Resumen

Introducción: Los programas de hospitalización domiciliaria dependen de dispositivos de acceso vascular para administrar antimicrobianos parenterales. Aunque las guías recomiendan catéteres centrales de inserción periférica (PICC) para tratamientos de ≥14 días, se utilizan con frecuencia catéteres periféricos cortos (SPC). Los estudios de costo-efectividad que comparen estos dispositivos y sus complicaciones son limitados. Objetivo: Evaluar económicamente el uso del PICC y el SPC en pacientes con terapia antimicrobiana parenteral ambulatoria.   Materiales y Métodos: Se revisaron 1053 artículos sobre complicaciones relacionadas con catéteres, seleccionando 18 tras revisión por pares. Se consultó a expertos y se elaboró una lista de insumos para calcular costos. Se desarrolló un modelo de árbol de decisión con frecuencias de complicaciones y costos, utilizando análisis de costo-efectividad incremental (ICER), sensibilidad univariada (diagrama de tornado) y multivariada (simulación de Monte Carlo). Resultados:   Las complicaciones mayores fueron similares entre dispositivos, pero las menores fueron más frecuentes con el SPC. El PICC presentó costos más altos asociados al material y a inserciones realizadas por radiólogos. El análisis multivariado mostró ICER de $49,2 con un 90% de inserciones por enfermeras y de $24,3 con un 100%, asumiendo una reducción del 50% en el precio del PICC. Discusión: Los PICC parecen más efectivos en la prevención de complicaciones menores. Las inserciones por enfermería y la reducción del costo del material del catéter podrían disminuir significativamente los costos totales. Conclusiones:  Incrementar el uso del PICC para tratamientos prolongados podría reducir costos y mejorar la costo-efectividad, siendo más económico pese a costos iniciales más altos.
