ABSTRACT

INTRODUCCIÓN: En el ańo 2009 se crea en nuestro centro una Consulta de Patología Importada. El objetivo de este trabajo es conocer su aportación en cuanto a capacidad, calidad asistencial y docencia ofrecida. PACIENTES Y MÉTODOS: Estudio retrospectivo entre 2009 y 2011 donde se analizan: a) desarrollo del conocimiento mediante la valoración de protocolos y publicaciones realizadas, así como la docencia impartida; y b) capacidad y calidad asistencial ofrecida mediante el análisis de los pacientes atendidos, la adecuación a los protocolos y la accesibilidad a la consulta. Se clasifican los pacientes atendidos en 3 grupos: grupo 1 cribado del paciente inmigrante; grupo 2 consulta tras viaje a zona tropical o subtropical; grupo 3 cribado de enfermedad importada de transmisión vertical. RESULTADOS: Se han desarrollado y difundido en la web de la unidad 6 protocolos y 5 publicaciones científicas. Se han atendido 316 pacientes: 191 incluidos en el grupo 1 (29 adoptados y 162 inmigrantes); 57 en el grupo 2 (94,7% Visiting Friends and Relatives y 81,5% sin consulta previaje), que acudieron principalmente por clínica gastrointestinal (52,6%) y fiebre (43,8%); y 68 en el grupo 3 con riesgo de infección importada de transmisión vertical (62 Trypanosoma cruzi, 1 virus linfotrópico T humano y 5 Plasmodium spp.). La adecuación global a los protocolos disponibles fue del 77,1%. DISCUSIÓN: Las unidades de patología infecciosa deben adaptarse a la realidad de la población que atienden, siendo flexibles en su estructura. Es imprescindible la valoración periódica de la calidad asistencial ofrecida, así como la valoración en la rentabilidad de los estudios complementarios a realizar (AU) - es INTRODUCTION: An Imported Diseases Clinic was created in the hospital in 2009.

Group 1: immigrant patient screening, group 2: patient consultation after tropical or sub-tropical travel, group 3: screening of vertical transmission of imported disease. RESULTS: Six protocols have been developed and disseminated on the unit website, as well as 5 scientific publications. A total of 316 patients were evaluated: 191 included in group 1 (29 Adopted and 162 Immigrants), 57 in group 2 (94.7% Visiting Friends and Relatives and 81.5% without a pre-travel consultation). They consulted due to, gastrointestinal symptoms (52.6%) and fever (43.8%), with 68 included in group 3 at risk of imported disease by vertical transmission (62 Trypanosoma cruzi, 1 Human T Lymphotropic Virus and 5 Plasmodium spp.). The overall adherence to the protocols was about 77.1%. DISCUSSION: Infectious Diseases Units must adapt to the reality of the population and be flexible in its structure. Periodic assessment of the quality of care offered is essential, as well as an evaluation on the need for additional studies
