摘要
背景:注意到肾移植患者BK病毒感染的重要性,本研究旨在提出一项与设计相关的方案,并在伊朗伊斯法罕省实施BK病毒感染肾移植患者的登记系统。方法:介绍BK病毒感染肾移植患者登记平台的设计过程及实施和准备的各个方面。在PubMed、Scopus、update、ScienceDirect、Web of Science等可靠的科学数据库中检索与肾移植患者BK病毒引起的疾病及治疗相关的诊断、病程监测指标和最重要的标准。一个由肾脏病学、生物统计学和流行病学专家组成的小组作为专家组评估了指定的变量,并评估了定量和定性设计的检查清单的内容有效性,以最终确定它们。结果:检查表最终确定为三个部分:1)人口学变量(年龄、性别、受教育程度等),2)临床变量(肾衰竭的主要原因、病史、家族肾病史、实验室和诊断参数、临床表现等),3)BK病毒感染的微生物学信息。这些信息可用于患者的诊断、治疗和随访。结论:我们的BK病毒感染肾移植患者登记系统是世界上为数不多的登记系统,可以为这些患者的危险因素和各项指标的变化过程提供全面有价值的信息收集,有助于改善治疗过程。
Designing a Registration System for Kidney Transplant Patients with BK Virus Infection in the Transplant Centers of Isfahan Province: Objectives, Design, and Introducing Under Study Indices.
Background: Notice to the importance of BK virus infection in kidney transplant patients, the present study aimed to present a protocol related to design aspects and implement a registration system for kidney transplant patients with BK virus infection in Isfahan Province, Iran.
Method: The design process and different aspects of implementation and preparation of the platform for the registration of kidney transplant patients with BK virus infection were presented in this study. Indices related to the diagnosis, monitoring of the course of the disease, and the most important criteria related to the disease caused by BK virus and treatment of BK virus infection in kidney transplant patients were searched in reliable scientific databases such as PubMed, Scopus, Up-To-Date, ScienceDirect, and Web of Science. A team consisting of experts in nephrology, biostatistics, and epidemiology evaluated the specified variables as an expert panel and evaluated the content validity of the checklists designed quantitatively and qualitatively to finalize them.
Results: The checklist was finalized in three sections: 1) demographic variables (age, gender, education,…), 2) clinical variables (primary cause of kidney failure, disease history, history of kidney disease in the family, laboratory and diagnostic parameters, clinical manifestations…), and 3) microbiologic information of BK virus infection. This information can be used for the diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of the patient.
Conclusions: Our registry for kidney transplant patients with BK virus infection among the few ones in the world can provide a comprehensive valuable information collection about the risk factors and the course of changes in various indices in these patients and may improve the treatment process.
