VARGAS-SANCHEZ, Katherin Liseth; GARNICA-PINZON, Magda Liliana e ARIAS-MURCIA, Saidy Eliana. Folk care of chronic diseases among Pijao indigenous people during the Covid-19 pandemic. Index Enferm [online]. 2023, vol.32, n.2, e14286. Epub 14-Nov-2023. ISSN 1699-5988. https://dx.doi.org/10.58807/indexenferm20235799.
Justification:
The Covid-19 pandemic caused an interruption in the services aimed at attending to chronic diseases, resulting in readjustments in the care of patients.
Objective:
To describe the popular care used by the Pijao indigenous people for treating and controlling chronic diseases in the context of the pandemic in Bogotá (Colombia).
Methodology:
Qualitative micro-ethnographic study. Sixteen Pijao indigenous people participated. The data collected through interviews and observation were analyzed thematically. Results, three categories emerged: (1) from the territory of origin to the city: popular care for the treatment of illnesses, (2) living with the illness: signs and symptoms of illnesses, and (3) seeking other resources for care: self-attention and family support.
Conclusion:
the care trajectory of the Pijao with chronic diseases was permeated by the pandemic, turning popular care, characterized by a syncretism of knowledge, into a fundamental part of their care routine.
