Abstract

Objectives: This work sought to establish the relationship between the degree of dependency with hospitalization time of patients intervened surgically in a regional hospital of Peru.

Methods: The study was analytical, cross- sectional with retrospective data collection, studying 380 patients treated in the surgical service at Regional hospital Docente in the municipality of Cajamarca (Peru). The patients' demographic and clinical information was obtained from the daily care records in the hospital's surgery service. The univariate description was conducted through absolute and relative frequencies and confidence intervals for proportions at 95%; for the association between the degree of dependency and hospitalization time Log Rank (Mantel-Cox) - Chi-square was applied, as well as the Kaplan-Meier survival analysis, with statistical significance of p<0.05.

Results: The study had 53.4% male patients, with mean age of 35.3 years, referrals from operating room (64.7%), surgery specialty (66.6%) and the most- frequent surgical intervention was appendectomy (49.7%). Mean hospitalization time was 10 days; 88.1% of the patients had grade-II dependency. The degree of patient dependency had a significant impact on the days of post- surgery hospitalization with direct relationship between both variables (p=0.038).

Conclusions: Hospitalization time is determined by the degree of dependency of patients subjected to a surgical intervention; thereby, it is fundamental to anticipate all the necessary resources for proper care management.

手术患者依赖程度与住院时间的关系
目的:本研究旨在建立秘鲁一家地区医院手术干预患者的依赖程度与住院时间之间的关系。方法:本研究采用分析性、横断面性和回顾性资料收集的方法,研究了秘鲁卡哈马卡市多森特地区医院外科治疗的380例患者。患者的人口学和临床信息来源于医院外科的日常护理记录。通过绝对频率和相对频率以及95%的置信区间进行单变量描述;依赖程度与住院时间的相关性采用Log Rank (Mantel-Cox) -卡方分析,Kaplan-Meier生存分析,差异均有统计学意义。结果:研究中男性患者占53.4%,平均年龄35.3岁,从手术室转诊(64.7%),外科专科转诊(66.6%),最常见的手术干预为阑尾切除术(49.7%)。平均住院时间10天;88.1%的患者为ii级依赖。患者依赖程度对术后住院天数有显著影响,两变量之间存在直接关系(p=0.038)。结论:住院时间由手术干预患者的依赖程度决定;因此,预测所有必要的资源以进行适当的护理管理是至关重要的。
