Resumen
TIERZ PUYUELO, Silvia et al. Complications and local skin care after getting a tattoo: a systematic review. Gerokomos [online]. 2021, vol.32, n.4, pp.257-262. Epub 17-Ene-2022. ISSN 1134-928X.
Objectives:
To identify dermatological complications and local care of temporary and permanent tattoos through a systematic review.
Methods:
A systematic review was carried out applying the PRISMA Declaration. The search was carried out in 6 databases (PubMed, Cochrane Library, CUIDEN, CINHAL, DARE and LILACS) and two non-indexed databases (Elsevier Dermatology and Dermatology Online Journal). The search was limited by language (English / Spanish) and by year (last 10 years). Once the database was refined, the quality evaluation was carried out in pairs.
Results.
A total of 583 articles were obtained, of which 86 were removed in duplicate and 379 after review by title and abstract. 118 full-text articles were selected, which, once the quality was evaluated through the criteria proposed by the EQUATOR Network, 30 articles presented a high average quality. Finally, 22 clinical cases (CARE report), 5 observational studies (STROBE report), 2 clinical trials (CONSORT report) and a systematic review (PRISMA report) were included for analysis.
Conclusions:
There is a need to update knowledge oriented to the treatment approach and the identification of complications related to tattoos based on solid evidence. The development of clinical practice guidelines that address the detection and application of appropriate treatments for this health problem, may be the first step in integrating the management of tattoos into the portfolio of services of the Health System, allowing to know the epidemiological dimension and the necessary resources in Primary Care.
