studies should be conducted to understand the behaviour of congenital heart diseases treated in the region. © 2016 Instituto Nacional de Cardiología Ignacio Chávez.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Treating anemia of prematurity is transfused red blood cells and the use of erythropoiesis-stimulating agents. The aim of this article is to determine the correlation between the number of blood transfusions and the use of recombinant human erythropoietin in preterm infants with anemia. METHODS: A correlation study was performed in 80 cases of patients with anemia treated with transfusions and erythropoietin, were randomized into two groups: one was treated with transfusions (T) and one with transfusions and erythropoietin (E). Demographic variables, hemoglobin and hematocrit at the beginning and end of treatment and number of transfusions received were measured. The correlation was obtained through Spearman Rho, considering p < 0.05 as statistically significant. RESULTS: The total number of units transfused in each group was lower in group E, which received two units less than the T group (p < 0.05). The average CE transfused in group E was 4 ± 1.2 and 7 ± 1.2 for the group T. For the group E the correlation between gestational age and number of transfusions was moderately negative (-0348); birth weight and the number of packed red blood cells transfused were slightly negative (-0239). T group for the negative correlation between the same variables moderate slight negative (-0300) and (-0109), respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Erythropoietin reduces the number of blood transfusions in preterm infants with anemia. Its use does not preclude the transfusion, the patient remains exposed to the risk of communicable diseases in this way.


Introducción: el tratamiento de la anemia del prematuro consiste en la transfusión de glóbulos rojos y el uso de agentes estimulantes de la eritropoyesis. El objetivo de este trabajo es determinar la correlación entre el número de transfusiones sanguíneas y el uso de eritropoyetina recombinante humana en prematuros con anemia. Métodos: se realizó un estudio de correlación en 80 expedientes de pacientes con anemia tratados con transfusiones y eritropoyetina, se aleatorizaron en dos grupos: uno fue tratado con transfusiones (T) y otro con transfusiones y eritropoyetina (E). Se midieron variables demográficas, hemoglobina y hematócrito al inicio y al final del tratamiento y número de transfusiones recibidas. La correlación se obtuvo por medio de la Rho de Spearman, considerándose una p < 0.05 como significativamente estadística. Resultados: el total de unidades transfundidas en cada grupo fue menor en el grupo E, que recibió dos unidades menos que el grupo T (p < 0.05). El promedio de CE transfundidos en el grupo E fue 4 ± 1.2 y de 7 ± 1.2 para el grupo T. Para el grupo E la correlación entre edad gestacional y número de transfusiones fue negativa moderada (-0.348); el peso al nacimiento y el número de concentrados de eritrocitos transfundidos fue negativa leve (-0.239). Para el grupo T la correlación entre las mismas variables negativa moderada (-0.300) y negativa leve (-0.109). Conclusiones: la eritropoyetina reduce el número de transfusiones sanguíneas en recién nacidos prematuros con anemia. Su uso no excluye la transfusión, el paciente continúa expuesto al riesgo de enfermedades transmisibles por esta vía.

ABSTRACT

Resumen:


Introducción: la seguridad del paciente se ha convertido en un objeto esencial de los sistemas de salud desde la perspectiva de calidad asistencial, puesto que se identifica con los procesos de mejora de los servicios sanitarios para elevar la calidad de la atención. La Comisión Internacional de Enfermería propone el trato digno como un indicador de calidad. La enfermera es el personaje que tiene más interacción con el paciente. Objetivo: conocer la percepción del familiar y del paciente sobre el trato digno otorgado por el personal de enfermería. Metodología: se realizó una encuesta a 114 sujetos en el Hospital de Especialidades Ignacio García Téllez de Mérida, Yucatán. Se utilizó el cuestionario sobre trato digno; los datos se sometieron a análisis descriptivo y los resultados se presentaron en cuadros y figuras. Resultados: el promedio de edad fue de 40.62 ± 7.77 años. El 55.3 % de los pacientes perteneció al género femenino. El 31.6 % era del servicio de Hematología y el 28.1 % de Oncología. El nivel de escolaridad predominante fue la secundaria. El 82.5 % de los pacientes respondió que siempre recibe trato digno. Conclusiones: el personal de enfermería cumplió con los criterios de trato digno al paciente hospitalizado; sin embargo, no alcanza el indicador del sistema INDICAS, por lo que es necesario plantear p royectos de mejora para elevar la calidad de la atención.


Abstract:


Introduction: Patient safety has become essential object of health systems from the perspective of quality of care and the improvement health services. The International Nursing Commission proposes Fair treatment as a quality indicator. The nurse is the character with more interaction with the patient. Objective: To know the perception of family and patient on fair treatment by the nursing staff. Methodology: We conducted a survey of 114 subjects in the UMAE of Merida, Yucatan. The dignified treatment questionnaire was used; data underwent descriptive analysis and the results are presented in tables and figures. Results: The mean age was 40.62±7.77 years. The 55.3% were female and 44.7% was male. The 31.6% of subjects was from hematology and 28.1% was from oncology. The predominant academic level was highschool. 82.5% of answers was that the subjects always received fair treatment. Conclusions: The nursing staff met the criteria of fair treatment to hospitalized patient; however, it not enough to achieve the INDICAS goal, it is necessary to propose improvement projects to reach the quality of care.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: carbetocin, a potentially cardio toxic drug is used by intravenous bolus for uterine bleeding prevention during cesarean section. The aim was to assess the cardiac effects of carbetocin in patients undergoing cesarean sections. METHODS: a pretest-postest design study was carried out on 74 women (23 ± 5.3 years, ASA I-II classification, no history of pregnant induced-hypertension) who underwent elective or emergency cesarean section. At surgical room entry (baseline), and after administration of carbetocin (infunded 100 µg along 30 minutes) during the anesthesic-surgical follow up, vital signs and EKG were registered; and CK, CK MB, and troponin I blood levels were measured. Wilcoxon's rank test was used. RESULTS: significant changes were found on CK (30 vs. 58), CK MB (4.0 vs. 5.9), troponin I (0.01 vs. 0.03), blood sistolic pressure (110 vs. 100), blood diastolic pressure (70 vs. 60) and heart rate (76 vs. 90); all of them: p < 0.001. However, no patient showed heart ischemia signs during EKG monitoring. CONCLUSIONS: an increase on biochemical indicators of myocardiac damage blood levels was observed after the administration of a carbetocin bolus in patients underwent cesarean section.
