Abstract

Abstract Background Survivors of critical illness are frequently left with a long-lasting disability. We hypothesised that patients who developed delirium during ICU stay, compared with patients who did not, would have worse health-related quality of life following a critical illness. Methods Prospective longitudinal observational and analytical study assessing functional independence, frailty and perceived quality of life measured with the Barthel Index, the Clinical Frailty Scale, and the SF-36, comparing patients who developed delirium during ICU stay and patients who did not. The questionnaires were used at different times during the follow-up (upon ICU admission, at ICU discharge, at hospital discharge and 2 years after hospital discharge). Results In a cohort of 1462 patients, we matched 93 patients who developed delirium (delirium group) with 93 patients who did not develop delirium (no-delirium group). Of 156 completed questionnaires (84.7%), we observed that (a) in each of the two groups of patients, the scores related to functional independence (Barthel Index) and frailty (Clinical Frailty Scale) tended to improve over time (p

Abstract

Objectives: This study aimed to assess the real use of cefazolin for methicillin-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA) infective endocarditis (IE) in the Spanish National Endocarditis Database (GAMES) and to compare it with antistaphylococcal penicillin (ASP). Methods: Prospective cohort study with retrospective analysis of a cohort of MSSA IE treated with cloxacillin and/or cefazolin. Outcomes assessed were relapse; intra-hospital, overall, and endocarditis-related mortality; and adverse events. Risk of renal toxicity with each treatment was evaluated separately. Results: We included 631 IE episodes caused by MSSA treated with cloxacillin and/or cefazolin. Antibiotic treatment was cloxacillin, cefazolin, or both in 537 (85%), 57 (9%), and 37 (6%) episodes, respectively. Patients treated with cefazolin had significantly higher rates of comorbidities (median Charlson Index 7, P

Abstract

This paper presents the results of research that applies cognitive therapies associated with memory and mathematical problem-solving in elderly people. The exercises are programmed in an iPad and can be performed both from the Tablet and in an interactive format with a LEGO robot. The system has been tested with 2 men and 7 women over the age of 65 who have slight physical and cognitive impairment. Evaluation with the SUS resulted in a mean of 48.45 with a standard deviation of 5.82. The score of overall satisfaction was 84.37 with a standard deviation of 18.6. Interaction with the touch screen caused some usability problems due to the elderly people's visual difficulties and clicking accuracy. Future versions will include visualization with more color contrast and less use of the keyboard.

Abstract

This publication presents a complete description of a technological solution system for the physical and cognitive rehabilitation of elderly people through a biofeedback system, which is combined with a Lego robot. The technology used was the iOS's (iPhone Operating System) Objective-C programming language and its XCode programming environment; and SQLite in order to create the database. The biofeedback system is implemented by the use of two biosensors which are, in fact, a Microsoft band 2 in order to register the user's heart rate and a MYO sensor to detect the user's arm movement. Finally, the system was tested with seven elderly people from La Santa y Real Casa de la Misericordia nursing home in Bilbao. The statistical assessment has shown that the users are satisfied with the usability of the system, with a mean score of 79.29 on the System Usability Scale (SUS) questionnaire.

Abstract

Fundamento La actinomicosis es una enfermedad infecciosa de tipo supurativo y granulomatoso de evolucion cronica, causada por Actinomyces sp. y que afecta con mayor frecuencia al area cervicofacial. Objetivo Estudiar las caracteristicas de los pacientes con actinomicosis, en cuanto a antecedentes clinicos, presentacion clinica, metodo diagnostico, tratamiento y seguimiento. Pacientes y metodo Se ha realizado una revision retrospectiva de los casos de actinomicosis orocervicofacial microbiologica o anatomopatologicamente probados. Resultado Se estudian 5 pacientes, 2 varones y 3 mujeres, de edades comprendidas entre 25-69 anos. Cuatro pacientes tenian antecedentes de intervenciones quirurgicas y/o manipulaciones dentarias. Tres pacientes tenian la presentacion clasica de bultoma y fistulizacion y dos presentaban lesiones intraorales. En 4 enfermos se obtuvo un diagnostico microbiologico con cultivo positivo para A. israelii, y en el paciente restante mediante la citologia de un grano de azufre. Solamente la primera paciente recibio la pauta clasica de penicilina i.v., tres fueron tratados con cefalosporinas de tercera generacion, continuada posteriormente con amoxicilina oral durante 12 meses. La paciente 2 preciso una segunda intervencion quirurgica. El paciente 5, con un cuadro exclusivo intraoral, recibio una pauta corta de amoxicilina. No se han encontrado recidivas en el seguimiento. Conclusion La actinomicosis es una enfermedad infrecuente. Se precisa un elevado indice de sospecha y una buena colaboracion clinicomicrobiologica para poder obtener un diagnostico definitivo. La pauta clasica de penicilina i.v. y amoxicilina oral durante 6-12 meses es eficaz. La fase aguda del tratamiento con penicilina i.v. puede ser sustituida por cefalosporinas de tercera generacion.

Abstract

Resumen Objetivo Analizar la incidencia, epidemiologia y mortalidad de la bacteriemia y fungemia en un hospital terciario. Pacientes y metodos Estudio prospectivo de los enfermos adultos con bacteriemia o fungemia nosocomial ingresados en el Hospital de Cruces entre Febrero de 2000 y Febrero del 2001. Las infecciones fueron estratificadas segun la localizacion de los enfermos (salas de hospitalizacion vs. unidades de cuidados intensivos) presencia o no de neutropenia y servicio clinico. Resultados Durante el estudio, se detectaron 376 episodios de bacteriemia nosocomial en 318 enfermos (27 correspondian a candidemia). La incidencia fue de 9,7 episodios por cada 1.000 ingresos. Los microorganismos Gram-positivos acontecieron en el 50,4% de los episodios, Gram-negativos 40,7%, hongos 6,7% y anaerobios 2,2%. La bacteriemia fue monomicrobiana en el 92,8% de los casos. Los microorganismos mas comunes fueron: Staphylococcus coagulasa negativo (18,2%), Staphylococcus aureus (14,7%), E. coli (13,7%), y Enterococcus sp (12,2%). Candida sp.ocupo el sexto lugar (6,7%). La tasa de Staphylococcus aureus resistentes a meticilina fue del 13,8%. El 80% de los aislados de Enterococcus faecium mostro resistencia a ampicilina. La mortalidad global fue del 24,5%, considerandose relacionada con la infeccion en el 53,8% de los casos. Conclusiones El conocimiento en cada hospital de los datos epidemiologicos permite a los clinicos una mejor guia para el inicio de tratamiento empirico de la bacteriemia nosocomial.
