Redictive variables of compliance with preventive Behaviors during the covid-19 pandemic / Variables predictoras del cumplimiento de medidas preventivas durante la pandemia de COVID-19

Con la propagación de la COVID-19 en todo el mundo, los comportamientos preventivos asumieron un papel clave en la contención del virus. En España, el Ministerio de Salud aprobó un confinamiento de la población de 14 semanas a nivel nacional, del 15 de marzo al 20 de junio de 2020. Aproximadamente un mes después del confinamiento, del 10 al 16 de abril, el presente estudio analizó la percepción de riesgo en función de la edad y el sexo y su relación con el cumplimiento de la conducta preventiva frente a la propagación de la COVID-19. La muestra estuvo constituida por 535 participantes (67,9% mujeres) distribuidos en dos grupos de edad: (42,4%) clasificados como jóvenes (18-23 años) y (57,5%) como adultos (40-65 años). Los datos se recopilaron a través de un cuestionario en línea ad hoc. Los resultados indicaron que la percepción de temor/ansiedad y la edad predecían la adopción de medidas preventivas. Nuestro estudio concluye que los jóvenes y las personas que experimentan menos emociones de temor/ansiedad ante la COVID-19 adoptan menos comportamientos preventivos para la salud.(AU)

With the spread of COVID-19 worldwide, preventive behaviors took on a key role in virus containment. In Spanish, the Ministry of Health approved a 14-week nationwide population lockdown from March 15th to June 20th, 2020. Approximately one month after the lockdown, from April 10th to 16th, the present study analyzed the risk perception based on age and gender and its relationship with preventive behavior compliance against the spread of COVID-19. The sample was constituted by 535 participants (67.9% women) distributed in two age groups: (42.4%) classified as young people (18-23 years) and (57.5%) as adults (40-65 years). Data were co-llected through an ad hoc online questionnaire. The results indicated that the perception of fear/anxiety and age predicted the adoption of preventive behaviors. Our study concludes that young people and people who experience less fear or anxiety of COVID-19 adopt fewer preventive health behaviors.(AU)

Characterisation of the management of patients with migraine in the primary care setting in Spain. Analysis of the results of the European My-LIFE anamnesis project.

INTRODUCTION: Migraine affects more than 4.5 million people in Spain, resulting in a considerable socioeconomic impact. Although national and international guidelines have been published, the management of patients with migraine, especially those with chronic migraine, is inadequate. SUBJECTS AND METHODS: We conducted a survey among 40 primary care (PC) physicians in Spain as part of a European project involving 201 physicians from 5 countries. RESULTS: Most participants issued diagnoses of episodic migraine and chronic migraine (93% vs 65%); 82.5% indicated that they did not refer these patients to specialists, and 100% of PC physicians stated that they were responsible for patient follow-up. The main tools used in PC for diagnosis and follow-up were clinical interviews, medical histories, and the patient diaries. Our data revealed that the treatments prescribed were not in accordance with the national and international guidelines. Participants who did not refer patients estimated that only 48% of patients received preventive treatment, and that the assessment of efficacy was based on patient perception. Seventy percent of respondents indicated a need for migraine training. Finally, 100% of participants considered that a guide for medical history taking and referral would be essential or useful for the management of migraine in PC. CONCLUSIONS: The survey results revealed a need for training and guidance in PC to improve the diagnosis and management of patients with migraine, particularly chronic migraine.

Diagnosis and treatment of trigeminal neuralgia: Consensus statement from the Spanish Society of Neurology's Headache Study Group.

INTRODUCTION: Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is a chronic neuropathic pain disorder affecting one or more branches of the trigeminal nerve. Despite its relatively low global prevalence, TN is an important healthcare problem both in neurology departments and in emergency departments due to the difficulty of diagnosing and treating the condition and its significant impact on patients' quality of life. For all these reasons, the Spanish Society of Neurology's Headache Study Group has developed a consensus statement on the management of TN. DEVELOPMENT: This document was drafted by a panel of neurologists specialising in headache, who used the terminology of the International Headache Society. We analysed the published scientific evidence on the diagnosis and treatment of TN and establish practical recommendations with levels of evidence. CONCLUSIONS: The diagnosis of TN is based on clinical criteria. Pain attributed to a lesion or disease of the trigeminal nerve is divided into TN and painful trigeminal neuropathy, according to the International Classification of Headache Disorders, third edition. TN is further subclassified into classical, secondary, or idiopathic, according to aetiology. Brain MRI is recommended in patients with clinical diagnosis of TN, in order to rule out secondary causes. In MRI studies to detect neurovascular compression, FIESTA, DRIVE, or CISS sequences are recommended. Pharmacological treatment is the initial choice in all patients. In selected cases with drug-resistant pain or poor tolerance, surgery should be considered.

Impact of the “Zero Resistance” program on acquisition of multidrug-resistant bacteria in patients admitted to Intensive Care Units in Spain. A prospective, intervention, multimodal, multicenter study / Impacto del Proyecto “Resistencia Zero” en la adquisición de bacterias multirresistentes en pacientes ingresados en Unidades de Cuidados Intensivos en España. Estudio de intervención, multimodal y multicéntrico

Objective To assess the impact of a multimodal interventional project (“Zero Resistance”) on the acquisition of multidrug-resistant bacteria (MDR-B) during the patient’s ICU stay. Design Prospective, open-label, interventional, multicenter study. Setting 103 ICUs. Patients Critically ill patients admitted to the ICUs over a 27-month period. Interventions Implementation of a bundle of 10 recommendations to prevent emergence and spread of MDR-B in the ICU. Main variable of interest Rate of patients acquiring MDR-B during their ICU stay, with differentiation between colonization and infection. Results A total of 139,505 patients were included. In 5409 (3.9%) patients, 6020 MDR-B on ICU admission were identified, and in 3648 (2.6%) patients, 4269 new MDR-B during ICU stay were isolated. The rate of patients with MDR-B detected on admission increased significantly (IRR 1.43, 95% CI 1.31–1.56) (p<0.001) during the study period, with an increase of 32.2% between the initial and final monthly rates. On the contrary, the rate of patients with MDR-B during ICU stay decreased non-significantly (IRR 0.93, 95% CI 0.83–1.03) (p=0.174), with a 24.9% decrease between initial and final monthly rates. According to the classification into colonization or infection, there was a highly significant increase of MDR-B colonizations detected on admission (IRR 1.69, 95% CI 1.52–1.83; p<0.0001) and a very significant decrease of MDR-B-infections during ICU stay (IRR 0.67, 95% CI 0.57–0.80, p<0.0001). Conclusions The implementation of ZR project-recommendations was associated with a significantly reduction an infection produced by MDR-B acquired during the patient’s ICU stay (AU)

Preventive and abortive treatment of migraine with traditional drugs. The state of the art / Tratamento preventivo e abortivo da enxaqueca com medicamentos tradicionais. O Estado da arte

Introduction: Migraine is a chronic neurological disease, with a prevalence of 15.2% in Brazil. It is 2.2 times more prevalent in women, predominantly in the 18-50 age group. Its pathophysiological mechanism is still not completely understood. Possibly headache attacks and symptoms are associated with cortical spreading depression, the trigeminovascular system, neurogenic inflammation, vasodilation and genetic vulnerability. Objective:This is a narrative review of preventive and abortive treatment of migraine. Comment: Migraine treatment is based on three pillars: patient education, treatment of the disease itself or prevention of attacks, and acute treatment of headache attacks. The therapeutic classes of traditional drugs used in migraine prevention are beta-blockers, tricyclic antidepressants, calcium channel antagonists or blockers, and anticonvulsant neuromodulators. Specific drugs used in the treatment of headache attacks are triptans or serotonergic 5-HT1B/1D receptor agonists, ditans or 5-HT1F receptor agonists, and gepants or CGRP receptor antagonists. Conclusion: Traditional drugs used in the preventive or abortive treatment of migraine are considered to be effective. Through modulation of the disease mechanisms, there is a reduction in the frequency, intensity and duration of headache attacks, and also in the disability caused by the headache. All this to improve the quality of life of patients. The therapeutic classes of traditional drugs used in migraine prevention are beta-blockers, tricyclic antidepressants, antagonists or blockers of calcium channels and anticonvulsant neuromodulators. Specific drugs used in the treatment of headache attacks are triptans or serotonergic 5-HT1B/1D receptor agonists,ditans or 5-HT1F receptor agonists, and gepants or CGRP receptor antagonists.

Introdução: A enxaqueca é uma doença neurológica crônica, com prevalência de 15,2% no Brasil. É 2,2 vezes mais prevalente em mulheres, predominantemente na faixa etária de 18 a 50 anos. Seu mecanismo fisiopatológico ainda não está completamente esclarecido. Possivelmente, os ataques e sintomas de dor de cabeça estão associados à depressão alastrante cortical, ao sistema trigeminovascular, à inflamação neurogênica, à vasodilatação e à vulnerabilidade genética. Objetivo: Esta é uma revisão narrativa do tratamento preventivo e abortivo da enxaqueca. Comente: O tratamento da enxaqueca baseia-se em três pilares: educação do paciente, tratamento da própria doença ou prevenção de crises e tratamento agudo das crises de cefaleia. As classes terapêuticas de medicamentos tradicionais utilizados na prevenção da enxaqueca são betabloqueadores, antidepressivos tricíclicos, antagonistas ou bloqueadores dos canais de cálcio e neuromoduladores anticonvulsivantes. Os medicamentos específicos utilizados no tratamento de crises de dor de cabeça são triptanos ou agonistas do receptor serotoninérgico 5-HT1B/1D, ditans ou agonistas do receptor 5-HT1F e gepants ou antagonistas do receptor CGRP. Conclusão: Os medicamentos tradicionais utilizados no tratamento preventivo ou abortivo da enxaqueca são considerados eficazes. Através da modulação dos mecanismos da doença, há redução na frequência, intensidade e duração das crises de cefaleia, e também na incapacidade causada pela cefaleia. Tudo isso para melhorar a qualidade de vida dos pacientes. As classes terapêuticas de medicamentos tradicionais utilizados na prevenção da enxaqueca são betabloqueadores, antidepressivos tricíclicos, antagonistas ou bloqueadores dos canais de cálcio e neuromoduladores anticonvulsivantes. Os medicamentos específicos utilizados no tratamento de crises de cefaleia são triptanos ou agonistas do receptor serotoninérgico 5-HT1B/1D, ditans ou agonistas do receptor 5-HT1F e gepants ou antagonistas do receptor CGRP.

Problems and strategies for the prevention of ankle injuries in soccer / Problemas e estratégias para a prevenção de lesões do tornozelo no futebol / Problemas y estrategias para la prevención de lesiones de tobillo en el fútbol

ABSTRACT Introduction: The most significant reasons for the frequent ankle injuries in soccer players are the great rivalry and the multiple efforts required by the sport. Objective: Explore the actual scenario of sports injuries in the ankle joint in soccer players, raising adequate prevention strategies. Methods: 22 professional soccer players were randomly divided into experimental and control groups. A controlled experiment lastingsix6 weeks was developed. The experimental group added complementary ankle training in the daily training, while the control group had no changes, according to the usual training plan. Rear (PL) and frontal (AT) balance indexes, functional movement assessment (FMS,) and ankle injury cause (CAI) were collected, analyzed, and compared before and after the intervention. Results: After training, the experimental group's PL score increased from 106.81±5.33 to 117.69±6.44; AT score increased from 61.94±6.17 to 70.36±5.37; CAI score increased from 22.33±3.58 to 25.38±3.18. Total FMS test score increased from 15.36±1.38 to 18.84±1.99, with trunk flexions standing out (from 2.10±0.43 to 2.57±0.37). On the other hand, the changes in the control group were not statistically significant. Conclusion: The presented complementary ankle training effectively prevented injuries in soccer players and can be applied to reduce sports complications in players in training.

La salud desde la justicia ecológica: de la regeneración de la naturalezasalvaje a la prevención de futuraspandemias / Health from ecological justice: from the regeneration of wild nature to the prevention of future pandemics

Este artículo trata de explorar una perspectiva filosófica de la salud vinculada a la restauración de la naturaleza salvaje, especial-mente a raíz de algunos aprendizajes que podemos extraer de la propagación de enfermedades zoonóticas recientes. En el primerapartado se presenta la relación que ha mantenido la pandemia de la COVID-19 con la justicia social, aventurando la tesis de que lajusticia ecológica es una dimensión que debería ser incorporada con mayor atención. Para justificar esto, en los siguientes apartadosse propone, primero a nivel conceptual, abordar un concepto de salud que sea plural, dinámico e interdependiente, y, luego a nivelpragmático, tomar como referencia la casuística que muestra una correlación inversa entre la presencia de biodiversidad salvaje enun territorio y el contagio por zoonosis. En suma, estos pensamientos pueden llevar a justificar deberes anticipatorios de futuraspandemias y a una responsabilidad por la salud global que merecen ser analizados desde la ética.(AU)

The aim of this article is to explore a philosophical perspective on health linked to the restoration of wild nature, especially on thebasis of some lessons that can be drawn from the spread of recent zoonotic diseases. The first section presents the relationship thatthe COVID-19 pandemic has maintained with social justice, venturing the thesis that ecological justice is a dimension that should beincorporated with deeper attention. To justify this, the following sections propose, first at the conceptual level, to approach a conceptof health that is plural, dynamic and interdependent, and, then at the pragmatic level, to take as a reference the casuistry that showsan inverse correlation between the presence of wild biodiversity in a territory and contagion by zoonoses. In sum, these thoughtsmay lead to justify anticipatory duties for future pandemics and a responsibility for global health that deserve to be analyzed froman ethical point of view.(AU)

Las tensiones de los modelos de atención a la salud en las trayectorias de padecimiento de personas con factores de riesgo para enfermedades crónicas no transmisibles.

OBJETIVO: describir los elementos que caracterizan los modelos de atención a partir de las trayectorias del padecimiento de personas con factores de riesgo para Enfermedades Crónicas No Transmisibles (ECNT) que asistieron a tres centros de salud de la Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires. MATERIAL Y MÉTODOS: estudio de carácter cualitativo y exploratorio. Se realizaron entrevistas semiestructuradas basadas en el modelo de Trayectoria del Padecimiento Crónico. Estas estuvieron dirigidas a 15 personas que participaron en tratamientos ofrecidos en tres centros de salud de la Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires. Se analizaron los datos obtenidos para describir los modelos de atención utilizados por las personas. RESULTADOS: las trayectorias del padecimiento evidenciaron la existencia de dos grandes modelos de atención que reflejan las tensiones propias del sistema de salud. Por un lado, un modelo de atención tradicional que reproduce una lógica curativa y biologicista de la salud, cuyo abordaje individualista ejerce presión sobre las personas, dificultando la continuidad del tratamiento. Y por el otro, un modelo de atención integral, que incluye una perspectiva preventivo-promocional y entiende las dimensiones biopsicosociales como constitutivas de la salud. Este último incorpora la ayuda mutua para generar compromiso y participación en las personas para la gestión de su padecimiento. CONCLUSIONES: el compromiso y la ayuda mutua se identificaron como facilitadores para la realización de acciones de cuidado de la salud. Se destaca que reflexionar sobre las tensiones de los diferentes modelos de atención de las ECNT y sus efectos subjetivos en las personas permite repensar las estrategias para su abordaje.

Evolucion del control metabolico en niños y adolescentes con diabetes tipo 1, luego del aislamiento implementado durante la pandemia por Covid-19 / Evolution of metabolic control in children and adolescents with tipe 1 diabetes, isolation implemented during the covid-19 pandemic

Introducción: la cuarentena adoptada durante la pandemia por COVID-19 significó grandes cambios en el cuidado de los pacientes con diabetes, pudiendo afectar el control metabólico. Objetivos: evaluar si existieron modificaciones en el control metabólico en menores de 18 años con diabetes tipo 1, seguidos en el Servicio de Nutrición y Diabetes del Hospital General de Niños Pedro de Elizalde (HGNPE), luego de las medidas de aislamiento social implementadas durante la pandemia por COVID-19. Estimar la frecuencia de complicaciones agudas y la variación del puntaje Z de Índice de masa corporal (IMC). Materiales y métodos: estudio observacional, longitudinal, retrospectivo. Se incluyeron pacientes de 1 a 18 años con diabetes tipo 1 de más de un año de evolución, con seguimiento regular en el HGNPE, que hayan sido evaluados, con determinación de hemoglobina glicosilada, entre diciembre de 2019 y marzo de 2020 (precuarentena). De estos pacientes, aquellos que asistieron a un control posterior, entre diciembre de 2020 y marzo de 2021, fueron considerados para un análisis comparativo.

Introduction: the lock down during the COVID-19 pandemic meant great changes in the care of patients with diabetes, which could affect metabolic control. Objectives: to assesse whether there were changes in metabolic control in children under 18 years of age with type 1 diabetes followed up in the Nutrition and Diabetes Service of the Pedro de Elizalde Children's General Hospital (HGNPE), after the social isolation measures implemented during the COVID-19 pandemic and estimate the frequency of acute complications and the variation of the Z-score of Body Mass Index (BMI). Materials and methods: longitudinal, retrospective, observational study. Patients aged 1 to 18 years old with type 1 diabetes of more than one year of evolution, with regular follow-up in the HGNPE, who had been evaluated, with determination of glycosylated hemoglobin, between December 2019 and March 2020 (pre-quarantine) and between December 2020 and March2021. Of these patients, those who attended a subsequent control between December 2020 and March 2021 were considered for a comparative analysis. Results: 88 patients were included, of which 59 underwent a control in the second period. The initial HbA1c was 8,8% (IIC 25-75 = 7,42-9,4) and the subsequent one was 8,3% (IIC 25-75 = 7,2-9,95), the z-score of initial BMI was 0,35 ± 1,02 and the subsequent one was 0,37 ± 0,97, with non-significant differences in both cases. 15% (n = 9) of the patients had acute complications. Conclusion: no significant changes were found in HbA1c and BMI z-score between the periods compared

El cuidado real frente a la vulnerabilidad del estudiante de enfermería / Real health care in the face of the vulnerability of the nursing student

Introducción: El intercambio de experiencias con pares en la práctica diaria permite al estudiante el aprendizaje del cuidado de enfermería. Objetivo: Comprender las representaciones sociales del cuidado, construidas desde el cotidiano del estudiante de enfermería mexicano. Materiales y métodos: Estudio cualitativo, basado en la teoría de la representación social en 46 estudiantes que realizaban prácticas clínicas, a quienes se les aplicó entrevista semiestructurada, que se analizó a través de la agrupación de categorías empíricas que sustentan la composición de los resultados subsecuentes, comparando los datos con relatos de los informantes. Resultados: La concepción del proceso de cuidado se estructura con rangos que representan lo social de los entrevistados durante su formación, la cual los torna vulnerables en dicho proceso. Las vivencias se construyen y reconstruyen en su afán por descubrir sus experiencias en el cuidar para dar respuesta a los desafíos del ser. Sin embargo, en estas experiencias se altera su mundo, irrumpiendo la paz mental. Conclusiones: Los procesos de interacción posiciona al estudiante frente al mundo social del cuidado a partir de bases filosóficas, a fin de reflexionar con su ser y hacer, acción que orienta sus conductas en el cotidiano del cuidado del otro.

Introduction: The exchange of daily practicing experiences with peers is useful for students to learn about nursing care. Objective: To understand the social representations of health care that are constructed from the daily life experiences of the Mexican nursing student. Materials and methods: A qualitative study based on the social representation theory with 46 students who carried out clinical practices. A semi-structured interview was applied, which was analyzed through grouping of empirical categories that support the composition of the subsequent results, comparing the data with reports from the participants. Results: The conception of the health care process is structured with ranges that represent the social aspects of the students during their training, which in turn makes them vulnerable. The experiences are constructed and re-constructed as a consequence of the students' eagerness to discover their experiences in health care in order to respond to their challenges. However, these experiences affect the students' world, disrupting their peace of mind. Conclusions: Interaction processes position students in the face of the social world of health care based on philosophical bases in order to reflect with their being and doing, an action that guides their behavior in the daily care of the other.

Elos Program's Efficacy Evaluation in School Management of Child Behavior: A Non-Randomized Controlled Trial / Avaliação da Eficácia do Programa Elos no Manejo Escolar do Comportamento Infantil: Um Ensaio Controlado Não Randomizado

Abstract The Elos Program resulted from a Brazilian cultural adaptation of the Good Behavior Game, a preventive strategy for classroom management to reduce aggressive and disruptive behaviors. The goal is to discuss the Elos Program's efficacy during its implementation in 16 elementary Brazilian public schools in two cities in 2016. The design was a non-randomized controlled trial with 80 classes in each group, experimental and control, involving 1,731 students. The study used the Generalized Estimating Equation model to verify the program's effect. Elos seemed to be effective in reducing aggressiveness and disruptive behavior in boys. These results are aligned with others GBG international studies and suggest that, after a randomized trial, the program would be ready to be disseminated in Brazil.

Tratamiento preventivo en migraña: anticuerpos monoclonales contra la vía del péptido relacionado con el gen de la calcitonina / Migraine preventive treatment: monoclonal antibodies against calcitonine gene related peptide

Resumen La migraña es un trastorno muy prevalente que afecta a alrededor del 15% de los sujetos adultos. Es clasificada por la Organización Mundial de la Saludentre los primeros puestos como causa de discapacidad. Los tratamientos preventivos habituales hasta ahora derivan de otras indicaciones y por serendipia se utilizan en prevención de migraña: betabloqueantes, drogas antiepilépticas, antidepresivos tricíclicos, bloquean tes de canales de calcio, toxina botulínica. Todas ellas han mostrado eficacia similar al 50% en reducir el número de episodios migrañosos pese a efectos secundarios indeseados. Durante los últimos años, se ha evaluado la eficacia y seguridad de los anticuerpos monoclonales (AM) que actúan sobre la vía del péptido relacionado con el gen de la calcitonina (CGRP) en migraña. Dicho péptido es relevante en la activación del dolor en territorio meníngeoy es mediado por terminales nerviosas trigeminales una vez activado el proceso migrañoso. Su dosaje en crisis migrañosas ha sido elevado en diversos estudios y su neutralización/bloqueo, redunda en alivio del dolor. Los anticuerpos monoclonales erenumab, galcanezumab, fremanezumab, eptinezumab aprobados en el mercado EE.UU./Europa desde 2018 y tras varios trabajos de Fase III y abiertos de extensión, mostraron clara seguridad yeficacia y están presentes en nuestro medio desde mediados de 2019. Desarrollamos la racionalidad e indicaciones de uso de los mismos.

Abstract Migraine is a very prevalent disorder that is estimated to affect about 10-15% of adult subjects. Ac cording to the World Health Organization migraine is one of the first causes of disability. Traditional preventive treatments discovered by serendipity include Beta blockers, antinconvulsants drugs, calcium channel blockers, tricyclic antidepressants and onabotulinum A and offer about 50% efficacy after controlled placebo trials and real life use. Because of lack of adherence and adverse events, there is a loss of beneficial sustain on these treat ments. Recently, the efficacy and safety of monoclonal antibodies (MA) that act on the peptide pathway related to the calcitonin gene (CGRP) has been evaluated in migraine, being the first specific tailored treatment on one of the multiple targets on migraine. This family of drugs: erenumab, galcanezumab, fremanezumab, eptinezumab, finished Fase III, extensions trials and many of them are in the market approved since 2018.Since 2019 are available in Argentina. We will describe the rationale for the prescription of this family of new drugs for migraine.

Análisis del valor predictivo de los criterios de aislamiento preventivo en una unidad de cuidados intensivos / Analysis of the predictive value of preventive isolation criteria in the intensive care unit

Objetivo Evaluar la precisión diagnóstica de los criterios empleados para detectar al paciente realmente portador de microrganismos multirresistentes (MMR). Diseño Estudio prospectivo, observacional de mayo de 2014 a mayo de 2015. Ámbito Unidad de cuidados intensivos polivalente. Pacientes Cohorte de pacientes ingresados de forma consecutiva que cumplían los siguientes criterios de aislamiento preventivo basados en el proyecto «Resistencia Zero»: hospitalización de más de 4 días en los últimos 3 meses («hospital»); antibioterapia durante una semana en el último mes («antibiótico»), pacientes institucionalizados o en contacto con cuidados sanitarios («institución o cuidado»); portador de MMR los últimos 6 meses («MMR previo»). Variables Variables demográficas, resultados de los cultivos obtenidos con presencia o no de MMR y tiempo de aislamiento. Se realizó un análisis multivariable con regresión logística múltiple entre cada uno de los factores de riesgo y el que el paciente fuera portador de MMR. Resultados Durante el periodo de estudio ingresaron 575 pacientes y cumplieron los criterios de aislamiento un 28%. De los 162 pacientes con criterios 51 (31%) eran portadores de MMR y de los que no cumplían criterios 29 (7%) sí que eran portadores. En el análisis multivariable la única variable asociada de forma independiente con el ser portador fue «MMR previo», con una OR 12,14 (IC 95%: 4,24–34,77). Conclusiones El único criterio que se asoció de forma independiente con la capacidad de detectar los pacientes con MMR al ingreso en la UCI fue haber presentado un «MMR previo». (AU)

Objective To assess the diagnostic accuracy of the criteria used to detect patients carrying multiresistant microorganisms (MRMs). Design A prospective observational study was carried out from May 2014 to May 2015. Setting Polyvalent Intensive Care Unit. Patients A cohort of consecutively admitted patients meeting the following criteria for preventive isolation according to the “Zero Resistance” project: hospital length of stay>4 days in the last three months (“hospital”); antibiotherapy during one week in the last month (“antibiotic”); institutionalized patients or recurrent contact with healthcare (“institution or care”); MRM carrier in the last 6 months (“previous MRM”). Variables Demographic data, culture results and isolation time. A multivariate analysis was performed using multiple logistic regression between each of the risk factors and patient MRM carrier status. Results During the study period, 575 patients were admitted, of which 28% met the isolation criteria (162). Fifty-one (31%) were MRM carriers. Of the patients who did not meet the criteria, 29 (7%) were carriers. In the multivariate analysis, the only variable independently associated to carrier status was “previous MRM”, with OR=12.14 (95%CI 4.24-34.77). Conclusions The only criterion independently associated with the ability to detect patients with MRMs upon admission to the ICU was the existence of “previous MRM”. (AU)

Documento de revisión y actualización de la cefalea por uso excesivo de medicación (CUEM) / Document of revision and updating of medication overuse headache (MOH)

Introducción: La cefalea con uso excesivo de medicación es una cefalea secundaria en la que el uso regular o frecuente de medicación analgésica produce un aumento de la frecuencia de una cefalea de base, pasando de episódica a crónica. La prevalencia de esta entidad está en torno al 1-2%, siendo más frecuente en mujeres entre 30 y 50 años con comorbilidades psiquiátricas como depresión o ansiedad y otros procesos de dolor crónico. Es importante conocer el manejo de esta entidad. Por este motivo, el Grupo de Estudios de Cefaleas de la Sociedad Española de Neurología ha pretendido realizar este documento de consenso sobre esta patología.DesarrolloEsta guía ha sido redactada por un grupo de expertos a partir de la revisión de la evidencia científica publicada y estableciendo recomendaciones prácticas para su adecuado manejo y tratamiento. El tratamiento de la cefalea con uso excesivo de medicación tiene varios pilares fundamentales y suele ser complejo: información y educación sobre el desarrollo de la cefalea con uso excesivo de medicación, tratamiento preventivo, suspensión del fármaco de uso frecuente y tratamiento de deshabituación. Es importante el seguimiento de pacientes con riesgo de recurrencias.ConclusionesEsperamos que este documento resulte de utilidad y permita su aplicación práctica en la consulta diaria y que sirva para actualizar y mejorar el conocimiento del manejo de esta patología. (AU)

Introduction: Medication overuse headache is a secondary headache in which the regular or frequent use of analgesics can increase the frequency of the episodes, causing the transition from episodic to chronic headache. The prevalence of medication overuse headache is approximately 1-2%, with higher rates among women aged 30-50 years and with comorbid psychiatric disorders such as depression or anxiety, or other chronic pain disorders. It is important to be familiar with the management of this disease. To this end, the Spanish Society of Neurology's Headache Study Group has prepared a consensus document addressing this disorder.DevelopmentThese guidelines were prepared by a group of neurologists specialising in headache after a systematic literature review and provides consensus recommendations on the proper management and treatment of medication overuse headache. The treatment of medication overuse headache is often complex, and is based on 4 fundamental pillars: education and information about the condition, preventive treatment, discontinuation of the drug being overused, and treatment for withdrawal symptoms. Follow-up of patients at risk of recurrence is important.ConclusionsWe hope that this document will be useful in daily clinical practice and that it will update and improve understanding of medication overuse headache management.

Associated factors with physical activity counseling among Brazilian Family Health Strategy workers / Fatores associados ao aconselhamento em atividade física entre trabalhadores da Estratégia Brasileira de Saúde da Família

Abstract This study aimed to determine the prevalence and associated factors with physical activity counseling among Brazilian Family Health Strategy workers. This is a cross-sectional study conducted with a random sample of 591 health workers who work in the Family Health Teams of João Pessoa-PB, Brazil. Counseling for physical activity was defined as any advising targeted for increasing patients' physical activity levels conducted for at least six months. The following factors were considered: time working in health care units, amount of daily attendance, continuing education, perceived barriers, self-efficacy, attitude, self-rated health, physical activity level and nutritional status. Prevalence of counseling was 46.3%, being higher among physicians (74.5%; 95%CI: 59.6-85.2) and nurses (60.3%; 95%CI: 48.0-71.4) compared to community health workers (42.9%; 95%CI: 38.2-47.7) and nurses assistants (31.5%; 95%CI: 20.2-45.4). The results showed health professionals with positive self-rated health, without perception of barriers, having a positive attitude and high self-efficacy were more likely to perform physical activity counseling. Knowledge and actions on factors associated with physical activity counseling can help broaden the involvement of primary health care providers in health education.

Resumo O estudo objetivou determinar a prevalência e os fatores associados ao aconselhamento para atividade física entre trabalhadores da Estratégia de Saúde da Família. Trata-se de estudo transversal com amostra de 591 trabalhadores de Equipes de Saúde da Família de João Pessoa-PB, Brasil. Aconselhamento para atividade física foi definido como qualquer recomendação direcionada a aumentar os níveis de atividade física dos usuários conduzida por pelo menos seis meses. Foram considerados os seguintes fatores: tempo de trabalho, quantidade de atendimentos, educação permanente, barreiras percebidas, autoeficácia, atitude, autoavaliação de saúde, nível de atividade física e estado nutricional. A prevalência de aconselhamento foi de 46,3%, sendo maior entre médicos (74,5%; IC95%: 59,6-85,2) e enfermeiros (60,3%; IC95%: 48,0-71,4) em relação aos agentes comunitários de saúde (42,9%; IC95%: 38,2-47,7) e técnicos de enfermagem (31,5%; IC95%: 20,2-45,4). Profissionais com autoavaliação positiva de saúde, sem percepção de barreiras, com atitude positiva e alta autoeficácia, apresentaram maior chance de realizar aconselhamento. Conhecimentos e ações sobre os fatores associados ao aconselhamento podem ajudar a ampliar o envolvimento dos profissionais em iniciativas de educação em saúde.
