ABSTRACT

Resumen El presente artículo expone el resultado de una evaluación cualitativa sobre las acciones que los servicios públicos de salud desarrollan para la prevención de embarazos subsiguientes en adolescentes, en un estado en el centro-norte de México. El objetivo fue documentar los obstáculos percibidos para prevenir embarazos subsiguientes en madres adolescentes. La información se obtuvo entre 2016-2018, mediante entrevistas individuales en los domicilios de jóvenes usuarias de servicios públicos de salud. El análisis de la información se hizo a partir de la propuesta de Strauss y Corbin para teoría fundamentada. Las experiencias compartidas por las jóvenes madres fueron analizadas y clasificadas en dos categorías, obstáculos asociados a: (1) competencias profesionales, y (2) a imaginarios morales. Se concluye que las limitaciones más importantes tienen que ver con el hecho de que la estrategia de servicios amigables para adolescentes deja de implementarse en aquellas que han sido madres, sin considerar el impacto biológico y psicosocial que tienen los embarazos subsiguientes en la adolescencia y la necesidad de postergar la reproducción hasta la edad adulta.


Abstract This article presents the result of a qualitative evaluation of the actions that the public health services develop for the prevention of subsequent adolescent pregnancies in a state in north-central Mexico. The objective was to document the perceived obstacles to preventing subsequent teenage pregnancies in teenage mothers. The information was obtained in the period 2016-2018, by individual interviews in the homes of young users of public health services. The analysis of the information was based on Strauss and Corbin's proposal for the grounded theory. The experiences shared by the young mothers were analyzed and classified into two categories, obstacles associated with: (1) professional competences, and (2) with moral imagery. It is concluded that the most important limitations are related to the fact that the strategy of adolescent friendly services is no longer implemented in those who have been mothers, without considering the biological and psychosocial impact that subsequent pregnancies have in adolescence and the need to delay reproduction until adulthood.

ABSTRACT

El trasplante es el mejor tratamiento para la insuficiencia renal, de acuerdo con la biomedicina; sin embargo, es una tecnología cara. Este artículo examina las dificultades económicas y sus efectos en personas con trasplante renal, pero sin protección social en salud. Para el estudio se desarrolló una investigación cualitativa en México. Participaron 21 pacientes trasplantados; se aplicaron entrevistas semiestructuradas, y se realizó un análisis de contenido. Los resultados muestran que las personas enfermas enfrentan dificultades económicas, debido a los costes de las terapias renales, particularmente, de las medicinas. Todo ello tiene efectos negativos: las personas con pocos recursos dejan el tratamiento con medicamentos, abandonan el protocolo, no asisten a las consultas médicas y disminuyen los gastos domésticos, incluyendo el de alimentación; además de suponer una merma en los ingresos familiares. En conclusión, el trasplante renal empobrece a las personas enfermas sin protección social en salud; es urgente la implementación de un sistema de protección social para esta población.


Kidney transplant is the optimal treatment for renal disease according to biomedical criteria, but the technology is highly expensive. The aim of this article was to examine the economic hardships experienced by kidney transplant patients and the impact on their lives, specifically when they lack social protection in health. The article reports on a qualitative study conducted in Mexico. Twenty-one kidney transplant patients participated. Semi-structured interviews were performed and submitted to content analysis. Patients experience extreme economic hardship due to the high cost of renal therapies, particularly medicines. Such economic problems adversely affect their condition, since many patients report difficulties in maintaining their immunosuppressant medication, attending medical appointments, and curtailing household expenditures, further aggravated by loss of earnings. In conclusion, kidney transplantation is associated with patients’ impoverishment when they lack social protection in health. A protection system is urgently needed for this group.

ABSTRACT

Las enfermedades crónicas constituyen las primeras causas de morbi-mortalidad e implican costos crecientes para los servicios sanitarios en numerosos países. Sin embargo, poco se conoce la forma como diversos grupos las perciben y enfrentan. Este trabajo compara las perspectivas de dos tipos de profesionales sanitarios y población enferma sobre tales enfermedades y sobre las relaciones existentes entre los actores involucrados. Un estudio cualitativo, multicéntrico, se realizó en tres ciudades de México: Guadalajara, San Luis Potosí y México DF. Participaron sujetos con enfermedades crónicas, médicos y profesionales sanitarios no médicos. La información se obtuvo mediante grupos focales y entrevistas individuales, analizándose mediante análisis del discurso. La perspectiva de los participantes sobre tales enfermedades varía entre la mirada medicalizada de los médicos, frente a la de los sujetos enfermos centrada en los padecimientos y la vida diaria. Los participantes coinciden en la existencia de relaciones desiguales entre los trabajadores de la salud, la familia y las personas enfermas, así como en relaciones más igualitarias entre los enfermos. Se discuten múltiples implicaciones de los resultados.


Chronic diseases are leading causes of morbidity, mortality, and increasing expenditures in numerous countries. However, little is known about how chronic diseases are perceived and managed by social actors. This article aims to compare the perspectives of health professionals and patients towards chronic diseases, besides analyzing the relationship between these two groups. A qualitative, multi-center study was conducted in three Mexican cities: Guadalajara, San Luis Potosí, and Mexico City. Participants included chronically ill individuals, physicians, and other health professionals from primary and secondary health care centers. Data collection used focus groups and interviews. The data were analyzed using discourse analysis. Participants' perceptions varied, from the medicalized view of physicians to that of patients focused on illness and the lifeworld. The participants agreed that there are unequal relationships between health professionals, families, and the chronically ill, but that relationships are more equal among the chronically ill themselves. The article includes by discussing various implications of the findings.
