Resumo

A urticária é uma condição caracterizada pela presença de urticas, angioedema, ou ambos, que pode ser classificada de acordo com o tempo de duração em aguda, quando persiste por menos de 6 semanas, ou crônica, quando por mais de 6 semanas e afeta significativamente a qualidade de vida. A atualização das recomendações quanto ao seu diagnóstico e tratamento é elaborada por especialistas de todo o mundo, que se reúnem a cada quatro anos em Berlim para revisar todas as novas evidências que justifiquem modificações na diretriz internacional. Este artigo discute as principais recomendações propostas na versão atual da diretriz internacional.

Palavras-chave

Urticária, angioedema, diagnóstico, prática clínica baseada em evidências.

Abstract

Urticaria is a condition characterized by the presence of hives, angioedema, or both. It can be classified according to its duration as acute, when it persists for less than 6 weeks, or chronic, when it persists for more than 6 weeks and greatly affects quality of life. Updated recommendations on diagnosis and management are developed by experts from all over the world who meet every 4 years in Berlin and review all new evidence that supports changes to the international guideline. This paper discusses the main recommendations proposed in the current version of the international guideline.

Keywords

Urticaria, angioedema, diagnosis, evidence-based practice.
