GONZALEZ-GARCIA, Olga Lucía; GIRALDO-PINEDA, Álvaro y FORERO-PULIDO, Constanza. Living with sequelae of cerebrovascular disease: experiences and meanings of the people who present these sequelae. Hacia promoc. Salud [online]. 2023, vol.28, n.2, pp.32-45. Epub 12-Mar-2024. ISSN 0121-7577. https://doi.org/10.17151/hpsal.2023.28.2.3.
The interest in carrying out this study is based on the need to understand the experiences of people who have suffered physical sequelae of cerebrovascular disease. This research was carried out in the municipality of Santa Rosa de Cabal, Risaralda, Colombia.
Objective:
To understand the experiences and meanings that people who have suffered a cerebrovascular disease give to the physical sequelae caused by it.
Methodology:
Qualitative study, which is characterized by being holistic, reflective, hermeneutic, with an ethnographic approach and part of the “emic” view. Sixteen people over 30 years of age with physical sequelae of cerebrovascular disease were included, and they were interviewed and kept a field diary.
Results:
For the participants, cerebrovascular disease is an event that does not warn and lasts with the establishment of physical and psychological sequelae, which generate exclusion for themselves and others, leading them to isolation, blaming, and stigmatization, and this confronts them with the need to rejoin and be independent or resign and remain dependent.
Conclusion:
Participants with physical and psychological sequelae live experiences that can be obstacles that accentuate isolation, blame and stigmatization, both from themselves and from other people towards them.
