Abstract
Introduction. The State Cancer Center (CECan) of the State of Veracruz presents its hospital in- dicators for the evaluation of its services and in this work the indicators of 13 years are reflected of period 2006-2018. Objective. To present a brief vision of the markers traditionally used in the CE- Can of its 13-year productivity, in order to be able to locate itself within the national panorama of the State Cancer Centers dependent on the Mi- nistry of Health in coordination with the National Cancer Institute. Material and method. Retros- pective work carrying out an analysis of the hos- pital indicators of the yearbooks from January 1, 2006 to December 31, 2018. The following were analyzed: consultations, hospital admission and discharge, surgical interventions, hospital occu- pation, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, pathologi- cal studies, blood transfusions and nosocomial infections, laboratory studies, hospital mortality. Results. Most frequent age group 30-49, 65.2% women-34.8% men; morbidity in consultation: breast cancer, cervical cancer, leukemia, lympho- ma, prostate, ovary, digestive organs, endome- trium and testicle. Days of stay 5.2, for every 100 discharges 60 surgeries were performed, patholo- gies treated with radiotherapy: breast cancer, cer- vical cancer, prostate cancer, leukemia, rectum, endometrium. Increase in chemotherapy in 13 years of 16%, average annual nosocomial infec- tions 20.2%, gross mortality in this period of 3.7%, main causes of admission: breast cancer, cervix, hematopoietic neoplasia and digestive organs. Conclusions. This report on hospital indicators could be a mirror of the other cancer centers or services that treat this disease in Mexico, but un- fortunately the reports do not cover the totality of hospital productivity.
