Mortalidad hospitalaria asociada a medicamentos en un Servicio de Medicina Interna

Abstract

Fundamento. Analizar la mortalidad asociada a fármacos, los medicamentos más implicados y los factores de riesgo asociados en pacientes ingresados en Medicina Interna. Material y métodos. Estudio retrospectivo, observacional. Se revisaron las historias clínicas de los adultos fallecidos consecutivamente en el servicio de Medicina Interna de un hospital universitario durante veintidós meses. La variable principal fue la mortalidad hospitalaria sospechosa de estar relacionada con medicamentos administrados durante el ingreso. Resultados. De las 455 muertes analizadas, el 22,2% estuvieron relacionadas con los medicamentos recibidos; en 55 casos (12,1%) los medicamentos fueron considerados sospechosos de ser la causa de la muerte y en 46 casos (10,1%) de contribuir a ello. Los diagnósticos más frecuentes en los casos de muerte asociada a medicamentos fueron arritmia cardiaca (23,7%), hemorragia grave (19,8%) y neumonía aspirativa (12,8%). Los medicamentos implicados con mayor prevalencia en las muertes relacionadas con el tratamiento farmacológico fueron los antitrombóticos (23,7 %), la digoxina (21,7 %), los antipsicóticos (17,8%) y las benzodiacepinas (14,8%). El único factor de riesgo independiente de mortalidad asociada a tratamiento fue el número de medicamentos administrados (OR=1,25; IC95%: 1,14-1,37). No se encontró asociación significativa con la edad, sexo, número de patologías o duración de la estancia hospitalaria. Conclusiones. Un alto porcentaje de las muertes de pacientes ingresados en Medicina Interna se consideran relacionadas con los medicamentos recibidos. Los antitrombóticos, digoxina y psicofármacos fueron los agentes más frecuentemente implicados. Dicha mortalidad se asocia de manera independiente y significativa con el número de medicamentos administrados.
