ABSTRACT: Objective. This study sought to determine gender differences in the interpretation of tuberculosis (TB) in a group of patients from the city of Medellín. Methodology. This was a qualitative study, with the grounded theory method. Twelve semistructured interviews were applied to patients from both genders who were cured of TB. The sample was selected through convenience and for analysis the information was categorized through the Atlas Ti tool. Results. Regarding the symptoms, the most reported is cough, but men manifest expectoration more frequently. Men overstated the symptoms, while women tend to minimize them. Women report mental impairment and emotional-type manifestations produced by the disease. Men and women expressed ignorance about the disease upon diagnosis. Both manifested fear of infection, work incapacity, loss of employment, rejection by others, and death. Also highlighted is the importance of family support and of the healthcare personnel. Women expressed shame in that others knew of their disease and mentioned greater intolerance with taking the medications. Conclusion. The gender role constructed culturally constitutes the central axis that explains how men and women interpret TB and can be modified by educational and accompaniment processes. Family support plays an important role in the healing process. Although common aspects exist, delving into the gender differences against the interpretation of TB may permit a different approach of the disease and better control of it. |

Determinar las distintas interpretaciones con respecto a la tuberculosis (TB) a partir de las diferencias de género en un grupo de pacientes de la ciudad de Medellín. Metodología. Estudio cualitativo, con el método de la teoría fundamentada. Se aplicaron 12 entrevistas semiestructuradas a pacientes de ambos géneros curados de TB. La muestra se seleccionó por conveniencia y para el análisis se categorizó la información mediante la herramienta Atlas Ti. Resultados. Con relación a los síntomas el más expresado es la tos, pero los hombres manifiestan con más frecuencia la expectoración. Ellos sobredimensionan los síntomas, mientras las mujeres tienden a minimizarlos. Estas, a su vez, refieren deterioro mental y manifestaciones de tipo emocional producidas por la enfermedad. Tanto hombres como mujeres expresaron desconocimiento sobre la enfermedad en el momento del diagnóstico. Ambos manifestaron miedo al contagio, incapacidad laboral, pérdida del empleo, rechazo de los otros y a la muerte. También resaltaron la importancia del apoyo familiar y del personal de salud. Las mujeres expresaron vergüenza de que otros supieran de su enfermedad y mencionaron mayores intolerancias con la ingesta de los medicamentos. Conclusión. El rol de género, construido culturalmente, constituye el eje central que explica la manera como hombres y mujeres interpretan la TB, lo que puede ser modificado por procesos educativos y de acompañamiento. El apoyo familiar juega un papel importante en el proceso de curación. Aunque hay aspectos comunes, la profundización en las diferencias de género frente a la interpretación de la TB, puede permitir un abordaje diferente de la enfermedad y un mejor control de la misma.10application/pdfengUniversidad de Antioquia, Facultad de EnfermeríaMedellín, Colombiahttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/co/https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccesshttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2Gender differences in the interpretation of experiences of patients with tuberculosis in Medellín, ColombiaDiferencias de género en la interpretación de las vivencias de pacientes con tuberculosis.
