Resumo

Introduction: The Atopic Triad is formed by three very relevant and currently evidenced diseases: Atopic Dermatitis, Allergic Rhinitis and Allergic Asthma. Later, the concept of the “atopic march” emerged, which refers to a sequence of progression of atopic diseases. This concept is an attempt to highlight the relationship between them. In recent decades, there has been a substantial increase in the prevalence of atopic diseases, especially in children, which makes the subject currently relevant for discussion. Objective: To analyze the prevalence of the atopic triad in children aged 0-5 years seen at the Pediatrics clinic of CEMEC. Methods: observational, cross-sectional descriptive study, with data collection from the medical records of patients treated from March to August 2021, using a form. Results: the total sample consisted of 122 patients, with a prevalence of 19.7% (24) records in medical records of patients with any of the three atopic diseases. Among the 24 patients, the highest prevalence was of atopic dermatitis (62.5%), followed by allergic rhinitis (58.3%) and finally asthma (41.6%). Among those who have one of the atopic diseases, 11 (45.8%) have two or three associated diseases. Conclusion: Based on the analysis of the prevalence of atopic diseases in pediatric patients, it is extremely important to diagnose these diseases early and treat them early, avoiding the development of severe forms and the development of other atopies that may be associated; in addition to reducing health care costs that could be a consequence of the development of severe forms and the progression of atopic gait.
