ABSTRACT

Objetivo. Validar el grado de registro del proceso clínico asistencial en la historia clínica (HC) y la actividad asistencial en la hoja de actividad (HA). Construir una guía de recomendaciones sobre la validez de estos documentos para el registro de la actividad. Tipo estudio. Observacional, transversal, multicéntrico. Emplazamiento. Cuatro consultas médicas de 12 centros de salud de la Comunidad Valenciana. Participantes. Un total de 2.051 visitas, 284 historias y 407 hojas de actividad. Mediciones y resultados principales. Se validó la información registrada por los médicos en la HC y HA, por observadores externos que recogen directamente en consulta toda la actividad asistencial de la jornada. Se analiza: a) en la HC, cumplimentación del SOAP; b) en la HA, media por profesional y día de pacientes citados, sin cita, domicilios y duración de las consultas; c) información de los documentos validados con respecto a la organización de las consultas; d) análisis de la actividad asistencial según su previsibilidad y contenido clínico, y e) guías de práctica clínica con indicadores de validez, utilidad clínica e índice de fiabilidad (kappa). Conclusiones. Los documentos validados no reflejan adecuadamente la realidad de la demanda sanitaria. Se detecta un sesgo de infrarregistro y problemas de validez que pueden limitar su utilización como fuente de información para la planificación y gestión sanitaria


Objectives. To examine how well the clinical process was recorded in the clinical history (CH), and care delivery on the activity sheet (AS). To assemble a series of recommendations on the validity of these documents for recording health care delivery. Design. Multi-centred, observational, and cross-sectonal study. Setting. Four medical clinics at 12 health centres in the Community of Valencia, Spain. Participants. There were 2051 attendances, with 284 CH and 407 AS involved. Main measurements and results. The information recorded by doctors in the CH and on the AS was validated by external observers who collected directly at the consultation the working day's entire care activity. The following was analysed: 1) in the CH, filling out of the "SOAP" form (basic info.); 2) on the AS, mean per professional per day of scheduled and on-demand patients, home visits and length of consultations; 3) information in the documents validated on the organisation of consultations; 4) analysis of care delivery according to how predictable it is and its clinical content; 5) clinical practice guidelines with validity and clinical usefulness indicators and reliability index (kappa). Conclusions. The documents validated do not properly reflect the reality of health care demand. There was an under-recording bias and validity problems that may limit their usefulness as sources of information for health care planning and management

ABSTRACT

Aortoenteric fistula (AEF) is an uncommon complication of abdominal aorta aneurysms. They are divided into two types: primary AEF due to a spontaneous communication of the lumen of an aortic aneurysm and an intestinal loop, usually the duodenum, and secondary AEF, which are more common and occur in patients who have undergone surgical repair of aneurysms with prosthetic implants. The most frequent presenting sign of AEF is upper gastrointestinal bleeding. Clinical suspicion is essential in the diagnostic approach to AEF and the most commonly used techniques for its diagnosis are endoscopy and computed tomography (CT). However, it is not unusual for the results of these techniques to be negative and for the diagnosis to be made at surgery. We present three cases of AEF (one primary) with distinct patterns of upper gastrointestinal bleeding, in which preoperative diagnosis was allowed by clinical and helical CT findings. We discuss the role of this technique in the diagnosis of this entity and describe the findings that allow AEF to be suspected or confirmed.

ABSTRACT

Las fístulas aortoentéricas son una complicación infrecuente de los aneurismas de aorta abdominal. Se dividen en 2 tipos: primarias, debidas a la comunicación espontánea de la luz de un aneurisma aórtico y un asa intestinal, principalmente el duodeno, y secundarias, más frecuentes que las anteriores, que ocurren en pacientes intervenidos de reparación quirúrgica de aneurismas con implantación de prótesis. El signo clínico de presentación más frecuente de las fístulas aortoentéricas es una hemorragia digestiva alta. La sospecha clínica supone un pilar fundamental en la aproximación diagnóstica de las fístulas aortoentéricas, y la endoscopia y la tomografía computarizada son las técnicas más usadas para su diagnóstico, aunque no es infrecuente que estas técnicas sean negativas y se realice el diagnóstico en la cirugía. Presentamos 3 casos de fístulas aortoentéricas (una de ellas primaria) con diferentes patrones de hemorragia digestiva alta, en los que el contexto clínico y los hallazgos de tomografía computarizada helicoidal permitieron su diagnóstico preoperatorio; discutimos el papel de esta técnica para el diagnóstico, y describimos los diferentes hallazgos que permiten sospechar o confirmar una fístula aortoentérica

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVES: To quantify with primary data the various kinds of consultations, the reasons for them and the diagnoses; to measure preventive actions and diagnoses using machines. To check the recording of the kinds of consultations and reasons for them in the clinical notes and on the doctor's work-sheet. DESIGN: Observation, cross-sectional and multi-centre study. Clinical care activity was measured on two January days in 2002. SETTING: All the health centres in Area 17 of the Community of Valencia. PARTICIPANTS: Representative sample of 2051 patients belonging to 20 primary care medical clinics from the above area, selected by sampling stratified by health centres. MAIN MEASUREMENTS: The activity of a working day was recorded and structured as follows: a) care activity (scheduling, age, sex, records code, kind of consultation and motive, specifying whether this was care activity, preventive or bureaucratic); b) activity caused by main reason for consultation (anamnesis, examination and further tests); c) plan of action (hygienic and dietary measures, medication and referrals); d) use of the clinical records according to SOAP sections; e) interruptions during the consultation. RESULTS: Study of care activity and its correlation with the actions recorded in the clinical record with primary data enables the reality of health care to be fairly faithfully perceived. These results highlighted the usefulness of clinical record audits to measure health-care delivery and to identify patterns of consumption of health resources, as a necessary pre-condition of more efficient primary care management.

ABSTRACT

Objetivo. Cuantificar con datos primarios los tipos, motivos y diagnósticos de consulta, la actividad preventiva y el diagnósticos de enfermedad por aparatos. Validar el registro en la historia clínica, y en la hoja de trabajo del médico (SIGAP), los tipos y motivos de consulta. Diseño. Estudio observacional, transversal y multicéntrico. Se recoge la actividad asistencial realizada en consulta durante dos días de enero de 2002.Emplazamiento. Todos los Centros de Salud del Área 17 de la Comunidad Valenciana. Participantes. Muestra representativa de 2.051 pacientes pertenecientes a 20 consultas médicas de un equipo de atención primaria de los centros anteriormente reseñados, seleccionadas por muestreo estratificado por centros de salud. Mediciones principales. Se recogió la actividad generada durante la jornada laboral estructurándola en: a) actividad asistencial (horario, edad, sexo, código de historia, tipo y motivo de consulta, especificando la actividad asistencial, preventiva o burocrática); b) actividad generada por el motivo principal de la visita (anamnesis, exploración y pruebas complementarias); c) plan de actividades (medidas higienicodietéticas, fármacos y derivaciones); d) uso de la historia clínica según apartados SOAP, y e) interrupciones en consulta. Discusión. El estudio de la actividad asistencial y su correlación con la actividad registrada en la historia clínica con datos primarios permite una aproximación fiel a nuestra realidad asistencial. Estos resultados pretenden poner de manifiesto, por un lado, la utilidad de las auditorías de historias clínicas como método de cuantificación de la actividad asistencial, así como detectar los patrones de consumo de recursos sanitarios, paso previo para la gestión de forma eficiente en atención primaria (AU)

ABSTRACT

Crohn's disease is characterized by chronic inflammation of the digestive tract which may be localized at any level. Nonetheless, esophageal disease is infrequent. Two cases of esophageal involvement in this disease in 2 young women with a history of previous involvement at an intestinal level are presented. Esophageal involvement by Crohn's disease should be suspected in any patient previously diagnosed with this disease who presents symptoms suggestive of esophagitis, using endoscopy with multiples biopsies of the affected areas and other of normal endoscopic appearance for diagnosis.
