ABSTRACT

Introducción: Las Unidades de Cuidados Intensivos brindan atención a pacientes con condiciones clínicas que ponen su vida en peligro o con potencialidad a ello. Por ende, se requiere de personal altamente especializado, equipamiento y medicamentos; lo cual genera altos gastos. Objetivo: Describir los costos de la atención al paciente crítico atendido en la Unidad de Cuidados Intensivos. Métodos: Se realizó un estudio de evaluación económica parcial de descripción de costos. El universo estuvo conformado por 455 pacientes, se seleccionó una muestra de 155 mediante un muestreo aleatorio simple. La recolección de los datos se realizó a través de los registros de costos del Departamento de Contabilidad y Estadística, historia clínica, tarjeta y ficha de costo. Resultados: Los costos diarios por paciente fueron de 656,76 CUP. El departamento de radiología fue el de mayores cargos (23069,88 CUP), el complementario más indicado fue el hemograma (883). Los catéteres de abordaje venoso profundo constituyeron el instrumental más empleado y generó un gasto total de 144,26 CUP. Los electrólitos y los antimicrobianos constituyeron los grupos medicamentosos que mayores gastos generaron (49133,95 y 24896,08 CUP, respectivamente). Las hemodiálisis generaron un gasto de 142441 CUP. Conclusiones: Los estudios imagenológicos y de laboratorio necesarios para el diagnóstico y seguimiento, así como el empleo de antimicrobianos, electrólitos y equipamiento y procederes para la atención al paciente grave presentan elevados costos(AU)


Introduction: Intensive Care Units provide care to patients with clinical conditions that put their lives in danger or with potential to it. Therefore, highly specialized personnel, equipment and medicines are required; which generates high expenses. Objective: Describe the costs of care for critical patients treated in the Intensive Care Unit. Methods: A partial economic evaluation study of cost description was conducted. The overall sample was made up of 455 patients; a sample of 155 was selected by a simple random sampling. Data collection was carried out through the cost records of the Department of Accounting and Statistics, medical histories, card and cost sheet. Results: Daily costs per patient were 656.76 CUP. The radiology department was the one with the highest charges (23069.88 CUP), the most indicated complementary test was the blood count (883). Deep vein catheters were the most used instruments and generated a total expenditure of 144.26 CUP.

ABSTRACT

RESUMO Objetivo: aferir os custos diretos médios de curativos de úlceras vasculogênicas realizados por profissionais de enfermagem em pacientes atendidos por uma Unidade de Tratamento Integral de Ferida. Método: Pesquisa quantitativa, exploratório-descritiva, conduzida numa Unidade de Tratamento Integral de Ferida, localizada em Vitória da Conquista, Bahia - Brasil, em março, agosto e setembro de 2020. Calcularam-se os custos multiplicando-se o tempo despendido (cronometrado) pelos profissionais pelo custo da mão de obra direta, somando-se aos custos dos insumos. Análise de dados com estatística descritiva. Resultados: O custo direto médio total foi de US$11.90 (DP±10.79) para os curativos ambulatoriais (n=42), US$7.22 (DP±8.69) para os domiciliares (n=22) e US$3.10 (DP±2.57) para os hospitalares (n=11), com expressiva contribuição dos custos com terapia tópica: US$9.82 (DP±10.55), US$5.60 (DP±8.43) e US$1.30 (DP±0.22) respectivamente. Conclusão: os resultados poderão subsidiar a revisão dos insumos requeridos para os curativos de úlceras vasculogênicas, notadamente, das terapias tópicas e materiais/soluções.


ABSTRACT Objective: to assess the mean direct costs corresponding to vasculogenic ulcer dressings performed by Nursing professionals on patients treated at a Comprehensive Wound Care Unit. Method: A quantitative and exploratory-descriptive research study, conducted in March, August and September 2020 at a Comprehensive Wound Care Unit located in Vitória da Conquista, Bahia, Brazil. The costs were calculated multiplying the time spent (timed) by the professionals by the cost of direct labor, adding the costs of the inputs. Data analysis was performed by means of descriptive statistics. Results: The total mean direct costs were as follows: US$ 11.90 (SD±10.79) for outpatient dressings (n=42), US$ 7.22 (SD±8.69) for home dressings (n=22) and US$ 3.10 (SD±2.57) for hospital dressings (n=11), with a significant contribution from the costs of topical therapies: US$ 9.82 (SD±10.55), US$ 5.60 (SD±8.43) and US$ 1.30 (SD±0.22), respectively. Conclusion: the results may support a review of the inputs required for vasculogenic ulcer dressings, notably, regarding topical therapies and materials/solutions.

ABSTRACT

Objetivo: Evaluar los costos directos, el nivel de funcionamiento y la tasa de empleo reportada en una muestra aleatoria de personas con trastorno bipolar (TB) I y II que se atienden en forma ambulatoria. Métodos: Se analizaron y compararon los costos directos de los tratamientos ambulatorios de 165 pacientes con diagnóstico de trastorno bipolar tipo I y II (el costo mensual del tratamiento farmacológico, el número de consultas mensuales, el número de internaciones y días de internación). Se estimó el funcionamiento global y se consignó la condición laboral. Resultados: El 51,5% (n=85) de los pacientes presentaba diagnóstico de TB tipo I y 48,5% (n=80) de TB tipo II. El 40,6% de los pacientes se encontraba desocupado; el puntaje de GAF fue 73 ± 12,59. Los costos mensuales del tratamiento farmacológico fueron de $480 ± $350,4 por paciente sin diferencia entre los TB. Un mayor porcentaje de pacientes con TB I había tenido internaciones y recibía antipsicóticos, mientras que un mayor porcentaje de pacientes con TB II recibía antidepresivos y asistía al psicólogo. Discusión: Los pacientes con diagnóstico de TB I y TB II deben afrontar tratamientos farmacológicos que implican un costo promedio equivalente a un cuarto del ingreso mínimo en nuestro país, independientemente del tipo de trastorno bipolar que padezcan. Ambos grupos de pacientes presentaban una elevada tasa de desempleo y puntajes de funcionamiento global relativamente bajos.


Objective: To evaluate the direct costs, the functional level and the employment rate reported for a random sample of people with Bipolar Disorders (BD) I and II that are cared for as outpatients. Methods: The direct costs of outpatient treatment for 165 patients diagnosed with types I and II bipolar disorders were compared and analyzed (the monthly cost of pharmacological treatments, the number of consultations per month, the number of hospitalizations and the days spent in hospital). Global functioning was estimated and their employment was recorded. Results: 51,5% (N=85) of the patients had been diagnosed with type I BD and 48.5% (N=80) with BD type II. 40,6% of the patients were unemployed; the GAF score was 73 ± 12,59. Monthly costs of pharmacological treatment were $480 ± $350,4 per patient, with no difference between the type of BD. A larger percentage of type I BD patients had been hospitalized and received anti-psychotic drugs, whereas a greater percentage of BD II patients received anti-depressants and went to a psychologist. Discussion: Patients diagnosed with BDI and BD II must face pharmacological treatments that imply an average cost equal to one quarter of the minimum income in our country, independent of the type of bipolar disorder they suffer. Both groups of patients presented a high level of unemployment and relatively low global functioning scores.

ABSTRACT

O conhecimento dos custos das doenças imuno preveníveis, em especial os custos hospitalares da meningite pneumocócica, objeto de estudo desta tese, são de grande importância para os processos de tomada de decisão no que se refere a intervenções ou estratégias de saúde pública. O objetivo desta tese foi estimar os custos hospitalares relacionados à meningite pelo Streptococcus pneumoniae em crianças com idade até 13 anos (inclusive), na cidade de São José dos Campos, nos últimos dez anos. Foi realizado um estudo retrospectivo de custo-de-doença, a partir dos casos notificados de meningite pneumocócica ocorridos de janeiro de 1999 a dezembro de 2008. O cálculo da estimativa de custos hospitalares foi realizado de acordo com o método misto para a mensuração das quantidades dos itens de custos identificados e também para atribuição de valor aos itens consumidos, fazendo uso do micro-costing quando este era possível, e do gross-costing, como alternativa de viabilidade. Todos os custos foram calculados com os valores monetários referentes a novembro de 2009, e expressos em reais. Para análise das frequências e médias, foi usado o programa Epi-Info versão 3.5.1. Resultados: De 1999 a 2008, foram notificados ao núcleo municipal de vigilância epidemiológica 41 casos de meningite pneumocócica em menores com até 13 anos de idade (média = 4,8 anos), a maior parte meninos (65,6%; n=27). A prevalência variou entre 0,48 e 5,96%, ao longo do período de estudo, e o número de casos variou de 1 a 9 por ano. O tempo de internação variou entre 8 e 47 dias (média = 23,1 dias). Dez casos evoluíram para o óbito (24,4%; 95%IC = 12,4% - 40,3%)...


The knowledge of the costs of immuno-preventable diseases, mainly the hospital costs of pneumococcal meningitis, object of study of this thesis, are of great importance to the processes of decision making regarding public health interventions or strategies. The aim of this thesis was to estimate the direct hospital costs related to pneumococcal meningitis in children until 13 years of age, in the city of São José dos Campos, from January 1999 to December 2008. A retrospective cost-of-illness study was performed, from the notified cases of pneumococcal meningitis which happened in the period of study. The estimate calculation of the hospital costs was carried out according to the mixed method for the measurement of the quantities of the items of identified costs, and also to value attribution to the items consumed, making use of micro-costing when this was possible, and of the gross-costing, as a viability alternative. All costs were calculated according to the monetary values of November 2009, and in the Brazilian currency (Real). As for the analysis of frequencies and averages, the Epi-Info program, version 3.5.1, was used. Results: From 1999 to 2008, 41 cases of pneumococcal meningitis in minors until 13 years of age (average = 4.8 years of age), mostly boys (65.6%; n=27) were notified to the municipal nucleus of epidemiological vigilance. The prevalence varied between 0.48 and 5.96%, during the period of study, and the number of cases varied from 1 to 9 per year. The period of permanence in hospital varied between 8 and 47 days (average = 23.1 days). Ten cases resulted in death (24.4%; 95%IC = 12.4% - 40.3%)...
