Resumen Introduccion La esclerosis multiple es una enfermedad con componente autoinmune, y un numero significativo de pacientes se encuentra bajo tratamiento inmunomodulador e inmunosupresor. Frecuentemente los medicos tratantes se preguntan si la vacunacion podra tener un impacto en el desarrollo de la enfermedad, y si existen indicaciones o contraindicaciones para la vacunacion de acuerdo a las terapias indicadas. Objetivo Elaborar una guia de referencia sobre indicaciones y contraindicaciones de vacunacion para neurologos que participan en el manejo de pacientes con esclerosis multiple con o sin terapias modificadoras de la enfermedad. Desarrollo Se conformo un equipo de elaboracion de las guias entre los miembros del Grupo de Trabajo de Enfermedades Desmielinizantes de la Sociedad Neurologica Argentina (SNA). La metodologia implementada fue de acuerdo a recomendaciones establecidas por la SNA, basadas en evidencia, con clasificacion de la misma y elaboracion de las recomendaciones segun el formato GRADE. Conclusiones Se detallan las vacunas disponibles en Argentina, el impacto potencial que podrian tener en el curso de la enfermedad, las indicaciones de vacunacion previas al inicio de cada tratamiento y las contraindicaciones para cada vacuna de acuerdo a la terapia indicada.

Introduction During the last 20 years, multiple sclerosis (MS) disease has seen major changes with new diagnostic criteria, a better identification of disease phenotypes, individualization of disease prognosis and the appearance of new therapeutic options in relapsing remitting as well as progressive MS. As a result, the management of MS patients has become more complex and challenging. The objective of these consensus recommendations was to review how the disease should be managed in Argentina to improve long-term outcomes in MS patients. Methods A panel of 36 experts in neurology from Argentina, dedicated to the diagnosis and care of MS patients, gathered both virtually and in person during 2018 and 2019 to carry out a consensus recommendation on the management of MS patients in Argentina. To achieve consensus, the methodology of “formal consensus-RAND/UCLA method” was used. Results Recommendations focused on diagnosis, disease prognosis, tailored treatment, treatment failure identification and pharmacovigilance process. Conclusions The recommendations of these consensus guidelines attempt to optimize the health care and management of patients with MS in Argentina.

Resumen Introduccion: El diagnostico erroneo (DE) en esclerosis multiple (EM) es preocupante y persiste al no existir un marcador especifico para esta enfermedad. Objetivos a) Referir resultados de evaluaciones neurologicas de pacientes con diagnostico de EM, antes de su inclusion en estudio BEYOND; b) evaluar si se observaba DE en EM y las causas que llevaron al mismo, y c) considerar las consecuencias que causa el DE en EM. Material y metodos Se analizo retrospectivamente a 67 pacientes enviados por neurologos de otras instituciones hospitalarias al Servicio Neurologia Policlinica Bancaria. Se realizo examen clinico/neurologico y evaluacion de estudios de pacientes recibidos, evaluando si cumplian criterios de inclusion y exclusion (CICE) del BEYOND, siendo principal CI pacientes con EM recaida remision (EMRR) cumpliendo criterios de McDonald 2001. Resultados Veintidos pacientes (32,8%) no eran EM; 45 pacientes (67,2%) cumplian criterios para EM: 18 (26,8%) fueron (EMRR), 24 (35,8%) EM secundaria progresiva t 3 (4,4%) primaria progresiva. Conclusiones El 32,8% no eran pacientes con EM, indicando la existencia de un DE. El DE en EM es un problema con graves consecuencias para los pacientes y su familia, se agrava al establecer un tratamiento y afecta a los sistemas de salud que la financian, generando un impacto economico en ellos, debido a los altos costos que tiene el tratamiento de esta enfermedad.

One of the biggest challenges in multiple sclerosis (MS) is the definition of treatment response/failure in order to optimize treatment decisions in affected patients. The objective of this consensus was to review how disease activity should be assessed and to propose recommendations on the identification of treatment failure in RRMS patients in Argentina. Methods A panel of experts in neurology from Argentina, dedicated to the diagnosis and care of MS patients, gathered both virtually and in person during 2016 and 2017 to carry out a consensus recommendation on the identification of treatment failure in RRMS patients. To achieve consensus, the methodology of “formal consensus-RAND/UCLA method” was used. Results Recommendations were established based on published evidence and the expert opinion. Recommendations focused on disease management, disease activity markers and treatment failure identification were determined. Main consensus were: ≥ 2 relapses during the first year of treatment and/or ≥ 3 new or enlarged T2 or T1 GAD + lesions and/or sustained increase of ≥ 2 points in EDSS or ≥ 100% in T25FW defines treatment failure in RRMS patients. Conclusions The recommendations of this consensus guidelines attempts to optimize the health care and management of patients with MS in Argentina.

Resumen Introduccion La revision 2010 de criterios McDonald (RC2010) para esclerosis multiple (EM) lleva a implicaciones importantes al aplicarse en sindromes clinicamente aislados(SCA), modificandose evidencias paraclinicas de diseminacion en espacio (DE) y tiempo (DT). Objetivos Evaluar: a) el diagnostico de EM aplicando estos criterios en pacientes con SCA; y b) las implicaciones que causa la RC2010 en los SCA al aplicarse en ellos. Material y metodos Se analizaron retrospectivamente 51 SCA tipicos ocurridos desde el ano 2001 seguidos hasta 2010 inclusive; a todos se les realizo imagen de resonancia magnetica (basal) (IRMB) de cerebro, sin y con gadolinio, evaluandose en ellas quienes cumplian DE segun los criterios de Barkhof y Tintore. Retrospectivamente se estratificaron los mismos SCA aplicando la RC2010. Resultados De 51 SCA —edad media 32 anos— hubo 36 mujeres (70,6%), 48 con SCA de tipo monofocal (94%) y 31 (60,8%) con alto riesgo de conversion (ARC). Aplicando retrospectivamente la RC2010 se obtuvo que de 31 SCA con ARC 11 (35,5%) cumplian criterios de DE y DT en IRMB. Conclusiones Aplicando RC2010 aumento la sensibilidad para un diagnostico precoz de EM al haber un 35,5% de pacientes con SCA que ya eran EM convertidos por IRMB desde el primer ataque. La RC2010 lleva a implicaciones (entre otras) consistentes de que existen pacientes con SCA convertidos de entrada. Ante un paciente con SCA tipico y una IRMB cumpliendo criterios de DE y DT se puede establecer el diagnostico de EM con un valor predictivo positivo del 79%. Se postula una clasificacion de los SCA segun IRMB.

To adapt and validate a Spanish-language version (SV) of the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) to facilitate its use in Spanish-speaking contexts.The methods recommended by the International Quality of Life Assessment Project were followed. Two forward translations and 1 back translation of the NIHSS were developed to ensure lingual and cultural equivalence. A final revised SV-NIHSS was administered by 8 physicians to patients with stroke in 3 clinics in Buenos Aires, Argentina, from September 2003 to December 2003.The study included 102 patients (mean +/- SD age, 73.3+/-6.5 years; 56% women) with stroke (86% ischemic). The SV-NIHSS mean baseline score was 9.78+/-7.04. Interrater reliability was Independently evaluated for 98 patients, showing a high agreement: kappa, 0.77 to 0.99 for the 15 items; interrater correlation coefficient, 0.991 (95% confidence Interval, 0.987-0.994). Intrarater reliability was excellent: kappa, 0.86 to 1.00 for the 15 items; mean intrarater correlation coefficient, 0.994 (95% confidence interval, 0.991-0.996). Construct validity was also adequate; the SV-NIHSS had a negative correlation with baseline Glasgow Coma Scale (Spearman coefficient = -0.574, P.001) and with Barthel index at 3 months (Spearman coefficient = -0.658, P.001). Patients with different Rankin scores at 3 months also had significantly different baseline SV-NIHSS scores, from a mean of 4.29+/-2.21 for Rankin score of 0 to a mean of 29.40+/-3.97 for Rankin score of 6 (P.001).This study shows that a Spanish-language version of the NIHSS developed with internationally recommended methods is reliable and valid when applied in a Spanish-speaking setting.
