Article Synopsis
  • This study analyzes the evolution of mortality rates for two main heart procedures, percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) and coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), in Spain over a span of years.
  • Using hospital data from 2010-2012 and 2016-2019, researchers applied multivariate regression models to assess mortality differences, taking into account factors like age, gender, and patient health conditions.
  • The findings show that CABG has significantly lower mortality rates, particularly for more complex patients, while the mortality rates for PCI have remained stable, influencing how doctors choose between these treatments for coronary artery disease.

The case corresponds to an adult woman, with a bowing involvement of the left ulna and radius.

In this paper the current regulations on cadaveric preservation practices required for the transfer of corpses in the different Autonomous Communities -Reglamentos de Policía Sanitaria Mortuoria- and national legislation are compared. The criteria taken into account have been: a) which sanitary practices are included in the regulations, b) which ones can be carried out in corpses posing a health risk, c) when they are compulsory to be carried out, d) when they can be carried out after death, and e) what professionals can carry them out and/or take responsibility for them. At the time of finishing the paper, a new mortuary regulation is being passed in Andalusia, as well as a decree from the Ministry of Health on technical and sanitary requirements concerning international transfer of corpses and human remains.
