ABSTRACT

INTRODUCCIÓN: Desde la entrada en vigor de la Ley 35/2015, los Institutos de Medicina Legal y Ciencias Forenses realizan periciales extrajudiciales a petición de particulares para la resolución de las reclamaciones por accidentes de circulación. El objetivo es analizar los aspectos médico-legales más relevantes de estas periciales. MATERIAL Y MÉTODO: Se trata de un estudio descriptivo retrospectivo de las periciales extrajudiciales en las divisiones de Barcelona y l'Hospitalet y Tarragona del Instituto de Medicina Legal y Ciencias Forenses de Cataluña durante los años 2016-2017. Los datos se obtuvieron de los registros de periciales extrajudiciales de ambas divisiones. RESULTADOS: Se realizaron 547 informes médico-forenses. Los accidentes fueron mayoritariamente causados por colisión por alcance entre turismos en trayectos urbanos. Las lesiones fueron en su mayoría de carácter leve, siendo la afectación cervical la más frecuente. En un alto porcentaje, se resolvió con tratamiento conservador en una media de 69 días, asociándose la aparición de secuelas leves en casi la mitad de los casos. El perjuicio estético se informó en el 14%. No hubo diferencias entre ambas divisiones. CONCLUSIÓN: Las periciales extrajudiciales resultan una fuente de información valiosa para la valoración de los perjuicios causados a las víctimas de accidentes de circulación. Como en otros estudios, la mayoría de lesiones son de carácter leve y se asocian a colisiones entre turismos, causando secuelas en la mitad de los casos. Parece que la vía extrajudicial es eficaz en las reclamaciones por accidentes de circulación, pero son necesarios más estudios para obtener una visión más completa


INTRODUCTION: Since the application of Law 35/2015, the Legal and Forensic Medicine Institutes provide extrajudicial expert advice at the request of individuals for the resolution of traffic accident claims. The objective is to analyze the most relevant medical-legal aspects of this expert advice. MATERIAL AND METHOD: This is a retrospective descriptive study of the extrajudicial expert advice in the divisions of Barcelona and l'Hospitalet, and Tarragona of the Catalonian Legal and Forensic Medicine Institute from 2016-2017. The data was obtained from the extrajudicial expert records of both divisions. RESULTS: 547 medical-forensic reports were made. The accidents were mainly caused by a rear collision between cars on urban routes. The injuries were mostly minor, with cervical involvement being the most frequent. A high percentage were resolved with conservative treatment in an average of 69 days, there were mild sequelae in almost half of the cases. Aesthetic damage was reported in 14%. There were no differences between the two divisions. CONCLUSION: Extrajudicial expert advice is a valuable source of information for assessing the damage caused to traffic accident victims. As in other studies, most injuries are mild and are associated with collisions between cars, causing sequelae in half of the cases. It seems that the extrajudicial route is effective in helping resolve traffic accident claims, but more studies are needed to obtain a more complete vision

ABSTRACT

Dentro de las importantes modificaciones que recoge la nueva tabla 2.A.1, Baremo médico, Clasificación y valoración de secuelas, nos encontramos con las que corresponden al Sistema digestivo, Capítulo VI, tanto por reordenación como por organización y valoración, mucho más lógicas y funcionales en todos esos aspectos. Desaparecen algunas secuelas raramente traumáticas, se precisan determinados requerimientos para tomar en consideración algunas secuelas, se incrementa el número de las mismas y se mantiene en este apartado las correspondientes a funciones exclusivamente digestivas (AU)

ABSTRACT

Temporary disability is the condition that workers face when, as the result of illness (common or professional) or accident (work-related or not), they are temporarily prevented from performing their work and require health care. The management of temporary disability is a medical act that involves (in addition to a complex clinical assessment) obvious social, occupational and financial connotations and requires continuing medical follow-up from doctors, as well as responses to medical-legal conflicts. The regulatory framework on the subject is extensive in the Spanish setting and highly diverse in the European setting. Beyond the regulatory framework, the repercussions of temporary disability are self-evident at all levels. Although determining temporary disability is a common medical act for practicing physicians, it is not exempt from risks or difficulties arising from the assessment itself and the characteristics of practicing medical care. Established medical-legal conflicts include the processing of health data and the requirements for transferring information related to workers' temporary disability to their company's medical services. The interest and usefulness demonstrated by the data obtained from forensic medicine for public health require the incorporation of these data into general healthcare information, as it could be essential to the surveillance of worker health. The recommendations established by medical societies, as good practice guidelines, are especially useful in this type of conflict.

ABSTRACT

La incapacidad temporal es la situación en la que se encuentra un trabajador que, a consecuencia de una enfermedad (común o profesional) o accidente (sea o no de trabajo), está impedido para desempeñar temporalmente su trabajo y requiere asistencia sanitaria. La gestión de la incapacidad temporal es un acto médico que implica, al margen de una compleja valoración clínica, evidentes connotaciones sociales, laborales y económicas, exigiendo al médico un seguimiento clínico continuo y dar respuesta a conflictos medicolegales. El marco regulatorio en la materia es extenso en el ámbito español y muy diverso en el europeo. Más allá del marco normativo, la repercusión de las incapacidades temporales es indiscutible a todos niveles. Aunque la determinación de una incapacidad temporal es un acto médico muy frecuente para los médicos asistenciales, no está exento de riesgos ni de dificultades derivados de la propia valoración y de las características del ejercicio de la medicina asistencial. Algunos conflictos medicolegales planteados son el tratamiento de los datos de salud o la obligatoriedad de trasladar a los servicios médicos de empresa la información relacionada con la incapacidad temporal del trabajador. El interés y utilidad que han demostrado los datos obtenidos desde la medicina forense para la salud pública obligan a incorporar a estos al común de la información sanitaria, pudiendo ser clave en la vigilancia de la salud de los trabajadores. Las recomendaciones establecidas por sociedades médicas, como códigos de buenas prácticas, son especialmente útiles en este tipo de conflictos (AU)
