“…Se infiere que el acceso al Plan GES tiene un impacto positivo en las personas mayores, asumiendo el costo en salud, producto del aumento de las enfermedades crónicas en dicho grupo etario. En Chile, el número de muertes aumento en 23,8%, entre los años 2009 y 2019, de ellas, 64,5% ocurrieron en personas de 70 años o más [15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23] .…”

“…A nivel nacional, al año 2019, las principales causas de muertes son: cáncer (28,8%), enfermedades cardiovasculares (26,6%) y diabetes y enfermedades renales (7,83%) [15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23] , patologías que forman parte del Plan GES. También, estos resultados se condicen con los resultados de la última Encuesta Nacional de Salud (ENS) 2016-2017 en la que se registra un aumento importante en la prevalencia de hipertensión (27,6%), obesidad (34,4%), diabetes (12,3%), síntomas depresivos (15,8%) 21 entre otras.…”

Social determinants of access to the explicit guarantees health program implemented in ChileBackground: In Chile, an eventual implementation of a plan with universal health coverage is a challenge. The already implemented explicit health guarantees plan (GES) could be a benchmark. For this reason, it is important to obtain information about the results of its implementation. Aim: To identify the social determinants of health that influence the access to GES. Material and Methods: The National Socioeconomic Characterization Survey performed in 2017 was used as a data source. The beneficiaries of 20 diseases covered by GES and inquired in the survey were considered for the present study. Results: People with the higher probability of access to GES plan belong to the lowest income quintiles, are nationals, live in the central-southern metropolitan Santiago, have lower education, have a public health insurance program (FONASA) and are aged mostly over 60 years. The diseases with the highest probability of access to the program are primary arterial hypertension, type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus, acute myocardial infarction, moderate and severe bronchial asthma, breast cancer, colon cancer, and bipolar disorder. Conclusions: The access probability to the GES program is in line with the epidemiological profile of the Chilean population, and with a greater social vulnerability.

Background Hypertension and obesity are emerging as significant non-communicable disease threats that can be addressed through behavioral changes. Objective This research aimed to develop policies to control hypertension and obesity among secondary school teachers. Methods A qualitative research approach using a descriptive study design was employed involving 21 research participants. Data were collected through interviews and observations, and height and weight measurements were taken to determine the body mass index. Five thematic areas were explored: 1) snack consumption, 2) sleep habits, 3) family health history, 4) exercise habits, and 5) health complaints in the last 6 months. Information obtained from participants was assessed for validity, guided by a logical, participant-centered theoretical framework. Thematic analysis was conducted for data analysis. Results This study has revealed a trend among the participants, i.e., 10 study participants were with systolic blood pressure exceeding 139 mmHg and diastolic blood pressure exceeding 90 mmHg. Fifteen participants were classified as obese, while 2 participants were categorized as overweight. Consumption of fried snacks emerged as the most common unhealthy dietary pattern among most of the participants. Unhealthy dietary patterns, such as consumption of fried snacks, and health problems, including hypertension, obesity, and musculoskeletal complaints, contribute to the risk of non-communicable diseases in the school teacher population. Conclusion Adopting preventive measures and a healthy lifestyle are essential to reduce health problems.
