Substituição valvar isolada com próteses metálicas St. Jude Medical em posição aórtica ou mitral: seguimento de médio prazo

FUNDAMENTO: Em nosso meio as próteses valvares biológicas predominam, considerando-se as dificuldades relacionadas à anticoagulação, mesmo em pacientes jovens, a despeito da necessidade de repetidas operações devido à degeneração das próteses biológicas. OBJETIVO: Apresentar a evolução em médio prazo de pacientes submetidos à substituição da valva mitral ou aórtica por prótese valvar mecânica St. Jude. MÉTODOS: Foi analisada retrospectivamente a evolução dos pacientes operados entre janeiro de 1995 e dezembro de 2003 e seguidos até dezembro de 2006. RESULTADOS: Cento e sessenta e oito pacientes receberam prótese valvar mitral e 117, aórtica. A idade média de ambos os grupos foi de 45 anos. Entre os mitrais, 75% tinham até 55 anos e 65% eram mulheres. Entre os aórticos, 66% tinham até 55 anos e 69% eram homens. Considerando-se apenas mortes relacionadas às próteses valvares, a sobrevida foi de 85,6% para os mitrais e de 88,7% para os aórticos (p=0,698). Entre os mitrais, 97% estavam livres de reoperação, e entre os aórticos 99% (p=0,335). Quanto aos eventos tromboembólicos, a porcentagem de pacientes livres foi de 82% entre os mitrais e de 98% entre os aórticos (p=0,049), e para os eventos hemorrágicos foi de 71% e 86% respectivamente (0,579). Quanto à ocorrência de endocardite, 98 % entre os mitrais e 99% entre os aórticos estavam livres ao final de 10 anos (p=0,534). CONCLUSÃO: Nossa experiência com próteses metálicas St. Jude em uma população predominantemente jovem confirma o bom desempenho desta prótese, em acordo com outras experiências publicadas.

Free Medical Information Doctor = Publisher

Today, doctors can be publishers – computer technology and the internet make it possible, and book projects are tempting in terms of money. A doctor who publishes his own textbooks can earn many times what he would be paid in royalties by a publishing house. More important than this, however, is the fact that a doctor who writes and publishes wants his texts to be read by as many colleagues, students and patients as possible. The best way to achieve this is through free parallel publication of these texts on the internet
