RESUMO

Introduction: Statistics show nowadays, bystanders provided Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) in 40-46% of all out-of-the-hospital cardiac arrests. Strategies must focus on specialized training for non-medical personnel. Engaging new generations in self-care depends on the development of new approaches to address the issue. The objective of this study was to assess the efficacy of an innovative training in CPR through the perception of the participants. Material and methods: This study considered a quantitative approach with a descriptive and correlational design. This study had a convenience sample of 103 participants from undergraduate programs in different disciplines: Engineering, Health, Law, and Design with participated voluntarily in the innovate training. To understand the efficacy of the innovative training data was collected of the participants through a self-assessment rubric. While participants were taken part in the training, an expert assessor was observing the performance and scored the procedure using a similar rubric. Both rubrics use a 5-point Likert scale to assess the level of agreement with each sentence. Results: Self-assessment results show that students excel on identifying if a patient has a pulse (mean=4.47) and if a patient is breathing (mean=4.52). The results of the expert assessment indicate a higher level of performance in hand positioning (mean=4.75) and compression-ventilation coordination (mean=4.77).Discussion: These results are encouraging as participants gained confidence on basic procedures, the main challenges are still on skills that rely deeply on practice. Therefore, this training might need to be offered periodically, as any certification offered for health professionals. This study is a first attempt to design an innovative short term and effective training that universities can replicate to prepare their students for these life-saving skills.


Introducción:Las estadísticas muestran que hoy en día los transeúntes realizan la reanimación cardiopulmonar (RCP) en el 40-46% de las paradas cardíacas extrahospitalarias. Las estrategias deben centrarse en la formación especializada del personal no médico, por lo que es importante desarrollar; nuevos enfoques para abordar el tema y comprometer a las generaciones más jóvenes en el autocuidado. El objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar la eficacia de un entrenamiento innovador en RCP a través de la percepción de los participantes.Ma-terial y métodos: Se utilizó un diseño cuantitativo para correlacionar ambas medidas de rendimiento. Este estudio consideró un enfoque cuantitativo con un diseño descriptivo y correlacional. Este estudio tuvo una muestra de conveniencia de 103 participantes de programas de pregrado en diferentes disciplinas: Ingeniería, Salud, Derecho y Diseño con participación voluntaria en el entrenamiento innovador. Para entender la eficacia de la formación innovadora se recogieron datos de los participantes a través de una rúbrica de autoevaluación. Mien-tras los participantes participaban en la formación, un evaluador experto observaba la actuación y puntuaba el procedimiento utilizando una rúbrica similar. Ambas rúbricas utilizan una escala Likert de 5 puntos para evaluar el nivel de acuerdo con cada frase.Resultados: Los resultados de la autoevaluación muestran que los estudiantes destacan en la identificación de si un paciente tiene pulso (media=4,47) y si un paciente respira (media=4,52). Los resultados de la evaluación de expertos indican un mayor nivel de rendimiento en la colocación de las manos (media=4,75) y en la coordinación compresión-ventilación (media=4,77). Discusión: Estos resultados son alentadores, ya que los participantes ganaron confianza en los procedimientos básicos; los principales retos siguen siendo las habilidades que dependen en gran medida de la práctica. Por lo tanto, es posible que esta formación deba ofrecerse periódicamente, como cualquier certificación ISSN: 0719-1855 © Dirección de Extensión y Educación Continua, Escuela de Medicina, Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile. http://arsmedica.cl26ARS MEDICA Revista de Ciencias Médicas Volumen 46 número 3 año 2021Segura et al.ofrecida a los profesionales de la salud. Este estudio es un primer intento de diseñar una formación innovadora, eficaz y de corta duración, que las universidades pueden replicar para preparar a sus estudiantes en estas habilidades que salvan vidas.

RESUMO

Metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD), formerly known as nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, is the most prevalent liver disorder worldwide. Historically, its diagnosis required biopsy, even though the procedure has a variable degree of error. Therefore, new non-invasive strategies are needed. Consequently, this article presents a thorough review of biopsy-free scoring systems proposed for the diagnosis of MAFLD. Similarly, it compares the severity of the disease, ranging from hepatic steatosis (HS) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) to fibrosis, by contrasting the corresponding serum markers, clinical associations, and performance metrics of these biopsy-free scoring systems. In this regard, defining MAFLD in conjunction with non-invasive tests can accurately identify patients with fatty liver at risk of fibrosis and its complications. Nonetheless, several biopsy-free scoring systems have been assessed only in certain cohorts; thus, further validation studies in different populations are required, with adjustment for variables, such as body mass index (BMI), clinical settings, concomitant diseases, and ethnic backgrounds. Hence, comprehensive studies on the effects of age, morbid obesity, and prevalence of MAFLD and advanced fibrosis in the target population are required. Nevertheless, the current clinical practice is urged to incorporate biopsy-free scoring systems that demonstrate adequate performance metrics for the accurate detection of patients with MAFLD and underlying conditions or those with contraindications of biopsy.
