“…The global costs are estimated to be about USD 7.19 billion/year [ 5 ]. The health insurance of indigenous customers, however, covers only basic care, diagnostics and treatments, which do not include, e.g., pacemaker interventions or even heart transplants in most cases [ 6 , 7 ]. Therefore, CD in indigenous populations leads to even higher fatality rates than in other populations.…”

Diagnosis and Prevalence of Chagas Disease in an Indigenous Population of Colombia

et al. 2022

Chagas disease (CD) is one of the leading neglected tropical diseases. In the Americas, CD is endemic in about 21 countries, but only less than 1% of the patients have access to medical treatment. Indigenous populations are particularly affected because they live in socio-economic and climate conditions that favor CD infections. In this study, diagnostic strategies and regional prevalence of the Chagas disease were assessed. In nine villages of the indigenous tribe Wiwa, 1134 persons were tested with a Chagas-antibody-specific rapid test (RT), two different Chagas-antibody-specific ELISAs and a Chagas-specific real-time polymerase chain reaction. The overall prevalence of CD in the villages was 35.4%, with a variation from 24.9% to 52.8% for the different communities. Rapid tests and ELISAs showed the same results in all cases. The proportion of replication-active infections, defined by positive PCR results, was 8.7%. In conclusion, the assessed indigenous population in Colombia was shown to be severely affected by CD. For a serological diagnosis, one rapid test was shown to be sufficient. Replacements of ELISAs by RT would decrease costs, increase feasibility and would relevantly help detect positive patients, especially if combined with the applied real-time PCR protocol. Real-time PCR can be considered for the detection of acute cases, outbreaks, chronic cases with re-infection/activation, as well as for therapy management and control.

“…Only 0.47% of the health institutions within the General System of Social Security include Indigenous people, and 75% of these only offer first level services (e.g., low-complexity technology such as an X-ray, etc.) [2,3]. Furthermore, the Wiwas belong to a population at risk of extinction [2].…”

The Indigenous tribe called the Wiwa lives retracted in the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, Colombia. Little is known about their health status and whether the health care system in place covers their needs. In 2017 and 2018, a permanent physician was in charge for the Wiwa. Diseases and complaints were registered, ranked, and classified with the ICD-10 coding. Datasets from the Indigenous health care provider Dusakawi, collected from local health points and health brigades travelling sporadically into the fields for short visits, were compared. Furthermore, a list of provided medication was evaluated regarding the recorded needs. The most common complaints found were respiratory, infectious and parasitic, and digestive diseases. The top ten diagnoses collected in the health points and in the health brigade datasets were similar, although with a different ranking. The available medication showed a basic coverage only, with a critical lack of treatment for many severe, chronic, and life-threatening diseases. Most of the detected diseases in the Indigenous population are avoidable by an improvement in health care access, an expansion of the provided medication, and an increase in knowledge, hygiene, and life standards.

“…The study sample was made up of health sector personnel working in Colombian non-profit hospitals (NPHs). These are public, private or mixed organizations that provide medical care in three levels: (1) care by general, technical and auxiliary personnel, with low complexity technology, (2) care by specialized personnel, with medium complexity technology, and (3) care by specialized personnel and subspecialized, with the technology of the highest complexity (Prada-Ríos et al, 2017). Only third level NPHs participated and were made up of regional, university and specialized hospitals.…”

Human Resource Management and Innovative Performance in Non-profit Hospitals: The Mediating Effect of Organizational Culture

et al. 2020

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Literature suggests that human resources of non-profit hospitals (NPHs) present features that could potentially reach any expected organizational performance even when the attention to human resource management (HRM) are often low in nonprofit organizations. Nowadays ambitious organizations strive to obtain a profitable performance that is also innovate and do it through building an organizational culture (OC), while for NPHs a positive culture is given by their human resources traits. However, there is not enough literature to understand how these three variables behave together. This study aims to explain the influence of HRM on IP mediated by OC. The research model was assessed through Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling (PLS-SEM). The results support all the stated hypotheses. Both, HRM and OC are moderately strong predictors of IP, and OC mediates partially and in a complementary way the relationship between HRM on IP. An importance-performance map analysis (IPMA) was performed to expand the PLS-SEM results. The OC indicators show greater importance to explain IP, consequently, they are the most relevant indicators to initiate management actions by NPHs. The influence of HRM on IP represent an opportunity for NPH as it implies an affordable investment in comparison to the cost of technological solutions for enterprises.
