Resumen
La enfermedad periodontal (EP) es caracterizada por ser una manifestación clínica de enfermedades sistémicas, estas patologías también son consideradas como factores de riesgo de la infección por virus SARS-Cov-2. El objetivo de este trabajo de investigación es analizar la evidencia que hay hasta la fecha de la relación entre la enfermedad periodontal y los pacientes ingresados a la unidad de cuidados intensivos (UCI) por infección de virus SARS-CoV-2. Para la metodología del presente trabajo se realizó un enfoque cuali-cuantitativo, analítico-sintético, análisis documental, ya que se obtuvieron varias fuentes bibliográficas a través de metabuscadores. Entre los principales hallazgos se encontró una alta prevalencia de EP en los pacientes infectados de Covid-19, siendo la periodontitis crónica la patología con más prevalencia en los pacientes que generaban complicaciones relacionadas a la infección. Además, los mediadores proinflamatorios que comparten ambas patologías desempeñan un rol fundamental en el desarrollo de estas complicaciones, dependiendo del aumento en sus niveles, generará cierto grado de complicación. Como conclusión se determinó que la presencia de periodontitis se relaciona con una mayor probabilidad de generar un cuadro grave de infección por Covid-19, necesidad de ventilación mecánica, ingreso a UCI y muerte.
Periodontal disease (PD) is characterized as a clinical manifestation of systemic diseases, these pathologies are also considered risk factors for SARS-Cov-2 virus infection. The objective of this research work is to analyze the evidence to date of the relationship between periodontal disease and patients admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) due to SARS-CoV-2 virus infection. For the methodology of this work, a qualitative-quantitative, analytical-synthetic, documentary analysis approach was carried out, since several bibliographic sources were obtained through metasearch engines. Among the main findings, a high prevalence of PD was found in patients infected with Covid-19, with chronic periodontitis being the most prevalent pathology in patients that generated complications related to infection. In addition, the pro-inflammatory mediators that both pathologies share play a fundamental role in the development of these complications, depending on the increase in their levels, it will generate a certain degree of complication. In conclusion, it was determined that the presence of periodontitis is related to a greater probability of generating a serious picture of Covid-19 infection, the need for mechanical ventilation, admission to the ICU, and death
