FLUJO SALIVAL EN ADULTOS MAYORES Y SU RELACIÓN CON ENFERMEDADES CRÓNICAS Y EL CONSUMO DE MEDICAMENTOS

Abstract

Objetivo: Determinar la cantidad de flujo salival en pacientes que presentan compromisos sistémicos y/o un consumo crónico de medicamentos y que asisten a las clínicas odontológicas de la Universidad Santo Tomás.Materiales y Métodos: Se desarrolló un estudio observacional analítico de corte transversal en una población de 110 sujetos, con edades entre los 50 y los 85 años. Se tuvieron en cuenta variables sociodemográficas y las relacionadas con el consumo de medicamentos, tipo de medicamentos y condición sistémica. Se usó el test Chi cuadrado y test exacto de Fisher para variables cualitativas, para variables cuantitativa t Student y/o Test de Rangos de Wilcoxon.Resultados: De los pacientes con compromiso sistémico se presentaron con mayor frecuencia los que padecían hipertensión 37 (33.6%) de los cuales presentaron NFSE anormal 27 (60%) y NFSR anormal 30 (53.5%). Los que ingerían medicamentos de tipo antihipertensivo 39 (35.4%) presentaron anormalidad en los NFSE 27 (60%), y además presentaron una disminución de sus NFSR 30 (53.57%). Por grupo de condición sistémica y consumo de medicamentos se observaron diferencias estadísticamente significativas en cuanto a flujo salival estimulado y a flujo salival en reposo, se refiere (p<0.001). La frecuencia de la práctica deportiva reportó una relación protectora de la disminución de flujo salival de 0.63 I.C. [0.41; 0.97] (p=0.04). Igualmente, sucedió con la variable de consumo de alimentos sólidos en el cual se encontró una relación protectora 0.61 I.C. [0.37; 1.02] (p=0.063).Conclusiones: Se pudo determinar que existe una relación directa entre el consumo de medicamentos y la disminución de los niveles de flujo salival estimulado y en reposo.[López SM, Ochoa LF, Valle NM, Aránzazu GC.

Objective: To determine salivary flow rates in patients that have a systemic condition and consumption of medicines who attend the dental clinics of Santo Tomas University.Materials and Methods: An analytic study of transverse court was done in a population of 110 elderly people, with ages among the 50 and the 85 years. For the study they were kept in mind socio-demographic variables and those related with the consumption of medications,type of medications, systemic condition. These variables were evaluated by means of statistical tests as: test squared Chi and exact test of Fisher, for variables of quantitative type t student and/or Mann Whithey.Results: Of the patients with systemic commitment those appeared most frequently that suffered hypertension 37 (33,6%) of which showed abnormal NFSE 27 (60%) and abnormal NFSR 30 (53.5). Those that 39 ingested medicines of the antihypertensive type (35,4%) showed abnormality in NFSE 27 (60%), and in addition displayed a reduction of their NFSR 30 (53,57%). By group of systemic condition and medicine consumption statistically significant differences as far as stimulated salivary flow were observed and to salivary flow in rest, it was about (p< 0,001). The frequency of the sport practice reported a protective relation of the diminution of salivary flow of 0,63 I.C. [0.41; 0.97] (p=0.04). Also, it happened to the variable of solid food consumption in which was a protective relation 0,61 I.C. [0.37; 1.02] (p=0.063).Conclusions: It was possible to be determined that a direct relation between the medicine consumption and the diminution of the levels of stimulated salivary flow exists and in rest.
