GRAU-MUNOZ, Arantxa; MUNOZ-RODRIGUEZ, David y MARCO-AROCAS, Elisabet. Cultures of health and clinical encounter: perception of the professionals on the dimensions that mediate in the therapeutic encounter. FEM (Ed. impresa) [online]. 2019, vol.22, n.2, pp.65-71. ISSN 2014-9840. https://dx.doi.org/10.33588/fem.222.984.
Introduction:
The clinical encounter has been understood as an encounter between health cultures mediated by dimensions: the patient as a subject of knowledge, the use of other sources of information, the negotiation processes and the implication of cultural aspects. The Explora ‘Language and culture of health' project contemplated carrying out a survey on the four dimensions attributed to the clinical encounter.
Subjects and methods:
The study population consisted of professionals in the field of active health, who develop their professional activity in public or private ownership centers. The sample is composed of 200 professionals registered in Revista de Neurología who accepted to participate in the study, and whose information was later analyzed by the research team through the SPSS v. 23 software.
Results and conclusions:
The results obtained point to the existence of a majority position skeptical with the cultural dispositions of the patients, which is qualified by a positive affirmation in view of the need for horizontality in the clinical encounter.
