RESUMEN
Fundamentos Las diferencias en salud entre inmigrantes y autóctonos deben ser analizadas desde una óptica de equidad debido a la desigualdad socioeconómica entre ambos. El objetivo es conocer la influencia de determinantes sociales de la salud las poblaciones inmigradas a España y/o las desigualdades en comparación con la población española.

Métodos:

Se realizó una revisión bibliográfica de la literatura científica publicada en el periodo 1998-2012. La búsqueda bibliográfica se realizó en las bases de datos de Medline y MEDES-MEDicina. Se seleccionaron artículos realizados en España en los que participara población inmigrante procedente de Latinoamérica, África,Asia y Europa del Este.

Resultados:

Se seleccionaron 27 artículos. Once de los estudios fueron publicados en el año de 2009. Seis utilizaron encuestas poblacionales de salud de ámbito nacional y otros seis autonómicas. 23 estudios se centraron en población adulta mayor de 15 años. Los indicadores más frecuentemente analizados fueron el estado de salud percibido (n=9) y la salud mental (n=7).

Conclusiones:

La población inmigrante está expuesta a peores condiciones socioeconómicas que la autóctona y parece presentar mayores problemas de salud mental y peor percepción de salud, sobretodo en mujeres y a mayor tiempo de estancia, a pesar de una menor prevalencia de enfermedades crónicas (AU)
