Abstract
La lumbalgia, caracterizada por dolor en la parte baja de la columna vertebral, tiene prevalencias más altas en países de ingresos altos (aproximadamente 30%) en comparación con países de ingresos bajos (alrededor del 18%). Factores como malas posturas laborales y actividades físicas desfavorables suelen asociarse con su aparición. La infección por COVID-19 se ha asociado con diversas manifestaciones musculoesqueléticas, incluyendo dolor lumbar. La infección por COVID-19 ha mostrado asociación con síntomas musculoesqueléticos, lo que sugiere una posible asociación, principalmente en pacientes que estuvieron postrados hospitalizados, por una respuesta inflamatoria desregulada y liberación de citocinas podrían ocasionar lumbalgia. Objetivo: Determinar a la infección severa por COVID-19 como factor de riesgo para lumbalgia en pacientes atendidos en el Hospital Regional Docente de Trujillo. Material y Métodos: Se desarrollará un diseño observacional, analítico, cohorte retrospectiva. La población de estudio estará conformada por pacientes adultos atendido en el área de Medicina Interna del Hospital Regional Docente de Trujillo durante abril 2020 – abril 2021. El análisis de la asociación mediante el cálculo del Riesgo Relativo (RR).
ABSTRACT Low back pain, characterized by pain in the lower spine, has a higher prevalence in high-income countries (about 30%) than in low-income countries (about 18%). Factors such as poor work posture and unfavorable physical activities are often associated with its occurrence. COVID-19 infection has been associated with various musculoskeletal manifestations, including low back pain. COVID-19 infection has shown an association with musculoskeletal symptoms, suggesting a possible association, especially in hospitalized and bedridden patients, due to a deregulated inflammatory response and release of cytokines that could cause low back pain. Objective: To determine severe infection by COVID-19 as a risk factor for low back pain in patients attended at the Regional Teaching Hospital of Trujillo. Material and Methods: An observational, analytical, retrospective cohort design will be developed. The study population will be made up of adult patients attended in the Internal Medicine Department of the Regional Teaching Hospital of Trujillo during April 2020-April 2021. Analysis of association by calculating relative risk (RR).
