Resumo: | INTRODUCTION: Our aim was to evaluate the outcomes of planed intravitreal injection (IVI) interruption in eyes with diabetic macular edema (DME) and the overall impact of COVID-19 in IVI. METHODS: Retrospective analysis of clinical data of eyes with DME undergoing treatment with IVI, that missed an IVI by their doctor’s decision (based on an implemented treatment guideline) due to COVID-19 pandemic, between 19 March 2020 and 2 May 2020. Primary outcomes were the best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) and the central foveal thickness (CFT) in the first appointment after the missed IVI and after 6 months. Secondary outcomes were the evolution of BCVA and CFT in eyes that missed IVI by patient’s decision and the comparison of the overall number of IVI performed, missed by doctor’s decision, and missed by patient’s decision during the study period and the same period in 2019. RESULTS: Between 19 March and 2 May 2020, 132 eyes with DME missed an IVI by doctor’s decision. Before the missed IVI, BCVA was 65 [5-85] ETDRS letters and CFT was 338 [192-1277] μm. In the first appointment after the missed IVI, BCVA and CFT were 65 [5-85] ETDRS letters and 320 [204-1154] μm, respectively. After 6 months of the missed IVI, BCVA was 70 [5-85] ETDRS letters and CFT was 291 [185-868] μm. In the same period, 41 eyes missed IVI by patient’s decision. Before the missed IVI, BCVA was 60 [5-85] ETDRS letters and CFT was 336 [178-622] μm. In the first appointment after the missed IVI, BCVA was 60 [5-80] ETDRS letters and CFT was 333 [202-1041] μm. After 6 months of the missed IVI, BCVA was 60 [5-85] ETDRS letters and CFT was 285 [205-647] μm. Between 19 March and 2 May 2019, a total of 693 IVI were performed in medical retina patients in our center. During the same period in 2020, 272 IVI were administered, 391 were missed by doctor’s decision and 80 IVI were missed by patient’s decision. CONCLUSION: With the implementation of treatment guidelines, it was possible to keep an overall good control of CFT, without deterioration of BCVA. |

MÉTODOS: Análise retrospetiva da informação clínica de olhos com EMD a realizar tratamento com IVI, em que uma injeção não foi realizada por decisão médica (baseada numa diretriz de tratamento implementada), entre 19 de março de 2020 e 2 de maio de 2020. O outcome primário foi a melhor acuidade visual corrigida (MAVC) e espessura foveal central (EFC) na primeira consulta após a IVI não realizada e após 6 meses. Os outcomes secundários foram a evolução da MAVC e da EFC em olhos que perderam IVI por decisão do doente e a comparação do número total de IVI realizadas, canceladas por decisão do médico e canceladas por decisão do doente durante o período de estudo e no mesmo período em 2019. RESULTADOS: Entre 19 de Março e 2 de Maio de 2020, 132 olhos com EMD perderam uma IVI por decisão do médico. Antes da IVI cancelada, a MAVC era de 65 [5-85] letras ETDRS e a EFC era de 338 [192-1277] μm. Após a IVI cancelada, a MAVC e a EFC eram 65 [5-85] letras ETDRS e 320 [204-1154] μm, respetivamente. Depois de 6 meses, a MAVC era 70 [5-85] letras ETDRS e a CFT era 291 [185-868] μm. No mesmo período, 41 olhos perderam IVI por decisão do doente. Antes da IVI perdida, a MAVC era 60 [5-85] letras ETDRS e a EFC era 336 [178-622] μm. Na primeira consulta após, a MAVC era 60 [5-80] letras ETDRS e a EFC era 333 [202-1041] μm. Após 6 meses da IVI falhada, a MAVC era 60 [5-85] letras ETDRS e a EFC era 285 [205-647] μm. Entre 19 de Março e 2 de Maio de 2019, um total de 693 IVI foram realizadas em doentes com patologia retiniana no nosso centro. Durante o mesmo período em 2020, 272 IVI foram administradas, 391 foram canceladas por decisão do médico e 80 IVI foram canceladas por decisão do doente. CONCLUSÃO: Com a implementação das diretrizes de tratamento, foi possível manter um bom controle geral da EFC, sem deterioração da MAVC.Ajnet2022-12-30info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttps://doi.org/10.48560/rspo.25934eng1646-69501646-6950Castro, CatarinaCoelho, JoãoCorreia, NunoLume, MiguelMenéres, PedroPessoa, Bernardeteinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2023-01-12T20:30:16Zoai:ojs.revistas.rcaap.pt:article/25934Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T16:29:29.574692Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse |
