La creciente sofisticaci\u00f3n en el tratamiento de las lesiones y la mejora del rendimiento ha llevado a un escrutinio m\u00e1s riguroso sobre el uso de sustancias y m\u00e9todos que podr\u00edan comprometer la equidad en el deporte. En este contexto, el control del dopaje y la aplicaci\u00f3n de normas antidopaje se presentan como un desaf\u00edo importante para los m\u00e9dicos deportivos.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><strong>El Control del Dopaje en el Deporte<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Hist\u00f3ricamente, los deportistas han enfrentado la tentaci\u00f3n de recurrir al uso de sustancias para mejorar su rendimiento. Esta presi\u00f3n ha llevado a la Agencia Mundial Antidopaje (AMA) a establecer normas estrictas para el control del dopaje, con el fin de preservar la integridad del deporte y proteger la salud de los atletas. Los m\u00e9dicos que trabajan con deportistas de \u00e9lite se enfrentan frecuentemente al dilema de utilizar f\u00e1rmacos prohibidos por la AMA para tratar condiciones m\u00e9dicas.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><strong>Infracciones a las Normas Antidopaje<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Las infracciones a las normas antidopaje est\u00e1n claramente definidas en el Art\u00edculo 2 del C\u00f3digo Mundial Antidopaje. Entre las principales infracciones se incluyen:<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">1. Presencia de una Sustancia Prohibida: Detectar en la muestra de un atleta una sustancia prohibida, sus metabolitos o sus marcadores.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">2. Uso o Intento de Uso de Sustancias Prohibidas: Usar o intentar usar sustancias o m\u00e9todos prohibidos.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">3. Rehusarse a la Toma de Muestras: Negarse o fallar sin justificaci\u00f3n convincente a presentar la muestra cuando se le notifica.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">4. Manipulaci\u00f3n del Control: Manipular o intentar manipular cualquier parte del control antidopaje.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">5. Posesi\u00f3n y Tr\u00e1fico: Poseer o traficar sustancias prohibidas.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Para los m\u00e9dicos deportivos, un \u00e1rea particularmente dif\u00edcil es el uso de f\u00e1rmacos prohibidos por la AMA. Aunque algunos medicamentos son esenciales para el tratamiento de ciertas condiciones m\u00e9dicas, su uso est\u00e1 restringido durante la competencia, lo que plantea un desaf\u00edo \u00e9tico para los m\u00e9dicos.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><strong>Responsabilidades Compartidas: Vigilancia y Participaci\u00f3n<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Los m\u00e9dicos deportivos deben estar al tanto de las sustancias prohibidas y los tratamientos m\u00e9dicos permitidos. Esto incluye:<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">&#8211; Sustancias de Declaraci\u00f3n: Conocer las sustancias prohibidas y los medicamentos utilizados en el tratamiento de condiciones m\u00e9dicas.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">&#8211; Drogas de Abuso: Estar al tanto de sustancias como la marihuana y el alcohol, y su impacto en la competici\u00f3n.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">&#8211; Suplementos Nutricionales: Informar sobre los riesgos de los suplementos contaminados y los precursores prohibidos.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">La lista de sustancias prohibidas es innegociable para los atletas bajo las normas del C\u00f3digo Mundial Antidopaje. Sin embargo, el proceso de Autorizaci\u00f3n de Uso Terap\u00e9utico (AUT-TUE) ofrece una v\u00eda para que los atletas con condiciones m\u00e9dicas espec\u00edficas puedan participar en competiciones mientras utilizan tratamientos prohibidos.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><strong>Autorizaci\u00f3n de Uso Terap\u00e9utico (AUT-TUE)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"\">El AUT-TUE permite a los atletas con condiciones m\u00e9dicas usar sustancias prohibidas bajo ciertas circunstancias. El Grupo Internacional de Expertos en AUT de la WADA proporciona directrices detalladas para el uso de estas sustancias. Algunas de las condiciones comunes que requieren AUT-TUE incluyen:<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">&#8211; Asma: Uso de agonistas beta-2 y glucocorticoides orales.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">&#8211; Trastorno por D\u00e9ficit de Atenci\u00f3n con Hiperactividad (TDAH): Uso de metilfenidato o anfetamina.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">&#8211; Hipogonadismo Hipogonadotr\u00f3pico: Uso de suplementos de testosterona.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">&#8211; Enfermedad Inflamatoria Intestinal Cr\u00f3nica: Uso intermitente de glucocorticoides sist\u00e9micos.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Los glucocorticoides, por ejemplo, est\u00e1n prohibidos en competencia, pero su uso puede ser autorizado bajo ciertas condiciones. Para la aplicaci\u00f3n no sist\u00e9mica, se requiere una notificaci\u00f3n abreviada. En contraste, los preparados t\u00f3picos no requieren AUT-TUE.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><strong>Cannabidiol (CBD) y Suplementos Nutricionales<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"\">El uso de CBD y suplementos nutricionales presenta riesgos adicionales para los atletas. El CBD puede encontrarse en productos derivados de la marihuana o del c\u00e1\u00f1amo, y los niveles de THC pueden variar, lo que puede llevar a resultados positivos en los controles antidopaje. Un estudio de la JAMA revel\u00f3 que muchos productos de CBD conten\u00edan niveles de THC que podr\u00edan afectar el rendimiento de los atletas.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">La suplementaci\u00f3n nutricional tambi\u00e9n puede ser problem\u00e1tica. Los atletas deben estar conscientes de los riesgos asociados con los suplementos, ya que pueden estar contaminados con sustancias prohibidas. Los casos recientes en Australia y Canad\u00e1 destacan la importancia de la educaci\u00f3n y la prevenci\u00f3n en el uso de suplementos.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><strong>Responsabilidad Objetiva<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"\">El principio de responsabilidad objetiva implica que cada atleta es responsable de las sustancias encontradas en su cuerpo, independientemente de si el uso fue intencional o no. Este principio, que ha sido parte del C\u00f3digo Antidopaje desde sus inicios, asegura que los atletas cumplan con las normas antidopaje de manera estricta.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><strong>Relaci\u00f3n M\u00e9dico-Atleta y \u00c9tica<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"\">La relaci\u00f3n entre el m\u00e9dico y el atleta est\u00e1 regida por principios \u00e9ticos que buscan garantizar la salud y el respeto por las normas deportivas. Seg\u00fan el C\u00f3digo M\u00e9dico del Movimiento Ol\u00edmpico, la seguridad del atleta y el respeto por el juego limpio son fundamentales. Los m\u00e9dicos deportivos deben familiarizarse con las normas internacionales y aplicar un deber de cuidado apropiado, manteniendo la integridad del deporte y la salud del atleta.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><strong>Conclusi\u00f3n<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"\">La responsabilidad y \u00e9tica m\u00e9dica en el tratamiento de los deportistas requieren una comprensi\u00f3n profunda de las normas antidopaje y un compromiso con la salud del atleta. Los m\u00e9dicos deportivos deben navegar entre el cumplimiento de las normas y la necesidad de tratamientos m\u00e9dicos, asegurando que la participaci\u00f3n de los atletas en competiciones se mantenga dentro de los l\u00edmites \u00e9ticos y legales establecidos. La educaci\u00f3n continua y la adherencia a las directrices internacionales son esenciales para preservar la equidad en el deporte y proteger la salud de los atletas.<\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"x_x_text-text-section-5\">\n<table class=\"x_x_text-section x_x_section-content\" role=\"presentation\" border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"x_x_section-text-area x_x_section-content-cell x_x_padding-mobile-both\" valign=\"top\">\n<h2><strong>RESPONSIBILITY &amp; MEDICAL ETHICS IN THE TREATMENT OF ATHLETES<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"x_x_image-image-section-below-6\">\n<table class=\"x_x_image-section x_x_below-layout x_x_section-content\" role=\"presentation\" border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"x_x_spacing-above\" height=\"44\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<table role=\"presentation\" border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"x_x_section-image-cell x_x_section-content-cell x_x_section-hoverable-image\" align=\"left\" valign=\"middle\" data-aspect=\"ORIGINAL\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"x_x_section-scaleable-image\" src=\"https:\/\/images.squarespace-cdn.com\/content\/63062828473280577aca96ef\/e384d506-9127-4a18-a85c-a4fee71c3163\/11082020-GGB_0536.jpg?content-type=image%2Fjpeg&amp;format=750w\" alt=\"\" width=\"594\" data-imagetype=\"External\" \/><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"x_x_spacing-below\" height=\"44\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"x_x_text-text-section-7\">\n<table class=\"x_x_text-section x_x_section-content\" role=\"presentation\" border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"x_x_section-text-area x_x_section-content-cell x_x_padding-mobile-both\" valign=\"top\">\n<p class=\"\"><strong>Written by: Dr. Jos\u00e9 Veloso &#8211; President of the Medical Commission.<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"x_x_text-text-section-8\">\n<table class=\"x_x_text-section x_x_section-content\" role=\"presentation\" border=\"0\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"x_x_section-text-area x_x_section-content-cell x_x_padding-mobile-both\" valign=\"top\">\n<p class=\"\">In the sports field, medical responsibility and ethics play a crucial role in ensuring the integrity of competitions and the health of athletes. The growing sophistication in the treatment of injuries and performance enhancement has led to more rigorous scrutiny regarding the use of substances and methods that could compromise fairness in sports. In this context, doping control and the enforcement of anti-doping regulations present a significant challenge for sports physicians.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><strong>Doping Control in Sports<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Historically, athletes have faced the temptation to resort to the use of substances to enhance their performance. This pressure has led the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) to establish strict regulations for doping control, aimed at preserving the integrity of sports and protecting the health of athletes. Physicians working with elite athletes frequently encounter the dilemma of using substances prohibited by WADA to treat medical conditions.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><strong>Violations of Anti-Doping Regulations<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Violations of anti-doping regulations are clearly defined in Article 2 of the World Anti-Doping Code. Among the main violations are:<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">1. Presence of a Prohibited Substance: Detecting a prohibited substance, its metabolites, or its markers in an athlete&#8217;s sample.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">2. Use or Attempted Use of Prohibited Substances: Using or attempting to use prohibited substances or methods.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">3. Refusal to Provide Samples: Refusing or failing without compelling justification to provide a sample when notified.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">4. Manipulation of Doping Control: Manipulating or attempting to manipulate any part of the doping control process.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">5. Possession and Trafficking: Possessing or trafficking prohibited substances.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">For sports physicians, a particularly challenging area is the use of substances prohibited by WADA. Although some medications are essential for treating certain medical conditions, their use is restricted during competition, posing an ethical challenge for physicians.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><strong>Shared Responsibilities: Monitoring and Participation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Sports physicians must be aware of prohibited substances and permitted medical treatments. This includes:<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">&#8211; Declared Substances: Knowing the prohibited substances and medications used in the treatment of medical conditions.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">&#8211; Drugs of Abuse: Being aware of substances such as marijuana and alcohol, and their impact on competition.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">&#8211; Nutritional Supplements: Informing about the risks of contaminated supplements and prohibited precursors.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">The list of prohibited substances is non-negotiable for athletes under the World Anti-Doping Code. However, the Therapeutic Use Exemption (TUE) process provides a pathway for athletes with specific medical conditions to participate in competitions while using prohibited treatments.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><strong>Therapeutic Use Exemption (TUE)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"\">The TUE allows athletes with medical conditions to use prohibited substances under certain circumstances. The WADA International Expert Group on TUE provides detailed guidelines for the use of these substances. Some common conditions requiring a TUE include:<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">&#8211; Asthma: Use of beta-2 agonists and oral glucocorticoids.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">&#8211; Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD): Use of methylphenidate or amphetamine.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">&#8211; Hypogonadotropic Hypogonadism: Use of testosterone supplements.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">&#8211; Chronic Inflammatory Bowel Disease: Intermittent use of systemic glucocorticoids.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">For example, glucocorticoids are prohibited in competition, but their use may be authorized under certain conditions. For non-systemic application, a brief notification is required. In contrast, topical preparations do not require a TUE.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><strong>Cannabidiol (CBD) and Nutritional Supplements<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"\">The use of CBD and nutritional supplements presents additional risks for athletes. CBD can be found in products derived from marijuana or hemp, and THC levels can vary, potentially leading to positive results in doping tests. A study published in JAMA revealed that many CBD products contained THC levels that could affect athletes&#8217; performance. Nutritional supplementation can also be problematic. Athletes must be aware of the risks associated with supplements, as they may be contaminated with prohibited substances. Recent cases in Australia and Canada highlight the importance of education and prevention in supplement use.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><strong>Objective Responsibility<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"\">The principle of objective responsibility implies that each athlete is responsible for the substances found in their body, regardless of whether the use was intentional or not. This principle, which has been part of the Anti-Doping Code since its inception, ensures that athletes comply with anti-doping regulations strictly.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><strong>Physician-Athlete Relationship and Ethics<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"\">The relationship between the physician and the athlete is governed by ethical principles that seek to ensure the health and respect for sports regulations. According to the Olympic Movement Medical Code, the safety of the athlete and respect for fair play are fundamental.
