Women treated at the Subred Sur (SRS) of Bogotá, diagnosed with GS in 2017-2018, were included. The 2018 cohort was exposed to Positive Deviance (PD) to identify useful practices for CS prevention, implement them, and overcome existing barriers. Adherence to the Colombian Guideline for GS management and CS incidence were described.Results: A total of 284 GS cases were confirmed. Timely treatment initiation increased from 81.8 % to 90.2 %, penicillin sensitivity testing decreased from 38 % to 12.9 %, and complete treatment improved from 43.8 % to 82.6 %. In 2018, 97.5 % received at least one dose of penicillin. The incidence rate of CS decreased from 41.9 % to 29.6 %. Of the patients, 45% were diagnosed with GS in the third trimester, among whom the CS incidence rate was 59 %.Conclusions: This study describes the effects of applying PD as an innovative approach to improve adherence to timely and appropriate GS treatment and prevent CS. Prospective studies with a control group are needed to more robustly evaluate the benefits of this methodology in process and outcome indicators, as well as its impact on reducing mother to child transmission of syphilis.","PeriodicalId":101422,"journal":{"name":"Revista colombiana de obstetricia y ginecologia","volume":"75 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-11-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11812095/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143367082","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Content validity was evaluated using the Content Validity Coefficient (CVC). Correlation analysis, exploratory factor analysis, and confirmatory factor analysis were performed using the Kaiser method, Cattell’s scree plot, the chi-square/degrees of freedom ratio (χ²/df), the Comparative Fit Index (CFI), and the Standardized Root Mean Square Residual (SRMR). Internal consistency was assessed using Cronbach’s alpha. The sample consisted of 60 pregnant women from the Colombian Caribbean region.Results: The mean age was 24 ± 5.14 years, and the mean gestational age was 11.2 ± 3.76 weeks. The content validity coefficient ranged from 0.83 to 0.99. Exploratory factor analysis identified two factors with eigenvalues >1, explaining 78.9% of the total cumulative variance, confirmed by Cattell’s scree plot. Confirmatory factor analysis suggested the use of only 10 items from the HELP instrument, with χ²/df, CFI, and SRMR values of 2.9, 0.90, and 0.04, respectively. However, based on expert judgment, two excluded items (items 9 and 12) were retained due to their clinical relevance. Cronbach’s alpha coefficient was 0.95.Conclusions: The HELP Score instrument is a valid tool for assessing the severity of hyperemesis gravidarum, facilitating medical decision-making regarding necessary interventions. Further evaluation of criterion validity by comparing the HELP Score with the modified PUQE instrument, sensitivity to change, and additional reliability testing are needed to confirm its utility.","PeriodicalId":101422,"journal":{"name":"Revista colombiana de obstetricia y ginecologia","volume":"75 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-11-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11812094/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143367188","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A diagnosis of craniopharyngioma was made, and expectant management was chosen. The patient underwent an uncomplicated cesarean delivery. The literature review included case reports and series on pregnant women diagnosed with craniopharyngioma. Literature was searched on PubMed, EBSCO, and Scopus, along with references from the selected studies. A narrative summary of the findings is provided.Results: Ten case reports were included. All patients presented with visual disturbances, and eight cases had diabetes insipidus. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was used in nine cases, effectively identifying the tumor. Seven patients underwent craniotomy (four during pregnancy, two postpartum, and one post-abortion), while three had transsphenoidal surgery (two during pregnancy and one postpartum). Three cases experienced tumor recurrence, and two had incomplete resection. During the postpartum period, 9 cases had resolution of visual symptoms. In four cases, follow-up ranged from two to six years without evidence of recurrence.Conclusions: In pregnant women with bitemporal hemianopsia, a possible suprasellar tumor should be suspected. MRI of the brain and sella turcica is the diagnostic modality of choice. Further studies are needed to document this condition in pregnancy and its obstetric management in greater detail.","PeriodicalId":101422,"journal":{"name":"Revista colombiana de obstetricia y ginecologia","volume":"75 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-11-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11812093/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143367144","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

She developed distal necrosis of the second finger on her right hand, leading to the discontinuation of gemcitabine and necessitating amputation of the affected finger. A search was conducted in Embase, Medline, and Lilacs for case reports and case series on gemcitabine induced distal necrosis. Data on dosage, diagnosis, and treatment were extracted.Results: Fifteen case reports including 19 cases of distal necrosis were identified. The cumulative doses of gemcitabine ranged from 1,700 to 28,700 mg/m². Diagnosis was primarily clinical, supplemented by angiography and Doppler ultrasound; treatment included discontinuation of gemcitabine, initiation of vasodilators, anticoagulants, and symptomatic management.Conclusions: It is essential to recognize vascular toxicity as a potential adverse effect of gemcitabine and to conduct appropriate risk stratification in patients with advanced cancer and multiple prior treatment lines. Increased monitoring for this adverse effect is warranted with the use of this medication.","PeriodicalId":101422,"journal":{"name":"Revista colombiana de obstetricia y ginecologia","volume":"75 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-11-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11812097/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143367186","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, it is necessary to describe the experiences of pregnant women with hypertensive disorders admitted to the intensive care unit.Material and methods: A qualitative research study with a phenomenological design, involving a sample of ten participants with a history of hypertensive disorders during pregnancy, admitted to critical care. Using snowball sampling and data saturation, information was gathered through semi-structured interviews following informed consent. Data were analyzed with open coding a posteriori using Colaizzi's method and complemented by MAXQDA 2022 software.Results: Six categories emerged: 1) consequences of hypertensive disorders in pregnant women in intensive care units; 2) positive aspects during perinatal care; 3) emotions and suffering due to the loss of the newborn; 4) impact of critical conditions on the mother-newborn relationship; 5) lack of resources for timely therapeutic interventions in perinatal care, and 6) lack of assertive communication by healthcare personnel.Conclusions: Maternal morbidity and mortality caused by hypertensive disorders require high complexity care in specialized institutions to reduce life-threatening risks, leading to disrupted early bonding and separation of the mother-child dyad, as well as negative feelings in the mothers. This situation results in a painful experience for the family. Therefore, healthcare professionals must develop strategies to ensure the preservation of the emotional bond, which can be compromised in critical care areas.","PeriodicalId":101422,"journal":{"name":"Revista colombiana de obstetricia y ginecologia","volume":"75 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11649338/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143367181","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
