ABSTRACT

Antecedentes: las mujeres menores de 40 años con cáncer de mama (CaMa) presentan características bio-psico-sociales únicas que ameritan ser atendidas y estudiadas. Objetivo: evaluara) la percepción de necesidades de apoyo en la atención (NAT) insatisfechas y nivel de resiliencia,b) la diferencia de NAT entre pacientes en tratamiento y sobrevivientes y c) la relación entre NAT y resiliencia, y su asociación con variables clínicas y sociodemográficas, respectivamente. Método: se estudiaron transversalmente a 150 mujeres jóvenes con CaMa en tratamiento y sobrevivientes, con una encuesta de NAT y una de resiliencia mexicanas. Resultados: la mediana de edad de las participantes fue de 36 años. Las necesidades menos satisfechas fueron las de sistema de salud e información. El grupo de tratamiento presentó más NAT comparado con las sobrevivientes (p=0,005). Se encontró que cuanto más NAT insatisfechas (globales, psicológicas, cuidado y apoyo, e información), menores valores en los dominios de resiliencia (p<0,005) en ambos grupos y por separado. Conclusiones: las condiciones externas (infraestructura, servicios de salud proporcionados y apoyo en seguridad social), habilidades propias (auto-confianza, estructura y organización) y/o recursos de apoyo externo (social y familiar) pudieron contribuir a que las pacientes percibieran pocas NAT insatisfechas. Los resultados resaltan la relevancia clínica de implementar intervenciones basadas en resiliencia


Background: Women with breast cancer (BC) under 40 years of age have unique and important bio-psycho-social characteristics that should be assessed. Objective: To evaluate: a) the unmet supportive care needs (SCN) perception and the level of resilience, b) the difference in SCN between patients in active treatment and survivors, c) the relationship between SCN and resilience, in addition to its relationship with clinical, and sociodemographic variables, respectively. Method: The unmet SCN and the level of resilience were cross-sectionally assessed in 150 young women with BC. Results: Participants had a median age of 36 years. The highest unmet needs were related to the healthcare system and information needs. The most unmet needs were reported by the group undergoing treatment compared to those in surveillance (p=.005). We found a significant and negative relationship between unmet SCN (global, psychological, care and support, and information) and resilience domains (P <.005), in both groups and separately. Conclusions: The perception of low unmet needs could be caused by external conditions (such as infrastructure, health services provided and social security support), abilities' perception (such as self-confidence, structure and organization) and/or support resources perceived (social and family). These results highlight the clinical relevance to address interventions based on resilience

ABSTRACT

El objetivo fue determinar la relación entre los factores de riesgo cardiovascular con la reactividad y recuperación cardiovascular de la presión arterial y la tasa de la frecuencia cardiaca en estudiantes universitarios normotensos. Participaron 110 estudiantes de licenciatura divididos en: a) casos (N= 52), con antecedente familiar de hipertensión, y b) con-troles (N= 58), sin antecedente familiar de hipertensión. Predominaron en ambos grupos antecedentes familiares de diabetes, alto consumo de alimentos con grasas, y estrés. El grupo de casos mostró características de ambición, impulsividad y competitividad. El análisis de regresión lineal múltiple de la reactividad de la presión arterial sistólica, diastólica y la tasa cardiaca ante el estresor emocional se asoció con sedentarismo, alto consumo de grasas y estrés. La presencia de factores de riesgo en universitarios sanos indica que se trata de una población proclive a padecer problemas cardiovasculares (AU)


The goal was to determine the relationship among cardiovascular risk factors with cardiovascular reactivity and recovery of blood pressure and heart rate on normotensive college students. 110 students were divided in: a) cases (N=52) with positive familiar antecedent of hypertension, and b) controls (N=58) with negative familiar antecedent of hypertension. Familiar antecedent of diabetes, high intake of fat food, and stress were found in both groups. Cases group showed ambition, impulsiveness and competitiveness. Multiple linear regression analysis of the systolic and diastolic blood pressure and heart rate reactivity to the emotional stressor indicated an association with sedentary, high intake of fat food and stress. Cardiovascular risk factors in college students indicate that it is a vulnerable group to suffer from cardiovascular diseases (AU)

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: In Mexico there are few studies about the psychological characteristics of the person that voluntary and in a complete sense assumes the role of responsible of a patient. The purpose of this study was to assess and compare the levels of burden, anxiety and depression of 56 caregivers of patients with chronic pain with the ones of 35 caregivers of terminally ill patients. METHODS: The study was conduced at the Chronic Pain and Palliative Medicine Department of the Instituto Nacional de Ciencias Médicas y Nutrición "Salvador Zubirán". We used the Spanish version of the Burden Interview and the Informal Primary Caregiver Health Survey. RESULTS: Both groups went over the cut off point of the Burden Scale even though no significative differences between groups were found nor in burden or in anxiety. The caregivers of terminal patients had more depression symptoms and a greater perception of the impact of the care activity in their mood. Positive correlations between burden and depression, depression and anxiety and burden and anxiety were found. CONCLUSIONS: All caregivers reported multiple depression symptoms--greater if they cared terminally ill patients--so, it may suggest that the patient's illness directly influences the depression symptoms of their caregivers. This study can help to develop intervention programs directed to help this population that is the principal support of the patient's treatment.

ABSTRACT

El objetivo fue determinar los factores de riesgo de la hipertensión arterial en estudiantes universitarios. Participaron 110 estudiantes normotensos divididos en: a) grupo de casos (N= 52), con antecedente familiar de hipertensión, y b) grupo de controles (N= 58), sin antecedente familiar de hipertensión. En los dos grupos se aplicaron el Cuestionario para detectar antecedentes familiares de hipertensión arterial y el Inventario de Factores de Riesgo de Hipertensión (IFRH) (Grijalva, 1992). Los factores de riesgo que predominaron en ambos grupos fueron antecedentes familiares de diabetes, alto consumo de alimentos con grasas, percepción del medio ambiente como estresante y personalidad estresante. Se discute sobre la presencia de factores de riesgo de la hipertensión arterial en los sujetos universitarios sanos la cual indica que se trata de una población proclive a padecer problemas cardiovasculares. Asimismo, la ausencia de factores de riesgo (por ejemplo, tabaquismo, alcoholismo) en la población universitaria también debe observarse como una oportunidad del psicólogo para prevenir enfermedades y controlar los factores de riesgo a través de, por ejemplo, promoción de la salud cardiovascular


The goal was to determine the hypertension risk factors and cardiovascular health in college students. 110 students were divided in: a) cases group (n=52) with hypertension family antecedent, and b) control group (n=58) without hypertension family antecedent. Both groups were evaluated with the Hypertension Family Antecedent Inventory and the Hypertension Risk Factors Inventory. The risk factors that were reported in both groups were: diabetes family antecedent, high intake of fat food, stressful environment perception, and stressful personality. It is discussed that he hypertension risk factors reported in the college students indicates that this is a vulnerable group to suffer from cardiovascular disease. Also, the absence of risk factors (v.gr. smoking, alcohol) in this group is an opportunity for the psychologist to prevent diseases and control the risk factors through, for example, the cardiovascular health promotion

ABSTRACT

Introducción: La enfermedad pulmonar obstructiva crónica (EPOC) es un trastorno progresivo que afecta la calidad de vida del paciente y su familia. Se considera que cerca del 75% de los pacientes con EPOC avanzada no pueden realizar actividades cotidianas y tienen que estar al cuidado de una persona. Objetivo: Conocer y describir el perfil psicosocial del cuidador primario informal (CPI) de pacientes con EPOC. Método: Estudio descriptivo, prospectivo y transversal realizado durante el periodo de julio a agosto de 2006. A los CPI que asistían al Servicio de Consulta Externa con su paciente con EPOC, previa cita se les aplicó el Cuestionario de Salud del Cuidador Primario Informal. Resultados: Se entrevistaron a 46 CPI. El 76.1 % eran del sexo femenino, con edad promedio de 50 años, 66.7% casadas, 32.6% eran esposas de los pacientes y el 32.6%> hijas. El 32.6% sabía leer y escribir, 52.2% se dedicaban al hogar y 84.8% compartían el domicilio con el paciente. Sólo el 37% reportó como poco estresante cuidar a su paciente y el 23.9% como moderadamente estresante; el 63% reporto síntomas de estrés como tristeza y/o depresión, 52.2% irritabilidad y enojo, 50% preocupación, miedo y ansiedad, 58.7% dificultad para dormir y descansar, 73.3% tensión muscular y el 45.7% cansancio. Conclusiones: El perfil psicosocial del CPI en este estudio es consistente con lo reportado en México y en otros países. Se destaca la figura del CPI como fundamental en el cuidado y atención del enfermo crónico, así como la necesidad de desarrollar protocolos que consideren la formación y atención del CPI.


Introduction: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) affects patient and patient's family quality of life. Nearly 75% of patients with COPD are unable to perform their usual daily chores without the help of a caretaker. Objective: To describe the psychosocial profile of the informal primary caretaker (IPC) of patients with COPD in our socioeconomic environment. Method: Prospective, descriptive, horizontal study during July and August 2006; I PCs arriving to the outpatient clinic with their patients with COPD were submitted to The Health's IPC Questionary. Results: Forty six IPCs were interviewed; 76.1% were female, 66.7% were married, 32.6% were patients' wives, 32.6% daughters, 67.4% were illiterate, 52.2% were housewives and 84.8% shared the home with the patient, 50% had not seen a physician during the previous six months. Only 37% reported light and 23.9% moderate stress during their caretaking chores; 63% reported sadness and/or depression, 52.2% anger and irritability, 50% fear and anxiety, 58.7% rest and sleep difficulties, 73.3% muscular tension and 45.7% fatigue. Conclusions: The psychosocial profile of the IPC in our study is consistent with that of reports from México and other countries. The importance of the IPC as a caretaker of patients with COPD is underscored, as well as the need to develop protocols to train and help the needs of the IPC.
