Resumen
Antecedentes: la enfermedad por coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) ha sido una de las mayores crisis sanitaria de nuestros tiempos, por lo anterior la estratificación pronóstica al momento de la hospitalización es fundamental para identificar de manera temprana a los pacientes con alto riesgo morbimortalidad. La disnatremia como predictor independiente de mortalidad en pacientes con COVID-19 ha tomado relevancia recientemente.
Objetivo: encontrar si existe asociación de disnatremias con mortalidad a 28 días, y como secundarios su asociación con estanca hospitalaria, requerimiento de VMI y LRA durante su estancia hospitalaria.
Material y métodos: estudio de tipo cohorte retrospectivo, descriptivo y analítico. Se incluyeron de manera consecutiva todos los pacientes mayores de 16 años de cualquier género, ingresados en un hospital de tercer nivel de marzo de 2020 a marzo de 2021, los cuales presentaron diagnóstico de COVID-19 con PCR positiva.
Resultados: el estudio incluyó un total de 722 pacientes. La prevalencia de disnatremia fue la siguiente: 18 pacientes presentaron hipernatremia (2.49%) y 153 hiponatremia (21.19%). La presencia de hipernatremia una vez corregido el sodio para la glucosa se asoció con mayor mortalidad (p < 0.05, RM 3.446; IC 95%, 1.776-6.688), un aumento de la probabilidad de presentar LRA (p < 0.05, RM 2.985; IC 95%, 1.718-5.184) y mayor requerimiento de VMI (p < 0.05, RM 1.945; IC 95%, 1.701-5.098).
Conclusiones: la hipernatremia se asoció a una mayor mortalidad, mayor riesgo de presentar LRA y requerimiento de VMI durante la hospitalización.
Abstract
Background: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has provoked one of the greatest health crises of our time, which is why risk stratification at the time of hospitalization is essential to identify in good time patients with high morbidity and mortality risk. Dysnatremia as an independent predictor of mortality in patients with COVID-19 has recently become relevant.
Objective: To find out if there is an association of dysnatremia with 28-day mortality, and as secondary objectives, its association with hospital stay, invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) requirement and presence of acute kidney injury (AKI) during hospital stay.
Material and methods: Retrospective, descriptive and analytical cohort study. All consecutive patients of 16 years or older of any gender, admitted to a third level hospital from March 1, 2020 to March 2021, who have a diagnosis of COVID-19 with positive PCR were included.
Results: The study included a total of 722 patients. The prevalence of dysnatremia was as follows: 18 patients presented hypernatremia (2.49%) and 153 hyponatremia (21.19%). The presence of hypernatremia once sodium was corrected for glucose was associated with higher mortality (p < 0.05, OR 3.446; 95% CI 1.776-6.688), an increased probability of presenting AKI (p <0.05, OR 2.985; 95% CI 1.718-5.184) and a greater requirement for IMV (p < 0.05, OR 1.945; 95% CI 1.701-5.098).
Conclusions: Hypernatremia was associated with higher mortality, higher risk of presenting AKI and the requirement for IMV during hospitalization.
