A qualidade de vida consiste na percepção do indivíduo de sua posição na vida, no contexto da cultura e do sistema de valores nos quais vive, incluindo suas metas, expectativas, padrões e interesses. Objetivo: Avaliar a qualidade de vida de trabalhadores por meio do Instrumento SF-36, antes e durante a pandemia de COVID-19, buscando identificar quais dimensões destas relações foram influenciadas pela situação. Método: Os sujeitos escolhidos foram os trabalhadores de uma empresa do Vale do Paraíba Paulista. O questionário foi aplicado no período de trabalho por um único avaliador. Primeiramente, foi realizada a seleção de horários e dias possíveis para a aplicação do SF36, que ocorreu no ambulatório da empresa, apenas com funcionários voluntários. Foi estabelecido rapport (motivação, esclarecimento sobre a pesquisa, não obrigatoriedade da participação e sigilo), com posterior tratamento estatístico dos dados. Resultados: A empresa possui 136 funcionários, sendo 26 mulheres e 110 homens. Destes, 92% responderam ao questionário SF-36 em duas ocasiões, sendo a primeira no início do ano de 2020 e a outra durante o período de pandemia COVID-19 (a partir de abril de 2020). Conclusão: A condicionante da pandemia apresentou grande interferência nos processos de interpretação da qualidade de vida dos funcionários avaliados. Propõe-se uma futura pesquisa após a pandemia para avaliar a amplitude dos resultados aqui observados.

Background: The Intermittent Claudication Questionnaire (ICQ) is a short questionnaire for the assessment of health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in patients with intermittent claudication (IC). The objective of this study was to translate the ICQ into German and to investigate the psychometric properties of the German ICQ version in patients with IC. Patients and methods: The original English version was translated using a forward-backward method. The resulting German version was reviewed by the author of the original version and an experienced clinician. Finally, it was tested for clarity with 5 German patients with IC. A sample of 81 patients were administered the German ICQ. The sample consisted of 58.0 % male patients with a median age of 71 years and a median IC duration of 36 months. Test of feasibility included completeness of questionnaires, completion time, and ratings of clarity, length and relevance. Reliability was assessed through a retest in 13 patients at 14 days, and analysis of Cronbachs alpha for internal consistency. Construct validity was investigated using principal component analysis. Concurrent validity was assessed by correlating the ICQ scores with the Short Form 36 Health Survey (SF-36) as well as clinical measures. Results: The ICQ was completely filled in by 73 subjects (90.1 %) with an average completion time of 6.3 minutes. Cronbachs alpha coefficient reached 0.75. Intra-class correlation for test-retest reliability was r = 0.88. Principal component analysis resulted in a 3 factor solution. The first factor explained 51.5 of the total variation and all items had loadings of at least 0.65 on it. The ICQ was significantly associated with the SF-36 and treadmill-walking distances whereas no association was found for resting ABPI. Conclusions: The German version of the ICQ demonstrated good feasibility, satisfactory reliability and good validity. Responsiveness should be investigated in further validation studies.

Abstract. Background: Auricular nerve stimulation has been proven effective in different diseases. We investigated if a conservative therapeutic alternative for claudication in peripheral arterial occlusive disease (PAD) via electroacupuncture of the outer ear can be established. Patients and methods: In this prospective, double-blinded trial an ear acupuncture using an electroacupuncture device was carried out in 40 PAD patients in Fontaine stage IIb. Twenty patients were randomized to the verum group using a fully functional electroacupuncture device, the other 20 patients received a sham device (control group). Per patient, eight cycles (1 cycle = 1 week) of electroacupuncture were performed. The primary endpoint was defined as a significantly more frequent doubling of the absolute walking distance after eight cycles in the verum group compared to controls in a standardized treadmill testing. Secondary endpoints were a significant improvement of the total score of the Walking Impairment Questionnaire (WIQ) as well as improvements in health related quality of life using the Short Form 36 Health Survey (SF-36). Results: There were no differences in baseline characteristics between the two groups. The initial walking distance significantly increased in both groups (verum group [means]: 182 [95 % CI 128–236] meters to 345 [95 % CI 227–463] meters [+ 90 %], p < 0.01; control group [means]: 159 [95 % CI 109–210] meters to 268 [95 % CI 182–366] meters [+ 69 %], p = 0.01). Twelve patients (60 %) in the verum group and five patients (25 %) in controls reached the primary endpoint of doubling walking distance (p = 0.05). The total score of WIQ significantly improved in the verum group (+ 22 %, p = 0.01) but not in controls (+ 8 %, p = 0.56). SF-36 showed significantly improvements in six out of eight categories in the verum group and only in one of eight in controls. Conclusions: Electroacupuncture of the outer ear seems to be an easy-to-use therapeutic option in an age of increasingly invasive and mechanically complex treatments for PAD patients.

Hemikolektomie Rechts

Die Entwicklung der laparoskopischen Chirurgie begann 1901 mit der Coelioskopie zu diagnostischen Zwecken und 1983 mit der ersten Appendektomie. Eine weltweite Verbreitung erlebte sie seit 1987 mit der Cholezystektomie. 1991 wurde erstmals sowohl die Hemikolektomie rechts als auch die Sigmaresektion beschrieben. Die anfängliche Euphorie dämpften die ersten Mitteilungen von Port-site-Metastasen. Die Kontroverse, ob beim Karzinom laparoskopisch operiert werden dürfe oder nicht, löste einen Forschungsboom aus. Im Jahr 2000 stand eindeutig fest, dass Port-site-Metastasen etwa gleich häufig wie «Drain-site-Metastasen» bei der offenen Chirurgie sind (um 0.9%). Die randomisierten Studien zum Vergleich laparoskopisch versus offen belegen keine Unterschiede bezüglich der Langzeitergebnisse beim Kolonkarzinom. In erfahrenen Händen gilt dies auch für das Rektumkarzinom. Die Lernkurve ist dabei von grosser Bedeutung. Sie wird mit 30 bis 70 Operationen angegeben, je nachdem ob nur die Operationsdauer oder zusätzlich andere Kriterien berücksichtigt werden (z.B. Umsteigerate, Komplikationen). Mit zunehmender Übung sinkt auch der intraoperative Materialaufwand, sodass die minimal-invasive Technik gesamthaft gesehen billiger wird als die offene Methode. Bei solchen Kalkulationen muss berücksichtigt werden, dass die rasche Wiedereingliederung eines Menschen in den Alltag volkswirtschaftlich gesehen profitabel ist und dass nach laparoskopischen Eingriffen gewisse Faktoren des Lebensqualitätsscores (SF-36) in der Langzeitbeobachtung signifikant besser sind. 2006 hat sich die laparoskopische kolorektale Chirurgie etabliert. Weil sie das Immunsystem weniger beeinträchtigt, wird spekuliert, dass sie sogar bessere Langzeitergebnisse zeigen wird. Dies müssen aber erst künftige Studien beweisen.

Short Form Health

Zusammenfassung. Der Short-Form Health Survey SF-8 ist ein Instrument zur Messung der gesundheitsbezogenen Lebensqualität, einem wichtigen Outcomekriterium klinischer Studien und in den Gesundheitswissenschaften. Das Instrument ist eine Kurzform des häufig verwendeten SF-36, mit dem acht Dimensionen der subjektiven Gesundheit gemessen sowie zwei Summenskalen Körperlicher und Psychischer Gesundheit berechnet werden können. Der SF-8 wurde im Jahr 2004 im Rahmen einer bundesweit durchgeführten Mehrthemenbefragung eingesetzt. Basierend auf diesen Daten können erstmalig repräsentative Normdaten zum SF-8 (N = 2552) aus einer schriftlichen Befragung für die deutsche Bevölkerung vorgelegt werden. Die Referenzdaten werden alters- sowie geschlechtsdifferenziert berichtet und auf Zusammenhänge mit soziodemografischen Merkmalen analysiert. Seltene fehlende Werte in den Antworten weisen auf eine gute Akzeptanz des Instruments hin. Auch wenn der SF-8 in verschiedenen Subskalen mit Deckeneffekten behaftet ist, kann sein Einsatz aufgrund seiner Ökonomie empfohlen werden.
