ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Asymptomatic carriers of SARS-CoV-2 can be a vehicle for transmission of the infection. This fact is of particular importance in the case of healthcare workers (HCWs). DESIGN: Cross-sectional study in HCWs in a medium size hospital in the South of Spain. METHODS: between April 15 and 25, 2020, naso and oropharyngeal PCR determination was performed together with IgG and IgM antibody determination by immunochromatography to the HCWs of the Costa del Sol Hospital in Marbella of the units involved in patient care with CoVID-19: Emergencies, Intensive Care and Anesthesia, Internal Medicine and Pneumology. Other units not directly involved in the care of these patients were offered to participate. On the day of sampling, a health questionnaire was answered, reporting symptoms on the same day and in the previous fourteen days. RESULTS: 498 HCWs were studied. Two individuals were detected with PCR for SARS-CoV-2 positive. Both were asymptomatic on the day of sampling, but one of them had had a CoVID-19 compatible picture in the previous two weeks and had positive IgG and IgM; therefore, only one subject was truly asymptomatic carrier (0.2%). 9 workers with positive IgG (1.8%) were detected. CONCLUSIONS: the prevalence of asymptomatic carriers among health workers of the services directly involved in the care of patients with CoVID-19 was very low in our center. This type of strategy can be one more tool in controlling the pandemic.

ABSTRACT

Fundamentos: Conocer la adecuación del uso de fármacos gastroprotectores en pacientes en tratamiento con bajas dosis de aspirina. Pacientes y método: Analizamos 450 informes de alta de 4 servicios de medicina interna, evaluando la presencia de tratamiento de aspirina y la utilización de protectores gástricos, así como la adecuación del uso de estos últimos según las recomendaciones establecidas tras una revisión de la bibliografía. Resultados: Un total de 57 (63 por ciento) de las 91 prescripciones de aspirina llevaba asociada la prescripción de un gastroprotector. De éstos, 51 (90 por ciento) se consideraron adecuados. Sin embargo, en 24 pacientes (26 por ciento) estaba indicado asociar un gastroprotector, pero no se hizo. Conclusiones: En la cuarta parte de los pacientes analizados tratados con aspirina en bajas dosis y en los que era recomendable la prescripción del algún tipo de antiulceroso, éste no se administró (AU)

ABSTRACT

FUNDAMENTO: Conocer los factores que pueden influir en las estancias inadecuadas en un servicio de medicina interna. PACIENTES Y MÉTODO: Analizamos 1.046 estancias, evaluando su adecuación o no utilizando el protocolo de evaluación de la adecuación. RESULTADOS: Un total de 176 estancias se consideraron inadecuadas (16,8 por ciento). Un análisis de regresión logística reveló que los días de estancia, el día de la semana y el diagnóstico al ingreso son los tres principales determinantes de inadecuación de estancias. CONCLUSIONES: Detectamos la presencia de variables que influyen, al menos parcialmente, en el porcentaje de estancias inadecuadas (AU)
