Abstract

Objective

To describe the use of the TISA (Transcutaneous Implant Skin Anomalies) scale by members of the Colombian Association of Otology (ACON) in the evaluation of patients using bone conduction implants.

Methods

A cross-sectional descriptive observational study was conducted among the members of the Colombian Association of Otology. A voluntary survey was performed, where participants evaluated images of patients with transcutaneous bone conduction implants exhibiting different skin conditions. Additionally, they provided their expert opinions on the scale's face validity.

Results

90 % (36/40) of the Colombian Association of Otology members participated in the survey, with 79.4 % (286/380) of correct answers when compared to the initial assessment made by the otologist who captured the pictures. Otologists unanimously agreed that it is easy to apply in follow-up consultations and 77.7 % believed that the scale covered all possible complications.

Conclusion

The TISA scale is useful to classify skin complications in patients with transcutaneous bone conduction implants. Its application is both easy and quick, facilitating efficient comparisons in follow-ups or between different otologists.

TISA“经皮植入物皮肤异常”量表对骨传导听力植入物相关皮肤并发症的评估。

目的：描述哥伦比亚耳科协会（ACON）成员在评估骨传导种植体患者时使用的TISA（经皮种植体皮肤异常）量表。方法：在哥伦比亚耳科协会的成员中进行了横断面描述性观察研究。进行了一项自愿调查，参与者评估经皮骨传导植入物患者表现出不同皮肤状况的图像。此外，他们还就量表的面部效度提供了自己的专家意见。结果：90%（36/40）的哥伦比亚耳科协会成员参加了调查，与拍摄照片的耳科医生的初步评估相比，有79.4%（286/380）的答案是正确的。耳科医生一致认为该量表易于应用于随访会诊，77.7%的人认为该量表涵盖了所有可能的并发症。结论：应用TISA量表对经皮骨传导植入患者的皮肤并发症进行分类是有效的。它的应用既简单又快速，便于在随访或不同耳科医生之间进行有效的比较。
