Abstract(s)
Na atualidade a Medicina dentária tem expandido informações sobre da necessidade de promover cuidados com a saúde oral. O número de pacientes idosos, muitas vezes com múltiplas co-morbilidades que procuram atendimento odontológico está aumentando.
Emergências médicas são situações inesperadas que potencializam o Stress tanto do paciente quanto do médico-dentista, além do risco de morte do paciente. Nos consultórios de medicina dentária, emergências médicas como síncope, reação alérgica, intoxicação por anestésico local, hipoglicemia, hipotensão ortostática e crise hipertensiva, são situações agudas e potencialmente fatais que necessitam de tratamento
imediato. Também podem fazer parte da lista de emergências médicas os fatores subjetivos, tais como Stress psicológico dos pacientes, ou fatores objetivos, como procedimentos invasivos ou que causam dor. Nesse contexto, cabe essencialmente aos médicos dentistas prestarem assistência oportuna ao paciente, ao mesmo tempo que gerem a situação de forma abrangente. Tais intercorrências podem ocorrer antes do
início do tratamento, entre as consultas ou após a conclusão ou muitos anos depois do fim do tratamento odontológico.
Dentistry is currently expanding information on the need to promote oral health care. The number of elderly patients, often with multiple co-morbidities, seeking dental care is increasing. Medical emergencies are unexpected situations that increase stress for both the patient and the dentist, as well as the risk of death for the patient. In dental practices, medical emergencies such as syncope, allergic reaction, local anesthetic intoxication, hypoglycemia, orthostatic hypotension and hypertensive crisis are acute and potentially fatal situations that require immediate treatment. Subjective factors, such as patients' psychological stress, or objective factors, such as invasive procedures or those that cause pain can also be included in the list of medical emergencies. In this context, it is essentially up to dentists to provide timely assistance to the patient, while managing the situation comprehensively. Such intercurrences can occur before treatment begins, between appointments or after dental treatment has been completed or many years later.
