(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2023-12-07) Delgado Rosero, Jesús Emilio; Restrepo, Luz Adriana; Universidad Santo Tomás
Community-based Public Health Surveillance (VSPC) is a strategy, framed in the Public Health Surveillance System (SIVIGILA), aimed at the identification, analysis and dissemination of knowledge associated with events, risk factors and determinants that can affect the health and quality of life of people, based on information collected, notified or constructed by the population itself organized as a community. Likewise, it serves as a bridge with the institutional framework through the discussion, analysis and construction of solution alternatives, in an exercise of Social and Citizen Participation within the framework of the General System of Social Security in Health2. The main scopes of the VSPC, are reflected in greater community participation in public health events and the interest in appropriating them in health events that take place in their community. This article seeks to recognize the scope and limitations of Community Public Health Surveillance in the municipality of Quibdó-Chocó. from the perspective of the stakeholders involved. It is a comprehensive study that used interactive social research techniques. It was possible to identify that the greatest weaknesses of the Primary Data Generating Units (UPGD) are in their information system, due to the underreporting in the notification of Public Health events in SIVIGILA, for this reason the implementation of Health Surveillance is warranted. Public Community (VSPC), as an alternative for the treatment and timely notification. Keywords: Surveillance, SIVIGILA, Public Health, Community Participation.

Abstract The purpose of this article is to address the problem of maternal perinatal mortality in the municipality of La Macarena - Meta from the perspective of the social determinants of health. The article highlights the impact of poverty, education, nutrition, access to health care, and quality of health care on perinatal health outcomes. The study uses a mixed methods approach, combining qualitative and quantitative data sources to analyze the problem. It also emphasizes the importance of addressing the structural determinants of health, such as the socioeconomic and political context, to improve perinatal health outcomes. Approximately 2 million perinatal deaths occur each year, with more than 98% occurring in developing countries. In developed countries, one third of all fetal and infant deaths and more than 50% of perinatal deaths are stillborn. In the region of the Americas, great disparities are observed in perinatal mortality rates between developed and developing countries, being much higher in South America, Central America, and the Caribbean. Keywords: Access to medical care, health situation analysis, social determinants of health, perinatal mortality, living conditions.
Determinantes de las Barreras de Acceso a Servicios de Salud de Personas con Discapacidad Sensorial en Colombia, Según Resultados de la Encuesta Nacional de Calidad de Vida 2019
(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2023-09-11) Ramos Herrera, Andrea Milena; Benavides Badilla, Irina María; Restrepo Cárdenas, Luz Adriana; Universidad Santo Tomás; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0000091080; https://scholar.google.com/citations?hl=es&user=L4MHIDIAAAAJ; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-2761-0680
Introduction: Access to health care in Colombia by people with sensory disabilities (speech, hearing, and visual) has different determinants. Thus, access -entry- and accessibility -permanence-, are cardinal theoretical inputs. Objective: To analyze the determinants of the barriers to access to health services for people with sensory disabilities in Colombia according to the results of the National Quality of Life Survey (ENCV) of 2019. Methodology. Qualitative research with a critical approach that was mainly used as a research tool was the documentary review, which allowed the analysis of the data generated by the National Quality of Life Survey (ENCV) of 2019, because the frequency and stability of the survey application reached this year, conducted in 93993 households. Results: According to the population with sensory disabilities, the barriers to access to health services are exacerbated by their condition in a health system that does not have the necessary relevance to meet their needs. Specifically, this is related to the socioeconomic conditions of individuals and their families, the administrative and financial characteristics of the health system, the particular situation of healthcare institutions, and the very expectations of care that these subjects have, issues that exacerbate their difficulty in accessing the system. This is an input for the evaluation of this health system in terms of access to it by people with sensory disabilities. This is to put forward proposals tending to gradually solve such problems and expand the research trajectories on the subject, considering that a lack of focus was noticed in both public and private research before the present work. Conclusions: Disability is a complex phenomenon resulting from the interaction between the characteristics of the human body and the particularities of the society in which it lives and develops. Thus, the implementation of improvements in the health system is proposed to meet the needs of the population with disabilities.

(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2023-08-22) Rivas Pérez, Marco Tulio; Hector, Lopez; Universidad Santo Tomás
Low birth weight is considered one of the transcendental factors related to infant mortality. Although the figures for very low birth weight newborns range from 1 to 1.5% of births, their effects are related to neonatal (50 to 70%) and infant (25 to 40%) mortality in the South American region. , in relation to the risk they present 40% more of dying in their neonatal period, 200% more in those less than 1,500 grams at birth. The intention of our study was to establish the prevalence of low birth weight (LBW), as well as the sociodemographic and maternal factors associated with low birth weight in Colombia in 2021. The present study has an analytical observational approach taking information from the statistical bases of DANE live births for the year 2021, with descriptive analysis, contingency tables, chi-square tests and measures of association with OR, binary logistic regression related to the dependent variable and at the same time for bias control. The most relevant results of our article with the irrigation of BPN, the maternal with subsidized regime has a risk 1.1 times that the urban area, being born below 36 weeks presents 23 times more risks than those born at term, under prenatal control 1.5 times risk compared to controlled pregnancies. Protective factors such as being born in a health institution, living in an urban area, having social security or EPS, maternal age over 17 years contribute to optimal birth weight.

Análisis comparativo de la Política pública Sobre la Interrupción Voluntaria del Embarazo en Colombia, Chile, Argentina y Brasil
(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2023-02-01) Zapata Campos, Gloria Inés; Meza Melgarejo, Lorena Del Pilar; Universidad Santo Tomás; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0001638277
This essay presents a comparative analysis of the public policy that has been developed around the Voluntary Interruption of Pregnancy in four Latin American countries: Colombia, Argentina, Brazil, and Chile. The analysis makes it possible to identify the common elements from which the issue of abortion has been related in the región. It is consider, for exapmle, the need to establish solutions to the health problem due to the practice of clandestine and informal abortions, the advance in considerations that promote gender equality by guaranteeing the right to autonomy of women, and the response to the demands made in the international context to advance in the decriminalization and legalization of abortion. Together, all these factors have been treated in a particular way in each country, according to the characteristics of the context, the institutional and social approach from which gender policies and the issue of Sexual Reproductive Health are addressed, in addition to a series of ethical and moral dilemmas, which have been developing in each context, and which have substantially affected the orientation of public policies. In particular, the comparative analysis allows us to recognize that when promoting the development of gender equality through policies associated with the Voluntary Interruption of Pregnancy, the reality and the associated problems are approached from a political approach immersed in the surrounding culture, influenced by a set of diverse meanings that condition and guide the ideas of social and political actors, in the midst of a complex development of positions, beliefs, emotions and behaviors.
Defectos Congénitos en el Departamento del Amazonas Colombiano

Congenital defects (CD) are functional or structural anomalies that are generated before birth. In Colombia, birth defects are among the first five causes of death in children between zero and four years of age. The WHO and the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) invited their member countries to strengthen CD surveillance systems, in order to contribute to taking action and generating public policies aimed at reducing the socioeconomic impact of these anomalies.
VIH-Sida, Inequidades en Salud y COVID-19: Impactos y Desafíos
(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2023-02-02) Mendoza Ramírez, Henry Enmanuel; Leiva Ricardo, Yuly Consuelo; Sellamén-Garzón, Alexander; Universidad Santo Tomás; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0000002001; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0001526127; https://scholar.google.com/citations?hl=es&user=S_qxJJwAAAAJ; https://orcid.org/0000-0003-2848-8282
The objective of this research is to review the various impacts of Covid-19 on HIV-AIDS, identifying focal problems, to finally propose what are the challenges to face and what approaches and measures are most relevant from the proposals found in the academic literature. and scientific. The epidemiological data from Colombia were not encouraging prior to the Covid-19 pandemic. As a developing country, its mortality figures present an increase of almost 50%, between 2015 and 2019. It is important that in terms of public health policies, the focus on direct interventions to the Social Determinants of Health (DSS) to counteract socio-sanitary inequities, without losing sight of the double relationship between economic development and health development, or bilateral relationship that accounts for the loop between negative impacts on health and the socioeconomic status of the PLHIV. Among the impacts on health services for PLHIV, the limitation of access, the decrease in guarantees such as testing, the timely start of ART, the stoppage of sexual and reproductive education programs, which are reflected in the increase in the figures of IPHIV, of health complications, of sexual practices without prevention and the interruption of ART. HIV-related stigma, discrimination, criminalization and inequalities remain stark and persistent in times of Covid-19. All of the above, in turn, affects mental health and the prevalence of psychiatric comorbidities in PLHIV, who have a significantly higher prevalence (four times more) than the general population. The magnitude of the impacts of Covid-19 on HIV-AIDS and, in general, on public health systems, demands coordinated regional and global governance, not disjointed and in dispute. The adoption of the syndemic model proposed by Singer, which contemplates the co-presence and articulation of two or more diseases or epidemic outbreaks simultaneously with social, cultural, political and/or economic factors, would be favorable. The contribution of this proposal opens the door to mixed and multidimensional studies that integrate quantitative epidemiology and qualitative data adapted to specific contexts.
Mujeres Trabajadoras Sexuales (MTS) en Colombia: condiciones laborales y de salud
(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2022-07-05) Garrido Julio, Margarita María; Universidad Santo Tomás; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0000990620
Prostitution defined by the WHO as “any activity in which a person exchanges sexual services for money or any other good” (WHO, 1998) is a common phenomenon but not accepted in some countries of the world. On a daily basis, it is common to find scantily-clad women in public and strategic places offering their bodies in exchange for money; prices that go according to the place where the service is offered. Although prostitution is not a legal activity in Colombia, a good part of the population of men and women (more common in the latter population group) dedicate themselves to it as the only option and outlet to obtain an economic income necessary to live, to maintain the family and in other cases, to maintain a high economic status due to the income that this practice can generate. In most societies, female prostitution has been viewed with distaste and has been relegated to marginal sectors of urban areas, and, associated with its exercise, women who break the standards of fairness, legitimacy and good name established by society, to the point of calling them “women of the bad life” (Bohórquez Farfán, 2014). The above statement confirms without a doubt the degree of vulnerability of these women and that the vast majority of them have a depressing economic situation that subjects them to this exercise and, where only the situation of extreme poverty in which they live and in which they live remains evident neglect by the state. This essay focuses on the idea that prostitution has become a problem for public health, therefore, it is necessary to analyze the conditions under which this practice is carried out, from the labor and health point of view, and the implications that it generates in the different areas of the life person who exercises it and their family. Although it is true, studies have been carried out in some specific areas of the country, where the vulnerability of the people dedicated to it is exposed, but it is essential to divert our gaze with greater insistence in this direction. Keywords: sex work, sexual and reproductive rights, working conditions, health status.
Calidad de vida relacionada con la salud en pacientes con enfermedad de Hansen
(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2022-07-07) Salguedo Olivero, Wilman David; Universidad Santo Tomás; https://scienti.minciencias.gov.co/cvlac/visualizador/generarCurriculoCv.do?cod_rh=0001362835
Health-related quality of life (HRQOL) is a term that has been used in the health area and related to health care, it has gained importance in the last three decades due to the deterioration of communication in the patient relationship where it is sought to make a transition from the disease-centered model to a patient-centered one. With the measurement of HRQOL, the perception of the person or the patient is incorporated in the evaluation of their limitations in the biological, psychological and social areas that have caused the development of some disease or an accident at a given time, and it is also used as a factor for decision-making by the patient to choose whether or not to receive a treatment according to what he considers to be positive or negative in his state of health. Dermatological diseases have been characterized by the great negative impact they cause on the appearance and emotional state of the individual, leading them to require special care and affecting their daily activities. Studies show that patients with Hansen's disease or Leprosy affect the quality of life of the individual who suffers from physical and psychosocial aspects, this impact is due to the complexity of the individual's perception of their physical health, their psychological state, limitation and changes in the behavior of daily life manifested by depression, feelings of revenge, family tension, interpersonal anxiety, sexual inhibition, work limitations and social discomfort, among other aspects.
El no retorno de las personas mayores con enfermedad cardiovascular “Experiencias y vivencias”.
(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2022-05-31) Avila Ladino, Angie Yiseth; Nocua Gutierrez, Ingrid Marcela; Mesa Melgarejo, Lorena del Pilar; Universidad Santo Tomás
Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are considered a public health problem, as they are the leading cause of death worldwide according to the WHO. It can affect older people due to physiological conditions typical of aging, taking into account that the population is currently facing a phenomenon of demographic transition, which means that the older adult population will increase over the years, therefore it is necessary to reorient the approach of these, taking into account the particularities of each one of the people, highlighting the importance of the experiences and experiences that turn out to be a useful tool when establishing the prevention and maintenance of these pathologies. This essay was developed from a qualitative research method known as a meta-study, it arises as a reflection based and sustained on a broad search of scientific literature and its purpose is to describe the in-depth experiences of older people with CVD. What allowed to account for how they experience changes that transform their perception and state of health, from which they do not return, unexpectedly interrupting their lives and also highlights the fundamental role of health professionals, who become the hope of live better.
Mortalidad por dengue en infantes asociada con la desigualdad socioeconómica y demográfica en Colombia
(Universidad Santo Tomás, 2022-03-17) Barroso González, Lindy; Carrillo Díaz, Shirley; Universidad Santo Tomas
Dengue is a viral disease that represents a problem at the public health level, it is endemic in more than 100 countries in the world and according to estimates by the World Health Organization (WHO), approximately half of the world population is is at risk of being infected by this agent, with reports of annual infections between 100 and 400 million (WHO, 2021). The study of the disease considers all the entities involved in its management, including health systems, and populations with their living conditions, which is why today the burden and factors related to dengue are the object of study from various research areas. Social determinants have a determining role in the quality of life, and therefore the health of all people. Colombia is a country of many inequalities, inequity prevails in the different aspects that address life, in particular it is a country with a high percentage of the population with low economic income and with it all the consequences that this connotation brings. As maintained in the hypothesis of this essay, those populations with greater economic backwardness and low education present risks for the development of dengue and are very vulnerable to reporting a high incidence rate. Some authors have indicated that in Latin America and Colombia, mortality from dengue is higher in children, particularly in those aged between 1 and 5 years (Chaparro-Narváez et al., 2016; Lesmes, Casas and Contreras, 2016). , a trend observed in children of the same age in Vietnam, who, due to the risk of dying, were the target of dengue vaccine and drug trials (Anders et al., 2011). In conclusion, it can be said that economic and demographic inequality are determining factors in the development of dengue, and that in the population of infants under 5 years of age they are problems of great influence in terms of the effects of the disease and the consequent mortality that can occur. Public policies should be aimed at improving socioeconomic and demographic indicators, which favor the transmission of dengue. Due to limited resources, prevention measures should be directed primarily to those places with a lower socioeconomic level.

De acuerdo con el Instituto Nacional de Salud (2020), la situación de la mortalidad en fetos en el país no se ha presentado como un tema aislado, ya que este componente es un grave problema que genera afectación a las familias de zonas rurales y de más bajos recursos en Colombia. Según sus cifras en el boletín epidemiológico entre los años 2018 y 2019, se reportó que la mortalidad fue de aproximadamente 15 muertes por 1.000 nacidos vivos. A partir de lo anterior, la evidencia en esta problemática deja como resultado muchos cuestionamientos en temas orientados a la prestación del servicio de la salud pública en las poblaciones vulnerables y apartadas del casco urbano en Colombia. Existen instituciones como el Departamento Administrativo Nacional de Estadísticas (DANE) que solo realiza encuestas que permiten la medición cuantitativa de los componentes socioeconómicos que impactan en las muertes fetales, mas no el análisis de dichos componentes. Es entonces que, para el desarrollo del presente estudio de muertes fetales por componentes socioeconómicos se enfoca en la región de la Orinoquia, la cual se compone por los departamentos de Arauca, Casanare, Meta y Vichada, y se delimitará al periodo comprendido entre los años 2015 y 2020. En torno a ello, se analizan documentos de registro del Departamento Administrativo Nacional de Estadísticas (DANE) y se tienen en cuenta datos característicos de su geografía, sus condiciones de vulnerabilidad, acceso, desarrollo económico y social, salud y educación de cada uno de los departamentos, señalados en artículos y documentos estratégicos que permitan dar respuesta al siguiente interrogante: ¿Cuál es la relación entre las condiciones socioeconómicas y las muertes fetales en la región de la Orinoquia en el periodo 2015-2020? Finalmente, como resultado de este estudio, se podrán orientar las intervenciones en la población con mayor vulnerabilidad, con el propósito de combatir los problemas de salud encontrados basados en componentes socioeconómicos de la región.
