Abstract(s)
Introdução: A pneumonia nosocomial é caraterizada pela infeção do trato respiratório
inferior, adquirida em meio hospitalar, com uma elevada taxa de prevalência em Portugal. A
colonização microbiana oral e a doença periodontal podem influenciar a progressão desta
infeção, uma vez que resulta da aspiração da flora da orofaringe.
Objetivo: Avaliar a relação entre a pneumonia nosocomial e a doença periodontal, incidindo
particularmente sobre o possível efeito do tratamento periodontal no controlo da infeção
nosocomial em pacientes hospitalizados.
Materiais e Métodos: Realizou-se uma pesquisa bibliográfica recorrendo à base de dados da
PubMed e foram incluídos ensaios clínicos randomizados, publicados entre 2010 e 2020, em
inglês e em português.
Resultados/Conclusões: Após a análise da literatura pode-se concluir que o tratamento
periodontal possui um efeito benéfico sobre o controlo da pneumonia nosocomial,
particularmente em pacientes mecanicamente ventilados. No entanto, são necessários mais
estudos, com viés mínimo, para uma efetiva implementação de diretrizes.
Introduction: Nosocomial pneumonia is characterized by lower respiratory tract infection, acquired in a hospital setting, with a high prevalence rate in Portugal. Oral microbial colonization and periodontal disease may influence the progression of this infection as it results from aspiration of the oropharynx flora. Objective: To evaluate the relationship between nosocomial pneumonia and periodontal disease, focusing particularly on the possible effect of periodontal treatment on the control of nosocomial infection in hospitalized patients. Materials and Methods: A bibliographic research using the Pubmed database was conducted and randomized clinical trials published between 2010 and 2020 in English and Portuguese were included. Results/Conclusions: After the literature analysis it can be concluded that periodontal treatment has a beneficial effect on the control of nosocomial pneumonia, particularly in mechanically ventilated patients. However, more studies, with minimal bias, are needed for an effective implementation of guidelines.
