Servicio de infectología en los hospitales pediátricos. Una metodología de trabajo Infectious Disease Service in Children Hospitals. A Methodology for Working
Abstract
En las infecciones el inicio rápido de la terapéutica puede salvar la vida, por lo que es necesario establecer un diagnóstico causal preliminar antes del definitivo. El primero debe basarse en la historia, el examen físico, la epidemiología de la enfermedad en la comunidad y los estudios microbiológicos. Entonces será posible instituir tratamiento antimicrobiano contra los posibles agentes causales y revalorarse a medida que se cuenta con información diagnóstica más definitiva, con el objetivo de reducir la morbimortalidad por enfermedades infecciosas en los hospitales pediátricos. Se realiza un trabajo longitudinal de tipo participativo sobre el control de las enfermedades infecciosas de la infancia en el Hospital Pediátrico "Pepe Portilla", proponiendo una metodología de trabajo de los servicios de Infectología resultando de esta investigación una estandarización en el diagnóstico y tratamiento.
