OBJECTIVE: To describe the impact of @entity302 surgery on quality of life through the application of the quality of life in @entity302 (QOLIE-10) scale in a low income population. METHODS: We conducted an observational, descriptive, and cross-sectional study. The data for all @entity1 who underwent @entity302 surgery from the aforementioned period were registered retrospectively through a review of their clinical history. Clinical variables of interest for this study were obtained through phone contact, and the QOLIE-10 scale was applied. RESULTS: This study included a total of 89 @entity1 with whom phone contact was established and who met the inclusion criteria. Of these @entity1 , 30.3% were without anti- @entity410 medication at the time of the survey's application, and only 19.1% were still under polytherapy. A total of 47.1% of the @entity1 had returned to some work activity that they would have not been able to perform before because of their disease. All of the components of the QOLIE-10 scale improved significantly (p<0.05) after the surgical procedure, except the variable of "fear of the sudden occurrence of @entity410 ". The variables with greatest impact after the surgical procedure were @entity308 , work activity, and quality of life in general. CONCLUSION: @entity302 surgery has a positive impact on the quality of life of @entity1 with low resources and in vulnerable social conditions. It is still to be determined if, in this population, work and social reintegration have a greater impact on the quality of life than other clinical and/or paraclinical variables.
