Os desfechos clínicos e oncológicos dos pacientes submetidos à ressecção endoscópica do câncer gástrico precoce (CGP), considerando os critérios de indicação, comparados à cirurgia, não foram relatados em revisões sistemáticas. A pesquisa foi desenvolvida para estabelecer os desfechos de curto e longo prazos da ressecção endoscópica comparada à cirurgia no tratamento do CGP, elevando as informações para o nível de evidência 2a, melhor respaldando a prática clínica. A revisão sistemática com metanálises foi procedida utilizando-se as bases Medline, Embase, Cochrane, LILACS, Scopus e CINAHL. Onze coortes retrospectivas foram selecionadas para análise qualitativa e quantitativa. Todos os estudos incluem pacientes com CGP e comparam os desfechos nos dois braços. Os dados envolveram 2654 pacientes que preenchiam os critérios absolutos ou expandidos para ressecção endoscópica. Diferentes modalidades de tratamento endoscópico foram avaliadas, principalmente os procedimentos de ressecção, como endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) e endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD). As informações basearam-se nas características dos participantes, critérios de inclusão e exclusão, tipos de intervenções e desfechos (diferentes taxas de sobrevida, eventos adversos, ressecção completa, recorrência e mortalidade). As análises dos riscos absolutos dos desfechos foram feitas com o software RevMan, computando-se as diferenças de risco (DR) das variáveis dicotômicas. Dados de DR e intervalo de confiança de 95% (IC) foram calculados utilizando-se o teste de Mantel-Haenszel e a inconsistência foi qualificada e reportada em ?2 e método Higgins (I2). A análise de sensibilidade foi feita quando a heterogeneidade era maior que 50%. Todas as análises basearam-se inicialmente no modelo de efeito fixo. Dados de sobrevida de 3 anos estavam disponíveis em seis estudos (n = 1197). Não houve DR após os dois tratamentos (DR = 0,01, IC 95% = -0,02 a 0,05). A sobrevida de 5 anos (n = 2310) não demonstrou diferença significativa entre os grupos analisados (DR = 0,01, IC 95% = -0,01 a 0,03). A avaliação de 551 pacientes não evidenciou desigualdade na sobrevida de 10 anos entre as diferentes abordagens (DR = -0,02, IC 95% = -0,15 a 0,10). Dados de complicação estavam presentes em oito estudos (n = 2439), e diferença significativa foi detectada (DR = -0,08, IC 95% = -0,10 a -0,05), demonstrando melhores resultados com a endoscopia. As taxas de ressecção completa foram analisadas em 536 pacientes. Evidenciou-se diferença significativa entre o tratamento endoscópico e cirúrgico (DR = -0,13, IC 95% = -0,17 a -0,09), validando melhores resultados no último grupo. A recorrência foi avaliada em cinco pesquisas (n = 1331) e não houve diferença entre as duas formas de terapêutica (DR = 0,01, IC 95% = -0,00 a 0,02). As taxas de mortalidade foram obtidas de quatro estudos (n = 1107), e não se evidenciou diferença entre os grupos envolvidos (DR = -0,01, IC 95% = -0,02 a 0,00). Conclui-se que as taxas de sobrevida de 3, 5 e 10 anos, recorrência e mortalidade são semelhantes em ambos os grupos. Considerando-se as taxas de complicação, a abordagem endoscópica confere resultados mais apropriados e, analisando-se as taxas de ressecção completa, ela é inferior à cirurgia / Clinical and oncological outcomes of endoscopic resection of early gastric cancer (EGC), considering the indication criteria, compared to surgery, have not been reported in systematic reviews. To address the short- and long-term outcomes of endoscopic resection compared to surgery in the treatment of EGC, a systematic review was performed, establishing the available data to an unpublished 2a strength of evidence, better handling clinical practice. A systematic review and meta-analysis using Medline, Embase, Cochrane, LILACS, Scopus and CINAHL databases were done. Eleven retrospective cohort studies were selected to quantitative and qualitative synthesis. All studies included patients diagnosed with EGC that compared outcomes considering endoscopic treatment and surgery. The included records involved 2654 patients with EGC that filled the standard or expanded indications for endoscopic resection. Different endoscopic treatment modalities were analyzed, mainly mucosal resection procedures such as endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) and endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), compared to surgery. Information of the selected studies was extracted on characteristics of trial participants, inclusion and exclusion criteria, types of interventions and outcomes (different survival rates, adverse events, complete resection, recurrence and mortality rates). The analysis of the absolute risks of the outcomes was performed using the software RevMan, by computing risk differences (RD) of dichotomous variables. Data on RD and 95% confidence interval (CI) for each outcome were calculated using the Mantel-Haenszel test and inconsistency was qualified and reported in X2 and the Higgins method (I2). Sensitivity analysis was performed when heterogeneity was higher than 50%. All pooled analyses were initially based on fixed-effects model. Three-year survival data were available for six studies (n = 1197). There were no RD in 3-year survival data after endoscopic and surgical treatment of EGC (RD = 0.01, 95% CI = -0.02 to 0.05). Five-year survival data (n = 2310) showed no evidence of a difference between the two groups (RD = 0.01, 95% CI = -0.01 to 0.03). The data analysis, in 551 patients, showed no difference in 10-year survival rates between the approaches (RD = -0.02 and 95% CI = -0.15 to 0.10). Complication data were identified in eight studies (n = 2439). A significant difference was detected (RD = -0.08, 95% CI = -0.10 to -0.05), demonstrating better results with endoscopic approach. Complete resection data was analyzed in 536 patients. It showed significant difference in complete resection rates between endoscopic and surgical treatment of EGC (RD = -0.13, 95% CI = -0.17 to -0.09), exhibiting improved results in the surgical group. Recurrence data were analyzed in five studies (n = 1331) and there was no difference between the approaches (RD = 0.01, 95% CI = -0.00 to 0.02). Mortality data were obtained in four studies (n = 1107), and there was no difference between treatment modalities (RD = -0.01, 95% CI = -0.02 to 0.00). This systematic review concludes that 3-, 5- and 10-year survival, recurrence and mortality rates are similar for both groups. Considering procedure-related complication rates, endoscopic approach achieves significantly better results and, analyzing complete resection data, it is considered worse than surgery

No presente estudo, 30 pacientes, do sexo masculino com idade mediana de 29 anos, portadores de hérnias inguinais / inguino-escrotais, unilaterais, indiretas e primárias, sem encarceramento ou estrangulamento, foram submetidos à hernioplastia inguinal, por meio de inguinotomia, sob raqui-anestesia em regime de internação hospitalar. A técnica de correção utilizada foi a de Bassini modificada, sendo que estas modificações repousam no tipo da incisão, abordagem da fáscia transversalis e no reforço da parede posterior do canal inguinal. Os objetivos foram os de avaliar os resultados do pós-operatório mediato quanto aos eventos: intensidade e duração da dor pós-operatória e o tempo de retorno às atividades normais, estabelecendo assim a duração maior ou menor do período de convalescença. Das hérnias operadas 33,33% e 66,67% foram classificadas no intra-operatório como tipos I e II de Nyhus, respectivamente. A duração da cirurgia variou entre 45 e 85 minutos, com média de 66,46 minutos e mediana de 66,5 minutos. A permanência hospitalar foi menor que 24 horas. O índice de mortalidade foi nulo e o seguimento foi feito no 10º e 30° dias de pós-operatório. A intensidade média da dor pós-operatória atingiu seu pico máximo no 1º dia, alcançando 2,93 na escala analógica decimal, sendo que a partir do 5° dia de pós-operatório se tornou insignificante. O retorno às atividades habituais e sociais se deu em um período médio de 5,34 dias. O tempo de retorno ao trabalho alcançou a média de 11,23 dias e mediana de 5 dias. Observou-se complicação leve em dois pacientes (6,67%), que apresentaram edema de bolsa escrotal de rápida resolução. Não se observou complicações infecciosas apesar do não uso de antimicrobianos. A análise dos dados obtidos permite concluir que o procedimento é exeqüível, com boa aceitação por parte dos pacientes, apresentando resultados comparáveis aos obtidos na literatura / In the present study, 30 patients, of the male sex, with an average age of 29, victims of inguinal hernias/ inguino-scrotum, unilateral, indirect and primaries, without confinement or strangulation, were submitted to inguinal hernioplasty, thru inguinotomy, under rachianesthesia on a regimen as hospital in--patients. The correction technique used was the modified- Bassini, since these modifications lie in the kind of incision, approaching of the fascia transversalis and in the reinforcement of the posterior wall of the inguinal duct. The purposes were of evaluating the mediate post-operative results as to the events: intensity and duration of the post-operative pain in the period of time of return to the normal activities, thus determining the longer or shorter duration of the recovery period. Among the operated hernias 33.33% and 66.67% they were classified in the intra-operative as types I and II of Nyhus, respectively. The duration of the surgery varied between 45 and 85 minutes, with an average of 66.46 minutes and median of 66.5 minutes. The in-patients stay in the hospital was less than 24 hours. The mortality rate was null and the follow up was made on the 10th and 30th days of the post operative. The average intensity of the post-operative pain reached its appex on the 1st day, reaching 2.93 in the decimal analogical scale, and as of the 5th day of the post-operative it became insignificant. The return both to the usual and social activities happened in an average period of time of 5.34 days. The period of time of returning to work reached an average of 11.23 days and a median of 5 days. A slight complication was observed in two patients (6.67%), who had edema in the scrotum pouch of fast solution. No infectious complications were detected in spite of not using any anti-microbians. The analysis of the data obtained allow to conclude that the procedure is feasible, with good approval on the part of the patients, presenting results comparable to the ones obtained in the literature

No tratamento do cálculo coraliforme por nefrolititomia percutânea, há cirurgias com poucas dificuldades e pacientes que evoluem sem complicações, como há casos muito difíceis, com pós-operatório extremamente complicado. O objetivo deste estudo é analisar os fatores de risco pré, intra e pós-operatórios, relacionados com complicações e insucessos da nefrolitotomia percutânea no tratamento do cálculo coraliforme. Foram estudados 57 pacientes portadores de 72 cálculos coraliformes. Houve correlação estatisticamente significante entre complicação e os seguintes fatores: infecção do trato urinário no pré-operatório e número de punções renais. Em relação a insucesso os fatores de risco foram: infecção do trato urinário no pré-operatório e via excretora sem dilatação / During a percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PNL) procedure there are cases with no difficulties and no complications. In the other hand, there are cases very hard to treat with a higher surgical risk and post-operative complications.The goal of this study is to analyze the pre, intra and postoperative risk factors related to surgical complications and nonsuccess rates of PNL as treatment for staghorn stone. Fifty-seven patients with seventy-two staghorn calculi were studied. There have been significant statistical correlation between complications and: postoperative urinary tract infections and the number of renal access required. When considering nonsuccess rate, there was association with the following risk factors: postoperative urinary tract infections and absence of dilatation of collecting system

The aim of this study was to examine the effects of preoperative therapeutic play on the immediate preoperative and postoperative outcomes of Hong Kong Chinese children undergoing surgery, and their parents in a day surgery unit. / An intervention study was conducted in the second phase of the study. A randomized controlled trial, two-group pretest and repeated posttest, between subjects design was employed. Hong Kong Chinese children (7-12 years of age; N = 203) admitted for elective surgery in a day surgery unit during a 13-month period, were invited to participate in the study along with their parents. By using a simple complete randomisation method, 97 children with their parents were assigned to the experimental group receiving therapeutic play intervention, and 106 children with their parents were assigned to the control group receiving routine information preparation. / Background. Surgery causes considerable stress and anxiety that can have a profound effect on both children and their parents. Therefore, they need to be well prepared before surgery to minimize their anxiety, enhance their feeling of control, and promote positive post-operative outcomes. With the increasing number and complexity of paediatric surgery being performed in day surgery units, there is a compelling need for nurses to develop and evaluate appropriate interventions tailored to the needs of children and parents so as to enhance their ability to cope with surgery. / Conclusion. The first phase of this study confirmed the psychometric properties of the Chinese version of the State and Trait Anxiety Scales for Children, and the Children's Emotional Manifestation Scale. The results also support the appropriateness of these instruments as clinical research tools in evaluating the effectiveness of preoperative nursing interventions. / Methods. The study was conducted in two phases. The first phase consisted of developing and testing the psychometric properties of three instruments that were used in the second phase of the study. These instruments included the Chinese version of the State Anxiety Scale for Children, the Chinese version of the Trait Anxiety Scale for Children, and the Children's Emotional Manifestation Scale. / Results. The results showed that both children and parents in the experimental group reported statistically significant lower state anxiety scores than the control group in both pre- and post-operative periods. Children in the experimental group also exhibited statistically significant fewer instances of negative emotional behaviours, displayed lower heart rates and mean arterial blood pressures. Additionally, parents in the experimental group reported significantly higher level of satisfaction with the preoperative nursing preparation given. The results, however, did not find statistically significant differences in children's postoperative pain scores and post-hospital adjustment between the two groups. / Significance of the study. It is anticipated that this study could increase nurses' understanding of the emotional responses of children undergoing surgery and enrich their experience in using child-sensitive research tools in evaluating the effectiveness of preoperative nursing interventions. Most importantly, this research provides empirical evidence of the benefits of incorporating therapeutic play in the preoperative preparation of children and parents thus charting a path towards promoting holistic and quality care.* / The second phase of this study had addressed a gap in the literature by empirically testing the effectiveness of the therapeutic play intervention in preparing children for surgery, and their parents, which had been under-researched. It also provides empirical evidence that therapeutic play, using preoperative tour visit to the operating theatre, doll demonstration and return demonstration on the procedure of anaesthesia, is more effective in improving immediately pre- and post-operative outcomes of children and their parents than information-based preparation alone. / Therapeutic play has been used as a psychological preparation for helping children cope with the stress of hospitalisation. However, the majority of previous studies into the effect of therapeutic play were based only on theories and clinical observations. The lack of empirical evidence makes it difficult to determine precisely the effectiveness of therapeutic play. Therefore, there is vital need for more rigorous empirical scrutiny. / Li Ho Cheung William. / "July 2005." / Advisers: Violeta Lopez; Chung Kwong Yeung. / Includes supplementary digital materials. / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 67-11, Section: B, page: 6309. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--Chinese University of Hong Kong, 2005. / Includes bibliographical references (p. 335-354). / Electronic reproduction.

Entretanto, no Brasil há poucos estudos sobre filas de espera nos serviços de saúde. Este é um estudo de caso que pretende contribuir acrescentando métrica nessa discussão e fundamentando-a em torno da viabilidade econômico-financeira das decisões em saúde e da regulação, de modo mais amplo. Partindo do contexto de um hospital municipal da zona sul da cidade de São Paulo, analisamos dois cenários diferentes, a demanda proveniente da atenção básica para consulta com especialista, que nem sempre termina na indicação de cirurgia, e as filas de espera internas ao hospital para cirurgia ginecológica, de pacientes já avaliadas e com cirurgia indicada, aguardando seu agendamento. Da análise desses dados, traçamos um novo modelo de gerenciamento da fila de espera para cirurgia ginecológica eletiva nesse hospital. Nossa proposta não tem o objetivo de atingir espera zero. Tampouco é fundamentada em estratégia única. Nossa principal conclusão é que a estratégia mais eficiente para o gerenciamento das filas de espera envolve o fortalecimento das ações de integração com a rede de atenção. No Sistema Único de Saúde, o olhar de linha de cuidado, pode viabilizar efetivamente a entrega de maior valor na assistência prestada e pode ser feita através de iniciativas locais. / Waiting lists are a chronic problem in countries that opted for universal health systems. However, there are few studies on waiting lists in health services in Brazil. This case study aims to contribute by adding metrics to this discussion and grounding it around the economic-financial viability of health care decisions and access regulation in a broader way. Starting from the context of a municipal hospital in the south of the city of São Paulo, we analyzed two different scenarios: the demand for primary care for consultation with a specialist, which does not always end with the recommendation of surgery, and inpatient waiting lists, which have patients that were already evaluated and are waiting for the surgery. From this data analysis, we draw a new management model of gynaecologic elective surgery waiting list in this hospital. Our proposal does not aim to achieve zero wait, nor is it based on a single strategy. Our main conclusion is that the most efficient strategy for the waiting lists management involves the strengthening of health care networks’ integration actions. In the Unified Health System it can effectively enable the delivery of greater value in the assistance provided and can be done through local initiatives.

Introduction : En situation anxiogène comme une chirurgie d’un jour, les enfants accordent une attention importante aux comportements qu’adoptent leurs parents. Objectif : L’objectif de cette analyse secondaire était d’explorer la relation entre les comportements des parents et ceux des enfants en salle de réveil à la suite d’une chirurgie d'un jour. Méthodologie : À l’aide d’un devis de recherche descriptif corrélationnel, soixante-et-onze dyades parent-enfant ont été observées à l’aide d’une caméra vidéo en salle de réveil. Tous les comportements manifestés ont été codifiés à l’aide du Child Behavior Coding System-PACU. Des tests de corrélations Pearson /Spearman et Poisson ont été menés à l'aide de SPSS. Résultats : Une forte corrélation significative et positive a été obtenue entre l’humour procédural des parents et la demande d’information, un discours non relié à la procédure, un discours relié à la procédure et un affect positif chez l’enfant. Conclusion : Les parents et les enfants pourraient bénéficier d’une préparation péri-opératoire centrée sur la parentalité bidirectionnelle et d’un accompagnement de l’équipe soignante en salle de réveil.

<p>Uvod: Primarna fokalna hiperhidroza (PFH) je poremećaj nepoznate etiologije koji se karakteri&scaron;e prekomernim znojenjem na predilekcionim mestima. Podjednako se javlja kod osoba mu&scaron;kog i ženskog pola tokom dvadesetih i početkom tridesetih godina života, pri čemu se smatra da je učestalos PFH oko 2,8% u ukupnoj populaciji. Nastaje kao posledica hiperaktivnosti simaptičkog nervnog sistema ka znojnim žlezdama. Karakteristično je za PFH da se ne javlja noću, &scaron;to sugeri&scaron;e da emocionalni stimulus igra bitnu ulogu u nastanku ovog poremećaja. Bilateralna torakoskopska simpatektomija (BTS) je minimalno invazivna hirur&scaron;ka procedura koja se danas primenjuje u trajnom lečenju PFH, sa niskom stopom komplikacija i omogućava lečenje kao jednodnevne hirur&scaron;ke procedure. Ciljevi ovog istraživanja su bili: a) da se ispita ukupna efikasnost BTS na trajno smanjenje PFH predilekcionih delova tela - dlanova, pazu&scaron;nih jama, lica i stopala; b) da se ispita efiksanost BTS kod osoba sa PFH u odnosu na različite nivoe transekcije simpatičkog lanca; c) da se ispita uticaj BTS na plućnu i srčanu funkciju kod operisanih osoba sa PFH; d) da se ispita pojava, trajanje i intenzitet kompenzatornog znojenja nakon BTS kod operisanih osoba sa PFH; e) da se ispita pojava, trajanje, lokalizacija i tretman postoperativnog bola nakon BTS kod osoba sa PFH; f) da se utvrde postoperativne komplikacije BTS kod osoba sa PFH; i g) da se ispita uticaj BTS na kvalitet života kod operisanih osoba sa PFH. Radna hipoteza istraživanja je bila da hirur&scaron;ka procedura - minimlano invazivna BTS ima značajan efekat na prekomerno znojenje na predilekcionim mestima kod osoba sa PFH, da je praćena sa minimalnim morbiditetom, bez kliničkog uticaja na plućnu i srčanu funkciju i da značajno pobolj&scaron;ava kvalitet života operisanih osoba. Materijal i metod: Urađena je prospektivna klinička studija koja je uključila 435 osoba sa PFH, koji su operisani bilateralnom torakoskopskom simpatektomijom, na Klinici za grudnu hirurgiju, Instituta za plućne bolesti Vojvodine u Sremskoj Kamenici između 2010 i 2014 godine. Kriterijumi za uključivanje u studiju bili su: a) da su osobe sa utvrđenom i procenjenom PFH pristale da učestvuju u istraživanju ispunjavajući preoperativno i postoperativno upitnike o efektima BTS i kvalitetu života nakon operacije; b) da nisu imali prethodne grudno hirur&scaron;ke intervencije, frakture rebara, masivne pneumonije ili empijem pleure; c) da nisu imali te&scaron;ki poremećaj plućne ili srčane funkcije; d) da ne boluju od sekundarne hiperhidroze. Primarna fokalna hiperhidroza je bila ustanovljena i procenjena anamnestičkim podacima, kliničkom slikom i pregledom koji je bio fokusiran na kvalitativno ispitivanje. Bilateralna torakoskopska simpatektomija izvođena je u op&scaron;toj anesteziji, a transekcija simpatičkog lanca je rađena pomoću ultrazvučno aktiviranog skalpela. Osobe sa izvedenom BTS zbog PFH bile su klasifikovane u tri grupe, u zavisnosti od nivoa transekcije simpatičkog lanca: a) transekcija na nivou drugog do četvrtog torakalnog gangliona (T2-T4); b) transekcija na nivou trećeg do četvrtog torakalnog gangliona (T3-T4); i c) transekcija na nivou drugog do trećeg torakalnog gangliona (T2-T3). Za procenu kompenzatornog znojenja i kvaliteta života kori&scaron;ćene je: Hyperhidrosis Disease Severity Scale (HDSS) za intenzitet kompenzatornog znojenja i kvaliteta života nakon BTS. Rezultati: Od 435 osoba sa PFH kod kojih je urađena BTS, bilo je 142 (32,64%) osobe mu&scaron;kog pola i 293 (67,36%) osoba ženskog pola, prosečne starosti od 29,68&plusmn;7,6 godina. Pozitivan nasledni faktor navelo je 167 osoba (38,62%). Najče&scaron;ća lokalizacija prekomernog znojenja kod osoba u ovom istraživanju je bila kombinacija dlanova, pazu&scaron;nih jama i tabana, koju je imalo 167 osoba (38,39%). Pre operacije, preko 60% ispitivanih osoba je navelo da im je kvalitet života lo&scaron; ili izuzetno lo&scaron;. Kod svih operisanih osoba u ovom istraživanju, operacija je izvedena uspe&scaron;no obostrano. Nije bilo smrtnih ishoda. Od intraoperativnih komplikacija zabeležena je jedna konverzija (0,23%) u minitorakotomiju zbog krvavljenja iz interkostalne vene. Neposredni postoperativni uspeh BTS kod operisanih osoba zbog PFH, a na osnovu prve kontrole posle nedelju dana bio je zabeležen kod svih (99,54%), osim kod dve osobe (0,46%) koje su imale postoperativne komplikacije: pareza n. ulnarisa i Hornerov sindrom kod jedne osobe i Horner sindrom kod druge osobe. Postoperativni morbiditet nakon BTS bio je zabeležen kod 32 osobe (7,35%). Izrazito pobolj&scaron;anje, odnosno značajno smanjenje znojenja kod osoba sa PFH zabeleženo je kod 428 operisanih (98,39%). Osobe sa transekcijom simpatičkog lanca na nivou gangliona T3-T4 imali su najbolji rezultat sa pobolj&scaron;anjem kvaliteta života u 85,03% operisanih. Kompenzatorno znojenje se nakon BTS javilo kod 316 (72,64%) operisanih osoba, a samo 2,53% je navelo da je postoperativno kompenzatorno znojenje izuzetno jakog intenziteta. Postoperativni bol bio je prisutan kod 79,77% operisanih osoba, sa prosečnim trajanjem do dve nedelje. Analgetike je postoperativno koristilo 24,21% anketiranih osoba. Od 287 operisanih osoba u ovom istraživanju, koji su pre operacije naveli da su imali i prekomerno znojenje tabana, nakon 6 meseci 185 osoba (64,46%) je navelo da se prekomerno znojenje tabana smanjilo. Iako postoji statistička značajnost u promeni vitalnog kapaciteta u smislu njegovog povećanja &scaron;est meseci nakon BTS (sa 4,49&plusmn;1,15 L na 4,54&plusmn;1,11 L), ta promena nije bila klinički relevantna. Promene u krvnom pritisku i srčanom pulsu, iako zabeležene, takođe nisu imale klinički značaj. Kvalitet života, pre BTS ocenjen kao lo&scaron; (i izuzetno lo&scaron;) bio je prisutan kod 265 osoba (60, 92%), a 6 meseci posle operacije ocenjen je kao odličan i dobar kod 428 osoba (98,39%). Zaključak: BTS kao minimalno invazivna hirur&scaron;ka procedura kod osoba sa PFH ima minimalni morbiditet, a visoku uspe&scaron;nost u smanjenju prekomernog znojenja na predilekcionim mestima, sa pobolj&scaron;anjem kvaliteta života kod 98,39% operisanih, sa minimalnim promenama plućne i srčane funkcije koje nisu klinički relevantne.</p> / <p>Primary focal hyperhidrosis (PFH) is a disorder of an unknown etiology, characterized by excessive sweating of predilective parts of the body. It affects men and women equally, with a peak incidence in the later second and early third decades of life, with incidence of up to 2,8% of the world population. It is caused by hyperactivity of the sympathetic nervous system to the sweat glands. It has been shown that PFH does not occur during the sleeping times, which suggests that emotional stimuli play an important role in this disorder. Bilateral thoracoscopic sympathectomy (BTS) is minimal invasive surgical procedure, which has evolved into an effective and permanent treatment for severe PFH, with low rate of morbidity and it can be performed as the one day surgical procedure. The aims of this investigation were: a) to examine the overall efficiency of BTS on permanent reduction of PFH of predilective parts of the body-palms, armpits, faces and soles; b) to examine the efficiency of BTS with different levels of transection among the persons with the PFH; c) to examine the influence of BTS on cardio-pulmonary function tests in persons with PFH after the operation; d) to examine the incidence, duration and intensity of compensatory sweating after BTS among persons with PFH; e) to examine the incidence, duration, localization and treatment of postoperative pain after BTS among persons with PFH; f) to determine postoperative complications of BTS among persons with PFH; g) to examine the influence of BTS on quality of life among persons with PFH. The working hypothesis of this investigation is that surgical procedure &ndash; minimal invasive BTS has the permanent effect on excessive sweating of predilective parts of the body among persons with PFH, followed by minimal morbidity, without clinical influence on cardio-pulmonary function and significantly improves the quality of life among persons with PFH. This was a prospective clinical study which included 435 patients with PFH, who have been operated with BTS, at the Clinic for Thoracic surgery, the Institute for pulmonary diseases of Vojvodina, Sremska Kamenica, between 2010 and 2014. The including criteria for the investigation were: a) persons with confirmed and estimated PFH accepted to participate in this investigation, fulfilling pre and postoperatively questionnaire about BTS effects and quality of life after the operation; b) absence of previous thoracic surgical procedures, rib fractures, massive pneumonias or pleural empyema; c) satisfactory cardio-respiratory function; d) absence of secondary hyperhidrosis. Primary focal hyperhidrosis was confirmed and estimated by anamnesis, clinical examination focused on qualitatively examination. Bilateral thoracoscopic sympathectomy was performed with general anesthesia, using harmonic scalpel for transection of sympathetic chain. Persons with PFH who underwent the BTS were classified into three groups, depending the level of transaction of sympathetic chain: a) transection at the level from the second to the forth thoracic sympathetic ganglion (T2-T4); b) transection at the level from the third to the forth thoracic sympathetic ganglion (T3-T4); c) transection at the level from the second to the third thoracic sympathetic ganglion (T2-T3). For the assessment of postoperative pain, compensatory sweating and quality of life next scales have been used: standardized numeric pain rating scale and Hyperhidrosis Disease Severity Scale (HDSS) for intensity of compensatory sweating and quality of life. Among 435 persons with PFH who underwent the BTS in this investigation, 142 (32,64%) were male and 293 (67,36%) female persons, with mean age of 29,68&plusmn;7,6. There was no mortality or serious intraoperative complications that required operative conversio from minimal invasive surgical procedure to thoracotomy. Among 435 persons with PFH who underwent the BTS in this investigation, 142 (32,64%) were male and 293 (67,36%) female persons, with mean age of 29,68&plusmn;7,6. Positive genetic factor has been found in 167 persons (38,62%). The most common localisation of excessive sweating in this investigation was the combination of palms, armpits and soles in 167 persons (38,39%). Before the operation, over 60% of persons estimated their quallity of life as bad or very bad. The operation was successfully performed in all patients bilaterally. There was no mortality in this investigation. There was one intraoperative complication, bleeding from intercostal vein, requiring conversion to minithoracotomy. Immediatelly postoperative success after BTS seven days after the operation was achieved in all persons accepted in two persons (0,46%) due to the postoperative complications: nervous ulnaris paresis and Horner syndrome in one person and Horener syndome in the other person. Postoperative morbidity after the BTS was recoreded in 32 persons (7,35%). Marked improvement, as significant reduction of sweating in persons with PFH was achieved in 428 operated persons (98,39%). Transection of sympathetic chain on level T3-T4 achieved improvement of quality of life in 85,03% operated persons with PFH. Compensatory sweating after the BTS has occurred in 316 (72,64%) operated persons, but only 2,53% operated persons declared compensatory sweating as severe. Postoperative pain was presented in 79,77% operated persons, with average duration of two weeks. Analgetics used only 24,21% of operated persons. There were 287 operated persons in this investigation, who claimed to have plantar hyperhidrosis before the operation and six months after the operation 185 persons (64,46%) claimed to have a reduction of plantar sweating. Although there was a clinical significance in changes of vital capacity after the BTS (from 4,49&plusmn;1,15 L to 4,54&plusmn;1,11 L), ther was no clinical significance. Changes in blood pressure and heart rate, although recoreded, had no clinical significance. Quality of life, before the BTS was recorded as bad or very bad in 265 persons (60,92%), and six months after the operation as excellent or good in 428 persons (98,39%) persons. Conclusion: In patients with PFH, BTS as minimal invasive surgical procedure, has a minimal morbidity and high success in treatment of excessive sweating, with improvemnet of quality of life in 98,39% operated person, with changes in cardio-pulmonary functions that are not clinical relevant.</p>
