RESUMO

Introducción: El suicidio es la tercera causa de muerte de jóvenes entre 15 y 19 años. Ante esto, los ambientes escolares pueden favorecer el fomento de la salud mental de los adolescentes, permitir la identificación temprana de factores de riesgo y aportar en la prevención de conductas suicidas. Una de las estrategias de prevención es el entrenamiento de "gatekeepers". Objetivo: Determinar el efecto del programa "Abriendo Puertas para la Vida" sobre conocimientos, actitudes y prácticas en prevención de conductas suicidas en un grupo de profesores de secundaria de una institución educativa de San Juan de Pasto, Colombia. Materiales y métodos: Estudio preexperimental, con un grupo de intervención y medidas pre y pos-seguimiento. Participaron nueve docentes voluntarios durante dos jornadas de formación. Resultados: Se identificaron cambios positivos en conocimientos, actitudes y prácticas de los participantes entre pretest y postest, en la mayoría de las subdimensiones evaluadas; sin embargo, tres años después, estos cambios se mantuvieron tan solo en conocimientos sobre las conductas suicidas y en actitudes hacia la prevención. Conclusión: El programa "Abriendo Puertas para la Vida" evidenció efectividad y pertinencia, sin embargo, el mantenimiento de sus efectos requiere de acciones de seguimiento y acompañamiento a los docentes formados.


Introduction: Suicide is the third cause of death in young people aged between 15 to 19 years. Thus, school environments can promote mental health of adolescents through early identification of risk factors and prevention of suicidal behaviors. One prevention strategy is the training of "gatekeepers". Objective: To determine the impact of the "Opening Doors to Life" program on the knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding prevention of suicidal behavior in a set of high school teachers from an educational institution in San Juan de Pasto, Colombia. Materials and methods: A pre-experimental study with an intervention group and pre- and post-follow-up measurements. Nine volunteer teachers participated during two training sessions. Results: Positive changes regarding knowledge, attitudes, and practices of the participants during pretest and posttest were observed for the majority of evaluated sub-dimensions. However, after three years, the positive measures prevailed only for knowledge about suicidal behavior and attitudes toward prevention. Conclusion: The "Opening Doors to Life" program showed effectiveness and relevance. However, maintaining its impact requires follow-up actions and support of trained teachers.

RESUMO

Objetivos: Explorar las actitudes de los fisioterapeutas de Puerto Rico: 1) hacia el acceso directo (AD), 2) las implicaciones para la profesión, la práctica y los servicios de salud, y 3) la implementación del AD a través de un cambio en política pública. Métodos: El diseño fue exploratorio transversal, no experimental y con un enfoque cuantitativo. Los participantes eran fisioterapeutas con licencia vigente, mayores de 21 años de edad, con cualquier grado académico en fisioterapia y que actualmente ejercen la práctica en Puerto Rico. Fueron excluidos fisioterapeutas sin experiencia clínica, que estaban completando un grado doctoral transicional o con experiencia ejerciendo con AD. Para abordar los objetivos de investigación, se construyó un cuestionario, cuyo contenido fue validado por 4 fisioterapeutas expertos utilizando el modelo de Lawshe modificado por Tristán. Resultados: Participaron de este estudio 100 fisioterapeutas. El 96% de los participantes estuvo de acuerdo con la implementación del AD en Puerto Rico. El 83% indicó estar preparado para ejercer la profesión por AD. El 55% entienden que fisioterapeutas con grado doctoral están más preparados para ejercer por AD. El 59% indicó que el AD debe estar restringido por nivel educativo y/o experiencia. Conclusión: La actitud de los fisioterapeutas en Puerto Rico respecto al AD resultó ser favorable, independientemente del grado académico, ya que están a favor con incorporar el AD a la fisioterapia, se sienten preparados para ejercer por AD y consideran el AD beneficioso para los pacientes, la práctica y la profesión. (AU)


Objectives: To explore the attitudes of physiotherapists in Puerto Rico: (1) towards direct access (DA), (2) the implications for the profession, practice, and health services, and (3) the implementation of DA through a change in public policy. Methods: The design was cross-sectional exploratory, non-experimental, and quantitative in nature. Participants were licensed physiotherapists, over 21 years old, with any academic degree in physiotherapy, currently practicing in Puerto Rico. Physiotherapists without clinical experience, those completing a transitional doctoral degree, or with experience practicing with DA were excluded. To address the research objectives, a questionnaire was constructed, whose content was validated by 4 expert physiotherapists using the Lawshe model modified by Tristán. Results: One hundred physiotherapists participated in this study. 96% of participants agreed with the implementation of DA in Puerto Rico. However, only 83% indicated being prepared to practice the profession through DA. 55% understood that physiotherapists with doctoral degrees were better prepared to practice through DA. 59% indicated that DA should be restricted based on educational level and/or experience. Conclusion: The attitude of physiotherapists in Puerto Rico towards DA was favorable regardless of academic degree. They are in favor of incorporating DA into physiotherapy, feel prepared to practice through DA, and consider it beneficial for patients, practice, and the profession. (AU)

RESUMO

Introducción: la teleconsulta es una herramienta asistencial útil en el manejo multidisciplinar de pacientes con indicación de nutrición enteral domiciliaria (NED). El empleo de diferentes herramientas de teleconsulta de NED, como ocurre en el Sistema Andaluz de Salud (SAS), conlleva heterogeneidad en los procesos de derivación entre los servicios de Atención Primaria (AP) y hospitalaria en una misma región. Objetivos: consensuar perfiles de pacientes y conjunto de datos mínimos necesarios para garantizar una derivación adecuada a la teleconsulta de NED, independientemente de la herramienta existente. Estos aspectos consensuados en Andalucía pueden servir de referencia en otras regiones. Métodos: se siguieron tres pasos consecutivos: a) revisión no sistemática de la literatura indexada sobre la teleconsulta en nutrición clínica en España; b) encuesta para conocer la implementación y las necesidades no satisfechas de las herramientas de teleconsulta en los hospitales públicos andaluces; y c) reuniones de trabajo y consenso de 14 profesionales sanitarios de AP (n = 4) y endocrinología y nutrición clínica hospitalaria (n = 10). Resultados: se consensuaron tres formularios de derivación en los que se definieron tres perfiles de pacientes, con el correspondiente conjunto mínimo de datos necesario para solicitar la teleconsulta de NED. El equipo de AP debe proporcionar este conjunto mínimo de datos al especialista en nutrición clínica a través de una herramienta de teleconsulta, implementada en el SAS. Conclusiones: tres formularios consensuados entre profesionales sanitarios involucrados en el proceso de derivación sirven para estandarizar la solicitud de teleconsulta de NED entre equipos asistenciales en función de perfiles de pacientes.(AU)


Introduction: teleconsultation is a useful healthcare tool in the multidisciplinary management of patients with indications of home enteral nutrition (HEN). The use of different teleconsultation platforms, as it happens in the Andalusian Health System (SAS), results in heterogeneous referral processes between Primary Care and hospital services in the same region. Objectives: to establish a consensus on patient profiles and the minimum data set necessary to guarantee an adequate referral to NED teleconsultation regardless of the existing platform. These agreed aspects in Andalusia can serve as a reference in other regions. Methods: three consecutive steps were followed: a) non-systematic review of the indexed literature on teleconsultation in clinical nutrition in Spain; b) survey to know the implementation and unmet needs of teleconsultation platforms in Andalusian public hospitals; and c) working meetings and consensus of 14 health professionals of Primary Care (n = 4) and endocrinology and hospital clinical nutrition (n = 10). Results: three referral forms were agreed in which three patient profiles were defined, with the corresponding minimum set of data necessary to request NED teleconsultation. The Primary Care team should provide this set of data to the clinical nutrition specialist via a teleconsultation platform, implemented in the SAS. Conclusions: three agreed forms between healthcare professionals involved in the referral process serve to standardize the request for teleconsultation of NED between healthcare teams based on patient profiles.(AU)

RESUMO

Introduction and objectives: Carotid cross-clamping during carotid endarterectomy might lead to intraoperative neurologic deficits, increasing stroke/death risk. If deficits are detected, carotid shunting has been recommended to reduce the risk of stroke. However, shunting may sustain a specific chance of embolic events and subsequently incurring harm. Current evidence is still questionable regarding its clear benefit. The aim is to determine whether a policy of selective shunt impacts the complication rate following an endarterectomy. Material and methods: From January 2013 to May 2021, all patients undergoing carotid endarterectomy under regional anesthesia with intraoperative neurologic alteration were retrieved. Patients submitted to selective shunt were compared to a non-shunt group. A 1:1 propensity score matching (PSM) was performed. Differences between the groups and clinical outcomes were calculated, resorting to univariate analysis. Results: Ninety-eight patients were selected, from which 23 were operated on using a shunt. After PSM, 22 non-shunt patients were compared to 22 matched shunted patients. Concerning demographics and comorbidities, both groups were comparable to pre and post-PSM, except for chronic heart failure, which was more prevalent in shunted patients (26.1%, P=0.036) in pre-PSM analysis. Regarding 30-day stroke and score Clavien–Dindo≥2, no significant association was found (P=0.730, P=0.635 and P=0.942, P=0.472, correspondingly, for pre and post-PSM). Conclusions: In this cohort, resorting to shunting did not demonstrate an advantage regarding 30-day stroke or a Clavien–Dindo≥2 rates. Nevertheless, additional more extensive studies are mandatory to achieve precise results concerning the accurate utility of carotid shunting in this subset of patients under regional anesthesia.(AU)


Introducción y objetivos: El pinzamiento carotídeo durante la endarterectomía carotídea podría provocar déficits neurológicos intraoperatorios, lo que aumenta el riesgo de accidente cerebrovascular/muerte. Si se detectan déficits, se ha recomendado la derivación carotídea para reducir el riesgo de accidente cerebrovascular. Sin embargo, la derivación puede sostener una posibilidad específica de eventos embólicos y, posteriormente, provocar daños. La evidencia actual aún es cuestionable con respecto a su claro beneficio. El objetivo es determinar si una política de derivación selectiva afecta la tasa de complicaciones después de una endarterectomía. Material y métodos: Desde enero de 2013 hasta mayo de 2021 se recuperaron todos los pacientes sometidos a endarterectomía carotídea bajo anestesia regional con alteración neurológica intraoperatoria. Los pacientes sometidos a derivación selectiva se compararon con un grupo sin derivación. Se realizó una coincidencia de puntuación de propensión (PSM) 1:1. Se calcularon las diferencias entre los grupos y los resultados clínicos recurriendo al análisis univariado. Resultados: Se seleccionaron 98 pacientes, de los cuales 23 fueron intervenidos mediante derivación. Después de la PSM se compararon 22 pacientes sin derivación con 22 pacientes emparejados con derivación. Con respecto a la demografía y las comorbilidades, ambos grupos fueron comparables a los de antes y después de la PSM, excepto por la insuficiencia cardíaca crónica, que fue más prevalente en los pacientes con derivación (26,1%, p=0,036) en el análisis previo a la PSM. En cuanto al accidente cerebrovascular a los 30 días y la puntuación de Clavien-Dindo≥2, no se encontró asociación significativa (p=0,730, p=0,635 y p=0,942, p=0,472, correspondientemente, para pre y post-PSM). Conclusiones: En esta cohorte recurrir a la derivación no demostró una ventaja con respecto a las tasas de ictus a los 30 días o Clavien-Dindo≥2...(AU)

RESUMO

Introducción. La cirugía bariátrica y metabólica (CBM) es efectiva en lograr pérdida de peso a corto plazo. Sin embargo, existe evidencia limitada en desenlaces clínicos y metabólicos a largo plazo. Métodos. Estudio longitudinal retrospectivo con pacientes llevados a baipás gástrico en Y de Roux (BGYR) o gastrectomía en manga (MG) por laparoscopia en Bogotá, D.C., Colombia, entre 2013 y 2021. El cambio de peso, control de comorbilidades y resultados metabólicos se recopilaron al inicio del estudio, 3, 6 y 12 meses después de cirugía, y anualmente hasta el quinto año. Las tasas de control de comorbilidades se evaluaron mediante la prueba Kaplan-Meier. Se utilizó un modelo de riesgos proporcionales de Cox para evaluar el efecto de covariables en la reganancia de peso. Resultados. De 1092 pacientes con CBM (71,4 % MG y 28,6 % BGYR), 67 % eran mujeres, con mediana de edad 48 años e índice de masa corporal de 35,5 Kg/m2. Después de cinco años de seguimiento, la tasa de control en diabetes mellitus fue 65,5 %, en hipertensión 56,6 % y en dislipidemia 43,6 %. La tasa de reganancia de peso fue 28 %, sin diferencias entre MG vs BGYR (p=0,482). El tiempo promedio hasta peso nadir fue 14 meses. La edad al momento de CBM fue el mejor predictor independiente de reganancia (HR=1,02, IC95% 1,01-1,04), pero con efecto clínico modesto. Conclusión. La CBM es segura y muestra beneficios a largo plazo en la pérdida de peso y control de comorbilidades en población colombiana.


Introduction. Bariatric and metabolic surgery (BMS) has shown its efficacy in achieving short-term weight loss. However, there is limited evidence regarding long-term clinical and metabolic outcomes. Methods. Retrospective longitudinal study with patients who underwent laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and sleeve gastrectomy (SG) interventions in Bogotá, Colombia, between 2013 and 2021. Weight change, comorbidity control, and metabolic outcomes were collected at the onset, 3-, 6-, and 12-month post-surgery, and annually up to the fifth year. Comorbidity control rates were assessed using the Kaplan-Meier test. A Cox proportional hazards model was used to evaluate the effect of covariates on weight regain. Results. Of 1092 patients with BMS (71.4% SG and 28.6% RYGB), 67% were women, with a median age of 48 years, BMI 35.5 kg/m2. After five years of follow-up, the control rate in diabetes mellitus was 65.5%, in hypertension 56.6%, and dyslipidemia 43.6%. The weight regain rate was 28% with no differences between SG vs RYGB (p=0.482). The mean time to nadir weight was 14 months. Age at the time of BMS was the best independent predictor of weight regain (HR=1.02, 95%CI: 1.01-1.04), but with a modest clinical effect. Conclusion. BMS is safe and shows long-term benefits in weight loss and control of comorbidities in Colombian population.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) is one of the most frequent neurosurgical emergencies, most of them due to intracranial aneurysm rupture. Hydrocephalus is a prevalent complication with a high rate of complications. The aims of this study are to identify predictors of shunt-dependent hydrocephalus following aneurysmal SAH and to quantify the complications arising from ventriculoperitoneal shunts. METHODS: This study is about an observational retrospective analytic study of the patients with spontaneous SAH admitted to Miguel Servet Universitary Hospital between 2017 and 2022. Patients' clinical and radiological characteristics, type of treatment, diagnoses and treatment of hydrocephalus, complications of ventriculoperitoneal shunts and mortality are some of the data achieved in this study. A descriptive study of these variables has been done and, subsequently, the most relevant variables have been statistically analysed to identify patients with increasing risk of shunting for hydrocephalus. This study was authorized by the Ethics Committee prior to its elaboration. RESULTS: A total of 359 patients with spontaneous SAH were admitted to Miguel Servet Universitary Hospital between 2017 and 2022, with an intrahospitalary death rate of 25.3%. 66.3% of the total of patients with SAH were due to intracranial aneurysm rupture (n = 238). 45.3% of the patients with aneurysmal SAH required an external ventricular drain (EVD) to treat acute hydrocephalus. 11.7% (n = 28) developed a shunt-dependent hydrocephalus. Statistical significance was found between shunt-dependent hydrocephalus and the following: high score in modified Fisher scale and placement of EVD. The mean interval from EVD to ventriculoperitoneal shunt placement was 26.1 days. The mean rate of reoperation of patients after shunt was 17.7%, mostly due to infection. CONCLUSIONS: The most significant risk factor for shunt-dependent hydrocephalus after aneurysmal SAH was high Fisher grade and previous need of EVD. Shunt infections is the main cause of shunt reoperation. Early shunt placement in selected patients might reduce the rate of infectious complications.

RESUMO

El vértigo es un síntoma común que puede tener diversas causas y requerir un enfoque integral para su diagnóstico y tratamiento desde atención primaria. Se propone un algoritmo de diagnóstico basado en la clasificación propuesta por la Comisión de Otoneurología de la SEORL-PCF, que facilita la clasificación de los diferentes tipos de vértigo y proporciona criterios de derivación de pacientes desde atención primaria hacia otras especialidades. Se realiza una revisión de los tratamientos disponibles basada en la causa subyacente para un manejo terapéutico adecuado. Se espera que este documento se convierta en una herramienta valiosa para los profesionales que atienden a pacientes con vértigo. El documento se basa en evidencia científica y en la experiencia de expertos en el campo de las diferentes especialidades médicas implicadas; y busca mejorar la comprensión y el abordaje clínico del vértigo agudo desde atención primaria.(AU)


Vertigo is a common symptom that can have various causes and may require a comprehensive approach for its diagnosis and treatment from primary care. A diagnostic algorithm based on the classification proposed by the Otoneurology Commission of the SEORL-PCF is suggested, which facilitates the classification of the different types of vertigo and provides referral criteria for patients from primary care to other specialties. A review of the available treatments based on the underlying cause is conducted for appropriate therapeutic management. This document is expected to become a valuable tool for professionals treating patients with vertigo. The document is based on scientific evidence and on the experience of experts in the field from various medical specialties; and seeks to improve the understanding and clinical approach to acute vertigo from primary care.(AU)

RESUMO

COPD is a disease with a high prevalence that diminishes the quality of life of many patients. Despite this, there are still high rates of under-diagnosis in Spain, partly due to a lack of recognition of the pathology by patients. In this context, the role played by primary care teams becomes fundamental, as they are one of the first lines of entry into the health system. In this paper we explain the different COPD profiles that may be present, and update the tools for diagnosis and treatment, which, together with an attitude of active suspicion of the disease, can help in the correct management of patients, whether they are undiagnosed or have subsequent complications.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Patients undergoing radical cystectomy with urinary diversions (UD) are at increased risk of bone fractures compared to the general population. Although a loss of bone mineral density (BMD) has been described in patients with UD, we still do not know with certainty why these patients follow this tendency. OBJECTIVE: We performed a systematic review of the available literature to analyze the prevalence of osteoporosis and bone alterations in patients with ileal UD and the possible associated risk factors. EVIDENCE ACQUISITION: We systematically searched PubMed® and Cochrane Library for original articles published before December 2022 according to PRISMA guidelines. EVIDENCE SYNTHESIS: A total of 394 publications were identified. We selected 12 studies that met the inclusion criteria with 496 patients included. Six of the twelve studies showed decreased BMD values. Prevalence of osteoporosis was specified in three articles, with values ranging ​​from 0% to 36%. Risk factors such as age, sex, body mass index, metabolic acidosis and renal function appear to have an impact on bone tissue reduction, while type of UD, follow-up, 25-hydroxyvitamin D and parathormone had less evidence or contradictory data. The heterogeneity of the studies analyzed could led to interpretation bias. CONCLUSIONS: UD are associated with multiple risk factors for osteoporosis and bone fractures. Identifying patients at highest risk and establishing diagnostic protocols in routine clinical practice are essential to reduce the risk of fractures and the resulting complications.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To use third ventricle morphometric variables as a tool for the selection of patients with idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus (iNPH) who are candidates for ventriculoperitoneal shunts (VPS). MATERIAL AND METHODS: Retrospective study enrolling patients with iNPH. Katzman infusion test was performed and a Rout > 12 mmHg/mL/min was considered a positive result. The transverse diameter and the volume of the third ventricle were measured in the preoperative MRI. Postoperative improvement was assessed with the NPH score. The results were analysed with SPSS software. RESULTS: 52 patients with a mean age of 76 years were analysed. There was no difference in the diameter of the third ventricle among patients with a positive result and those with a negative result in the infusion test (12.28 vs 11.68 mm; p = 0.14). Neither were difference detected in the ventricle volume of both groups (3.6 vs 3.5cc; p = 0.66). Those patients who improved after VPS had a smaller third ventricle compared to those who did not respond after surgery (11.85 mm vs. 12.96 mm; p = 0.009). Diameter and volume of third ventricle present a significant strong correlation (Pearson correlation coefficient = 0.72; p < 0.0001). CONCLUSION: Morphometric variables of third ventricle may be useful in predicting a good response to VPS in patients with idiopathic normal pressure hydrocephalus.

RESUMO

Introduction: Introduction: teleconsultation is a useful healthcare tool in the multidisciplinary management of patients with indications of home enteral nutrition (HEN). The use of different teleconsultation platforms, as it happens in the Andalusian Health System (SAS), results in heterogeneous referral processes between Primary Care and hospital services in the same region. Objectives: to establish a consensus on patient profiles and the minimum data set necessary to guarantee an adequate referral to NED teleconsultation regardless of the existing platform. These agreed aspects in Andalusia can serve as a reference in other regions. Methods: three consecutive steps were followed: a) non-systematic review of the indexed literature on teleconsultation in clinical nutrition in Spain; b) survey to know the implementation and unmet needs of teleconsultation platforms in Andalusian public hospitals; and c) working meetings and consensus of 14 health professionals of Primary Care (n = 4) and endocrinology and hospital clinical nutrition (n = 10). Results: three referral forms were agreed in which three patient profiles were defined, with the corresponding minimum set of data necessary to request NED teleconsultation. The Primary Care team should provide this set of data to the clinical nutrition specialist via a teleconsultation platform, implemented in the SAS. Conclusions: three agreed forms between healthcare professionals involved in the referral process serve to standardize the request for teleconsultation of NED between healthcare teams based on patient profiles.

RESUMO

En los últimos años, la trombosis de la vena porta entre los pacientes cirróticos se ha comportado como una entidad reconocida y cada vez más estudiada, no solo por su creciente incidencia, sino por la asociación con gravedad y mal pronóstico en cirrosis. Asimismo, se hacen objeto de estudio las terapias disponibles para el manejo tanto médico como quirúrgico de estos pacientes, lo que ha dado un papel importante a la derivación portosistémica transyugular intrahepática (TIPS). El uso de TIPS en esta población se posiciona como una alternativa de manejo aceptable, no solo por brindar mejoría en las complicaciones derivadas de la hipertensión portal, sino también por sus resultados prometedores en diferentes estudios sobre el flujo y la recanalización portal, y por su perfil de seguridad. Sin embargo, la eficacia, los efectos adversos a largo plazo y el pronóstico de dicha intervención en la compleja fisiopatología de la cirrosis deben continuar en estudio. El objetivo de este artículo es revisar los avances del uso de TIPS en el manejo de pacientes con cirrosis hepática y trombosis portal.


In recent years, portal vein thrombosis among cirrhotic patients has been a well-recognized and continuously studied entity, not only because of its increasing incidence but also because of its association with severity and poor prognosis in cirrhosis. Likewise, therapies available for both medical and surgical management in these patients are being studied, which has given an important role to the transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS). The use of TIPS in this population is positioned as an acceptable management alternative, not only because it provides improvement in complications derived from portal hypertension, but also because of its promising results in different studies on portal flow and recanalization upgrade, and for its safety. However, the efficacy, long-term adverse effects, and prognosis of this intervention in the complex pathophysiology of cirrhosis must continue to be studied. The objective of this article is to review the advances in the use of TIPS in the management of patients with liver cirrhosis and portal vein thrombosis.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES: Carotid cross-clamping during carotid endarterectomy might lead to intraoperative neurologic deficits, increasing stroke/death risk. If deficits are detected, carotid shunting has been recommended to reduce the risk of stroke. However, shunting may sustain a specific chance of embolic events and subsequently incurring harm. Current evidence is still questionable regarding its clear benefit. The aim is to determine whether a policy of selective shunt impacts the complication rate following an endarterectomy. MATERIAL AND METHODS: From January 2013 to May 2021, all patients undergoing carotid endarterectomy under regional anesthesia with intraoperative neurologic alteration were retrieved. Patients submitted to selective shunt were compared to a non-shunt group. A 1:1 propensity score matching (PSM) was performed. Differences between the groups and clinical outcomes were calculated, resorting to univariate analysis. RESULTS: Ninety-eight patients were selected, from which 23 were operated on using a shunt. After PSM, 22 non-shunt patients were compared to 22 matched shunted patients. Concerning demographics and comorbidities, both groups were comparable to pre and post-PSM, except for chronic heart failure, which was more prevalent in shunted patients (26.1%, P=0.036) in pre-PSM analysis. Regarding 30-day stroke and score Clavien-Dindo ≥2, no significant association was found (P=0.730, P=0.635 and P=0.942, P=0.472, correspondingly, for pre and post-PSM). CONCLUSIONS: In this cohort, resorting to shunting did not demonstrate an advantage regarding 30-day stroke or a Clavien-Dindo ≥ 2 rates. Nevertheless, additional more extensive studies are mandatory to achieve precise results concerning the accurate utility of carotid shunting in this subset of patients under regional anesthesia.

RESUMO

Vertigo is a common symptom that can have various causes and may require a comprehensive approach for its diagnosis and treatment from primary care. A diagnostic algorithm based on the classification proposed by the Otoneurology Commission of the SEORL-PCF is suggested, which facilitates the classification of the different types of vertigo and provides referral criteria for patients from primary care to other specialties. A review of the available treatments based on the underlying cause is conducted for appropriate therapeutic management. This document is expected to become a valuable tool for professionals treating patients with vertigo. The document is based on scientific evidence and on the experience of experts in the field from various medical specialties; and seeks to improve the understanding and clinical approach to acute vertigo from primary care.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To review the different types of urinary diversion surgeries (UDS) in order to recognize the expected findings in a postoperative study, using different imaging techniques. To recognize the main postoperative complications, both early and late. CONCLUSION: UDS are surgical procedures whose purpose is to redirect urine flow after cystectomy, generally in an oncologic context. The imaging evaluation of urological surgeries is often a radiological challenge, with CT being the most commonly used image modality. Therefore, it is essential to know the main surgical techniques, the expected postoperative findings and the optimization of imaging techniques for early diagnosis and correct evaluation of postoperative complications.

RESUMO

En los últimos años se ha constatado un aumento de la demanda asistencial en los servicios de salud mental y, por tanto, un aumento de interconsultas que se reci-ben desde atención primaria, siendo necesario filtrar dichas derivaciones para poder llevar a cabo una atención adecuada. El principal objetivo de este estudio es la evaluación del modelo de derivación del Servicio de Salud Mental del Departamento del Arnau de Vila-nova-Llíria mediante un análisis descriptivo y el seguimiento a lo largo de 6 meses de las interconsultas derivadas desde atención primaria y rechazadas por salud mental en el año 2019. Durante esos meses se recibieron 2029 interconsultas, de las cuales 623 fueron rechazadas, correspondiéndose estas a 504 pacientes. De estas personas, 164 fueron finalmente citadas en salud mental tras realizar una nueva interconsulta. Este análisis pone de manifiesto la necesidad de implementar un modelo colaborativo entre atención primaria y salud mental que se traduzca en una mayor detección de casos, una mejor derivación y, en definitiva, una mejor atención a los y las pacientes. (AU)


In recent years, there has been an increase in the demand for care in Mental Health services and, therefore, an increase in interconsultations received from Primary Care, making it necessary to filter said referrals in order to carry out adequate care. The main objective of this study is to evaluate the referral model of the Mental Health Ser-vice of the Department of Arnau de Vilanova-Llíria through the descriptive analysis and follow-up over 6 months of interconsultations derived from Primary Care and rejected by Mental Health in 2019. During those months, 2029 interconsultations were received, of which 623 were rejected, corresponding to 504 patients. Of these patients, 164 were fi-nally attended to in Mental Health after carrying out a new interconsultation. This analysis shows the need to implement a collaborative model between Primary Care and Mental Health that turns into greater cases detection, better referral sand, ultimately, a better patient care.

RESUMO

Introducció. La migració de la vàlvula de derivació ventriculoperitoneal (VDVP) és una complicació infreqüent, i quan es produeix a l’escrot és excepcional. Es presenta un cas de migració escrotal de la VDVP. Cas clínic. Lactant de sexe masculí amb antecedents de prematuritat i acondroplàsia, a qui es va col·locar una VDVP quan tenia un mes de vida. Al cap d’un mes de la cirurgia, acudeix a urgències per irritabilitat i augment de volum escrotal dret. Se li fa una radiografia que objectiva el catèter distal de la VDVP a la zona inguinal, i es confirma la migració escrotal del catèter. No presenta simptomatologia de disfunció valvular. Als tres mesos d’edat, mitjançant abordatge laparoscòpic, es tanca la persistència del conducte peritoneovaginal de manera percutània. Posteriorment no presenta complicacions inguinoescrotals durant un seguiment de 13 mesos. Comentari. En un pacient pediàtric prematur portador de VDVP, cal sospitar la persistència del conducte peritoneovaginal. Les troballes més freqüents són l’hidrocele i l’hèrnia inguinal, però també s’han descrit casos de migració escrotal de la VDVP. La migració escrotal es diagnostica per la troballa radiològica del catèter a la zona inguinal, i el tractament és el tancament del conducte peritoneovaginal. (AU)


Introducción. La migración de la válvula de derivación ventriculoperitoneal (VDVP) es una complicación infrecuente, y cuando se produce en el escroto es excepcional. Se presenta un caso de migración escrotal de la VDVP. Caso clínico. Lactante varón con antecedentes de prematuridad y acondroplasia, a quien se colocó una VDVP cuando tenía un mes de vida. Al mes de la cirugía acude a urgencias por irritabilidad y aumento de tamaño escrotal derecho. Se realiza una radiografía que objetiva el catéter de la VDVP a nivel inguinal, confirmando la migración escrotal del catéter. No presenta sintomatología de disfunción valvular. A los tres meses de edad, mediante abordaje laparoscópico, se realiza el cierre de la persistencia del conducto peritoneovaginal de manera percutánea. Posteriormente no presenta complicaciones inguinoescrotales durante un seguimiento de 13 meses. Comentario. En un paciente pediátrico portador de VDVP, se debe sospechar la persistencia del conducto peritoneovaginal. Los hallazgos más frecuentes son el hidrocele y la hernia inguinal, pero también se han descrito casos de migración escrotal de la VDVP. La migración escrotal se diagnostica por el hallazgo radiológico del catéter a nivel inguinal, y su tratamiento es el cierre del conducto peritoneovaginal. (AU)


Introduction. Ventriculoperitoneal shunt (VPS) valve migration is an infrequent complication, and when it occurs to the scrotum is exceptional. A case of scrotal migration of the VPS valve is presented. Case report. A male infant with a history of prematurity and achondroplasia underwent VPS placement at one month of age. One month after the surgery, he was seen in the Emergency Room due to irritability and increased right scrotal size. An X-ray showed the tip of the VPS catheter at the inguinal level, confirming the scrotal migration. Symptoms of valve dysfunction were not present. At three months of age, percutaneously closure of the persistent peritoneovaginal duct was performed laparoscopically, with no additional complications recorded at a 13-month follow-up. Comments. The persistence of the peritoneovaginal duct must always be considered in children with VPS. The most frequent findings are hydrocele and inguinal hernia, but cases of scrotal migration have also been described. Scrotal migration of the VPS can be diagnosed by the radiological finding of the tip of the catheter at the inguinal level, and treatment is the closure of the peritoneovaginal duct. (AU)

RESUMO

Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) shunt placement is a commonly performed procedure for patients with hydrocephalus of various etiologies. We present the case of a 68-year-old male patient treated with a ventriculoperitoneal shunt for obstructive hydrocephalus management. Eight years later, a computed tomography (CT) scan detected migration of distal catheter into the pulmonary artery. We conducted a systematic review in Medline database using PubMed search engine to identify previous cases and their management. Our literature review identified eighteen single case reports describing this complication and different strategies to attempt catheter retrieval. To the best authors’ knowledge, this is the first case where conservative management was chosen (AU)


Las derivaciones del líquido cefalorraquídeo son un procedimiento quirúrgico frecuente en el manejo de pacientes con hidrocefalia de diversas etiologías. Presentamos el caso de un paciente varón de 68 años portador de una derivación ventrículo-peritoneal por hidrocefalia obstructiva. Ocho años más tarde se detectó la migración del catéter distal de la derivación hacia la arteria pulmonar en una tomografía computarizada (TC) de tórax. Se ha realizado una revisión sistemática de la literatura en la base de datos MEDLINE utilizando el buscador PubMed para identificar casos descritos de esta complicación y su manejo. Se encontraron 18 casos clínicos que describían esta complicación y diferentes estrategias para intentar recuperar el catéter migrado. Con base en nuestra revisión, el caso descrito es, hasta la fecha, el único en el que se decidió no intentar recuperar el catéter migrado (AU)

RESUMO

Introducción. En los últimos 10 a 20 años, la psiquiatría de emergencia ha experimentado un progreso constante en cuanto a la prestación de servicios altamente especializados y enfocados en el paciente. Este aumento global refleja desafíos en accesibilidad y calidad de atención. En el contexto peruano, la legislación de salud mental y múltiples directrices clínicas orientan la prestación de servicios, no obstante, la insuficiencia de datos representa una barrera significativa para la toma de decisiones informadas. Objetivo. Examinar y reportar las características sociodemográficas y clínicas de los pacientes evaluados en la Unidad de Psiquiatría de Emergencia del Hospital Nacional Guillermo Almenara Irigoyen (HNGAI), de Lima, Perú, y analizar la naturaleza de los cuadros sintomatológicos y sindrómicos. Métodos. Estudio descriptivo, transversal. Se estudiaron las interconsultas recibidas por la Unidad de Psiquiatría de Emergencia del HNGAI, entre julio y diciembre del 2022. Se aplicó un análisis factorial de los síntomas. Resultados. En 1037 pacientes vistos en interconsulta, la edad promedio fue 41,15 ± 23,52 años. El 65,2 % fueron mujeres. La tasa de derivación fue de 1,18 %. Los trastornos más frecuentes fueron los del humor (27,8 %); los síntomas más frecuentes fueron el afecto ansioso (47,3 %), insomnio (38,8 %) y ánimo depresivo (32,6 %). Con respecto al tratamiento, el más usado fueron los antipsicóticos (50,4 %). El análisis factorial exploratorio de los síntomas mostró siete factores o componentes sindrómicos importantes: psicótico, delirium, depresivo-suicida, obsesivo-compulsivo, negativo, apático, ansioso. Conclusión. El paciente típico de esta muestra fue mujer al inicio de su cuarta década de vida. Los trastornos del humor y los síntomas ansiosos fueron los más comunes. El análisis factorial exploratorio mostró la presencia de siete síndromes. Es necesario incrementar la recopilación sistemática de datos e inversión en investigación en psiquiatría de emergencia, todo con la finalidad de mejorar la atención que se brinda a estos pacientes.


Introduction. In the last 10 to 20 years, emergency psychiatry has undergone consistent progress in providing highly specialized and patient-focused services. This global advancement reflects challenges in accessibility and quality of care. In the Peruvian context, mental health legislation and various clinical guidelines guide service provision; however, the lack of data constitutes a significant barrier to informed decision-making. Objective. The objective of this study was to examine and report the sociodemographic and clinical characteristics of patients evaluated at the Emergency Psychiatry Unit of the National Guillermo Almenara Irigoyen Hospital (HNGAI) in Lima, Peru, and analyze the nature of the symptomatic and syndromic profiles present. Methods. This was a descriptive, cross-sectional study. Interconsultations received by the Emergency Psychiatry Unit of HNGAI between July and December 2022 were analyzed. A factorial analysis of symptoms was conducted. Results. Out of a total of 1037 patients seen in interconsultation, the mean age was 41.15 ± 23.52 years. 65.2% of the patients were female. The referral rate was 1.18%. Mood disorders (27.8%) were the most frequent diagnoses, with anxious affect (47.3%), insomnia (38.8%), and depressive mood (32.6%) being the most common symptoms. Antipsychotics (50.4%) were the most used treatment modality. Exploratory factor analysis of symptoms revealed the presence of seven important syndromic factors: psychotic, delirium, depressive-suicidal, obsessive-compulsive, negative, apathetic, and anxious. Conclusion. The typical patient in this sample was a female in the early forties. Mood disorders and anxious symptoms were the most prevalent. Exploratory factor analysis identified the presence of seven syndromes. There is a need to increase systematic data collection and investment in emergency psychiatry research to enhance the care provided to these patients.

RESUMO

Introducción y objetivo La importancia de evaluar la autoestima y la calidad de vida de los pacientes con enfermedades crónicas se ha tornado cada vez más relevante. El estudio describe los resultados de la autoestima y la calidad de vida en pacientes con disfunción neurogénica y derivaciones urinarias continentes y/o procedimientos para enemas anterógrados. Materiales y métodos Estudio observacional transversal, en el que se incluyeron los pacientes con disfunción neurogénica quienes durante su tratamiento requirieron una derivación urinaria continente y/o un conducto para enemas anterógrados. La evaluación de autoestima se hizo con la escala de Rosenberg y la calidad de vida con el cuestionario KIDSCREEN-27. Variables medidas: sociodemográficas, clínicas y económicas. Se aplicó estadística descriptiva. Resultados La edad media de los 9 pacientes fue de 15,6 años. El tiempo promedio transcurrido desde la cirugía hasta la aplicación de los cuestionarios fue de 60,9±37,1 meses. Hubo una percepción de mejoría en 8 de los 9 pacientes y un puntaje de autoestima normal o superior en todos los casos. En la descripción de la actividad física y salud se encontró que 7 de los 9 jóvenes presentaban una percepción de buena salud en general. Se logró una reducción considerable en el uso de pañales luego de la intervención, pasando de consumir 6,2±1,4 pañales diarios a tan solo 1,7±1,3 pañales diarios. Conclusiones A pesar de las secuelas, comorbilidades y procedimientos, los resultados de la autoestima y calidad de vida en los pacientes con disfunción neurogénica son altos (AU)


Introduction and objective The importance of evaluating the self-esteem and quality of life of patients with a chronic disease has become increasingly relevant. The study describes self-esteem and quality of life outcomes in patients with neurogenic dysfunction and continent urinary diversions and/or antegrade enema procedures. Materials and methods Cross-sectional observational study, including patients with neurogenic dysfunction who required a continent urinary diversion and/or an antegrade enema conduit during their treatment. The self-esteem evaluation was done with the Rosenberg scale and the quality of life with the KIDSCREEN-27 questionnaire. Variables measured: socio-demographic, clinical and economic characteristics. Descriptive statistics were applied. Results The mean age of the 9 patients was 15.6 years, the mean time elapsed from surgery to application of the questionnaires was 60.9±37.1 months. With a perception of improvement in 8 of the 9 patients and a normal or higher self-esteem score in all cases. In the description of physical activity and health, it was found that 7 of the 9 young people presented a perception of good health in general. A considerable reduction in the use of diapers was achieved after the intervention, going from consuming 6.2±1.4 diapers per day to only 1.7±1.3 diapers per day. Conclusions Despite the sequelae, comorbidities and procedures, the results of self-esteem and quality of life in patients with neurogenic dysfunction are high (AU)
