Resumen

Objetivo: Evaluar el efecto de la terapia combinada, en la vaginosis bacteriana recurrente, en mujeres del Eje Cafetero (Colombia). Métodos: Estudio observacional, en 189 mujeres mayores de 18 años, con diagnóstico de vaginosis bacteriana recurrente siguiendo el puntaje de Nugent. Se les suministró terapia combinada (inducción oral con 500 mg de metronidazol por siete días más 600 mg de ácido bórico vaginal una vez al día durante veintiún días, seguido de 500 mg de nifuratel y 200 000 UI de nistatina vaginal por seis días, cada mes, durante seis meses); quienes asistieron a consulta entre 2017 y 2020. Se hizo seguimiento clínico y de laboratorio utilizando el puntaje de Nugent, a la semana de finalizado el tratamiento oral, al mes, a los tres, seis, nueve y doce meses. Se utilizó estadística descriptiva. Resultados: La edad media de las participantes fue 34,17 ± 5,31 años. La tasa de curación después de la terapia inicial fue 80,42 % (a la semana), al mes: 82,01 %, a los tres meses: 91,53 %, a los seis: 90,47 %, a los nueves: 90,47 % y a los doce meses: 86,24 %. Al finalizar el estudio, la tasa de fracaso fue 9,52 %. No hubo eventos adversos graves; la tasa de satisfacción fue elevada (90,47 %). Conclusiones: La terapia combinada en la vaginosis bacteriana recurrente mejoró la cura clínica y microbiológica y disminuyó el riesgo de recurrencia a los doce meses de seguimiento. Se requiere validación de los presentes resultados en un ensayo clínico controlado aleatorizado.

Objective: To evaluate the effect of combined therapy in recurrent bacterial vaginosis in women from the Coffee Region (Colombia). Methods: Observational study, in 189 women over 18 years, diagnosed with recurrent bacterial vaginosis following the Nugent score. They were given combination therapy (oral induction with 500 mg metronidazole for seven days plus 600 mg vaginal boric acid once daily for twenty-one days, followed by 500 mg nifuratel and 200,000 IU vaginal nystatin for six days, every month, for six months); who attended consultation between 2017 and 2020. Clinical and laboratory follow-up was performed using Nugent’s score, one week after the end of oral treatment, at one month, three, six, nine and twelve months. Descriptive statistics were used. Results: The mean age of participants was 34.17 ± 5.31 years. The cure rate after initial therapy was 80.42% (at week), at month: 82.01 %, three months: 91.53 %, six: 90.47 %, nine: 90.47 % and at twelve months: 86.24 %. At the end of the study, the failure rate was 9.52%. There were no serious adverse events; the satisfaction rate was high (90.47 %). Conclusions: Combination therapy in recurrent bacterial vaginosis improved clinical and microbiological cure and decreased the risk of recurrence at twelve months follow-up. Validation of the present results is required in a randomized controlled clinical trial.
