Resumen

Introducción: La demanda mundial de plantillas ha aumentado dramáticamente en los últimos años, pero, ¿realmente son efectivas las plantillas en todas las indicaciones en que se prescriben?, ¿todas las plantillas son coste efectivas? Método: Metarevisión basada en una búsqueda bibliográfica exhaustiva de estudios con un nivel 1 de evidencia y un grado A de recomendación. Se buscó en la base de datos electrónicas Medline, Pubmed, Cochrane y Agencia de Evaluación de Tecnologías Sanitarias. Resultados: El uso terapéutico de plantillas no es costo efectivo en una gran parte de los procesos nosológicos en los que se continúan indicando en la actualidad. Las plantillas personalizadas o hechas a medida han demostrado mayor eficacia funcional que las plantillas prefabricadas. Salvo en contadas ocasiones no hay diferencias de rentabilidad entre las plantillas prefabricadas y las personalizadas.
