ABSTRACT

Los problemas de oído, nariz y garganta son un motivo frecuente de consulta en Atención Primaria. Numerosos estudios han reportado que los médicos de Atención Primaria perciben una capacitación insuficiente en el manejo de estos problemas. El objetivo de este estudio fue evaluar las competencias en el diagnóstico y tratamiento de problemas prevalentes de Otorrinolaringología de médicos residentes de Atención Primaria en un hospital universitario, en Buenos Aires, Argentina, mediante la implementación de un examen clínico objetivo estructurado. Participaron 25 residentes, de Pediatría (7), de Medicina Interna (10) y de Medicina Familiar (8). Los de Medicina Familiar y Pediatría tuvieron mejor desempeño que los de Medicina Interna. Los residentes de Atención Primaria demostraron competencias disímiles en el manejo de problemas prevalentes de Otorrinolaringología. Se detectaron áreas de oportunidad de mejora comunes para los tres grupos, que proporcionaron dirección y motivación en futuros aprendizajes, tanto en conocimientos como en habilidades.


Ear, nose and throat problems are very common in Primary Care settings. Numerous studies have reported that Primary Care physicians feel dissatisfied with their performance and insufficient training to diagnose and manage these problems. The objective of this study was to assess the competency in diagnosis and management of prevalent ear, nose and throat problems in medical residents of Family Medicine, Internal Medicine and Pediatrics at a University Hospital in Buenos Aires, Argentina, using an Objective Structured Clinical Examination. The participants were 25 residents of Pediatrics (7), Internal Medicine (10) and Family Medicine (8). Residents of Family Medicine and Pediatrics showed better performance than residents of Internal Medicine. Residents of Primary Care demonstrated dissimilar competencies in the management of prevalent ear, nose and throat problems. Areas of common improvement opportunities were detected for the three groups, which provided direction and motivation in future learnings in both knowledge and skills.
