The Peruvian health system is limited in providing specialized care for patients with clefts because there are an insufficient number of hospitals and few specially trained doctors in rural areas of the country. The most common model of care in these areas is the surgical mission wherein experienced cleft surgeons perform surgeries and teach local doctors. The purpose of this research was to identify the differences in outcome between the surgical mission trip and the referral center model of care provided by the same team.Type

Abandono de la terapia nutricional y pérdida de peso en pacientes bariátricos: Cohorte retrospectiva en Lima-PerúBernabé Ortiz, Antonio; Baquerizo, Pamela; Carbone, Camila; Giacchetti, Monica (Universidad Peruana de Ciencias Aplicadas (UPC)PE, 2015-11-02)Objetivos: Determinar la proporción de pacientes que cumplen los criterios internacionales de gastrectomía en manga así como estimar la asociación entre el porcentaje de pérdida de peso en el primer, tercer y sexto mes del tratamiento nutricional con la tasa de abandono del mismo. Materiales y métodos: Estudio de tipo cohorte retrospectivo realizado con historias clínicas de pacientes con gastrectomía en manga laparoscópica operados desde el 2008 hasta marzo 2014 en una clínica privada. Dos fueron las variables resultado de interés: la elegibilidad para cirugía bariátrica según criterios internacionales (IMC ≥40 kg/m2o ≥ 35 kg/m2 con comorbilidades) y el abandono antes o durante (inasistencia por más de 60 días desde la consulta previa sin haber sido dado de alta (IMC < 25)) el tratamiento nutricional. La exposición fue el porcentaje de peso perdido en las primeras cincos semanas después de la cirugía (< 10% vs. ≥ 10%). Se utilizaron modelos de regresión de Poisson y se calcularon riesgos relativos y sus respectivos intervalos de confianza al 95% (IC95%). Resultados: La muestra estuvo compuesta por datos de 423 historias clínicas de pacientes bariátricos, 294 (69.5%) fueron mujeres, edad media 39.2 (DE: 12.3) años. Solo 117 (27.7%) pacientes cumplieron con los requisitos establecidos para la cirugía, y 48 de esos 117 (41%) abandonaron el tratamiento nutricional antes de iniciarlo. Controlando por sexo y edad y tomando como referencia aquellos que perdieron <10% de peso, los que perdieron ≥10% del peso inicial redujeron el riesgo de abandonar el tratamiento nutricional (RR = 0.10; IC95% 0.01–0.68) en el primer mes. Conclusión: A pesar de las recomendaciones internacionales, una gran proporción de los pacientes de cirugía bariátrica no cumple los requisitos. La incidencia de abandono antes y durante el tratamiento nutricional es alta. Los resultados resaltan la necesidad de tener guías para el manejo de cirugía bariátrica en nuestro contexto.Acceso abierto

Postoperative Complications in Patients with Unrecognized Obesity Hypoventilation Syndrome Undergoing Elective Non-cardiac SurgeryKaw, Roop; Bhateja, Priyanka; Paz y Mar, Hugo; Hernández, Adrian V.; Ramaswamy, Anuradha; Aboussouan, Loutfi S.; Deshpande, Abhishek (American College of Chest Physicians, 2015-06-24)BACKGROUND: Among patients with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) a higher number of medical morbidities are known to be associated with those that have obesity hypoventilation syndrome (OHS) compared to OSA alone. OHS can therefore pose a higher risk of postoperative complications after elective non-cardiac surgery (NCS) and is often unrecognized at the time of surgery. The objective of this study was to retrospectively identify patients with OHS and compare their postoperative outcomes with those who have OSA alone. METHODS: Patients meeting criteria for OHS were identified within a large cohort of patients with OSA who underwent elective NCS at a major tertiary care center. We identified postoperative outcomes associated with OSA and OHS as well as the clinical determinants of OHS (BMI, AHI). Multivariable logistic or linear regression models were used for dichotomous or continuous outcomes, respectively. RESULTS: Patients with hypercapnia from definite or possible OHS, and overlap syndrome are more likely to develop postoperative respiratory failure [OR: 10.9 (95% CI 3.7-32.3), p<0.0001], postoperative heart failure (p<0.0001), prolonged intubation [OR: 5.4 (95% CI 1.9-15.7), p=0.002), postoperative ICU transfer (OR: 3.8 (95% CI 1.7-8.6), p=0.002]; longer ICU (beta coefficient: 0.86; SE: 0.32, p=0.009) and hospital length of stay (beta coefficient: 2.94; SE: 0.87, p=0.0008) when compared to patients with OSA. Among the clinical determinants of OHS, neither BMI nor AHI showed associations with any postoperative outcomes in univariable or multivariable regression. CONCLUSIONS: Better emphasis is needed on preoperative recognition of hypercapnia among patients with OSA or overlap syndrome undergoing elective NCSAcceso abierto
