ABSTRACT
With the objective to evaluate the utility of the sagital position in the obtention
of the diagnosis of precision, a descriptive, cross-sectional and
prospective study was made in which the inclusion criterion was: patients
with tomographic studies of rinosinusal pathology, being the independent
variable: patients with multicut tomography and, the dependant, the imagenology
diagnosis of precision; the intercurrent variables: age, sex, occupation,
clinical diagnosis, and imagenological diagnosis; from the ethical
point of view, the agreements of Helsinki were applied, statistical analysis
was made in where the qualitative variables were described by means of
absolute frequencies and percentage. In order to analyze the statistical
differences we used ji². For the quantitative variables the values minimum
and maximum as well as the average and the standard deviation appear.
The comparisons were contrasted using the test of t of Student. The results
and discussion such indicate the following conclusions to us: The sagital
position offers greater information to us in 3% of our casuistry, in 3% of our
cases the therapeutic plan changed and, finally, to obtain precision diagnoses,
in the 100% of the cases the sagital position is due to include.
