Monitoring changes in anti-tuberculosis treatment: associated factors determined at the time of diagnosis

2013

OBJECTIVES: To determine predictive factors for changes in standard anti-tuberculosis chemotherapy at the time of diagnosis. METHODS: A prospective study was performed among tuberculosis (TB) patients treated at specialised centres during 2008-2009. Treatment outcome was monitored per standard guidelines. Treatment was considered successful if the patient was cured or completed treatment. Factors associated with treatment modification were analysed at the bivariate and multivariate levels using logistic regression. RESULTS: A total of 427 patients were included in the study. The initial standard treatment regimen was retained for 249 patients (58.3%), extended to 9 months for 36 (8.4%) and …

Estudio comparativo de dos drenajes de pequeño calibre en el neumotórax espontáneo idiopático

1992

Se estudiaron comparativamente entre febrero de 1987 y diciembre de 1989, 79 neumotorax espontaneos idiopaticos, 40 de ellos drenados con tubos de calibre 12 F y los restantes con 10 F. El drenaje con tubos de pequeno calibre fue efectivo con una media de utilizacion de 5,2 ± 3,9 dias, requiriendo en solo un caso tratamiento quirurgico por fuga aerea persistente. No se encontraron diferencias significativas entre ambos grupos en cuanto a tiempo de drenaje, complicaciones y recidivas tras un seguimiento minimo de doce meses. Por ello, recomendamos el uso de drenajes de pequeno calibre en los neumotorax espontaneos idiopaticos, especialmente los de calibre 10 F, menos traumaticos y de similar…
