Degree of satisfaction of women treated with reconstruction and dermopigmentation of the nipple-areola complex after breast reconstruction.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the degree of satisfaction of women treated with dermopigmentation and reconstruction of the Areola-Nipple Complex (ANC) after breast reconstruction, as well as their demographic profile and clinical-evolutionary characteristics. METHODS: Descriptive observational study including 128 women treated with dermopigmentation after oncologic breast reconstruction during 2018. In 2021 they were administered an adapted satisfaction questionnaire, which contains 27 items and categorizes satisfaction from 1-5, in addition other clinical-evolutionary and demographic variables were collected. RESULTS: Mean age was 51 (±9) years, 89.1% had previously undergone PDA reconstruction. Mean satisfaction with dermopigmentation was 4.4 (±0.88) and 3.79 (±1.06) for PDA reconstruction. Complications were rare, but 54.5% (n = 54) of the patients reported that the CAP reconstruction did not offer the expected projection, 91.6% (n = 98) that the color had faded and 51.4% (n = 55) would choose permanent tattooing. It was perceived that, the higher the satisfaction of the CAP, the higher the satisfaction of dermopigmentation, while the older the age and previous chemotherapy treatment the lower the color durability (p value ≤ 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Patients who underwent reconstructive breast surgery show a high degree of satisfaction with dermopigmentation and surgical reconstruction of the PDA, but reiterate the low projecticity of the dermopigmentation and the surgical reconstruction of the PDA, but reiterate the low degree of satisfaction with the dermopigmentation.

Patient satisfaction with nursing care in an Intensive Care Unit measured through the Nursing Intensive-Care Satisfaction Scale (NICSS).

BACKGROUND: Patient satisfaction in relation with nursing care has become a key determinant of the quality of hospital care. OBJECTIVES: To evaluate patient satisfaction in relation with nursing care in a critical care context; to determine the correlation between critical patient satisfaction and sociodemographic and clinical variables and to describe patient perceptions with nursing care. METHODS: A descriptive, prospective, correlational study which includes the analysis of some open questions in the intensive care unit (ICU) of a tertiary level university hospital. The degree of satisfaction of all patients discharged from de ICU was evaluated. It was used the validated Spanish version of Nursing Intensive-Care Satisfaction-Scale (NICSS). There were also collected sociodemographic and clinical data and 3 open questions were asked. It was used the inferential and descriptive statistics considering statistically significant p<.05. Open questions were examined using a language context analysis. The approval of the hospital ethical committee was obtained. RESULTS: 111 patients agreed to participate, with a mean age of 64.18 years (CI 95% 61.36-66.88) and with a medium level of satisfaction of 5.83 (CI 95% 5.78-5.88) being 6 the maximum score. Women, older patients and those who reflect a higher degree of recovery, are those who reported greater satisfaction. Three main themes emerged from the analysis of the open-ended questions of the surveys: nurse patient relationship, professional practice environment and ICU nature. CONCLUSION: Patient satisfaction in relation with nursing care was elevated. Age, sex and degree of recovery significantly influenced their perception. Nurse patient relationship and the professional practice environment were aspects highlighted by patients. The professional model incorporated by the institution may encouraged these results.

The Use of Facial Fillers in Clinical Practice: The Level of Patient Satisfaction and an Overview of Common Clinical Complications. / [Artículo traducido] Uso de rellenos faciales en la práctica clínica: nivel de satisfacción del paciente y visión general de las complicaciones clínicas comunes.

BACKGROUND: Patient esthetic satisfaction following facial fillers is an essential topic that should be studied as the number of individuals seeking treatment increases. The face is an essential component of the human body that is frequently associated with beauty, youthfulness, and health. Individuals may seek facial augmentation with fillers for a variety of reasons, such as congenital, acquired by means of aging or disease, or current aesthetic trends. OBJECTIVE: The aim is to assess patient's aesthetic satisfaction and description of common clinical complications in relation to the facial filler injections. METHOD: A cross sectional survey using a questionnaire derived from the global aesthetic improvement scale and WHO quality of life scale, convenience sampling was used to recruit patients attending cosmetic clinics, descriptive analysis and Chi-square methods were used to analyze the data. RESULTS: In the study, 500 female participants, with an average age of 28.48 years, were included. Over 90% reported improvement after filler treatment, ranging from improved to very much improved. A statistically significant correlation was observed between patient satisfaction and the number of filler treatments and the anatomical injection site. However, no statistically significant correlation was found when considering age groups. Local side effects, such as swelling and redness at the injection site, were common but generally mild and of short duration. CONCLUSION: Although the satisfaction level is currently high, practitioners in the field need to pay more attention to this important outcome, since understanding the patient's motivation and expectation before proceeding with the procedure is very important and can contribute significantly in determining patient satisfaction with the result.

Colonoscopy Satisfaction and Safety Questionnaire based on patient experience (CSSQP): A valuable quality tool for all colonoscopies / Cuestionario de Satisfacción y Seguridad de la Colonoscopia basado en la experiencia del Paciente (CSSQP): una valiosa herramienta de calidad para todas las colonoscopias

Introduction The Colonoscopy Satisfaction and Safety Questionnaire based on Patient experience (CSSQP) was recently developed and validated within a Bowel Cancer Screening Program. We aimed to identify factor related to patient experience through the CSSQP, including all indications for colonoscopy. Indicators of satisfaction and perceived safety with colonoscopy were also assessed to compare the different centers. Methods Multicenter study in nine Spanish hospitals. Consecutive patients who had undergone a colonoscopy completed the CSSQP adding a novel item on bowel preparation. Factors related to patient experiences and data from non-respondents were analyzed. Results Of 2200 patients, 1753 filled out the questionnaire (response rate 79.7%, sample error 2%). Patients whose colonoscopy indication was a primary colorectal cancer screening (OR: 1.68, 95% CI: 1.15–2.44, p=0.007) or due to a +FIT (OR: 1.73, 95% CI: 1.18–2.53) reported higher satisfaction than patients with gastrointestinal symptoms. In addition, college-educated patients (OR: 2.11, 95% CI: 1.25–3.56) were more likely to report better overall satisfaction than patients with lower education level. Significant differences were observed in the majority of the CSSQP items between centers. Safety incidents were reported by 35 (2%) patients, and 176 (10%) patients reported that they received insufficient information. Conclusion The CSSQP identifies several significant factors on satisfaction and perceived safety in patients referred for colonoscopy for any reason. The CSSQP also allows comparison of patient-identified colonoscopy quality indicators between centers (AU)

[Incorporation of patient-reported outcomes into pharmacy and dermatology departments, in psoriasis and atopic dermatitis patients, as a tool to improve the healthcare quality and health outcomes]. / Incorporación de resultados informados por pacientes con psoriasis y dermatitis atópica en las consultas de atención farmacéutica y dermatología: herramienta que mejora la calidad asistencial y resultados en salud.

INTRODUCTION: Patient-reported outcomes (PROs) provide subjective information about their disease, treatment, and quality of life. OBJECTIVE: To introduce a new system of work coordinated between pharmacists and dermatologists, based on the collection and analysis of PROs to assess its clinical impact as well as patients satisfaction. METHOD: A prospective single-centre observational study was conducted under clinical conditions and included adult patients diagnosed with psoriasis (PS) and atopic dermatitis (AD) between April-2021 and February-2022. Pharmacists and dermatologists agreed on this systematic work. A REDCap® database was designed to facilitate data collection and the subsequent analysis. RESULTS: A total of 288 and 41 patients with PS and AD, respectively, were included. Those who started treatment showed significant improvement with a decrease in PROs and clinical parameters (p < 0.001). The pharmacist made 168 and 7 recommendations to dermatologists for PS and AD patients, respectively, of which 66.07% and 57.1% were accepted. The most common recommendations were «consult with rheumatologist¼ (20.83%), «extend drug regimen¼ (19.64%) and «consider change in treatment¼ (11.90%). Adverse events were reported in 55 and 17 patients with PS and AD, respectively. Of 103 patients, 75% were «very satisfied¼ and 20% «satisfied¼ with the system. CONCLUSIONS: This new working system helps to evaluate the short and long-term effectiveness of treatments and also to identify adverse events, alarm symptoms and co-morbidities in order to optimize therapies. Collaboration between pharmacists and dermatologists reduces decision-making time and patients appreciate better clinical care leading to higher patient satisfaction.

Abordajes de una molestia periimplantar

Los implantes dentales se han convertido en un componente rutinario de la práctica dental diaria. A la vez, pueden producir molestias, destrucción desenfrenada de la salud bucal o reemplazo quirúrgico y costoso de un implante fallido. La detección temprana de la pérdida ósea marginal es vital para la planificación del tratamiento y el pronóstico de los implantes. Estos están diseñados para adaptarse mejor a los diversos tipos de hueso y fallan debido a muchas razones. Entender los desafíos y las expectativas del paciente a través de la honestidad, es una parte importante del tratamiento, cuyo éxito no solo dependerá de los integrantes del equipo implantológico o de técnica, sino también del cuidado del paciente al realizar su higiene diaria. Por esa razón, se realizó una búsqueda bibliográfica en las bases de datos MEDLINE y PubMed sobre molestias periimplantar, consultándose 30 referencias de los últimos cinco años.

Dental implants have become a routine component of daily dental practice. At the same time, they can cause discomfort, rampant destruction of oral health, or expensive surgical replacement of a failed implant. Early detection of marginal bone loss is vital for treatment planning and implant prognosis. These are designed to best fit various bone types and fail due to many reasons. Understanding the patient's challenges and expectations through honesty is an important part of the treatment, whose success will not only depend on the members of the implantology or technical team, but also on the patient's care when performing their daily hygiene. For this reason, a bibliographic search was carried out in the MEDLINE and PubMed databases on peri-implant discomfort, consulting 30 bibliographical references from the last 5 years.

PERCEPCIÓN DE LA CALIDAD DE LA ATENCIÓN OTORGADA A LOS PACIENTES EN EL SERVICIO DE URGENCIA / PERCEPTION OF THE QUALITY OF CARE PROVIDED TO PATIENTS IN THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT

INTRODUCCIÓN. La atención de urgencia reviste características particulares, conjugándose múltiples factores que impactan en la calidad del servicio prestado, siendo su evaluación crucial para mejorar la satisfacción de los usuarios. No obstante, la utilización de encuestas no siempre logra profundizar la experiencia del paciente y del personal que presta el servicio. OBJETIVO. Conocer la calidad percibida por los usuarios de un servicio de urgencia de una clínica privada de Chile. METODOLOGÍA. Investigación cualitativa, descriptiva en la que participaron 20 pacientes, cinco familiares y diez integrantes del equipo de salud. Para la recolección de datos se realizaron entrevistas semiestructuradas y observación no participante. Se utilizó un enfoque inductivo para analizar los datos, realizando codificación selectiva y axial en base a siete categorías predefinidas basadas en las dimensiones de calidad. RESULTADOS. Del análisis de los discursos se obtuvieron seis categorías y 16 subcategorías de calidad de atención, siendo las más relevantes la oportunidad, la calidez, el confort y calidad técnica y capacidad resolutiva. En el caso del personal de salud, emergió la violencia por parte de pacientes o familiares como un factor relevante que impacta negativamente en la calidad. CONCLUSIÓN. Existió coincidencia en la percepción del personal de salud, pacientes y familiares. Se identificaron como fortalezas la amabilidad del personal, así como la accesibilidad y oportunidad de la información al paciente respecto de los procesos de atención. Se detectaron oportunidades de mejora relacionadas a los tiempos de espera, la presencia de especialistas y a la privacidad que ofrecen los boxes de atención.

INTRODUCTION: Emergency care involves multiple factors that impact the quality of the service provided, and its evaluation is crucial to enhance user satisfaction. However, the use of surveys does not always succeed in revealing the patient's experience and the experiences of staff who provide the service. OBJECTIVE: To ascertain the perceived quality of care by users of an emergency department in a private clinic in Chile. METHODOLOGY: Qualitative, descriptive research involving 15 patients, five relatives and ten healthcare team members. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and non-participant observation. An inductive approach was used to analyze the data, implementing selective and axial coding based on seven pre-defined categories grounded on quality dimensions. RESULTS: From the analysis of the data, six categories and 16 subcategories of care quality were obtained, with the most relevant being timeliness, warmth, comfort, technical quality, and problem-solving capacity. In the case of health personnel, violence by patients or family members emerged as a relevant factor that negatively impacts quality. CONCLUSION: There was agreement in the perception of healthcare personnel, patients, and relatives. The friendliness of the staff, as well as the accessibility and timeliness of information provided to the patient regarding care processes, were identified as strengths. Opportunities for improvement were detected related to waiting times, the presence of specialists, and the privacy offered in the care setting.

Application of CMO (capacity, motivation, and opportunity) methodology in pharmaceutical care to optimize the pharmacotherapy in older people living with HIV. DISPIMDINAC project / Intervención farmacéutica basada en la metodología CMO para optimizar la farmacoterapia en pacientes VIH mayores. Proyecto DISPIMDINAC

Objective. To determine the effectiveness of a pharma ceutical intervention, based on the CMO methodology (capac ity, motivation and opportunity), to decrease the prevalence of the PIMDINAC concept (potentially inappropriate medica tion+drug interactions+non-adherence to concomitant med ication) in people living with HIV infection. Material and methods. Longitudinal prospective multi center study, conducted between October 2021 and October 2022. Patients living with HIV older than 65 years, on antiret roviral treatment and concomitant drug prescription were included. Demographic, clinical, and pharmacotherapeutic variables were collected. Pharmaceutical care was provided for 6 months according to the CMO model in each patient. The main variable was the percentage of patients who simultane ously fulfilled the PIMDINAC concept, comparing the baseline value with the same value at the end of the study. In addi tion, the percentage of patient’s adherent to concomitant and antiretroviral treatment and the percentage of patients meet ing the pharmacotherapeutic targets established for the pre scribed medication at 24 weeks of follow-up were compared. Results. Sixty-eight patients were included. Seventy-two percent were men, with a median age of 68 years. The medi an number of concomitant drugs was 7. A 60.6% of the pa tients had polypharmacy. The prevalence of the presence of the PIMDINAC concept decreased significantly (10.3 vs. 0%). In isolation, each of the aspects also decreased significantly (p <0.031) The percentage of patients who met the objectives improved significantly from 48,5 at baseline to 88.2 (p <0.001). Conclusions. The pharmaceutical intervention based on the CMO methodology significantly decreased the prevalence of the PIMDINAC concept and increased the number of pa tients who achieved the objectives, optimising their pharma cotherapy (AU)

Objetivo. Determinar la efectividad de una intervención farmacéutica, basada en la metodología CMO (Capacidad, Motivación y oportunidad) para disminuir la prevalencia de criterios PIMDINAC (medicación potencialmente inapropiada interacciones farmacológica-no adherencia a la medicación concomitante) en pacientes VIH+. Material y métodos. Estudio multicéntrico prospectivo longitudinal, realizado entre octubre-2021 y octubre-2022. Se incluyeron pacientes VIH+ ≥65 años, en tratamiento an tirretroviral activo y medicación concomitante prescrita. Se recogieron variables demográficas, clínicas y farmacote rapéuticas. La intervención de atención farmacéutica se rea lizó durante los 6 meses de seguimiento a través de la me todología CMO. La variable principal fue la diferencia en el porcentaje de pacientes que presentaban los tres criterios PIMDINAC de forma simultánea al inicio-fin del estudio. Se analizó la variación del porcentaje de pacientes adheren tes tanto al TAR y a la medicación concomitante, así como el porcentaje de pacientes que alcanzaron sus objetivos farma coterapéuticos previamente definidos a los 6 meses de segui miento. Resultados. Se incluyeron 67 pacientes, 72.0% varones con una mediana de edad de 68 años. El 60.6% de los pacientes tenían polifarmacia de forma basal con una mediana de fárma cos de 7.0. La presencia de criterios PIMDINAC disminuyó sig nificativamente de un 10.3 a 0%. De forma individual se redujo el porcentaje de cada criterio de forma significativa (p=0.031). Se incrementó el porcentaje de pacientes que alcanzaron sus objetivos farmacoterapéuticos (48,5% vs 88,2%; p<0.001). Conclusiones. La estrategia basada en la metodología CMO disminuye significativamente la prevalencia de los cri terios PIMDINAC, así como incrementa la consecución de los objetivos farmacoterapéuticos de los pacientes, optimizando su farmacoterapia (AU)

Evaluación del impacto, los patrones de tratamiento y las percepciones de pacientes y clínicos de los síntomas vasomotores moderado-graves asociados a la menopausia en España / Analysis of the impact, patterns of care, and perspectives of patients and physicians about moderate-to-severe menopausal vasomotor symptoms in Spain

Introducción: La menopausia puede originar distintos síntomas, siendo los vasomotores especialmente prevalentes y molestos. Este trabajo pretende conocer su impacto y los patrones/percepciones sobre el tratamiento en España, para lo que se han analizado las opiniones de clínicos y pacientes con síntomas vasomotores moderado-graves (SVM-MG). Métodos: Estudio transversal descriptivo de la subpoblación española del Programa de Enfermedades Específicas de Adelphi-VMS™. Médicos de atención primaria y de Ginecología y Obstetricia seleccionaron las pacientes. Estas fueron invitadas a rellenar una encuesta y los cuestionarios MENQOL y WPAI:SHP. Los datos se han presentado como porcentaje o media±desviación estándar. Resultados: Un total de 32 médicos de Atención Primaria y Ginecología y Obstetricia completaron los formularios de registro para 241 mujeres, de las cuales 143 experimentaban SVM-MG. A pesar del impacto global reportado en el trabajo (24,84%±17,49 presentismo) y en la calidad de vida (3,37±1,52 MENQOL), solo el 53,85% de las mujeres eran tratadas. El tratamiento hormonal de la menopausia era el más prescrito (77,92%), seguido de los inhibidores de la recaptación de serotonina (32,47%). El 59% de los clínicos estaba muy o completamente satisfecho con el tratamiento hormonal de la menopausia, mientras que solo el 19% lo estaba con los inhibidores de la recaptación de serotonina. Pacientes y especialistas indicaron un nivel de satisfacción inferior al 38% en el control de los SVM. Conclusiones: Los SVM-MG asociados a la menopausia tienen un importante impacto sobre la calidad de vida. Una mayor sensibilización en su manejo y mejores opciones terapéuticas contribuirían significativamente a mejorar la salud y bienestar de la mujer durante el climaterio.(AU)

Introduction: Menopause generates different symptoms, among which vasomotor symptoms are especially prevalent and bothersome. The aim of this work was to determine their impact and the treatment patterns and perceptions in Spain by analyzing the opinions of physicians and patients with moderate-to-severe vasomotor symptoms (MS-VMS). Methods: Descriptive cross-sectional study of the Spanish subpopulation from the Adelphi-VMS™ Disease-Specific Program. Primary Care and Gynecology and Obstetrics physicians selected the patients. These patients were invited to complete a survey and the MENQOL and WPAI:SHP questionnaires. Data are presented as percentage or mean±standard deviation. Results: Overall 32 Primary Care and Gynecology and Obstetrics physicians participated in the study, enrolling 241 women, of whom 143 experienced MS-VMS. Despite the reported impact on global work (24.84%±17.49 presentism) and quality of life (3.37±1.52 MENQOL score), only 53.85% of women with MS-VMS were treated. Menopausal hormone treatment was the most prescribed (77.92%), followed by serotonin reuptake inhibitors (32.47%). Fifty-nine percent of clinicians were very or completely satisfied with hormone treatment, whereas only 19% had this level of satisfaction with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors. Less than 38% of patients and physicians were satisfied with the control of VMS. Conclusions: Menopause-associated MS-VMS have an important impact on quality of life. Increased awareness about their management and better therapeutic options would significantly contribute to improving women's health and well-being during their climacteric period.(AU)
