RESUMO
Resumen Objetivo: Evaluar la eficacia y utilidad de la clasificación de Robson en la reducción de la práctica de cesáreas. Materiales y métodos: Estudio observacional, descriptivo, retrospectivo y de corte transversal efectuado en pacientes de nivel socioeconómico medio y bajo atendidas entre enero y diciembre de 2016 en un hospital de segundo nivel. Para clasificar a las pacientes, según sus características obstétricas, se aplicó el modelo de Robson. Resultados: Se estudiaron 374 pacientes embarazadas; de ellas 91 (24.3%) terminaron la gestación mediante cesárea. Los grupos de Robson con mayor contribución al porcentaje de cesáreas fueron: grupo 1 con 50.5%, grupo 2 con 29.8% y grupo 10 con 8.7%. El grupo 5 reportó que 62.7% de los embarazos terminaron mediante parto. El 89.8% de las pacientes ingresó con trabajo de parto espontáneo. Las principales indicaciones de cesárea fueron, en el grupo 1, trabajo de parto estacionario; en el grupo 2, cesárea iterativa y en el grupo 10, feto pretérmino. Conclusiones: La aplicación del modelo de clasificación de Robson es útil y práctica para identificar los grupos de pacientes en los que es posible disminuir el porcentaje de cesáreas.
Abstract Objective: Evaluate the effectiveness and usefulness of the Robson classification to reduce the practice of cesarean sections. Materials and methods: Observational, descriptive, retrospective and cross section was made in patients of medium and low socioeconomic status attended between January and December 2016 in a second level hospital. For classify the patients, according to their obstetric characteristics, the model of Robson was applied. Results: 374 pregnant patients were studied; in 91 (24.3%) the pregnancy ended by caesarean section. The Robson groups with the greatest percentage contribution of caesarean sections were: group 1 with 50.5%, group 2 with 29.8% and group 10 with 8.7%. Group 5 reported that 62.7% of pregnancies ended by delivery; 89.8% of the patients was admitted with spontaneous labor. The main Cesarean indications were, in group 1, stationary labor; at group 2, iterative caesarean section and group 10, preterm fetus. Conclusions: The application of the Robson classification model is useful and practice to identify groups of patients in who it is possible to decrease the percentage of cesareans.
RESUMO
Heart failure is one of the most important causes of death worldwide. Heart transplant is the last effective alternative when the medical and surgical treatments have failed in patients with end stage heart failure, giving them an 80% one year survival rate. Unfortunately, during the outcome, the heart transplant patients can develop complications such as graft rejection and opportunistic infections because of the use of immunosuppressive therapy. In the present article we report the experience with 33 heart transplant patients. Our program not only has successfully transplanted patients with advanced age but, for the first time in Latin America we have transplanted patients assisted with the ambulatory Thoratec TLC II system. Even with limited resources, we have managed the same complications than other heart transplant programs, our 82% one year survival rate is similar than reports in medical literature.
