Abstract(s)
Introdução: A Corona-Virus-Disease-19 (COVID-19) é uma doença causada pelo novo
coronavírus (nCov-2019), que se manifesta predominantemente por sintomas de febre, tosse e
dificuldade respiratória. A projecção de gotas de sangue, saliva ou de secreções nasofaríngeas
diretamente sobre mucosas e/ou pele constituem uma possível via de transmissão de substâncias
causadoras de doenças a outros indivíduos. Por ser a medicina dentária uma das ocupações mais
arriscadas, o controlo da infeção determinou a necessidade de modificar protocolos terapêuticos
na prática clínica devido a propagação repentina da Síndrome Respiratória Aguda Grave-2
(SARS-CoV-2).
Objectivo: O objetivo deste estudo consistiu em conhecer os cuidados a adoptar em medicina
dentária no contexto da pandemia COVID-19.
Materiais e métodos: Pesquisas em base de dados on line PubMed, PMC e MedLine até
outubro de 2020 e listas de referências de publicações relevantes. Considerou-se elegíveis os
critérios: texto integral disponível; ensaios clínicos, ensaios clínicos controlados e
randomizados; estudos em humanos; revisões sistemáticas; meta-análises; estudos
comparativos; estudos originais: prospetivo e retrospetivo; relatos de casos e textos relevantes
que tivessem ao menos uma ocorrência relacionando COVID-19 e as palavras-chave que
compõem este trabalho.
Resultados: Foram encontrados 148 artigos numa pesquisa livre. Numa análise mais criteriosa
chegou-se uma subtração de 61 artigos.
Conclusão: A equipa de medicina dentária deve reconsiderar o nível de risco infecioso de cada
procedimento e perceber das potenciais implicações da transmissão por SARS-CoV-2,
mantendo-se atualizados com as novas informações sobre a doença a fim de reduzir o risco de
contágio pela saúde e segurança de sua comunidade.
Introduction: Corona-Virus-Disease-19 (COVID-19) is a disease caused by the novel coronavirus (nCov-2019), which manifests itself predominantly by symptoms of fever, cough and difficulty breathing. The projection of droplets of blood, saliva or nasopharyngeal secretions directly on mucous membranes and / or skin constitute a possible route of transmission of disease-causing substances to other individuals. As dentistry is one of the most risky occupations, infection control has determined the need to modify therapeutic protocols in clinical practice due to the sudden spread of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome-2 (SARSCoV-2). Objective: The objective of this study was to know the care to be taken in dentistry in the context of the pandemic COVID-19. Materials and methods: Research in PubMed, PMC and MedLine online database until October 2020 and reference lists of relevant publications. The following criteria were considered eligible: full text available; clinical trials, controlled and randomized clinical trials; human studies; systematic reviews; meta-analyzes; comparative studies; original studies: prospective and retrospective; case reports and relevant texts that had at least one occurrence relating COVID-19 and the keywords that make up this study. Results: 148 articles were found in a free search. In a more careful analysis, 61 articles were subtracted. Conclusion: The dental team must reconsider the level of infectious risk of each procedure and understand the potential implications of transmission by SARS-CoV-2, keeping up to date with new information about the disease in order to reduce the risk of contagion for the health and safety of your community.
