Abstract
La disnea es un síntoma incapacitante en pacientes hospitalizados por insuficiencia cardiaca y enfermedades respiratorias. Su prevalencia probablemente se encuentra infraestimada, ya que no se cuantifica de manera habitual en la práctica diaria, a pesar de que existen herramientas de medición específicamente diseñadas. El principal objetivo de nuestro estudio es evaluar la intensidad de la disnea al ingreso y al alta hospitalaria, así como determinar la relación con la calidad de vida de estos pacientes. También hemos hecho una descripción de su tratamiento y la evolución de este síntoma en la insuficiencia cardiaca y respiratoria.Métodos. En este estudio descriptivo trasversal hemos incluido de manera prospectiva todos los pacientes hospitalizados por insuficiencia cardiaca y Enfermedad Pulmonar Obstructiva Crónica (EPOC)/Fibrosis pulmonar a lo largo de 4 meses. Se administraron cuestionarios para cuantificar la disnea (Escala de Valoración Numérica 1-10) y la calidad de vida (EuroQoL 5d) en el momento del alta...
Dyspnoea is a disabling symptom in patients admitted with heart failure(HF) and respiratory diseases (RD). Its prevalence is probably underestimated, as it isnot routinely quantified in daily practice, although there are specifically designedmeasurement tools. The main aim of this study is to evaluate its intensity at admissionand discharge and the relation with quality of life. We also describe its management,intensity, and evolution in HF and RD.Methods. In this descriptive, cross-sectional study, we included prospectively allpatients admitted with decompensated HF and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD)/pulmonary fibrosis during 4 months. Surveys quantifying dyspnoea(Numerical Rating Scale 1-10) and quality of life (EuroQoL 5d) were administered atdischarge...
