Resumen
La infección por el virus Zika produce clínica similar al catarro común. En el Ecuador comenzaron a captarse pacientes con complicaciones neurológicas secundarias a la infección siendo la más llamativa el Síndrome de Guillain-Barre. La ciudad de Guayaquil por ubicación y clima es propicia para el estudio de la patología. El propósito de la investigación es determinar que síntoma en pacientes positivos para Zika en LCR es predictor de complicación neurológica. Para este estudio de carácter retrospectivo, transversal, observacional, se utilizó la base de datos electrónica del Hospital Luis Vernaza, seleccionando aquellos pacientes que hayan ingresado por deterioro neurológico con síntomas y signos clínicos sugestivos de Zika, posteriormente reportados positivo en LCR. Después de análisis en SPSS utilizando tablas de contingencia y el método del Chi cuadrado, se concluye que la asociación presente en los pacientes seleccionados es el exantema con un valor de 0.003 en relación con el síndrome de Guillain-Barre. De acuerdo a la muestra el exantema es sugestivo de complicación neurológica por asociación estadística.
The Zika virus infection produces a syndrome similar to the common cold. In Ecuador, MSP got reports of neurological complications secondary to the infection, being Guillain-Barre syndrome the most striking one. Guayaquil city due to its location and climate is ideal for this kind of study. The purpose of the investigation is to determine which symptom in patients positive for Zika in CSF is a positive predictor of neurological complication. For this retrospective, cross-sectional, observational study, the electronic database of Luis Vernaza Hospital was used, selecting patients who had been admitted due to neurological deterioration with signs and symptoms suggestive of Zika, later reported positive in CSF. After analysis in SPSS using contingency tables and Chi square, it is concluded that the association present in selected patients is exanthema with a value of 0.003 in relation to Guillain-Barre syndrome. According to the sample, exanthema is suggestive of neurological complication by statistical association.
