Indicadores de pronóstico para la supervivencia de potros neonatos hospitalizados en la Sabana de Bogotá: análisis de gases sanguíneos, electrolitos y metabolitos

Resumen

Los potros neonatos son susceptibles a enfermedades potencialmente mortales. Por tanto, es importante identificar marcadores que permitan predecir la supervivencia de estos pacientes, e iniciar el tratamiento adecuado para cada caso. Este estudio fue realizado en el Centro de Perinatología Equina Foal Care ubicado en Cajicá, Cundinamarca. Se revisaron y analizaron las historias clínicas de 106 potros que ingresaron a hospitalización entre septiembre de 2019 y diciembre de 2020 para evaluar el valor predictivo de los parámetros de gases sanguíneos y electrolitos frente a la supervivencia de potros neonatos hospitalizados. Se utilizaron diferentes pruebas estadísticas como la prueba de Kolmogorov Smirnov, U de Mann-Whitney, regresión logística binaria, pruebas de chi cuadrado, odds ratio y análisis de la curva de características del operador del receptor (ROC). Se observó que el desorden ácido-básico más común al ingreso a hospitalización fue la acidosis metabólica (37/106), y el desequilibrio electrolítico más frecuente fue la hipocalcemia (89/106). La variable más significativamente relacionada con la supervivencia fue el pH > 7,35 (p = ,007; OR = 0,288; IC = 95 %, 0,117-0,706). Los factores de riesgo asociados con la no supervivencia de los potros fueron pH < 7,35, lactato > 4,5 y glucosa < 119,5 mg/dl.
