RESUMO

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVE: In 2015, the Spanish Society of Hospital Pharmacy (SEFH) launched the Strategic Map for Outpatient Pharmaceutical Care (MAPEX), with the purpose of adapting the activity offered in Hospital Pharmacy outpatient clinics to the new healthcare context. The aim of the present study was to analyse the evolution of outpatient pharmaceutical care in Hospital Pharmacy Services in Spain in the period 2016-2021 after the implementation and development of the MAPEX initiative. MATERIAL AND METHOD: The implementation and development of the project was carried out by a group of experts from SEFH and consisted of five phases: creation of the structure, consensus conference, situation analysis, development of strategic initiatives and evolutionary analysis. To analyse the evolutionary development, a specific 43-item questionnaire was developed that addressed aspects related to structure, context, integration, processes, outcomes and research and was answered in 2016 and 2021 (in the latter case by adding 3 additional questions). RESULTS: 141 hospitals participated in the status survey in 2016 and 138 in 2021. Significant differences were found in all dimensions analysed. None of the aspects assessed suffered a setback in this period. The most highly rated aspects at the general level were the improvement of the care model (65.0%) and at the local level, the incorporation of non-face-to-face pharmaceutical care (42.8%). Further progress in the coming years in the expansion and practical application of the methodology proposed in the project was considered a priority. CONCLUSIONS: The implementation and development of the MAPEX initiative has had a positive impact in terms of quality of care for outpatient pharmaceutical care in Hospital Pharmacy services in Spain.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: To assess the efficacy and safety of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) compared with no treatment in healthcare workers with mild SARS-CoV-2 infection. METHODS: Prospective, non-randomized study. All health professionals with confirmed COVID-19 between April 7 and May 6, 2020, non-requiring initial hospitalization were asked to participate. Patients who accepted treatment were given HCQ for five days (loading dose of 400mg q12h the first day followed by200mg q12h). Control group included patients with contraindications for HCQ or who rejected treatment. Study outcomes were negative conversion and viral dynamics of SARS-CoV-2, symptoms duration and disease progression. RESULT: Overall, 142 patients were enrolled: 87 in treatment group and 55 in control group. The median age was 37 years and 75% were female, with few comorbidities. There were no significant differences in time to negative conversion of PCR between both groups. The only significant difference in the probability of negative conversion of PCR was observed at day 21 (18.7%, 95%CI 2.0-35.4). The decrease of SARS-CoV-2 viral load during follow-up was similar in both groups. A non significant reduction in duration of some symptoms in HCQ group was observed. Two patients with HCQ and 4 without treatment developed pneumonia. No patients required admission to the Intensive Care Unit or died. About 50% of patients presented mild side effects of HCQ, mainly diarrhea. CONCLUSIONS: Our study failed to show a substantial benefit of HCQ in viral dynamics and in resolution of clinical symptoms in health care workers with mild COVID-19.

Objetivos: Evaluar la eficacia y seguridad de hidroxicloroquina (HCQ), en comparación con la ausencia de tratamiento en los profesionales sanitarios con infección leve por SARS-CoV-2. Métodos: Estudio prospectivo y no aleatorio. Se solicitó su participación a todos los profesionales sanitarios con diagnóstico confirmado de COVID-19, entre el 7 de abril y el 6 de mayo de 2020, que no requirieron hospitalización inicial. Los pacientes que aceptaron el tratamiento recibieron HCQ durante cinco días (dosis de carga de 400 mg cada 12 h el primer día, y a continuación 200 mg cada 12 h). El grupo control incluyó pacientes con contraindicaciones de HCQ, o que rechazaron el tratamiento. Los resultados del estudio fueron conversión negativa y dinámica viral de SARS-CoV-2, duración de los síntomas y progresión de la enfermedad. Resultados: En total se incluyeron 142 pacientes: 87 en el grupo de tratamiento, y 55 en el grupo control. La edad media fue de 37 años, y el 75% fueron mujeres, con pocas comorbilidades. No existieron diferencias significativas en cuanto al tiempo transcurrido hasta la conversión negativa de la PCR entre ambos grupos. La única diferencia significativa en cuanto a la probabilidad de negativización de la PCR se observó el día 21 (18,7%, IC 95% 2-35,4). El descenso de la carga viral de SARS-CoV-2 durante el seguimiento fue similar en ambos grupos. Se observó una reducción no significativa de la duración de algunos síntomas en el grupo HCQ. Dos pacientes con HCQ y cuatro sin tratamiento desarrollaron neumonía. Ningún paciente requirió ingreso en la Unidad de Cuidados Intensivos, ni hubo fallecidos. Cerca del 50% de los pacientes presentó efectos secundarios leves de HCQ, principalmente diarrea. Conclusiones: Nuestro estudio no reflejó un beneficio sustancial de HCQ, en cuanto a dinámica viral y resolución de los síntomas clínicos en los profesionales sanitarios con infección leve por COVID-19.(AU)

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study is to describe the process of creation and development of the quality certification standard for pharmaceutical care for outpatients of the Pharmacy services. METHOD: The methodology was carried out by a group of experts from the Spanish Society of Hospital Pharmacy (SEFH) and consisted of three phases: situation analysis, development of the standard and definition of the self-assessment tool and, finally, piloting in several hospitals, determining its feasibility, carrying out a new revision and readaptation. RESULTS: A standard was defined with 118 items distributed in ten areas. Of these, 19 were considered compulsory, 36 basic, 40 medium and 23 advanced. Three levels of certification were established, as well as the definition and percentages of compliance with the requirements. The certification process was divided into two stages, the one of previous preparation and the audit itself, where the initial certification would be covered, with four phases - first three led by the certification Company, and the last one by SEFH and the subsequent follow-up and re-certification audits. Two hospitals piloted the process carried out the piloting of the whole process, both obtaining a basic level after the adoption of measures and corrective actions, after which the final definition of the external evaluation of the standard and the name of the standard was agreed upon «Q-PEX¼, as well as, the registration of the intellectual property of said standard in July-2020. CONCLUSIONS: The standard for certification of the quality of pharmaceutical care for outpatients developed aims to help the continuous advancement of Hospital Pharmacy services.

RESUMO

There is growing recognition that caring for a patient with schizophrenia often results in high levels of perceived burden and poorer overall mental health for caregivers. A quantitative cross-sectional design and standardized instruments were used to collect data from 355 primary caregivers of adults in outpatient care with schizophrenia in China. Structural equation modeling was used to examine the association between caregiver burden and mental health among primary caregivers and whether this association is influenced by personality, coping style, and family functioning, based on a diathesis-stress perspective. Goodness-of-fit indices (χ2 /df = 1.406, GFI = 0.919, CFI = 0.957, etc.) confirmed that the modified model fit the data well. In line with the diathesis-stress model, and with this study's hypotheses, we found that caregiver burden was significantly related to mental health outcomes directly. The final model showed that personality traits, coping style, and family function influenced the relationship between caregiver burden and mental health. The neuroticism personality traits have a direct effect on caregiver burden and family functioning in this sample. Coping style had a direct effect on the caregiver burden, and family functioning had a direct effect on the caregiver burden. Our final model about primary caregivers can be applied clinically to predict mental health outcomes from caregiver burden.


Cada vez se reconce más que cuidar a un paciente con esquizofrenia generalmente resulta en niveles altos de sobrecarga percibida y en una peor salud mental general para los cuidadores. Se utilizó un diseño transversal cuantitativo e instrumentos estandarizados para recopilar datos de 355 cuidadores principales de adultos con esquizofrenia en atención extrahospitalaria en China. Se utilizaron modelos de ecuaciones estructurales para analizar la asociación de la sobrecarga del cuidador y la salud mental entre cuidadores principales, y si esta asociación está influenciada por la personalidad, el estilo de afrontamiento y el desempeño familiar sobre la base de una perspectiva diátesis-estrés. Los índices de bondad de ajuste (χ2 /df = 1.406, GFI = 0.919, CFI = 0.957, etc.) confirmaron que el modelo modificado se ajustó bien a los datos. De acuerdo con el modelo de diátesis-estrés y con las hipótesis de este estudio, descubrimos que la sobrecarga del cuidador estuvo considerablemente relacionada con las consecuencias en la salud mental directamente. El modelo definitivo demostró que los rasgos de la personalidad, el estilo de afrontamiento y el desempeño familiar influyeron en la relación entre la sobrecarga del cuidador y la salud mental. Los rasgos de personalidad de neuroticismo tienen un efecto directo en la sobrecarga del cuidador y el desempeño familiar en esta muestra. El estilo de afrontamiento tuvo un efecto directo en la sobrecarga del cuidador y el desempeño familiar tuvo un efecto directo en la sobrecarga del cuidador. Nuestro modelo definitivo acerca de los cuidadores principales puede aplicarse clínicamente para predecir las consecuencias de la sobrecarga del cuidador en su salud mental.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Pharmaceutical care to outpatients is currently one of the main occupations of hospital pharmacy services (PEX). There are several questionnaires to measure the satisfaction of the PEX of a pharmacy service, and the results of these questionnaires can generate improvement actions that result in satisfaction. OBJECTIVES: To verify if a satisfaction questionnaire for outpatients is valid for the generation of improvements in the care provided, and if after its implementation, the same questionnaire is able to detect changes in satisfaction. MATERIAL AND METHOD: Prospective study of a single center carried out in a tertiary hospital in 2015 and 2016. A questionnaire previously validated with 16 Likert-type items was used. Demographic and classification data were collected. A descriptive analysis was performed and the internal consistency was calculated using the Cronbach's α value. RESULTS: A total of 258 questionnaires were collected in 2015 and 493 in 2016. There were no differences in the baseline characteristics of the patients and users of the service. The items with the lowest satisfaction scores in 2015 (comfort of the waiting room, dispensing privacy, drug pick-up time and medication pick-up time) guided the improvement actions to be implemented. In 2016 there was an improvement in the waiting time until collection in 12.3% (p = 0.002); in the comfort of the waiting room 4.9% (p = 0.304); business hours for medication collection, 10.7% (p = 0.013); and in the confidentiality of the dispensation 4% (p = 0.292). The remaining scores fluctuated minimally, with no statistical significance at all. A 5.1% improvement in overall satisfaction was found (p < 0.001). Satisfaction values obtained as a whole were high. CONCLUSIONS: The satisfaction questionnaire is a valid instrument for generating actions to improve the care received in an outpatient unit of a pharmacy service. This same questionnaire is a tool to monitor the changes implemented to improve the care received.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: Traditionally, health systems in sub-Saharan Africa have focused on acute conditions. Few data exist on the readiness of African health facilities (HFs) to address the growing burden of chronic diseases (CDs), specifically chronic, non-communicable diseases (NCDs). METHODS: A stratified random sample of 28 urban and rural Ugandan HFs was surveyed to document the burden of selected CDs by analysing the service statistics, service availability and service readiness using a modified WHO Service Availability and Readiness Assessment questionnaire. Knowledge, skills and practice in the management of CDs of 222 health workers were assessed through a self-completed questionnaire. RESULTS: Among adult outpatient visits at hospitals, 33% were for CDs including HIV vs. 14% and 4% at medium-sized and small health centres, respectively. Many HFs lacked guidelines, diagnostic equipment and essential medicines for the primary management of CDs; training and reporting systems were weak. Lower-level facilities routinely referred patients with hypertension and diabetes. HIV services accounted for most CD visits and were stronger than NCD services. Systems were weaker in lower-level HFs. Non-doctor clinicians and nurses lacked knowledge and experience in NCD care. CONCLUSION: Compared with higher level HFs, lower-level ones are less prepared and little used for CD care. Health systems in Uganda, particularly lower-level HFs, urgently need improvement in managing common NCDs to cope with the growing burden. This should include the provision of standard guidelines, essential diagnostic equipment and drugs, training of health workers, supportive supervision and improved referral systems. Substantially better HIV basic service readiness demonstrates that improved NCD care is feasible.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: There is a paucity of studies on psychosocial disorders in clinic populations in Jamaica. Therefore, we sought to determine the prevalence and correlates of symptoms of depression and anxiety in a clinic population in western Jamaica. METHODS: A total of 338 participants from four outpatient clinics of the Western Regional Health Authority (WRHA) were screened for symptoms of depression and anxiety using questions from the Beck Depression Inventory-II and the Beck Anxiety Inventory. The Chi-square test was used to examine differences in symptoms of anxiety and depression by gender. Multivariate linear and logistic regression were used to examine the associations between symptoms and sociodemographic variables with significance set at p < 0.05. RESULTS: Approximately 30% of participants had moderate or severe depression symptoms while 18.6% had moderate or severe anxiety symptoms. Participants aged 30-39 years were more likely than older participants to have moderate or severe anxiety symptoms (odds ratio [OR]: 2.0, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.39, 5.56). Women reported a statistically significant higher prevalence of anxiety symptoms (10.0% vs 7.1%, p = 0.003). There was also a statistically significant difference between anxiety means by gender. Furthermore, income was found to be a significant predictor of anxiety for women only (p = 0.0113). Married persons were more likely than those who had never married to have moderate or severe anxiety symptoms (OR: 2.57, 95% CI: 1.14, 5.76). CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest that the prevalence of depression may be higher than global estimates in similar outpatient settings. Screening and intervention efforts may need to focus on younger persons, women, and married persons.


OBJETIVOS: Son escasos los estudios realizados sobre trastornos psicosociales en la población clínica de Jamaica. Por lo tanto, intentamos determinar la prevalencia y las correlaciones de los síntomas de depresión y ansiedad en una población clínica en Jamaica occidental. MÉTODOS: Un total de 338 participantes de cuatro clínicas de atención ambulatoria de la Dirección Regional de la Salud (conocida por sus siglas en inglés WRHA) fueron expuestos a una prueba de tamizaje a fin de detectar síntomas de depresión y ansiedad usando preguntas del Inventario de Depresión de Beck II y el Inventario de Ansiedad de Beck. La prueba de Chi-cuadrado fue utilizada para examinar las diferencias en los síntomas de ansiedad y depresión por género. Se usó la regresión lineal y logística multivariada para examinar las asociaciones entre los síntomas y las variables sociodemográficas con significación de p < 0.05. RESULTADOS: Aproximadamente el 30% de los participantes presentaron síntomas de depresión moderada o severa, mientras que el 18.6% presentaron síntomas de ansiedad severa o moderada. Los participantes con edad de 30 a 39 años eran más proclives a presentar síntomas de ansiedad moderada o severa (odds-ratio [OR]: 2.0, 95% intervalo de confianza [IC]: 1.39, 5.56) que los participantes de mayor edad. Las mujeres reportaron una prevalencia mayor, estadísticamente significativa, de los síntomas de ansiedad (10.0% vs 7.1%, p = 0. 003). También hubo una diferencia estadísticamente significativa entre los promedios de ansiedad por género. Además, se halló que los ingresos constituyen un predictor significativo de ansiedad sólo para las mujeres (p = 0.0113). Las personas casadas tenían más probabilidades de presentar síntomas de ansiedad moderada o severa (OR: 2.57, IC del 95%: 1,14, 5.76) que las personas que nunca se habían casado. CONCLUSIONES: Nuestros hallazgos sugieren que la prevalencia de la depresión puede ser superior a la que indican los estimados globales para pacientes externos similares. El estudio señala la posibilidad de que los esfuerzos de tamizaje e intervención deban centrarse en las personas más jóvenes, las mujeres y las personas casadas.

RESUMO

RESUMEN Se realizó una investigación aplicada, observacional, descriptiva, longitudinal y prospectiva en el período correspondiente al curso escolar 2008- 2009, que incluyó como muestra al universo de los estudiantes de Medicina, 11 de primer año y de segundo año, para un total de 22 y sus 24 profesores de la Carrera de Medicina, pertenecientes al Policlínico Universitario "Hermanos Cruz" de Pinar del Río. Los datos necesarios se obtuvieron previo consentimiento informado de los estudiantes incluidos en la investigación y sus profesores, a los que se les aplicaron instrumentos que permitieron determinar el estado en que se encuentran con relación al valor responsabilidad en actividades del proceso docente. Los profesores y alumnos fueron sometidos a una entrevista y observación de clases. Los datos recogidos fueron procesados por el método de estadística descriptiva empleándose frecuencias absolutas y relativas (%). Se obtuvo como principales resultados las carencias y dificultades en la formación del valor responsabilidad en los estudiantes de primero y segundo año de la Carrera de Medicina, fundamentalmente: deporte, cultura e investigación, persisten en los profesores aspectos insuficientes para lograr conformar el soporte apropiado que permita fortalecer el valor responsabilidad debido fundamentalmente a que son claustros jóvenes. Estos resultados permitieron elaborar una intervención que contribuirá a la formación del valor responsabilidad en todas las Universidades.


ABSTRACT An applied, observation, descriptive, longitudinal and prospective research was conducted during the academic course 2008-2009, which included as a sample the universe of the Medical students, 11 from the first and second academic years (22 the total) and their 24 professors of the Medical Major enrolled at "Hermanos Cruz" University Outpatient Clinic, Pinar del Rio. The necessary data were obtained by means of an informed consent of those students and professors included into the research, applying instruments to determine the state of the moral values of responsibility in the teaching-learning process. Professors and students were called to an interview and lecture's observation. Data were collected and processed using the descriptive statistics with absolute and relative frequencies (%). The main results showed lack and difficulties in the formation of the responsibility as moral values, principally in: sports, culture and research, persisting in professors insufficient aspects to achieve, in this young staff, the appropriate support to reinforce the moral values of responsibility. These results allowed to elaborate an intervention that will contribute to the reinforcement of the responsibility in all the universities.
