RESUMO
O atendimento ao paciente pediátrico com atraso no desenvolvimento neuromotor (ADNM), em particular aqueles com diagnóstico de paralisia cerebral (PC), é um grande desafio para os serviços públicos de saúde em todo o mundo. A complexidade do manejo clínico torna relevante uma abordagem integrada e interdisciplinar. O objetivo deste estudo foi conhecer o perfil epidemiológico e as principais comorbidades dos pacientes com ADNM, particularmente com PC, atendidos em um serviço interdisciplinar de referência com 10 anos de experiência no manejo desses pacientes. Estudo transversal descritivo e retrospectivo por meio de análise de prontuários dos pacientes do Ambulatório de Pacientes Especiais do Hospital de Clínicas de Uberlândia no período de 2010 a 2012. Foram analisados 136 prontuários, 79 (58,1%) do sexo masculino e 70 (51,5%) procedentes de Uberlândia. O diagnóstico frequente foi PC 113 (83,1%). A obstipação intestinal (OI) e a doença do refluxo gastroesofágico (DRGE) foram as comorbidades mais frequentes, respectivamente, 85 (62,5%) e 80 (58,8%). Alimentação por via alternativa foi observada em 71 (52,2%), sendo 61 (44,8%) por gastrostomia e 10 (7,3%) por sonda nasoenteral. Doenças respiratórias ocorreram em 59 (43,3%) pacientes e foram responsáveis por internação em 22 (16,1%); 98 (72,0%) pacientes realizavam fisioterapia, 62 (45,6%) fonoterapia e 46 (33,8%) terapia ocupacional. Acompanhamento odontológico foi observadoem 49 (36,0%) deles. O reconhecimento do perfil epidemiológico, comorbidades e complicações mais prevalentes auxiliam a equipe interdisciplinar especializada a desenvolver estratégias para melhor assistência e cuidados aos pacientes com ADNM.
ABSTRACT
Care rendered to pediatric patients with neuromotor delay, particularly those diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy (CP), is a major challenge to public health services worldwide. The complexity of clinical management makes an integrated and multidisciplinary approach relevant. The aim of this study was to get to know the epidemiological profile and the main co- morbidities of patients with neuromotor delay, who are attended in a multidisciplinary referral service which has 10 years experience in the management of these patients. This study was carried out through cross descriptive and retrospective analysis of medical records of patients at the Special Patient Clinic at the University Hospital of Uberlândia, during the period of 2010-2012. One hundred and thirty six (136) records were analyzed, 79 (58.1%) were male and 70 (51.5 %) coming of Uberlândia. The more frequent diagnosis is CP in 113 (83.1%) Intestinal Constipation (IC) and gastro-esophageal reflux disease (GERD) were the most frequent co-morbidities, 85 (62.5%) and 80 (58.8%) respectively. Feeding by way of alternative means was observed in 71 (52.2%), with 61 (44.8%) gastrostomy and 10 (7.3%) through a nasogastric tube. Respiratory disorders occurred in 59 (43.3%) patients and were responsible for hospitalization in 22 (16.1%) cases. 98 (72.0%) patients underwent physical therapy, 62 (45.6%) speech therapy and 46 (33.8%) occupational therapy. Dental care was observed in 49 (36.0%) patients. Recognition of the epidemiological profile, comorbidities and more prevalent complications assist the specialized interdisciplinary team in developing strategies to best support and care for patients with neuromotor delay
