Ítem Acceso Abierto El parto intercultural y los sistemas de salúd pública del Ecuador: Una revisión sistemática(Universidad Católica de Cuenca, 2022) Medina Gárate, Albania Mercedes; Peralta Cardenas, María Fernanda; 030218101-1Introduction: Intercultural childbirth is a typical indigenous community practice that still keeps its beliefs in women’s care; it is also practiced in families with economic or geographic scope problems that cannot access conventional health systems. Its use implies preservation of the knowledge and respect for ethnic diversity; it can also represent a risk of maternal and newborn morbidity and mortality, especially where ancestral knowledge cannot attend complications. Objective: To describe strategies for integrating intercultural childbirth into public health systems in Ecuador. Method: It was carried out through the PRISMA method to classify thirteen publications from 2018 to 2022. Results: Intercultural practice in the public health systems has often been focused on vertical childbirth, with no consideration of the elements such as worldview, family, and community participation, like the midwives —who have been considered in some cases only as informants—, their knowledge, beliefs, and practices. Conclusion: It is necessary to have a perspective close to the reality of the culture on intercultural childbirth to have an equal dialogue in the different knowledge systems in Ecuador. Keywords: intercultural childbirth, health systems, childbirth, traditional medicine
