Abstract

Objective: To analyze the risk factors and visual-perceptual alterations in patients with depression as reported in the literature in the last 20 years. Methodology: A systematic review of the literature was carried out, in which documents presenting information on patients with a diagnosis of depression and published in the last 20 years were included; therefore, experimental articles were excluded. In order to obtain the information, search equations were constructed and used in the following databases (Scielo, Elseiver, Science, Elibro). Likewise, a search for information was carried out in institutional repositories and through the search strategy. Information related to bibliometric variables (year, language, type of study) and clinical variables (risk factors, visual perceptual alterations, type of depression) was extracted from the documents and subsequently presented in the form of summary tables. Expected results: It was carried out with 12 articles that complied with the checklists, among which: 9 were in Spanish, 3 in English, of which 5 collected information about visual perceptual alterations and 7 articles about risk factors and type of depression. The results showed that there is little information about visual perceptual alterations in patients with depression; The most information collected was in the countries of Spain and Colombia. However, the variables depression and risk factors have more documentation recorded.
