Epidemiología del paciente pediátrico quemado en el Hospital Baca Ortiz, Quito, Ecuador

Abstract

Resumen Introducción y Objetivo Las quemaduras son un problema mundial de salud pública por su gran impacto físico, psicológico, económico y social. El objetivo de este trabajo es describir las características epidemiológicas de los pacientes pediátricos con quemaduras en nuestro entorno asistencial. Material y método Realizamos un estudio descriptivo retrospectivo tomando como universo al total de pacientes pediátricos con quemaduras atendidos en el Hospital Baca Ortiz de Quito, Ecuador, de enero a diciembre del 2016. Resultados Recogimos un total de 343 pacientes pediátricos con quemaduras de los que 180 requirieron hospitalización (52.48%), con predominio de menores de 5 años (67.6%). El género masculino fue el más afectado (55.7%) y las quemaduras por líquido caliente representaron el 70.6%. Las de mayor estancia hospitalaria fueron las quemaduras eléctricas. Registramos una mortalidad del 1.1% relacionada con quemaduras por fuego, de más del 50% de superficie corporal y con compromiso de vía aérea. Conclusiones Los menores de 5 años son más vulnerables para sufrir quemaduras. La principal etiología fue líquido hirviente. Los casos fatales tuvieron relación con quemaduras por fuego y lesión de vía aérea. Las quemaduras eléctricas son devastadoras, la severidad de sus lesiones ocasiona mayor estancia hospitalaria y un aumento de la necesidad de amputación de la extremidad afectada.
