Abstract

Se realizó un estudio descriptivo y retrospectivo para la evaluación económica parcial, del tipo descripción de costos, de la atención hospitalaria y vigilancia de laboratorio de 22 196 pacientes con presunto diagnóstico de dengue, ingresados en 3 hospitales del municipio de Santiago de Cuba durante la epidemia ocurrida en el bienio 2006-2007. Se determinaron los costos directos e indirectos de hospitalización y vigilancia de laboratorio, y se revisó detalladamente la documentación económica existente en los diferentes centros de costes. De la población santiaguera, 2,3 % estaba afectada por dengue, con preponderancia de la forma clásica y confirmación en 50 % de los que ingresaron. Predominaron los costos totales por concepto de hospitalización ($ 11 246 037,18), que representaron 95,1 %, de los cuales 79,8 % provenían de gastos directos y eran superiores a los originados por la vigilancia de laboratorio. Se recomendó realizar una estimación de los gastos generados por la lucha antivectorial y las campañas educativas durante esta epidemia, como complemento de esta investigación.A descriptive and retrospective study was carried out for the partial economic evaluation, of cost description type, of the hospital care and laboratory monitoring of 22 196 patients with presumptive diagnosis of dengue, admitted in 3 hospitals of Santiago de Cuba municipality during the epidemic occurred in 2006 - 2007. The direct and indirect costs of hospitalization and laboratory monitoring were determined, and the existing economic data were reviewed in detail in different cost centers. Of the Santiago population, 2.3% were affected by dengue, with a predominance of the classic form and confirmation in 50% of those admitted The total expenses for hospitalization ($11 246 037,18) prevailed, representing 95.1%, of which 79.8% came from direct expenses and were higher than those arising from laboratory monitoring. It was recommended to estimate the expenses incurred by the vector control and educational campaigns during this epidemic as a complement of this study.

Abstract

Objective: To analyze the profile of notified SARS cases and results obtained by a Public Health Reference Laboratory. Methodology: This is a cross-sectional study, developed from the notification forms and notified results of SRAG obtained through the LACEN-GO Surveillance Nucleus. The Epi info 3.5.4 software was used to transcribe the results, analyze the variables contained in the notification form and the Chi-square test (x2). Results: 691 SRAG notification forms and their reported results were analyzed. The average age of the cases was 33 years, the main biological sample was the secretion of the oro and nasopharynx and for the identification of the viral etiology, the RT-PCR was used. Regarding the epidemiological profile, most of the cases were female, non-pregnant, had an education higher than 8 years, were not vaccinated and there was a need for the use of antiviral drugs. The main signs and symptoms were cough, fever and respiratory distress. The main comorbidity was chronic cardiovascular disease. There was a need for hospitalization, the main radiological pattern found was the interstitial infiltrate and the intensive care unit was used. The main viral etiologic agent diagnosed was the Influenza A / H1N1pdm09 virus. Conclusion: The epidemiological surveillance of Influenza through SARS Notification, including surveillance of SG in sentinel units, is an important tool for public health and has become the fundamental factor for the prevention, containment, surveillance and therapeutic management of patients.

Abstract

Introduction. Influenza, the most contagious of the Acute Respiratory Infections (ARIs) is considered an emergent and re-emergent disease due to a wide range of variants among the world population. Since 1997 Avian Influenza virus (H5N1) is reported in the human population of various countries and the apparent endemic feature of this Southeast Asian virus type will continue to be a risk for the world public health. The international community needs to be committed and prepared to improve and strengthen ahead some of the deficiencies of surveillance and control systems at national level. One of the main issues to be considered is the detection of new virus variants before the pandemic this will allow time of preparation for the proper response. Materials and Methods. A total of 309 samples from patients with clinical diagnosis of ARI were processed during 2005-2006 using a scheme of molecular diagnosis. Four RT-PCR assays were implemented for the virological diagnosis of ARI caused by influenza virus. Results. Samples distribution was, 65.6% of the samples belonged to patients under 18 years old, 21.35% were from ambulatory patients, 18.4% from hospitalized patients and 60.1% from units belonging to the sentinel network. Of the total of the processed samples, 13 (4.2 %) were positive to influenza virus type B, 6 (1.9 %) to influenza virus type A and 4 (1.2 %) to influenza virus C. Three (50.0 %) of the positive samples to influenza type A were H3/N2 subtype virus and three could not be subtyped (50.0 %). Discussion. The advances in the molecular biology have revolutionized the biological sciences. At present, those tools are applied in studies of influenza virus to try to identify the frequent causes of lethal influenza epidemics. Reference laboratories worldwide have implemented the powerful tools of molecular biology for surveillance and control strategies, our laboratory is one to them. During 2005-2006 the influenza virus type B showed predominance of frequent circulation in Cuba. The results of this study show that the National Influenza Centre of Cuba has advanced diagnostic tools to cope with the surveillance of the ARIs at current conditions and is prepared to give response to the threatening influenza pandemic. However; it is necessary to continue to strengthen the national surveillance systems in order to increase the knowledge of the circulating virus in tropical countries. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

La Influenza, la más contagiosa de las Infecciones Respiratorias Agudas (IRAs), se considera actualmente como una enfermedad emergente y re-emergente, debido a la amplia circulación de variantes antiguas y nuevas entre la población mundial. A partir de 1997, se comienzan a detectar y reportar los brotes de Influenza Aviar (H5N1) en humanos, en varios países del mundo, y la aparente endemicidad de este subtipo en el Sudeste Asiático constituye y continuará siendo un riesgo para la Salud Pública a nivel mundial. Por otra parte, está la preparación y el compromiso de la comunidad científica internacional en mejorar tempranamente algunas deficiencias y obtener logros importantes en los Sistemas Nacionales de Vigilancia; uno de los primordiales lo constituye el hallazgo o detección de nuevos virus antes del comienzo de la pandemia, que permitirá disponer de tiempo para organizar una respuesta adecuada. Materiales y Métodos. Se procesaron un total de 309 muestras clínicas respiratorias de pacientes con diagnóstico clínico de IRA, durante la temporada 2005-2006, por medio de un esquema de diagnóstico molecular. Se introdujeron cuatro ensayos de Transcriptasa Reversa/Reacción en Cadena de la Polimerasa (RT/PCR) para el diagnóstico virológico de las IRAs producidas por los virus influenza. Resultados. El 65.6% de las muestras pertenecían a pacientes menores de 18 años de edad. 21.35% procedentes de pacientes ambulatorios, 18.4% de pacientes hospitalizados y 60.1% de unidades pertenecientes a la Red centinela. Del total de las muestras procesadas, 13 fueron positivas al tipo B de los virus influenza (4.2%), 6 al virus influenza A (1.9%) y 4 al virus influenza C (1.2%). Tres de las muestras positivas a influenza A fueron subtipificadas como H3/N2 (50%) y tres no pudieron ser subtipificadas (50%). Discusión. Los avances en la biología molecular han revolucionado a las ciencias biológicas; se aplican en la actualidad a los estudios de los virus influenza y se emple
