Abstract

Background: Maternity care practices such as skin-to-skin care, rooming-in, and direct breastfeeding are recommended, but it is unclear if these practices increase the risk of clinically significant COVID-19 in newborns, and if disruption of these practices adversely affects breastfeeding. Methods: We performed a retrospective cohort study of 357 mothers and their infants 0.2 for each). Infants who did not directly breastfeed, experience skin-to-skin care, or who did not room-in within arms' reach, were significantly less likely to be exclusively breastfed in the first 3 months, adjusting for maternal symptoms (p

Abstract

El surf es un deporte que ha incrementado su número de adeptos en Chile. Sin embargo, existen pocos estudios que describan las características antropométricas y físicas de estos deportistas en el medio nacional. Este estudio observacional descriptivo transversal, tuvo por objetivo describir las características antropométricas y físicas de surfistas experimentados chilenos. En 15 surfistas chilenos experimentados (edad: 27,1±5,2; talla: 1,77±0,04; peso: 74,1±6,3) se evaluó el somatotipo, control postural, los saltos Squat Jump (SJ) y Counter Movement Jump (CMJ), y el consumo máximo de oxígeno (VO2 Max.). El somatotipo promedio de la muestra fue endomorfo (2,7±0,5), mesomorfo (4,6±0,7) y ectomorfo (2,3±0,6). En la prueba de estabilidad postural se obtuvo un promedio de la velocidad y de área de desplazamiento del centro de presión de 7,2±1,3 mm/seg y 68,1±18,4 mm2 respectivamente. La altura promedio de los saltos SJ fue 33,2±5,3 cm y para el CMJ 35,8±5,1 cm. La media del VO2 Max. alcanzó los 47,2±5,6 (mL·min)/kg. Esta descripción reveló que el somatotipo de la muestra fue mesomórfico balanceado y que la capacidad aeróbica de estos deportistas fue alta en relación a la población general, pero intermedia en comparación a la de deportistas. Los surfistas de la muestra no presentan un gran desarrollo de la fuerza y fuerza-explosiva de los miembros inferiores, pero poseen un buen control postural.

Abstract

To cite this article: Riera-Mestre A, Jimenez D, Muriel A, Lobo JL, Moores L, Yusen RD, Casado I, Nauffal D, Oribe M, Monreal M, for the RIETE investigators. Thrombolytic therapy and outcome of patients with an acute symptomatic pulmonary embolism. J Thromb Haemost 2012; 10: 751-9. Summary. Background: While the primary therapy for most patients with a pulmonary embolism (PE) consists of antico- agulation, the efficacy of thrombolysis relative to standard therapy remains unclear. Methods: In this retrospective cohort study of 15 944 patients with an objectively confirmed symp- tomatic acute PE, identified from the multicenter, international, prospective, Registro Informatizado de la Enfermedad TromboEmbolica (RIETE registry), we aimed to assess the association between thrombolytic therapy and all-cause mor- tality during the first 3 months after the diagnosis of a PE. After creating two subgroups, stratified by systolic blood pressure (SBP) (< 100 mm Hg vs. other), we used propensity score- matching for a comparison of patients who received thrombol- ysis to those who did not in each subgroup. Results: Patients who received thrombolysis were younger, had fewer comorbid diseases and more signs of clinical severity compared with those who did not receive it. In the subgroup with systolic hypoten- sion, analysis of propensity score-matched pairs (n = 94 pairs) showed a non-statistically significant but clinically relevant lower risk of death for thrombolysis compared with no thrombolysis (odds ratio (OR) 0.72; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.36-1.46; P = 0.37). In the normotensive subgroup, analysis of propensity score-matched pairs (n = 217 pairs) showed a statistically significant and clinically meaningful increased risk of death for thrombolysis compared with no thrombolysis (OR 2.32; 95% CI, 1.15-4.68; P = 0.018). When we imputed data for missing values for echocardiography and troponin tests in the group of normotensive patients, we no longer detected the increased risk of death associated with thrombolytic therapy. Conclusions: In normotensive patients with acute symptomatic PE, thrombolytic therapy is associated with a higher risk of death than no thrombolytic therapy. In hemodynamically unstable patients, thrombolytic therapy is possibly associated with a lower risk of death than no thrombolytic therapy. However, study design limitations do not imply a causal relationship between thrombolytics and outcome.

Abstract

Background The natural history of unsuspected pulmonary embolism (PE) in patients with cancer has not been thoroughly studied. Methods We used the RIETE Registry data to compare the clinical characteristics, treatment strategies and outcome in cancer patients with unsuspected PE and in those presenting with symptomatic, acute PE. Results Up to December 2011, 78 cancer patients with unsuspected PE and 1,994 with symptomatic PE had been enrolled. Patients with unsuspected PE more likely had colorectal cancer than those with symptomatic PE (28% vs. 13%), and less likely had prostate (3.8% vs. 10%) or hematologic (1.3% vs. 6.4%) cancer, or prior venous thromboembolism (3.8% vs. 12%). While the patients were receiving anticoagulant therapy, the incidence of PE recurrences (0% vs. 1.9%) or major bleeding (2.6% vs. 4.8%) were similar. After completion of anticoagulation, recurrent PE developed in 2.6% vs. 1.4% of patients, and major bleeding in 0% vs. 0.4%, respectively. Conclusions Our findings suggest that the clinical characteristics and outcome in cancer patients with unsuspected PE are quite similar to those in patients with symptomatic PE.

Abstract

Information on thrombophilia risk factors for patients with upper extremity deep vein thrombosis (UEDVT) is limited. The genetic, acquired, and coagulation risk factors of an acute episode of lower EDVT (LEDVT) or UEDVT, either isolated or associated with pulmonary embolism (PE), were studied.A total of 4503 patients participated in a thrombophilia study. Odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated.Mean age of the participants was 55 ± 19 years. The risk of LEDVT or UEDVT, isolated or associated with PE, was calculated according to thrombophilia factors. We found association between LEDVT and factor V Leiden ([FVL]; OR: 1.8; 95% CI 1.4-2.4) and resistance to activated protein C ([APC-R]; OR: 1.6; 95% CI 1.1-2.4). The LEDVT + PE presented an association with PTG20210A (OR: 1.5; 95% CI 1.1-2.1). No association was found between the thrombophilic defects studied and UEDVT or UEDVT + PE.Both FVL and APC-R carriers had the risk of developing LEDVT. The PTG20210A carriers had the risk of developing LEDVT + PE. No thrombophilic defects studied presented risk factors for UEDVT or UEDVT + PE.

Abstract

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a moderate risk factor for venous thromboembolism (VTE), but neither the clinical presentation nor the outcome of VTE in COPD patients is well known. The clinical presentation of VTE, namely pulmonary embolism (PE) or deep venous thrombosis (DVT), and the outcome at 3 months (death, recurrent VTE or bleeding) were compared between 2,984 COPD patients and 25,936 non-COPD patients included in the RIETE (Registro Informatizado de la Enfermedad TromboEmbólica) registry. This ongoing international, multi-centre registry includes patients with proven symptomatic PE or DVT. PE was the more frequent VTE presentation in COPD patients (n = 1,761, 59%). PE presentation was more significantly associated with COPD patients than non-COPD patients (OR 1.64, 95% CI 1.49-1.80). During the 3-month follow-up, mortality (10.8% versus 7.6%), minor bleeding (4.5% versus 2.3%) or first VTE recurrences as PE (1.5% versus 1.1%) were significantly higher in COPD patients than in non-COPD patients. PE was the most common cause of death. COPD patients presented more frequently with PE than DVT. It may explain the worse prognosis of COPD patients, with a higher risk of death, bleeding or VTE recurrences as PE compared with non-COPD patients. Further therapeutic options are needed.

Abstract

The influence of the site of cancer on outcome in cancer women with venous thromboembolism (VTE) is poorly understood. Reliable information on its influence might facilitate better use of prevention strategies. We assessed the 30-day outcome in all women with active cancer in the RIETE Registry, trying to identify if differences exist according to the tumor site. Up to May 2010, 2474 women with cancer and acute VTE had been enrolled. The most common sites were the breast (26%), colon (13%), uterus (9.3%), and haematologic (8.6%) cancers. During the 30-day study period, 329 (13%) patients died. Of them, 71 (2.9%) died of pulmonary embolism (PE), 22 (0.9%) died of bleeding. Fatal PE was more common in women with breast, colorectal, lung or pancreatic cancer (59% of the fatal PEs). Fatal bleeding was more frequent in women with colorectal, haematologic, ovarian cancer or carcinoma of unknown origin (55% of fatal bleedings).

12. A Framework for Printing and Minting Plans

Author

Rómulo A. Chumacero E., Claudio Pardo M., and David Valdés V.

Abstract

This paper presents alternative models for forecasting the demand for bills and coins of different denominations. When compared to the models often used, the root mean squared forecasting error is substantially reduced. The paper also develops a new framework to formulate the printing and minting programs by using density forecasts along with information on technological constraints and preferences of the policy maker.

Abstract

Efficiency in the use of resources in health systems and hospitals has been a matter of interest for administrators as well as for policy makers. The growing costs due to higher levels of demand from the population require a better use and allocation of such costs.To assess the technical efficiency in 28 hospitals in Chile, considering the period from May to October, 2011.The average number of available beds, the number of staff and the expenses on consumer and service goods were used as production inputs and, on the other hand, the expenditures adjusted by the Diagnosis-Related Groups (IR-DRG) were used as producís. To assess the technical efficiency, the Data Envelopment Analysis technique was used.The levéis of inefficiency fluctuóte from 20 to 23.3%. In other words, with a 20% increase in hospital discharges and maintaining fixed inputs, hospitals could become efficient.The incorporation of methodologies to determine efficiency allows gathering new knowledge for people who manage resources as well as for policy makers by optimizing practices and having better allocation criteria.

Abstract

The knowledge of variables influencing hospital efficiency is of paramount importance to carry out initiatives of management improvement and optimization.To explore on the hospital technical efficiency factors.Data from 255,439 hospital discharges from 28 hospitals from May to October 2011 were analyzed. The efficiency index developed by Santelices et al was calculated. Proxy variables of hospital practices, human resource productivity, strategic performance, financing mechanisms, geographical territory and specialization, were considered. The analysis was carried out estimating econometric models.The most significant variables to explain efficiency are the length of stay adjusted by complexity, the discharges per nurse and midwife and the performance of the Hospital Balancea Score Card.The suggested analysis contributes to identify hospital efficiency causes. The results suggest ways to improve performance of hospitals.

Abstract

Summary. Background: One in every three patients with deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in the lower limbs may have silent pulmonary embolism (PE), but its clinical relevance has not been thoroughly studied. Methods: We used the RIETE Registry data to study patients with proximal DVT and no PE symptoms, but with a systematic search for PE. We compared the outcome of DVT patients with silent PE and those with no PE. Results: Of 2375 patients with DVT, 842 (35%) had silent PE and 1533 had no PE. During the first 15 days of anticoagulation, patients presenting with silent PE had a higher incidence of symptomatic PE events than those with no PE (0.95% vs. 0.13%; P = 0.015), with a similar incidence of major bleeding (0.95% vs. 1.63%; P = 0.09). In patients with silent PE, the incidence of PE events during the first 15 days was equal to the incidence of major bleeding (eight events each), but in those with no PE the incidence of PE events was eight times lower (3 vs. 25 bleeding events). Multivariate analysis confirmed that DVT patients with silent PE had a higher incidence of symptomatic PE events during the first 15 days than those with no PE (odds ratio, 4.80; 95% CI, 1.27–18.1), with no differences in bleeding. Conclusions: DVT patients with silent PE at baseline had an increased incidence of symptomatic PE events during the first 15 days of anticoagulant therapy. This effect disappeared after 3 months of anticoagulation.
