Fifty-four patients with blunt renal trauma underwent abdominal ultrasound as their initial diagnostic exploration if their hemodynamic status and associated injuries did not contraindicate unnecessary delays. Renal ultrasound allowed us to diagnose the injuries and to identify which patients required a more aggressive radiological exploration to obtain a diagnosis of certainty. At the same time we were able to certify that this technique is highly accurate in the diagnosis of lesions associated with gross hematuria. The noninvasiveness and low cost of this procedure makes it, in our experience, the technique of choice in the initial workup of blunt renal trauma.
informació n del artí culo Resultados: Al finalizar las 24 semanas del programa se identifica una disminució n significativa de las variables antropomé tricas índice de cintura-cadera (p¼ 0,003), perímetro de cintura (pr0,001) y porcentaje de masa de grasa (pr0,001); de las variables de IU: intensidad (pr0,0001), frecuencia y dificultad y su relació n con la limitació n de las actividades (pr0,0001), así como la relació n existente entre la mejora de IU y la mejora de la CdV (p ¼0,039).Conclusiones: Queda científicamente demostrada la eficacia del programa progresivo de fuerza para disminuir la IU. La mejora de la CdV del hombre mayor con cá ncer de pró stata viene mediada por la mejora de la continencia urinaria.
