Tool Kit para el Manejo de Brotes de Botulismo

PORTUGUÉS  INGLÉS

Ya se encuentra disponible para su descarga gratuita el nuevo recurso integral para profesionales de la salud, diseñado para optimizar la respuesta ante emergencias por botulismo alimentario.

 

¿Por qué es vital esta herramienta?

La importancia de este toolkit radica en la velocidad de respuesta:

👉 Reducción de la letalidad: La administración rápida de la antitoxina reduce la letalidad a menos del 10%.

👉 Prevención de nuevos casos: La identificación oportuna del vehículo (alimento contaminado) es crucial para prevenir casos adicionales en familiares o la comunidad.

👉 Diagnóstico diferencial: Ayuda a distinguir el botulismo (paciente lúcido, sin fiebre, con parálisis descendente) de otras patologías, evitando retrasos fatales.

Objetivos del Tool Kit

🔍 Guía Rápida de Detección Clínica

🔬 Protocolo de Diagnóstico por Laboratorio

📈 Algoritmo de Notificación Inmediata

📑 Protocolo de Tratamiento Específico

🩺 Manejo de Complicaciones Respiratorias

🦠 Investigación Epidemiológica

 

Acceso a la Herramienta

Invitamos a todos los equipos de salud, epidemiólogos e investigadores a descargar y familiarizarse con este protocolo.

Puede acceder a la herramienta en la sección "Técnicas de estudio de investigación y medicina clínica" a través del siguiente enlace:

Tool Kit para el Manejo de Brotes de Botulismo

The new comprehensive resource for healthcare professionals is now available for free download, designed to optimise the response to foodborne botulism emergencies.

 

Why is this tool vital?

The importance of this toolkit lies in the speed of response:

👉 Reduction of fatality: Rapid administration of antitoxin reduces fatality to less than 10%.

👉 Prevention of new cases: Timely identification of the vehicle (contaminated food) is crucial to prevent additional cases among relatives or the community.

👉 Differential diagnosis: Helps distinguish botulism (alert patient, no fever, descending paralysis) from other conditions, avoiding fatal delays.
