RESUMO
RESUMO O edema macular diabético é uma das principais causas de baixa visual no mundo e a indicação mais frequente de injeções intravítreas no Hospital de Clínicas de Porto Alegre. O tratamento com injeção intra-vítrea de medicamentos anti-vascular endothelial growth factor, incluindo o bevacizumaberevolucionou o desfecho visual destes pacientes às custas de múltiplas aplicações mensais. Assim como em outros centros, discrepâncias entre condutas da equipe assistencial e dificuldades logísticas acabam comprometendo a efetividade do tratamento. Portanto, desenvolvemos um protocolo de tratamento para a doença embasado na literatura, estabelecendo critérios de inclusão, exclusão, regime de tratamento e seguimento do paciente. Com isto, esperamos otimizar a efetividade e assistência do paciente com edema macular diabético.
ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT Diabetic macular edema is one of the leading causes of visual impairment worldwide and the most common indication for intravitreal injections at the Hospital de Clínicas de Porto Alegre. Treatment with intravitreal injection of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor drugs, including bevacizumab, has revolutionized patient outcome at the expense of multiple monthly injections. As in other hospitals, discrepancies in health team conduct and logistical difficulties compromise treatment effectiveness. Therefore, we developed a literature-based treatment protocol for diabetic macular edema, in which we established criteria for patient inclusion and exclusion, treatment regimen, and patient follow-up. We expect the treatment protocol to optimize patient care effectiveness in diabetic macular edema.
