ABSTRACT

INTRODUCCIÓN: La Ley 21.030 permite la objeción de conciencia al personal de salud al interior del pabellón y a las instituciones privadas. Ha sido considerada conflicto de intereses no monetario, al anteponer los valores personales, afectando el cumplimiento del deber profesional. OBJETIVOS: Establecer la prevalencia de funcionarios/as objetores/as en los hospitales de la red pública del país y caracterizarles según edad, género y nacionalidad. MÉTODO: Estudio cuantitativo, analítico y transversal. Se utilizaron medidas de tendencia central y dispersión. Para medir la asociación entre variables sociodemográficas, profesión y causal objetada, se utilizaron las pruebas de χ2, exacta de Fisher y de Kruskal-Wallis. RESULTADOS: En 57 hospitales, se observa una mayor frecuencia de objetores en causal 3. En 443 objetores, la mediana de edad fue de 43 años, el 64,8% mujeres y el 87,4% de nacionalidad chilena. En las zonas centro y sur del país se concentra la mayor proporción de hospitales con más del 50% de objetores. CONCLUSIONES: La dificultad para obtener información impide conocer cabalmente la magnitud de la objeción de conciencia. Resulta preocupante la alta prevalencia de objetores, específicamente en la causal violación. La objeción no puede operar como barrera que vulnere los derechos y la dignidad de las mujeres.


INTRODUCTION: Law 21.030 incorporates conscientious objection for health personnel inside the surgical ward and allows its invocation by private institutions. It has been considered a conflict of interest, not monetary, by putting personal values first, affecting the fulfillment of professional duty. OBJECTIVE: To establish the prevalence of objectors in the countrys public network hospitals and characterize them according to age, gender, and nationality. METHOD: Quantitative, analytical, and cross-sectional study. Central and dispersion trend measures were used. For measuring the association between sociodemographic variables, profession and causal objected, test χ2, Fisher exact and Kruskal-Wallis test were used. RESULTS: In 57 hospitals, a higher frequency of objectors were observed in the third causal. In 443 objectors, the median age was 43 years, 64.8% are women, and 87.4% are Chilean. The central and southern areas of the country have the highest proportion of hospitals, with more than 50% objectors. CONCLUSIONS: The difficulty for obtaining the information prevents fully knowing the magnitude of conscientious objection in Chile. The high prevalence of objectors, specifically in the causal violation is worrying. The conscientious objection cannot operate as a barrier that violates the rights and dignity of women.

ABSTRACT

Objetivo: Describir las características del patrón sangrado uterino de las adolescentes que usan el implante anticonceptivo sudérmico de etonogestrel (IASE) que concurren a un centro especializado en salud sexual y reproductiva de adolescentes en Santiago, Chile, y su asociación con variables biopsicosocial. Método: Estudio de cohorte retrospectiva de las usuarias de IASE. Los datos fueron analizados utilizando la ecuación de estimación generalizada, análisis de sobrevida de Kaplan Meier y test de log-rank. Resultados: La cohorte incluyó a 62 adolescentes. La media de edad fue de 16,2 años. Las participantes recibieron asesoramiento anticonceptivo antes de la inserción del IASE, y fueron seguidas durante tres años. Los patrones de sangrado más frecuentes durante el primer año fue el de amenorrea (40,5%) y el sangrado aceptable (27,1%), mientras que el menos frecuente fue prolongado y/o sangrado frecuente (15,8%). De acuerdo con el análisis de sobrevida, la única variable biopsicosocial asociado con patrón prolongado y/o sangrado frecuente fue condición médica previa. Cinco adolescentes (8%) se retiraron el IASE. Conclusiones: El IASE es una opción anticonceptiva segura y altamente eficaz para las adolescentes, independientemente de la paridad. La consejería es de gran importancia para fomentar la tolerancia y la adhesión al implante.


Objectives: To describe uterine bleeding patterns of adolescents using the long term etonogestrel contraceptive implant (ENG implant) attending a specialized adolescent sexual and reproductive health centre in Santiago, Chile, and test their association with bio-psychosocial variables. Methods: A retrospective cohort study of ENG implant users was conducted and data were analysed using the Generalized Estimating Equation, Kaplan Meier Survival Analysis and Log-Rank Test. Results: The cohort included 62 adolescents with and average age at inclusion of 16.2 years. Participants received contraceptive counselling prior to insertion of an ENG implant, and were followed up for three years. The most frequent bleeding patterns during the first year were amenorrhea (40.5%) and acceptable bleeding (27.1%), whilst the least frequent was prolonged and/or frequent bleeding (15.8%). According to the survival analysis, the only bio-psychosocial variable associated with prolonged and/or frequent bleeding was prior medical condition. Five adolescents (8%) withdrew from the treatment. Conclusions: The ENG implant is a safe and highly effective contraceptive option for adolescents, regardless of parity. Counselling is of great importance to foster tolerance and adherence to the ENG implant.

ABSTRACT

Hasta 85 por ciento de las mujeres en edad fértil presentan síntomas premenstruales. Sólo algunas de ellas cumplen criterios para Síndrome Premenstrual (SPM) y menos aún para Trastorno Disfórico Premenstrual (TDPM). Ambas patologías comienzan en la adolescencia y se asocian a consecuencias negativas que interfieren en el funcionamiento diario. A pesar de eso, pocas adolescentes consultan por estos síntomas y, cuando consultan, muchas veces, no reciben el diagnóstico ni el tratamiento adecuado. En este artículo se hace una revisión de la epidemiología, diagnóstico y tratamiento del SPM y del TDPM en adolescentes. Educación sobre cambios en estilo de vida, alimentación saludable y ejercicio, son las intervenciones más recomendadas en adolescentes. En cambio, en adultos habría mayor evidencia en tratamiento hormonal y con psicotrópicos.


Up to 85 percent of women of child bearing age present premenstrual symptoms. Only some of them meet criteria for Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) and even less for premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD). Both diseases begin in adolescence and are associated with negative consequences that interfere with daily functioning. Despite this, few adolescents consult for these symptoms, and when they consult, they do not get proper diagnosis and treatment. In this article we review the epidemiology, diagnosis and treatment of PMS and PMDD in adolescents. Education on lifestyle changes, healthy nutrition and exercise are the interventions most recommended in adolescents. In contrast, in adults, hormone therapy and psychotropic have greater evidence.

ABSTRACT

Background: Factors such as personal issues, family, sexuality and sexual partner characteristics are strongly associated with contraceptive continuation among single, nulliparous female adolescents. Aim To determine factors associated to contraceptive maintenance among female nulliparous adolescents. Material and methods: A cohort of 2,811 adolescents, who confidentially requested contraception in a sexual and reproductive health university center from 1990 to 2006 was analyzed. Two years after the request, their clinical records were reviewed to determine the time and length of contraception. Using life table analysis, the variables related to continuation or discontinuation of contraception were identified. Results: Factors associated with a longer contraceptive use were a lower age at the moment of initiating the method, a better academic achievement and aspirations, higher schooling of the partner, higher age of the mother, having an adolescent mother, supervision of permissions by people different than parents and not attending to religious services. Variables associated with a higher risk for abandonment were a higher age of the adolescent, greater number of sexual partners, lack of communication with parents, non-catholic religious affiliation, use of oral hormonal contraceptive, greater number of siblings, commenting sexual issues with relatives or friends, having a partner without academic activity or working and to live without parents. Conclusions: Several personal, familial and environmental factors influence contraceptive use continuity among adolescents (RevMéd Chile 2009; 137:1187-92).

ABSTRACT

Background: The predetermined gender roles and the emphasis on reproductive responsibility on women, excluding men, have negative consequences on their sexual reproductive health and satisfactory sexual practices. Aim: To describe and analyze changes in sexual practices and gender differences in adolescents of the lower-middle socioeconomic level, users of public health system who started their sexual activity. Material and methods: We studied 4,971 adolescents of both sexes aged between 12 and 19 years, who consulted in a clinic for adolescents between the years 1990 and 2005. Several variables related to adolescent sexuality were considered. Uni and bivariate analysis were carried out and a model of stratified lineal regression per sex was fixed to explain the following variables: age at which sexual activity is initiated, number of sexual partners, time period between start of dating and the start of sexual activity along time. Results: The average age when men and women start their sexual activity was 15.7 and 15.5years, respectively. Along years and among women but not men, there was a reduction in the age of start of sexual activity and an increase in the number of sexual partners. The mean íapse between start of dating and the start of sexual activity in men and women was 6.2 and 7.5 months, respectively. This figure had an 11.696 and 13.9 percent reduction per year of study in females and males, respectively. Conclusions: There is an increasing expansion of sexual roles in adolescents, but certain patterns of contradictory conservative reasoning are maintained.

ABSTRACT

La información de investigaciones previas sugiere que varios factores familiares están fuertemente asociados al uso continuo de anticonceptivos en mujeres adolescentes, solteras, sexualmente activas. Entre los factores familiares más importantes están: filiación, figura de crianza, calidad de la relación familiar, comunicación familiar en temas sexuales, escolaridad de los padres, control parental. El objetivo del presente estudio fue examinar factores familiares que se asocian al uso consistente de anticonceptivos en adolescentes, solteras sexualmente activas. Se estudió 2021 adolescentes, solteras, sexualmente activas que solicitaron en forma confidencial anticonceptivos en CEMERA, entre los años 1990 a 2001. A todas ellas se les aplicó un cuestionario previamente diseñado, en la primera consulta y que fue completado con entrevistas posteriores. Se revisaron las fichas clínicas de cada una de ellas para conocer el tipo de método anticonceptivo indicado y el tiempo de uso. Se compararon dos grupos: adolescentes que usaron el método indicado por mas de 6 meses, llamadas usuarias continuadoras, y adolescentes que usaron por menos de 6 meses el método, usuarias discontinuadoras. Se seleccionaron 18 variables familiares para comparar ambos grupos. La información recolectada fue ingresada a una base de datos para su análisis. Se realizaron análisis uni y bivariado. El software EPI INFO 6.0 fue utilizado. Los resultados muestran que la filiación, figura de crianza, calidad de la relación familiar, escolaridad de los padres, control parental, tipo de castigo y comunicación familiar no muestran diferencias entre los grupos.
