Abstract Objective COVID-19 is associated with an elevated risk of thromboembolism and excess mortality. Difficulties with best anticoagulation practices and their implementation motivated the current analysis of COVID-19 patients who developed Venous Thromboembolism (VTE). Method This is a post-hoc analysis of a COVID-19 cohort, described in an economic study already published. The authors analyzed a subset of patients with confirmed VTE. We described the characteristics of the cohort, such as demographics, clinical status, and laboratory results. We tested differences amid two subgroups of patients, those with VTE or not, with the competitive risk Fine and Gray model. Results Out of 3186 adult patients with COVID-19, 245 (7.7%) were diagnosed with VTE, 174 (5.4%) of them during admission to the hospital. Four (2.3% of these 174) did not receive prophylactic anticoagulation and 19 (11%) discontinued anticoagulation for at least 3 days, resulting in 170 analyzed. During the first week of hospitalization, the laboratory most altered results were C-reactive protein and D-dimer. Patients with VTE were more critical, had a higher mortality rate, worse SOFA score, and, on average, 50% longer hospital stay. Conclusion Proven VTE incidence in this severe COVID-19 cohort was 7.7%, despite 87% of them complying completely with VTE prophylaxis. The clinician must be aware of the diagnosis of VTE in COVID-19, even in patients receiving proper prophylaxis.

Abstract OBJECTIVE: Hepatitis B is an important public health concern. Currently, the COVID-19 pandemic is a major challenge for health systems, and the access to pharmacologic and non-pharmacologic treatment of chronic diseases, such as hepatitis B, may have been affected due to the contingency measures. This study aimed to evaluate the access to antiviral therapy during the ongoing pandemic. METHODS: This was a descriptive analysis of the access to treatment for chronic hepatitis B at a tertiary-level university hospital in São Paulo, integrated with the Brazilian health system. The study was conducted from April to December 2020. RESULTS: Access to antiviral therapy for 225 patients was assessed. The majority of the population was male (59%). The main type of service was the Programa Medicamento em Casa (Home Medication Delivery Program), which was availed by 144 (64%) patients. Women had poorer access to antiviral therapy (56%, p<0.05), and patients registered in the HMDP (68%, p<0.05) had better access. The age group of >48 years represented 70% of the group without access to antiviral therapy. Twenty-two pharmaceutical appointments were conducted through phone calls with patients without access to antiviral therapy. CONCLUSION: This study contributes to the rationalization of efforts in a public health crisis through the identification of groups with the highest risk of poor access to antiviral therapy and the demonstration of the benefits of a medication delivery system.

Resumo Introdução: A hepatite B é um importante problema de saúde pública no mundo e uma das formas de contágio seria através da transmissão vertical. O diagnóstico precoce possibilita a adoção de medidas de profilaxia, o que resulta na prevenção em mais de 90% dos casos. Objetivo: Descrever as prevalências de transmissão vertical e comparar duas gerações (mãe/paciente e paciente/filho). Método: Trata-se de um estudo transversal, que incluiu 101 pacientes. As entrevistas foram realizadas por meio da aplicação do instrumento de coleta de dados e informações do prontuário físico antes da consulta médica. Resultados: A média ± DP de idade foi de 50,9 ± 13,1 anos, houve predomínio do gênero masculino, com 56,4% dos pacientes, e predominou a cor branca, com 43,6%. A transmissão vertical entre mãe do paciente/paciente ocorreu em 17,8% e entre paciente/filho, em 7,9%. Em todos os oito casos de transmissão vertical, o diagnóstico foi posterior ao nascimento dos filhos infectados por HBV; em 3/8 (37,5%), houve mais de um caso de infecção por esse mecanismo por paciente, totalizando 13 filhos com a doença. Conclusão: Houve uma redução na transmissão vertical, mostrando que as medidas preventivas foram efetivas.

Summary Introduction: Hepatitis B is an important public health problem in the world and one of the forms of contagion would be through vertical transmission. Precose diagnosis allows the adoption of prophylaxis measures, which results in prevention in more than 90% of cases. Objective: To describe the prevalences of vertical transmission and compare two generations (mother/patient and patient/child). Method: This was a cross-sectional study, which included 101 patients. The interviews were performed through the application of the instrument of data collection and information of the physical file before the medical consultation. Results: The mean ± SD of age was 50.9 ± 13.1 years, the male gender predominated, with 56.4% of the patients, and the predominance was white, with 43.6%. Vertical transmission between mother and patient occurred in 17.8% and between patient and child, in 7.9%. In all of the eight cases of vertical transmission, the diagnosis was after the birth of children infected with HBV, and in 3/8 (37.5%), there was more than one case of infection by this mechanism per patient, totaling 13 children with the disease. Conclusion: There was a reduction in vertical transmission, showing that preventive measures were effective.

Resumo Desde 2010, a Divisão de Gastroenterologia e Hepatologia Clínica do Instituto Central do HC-FMUSP tem desenvolvido atividades assistenciais eletivas especializadas em Hepatologia no Ambulatório de Especialidades Nível Secundário de São Paulo no Estado de São Paulo NGA-63 Várzea do Carmo. O objetivo do estudo é analisar o perfil farmacoterapêutico dos pacientes. Trata-se de um estudo transversal e retrospectivo, no qual pacientes foram atendidos pelo setor de Hepatologia e os dados encontrados foram submetidos à estatística descritiva. Os resultados demonstraram que 492 pacientes foram atendidos nesse ambulatório durante o período do estudo com a média de idade de 58,9 anos, frequência de 61,2% do sexo feminino e 74,8% residindo na capital paulista. Essa população foi atendida por outras diferentes especialidades médicas (cardiologia e endócrino, entre outras), e os principais diagnósticos hepáticos foram hepatite crônica B e C e esteatose hepática. Também foram identificadas comorbidades como diabetes, hipertensão arterial e dislipidemia. Boa parte da população tende a retirar a sua medicação nas Unidades Básicas de Saúde. Foi verificado que 30% dos pacientes fazem uso de mais de cinco medicamentos, sendo os mais prescritos o omeprazol (208; 42,3%), metformina (132; 26,8%) e losartana (80; 16,3%). Por se tratar de uma população adulta/idosa, com diversas comorbidades e com polimedicação, é importante estar atento ao uso racional do medicamento. O atendimento da equipe multiprofissional é importante para aplicar tomadas de condutas corretas para a segurança no uso de medicamentos e diminuir a oneração em gastos em saúde, melhorando a qualidade de vida do paciente.

Summary Since 2010, the Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology Division of the Central Institute of Hospital das Clínicas of the University of São Paulo Medical School (HC-FMUSP, in the Portuguese acronym) has been developing specialized electives assistance activities in the Outpatient Specialty Clinic, Secondary Level, in São Paulo NGA-63 Várzea do Carmo. The objective of this study was to analyze the pharmacotherapeutic profile of patients. This is a cross-sectional and retrospective study in which patients were seen at the Hepatology sector and the results were submitted to descriptive statistics. During the study period, 492 patients were treated at the clinic, with a mean age of 58.9 years and frequency of 61.2% female and 74.8% living in São Paulo. This population was served by various other medical specialties (cardiology and endocrine among others) and the major liver diagnoses were: chronic hepatitis B and C and fatty liver. Comorbidities were also identified, such as diabetes, hypertension and dyslipidemia. Most patients took their medication in the Basic Health Units. We found that 30% of patients use of more than five medications and the most prescribed were omeprazole 208 (42.3%), metformin 132 (26.8%) and losartan 80 (16.3%). Because it is an adult/elderly population, with several comorbidities and polymedication, it is important to be aware of the rational use of medication. The multidisciplinary team is important in applying correct conducts for the safe use of medicines, to reduce the burden on health spending and improving the quality of life of patients.

ContextoUma das limitações para o teste respiratório com13C-uréia ser incorporado na prática clínica no Brasil para diagnóstico de infecção pelo Helicobacter pylori(H. pylori) é a aquisição do substrato em apresentação de cápsula.ObjetivosO objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar a utilidade de13C-uréia em cápsula, manipulada pela Divisão de Farmácia de um Hospital terciário para a prática clínica.MétodosCinquenta pacientes foram submetidos ao teste respiratório convencional com 75mg de 13C-uréia e ao teste com cápsula de 50 mg de 13C-uréia. Amostras de ar expirado foram coletadas no basal e após 10, 20 e 30 minutos da ingestão de 13C-uréia para definição do melhor tempo de coleta. A urease e a histologia foram usadas como padrão ouro em 83 pacientes que se submeteram ao teste respiratório com único ponto de coleta.ResultadosNum total de 50 pacientes, 17 foram positivos com teste respiratório convencional com 75 mg de 13C-uréia aos 10, 20 e 30 minutos. Quando esses pacientes repetiram o teste respiratório com13C-uréia em cápsulas de 50 mg, 17 foram positivos aos 20 minutos (Índice Kappa 1,0; P<0,05) e 15 aos 10 e 30 minutos (Índice Kappa 0,90; P<0,05). A sensibilidade relativa da 13C-uréia em cápsulas de 50 mg foi 100% aos 20 minutos e 88,24% aos 10 e 30 minutos. A especificidade relativa foi de 100% em todos os intervalos de tempo. Entre 83 pacientes que se submeteram ao teste respiratório com cápsula e endoscopia, aqueles que eram H. pyloripositivos tiveram teste respiratório positivo e aquelesH. pylori negativo tiveram teste respiratório negativo, mostrando sensibilidade e especificidade de 100%.ConclusõesO teste respiratório com cápsula de 50 mg de 13C-uréia aos 20 minutos foi considerado altamente sensível e específico para a prática clínica.
