- La Organización Mundial del Accidente Cerebrovascular aborda las brechas en el acceso a la atención del accidente cerebrovascular de calidad

GINEBRA, Suiza, 28 de octubre de 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- En el Día Mundial del Accidente Cerebrovascular (29 de octubre), la Organización Mundial del Accidente Cerebrovascular ha anunciado el lanzamiento de un nuevo programa que tiene como objetivo impulsar el acceso a una atención de calidad para el accidente cerebrovascular agudo y salvar vidas en todo el mundo.

La iniciativa WSO Stroke Certification es una respuesta estratégica a los resultados de una encuesta de la OMS-WSO que encontró que menos de la mitad (49 %) de los países podrían brindar atención integral basada en evidencia para accidentes cerebrovasculares agudos. La encuesta también identificó una enorme brecha en la prestación de atención entre los países de ingresos altos, bajos y medios. Si bien el 91 % de los países de ingresos altos pudieron brindar acceso a la atención de unidades especializadas en accidentes cerebrovasculares, la cifra fue solo del 8 % en los países de ingresos bajos.

Dos de los marcadores fundamentales de la calidad de la atención del accidente cerebrovascular agudo son la trombólisis (la extracción de coágulos de sangre mediante medicación intravenosa) y la trombectomía (la extracción de coágulos de sangre mediante cirugía mínimamente invasiva). La investigación publicada por WSO encontró que las tasas globales de acceso a estos tratamientos se ubican en 46 % y 30 % respectivamente.

"Uno de cada cuatro de nosotros tendrá un accidente cerebrovascular en su vida, sin embargo, la mayoría de las personas en todo el mundo carecen de acceso a un tratamiento eficaz y atención en centros de accidentes cerebrovasculares. Además de esto, la falta de estrategias de prevención globales efectivas nos ha llevado a un lugar donde el accidente cerebrovascular es la segunda causa principal de muerte y la tercera causa principal de discapacidad en todo el mundo, con un costo humano y económico vertiginoso", dijo el presidente de la OSM, el profesor Marc Pescador. La presidenta entrante de la OSM y destacada neuróloga brasileña, la profesora Sheila Martins añadió: "Tenemos el conocimiento y las herramientas que podrían salvar millones de vidas y cientos de millones de dólares. Proporcionar atención de calidad para el ictus no es solo lo correcto, es lo más inteligente".

Las Directrices y el Plan de acción mundial sobre accidentes cerebrovasculares de la WSO tienen como objetivo ayudar a las instituciones y los gobiernos a implementar criterios y estándares basados en la evidencia para la atención desarrollados por la WSO. Inicialmente dirigido a hospitales en países de ingresos medios, el programa se lanzará el 1 de noviembre con el objetivo principal de hacer crecer la red global de proveedores acreditados de atención de accidentes cerebrovasculares.

El accidente cerebrovascular es una de las principales causas de muerte y discapacidad en todo el mundo. En el Día Mundial del Accidente Cerebrovascular, el público, los profesionales de la salud, los supervivientes de accidentes cerebrovasculares, los políticos y los líderes de la industria se reunirán para crear conciencia sobre los síntomas del accidente cerebrovascular y la importancia del tratamiento oportuno.

El público puede seguir la campaña en las redes sociales usando #Precioustime y ayudar a generar conciencia compartiendo una selfie con un reloj o participando en el desafío del juego en línea strokespotter.org.
