Ophidian accident as a neglected disease and public health problem
Journal Title: Más Vita - Year 2023, Vol 5, Issue 3
Abstract
Introduction:This article corresponds to research progress; addresses the thematic area environment and sustainable development, from the binding approach of a public health problem, previously considered an occasional and seasonal event until the World Health Organization reclassifies it as a neglected disease. From the scientific point of view, references manage the impact through casuistry and health deficiencies at the unidisciplinary level. However, from a conceptual and contextual point of view, it is a public health problem with magnitude, academic, social, cultural, scientific and technological relevance that transcends all continents Objective:The purpose of the research seeks to correct misinformation about ophidism; raise awareness of neglected diseases and highlight global public health problems; It is justified by the progressive transformation of the landscape, which negatively affects personal and population well-being due to multifactorial causality. Materials and methods: Qualitative approach, hermeneutical design, exploratory, descriptive, field type. Results:Ophidism as a public health problem is increasing, it is analyzed in a unidisciplinary manner, it applies health determinants, but it ignores intersectoral and multidisciplinary strategies, necessary to achieve the millennium goals. Conclusion:Being an unattended disease and a global public health problem, it is not included in public policies due to lack of citizen participation, nor collective memory that, technologically, is not monitored, nor is it reported to the hospital due to lack of ambulance; Being inherent to the globalizing process, it is related to climate change, global warming and anthropic action. The person poisoned by ophidian may or may not find antivenom serum when entering the emergency room
