Abstract
Description
La Fibromialgia (FM) es un síndrome de etiología desconocida, caracterizado por dolor crónico y generalizado del aparato músculo—esquelético que puede alterar la calidad de vida de las personas que lo presentan desde lo personal, social, académico y laboral. La FM es considerada el segundo trastorno “reumático” más común, luego de la osteoartritis. Además del dolor, al ser un cuadro sindrómico, los pacientes pueden presentar fatiga y alteraciones en el sueño, que con frecuencia se combinan con síntomas sensoriales, motores, vegetativos, cognitivos y afectivos. En relación a las manifestaciones auditivas, se ha observado una alta prevalencia de síntomas otológicos como hipoacusia, hipersensibilidad al sonido y acúfenos entre otros. En este sentido es importante considerar en la evaluación del síndrome la valoración auditiva, esto permitiría implementar una intervención terapéutica multidisciplinar y personalizada que considere tanto la sintomatología como las necesidades y entorno del paciente.
Fibromyalgia (FM) is a syndrome of unknown etiology, characterized by chronic and generalized pain of the musculoskeletal system that can alter the quality of life of people who present it from a personal, social, academic and work perspective. FM is considered the second most common “rheumatic” disorder, after osteoarthritis. In addition to pain, as it is a syndromic condition, patients may present fatigue and sleep disturbances, which are frequently combined with sensory, motor, vegetative, cognitive and affective symptoms. In relation to auditory manifestations, different authors have observed a high prevalence of otological symptoms such as hearing loss, hypersensitivity to sound and tinnitus, among others. In this sense, it is important to consider hearing assessment in the evaluation of the syndrome, this would allow the implementation of a multidisciplinary and personalized therapeutic intervention that considers both the symptoms and the needs and environment of the patient.
