OBJECTIVE:

The purpose of this discipline is to widely study the principles of the treatment of cleft lip and palate, incluiding the diagnosis, the steps of treatment and the therapeutic procedures.

The objective is also to compare protocols of international centers of excelence; to critically analyze the methodology of evaluating the results; to stimulate and collaborate with the development of science in this field.

 

BACKGROUND:

The development of evidence-based studies which improves treatment of patients with cleft lip and palate is recognized as fundamental for the international community.

The main objective of this discipline is promoting the discussion of strategies and procedures according to the Health World Organization.

 

CONTENTS:

General principles of treatment of cleft lip and palate: multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary approach; the reconstructive plastic surgeries; complemetary procedures; the role of different specialties; complications and sequelaes.
Strategies for improving treatment effectiveness: evidence-based rehabilitation; the identification and dissemination of well-succeded interventions; the organization and quality of the service; decreasing costs and the development of methods for longitudinal follow-ups; the acess to treatment; strategies for improving the acess to high quality treatment of affected individuals; analysis of projects for national and international collaborations in craniofacial anomalies.
