Resumo: | Introduction: Ischemic Stroke (iCVA) consists of a cerebral arterial obstruction, which results in an acute neurological lesion with important worldwide morbidity and mortality. Representing one of the main causes of hospitalization, stroke causes long-term and high-cost hospitalizations and numerous future consequences for patients, with considerable financial expense in the health system. Such mentioned aspects can be avoided when we act on several factors that influence the length of stay (LOS) of these patients. Thus, the present study aims to identify elements that influence LOS in patients who had stroke and were assisted at a neurology and neurosurgery reference institution. Methodology: This retrospective research includes all patients with cerebral infarction between 2018-2019 and the exclusion criteria were patients with neurological pathology other than stroke, under 18 years of age or with incomplete medical records. Several variables were analyzed statistically, including demographic data, risk factors, level of consciousness, affected arterial vessel and need for neurosurgery. Results: 101 patients were eligible for the study. Average age was 73 years old, with 88,1% over 60 years old. Systemic Arterial Hypertension (SAH) was present in most patients (77,23%). The majority (85,15%) presented with a Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) greater than 8 with statistical significance in lower mortality (p=0,015) and lower LOS (p=0,001). The middle cerebral artery (MCA) was the main arterial territory affected (58,42%) and few cases required neurosurgery (4,95%). The death rate was small (11,88%). The mean LOS was 11,31 days and most patients were hospitalized for less than five days (51,48%). Conclusion: Initial presentation with a GCS scale above 8 is consistent with lower mortality and lower LOS. Understanding factors that can induce higher LOS is of paramount importance for time management, aiming at reducing the treatment expenses and optimizing skills. |

Representando una de las principales causas de hospitalización, el accidente cerebrovascular isquémico provoca hospitalizaciones a largo plazo, de alto costo y numerosas consecuencias futuras para el paciente, con un gasto económico considerable en el sistema de salud. Dichos aspectos pueden evitarse cuando actuamos sobre factores que influyen en la duración de estancia hospitalaria (DEH) de estos pacientes. Así, el presente estudio tiene como objetivo identificar los elementos que influyen en la DEH en pacientes con accidente cerebrovascular isquémico y que fueron atendidos en una institución de referencia en neurología y neurocirugía. Metodología: La investigación retrospectiva incluye a todos los pacientes con infarto cerebral entre los años 2018-2019 y los criterios de exclusión fueron pacientes con patología neurológica distinta al accidente cerebrovascular isquémico, menores de 18 años o con historia clínica incompleta. Se analizaron estadísticamente varias variables, incluyendo datos demográficos, factores de riesgo, nivel de conciencia, vaso arterial afectado y necesidad de neurocirugía. Resultados: 101 pacientes fueron elegibles para el estudio. La edad media fue de 73 años, con 88,1% mayor de 60 años. La hipertensión arterial sistémica (HAS) estuvo presente en la mayoría de los pacientes (77,23%). La mayoría (85,15%) presentó una escala de coma de Glasgow (ECG) superior a 8 y presentó significancia estadística en menor mortalidad (p=0,015) y menor DEH (p=0,001). La arteria cerebral media (ACM) fue el principal territorio arterial afectado (58,42%) y pocos casos requirieron neurocirugía (4,95%). La tasa de mortalidad fue pequeña (11,88%). La DEH media fue de 11,31 días y la mayoría de los pacientes fueron hospitalizados hasta 5 días (51,48%). Conclusión: La presentación inicial con ECG superior a 8 es consistente con menor mortalidad y DEH. Comprender los factores que pueden inducir una mayor DEH es de suma importancia para la gestión de este tiempo, con el objetivo de reducir los gastos que el tratamiento demanda y optimizar las habilidades.Introdução: O Acidente Vascular Cerebral Isquêmico (AVCi) consiste em uma obstrução arterial cerebral, que acarreta em lesão neurológica aguda de importante morbimortalidade mundial. Representando uma das principais causas de internação, o AVCi gera internações prolongadas, de alto custo e inúmeras sequelas futuras para o paciente, com considerável gasto financeiro no sistema de saúde do país. Tais aspectos mencionados podem ser evitados quando atuamos em diversos fatores que influenciam no Tempo de Permanência Hospitalar (TPH) desses pacientes. Dessa forma, o presente estudo tem como objetivo identificar quais são os elementos que influenciam no TPH nos pacientes que tiveram AVCi e que foram assistidos em uma Instituição de referência em neurologia e neurocirurgia. Metodologia: A pesquisa retroativa inclui todos os pacientes com infarto cerebral entre os anos de 2018 e 2019 e os critérios de exclusão foram os pacientes com outra patologia neurológica além do AVCi, menores de 18 anos ou com prontuários incompletos. Diversas variáveis foram analisadas estatisticamente, incluindo dados demográficos, fatores de risco, nível de consciência, vaso arterial acometido e necessidade de neurocirurgia. Resultados: Foram elegíveis para o estudo 101 pacientes. A idade média foi de 73 anos, com 88,1% acima de 60 anos. A Hipertensão Arterial Sistêmica (HAS) esteve presente na maioria dos pacientes (77,23%). A maioria (85,15%) se apresentou com Escala de Coma de Glasgow (ECG) maior que 8 e apresentou significância estatística em menor mortalidade (p=0,015) e menor TPH (p=0,001). A Artéria Cerebral Média (ACM) foi o principal território arterial acometido (58,42%) e poucos casos necessitaram de neurocirurgia (4,95%). A taxa de óbito foi pequena (11,88%). A média do TPH foi de 11,31 dias e a maioria dos pacientes ficou por até 5 dias internados (51,48%). Conclusão: Apresentação inicial com escala ECG acima de 8 condiz com menor mortalidade e menor TPH. Compreender fatores que podem induzir maior TPH é de suma importância para o gerenciamento desse tempo, objetivando a redução das despesas que o tratamento demanda e otimizando competências.Research, Society and Development2021-07-10info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/1710710.33448/rsd-v10i8.17107Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 No. 8; e20710817107Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 Núm. 8; e20710817107Research, Society and Development; v. 10 n. 8; e207108171072525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/17107/15399Copyright (c) 2021 Mirela Sehn; Felipe Kochhann Ledur ; Isadora Sehn; Betina Sehn; Rafael Rauber; Leandro Pelegrini de Almeidahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSehn, MirelaLedur , Felipe Kochhann Sehn, IsadoraSehn, BetinaRauber, RafaelAlmeida, Leandro Pelegrini de 2021-08-21T18:46:59Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/17107Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:37:30.632548Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false |
