RESUMEN
Antecedentes Actualmente los especialistas en alergología realizan la asistencia a nivel hospitalario. Entre los diferentes modelos de asistencia propuestos, en este estudio se aplica la incorporación parcial del alergólogo a centros de asistencia primaria.

Objetivos:

Reducir el tiempo de espera en la primera visita al servicio de alergia. Cuantificar el número de solicitudes y tipo de trastornos derivados para el estudio. Evaluar el grado de resolución del plan y satisfacción de los enfermos. Material y

Métodos:

El estudio se ha realizado desde septiembre de 2004 hasta mayo de 2005. El alergólogo se ha desplazad a un área Básica de Manresa (ABS-M3) para realizar la primera visita, exploraciones complementarias y una encuesta sobre el grado de satisfacción de los usuarios.

Resultados:

Se realizaron 112 primeras visitas con un tiempo máximo de espera de 30 días. La enfermedad respiratoria fue el motivo de consulta más frecuente (79/112, 70.5%) seguida de los síntomas cutáneos (urticaria, angioedema) 36/112 (32,1%), la alergia alimentaria 24/112 (21,4%), el estudio de alergia a fármacos 18/112 (16,1%), la dermatitis de contacto 2/112 (1,8%) y las enfermedades laborales 1/112 (0,9%). El 24,1% (27/112) de los pacientes fue dado de alta desde primaria sin necesidad de desplazarse al hospital mientras que el 75,9% (85/112) se derivó al hospital para completar el estudio o el seguimiento clínico. El absentismo fue inferior al hospitalario (3,4%).

Conclusiones:

El desplazamiento del alergólogo a centros de asistencia primaria reduce la espera para la consulta especializada. La enfermedad más frecuentemente derivada fue la respiratoria. El absentismo fue inferior al hospitalario y el grado de satisfacción de los pacientes elevado
ABSTRACT

Background:

Currently allergologists make their general practice at hospital. The incorporation of allergologists to a primary health care centre is the model that has been applied in this pilot programme.

Objectives:

To reduce the delay for the first visit to the allergy department. To quantify the number of patients and type of pathology derived to study. To determine the level of satisfaction of patients achieved with this programme.

Method:

This study has been carried out from September 2004 to July 2005. An allergologist had moved to one of Manresa Primary Health Care Centers (ABS-M3) to perform the first visit, prick tests, measurement of lung function and a survey about the level of satisfaction of users.

Results:

We evaluated 112 patients with a maximum delay for each patient of 30 days. Respiratory symptom were the most common pathology remitted to study (79/112, 70.5%) followed by urticaria/angioedema (36/112, 32.1%), food allergy (24/112 21.4%), drug allergy 18/112 (16.1%), contact dermatitis 2/112 (1,8%) and occupational disease 1/112 (0.9%). Only 75.9% (85/112) had to be visited at hospital complete the study. The absenteeism level lowered in 3,4% compared with the patients visited in the hospital.

Conclusions:

The transfer of allergologists to primary health care centres reduces the time to the first specialized visit. Respiratory symptoms were the most common pathology derived to study. Absenteeism was lower than visit in hospital and users reported a high satisfaction level. Probably, a mixed model including hospitals and primary health care centres would be a good model to improve medical assistance in allergy
