RESUMO

Objetivos: Demostrar la eficacia de una intervención integral en la transición de cuidados (Plan de Alta Guiado Multinivel, PAGM) para disminuir eventos adversos a 30 días en ancianos frágiles con insuficiencia cardiaca aguda (ICA) dados de alta desde servicios de urgencias (SU) y validar los resultados de dicha intervención en condiciones reales. Método: Se seleccionarán pacientes mayores de 70 años frágiles con diagnóstico principal de ICA dados del alta a su domicilio desde SU. La intervención consistirá en aplicar un PAGM: 1) lista de verificación sobre recomendaciones clínicas y activación de recursos; 2) programación de visita precoz; 3) transmisión de información a atención primaria; 4) hoja de instrucciones al paciente por escrito. Fase 1: ensayo clínico con asignación al azar por conglomerados emparejado. Se asignará de forma aleatoria 10 SU (N = 480) al grupo de intervención y 10 SU (N = 480) al grupo de control. Se compararán los resultados entre grupo de intervención y control. Fase 2: estudio cuasi-experimental. Se realizará la intervención en los 20 SU (N = 300). Se comparará los resultados entre la fase 1 y 2 del grupo de intervención y entre la fase 1 y 2 del grupo de control. La variable principal de resultado es compuesta (revisita a urgencias u hospitalización por ICA o mortalidad de origen cardiovascular) a los 30 días del alta. Conclusiones: El estudio valorará la eficacia y factibilidad de una intervención integral en la transición de cuidados para reducir resultados adversos a 30 días en ancianos frágiles con ICA dados de alta desde los SU


Objectives: To demonstrate the efficacy of a system for comprehensive care transfer (Multilevel Guided Discharge Plan [MGDP]) for frail older patients diagnosed with acute heart failure (AHF) and to validate the results of MGDP implementation under real clinical conditions. The MGDP seeks to reduce the number of adverse outcomes within 30 days of emergency department (ED) discharge. Method: We will enroll frail patients over the age of 70 years discharged home from the ED with a main diagnosis of AHF. The MGDP includes the following components: 1) a checklist of clinical recommendations and resource activations, 2) scheduling of an early follow-up visit, 3) transfer of information to the primary care doctor, and 4) written instructions for the patient. Phase 1 of the study will be a matched-pair cluster-randomized controlled trial. Ten EDs will be randomly assigned to the intervention group and 10 to the control group. Each group will enroll 480 patients, and the outcomes will be compared between groups. Phase 2 will be a quasi-experimental study of the intervention in 300 new patients enrolled by the same 20 EDs. The outcomes will be compared to those for each Phase-1 group. The main endpoint at 30 days will be a composite of 2 outcomes: revisits to an ED and/for hospitalization for AHF or cardiovascular death. Conclusions: The study will assess the efficacy and feasibility of comprehensive MGDP transfer of care for frail older AHF patients discharged home

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: The primary aim was to study the impact that creating a short-stay unit (SSU) had on clinical management and quality of care indicators of a hospital overall and its conventional wards. The secondary aim was to establish values for those indicators and determine the level of satisfaction of patients admitted to the SSU. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Quasi-experimental before-after study of the impact of establishing a SSU in a tertiary care teaching hospital. The first period (without the SSU) was in 2012, the second (with the SSU) was from 2013 through 2015. To meet the first objective we selected cases in 2012 in which patients were hospitalized for problems related to the 5 diagnosis-related groups most often admitted to the SSU in the second period. To meet the second objective, we studied all patients admitted to the SSU in the second period Data related to quality of care and clinical management were analyzed retrospectively. and asked them to complete a questionnaire on patient satisfaction. RESULTS: A total of 76 241 admissions were included: 19 090 in the first period and 57 151 in the second (2705 admissions were to the SSU). The mean hospital stay decreased in the second period (incidence rate ratio [IRR], 0.93; 95% CI, 0.91-0.95); the mean stay also decreased on medical wards (IRR, 0.94; 95% CI, 0.92-0.96) with no impact on adverse outcomes. The mean stay in the SSU was under 3 days in spite of an increase in the weighted mean (IRR,1.08; 95% CI, 1.05-1.11). A total of 320 questionnaires were received (11.8% response rate); all aspects were assessed very highly. CONCLUSION: Our experience suggests that opening a SSU could improve clinical management and quality of care indicators for a hospital overall and for its conventional wards in the context of the GRDs that most frequently lead to admissions.


OBJETIVO: El objetivo principal fue estudiar el impacto de la creación de una unidad de corta estancia (UCE) en los indicadores de gestión clínica y de calidad asistencial del hospital y de las unidades de hospitalización convencional. El objetivo secundario fue conocer los resultados de estos mismos indicadores en la UCE y la satisfacción de los pacientes ingresados en ella. METODO: Estudio cuasiexperimental que comparó dos periodos de tiempo antes y después de la puesta en marcha de una UCE en un hospital universitario de tercer nivel: 1) Periodo 1: sin UCE (2012); 2) Periodo 2: con UCE (2013- 2015). Para el objetivo principal, se seleccionaron los episodios de pacientes ingresados en el hospital, pertenecientes a los cinco grupos relacionados con diagnóstico (GRD) que más frecuentemente ingresan en la UCE, desde 2012 a 2015. Para el objetivo secundario, se seleccionaron todos los episodios de pacientes ingresados en la UCE de 2013 a 2015. Se recogieron de forma retrospectiva datos de calidad y gestión clínica. Se realizó una encuesta de satisfacción en una muestra de pacientes ingresados en la UCE. RESULTADOS: Se incluyeron 76.241 ingresos hospitalarios. 19.090 en el periodo 1 y 57.151 en periodo 2, de los cuales 2.705 fueron en la UCE. En el periodo con UCE disminuyó la estancia media del hospital (IRR 0,93; IC95% 0,91-0,95) y de las áreas médicas (IRR 0,94; IC95% 0,92-0,96) sin un incremento en los resultados adversos. La estancia media de la UCE se ha mantenido por debajo de los 3 días con un incremento del peso medio (IRR 1,08; IC95% 1,05-1,11). Se contestaron 320 encuestas (11,8% del total de pacientes ingresados) y todos los aspectos fueron puntuados de forma muy sobresaliente. CONCLUSIONES: En nuestra experiencia, la apertura de una UCE podría contribuir a mejorar los indicadores de gestión clínica y de calidad asistencial del hospital y de las unidades de hospitalización convencional en aquellos GRD más frecuentemente ingresados en la UCE.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To determine whether the presence of a short-stay unit(SSU) in a hospital influences the percentage of admissions, length of hospital stay(LOS) and outcomes in emergency department(ED) patients with acute heart failure(AHF). METHOD: Retrospective analysis of AHF patients presenting to one of 34 Spanish ED included in EAHFE registry. Baseline and ED data of patients were collected. Patients were classified into two groups in function of being attended at hospitals with or without a SSU. Main outcome variables were the percentage of admissions from ED, and LOS for admitted patients. Secondary variables were all-cause death and ED revisits for worsening heart failure within 30days following discharge. RESULTS: Of 9078 patients presenting to the ED (SSU 5191; no SSU 3887), 6796 (74.8%) were admitted. Compared to hospitals without a SSU, the admission rate in hospitals with a SSU was 8.9% higher (95%CI 6.5%-11.4%), but 30-day ED revisit and mortality rates were lower among patients discharged directly from the ED (-10.3%, 95%CI -16,9% to -3.7%; and -10.0%, 95%CI -16.6 to -3.4%, respectively). For admitted patients, the overall LOS was 9.3±9.5days, being 2.2days shorter (95%CI -2.7 to -1.7) in hospitals with a SSU, with no significant differences in in-hospital, 30-day mortality or 30-day ED revisit rates. CONCLUSIONS: The data suggest that SSU may improve the safety of emergency care of patients with AHF, but at the cost of a higher rate of hospital admissions, and it may also reduce the LOS for admitted patients without affecting post discharge safety.
