Muere una mujer por gripe A en C?diz
17.12.09 - 00:27 - ELENA MARTOS | C?DIZ.
La v?ctima lleg? a la UCI con neumon?a y aquejada de un c?ncer del que estaba siendo tratada en el centro
Se trata de la cuarta persona que fallece en la provincia por esta causa


La gripe A se cobra su cuarta v?ctima en la provincia y la primera en la capital justo cuando comienza a bajar la tasa de incidencia. Se trata de una mujer de unos 50 a?os que ingres? en el Hospital Puerta del Mar por un c?ncer hematol?gico, seg?n informaron varias fuentes del centro. Por lo tanto pertenec?a a uno de los grupos de riesgo y presentaba patolog?as previas, tal como confirmaron ayer fuentes del SAS en C?diz.

El fallecimiento se produjo el pasado martes despu?s ser trasladada a la UCI con una grave neumon?a. ?ste es el segundo caso en la provincia en s?lo dos semanas, despu?s de que una joven asturiana de 28 a?os perdiera la vida en el centro hospitalario de Jerez, en el que ingres? con s?ntomas de gripe sin patolog?as previas. La situaci?n de la paciente gaditana era cr?tica cuando lleg? a Cuidados Intensivos. A pesar de que estaba siendo tratada en la planta de Hematolog?a, el empeoramiento de su situaci?n forz? el traslado e inmediatamente tuvo que ser intubada y sometida a respiraci?n asistida.

Un c?mulo de circunstancias
Los especialistas que la atendieron ya ten?an la confirmaci?n del contagio y recib?a la medicaci?n con antivirales, pero su sistema imunol?gico estaba demasiado deteriorado para hacer frente al virus pand?mico. Adem?s, llevaba tiempo en tratamiento de quimioterapia, lo que debilit? m?s su organismo.
La estancia en la UCI dur? apenas unos pocos d?as, seg?n precisaron las fuentes, que no ofrecieron datos sobre su localidad de origen pero s? confirmaron que es gaditana. ?En su estado era f?cil que cualquier germen le invadiera el organismo y m?s a?n en plena campa?a de gripe?, explicaron a este medio.

A pesar del triste suceso, la incidencia de la gripe es bastante baja en la provincia. Las buenas temperaturas mantenidas durante todo el mes de noviembre han contenido el contagio, que alcanz? su pico m?ximo a principios de este mes. Es justo ahora cuando comienzan a remitir los casos. En este tiempo s?lo cuatro enfermos confirmados han tenido que pasar por la UCI del Puerta del Mar. El primero de ellos fue un ex militar de la Base de Rota aquejado de problemas cardiacos que fue dado de alta en mayo. Justo antes del verano tambi?n ingres? otro paciente que sali? adelante sin problemas, confirm? el personal sanitario. El caso m?s complicado ha sido el de la gaditana fallecida, con la que se encontraba otra paciente que ha vuelto a la planta una vez fuera de peligro.

A woman dies of influenza A in Cadiz
17.12.09 - 00:27 -- ELENA MARTOS | C?DIZ

The victim came to the ICU with pneumonia and suffering from cancer which was being treated at the center
This is the fourth person who dies in the province for this cause


Influenza A fourth victim is charged in the province and the first in the capital just when it begins to lower the incidence rate. This is a woman of 50 who entered the Puerta del Mar Hospital for a blood cancer, according to several sources from the center. Therefore belonged to one of the risk groups and had previous pathologies, such as SAS source confirmed yesterday in Cadiz.

The death occurred last Tuesday after being transferred to the ICU with severe pneumonia. This is the second case in the province in two weeks, after a 28-year old Spaniard lost his life in hospital in Jerez, which was admitted with flu-like symptoms without previous symptoms. The patient's situation was critical when he arrived from Cadiz to intensive care. While being treated at the plant of Hematology, the worsening situation forced the move and immediately had to be intubated and placed on ventilators.

A combination of circumstances
The specialists who attended already had received confirmation of infection and she was treated with antiviral medication, but her immune system was too damaged to respond to the pandemic virus. Furthermore, time in treatment was chemotherapy, which further weakened his body.

The ICU stay lasted only a few days, according to the sources said, offered no data on their place of origin but confirmed he is from Cadiz. "As it was easy for any germs invade his body and more so in the middle of flu season," explained to this medium.

Despite the sad event, the incidence of influenza is quite low in the province. Good holding temperatures throughout the month of November have contained the spread, which reached its peak earlier this month. It's just now they begin to refer cases. At this time, only four confirmed patients have been through the ICU of Puerta del Mar. The first was a former military base in Rota suffering from heart problems that was released in May. Just before the summer other patient was admitted also went ahead without problems, confirmed the staff. The most complicated case was that of the Cadiz died, which was another patient who has returned to the plant once out of danger.

Re: A woman dies of influenza A in Cadiz

El virus tiene hospitalizadas en Jerez a diez personas, algunas de ellas en la UCI
17.12.09 - 00:24 - V. MONTERO | JEREZ.

Una decena de personas permanecen ingresadas hoy en el Hospital de Jerez a consecuencia de la gripe A, algunos de ellos en la Unidad de Cuidadados Intensivos (UCI) ya que sus patolog?as previas -como obesidad o problemas respiratorios- pueden verse agravadas por el contagio del virus N1H1.

El ?ndice de letalidad de esta enfermedad en la provincia de C?diz es del 0,6%, seg?n explicaron fuentes del Servicio Andaluz de Salud. Tal y como hab?an previsto los especialistas del Distrito Sanitario, la mayor incidencia de los procesos gripales (en su mayor?a, gripe A ya que la estacional apenas ha hecho su aparici?n) se produjo en la semana 46, es decir, entre finales de noviembre y principios de diciembre. Durante esos d?as las estad?sticas de la red centinela detectaban 425 afectados por cada 100.000 gaditanos mientras que la semana pasada las cifras hab?an ca?do pr?cticamente a la mitad, es decir a 237 casos.

Aunque el descenso es notable, la tasa de incidencia en la provincia sigue por encima de la media andaluza situada en 168 casos durante la misma semana. Afortunadamente, menos del 2% de los afectados por el virus en Andaluc?a requiere ingreso hospitalario ya que los procesos gripales se est?n presentando de forma leve.

A pesar de que las cifras son optimistas, los especialistas no descartan que se produzcan algunos repuntes de la enfermedad v?rica a principios de 2010 provocados por el descenso habitual de las temperaturas.

La gripe A volvi? a saltar la pasada semana a la actualidad tras conocerse el fallecimiento de una joven de 28 a?os natural de Asturias en el Hospital de Jerez. Seg?n confirmaron desde el SAS en su momento, la afectada no padec?a patolog?as previas y hab?a permanecido ingresada en el centro sanitario durante un mes. La paciente fue diagnosticada de gripe A en su centro de salud y d?as m?s tarde se agrav? su estado de salud.

The virus has hospitalized in Jerez to ten people, some of them in the ICU
17.12.09 - 00:24 -- V. MONTERO | JEREZ.

Ten people remain today admitted in the Hospital de Jerez as a result of influenza A, some of them Intensive Care Unit (ICU) as their pre-conditions such as obesity or respiratory problems, may be aggravated by the contagion of N1H1 virus.

The case fatality rate of this disease in the province of Cadiz is 0.6%, according to sources explained Andalusian Health Service. As experts of Sanitary District had predicted , the highest incidence of flu-like processes (mostly because the influenza A seasonal just made its appearance) occurred at week 46, ie between late November and early December. During those days the statistics of the sentinel network detected 425 cases affected per 100,000 in Cadiz province, while last week the numbers had fallen by almost half, ie 237 cases.

While the drop is notable, the incidence rate in the province remains above the average Andalusian located in 168 cases during the same week. Fortunately, less than 2% of those affected by the virus in Andalusia requiring hospital admission and flu-like processes are occurring in a small way.

Although the figures are optimistic, experts do not rule out the occurrence of some blips of viral disease in early 2010 caused by the usual decrease in temperature.

Influenza A was brought back last week to jump today after news of the death of a young 28 year old native of Asturias at the Hospital de Jerez. As confirmed from the SAS at the time, the affected and suffered no previous pathologies had been admitted to the health center for a month. The patient was diagnosed with influenza A in its health center and days later her health deteriorated.
