Insuficiencia cardiaca terminal; último acto

Abstract

Resumen Objetivo Conocer las caracteristicas de los pacientes con insuficiencia cardiaca (IC) en estadio terminal o refractario que ingresan en una planta hospitalaria de Medicina Interna y fallecen durante el ingreso, asi como la atencion prestada y el grado de control sintomatico alcanzado en sus ultimos dias de vida. Metodos Estudio observacional descriptivo transversal en un hospital terciario de Madrid; se revisaron las historias clinicas de los 48 pacientes ingresados con IC terminal en la primera mitad del ano 2009 en el Servicio de Medicina Interna del Hospital Universitario La Princesa. En los 19 fallecidos, se analizo retrospectivamente el grado de control sintomatico y la comunicacion con el equipo medico. Resultados La IC terminal es frecuente en pacientes ingresados en servicios de Medicina Interna (20,2%); son pacientes mayores (media de 89 anos) con elevada comorbilidad y nulo seguimiento en unidades de paliativos. Presentaron mayor mortalidad que los pacientes con IC no terminal, tanto en el primer ingreso (20 IC terminal vs. 13% IC no terminal) como acumulada a los 3 meses (39 vs. 13%, p Conclusiones El estadio final de la IC representa un escenario habitual en los hospitales de agudos. La dificultad para reconocer el pronostico, asi como la falta de guias de manejo especifico, hace que el manejo no sea optimo.
