RESUMO

Introducción: El cáncer de tiroides es una enfermedad frecuente en el mundo, con mayor prevalencia del tipo diferenciado. El diagnóstico temprano y manejo pertinente, individualizado y adaptable puede mejorar su pronóstico. Objetivo: Generar recomendaciones basadas en evidencia sobre el tratamiento y seguimiento de personas adultas con cáncer diferenciado de tiroides (CDT). Metodología: Guía de práctica clínica (GPC) a partir de revisión sistemática de literatura (RSL) y consenso de expertos clínicos. El grupo desarrollador definió el alcance y cuatro preguntas que se resolvieron a través de revisión de evidencia de GPC existentes, RSL, estudios primarios publicadas en español o inglés en diferentes fuentes de información desde 2013. Las preguntas de investigación fueron: 1. ¿Cuáles son las indicaciones de la vigilancia activa?, ¿cómo realizarla?, ¿cuándo y con que periodicidad realizarla? 2. ¿Cuál es el tratamiento y su indicación en pacientes con nódulos tiroideos sospechosos de cáncer? 3. ¿Cómo y cuándo realizar seguimiento de pacientes con CDT de acuerdo con el riesgo dinámico? 4. ¿Cuál es el manejo actual de los pacientes iodo refractarios? Se propusieron recomendaciones basadas en la evidencia, y analizadas y discutidas por el colectivo experto en sesiones asincrónicas. Se evalúo la calidad de la evidencia y las recomendaciones fueron gradadas en fuerte o condicional y a favor o en contra a partir del análisis de la calidad de la evidencia, contexto de implementación (disponibilidad e implementación) y la experticia clínica. En el presente documento se desarrollada la primera pregunta, referente a vigilancia activa. Resultados: 86 recomendaciones fueron propuestas y acordadas por el grupo desarrollador, categorizadas en tratamiento y seguimiento para resolver las preguntas planteadas. 10 de las recomendaciones corresponden a vigilancia activa y se incluyen en el presente documento. Recomendaciones claves incluyen, brindar información completa y oportuna a pacientes, conformación de equipos multidisciplinarios, análisis individualizado del paciente para la decisión de tratamiento, estadificación rutinaria de riesgo dinámico para evaluar la respuesta al tratamiento y ajustarlo, minimización de procedimientos fútiles o que aportan poco a la supervivencia y calidad de vida de los pacientes. Conclusión: Se presentan recomendaciones que esperan incidir en la estandarización de la práctica clínica cotidiana de pacientes con CDT y mejores resultados en salud.


Introduction: Thyroid cancer is a common disease in the world, with a higher prevalence of the differentiated type. Early diagnosis individualized and adaptive management can improve prognosis. Objective: Generate evidence-based recommendations on the treatment and follow-up of adults with differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC). Methodology: Clinical practice guideline (CPG) based on systematic literature review (RSL) and consensus of clinical experts. The development group defined the range and four questions that were resolved through a review of evidence from existing CPGs, RSLs, primary studies published in Spanish or English in various sources of information since 2013. The research questions were: 1. What are the indications for active surveillance? How to carry it out? When and how often to carry it out? 2. What is the treatment and its indication in patients with thyroid nodules suspicious for cancer? 3. How and when to follow up patients with CDT according to dynamic risk? 4. What is the current management of iodine refractory patients? Evidence-based recommendations analyzed and discussed by the expert group in asynchronous sessions were proposed. The quality of the evidence was evaluated, and the recommendations were graded as strong or conditional and in favor or against based on the analysis of the quality of the evidence, implementation context (availability and implementation) and clinical expertise. In this document, is developed the first question, referring to active surveillance. Results: 86 recommendations were proposed and agreed upon by the development group, categorized into treatment and follow-up to solve the questions raised. 10 of the recommendations correspond to active surveillance and are included in this document. Key recommendations include providing complete and timely information to patients, develop of multidisciplinary teams, individualized patient analysis for treatment decisions, routine dynamic risk staging to evaluate response to treatment and adjust it, minimization of futile procedures or that contribute little to the survival and quality of life of patients. Conclusion: Recommendations are presented that longs to influence the standardization of the daily clinical practice of patients with DTC and better health outcomes.

ABSTRACT Background: Urinary tract infection (UTI) is a common disease in childhood and one of the most common causes of consultation in the pediatric emergency department. Its incidence ranges between 5% and 10% in children under 2 years old. Objective: To generate recommendations on the diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of UTI in pediatric patients in Colombia. Methods: 15 questions of clinical interest in the diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of UTI in pediatric patients were formulated. A systematic review of the literature was carried out to identify the clinical practice guidelines (CPG) available in UTI, in order to use this evidence to answer the proposed questions and articulate the recommendations. Local and international tools were used to select and evaluate the CPGs. Information was retrieved from the selected guidelines, preliminary recommendations were compiled, and final recommendations were approved by expert consensus. Finally, the strength and direction of each recommendation was assessed. Results: A total of 4 CPGs were selected: American Academy of Pediatrics, Spanish Ministry of Health, McTaggart, and National Institute for Health and Care Excellence. Final recommendations for the diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up of UTI are presented in this paper. Conclusions: These recommendations will guide the teams to make clinical decisions regarding health care of pediatric patients with UTI in Colombia. This will help to improve health care and to generate policies for timely diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up in these patients.

RESUMO

Autosomal dominant tubulointerstitial kidney disease (ADTKD) is a low-prevalence pathology mainly associated with pathogenic variants of the UMOD gene. It is characterized by the progressive deterioration of renal function, associated with hyperuricemia and accompanied by a family history of gout or hyperuricemia. Often, clinical variability and a lack of molecular testing results in diagnostic failure to determine the ADTKD-UMOD association. Case presentation: We describe the case of a 14-year-old male who presented to the nephrology service with hyperuricemia, renal ultrasonographic changes, and progression to chronic kidney disease in 4 years. He had a family history of hyperuricemia. A probable genetic disease with an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern was considered, confirmed by the presence of a probably pathogenic variant of the UMOD gene, not previously reported in the literature. Conclusion: The investigation of this case led to the identification of a new variant in the UMOD gene, broadening the spectrum of known variants for ADTKD-UMOD. In addition, in this case, a comprehensive anamnesis, that takes into account family history, was the key point to carry out genetic tests that confirmed the diagnosis suspicion. Directed Genetic tests are currently an essential diagnostic tool and should be performed as long as they are available and there is an indication to perform them.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The prevention and control of SARS-CoV-2 infection in hemodialysis (HD) units is challenging. AIM: To describe the clinical characteristics and outcome of patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) on HD with COVID-19, between March 2020 and January 28, 2021, attending a single HD unit in Bogotá, Colombia. MATERIAL AND METHODS: In this prospective observational study, incidence, prevalence, and case-fatality rate were estimated, including screening results with RT-PCR and anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG and IgM antibodies in all patients and health personnel in the HD unit. RESULTS: Among patients and health workers, 55 and 9 cases of COVID-19 were identified, respectively. The median age of patients was 63 years (84% males). Fifty five percent of patients were symptomatic, with fever, cough and/or myalgia. The most common comorbidities were hypertension, type 2 diabetes mellitus, and coronary heart disease. The cumulative incidence of infection was 30.2%, population seroprevalence was 24.9%, and fatality was 9.1%. CONCLUSIONS: The incidence of SARS-CoV-2 infection in this HD unit was high. Strict biosafety protocols are required to prevent outbreaks.

RESUMO

Antecedentes: la enfermedad de Fabry (Ef) es una enfermedad rara ligada a X secundaria al depósito lisosomal de glicoesfingolípidos, debido a la deficiencia de la enzima alfa galactosidasa A (α-Gal A). A pesar de su baja frecuencia, es una condición que afecta la calidad de vida de los pacientes y disminuye su esperanza de vida. Objetivo: generar recomendaciones informadas para el diagnóstico y tratamiento de pacientes pediátricos (menores de 18 años) con Ef. Material y Métodos: revisión de literatura en bases de datos y literatura gris a partir de 2010, incluyendo guías de práctica clínica, revisiones sistemáticas y estudios primarios. La calidad de evidencia se evaluó de acuerdo con el tipo. Las recomendaciones se sometieron a consenso de expertos a través de metodología Delphi modificada. El acuerdo se definió a partir del 80 %. Resultados: A partir del análisis de la evidencia recolectada se formularon un total de 45 recomendaciones para tamización, diagnóstico y tratamiento de paciente pediátrico con Ef. El panel revisor estuvo conformado por once expertos en el tema. Las recomendaciones fueron aprobadas con puntuaciones entre 82.3 % y 100 %. Conclusiones: las recomendaciones resultantes del consenso de expertos permitirán la toma de decisiones clínicas y estandarización de la práctica en la atención de pacientes pediátricos con Ef en el país y la región. El diagnóstico temprano y oportuno garantiza una disminución del impacto en la calidad de vida de los pacientes y sus familiares


Background: Fabry disease (fD) is a rare X-linked disease characterized by the accumulation of glyco- sphingolipids in lysosomes due to the deficiency in the production of alpha-galactosidase A (α-Gal A) enzyme. Despite its low frequency, this disease has a serious impact on the life expectancy and quality. Objective: To make evidence-based recommendations for the diagnosis and treatment of fD in pediatric patients (<18 years of age). Materials and Methods: A study of databases and gray literature was conducted in 2010, including clinical practice guidelines, systematic reviews, and primary research. The type of evidence was used to determine the quality of evidence. The recommendations were submitted to an expert consensus using the modified Delphi process. The agreement was set at 80%. Conclusions: The recommendations emerging from this expert consensus will enable the standardization of care provision for pediatric patients with fD in Colombia and Latin America and clinical decision-making for disease management. Notably, making an early diagnosis ensures a reduction in the impact of this disease on the quality of life of patients and their families


Fundamento: a doença de Fabry (Df) é uma rara doença ligada ao cromossomo X secundária à deposi- ção lisossômica de glicoesfingolipídeos devido à deficiência da enzima alfa galactosidase A (α-Gal A). Apesar de sua baixa frequência, é uma condição que afeta a qualidade de vida dos pacientes e diminui sua expectativa de vida. Objetivo: gerar recomendações baseadas em evidências para o diagnóstico e tratamento de pacientes pediátricos (com menos de 8 anos de idade) com Df. Materais e Métodos: foi realizada uma revisão da literatura em bases de dados e literatura cinza a partir de 2010, incluindo diretrizes de prática clínica, revisões sistemáticas e estudos primários. A qualidade da evidência foi avaliada de acordo com o tipo de evidência. As recomendações foram submetidas ao consenso de especialistas usando a metodologia Delphi modificada. A concordância foi definida a partir de 80%. Resultados: com base na análise das evidências coletadas, foram formuladas um total de 45 recomendações para triagem, diagnóstico e tratamento de pacientes pediátricos com doença de Fabry. O painel de revisão foi composto por onze especialistas no assunto. As recomendações foram aprovadas com pontuações entre 82,3% e 100%. Conclusões: as recomendações resultantes do consenso de especialistas permitirão a tomada de decisão clínica e a padronização da prática no cuidado de pacientes pediátricos com Df em nível nacional e regional; o diagnóstico precoce e oportuno garante a redução do impacto na qualidade de vida dos pacientes e seus familiares.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the association between Colombia's third wave when the Mu variant was predominant epidemiologically (until 75%) in Colombia and COVID-19 all-cause in-hospital mortality. METHODS: In this retrospective cohort, we included hospitalized patients ≥18 years with SARS-CoV-2 infection between March 2020 to September 2021 in ten hospitals from three cities in Colombia. Description analysis, survival, and multivariate Cox regression analyses were performed to evaluate the association between the third epidemic wave and in-hospital mortality. RESULTS: A total of 25,371 patients were included. The age-stratified time-to-mortality curves showed differences according to epidemic waves in patients ≥75 years (log-rank test p = 0.012). In the multivariate Cox analysis, the third wave was not associated with increased mortality relative to the first wave (aHR 0.95; 95%CI 0.84-1.08), but there was an interaction between age ≥75 years and the third wave finding a lower HR for mortality (aHR 0.56, 95%CI 0.36-0.86). CONCLUSIONS: We did not find an increase in in-hospital mortality during the third epidemic wave in which the Mu variant was predominant in Colombia. The reduced hazard in mortality in patients ≥75 years hospitalized in the third wave could be explained by the high coverage of SARS-CoV-2 vaccination in this population and patients with underlying conditions.

RESUMO

Contexto las personas con diálisis se consideran una población de alto riesgo de infección por SARS-CoV-2, complicaciones y muerte. En Colombia, cerca del 44 % de la población en diálisis es menor de 60 años, adicionalmente, por los mismos retos que ha impuesto la pandemia a los programas de trasplantes, se ha incrementado notoriamente la población joven que debe seguir en diálisis al no tener opción a corto plazo de un trasplante renal, por lo tanto, las limitaciones en el acceso temprano a la vacunación contra SARS-CoV-2 agudizarían los problemas de esta población, provocando pérdidas considerables en años de vida que la vacuna podría salvar. Objetivo el objetivo del presente documento es sintetizar los principales motivos por los que se recomienda la priorización de la vacunación de los pacientes en diálisis crónica y lista de espera para trasplante renal. Metodología se realizó una búsqueda rápida de información sobre la vacunación en pacientes con ERC en diálisis o en espera de trasplante renal. La información resultante fue analizada críticamente por expertos en nefrología para la formulación de recomendaciones. Los resultados de la búsqueda se presentan a manera de síntesis narrativa. Resultados a partir de la información revisada y discutida por los expertos en nefrología se proponen 4 recomendaciones para la vacunación contra el virus SARS-Cov-2. Conclusiones la Asociación Colombiana de Nefrología e Hipertensión Arterial, la Asociación Colombiana de Nefrología Pediátrica y la Asociación Colombiana de Trasplante de Órganos, comprometidos con la salud de los pacientes con enfermedad renal en diálisis y listas de espera de trasplantes en Colombia, se unen a la solicitud mundial de generar recomendaciones para la vacunación contra SARS-CoV-2.


Background People on dialysis are considered a high-risk population for SARS-CoV-2 infection, complications, and death. In Colombia, about 44% of the population on dialysis is under 60 years of age. In addition, due to the same challenges that the pandemic has imposed on transplant programs, the young population that must continue on dialysis has increased markedly, as they have no option in the short term of a kidney transplant, therefore, the limitations in early access to vaccination against SARS-CoV-2 would exacerbate the problems of this population, causing considerable losses in years of life that the vaccine could save. Purpose The objective of this document is to summarize the main reasons why the prioritization of vaccination of patients on chronic dialysis and on the kidney transplant waiting list is recommended. Methodology A rapid search for information on vaccination in patients with CKD on dialysis or awaiting kidney transplantation was performed. The resulting information was critically analyzed by experts in nephrology for the formulation of recommendations. The search results are presented as a narrative synthesis. Results Based on the information reviewed and discussed by nephrology experts, 4 recommendations are proposed for vaccination against the SARS-Cov-2 virus. Conclusions The Colombian Association of Nephrology and Arterial Hypertension (ASOCOLNEF), the Colombian Association of Pediatric Nephrology (ACONEPE) and the Colombian Association of Organ Transplantation (ACTO), committed to the health of patients with kidney disease on dialysis and transplant waiting lists in Colombia, join to generate recommendations for prioritization and vaccination against SARS-CoV-2.

RESUMO

ABSTRACT: Introduction: SARS-COV2 infection, which was initially associated with respiratory manifestations only, can also cause gastrointestinal, kidney, neurological and cardiovascular symptoms according to some reports. Case presentation: A 36-year-old female patient attended the emergency department due to dyspnea, asthenia, adynamia, mild odynophagia. and headache. The patient's medical history included obesity, smoking, and working as a health care worker. Considering the symptoms, antimalarial and antiretroviral treatment was indicated to treat COVID-19, a diagnosis that was confirmed three days after admission. However, on the fourth day of treatment, the patient presented with polydipsia and macular, pruritic, and generalized rash. Due to suspicion of toxicoderma, the treatment was suspended, and the skin condition improved. After 8 days of hospitalization, the patient was discharged with biosecurity recommendations and mandatory isolation for 28 days. Conclusion: The described case is a report of toxicoderma in a patient with COVID-19 under treatment with antiretroviral and antimalarial drugs. Based on the findings, a thorough examination of skin and mucosa of patients with suspected or confirmed COVID-19 will undoubtedly contribute to the correct characterization of this new disease.


RESUMEN Introducción. La infección por SARS-COV2, que en principio se pensó solo causaba manifestaciones respiratorias, también puede ocasionar síntomas gastrointestinales, renales, neurológicos, cardiovasculares e incluso cutáneos según algunos reportes. Presentación del caso. Paciente femenina de 36 años quien asistió al servicio de urgencias por cuadró clínico consistente en disnea, astenia, adinamia, odinofagia leve y cefalea. Como antecedentes de relevancia se registró obesidad, tabaquismo y ocupación como trabajadora de la salud. Dados los síntomas, se indicó tratamiento antimalárico y antirretroviral para tratar COVID-19, diagnóstico que fue confirmado a los tres días de ingreso, pero al cuarto día de instaurado este manejo la mujer presentó polidipsia y rash macular, pruriginoso y generalizado. Por sospecha de toxicodermia, el tratamiento fue suspendido y con esto el cuadro cutáneo mejoró. Luego de 8 días de hospitalización, la paciente recibió el alta, junto con recomendaciones de bioseguridad y confinamiento durante 28 días. Conclusiones. El caso descrito corresponde a un evento de toxicodermia en una paciente con COVID-19 en manejo con antirretroviral y antimalárico. A partir de los hallazgos, se establece que la exploración minuciosa de piel y mucosas en los pacientes con sospecha o diagnóstico confirmado de COVID-19 puede ser de gran ayuda para la correcta caracterización de esta nueva enfermedad.

RESUMO

Abstract Introduction Multimodal enhanced recovery programs are a new paradigm in perioperative care. Objective To evaluate the certainty of evidence pertaining to the effectiveness and safety of the multimodal perioperative care program in elective colorectal surgery. Data source: A search was conducted in the Medline, EMBASE, and Cochrane databases, up until February 2020. Eligibility criteria Systematic reviews that take into account the perioperative multimodal program in patients with an indication for colorectal surgery were included. The primary outcomes were morbidity and postoperative deaths. The secondary outcome was hospital length of stay. Study quality and synthesis method The reviews were evaluated with AMSTAR-2 and the certainty of the evidence with the GRADE methodology. The findings are presented with measures of frequency, risk estimators, or differences. Results Six systematic reviews of clinical trials with medium and high quality in AMSTAR-2 were included. Morbidity was reduced between 16 and 48%. Studies are inconclusive regarding postoperative mortality. Hospital length of stay was reduced by an average of 2.5 days (p <0.05). The certainty of the body of evidence is very low. Limitations The effect of the program, depending on the combination of elements, is not clear. Conclusions and implications Despite the proven evidence that the program is effective in reducing global postoperative morbidity and hospital stay, the body of evidence is of very low quality. Consequently, results may change with new evidence and further research is required.


Resumen Introducción Los programas multimodales de cuidado perioperatorio son nuevos paradigmas de atención en salud, particularmente en el paciente quirúrgico. Objetivo Evaluar la certeza en la evidencia de la efectividad y seguridad del programa multimodal perioperatorio en cirugía colorrectal electiva. Fuente de datos Se consultaron las bases de datos Medline, EMBASE y Cochrane hasta febrero de 2020. Criterios de elegibilidad Se incluyeron revisiones sistemáticas que consideraron como intervención el programa multimodal perioperatorio en pacientes con indicación de cirugía colorrectal. Los desenlaces primarios fueron morbilidad y mortalidad postoperatoria. El desenlace secundario fue estancia hospitalaria. Evaluación de los estudios y método de síntesis La calidad de las revisiones fue evaluada con AMSTAR-2 y la certeza de la evidencia con la metodología GRADE. Los hallazgos se presentan con medidas de frecuencia, estimadores de riesgo o diferencias. Resultados Se incluyeron seis revisiones sistemáticas de ensayos clínicos de media y alta calidad en AMSTAR-2. La morbilidad se redujo entre el 16 y el 48 %. Para la mortalidad postoperatoria no se reportan diferencias a favor del programa. La estancia hospitalaria se redujo en promedio 2,5 días (p < 0,05). La certeza del cuerpo de la evidencia es muy baja. Limitaciones El efecto del programa en función de combinación de elementos no es claro. Conclusiones e implicaciones A pesar de que la evidencia sugiere que el programa es efectivo en la reducción de morbilidad postoperatoria global y estancia hospitalaria, el cuerpo de la evidencia es de muy baja calidad, por lo que los resultados podrían cambiar con nueva evidencia.

RESUMO

Resumen Introducción: hasta el momento, no se ha demostrado la efectividad de ningún tratamiento para afrontar la emergencia sanitaria por COVID-19. Objetivo: presentar la evidencia disponible respecto a la eficacia y seguridad del uso de cloroquina, hidroxicloroquina y azitromicina en la profilaxis y el manejo de pacientes con COVID-19. Materiales y métodos: se realizó una revisión de la literatura en las bases de datos MEDLINE, Scopus y PubMed sobre publica- ciones que registraran el uso de cloroquina, hidroxicloroquina y azitromicina en pacientes con COVID-19. Resultados: se seleccionaron 12 publicaciones que incluyeron revisiones rápidas de literatura, estudios observacionales y ensayos clínicos. No se encontró información sobre la profilaxis con cloroquina, hidroxicloroquina ni azitromicina para SARS-CoV-2. Los eventos adversos reportados incluyeron emesis, dolor abdominal, náuseas, diarrea, erupción cutánea y picazón. Conclusiones: según la evidencia recopilada el uso de hidroxicloroquina o de cloroquina sola o en combinación con azitromicina en pacientes con COVID-19 no ha mostrado beneficio. Además, cada uno de estos esquemas de tratamiento se asocia con un mayor riesgo de muerte y de episodios de arritmias. En síntesis, la efectividad de estos medicamentos sigue sin estar esclarecida, por lo cual se sugiere evitar su uso en el tratamiento de personas con infección por SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19.


Abstract Introduction: The COVID-19 disease is a health emergency; treatment has not yet been proven. Objective: To present the available evidence of efficacy and safety of the use of hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin in the prophylaxis and management of patients with COVID-19. Methods: A rapid literature review was performed; we consulted Medline, scopus and pubmed databases. Results: Eleven publications were included including rapid literature reviews, observational studies, and clinical trials. No data were found studying prophylaxis with hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin for SARS-CoV-2. Reports of adverse events include episodes of emesis, abdominal pain, nausea, diarrhea, rash, and itching. Conclusions: The evidence collected suggests that the use of hydroxychloroquine and azithromycin in patients with COVID-19, could abnormal electrocardiogram and increased risk of mortality in-hospital. The effectiveness remains unclear.

RESUMO

Resumen Introducción. La quemadura pediátrica es una problemática de salud pública en Latinoamérica, no ajena al quehacer del fisioterapeuta. Sin embargo, la revisión del estado del arte de la intervención fisioterapéutica en niños quemados evidencia escasa producción investigativa. Por eso, existe la necesidad de plantear lineamientos que orienten la intervención en el niño quemado y que rescaten la experiencia de fisioterapeutas dedicados a la atención de estos pacientes. Objetivo. Formular una propuesta de intervención fisioterapéutica en niños quemados a partir de la práctica basada en la experiencia Materiales y métodos. Investigación de tipo cualitativo, fenomenológico y exploratorio, realizada en tres momentos: primero, identificación del estado del arte; segundo, sistematización de la experiencia de un colectivo profesional, y tercero, trabajo observacional de campo en la unidad de quemados de una institución de salud de tercer nivel de atención del país. Además, se emplearon entrevistas semi-estructuradas, etnografías y el software SPSS para la recolección y análisis de resultados. Resultados. Se presenta el estado del arte, las entrevistas realizadas a un colectivo experto y las etnografías, producto de la observación participativa. A partir de ellos, se realiza una propuesta de lineamientos de intervención fisioterapéutica para el niño quemado. Conclusión. Los lineamientos de intervención fisioterapéutica para el niño quemado, desde la memoria viva de los profesionales, aportan al fisioterapeuta herramientas para cuestionar los criterios sobre los cuales se soporta la atención. Así mismo, estimulan a la comunidad científica y académica a producir nuevas investigaciones.


Abstract Introduction: Pediatric burn is a public health problem in Latin America, no stranger to the work of the physiotherapist. However, after reviewing the state of the art on physiotherapy intervention in burnt children, little evidence of research production was found. Therefore, there is a need to establish guidelines to direct intervention in burnt children, which compile the experiences of physiotherapists dedicated to the care of these patients. Objective: To formulate a proposal for physiotherapy intervention in burnt children based on the experience obtained during practice. Materials and Methods: Qualitative, exploratory and phenomenological research held in three stages: first, identification of the state of the art; second, systematization of the experience of a professional group; and third, observational fieldwork at the Burn Unit of a tertiary care health institution in the country. In addition, semi-structured interviews, ethnographies and SPSS software for data collection and analysis results were used. Results: The state of the art, interviews with an expert group and ethnographies, product of collective observation, are presented. Taking these facts into account, guidelines for physiotherapy intervention of burnt children are proposed. Conclusion: Physiotherapy intervention guidelines for burnt children, based on the living memory of professionals, provide to physiotherapists with tools to question the criteria on which care is supported; likewise, they encourage the scientific and academic community to produce new research.
