RESUMO

It is uncertain whether hydrocolloid dressings, a more costly intervention than offering standard care with petrolatum, is superior to prevent pressure ulcers among hospitalized high-risk adults. Randomized, parallel-group, open-label, superiority trial with an active control group, blinded for investigators, event validators, and analysts (December 1, 2015 to December 12, 2017). Eligible patients were ≥ 18 years of age with intact skin judged as high-risk for skin ulcers (Braden scale), admitted to surgical or medical wards of two tertiary-level hospitals. Participants were randomized (1:1) to protection with hydrocolloid dressings or petrolatum. The primary outcome was the first occurrence of pressure ulcers (with post-injury photographs adjudicated by three judges) under intention-to-treat analysis. Based on prior cost analysis, and the available resources (assumed incidence of 6 ulcers/1000 patient-days in controls), inclusion of up to 1500 participants allowed to surpass a one-sided superiority threshold > 5% based on a target efficacy > 40% for dressings. We planned an economic analysis using a decision tree model based on the effectiveness of the study results from a perspective of the third payer of health care. After inclusion of 689 patients (69 events), the trial was stopped for futility after a planned interim analysis (conditional power < 0.1 for all scenarios if the trial was completed). Pressure ulcers had occurred in 34 (10.2%) patients in the intervention group [9.6 per 1000 patient-days] and 35 (9.9%) participants in the control group [7.9 per 1000 patient-days], HR = 1.07 [95% CI 0.67 to 1.71]. The estimated incremental cost for dressings (a dominated strategy) was USD 52.11 per patient. Using hydrocolloid dressings was found similar to petrolatum for preventing pressure ulcers among hospitalized high-risk patients. As it conveys additional costs, and in this study was unlikely to demonstrate enough superiority, this strategy did not overcome conventional skin care.Trial registration: ClinicalTrials.gov identifier (NCT number): NCT02565745 registered on December 1, 2015.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: To describe the clinical characteristics, treatment, evolution, and nursing care of adult patients with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome who were positive for SARS-CoV-2 and hospitalized in intensive care units (ICUs) during the first peak of the pandemic in Colombia, 2020. METHODS: Multicenter descriptive study of four high-complexity hospitals in Colombia, which included 473 consecutive adult patients admitted to intensive care units with a confirmed diagnosis of SARS CoV-2. Sociodemographic and clinical information - comorbidities, treatment and evolution - and nursing care provided were included. RESULTS: Of the patients included, 43.7% died, 88.8% had pneumonia, and 60.2% developed respiratory distress syndrome. Most of those who died were men. Those who died had a median age of 68.4 years and a higher frequency of comorbidities (hypertension, cardiovascular disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and higher body mass index). They were admitted to the ICU with higher rate of dyspnea, lower oxygen saturation, and higher score of multiorgan failure. They also more often required mechanical ventilation and pronation therapy and were given more vasopressors and renal replacement therapy. CONCLUSIONS: People with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome due to COVID-19 who were hospitalized in the ICU had a high risk of death, especially older patients; males; those with cardiovascular, respiratory, and hypertension comorbidities; those who needed mechanical ventilation; and those with an elevated SOFA score. The nursing care of these critically ill patients focused on respiratory care and the prevention of associated complications.

Objetivo. Describir las características clínicas, tratamiento, evolución y cuidados de enfermería de los pacientes adultos con síndrome de dificultad respiratoria aguda grave, positivos para SARS-CoV-2, hospitalizados en Unidades de Cuidados Intensivos (UCI) durante el primer pico de pandemia en Colombia en 2020. Métodos. Estudio descriptivo multicéntrico con la participación de cuatro hospitales de alto nivel de complejidad en Colombia, que incluyó 473 pacientes adultos, admitidos de forma consecutiva en unidades de cuidados intensivos -UCI-, con diagnóstico confirmado para SARS CoV-2. Se incluyó información sociodemográfica, clínica, comorbilidades, tratamiento y evolución, además de los cuidados de enfermería brindados. Resultados. Del total de pacientes incluidos fallecieron el 43.7%, presentaron neumonía el 88.8% y un 60.2% desarrollaron síndrome de dificultad respiratoria. Las personas que fallecieron en su mayoría fueron hombres, con una mediana de edad de 68.4 años, con mayor frecuencia de comorbilidades (hipertensión, enfermedad cardiovascular, enfermedad pulmonar obstructiva crónica y mayor índice de masa corporal); además ingresaron a UCI con mayor presencia de disnea, menor saturación de oxígeno, y con puntaje mayor de falla multiorgánica. Así mismo, requirieron con más frecuencia de ventilación mecánica, terapia de pronación, uso de vasopresores y terapia de reemplazo renal. Los cuidados de enfermería de estos pacientes en estado crítico se enfocaron al cuidado respiratorio y la prevención de complicaciones asociadas. Conclusión. Las personas con síndrome de dificultad respiratoria aguda grave por COVID-19 que se hospitalizaron en UCI tuvieron un riesgo elevado de fallecer, especialmente los pacientes de mayor edad, sexo masculino y con comorbilidades cardiovasculares, respiratorias e hipertensión arterial, uso de ventilación mecánica y un puntaje puntaje de SOFA elevado. Los cuidados de enfermería de estos pacientes en estado crítico se enfocaron al cuidado respiratorio y la prevención de complicaciones asociadas.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: This work sought to assess the inter-observer agreement among expert nurses by using digital photographs and between these experts and the nursing registries in the electronic clinical record in the identification and degree of PL. METHODS: This was an observational study, including 225 photographic records (184 patients, 97 with pressure lesion and 128 registries without lesion) randomly selected from the total of photographs registered in the PENFUP clinical trial (without lesion). Three expert evaluators assessed said photographs in masked manner. The notes from nursing of patients included related with the description of PL were evaluated. The Kappa index was calculated along with the composite agreement ratio for each evaluation. RESULTS: Good agreement was observed among expert evaluators of photographic records on the presence of PL and between good-moderate for the degree of PL (I-II). Likewise, upon evaluating the agreement between the nursing registries of PL and the photographic assessment of the three expert evaluators of the same areas, good agreement was observed to determine the presence of PL and moderate agreement for the degrees of PL. CONCLUSIONS: Photographic records are a tool that permits recognizing the types of wounds, as well as the visualization of the different layers of skin injured. The study highlights the importance of assessment and validation by experts, given that it permits identifying existing problems that can lead to the underestimation or overestimation of PL when conducted by a single caregiver.
