Toracoscopia temprana en el manejo del hemotorax traumático

Abstract

Introducción: el hemotórax coagulado es de las complicaciones más frecuentes en pacientes con hemotórax que reciben manejo convencional con toracostomía. Los pacientes con drenajes entre 500 y 1000cc de sangre al paso del tubo de tórax, tienen una incidencia mayor cercana al 20%1, aumentando tiempos de hospitalización, reingresos y costos. Con la disponibilidad de videotoracoscopia se ha aumentado su uso en el manejo del trauma de tórax. Objetivo: el estudio pretende comparar el resultado de dos tipos de manejo toracostomía y toracoscopia en el tratamiento de este tipo de pacientes. Métodos: por medio de un estudio de cohortes retrospectivo se recopilaron historias clínicas de 134 pacientes con hemotórax traumático del servicio de cirugía del Hospital de Kennedy, entre enero de 2008 y diciembre de 2009 que recibieron uno de dos manejos descritos. El análisis estadístico de los datos permitió determinar el desenlace de cada una de las variables en relación con la intervención. Resultados: la toracoscopia temprana conlleva una mayor posibilidad de reexpansión pulmonar (p 0,057), menor Estancia Hospitalaria (p 0,001), y menor riesgo de hemotórax coagulado (p0.088) al compararla con la toracostomía. Conclusiones: pacientes con hemotórax traumático con drenaje de sangre entre 500 y 1000cc, requieren intervenciones adicionales. Se sugiere la toracoscopia temprana en estos pacientes, para disminuir hemotórax coagulado, estancia hospitalaria y favorecer reexpansión pulmonar. Se necesitan estudios adicionales en otras instituciones, que permitan evaluar si los resultados son reproducibles, y aportar mayor evidencia sobre el tema con el fin de protocolizar este manejo.

Background: the clotted hemothorax is the most common complication in patients receiving conventional management with thoracostomy. Patients with drains between 500 and 1000ml of blood true the chest tube, have a higher incidence of around 20%, increasing length of stay, readmissions and costs. With the increment disponibility of thoracoscopy, its use in the management of chest trauma have increase. Objective: the study aims to compare the result of two types of management: thoracoscopy and thoracostomy in the treatment of such patients. Methods: using a retrospective cohort study were collected medical records of 134 patients with traumatic hemothorax from the surgery department of Kennedy Hospital, between January 2008 and December 2009 who received one of two interventions described. The statistical analysis of the data allowed to determine the outcome of each of the variables in relation to the intervention. Results: early Thoracoscopy involves a greater chance of lung reexpansion (p 0.057), shorter hospital stay (p 0.001), and lower risk of coagulated hemothorax (p0.088) when compared to the thoracostomy. Conclusions: patients with traumatic hemothorax draining blood from 500 to 1000cc, require additional interventions. Early thoracoscopy is suggested in these patients, to decrease coagulated hemothorax, hospital stay and promote lung reexpansion. Further studies are needed in other institutions, to evaluate whether the results are reproducible, and provide more evidence on the issue in order to formalize this practice.
