Estudio de prevalencia del efecto adverso de úlceras por presión en un hospital de agudos

Abstract

Resumen Objetivo Las ulceras por presion (UPP) constituyen uno de los efectos adversos ligados a la hospitalizacion. En consecuencia se plantean los siguientes objetivos: determinar la prevalencia de las UPP en pacientes ingresados en un hospital terciario, describir las caracteristicas de las lesiones, conocer la utilizacion de superficies especiales de manejo de la presion (SEMP) y establecer lineas de actuacion para su disminucion. Metodo Estudio descriptivo, trasversal, de prevalencia en pacientes adultos ingresados entre el 11 y el 15 de mayo del 2009. Variables: demograficas, numero de UPP, unidad de ingreso, nivel de riesgo (escala de Gosnell modificada), estadio, localizacion, causa, origen de la lesion, utilizacion de SEMP. Resultados Se estudiaron 682 pacientes, 70 (10,3%) de los cuales presentaron al menos una lesion. El riesgo de aparicion de UPP en los pacientes valorados como alto riesgo es muy superior al de los pacientes valorados sin o de bajo riesgo (OR: 6,26 IC 95% 3,54–11,08; p La mayor parte de las lesiones fueron estadio i (39,1%) y estadio ii (35,2%), localizadas mayoritariamente en talon y sacro. El 83,8% de las UPP tuvieron origen intrahospitalario y la causa principal fue la presion (99%). Solo se utilizaron el 28,1% de las SEMP disponibles. Conclusiones El porcentaje global es mas elevado con lesiones menos graves. Se debe identificar y aplicar medidas preventivas precozmente en los pacientes de mayor riesgo. En nuestro medio, la utilizacion de las SEMP es escasa en relacion a los pacientes de riesgo.
