RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To describe the sociodemographic and epidemiological characteristics of diagnosis and treatment of pediatric patients with sleep apnea, both central and obstructive, in Colombia between 2017 and 2021. METHODS: Observational, descriptive, cross-sectional, epidemiological study using the International Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems as search terms for sleep apnea, based on SISPRO, the Colombian national health registry. Stratification by gender and age groups was performed. We also generated data of the amount of diagnostic and therapeutic procedures performed. A map of prevalence by place of residency was performed. RESULTS: National records report 15200 cases of SA between 2017 and 2021, for an estimated prevalence of 21.1 cases by 100000 inhabitants in 2019 the year with the most cases (4769), being more frequent and in the 6 to 11 age group and in males, with a male to female ratio of 1.54:1. The number of cases declined in 2020 and 2021. The map showed a concentration of cases in the more developed departments of the country. DISCUSSION: This is the first approximation to a nation-wide prevalence of sleep apnea in Colombia which is lower to what is found in the literature worldwide, including studies performed in Latin America and in Colombia, this could reflect sub diagnosis and sub report. The fact that the highest prevalence was found in males and in the 6-11 age group is consistent with reports in literature. The decrease in cases in 2020 and 2021 could be related to the COVID-19 pandemic impact in sleep medicine services.

RESUMO

Abstract Measures such as frequent handwashing, mandatory use of face masks by the general population in public spaces, social and physical distancing, and mandatory confinement of most people at their homes have contributed to slowing down the spread of the new coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2), which is the source of the current COVID-19 pandemic. However, adopting some of these measures has caused delays in the diagnosis and treatment of various diseases, including sleep disorders. Therefore, it is urgent for sleep specialists and sleep centers to gradually resume activities, as long as strict biosecurity protocols aimed at reducing the risk of contagion are implemented. In this scenario, and in order to help somnologists reopen sleep centers and resume the procedures performed there, the Asociación Colombiana de Medicina del Sueño (Colombian Association of Sleep Medicine) proposes through this reflection paper several recommendations that should be considered during the reactivation process. These recommendations are based on the COVID-19 spread mitigation strategies established by the Colombian health authorities, the guidelines issued by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, and relevant literature on this subject, which was reviewed after performing a search in the PubMed, SciELO, and Google Scholar databases using the search terms "sleep" "sleep medicine" and "COVID19".


Resumen El lavado de manos frecuente, el uso obligatorio de mascarilla por parte de la población general en sitios públicos, el distanciamiento físico y social, y el confinamiento obligatorio de la mayoría de la población en sus casas son las medidas que hasta el momento han ayudado a frenar la propagación del nuevo coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2), causante de la actual pandemia por COVID-19. Sin embargo, la adopción de algunas de estas medidas ha generado retraso en el diagnóstico y tratamiento de diferentes enfermedades, incluyendo los trastornos del sueño, por lo que es urgente que los especialistas en medicina del sueño y los centros de sueño retomen sus actividades gradualmente, siempre que se implementen estrictos protocolos de bioseguridad que mitiguen el riesgo de contagio. En este contexto, y con el fin de ayudar a los somnólogos a reabrir los centros de sueño y reanudar los procedimientos allí realizados, la Asociación Colombiana de Medicina del Sueño propone en la presente reflexión una serie de recomendaciones para tener en cuenta durante el proceso de reactivación. Estas recomendaciones se basan en las estrategias de mitigación establecidas por las autoridades sanitarias del país, las directrices de la American Academy of Sleep Medicine y la literatura disponible sobre el tema, la cual fue revisada luego de realizar una búsqueda en las bases de datos PubMed, SciELO y Google Scholar usando los términos "sleep" "sleep medicine" y "COVID19".

RESUMO

Introducción: El síndrome de apnea e hipopnea obstructiva del sueño es una patología frecuente en la población pediátrica que genera un alto impacto en la calidad de vida tanto de los pacientes como de sus familias. Objetivo: Realizar la validación del Cuestionario Pediátrico de Sueño a la población pediátrica colombiana a grandes alturas y determinar si existe asociación entre los hallazgos en el cuestionario y los hallazgos polisomnográficos. Diseño: Observacional analítico prospectivo. Materiales y métodos: Este estudio fue realizado a 2,600 metros sobre el nivel del mar. Se incluyeron 121 pacientes entre 2 y 18 años, candidatos a adeno/amigdalectomía a los que se les aplicó el cuestionario pediátrico de sueño, y fue sometido a un proceso de validación específico para la población colombiana. Resultados: No se obtuvo una correlación de los resultados del cuestionario con los resultados de severidad de la enfermedad en el polisomnograma. Discusión: El cuestionario pediátrico de sueño (PSQ) fue sometido a un proceso de validación específico para la población colombiana a grandes alturas. Sin embargo, dado que los ítems A24, A25, B7, B9, y B22 se determinaron como redundantes, se podría proponer una escala condensada específica para la población colombiana, omitiendo estas preguntas. Conclusiones: El cuestionario pediátrico de sueño (PSQ) fue validado satisfactoriamente a la población colombiana habitante de grandes alturas. Sin embargo, se propone una modificación, eliminando las preguntas A24, A25, B7, B9, y B22, logrando un cuestionario más corto y simplificado, sin tener efectos sobre la validez del mismo.


Introduction: The obstructive sleep apnea and hypopnea syndrome is a frequent pathology in the pediatric population that generates a high impact on the quality of both patients and their families. Objective: To validate the Pediatric Sleep Questionnaire to the Colombian pediatric population. Design: Prospective analytical observational. Methods: This study was conducted at 2,600 meters above sea level. We included 121 patients between 2 and 18 years old, who were candidates for adeno/tonsillectomy to whom the Pediatric Sleep Questionnaire was applied; this questionnaire was underwent to a specific validation process for the Colombian population. Results: The results of the questionnaire was not correlated with disease severity determined by polysomnogram. Discussion: The pediatric sleep questionnaire (PSQ) was underwent to a specific validation process for the Colombian population at high altitudes. However, due to that articles A24, A25, B7, B9 and B22 were determined as redundant, a specific escalation could be proposed for the Colombian population, omitting these questions. Conclusions: The pediatric sleep questionnaire (PSQ) was validated satisfactorily in the Colombian population living at high altitudes. However, a modification is proposed, eliminating the questions A24, A25, B7, B9 and B22, obtaining a shorter and simplified questionnaire, without having effects on the duration of the same.

RESUMO

Describir las recomendaciones sobre el manejo de las complicaciones pulmonares reportadas en las guías de práctica clínica de buena calidad según AGREE II, con el objetivo de disminuir el desarrollo de morbilidades y mejorar la calidad de vida de los pacientes.Metodología: Se revisaron las guías de práctica clínica de fibrosis quística en inglés y español publicadas entre 2005 y 2013, utilizando el instrumento AGREE II para evaluar su calidad.Resultados. La búsqueda arrojó un total de 126 guías, se evaluaron 6, y 4 de ellas obtuvieron una puntuación en los dominios de rigor e independencia≥60% según AGREE II. De estas se tomaron las recomendaciones para el manejo de las exacerbaciones pulmonares porPseudomonas aeruginosa, de la vía aérea, neumotórax, hemoptisis y aspergilosis broncopulmonar alérgica.Conclusiones: El mejor antibiótico inhalado para uso crónico es la tobramicina. La dornasa alfa es el mejor mucolítico. El uso de corticoides es controvertido, pero es útil en pacientes que cursan con asma y/o aspergilosis broncopulmonar alérgica. La guía de práctica clínica de mejor calidad hasta la fecha es la de Ecuador...


Cystic fibrosis is an autosomal recessive disease caused by mutations in chromosome 7, and compromises multiple organs. One of the most common complications is the respiratory tract infection due to Pseudomonas aeruginosa.Objectives: To present the recommendations on the management of the pulmonary complications reported in clinical practice guidelines, of good quality according to AGREE II, with the aim of reducing morbidity and improving the quality of life of the patients.Methods: A review was performed on cystic fibrosis clinical practice guidelines, in English and Spanish, published between 2005 and 2013, using the AGREE II tool to evaluate their quality.Results: The search produced a total of 126 guidelines, of which 6 were evaluated, and 4 obtained a score≥60% in the rigour and independence domain according to the AGREE II. The recommendations for the management of pulmonary exacerbations due to Pseudomonas aeruginosa were taken from these, as well as those for those of the airways, pneumothorax, haemoptysis, and allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis.Conclusions: The best inhaled antibiotic for chronic use is tobramycin. Dornase alpha is the best mucolytic. The use of corticosteroids is controversial, but is useful in patients who suffer from asthma and/or allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis. The best quality clinical practice guidelines are currently from Ecuador...
