A699 moderados e outros 9(18%) se sentem incapazes de realizar suas atividades habituais. No domínio dor/mal-estar, 33(66%) não refere dores ou mal estar. Sobre ansiedade e depressão, 36(72%) não se sentem ansiosos ou deprimidos. O estado de saúde autopercebido, medido pela escala analógica visual, mostra uma pontuação mínima de 30 e máxima de 100, numa média de 78,5. A grande maioria dos pacientes 24(48%) considera sua saúde excelente, 17(34%) afirmam estar com saúde regular. Apenas 9(18%) da amostra considera sua saúde ruim.Quanto às condições socioeconômicas da amostra, 40(80%) pacientes estão em idade produtiva (20-59 anos), média de 41 anos, sendo a predominância do sexo masculino 34(68%). A maioria dos pacientes entrevistados, 27(54%), recebe apenas o salário mínimo como renda individual, obtida por aposentadoria ou auxílio doença. ConClusões: Pelo resultado obtido nessa pesquisa infere-se que os pacientes transplantados renais apresentam uma boa qualidade de vida nos primeiros meses após transplante. Sugere-se pesquisa prospectiva com o intuito de observar sobrevivência e as mudanças na qualidade de vida desses pacientes.
A7152012 el consumo de ATB aumentó un 32% (de 7.4 a 9.8 DHD). El patrón de consumo total estuvo dado principalmente por las penicilinas de amplio espectro (53%, 61.1 DHD), siendo la amoxicilina el ATB más usado (44%, 50,5 DHD). ConClusiones: Las medidas regulatorias permitieron disminuir el consumo y los costos/DDD de ATB en Chile. Sin embargo, el aumento progresivo observado indica la necesidad de revisar la calidad en la utilización de los ATB y el cumplimiento de la regulación vigente.
feedback on a 4 point scale for applicability, comprehensibility and appropriateness of the response options of each item. They were also encouraged to leave free-text feedback. Results: A total of 218 subjects provided feedback, 61.47% female. Mean age was 55.78 years, with patients from 18-80 years, 40.37% between 55-65 years. The most represented conditions were Parkinson's ( 27), Fibromyalgia (23), Multiple Sclerosis (20) and Rheumatoid Arthritis (19). The mean number of quantitative assessments per item was 55.74, while the mean number of comments was 11.64. Considering a cut-off of 2 points in the 0-3 scale, 18 items had low applicability, just one item had low comprehensibility and all items had appropriate response options. ConClusions: An impressive amount of feedback was obtained in just a week using the Open Research Exchange platform. The lowest scores were in applicability. However, as the items are destined to an adaptive test, some of them are very extreme (destined to severe cases). Therefore applicability was considered a secondary concern. With this caveat, quantitative feedback was very positive, and added to the great amount and detail of qualitative feedback suggest some changes that we think will greatly improve the instrument.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
