ABSTRACT

It is widely acknowledged that inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is associated with a high prevalence of sexual dysfunction (SD). However, there is a notable paucity of specific literature in this field. This lack of information impacts various aspects, including the understanding and comprehensive care of SD in the context of IBD. Furthermore, patients themselves express a lack of necessary attention in this area within the treatment of their disease, thus creating an unmet need in terms of their well-being. The aim of this position statement by the Spanish Working Group on Crohn's Disease and Ulcerative Colitis (GETECCU) is to provide a review on the most relevant aspects and potential areas of improvement in the detection, assessment, and management of SD in patients with IBD and to integrate the approach to sexual health into our clinical practice. Recommendations are established based on available scientific evidence and expert opinion. The development of these recommendations by GETECCU has been carried out through a collaborative multidisciplinary approach involving gastroenterologists, gynecologists, urologists, surgeons, nurses, psychologists, sexologists, and, of course, patients with IBD.

ABSTRACT

Introduction: Several vaccines against SARS-CoV-2 are currently in use and are recommended in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients. Data are scarce about the gastroenterologists and IBD patient's acceptance of SARS-CoV-2 vaccines. The aim of the study was to evaluate the intention to get vaccination with SARS-CoV-2 vaccine among IBD patients from gastroenterologists and patient's perspective. Methods: An online anonymous survey was sent to 8000 patients from ACCU-Spain and 1000 members of the GETECCU. Three invitations were sent between October-December 2020. Descriptive analyses were performed, comparing physicians and patients responses by standard statistical analyses. Results: 144 gastroenterologists [63% female, mean age 43 years (SD 9.5)], and 1302 patients [72% female, mean age 43 years (SD 12)] responded to the survey. 95% of the physicians recommended SARS-CoV-2 vaccine for IBD patients and 87% consider that their vaccination strategies has not changed after the pandemic compared to 12% who considered that they currently refer more patients to vaccination. Regarding to IBD patients, only 43% of patients were willing to receive the vaccine and 43% were not sure. Male sex (p<0.001) and mesalazine treatment (p=0.021) were positively associated with SARS-CoV-2 vaccine acceptance. After multivariate analysis, only male sex was significantly associated with vaccination intent (OR=1.6; 95% confidence interval=1.2–2.0; p=0.001). Conclusions: Gastroenterologists and patient's perspective about SARS-CoV-2 are different. Future efforts to increase COVID-19 vaccine and decrease unfounded beliefs among IBD patients are needed.(AU)


Introducción: Actualmente en el mercado hay diferentes vacunas frente a SARS-CoV-2 que se recomiendan en pacientes con enfermedad inflamatoria intestinal (EII). No tenemos suficiente evidencia sobre la aceptación de este tipo de vacunas. El objetivo del estudio fue evaluar la aceptación de la vacuna frente a SARS-CoV-2 por parte de gastroenterólogos y pacientes con EII. Métodos: Se realizó una encuesta online a 8.000 pacientes de ACCU-España y 1.000 miembros de GETECCU. Se enviaron tres invitaciones entre octubre y diciembre de 2020. Se realizó un análisis descriptivo, comparando las respuestas de médicos y pacientes. Resultados: 144 gastroenterólogos (63% mujeres, edad media 43años [DE9,5]) y 1.302 pacientes (72% mujeres, edad media 43años [DE12]) respondieron a la encuesta. El 95% de los médicos recomendaban la vacuna frente a SARS-CoV-2 en pacientes con EII, el 87% consideraron que su estrategia de vacunación frente a diferentes vacunas no había cambiado tras la pandemia, frente al 12% que consideraban que actualmente remitían más pacientes a vacunación. En cuanto a los pacientes con EII, solo el 43% aceptaban la vacunación frente a SARS-CoV-2, frente al 43% que no estaban seguros. El sexo masculino (p<0,001) y el uso de mesalazina (p=0,021) se asoció de forma positiva con la aceptación de la vacuna. En el análisis multivariante, solo el sexo masculino fue asociado significativamente con la intención de vacunarse (OR=1,6; IC95%=1,2-2,0; p=0,001). Conclusiones: La perspectiva de gastroenterólogos y pacientes con EII con respecto a la vacunación frente a SARS-CoV-2 es diferente. Es necesario realizar esfuerzos para incrementar el uso de la vacuna y disminuir falsas creencias.(AU)

ABSTRACT

La malnutrición asociada a la enfermedad (MAE) está presente en un porcentaje muy elevado de los pacientes que ingresan en los hospitales y su repercusión es diversa y de mucha trascendencia. Objetivo: Desde la Unidad de Nutrición del Hospital Universitario la Paz, en colaboración con todos los miembros de la Comisión de Nutrición, nos planteamos implantar algún método de cribado en nuestro centro, que permitiese abarcar al mayor número posible de pacientes. Resultados: Debido al gran tamaño de nuestro centro, con cerca de 1500 camas, unido a una escasez de recursos humanos en nuestra unidad, optamos por utilizar el sistema de cribado CONUT (Control Nutricional) 100% automático y basado en parámetros analíticos, muy fácil de manejar, de bajo coste y cuya validez está confirmada, adaptándolo a nuestras necesidades. El método recoge información de las bases de datos del servicio de Admisión (filiación, edad, fecha) y del Laboratorio (albúmina, colesterol, linfocitos totales) y genera, en el informe de resultados de los análisis clínicos, la información sobre la alerta de riesgo nutricional de cada paciente, así como las recomendaciones nutricionales a seguir en función del riesgo detectado en cada caso. Para llegar su implantación se llevaron a cabo diferentes evaluaciones que nos permitieron conocer previamente la carga extra de trabajo que podría generar su implantación y nuestra capacidad para asumirlas, así como numerosas actividades formativas encaminadas a que los médicos y profesionales sanitarios del hospital asumieran cada vez más responsabilidades en el proceso del tratamiento nutricional de sus pacientes. Este sistema de cribado funciona desde Junio del año 2010 y detecta riesgo de desnutrición en el 32% de los pacientes evaluados. En general, sólo en los casos en los que la alerta corresponde a una situación de Alto riesgo nutricional, hecho que se da aproximadamente en el 10% del total, se requirió la intervención especializada por parte de la Unidad de Nutrición Clínica y Dietética. Posteriormente, conforme hemos ido detectando posibles causas que justificaran que el sistema no funcionase adecuadamente, el sistema de cribado ha sido objeto de diversas modificaciones. En este sentido, se ha realizado una evaluación retrospectiva en 233 pacientes ingresados en las plantas de Cirugía General y se ha documentado que aquellos que ingresan para cirugía programada y presentan una alarma alta o moderada de desnutrición (el 50% de los casos), la presencia de la misma aumenta significativamente los días de ingreso y la mortalidad. Conclusiones: La implantación del cribado nutricional ha favorecido un cambio en la cultura de nuestro centro con respecto a la malnutrición asociada a la enfermedad y la mayoría de nuestros profesionales, tanto médicos como enfermeras e incluso el equipo directivo, comprenden la importancia del proceso y saben que disponemos de herramientas y de conocimiento suficiente para indicar un soporte nutricional adecuado y precoz (AU)


Disease-Related Malnutrition (DRM) is present in a high percentage of patients admitted to hospital and their impact is diverse and of great importance. Objectives: Nutrition Department of University Hospital La Paz, in collaboration with all members of the Nutrition Committee, we decided to implement some method of screening in our centre which allowed us to detect as many patients with malnutrition risk as possible. Results: Due to the large size of our centre, with about 1,500 beds and the few human resources in our unit, we chose to use the CONUT system (Nutritional Control), a 100% automatic method based on analytical parameters, very easy to use, low cost and whose validity is confirmed, characteristics that fulfilled our needs. The method collects information from databases of Admission Service (affiliation, age, date) and Laboratory (albumin, cholesterol, total lymphocytes) and generates, in the report of analytical results, "alert" information about each patient's nutritional risk and also nutritional recommendations based on the risk identified. Prior to its implantation several evaluations were performed in order to allow us to better know the extra workload, as it was the main factor that could limit our ability to assume that screening method and also many training activities for doctors and hospital health professionals who were increasingly assuming responsibilities in the nutritional treatment of their patients. This screening system has been working from june of 2010 and it has detected risk of malnutrition in 32% of the evaluated patients. In general, only in those cases where the alert corresponded to a high-risk nutritional situation, which represents approximately 10% of the total, specialized intervention by the Clinical Nutrition Unit was required. Later, as we have detected some possible causes that justify the system does not work properly; the screening system has undergone several changes . In this sense, we have made a retrospective evaluation of 233 patients admitted to the General Surgery plants and documented that those entering for scheduled surgery, having a alarm of malnutrition (50% of cases), its presence increases significantly the hospital stay and mortality. Conclusions: The implementation of this nutritional screening method has led to a change in the ìnutritionafi culture of our centre respect to DRM in most of our professionals: doctors and nurses and even in the management team, so all of them understand the importance of the process and know about the available tools and knowledge to indicate an adequate and early nutritional support (AU)
