ABSTRACT
Introduction: Bowel obstruction is a complex and difficult to manage disease and its neoplastic etiology is the leading cause of mortality.Objective: To identify predictive mortality factors in the bowel obstruction due to colon cancer.
Methods: Cohort, explanatory and analytical study conducted in "Saturnino Lora Torres" provincial hospital of Santiago de Cuba, during the period of January 2010 to December 2015. A sample of 78 patients was selected. The proportion comparison test with a significance level of p ≤ 0.05 and the multivariable logistic regression test to identify mortality predictors were used.
Results: Male patients (53.8 %, and the location of tumor at the left colon (71.8 %) predominated, with no evidence of significant association between these variables and mortality. Multivariate logistic regression model showed that patients aged more than 61 years, the onset of symptoms after 48 hours, ASA IV and V physical state, resection procedures and the presence of septic shock represent causative factors for mortality. Estimated sensitivity was 86.2, specificity 91.2 and overall predictive percentage 89.7.
Conclusions: It was possible to design a predictive mortality model for bowel obstruction caused by the colon cancer through the identification of highly influential variables on death.
