Author

Arméstar, Fernando, Almirall, Jordi, Módol, Josep Maria, Giménez, Montserrat, Roca, Josep, Sauca, Goretti, de la Torre, Maria, and Catalán, Beatriz

Abstract

Objetivo: Determinar los factores asociados con mortalidad en pacientes con neumonía neumocócica grave.Pacientes y Métodos: Estudio retrospectivo realizado en dos centros hospitalarios durante el periodo 1996-2009, con pacientes afectos de neumonía neumocócica bacteriémica grave. En todos los pacientes se aisló Streptococcus pneumoniae en el cultivo de sangre. Analizamos parámetros clínicos y analíticos.Resultados: Fueron incluidos 70 pacientes, los cuales fueron hospitalizados en unidades de medicina intensiva. La edad media fue 55 años (SD 16.28), el 64% fueron hombres. Los valores de los índices de gravedad fueron: APACHE II 19.8 (SD 9,75), SOFA: 7.6 (SD 3.9) y PSI: 113.43 (SD 32). Las sensibilidad antibiótica fue: penicilina el 80%, cefotaxima el 97 %, eritromicina el 81 % y el 98% a levofloxacino. La mortalidad hospitalaria fue del 25%. El análisis multivariado mostró que la resistencia a los macrólidos (Odds Ratio= 28.34 , 95% Confidence Interval= 1.61- 498.91, p = 0.02) y los índices de gravedad: APACHEII (Odds Ratio= 0.73 , 95% Confidence Interval= 0.59-0.89, p=0.002), SOFA (Odds Ratio= 0.60 , 95% Confidence Interval= 0.43-0.84, p=0.003) y PSI (Odds Ratio = 0.93, 95% Confidence Interval= 0.90-0.97, p=0.002) se correlacionaron con la mortalidad de estos enfermos.Conclusiones: La resistencia a los macrólidos y una alta puntuación en los índices de gravedad APACHE II, SOFA y PSI son factores asociados con mayor riesgo de mortalidad en pacientes con neumonía neumocócica grave.

Abstract

The aim of this study was to study the serotypes and clonal diversity of pneumococci causing invasive pneumococcal disease in Catalonia, Spain, in the era of 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13). In our region, this vaccine is only available in the private market and it is estimated a PCV13 vaccine coverage around 55% in children. A total of 1551 pneumococcal invasive isolates received between 2010 and 2013 in the Molecular Microbiology Department at Hospital Sant Joan de Déu, Barcelona, were included. Fifty-two serotypes and 249 clonal types—defined by MLST—were identified. The most common serotypes were serotype 1 (n = 182; 11.7%), 3 (n = 145; 9.3%), 19A (n = 137; 8.8%) and 7F (n = 122; 7.9%). Serotype 14 was the third most frequent serotype in children < 2 years (15 of 159 isolates). PCV7 serotypes maintained their proportion along the period of study, 16.6% in 2010 to 13.4% in 2013, whereas there was a significant proportional decrease in PCV13 serotypes, 65.3% in 2010 to 48.9% in 2013 (p

PCV7 serotypes maintained their proportion along the period of study, 16.6% in 2010 to 13.4% in 2013, whereas there was a significant proportional decrease in PCV13 serotypes, 65.3% in 2010 to 48.9% in 2013 (p<0.01). This decrease was mainly attributable to serotypes 19A and 7F. Serotype 12F achieved the third position in 2013 (n = 22, 6.4%). The most frequent clonal types found were ST306 (n = 154, 9.9%), ST191 (n = 111, 7.2%), ST989 (n = 85, 5.5%) and ST180 (n = 80, 5.2%). Despite their decrease, PCV13 serotypes continue to be a major cause of disease in Spain. These results emphasize the need for complete PCV13 vaccination. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Introduction: Catheter sepsis is a constant and serious problem in our hospitals for the cost it generates, both in terms of morbidity and economics. It's becoming more frequent also in peripherally inserted catheters. Our study aims to know the importance and characteristics of peripheral venous catheter bacteremia in a general hospital., Material and Methods: Prospective and comparative analysis of all episodes of central and peripheral venous catheter-related bacteraemia, in 2009., Results: Twenty-eight episodes of catheter-related bacteraemia in a total of 25 patients. Sixteen episodes originated in central catheter (57.2%), 11 in peripheral (39.3%) and 1 in peripherally inserted central catheter (3.5%). Two cases of exitus directly related to the peripheral catheter infection., Etiology: 13 episodes of S. aureus (3 MRSA), including 8 in peripheral catheter (8/13, 61.5%), 12 episodes of plasma coagulase negative staphylococcus, including 2 in peripheral catheter (2/12, 16.6%)., Conclusions: Peripheral catheter-related bacteraemia is an emerging health problem with important clinical and prognostic connotations for patients. It is necessary continuous training on correct handling measures to prevent intravascular catheters infections including peripheral catheters in every hospital ward.

Abstract

The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy of a disinfectable needle-free connector in reducing the pass of micro-organisms to the lumen of the catheter. A prospective, controlled, experimental trial was performed in which a laboratory model simulated the insertion of a peripheral venous catheter. Catheters inserted in sterile conditions in a hemoculture bottle were closed with the disinfectable needle-free connector (study group) or with a cap (control group). After 9 days of contamination and manipulation of the connector and cap external surfaces, 100% of bottles in the control group were contaminated whereas 60% remained sterile in the study group. The disinfectable needle-free connector showed more resistance to the pass of microorganisms than the conventional cap according to our experimental model.

Abstract

Background and Objective: Hookworm infection is a worldwide intestinal parasitic disease affecting more than one billion people. It represents an important public health problem in rural areas of developing countries. In our environment, it is generally considered an imported disease due to the immigration process., Patients and Method: Retrospective observational study of African immigrants diagnosed with hookworm infection at the Immigration and Tropical Medicine Unit of the Hospital of Mataró over the period 1984-1999., Results: We identified 285 patients, mainly young males, from Gambia or Senegal, with a precarious job who had arrived in Spain 3 years earlier or less. Abdominal pain was the commonest reason for consultation (28.8%) cases. Non digestive symptoms were 35.6% and 4.6% remained assymptomatic. 60% had a concomitant infectious disease. Laboratory tests showed iron-deficiency anemia in 28.4% and eosinophilia in 52.3%. 70% of patients did not come to visit after treatment., Conclusions: Microbiologic stool examination is recommended as part of the health assessment of immigrants from countries where hookworm infection is highly prevalent, even in the absence of abdominal symptoms or abnormalities of the red and white blood series.

Abstract

Background: Immigrants can carry diseases characteristic from their countries of origin. These are known as imported diseases (ID) and can be classified into tropical diseases (TD) or cosmopolitan diseases (CD). The aim of this study was to analyse the ID in African immigrants and evaluate their repercussion in the Spanish Public Health., Patients and Method: Observational study, retrospective protocol, carried from 1984 to 1994 in African immigrants seen in a reference Hospital. Not infectious chronic ID were excluded. The repercussion in public health was divided in 3 categories according to transmission risk to the host population: a) ID without current risk; b) ID with potential risk and, c) ID of risk., Results: 1,321 African immigrants were considered. Most of them were from Sub-Saharan Africa. The most frequent TD were helminthiases and among CD, tuberculosis, sexually transmitted diseases and parasitoses. ID without transmission risk were 26.7% (2.4% CD and 24.3% TD), ID with potential risk 35.2% (33.6% CD and 1.6% TD) and ID with risk 38% (all CD)., Conclusions: The CD and their association with poverty suppose a higher risk of transmission to the host country population. Global policies of helping social and economic insertion of immigrant populations, combined with international health collaboration, will rebound positively in the general population's health.
