Accessibility in the area of health: A review of children with disabilities in Brazil- Peru-Colombia
Main Article Content
Abstract
The research aims to identify the main problems in terms of access to health services for children with disabilities in Latin America. This is a systematic review that involved detailed individual search strategies for Bireme, Redalyc, Medline and SciELO between May and June 2018. Original articles that were published between January 2013 and July 2018 in Portuguese, English and Spanish were reviewed. Descriptive analysis was categorized out to categorize the studies that were reviewed. A total of 9 articles were identified, all with a cross-cutting descriptive design. From the results obtained, it was evident that the difficulties involved in access to health services for this population are associated with greater vulnerability in terms of demographic and socioeconomic factors. It is necessary to overcome existing barriers through the creation and implementation of public policies that guarantee access to health.
