Avaliação de atopia em crianças respiradoras bucais atendidas em centro de referência

Abstract: Objective: A mouth breather is someone who uses his/her oral cavity as main airway during breathing. This is a syndrome with several etiologies, but allergic rhinitis plays a key role due to its high prevalence. The aim of this study was to assess the presence of atopy among mouth-breathing patients referred to a tertiary care center in the metropolitan region of Belo Horizonte, Brazil.Methods: Cross-sectional, descriptive study carried out at Hospital das Clínicas of Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais.

“…The data obtained in this study corroborate the ISAAC, proving that 80.6% of adolescents with asthma (Table 1) had allergic rhinitis. Similar results were obtained in a survey conducted in the city of Belo Horizonte, which showed that among 560 children and adolescents with asthma, allergic rhinitis diagnosis was confirmed in 65% Allergic rhinitis is an important etiological factor of mouth breathing 10,19,20 . Papers related to the prevalence of mouth breathing are few in the literature and present percentages ranging around 58-75% 6 .…”

“…Dentre as principais alterações estão deglutição alterada, mastigação ineficiente, fala distorcida, além de postura inadequada dos órgãos fonoarticulatórios e hipotonia muscular [1][2][3] . É fundamental o conhecimento da etiologia da respiração oral, a qual pode ser dividida em duas categorias: obstrutiva, decorrente de algum impedimento mecânico a passagem de ar, como desvio de septo, hiperplasia das tonsilas faríngeas ou palatinas (adenóide e/ou amígdala) 4 ; e não obstrutiva ou viciosa, quando ocorre por flacidez dos órgãos fonoarticulatórios ou por simples hábito 5,6 . Considerando os fatores desencadeantes da respiração oral e vários estudos 3,5,6 que destacam a importância do diagnóstico da mesma, é que surgiu o interesse por esta pesquisa.…”

“…The literature indicates that any factor that leads to an upper airway (UA) obstruction, such as septum deviation, pharyngeal or palatine tonsil hypertrophy (adenoids and/or tonsils) 3 , or even due to sagging on speech organs and simple parafunctional habits, causes nasal breathing to be replaced by mouth breathing 4 .…”
