Labio-Paladar Hendido: El papel del pediatra en la atención multidisciplinaria.

In this episode, we address the follow-up of children with cleft lip and/or palate (CLP) in primary care. Even if the patient is already part of a multidisciplinary team of specialists, the primary care pediatrician plays a specific role in the child's comprehensive health care. We review key practical points for pediatric care and also discuss the most common mistakes made in pediatric consultations, showing an example of how to organize these vital points in a 30-minute check-up. We send a very special greeting to the Tseinán Foundation and its members, who provide multidisciplinary support and care to people with CLP and their families in San Cristóbal de Las Casas, Chiapas. 👇 If you think this episode adds value to your practice, don't forget to LIKE, SUBSCRIBE, and SHARE our channel. #Pediatrics #CleftLipAndPalate #CLP #MultidisciplinaryCare #PediatricianToPediatrician #ChildHealth #Tseinan #GrowthAndDevelopment #MedicalEducation #MedicalUpdate #PediatricHealth ------------------ 📚 References and sources used in this episode: Lombardo-Aburto, E.
