ABSTRACT

Resumo As doenças da córnea são responsáveis por cerca de 4 a 5% da cegueira reversível no mundo. O transplante de córnea é o tecido mais transplantado em todo o mundo e o único tratamento amplamente aceito para promover a transparência corneana e restaurar a visão. O monitoramento incorporou-se ao campo da Saúde Pública, com o objetivo de acompanhar sistematicamente a atuação das equipes e os dados de produção, por meio da criação de normas, inspeções de avaliação periódicas e acompanhamento dos indicadores de qualidade. As análises críticas dos resultados objetivam apontar falhas e riscos envolvidos no processo, e empreender ações capazes de modificar os achados negativos, a fim de aprimorar a qualidade dos serviços prestados à população. No Brasil, existem diferentes fontes de dados sobre transplantes de córnea e bancos de tecidos oculares. Nesta revisão, foi avaliada a precisão dos dados e a confiabilidade das informações divulgadas pelo Sistema Nacional de Transplantes, pela Associação Brasileira de Transplante de Órgãos e pela Agência Nacional de Vigilância Sanitária sobre a situação do transplante de córnea no Brasil, a fim de nortear governos, gestores em saúde pública e pesquisadores.


Abstract Corneal diseases account for about 4 to 5% of reversible blindness in the world. Corneal transplantation is the most transplanted tissue in the world and the only widely accepted treatment to promote corneal transparency and restore vision. Monitoring was incorporated into the field of Public Health, with the objective of systematically monitoring teams' performance and production data, through the creation of norms, periodic evaluation inspections and monitoring of quality indicators. The critical analyzes of the results aim to point out flaws and risks involved in the process, and to undertake actions capable of modifying the negative findings, in order to improve the quality of the services provided to the population. In Brazil, there are different sources of data on corneal transplants and ocular tissue banks. In this review, the accuracy of the data and the reliability of the information disclosed by the National Transplant System by the Brazilian Organ Transplant Association and the National Sanitary Surveillance Agency on the situation of corneal transplantation in Brazil were evaluated in order to guide governments, public health managers and researchers.

ABSTRACT

O presente trabalho objetiva descrever o processo de doação, captação, fila de espera e transplante de órgãos e tecidos como uma das políticas de saúde no Brasil e no Estado do Rio de Janeiro, com ênfase nos procedimentos relativos aos transplantes de córnea. A baixa notificação de possíveis doadores e a alta taxa de negativa familiar na doação associado ao insuficiente número de córneas disponibilizadas por Banco de Olhos são os principais fatores que limitam o aumento do número dos transplantes de córnea no Brasil. A criação do Banco de Olhos do Rio de Janeiro, associado a politicas que estimulam o aumento da notificação e captação de córneas visa diminuir a fila de espera para transplante de córnea no Estado.


This paper aims to describe the process of organ and tissue donation, tissue harvesting, queue and transplants as a health policy in Brazil and in the State of Rio de Janeiro, with emphasis on procedures for corneal transplantation. The low reporting of possible donors associated with a high rate of negative family in donation, associated with the insufficient number of corneas provided by Eye Banks are the main factors limiting the increase in the number of corneal transplants in Brazil. The creation of the Rio de Janeiro Eye Bank associated with policies that encourage increased reporting and collection of corneas aims to reduce the waiting list for corneal transplantation in Rio de Janeiro State.

ABSTRACT

El documento tiene algunos problemas de nitidez, que dificultan un tanto su lectura, pero solo al inicio. Las afecciones de córnea, son una de las 5 enfermedades que causan ceguera y que son prevenibles. Describe las normas y requisitos para su autorización y funcionamiento. Incluye varias definiciones de conceptos inherentes al tema del acuerdo. Además de describir la organización y estructura de los bancos de córneas, propone la conformación de un comité de trasplantes, describiendo los profesionales que deben conformarlo y sus específicas funciones. Describe también las funciones de los técnicos de cada establecimiento, público y/o privado. Enumera y describe las características físicas (infraestructura), así como el equipamiento y detalles complementarios que deberán ser cumplidas por cada establecimiento solicitante. Otro tanto hace con los detalles, tanto de donadores como de receptores.

ABSTRACT

Late Dr RES Muthiah started the very first eye bank in India and the first corneal transplantation took place successfully by him in India in 1948. From then on a movement started for donation of eyes. The prime concept of Eye Bank Association of India (EBAI) is to motivate the people for eye donation. A vast propaganda throughout the country is going on for eye donation. The community should come forward shedding all inhibitions. EBAI has envisaged a master plan of action to regulate eye bank activities. Under this plan eye donation movement is catching up in the country.
