Publication Formación del cardiólogo en Chile y contribuciones desde la Sociedad Chilena de Cardiología y Cirugía Cardiovascular(2024) Rossel, Víctor; Gajardo, Jorge; Miranda, Rodrigo; Nauhm, Yalile; Larrea, Ricardo; Greig, Douglas; Fernández, Flor; Bittner, Alex; Aguayo, Rubén; Varleta, Paola; Sanhueza, Gonzalo; Bugueño, Claudio; Quiñiñir, Luis; Llancaqueo, Marcelo; Pedemonte, Oneglio; Julio, Patricio; Sepúlveda, Luis; Oyonarte, Miguel; Sociedad Chilena de Cardiología y Cirugía CardiovascularLa Sociedad Chilena de Cardiología y Cirugía Cardiovascular (SOCHICAR) es una entidad científica cuya misión es mejorar la salud cardiovascular del país y entre sus objetivos principales está el debatir los problemas de la especialidad y realizar diferentes actividades que tiendan a fomentar su progreso. Para cumplir con ellos se realizan diversas actividades de educación dirigidas a profesionales de la salud, entre los cuales se encuentran los médicos en programas de formación de cardiología. La formación de especialistas en Chile es responsabilidad de las Universidades, quienes diseñan la malla curricular y planifican las distintas actividades del programa de acuerdo con el perfil de egreso. La SOCHICAR busca integrar a estas nuevas generaciones de cardiólogos, implementando una serie de actividades dirigidas a ellos que contribuyan en su período de formación. Nos pareció relevante entregar nuestra posición como Sociedad Científica en importantes aspectos relacionados con este proceso: el perfil de egreso del cardiólogo clínico, las competencias necesarias para su desempeño en el país, la identificación de áreas deficitarias en su etapa formativa y las contribuciones desde la Sociedad a este proceso dependiente de las universidades. Se convocó a cardiólogos de SOCHICAR, en distintas etapas de desarrollo profesional, diferentes áreas geográficas y ámbitos de desempeño y funciones, en total, 15 cardiólogos (as), distribuidos en tres grupos de trabajo. Esta declaración de posición de la SOCHICAR puede ser de utilidad y una fuente de información importante a considerar por autoridades, entidades acreditadoras, centros formadores y la Sociedad Chilena de Cardiología. The Chilean Society of Cardiology and Cardiovascular Surgery (SOCHICAR) is a scientific society whose mission is to improve the nation's cardiovascular health. Its primary goals include discussing issues affecting the specialty and engaging in various activities that support its advancement. To achieve these goals, numerous educational initiatives are undertaken for health professionals, including physicians in cardiology training programs. Training specialists in Chile is the responsibility of the universities, which design the curriculum and plan the program according to the graduate profile. SOCHICAR seeks to integrate these new generations of cardiologists, setting up tasks that contribute to their training. It seemed relevant to us to state our position as a Scientific Society in importants aspects related to this process: the graduate profile of the clinical cardiologist, the necessary competencies for their performance nationally, the identification of deficient areas in their training period, and the Society's contributions to this university-dependent process. A total of 15 cardiologists from SOCHICAR, at different stages of professional development, various geographic areas, and areas of performance and functions, were invited to participate in three working groups. This SOCHICAR position statement may be useful and an important source of information to be considered by authorities, accrediting entities, training centers, and the Chilean Society of Cardiology.Publication Perinatal outcomes of pregestational hypertension according to blood pressure range at 11-14 week scan: Impact of the 2017 ACC/AHA guidelines(2022) Sepúlveda, Álvaro; Conrads, Tomás; Guiñez, Rodolfo; Guiñez, Javiera; Llancaqueo, Marcelo; Parra, MauroObjective The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact on perinatal outcomes related to placental insufficiency with the application of the new 2017 ACC/AHA guidelines to a group of chronic hypertensive pregnancies during their first-trimester assessment. Study design This retrospective cohort study included pregnancies with preconceptional hypertension and known perinatal outcomes. In the first trimester, a combined screening for preterm preeclampsia (p-PE) was performed, including blood pressure (BP), mean uterine artery Doppler, and maternal characteristics. Patients were divided, according to the 2017 ACC/AHA consensus, into the following groups: elevated or less, Stage 1, and Stage 2. For adverse perinatal outcome assessment, univariate and multivariate regression analyses were performed, considering the “elevated or less” group as a reference. Odds ratios (OR) were compared with linear trend analysis. The main outcomes measured were preterm PE and FGR < 3rd percentile. Results Of the 130 included patients, 59 (45.4%) were classified as elevated or less, 47 (36.2%) as Stage 1, and 24 (18.4%) as Stage 2. p-PE showed a significant increase according to BP range [7% (OR = 1.0), 19.6% (OR = 3.2), and 21.7% (OR = 3.7)]; trend p = 0.02, for elevated or less, Stage 1, and Stage 2, respectively. There was a non-significant increased trend of FGR < 3rd percentile according to the BP stage. The best multivariate predictive model for p-PE included a previous PE background (OR = 15) and mean arterial pressure in mmHg (OR = 1.1). Conclusion The use of the 2017 ACC/AHA consensus in pregnancies with chronic hypertension identifies an intermediate risk group for placental-mediated diseases.
