Interdisciplinary perspective to approach an infectious disease: American Trypanosomiasis or Chagas Disease

Chagas disease, caused by Trypanosoma cruzi and transmitted by a triatomine insect is extremely complicated. When controlling this endemic disease, the disease cannot be considered as an individual and merely biological fact. Among its many components the relationship of individuals to the habitat,...

When controlling this endemic disease, the disease cannot be considered as an individual and merely biological fact. Among its many components the relationship of individuals to the habitat, production modes, cultural conditions, social relationships and organizational forms must be considered.As health professionals we present new approaches that integrate different disciplines and modes of intervention, where “the other” recovers his/her individual being and is not merely called upon to play a role as a patient. Positions that encourage participative processes involving listening to the protagonists themselves (women with Chagas, health teams, community references), recovering their unique visions, communicating what is not said about this silent and hushed up disease, and revealing what Chagas hides are important tools when thinking about work proposals. La enfermedad de Chagas, producida por el Trypanosoma cruzi y transmitida por un insecto triatomino, es de gran complejidad. En el control de esta endemia no puede considerarse la enfermedad como un hecho individual y sólo biológico. Entre sus múltiples componentes debe considerarse la relación de los sujetos con el hábitat, los modos de producción, las condiciones culturales, las relaciones sociales y las formas organizativas.Como profesionales del campo de la salud intentamos nuevos enfoques que integran diferentes miradas disciplinares y modos de intervención distintos, donde “el otro” recupere su ser sujeto y no esté convocado a desempeñar un mero rol de paciente. Posiciones que implican favorecer procesos participativos, escuchar a los propios protagonistas (mujeres con Chagas, equipos de salud, referentes comunitarios) recuperar sus peculiares visiones, poner en palabras lo no dicho sobre esta enfermedad silenciosa y silenciada, y develar lo que el Chagas esconde. Constituye una herramienta importante a la hora de pensar propuestas de trabajo. Escuela de Salud Pública y Ambiente. Fac. Cs.
