RESUMEN
La retinopatía diabética (RD) es una microangiopatía progresiva que se caracteriza por lesiones y oclusión de vasos retinales pequeños en personas con diabetes mellitus. En relación a su prevalencia en Chile, contamos con pocos trabajos descritos en la literatura, cabe mencionar que en el trabajo de Verdaguer en el año 2001 se encontró una prevalencia de 28,5 por ciento durante la campaña "Día de la diabetes". Presentamos un estudio retrospectivo de prevalencia, cuyo objetivo es determinar la prevalencia de la RD y sus tipos en la población diabética en 10 comunas del Servicio de Salud Metropolitano Occidente (SSMOC). La muestra consiste en el análisis de los resultados de fotografías retinales tomadas a 4600 pacientes diabéticos. Se encuentra una prevalencia de RD de 20 por ciento de los pacientes diabéticos estudiados, 17 por ciento tenía hallazgos compatibles con una RDNP leve a moderada y 3 por ciento presentaba características de RDNP severa y RDP.
ABSTRACT
Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a progressive microangiopathy characterized by lesions and occlusion of small retinal vessels in people with diabetes mellitus. In relation to their prevalence in Chile, we have few studies reported in the literature, it is noteworthy that in the work of Verdaguer in 2001 found a prevalence of 28.5 percent during the "Day of diabetes". A retrospective study of prevalence, which aims to determine the prevalence of diabetic retinopathy and their rates in the diabetic population in 10 districts of the Western Metropolitan Health Service (SSMOc). The sample consists of the analysis of the results of retinal photographs taken in 4600 diabetic patients. Is a DR prevalence of 20 percent of diabetic patients studied. 17 percent had findings consistent with a mild to moderate no proliferative DR and 3 percent had features of severe no proliferative DR and proliferative DR.
