Caracterizaci贸n de la pandemia de gripe A H1N1 2009 en Navarra
Get PDFFundamento. Describir la actividad gripal durante la pandemia de 2009-2010 en Navarra y compararla con la de
temporadas anteriores.
M茅todos. Se han analizado los casos de gripe notificados
en atenci贸n primaria y todas las confirmaciones virol贸gicas
realizadas en pacientes de atenci贸n primaria y en hospitales de Navarra entre las semanas 21 de 2009 y 20 de 2010.
Resultados. El virus de la gripe A (H1N1) 2009 se detect贸
en Navarra entre las semana 23 de 2009 a la 2 de 2010, periodo en el que se registraron 39 casos con diagn贸stico
m茅dico de s铆ndrome gripal por 1.000 habitantes. El umbral epid茅mico se super贸 en dos periodos, con un pico
en julio y otro mayor en noviembre. La mayor incidencia
se alcanz贸 en ni帽os de 5 a 14 a帽os (121 por mil), seguidos por el grupo de menores de 5 a帽os. Se produjeron
224 hospitalizaciones (36 por 100.000 habitantes) con
confirmaci贸n de gripe A H1N1 2009, 8% de ellos requirieron ingreso en unidades de cuidados intensivos y hubo
cuatro defunciones (0,6 por 100.000 habitantes). La tasa
de hospitalizaciones fue mayor en ni帽os menores de 5
a帽os (163 por 100.000 habitantes), mientras que la probabilidad de derivaci贸n a cuidados intensivos aument贸
con la edad.
Conclusi贸n. A pesar de no haber dispuesto de una vacuna
espec铆fica hasta que la temporada estaba muy avanzada,
el virus de gripe A (H1N1) 2009 produjo una onda gripal
en rangos similares a los de otras temporadas y su repercusi贸n en hospitalizaciones y casos graves fue moderada.Background. To describe influenza activity during the
2009-2010 pandemic in Navarre and compare it to previous seasons.
Methods. An analysis was made of all influenza-like illness cases reported in primary care and all the virological confirmations made in patients in primary care and in
hospitals of Navarre between week 21 of 2009 and week
20 of 2010.
Results. Influenza 2009 H1N1 virus was detected in Navarre between week 23 of 2009 and week 2 of 2010, a period
when 39 medically diagnosed cases of influenza-like illness per 1,000 inhabitants were registered. The epidemic
threshold was surpassed in two periods, with a peak in
July and a greater one in November. The greatest incidence was reached in children aged between 5 and 14 years
(121 per thousand), followed by the group of under fives.
There were 224 hospitalisations (36 per 100,000 inhabitants) with confirmation of influenza 2009 H1N1 virus, 8%
of whom required admission to intensive care units and
there were four deaths (0.6 per 100,000 inhabitants). The
rate of hospitalisation was greater amongst children under
five (163 per 100,000 inhabitants), while the probability of
referral to intensive care increased with age.
Conclusion. In spite of not having a specific vaccine available until the season was very well advanced, influenza
2009 H1N1 virus produced a wave of cases with similar
incidence to those of other seasons and its repercussion
in hospitalisations and serious cases was moderate
