Faltando pouco para terminar a segunda temporada do Podcast POEMs da BVS/APS, neste episódio 14 eu vou comentar sobre uma revisão da Cochrane publicada em junho de 2019, falando sobre o uso de probióticos para prevenção de otite média aguda em crianças. Tanto o uso dos probióticos, quanto o estudo da otite média em crianças são temas importantes para a prática do médico em atenção primária. Junto com essa revisão, eu vou iniciar uma pequena série de 3 episódios sobre causalidade em epidemiologia, pois na nossa busca diária de respostas a dúvidas clínicas, compreender como se relacionam causas e efeitos é essencial.

Neste episódio da segunda temporada, o tema é antibiótico na prevenção de exacerbações em pessoas com DPOC. Foi publicado em janeiro de 2021 na biblioteca Cochrane, com metanálise em rede como metodologia principal. Além dos resultados deste estudo, vou comentar sobre como esse tipo de metanálise é realizado e com qual finalidade.

Neste 5º episódio da segunda temporada, vou falar sobre uma revisão sistemática da Cochrane publicada em setembro de 2021, sobre um tema bem importante em várias regiões do Brasil, principalmente região norte e em populações indígenas: Uso de medicação em massa para reduzir a prevalência da doença. Junto a esta revisão, vou falar um pouco sobre ensaios clínicos comunitários, ou em clusters. O que eles têm de diferente dos trials usuais? Como vivem? O que comem? Brincadeiras à parte, é um tipo de delineamento onde é possível avaliar intervenções com foco no nível comunitário.

Katrin beschreibt die Verunsicherung und die Schwierigkeiten ihr Kind spontan zur Welt zu bringen und berichtet, ob dies letzendlich für sie und ihr Kind möglich war. #beckenendlage #mitdempozuerst #falschherumgehtauch #BEL #geburt #PDA #schwanger #geburtshilfe #bensberg #selbstentscheiden #geschichtenuebergeburten #storiesofbirth #birth #breech #podcast #capabilitiesofbirth #geburtserleben NOTES Beckenendlage: 3-4% der Kinder liegen am Ende der Schwangerschaft mit dem Po unten. Viele Kinder drehen sich im Laufe der Schwangerschaft, von Bedeutung ist die Lage ab der 35/36 SSW. Eine Geburt aus BEL ist schwieriger und kann eher zu Komplikationen führen, als wenn das Kind mit dem Kopf unten liegt. Daher kann versucht werden dem Kind anreize zu bieten, sich zu drehen: zum Beispiel durch besondere Positionen der Frau oder durch Moxen. Es kann auch eine äußere Wendung versucht werden, dabei versucht ein Geburtshelfer*in mit den Händen von außen das Kind zu drehen. Derzeit wird davon ausgegangen, dass Komplikationen bei einer vaginalen Geburt und bei einem Kaiserschnitt bei Beckenendlage etwa gleichhäufig auftreten. Ein Problem ist, das viele Geburtshelfer*innen wenig Erfahrung mit einer vaginalen Geburt aus Beckenendlage haben. Es fehlt ihnen also die notwendige Kompetenz um eine Geburt aus Beckenendlage fachgerecht zu begleiten. Es macht daher Sinn sich ein Krankenhaus zu suchen, die viel Erfahrung mit Beckenendlagengeburten haben.
