Resumen
Introducción: La enfermedad de caries ha aumentado su prevalencia en niños a nivel mundial y local, es por ello, que el Ministerio de Salud de Chile ha desarrollado e implementado el Programa Cero, el cual tiene como principal herramienta, la aplicación de una pauta de riesgo cariogénico y hábitos que determinan estrategias de prevención y promoción en salud con el fin de disminuir la prevalencia de caries y las patologías más frecuentes en la población infantil.
Objetivo: Determinar el riesgo cariogénico en niños de 2 y 4 años ingresados al Programa CERO en la Región Metropolitana de Chile, años 2017 al 2020.
Método: Diseño observacional de tipo ecológico en población de niños de 2 y 4 años ingresados al Programa Cero que presentan riesgo cariogénico en la Región Metropolitana. Los datos fueron extraídos del sistema de reportes estadísticos mensuales (REM) del Ministerio de Salud de Chile. Se consideró riesgo cariogénico alto y bajo en los niños según sexo, año de ingreso al Programa CERO y según servicio de salud de la región metropolitana.
Resultados: Se identificó el riesgo cariogénico en niños de 2 y 4 años en los seis servicios de salud de la región metropolitana, en los años 2017, 2018, 2019 y 2020. Existe una tendencia de disminución de los niveles de riesgo cariogénico durante los años 2017 a 2020 en niños de 2 y 4 años ingresados al Programa CERO.
Conclusiones: Los resultados muestran que más de la mitad de los niños de 2 y 4 años presentan riesgo cariogénico alto en la región metropolitana, luego de ser ingresados a Programa Cero durante el periodo de años de 2017 a 2020. En consecuencia, las medidas implementadas han sido una herramienta valiosa para el beneficio de niñas y niños desde 6 meses hasta 6 años de edad a nivel de salud oral.
Introduction: Caries disease has increased its prevalence in children worldwide and locally, which is why the Ministry of Health of Chile has developed and implemented the Zero Program, which has as its main tool the application of a guideline of cariogenic risk and habits that determine prevention and health promotion strategies in order to reduce the prevalence of cavities and the most frequent pathologies in the child population. Objective: Determine the cariogenic risk in children aged 2 and 4 years admitted to the CERO Program in the Metropolitan Region of Chile, years 2017 to 2020. Method: Ecological observational design in a population of children aged 2 and 4 years admitted to the Zero Program who present cariogenic risk in the Metropolitan Region. The data were extracted from the monthly statistical reporting system (REM) of the Chilean Ministry of Health. High and low cariogenic risk was considered in children according to sex, year of entry into the CERO Program and according to the health service of the metropolitan region. Results: The cariogenic risk was identified in children aged 2 and 4 years in the six health services of the metropolitan region, in the years 2017, 2018, 2019 and 2020. There is a trend of decreasing cariogenic risk levels over the years. 2017 to 2020 in children aged 2 and 4 years admitted to the CERO Program. Conclusions: The results show that more than half of the children aged 2 and 4 years present a high cariogenic risk in the metropolitan region, after being admitted to Program Zero during the period from 2017 to 2020. Consequently, the measures implemented They have been a valuable tool for the benefit of girls and boys from 6 months to 6 years of age in terms of oral health.
