dc.description.abstract | Congenital anomalies are a group of disorders of variable etiology and
heterogeneous nature, present in 6% of births worldwide. The objective of this
study was to analyze the spatial distribution of congenital anomalies in children
under 1 year old, attended in health units in Ecuador, and their relationship with
residence in areas of mining, oil and agro-industrial exploitation, in the period
2015-2019.
A critical epidemiological study was carried out that allowed the analysis of
extractive contamination and agricultural production, and the presence of
malformations using the critical processes matrix, which is a tool for analyzing
the movement of social determination of health. The research used a
descriptive analysis, modeling and distribution of clusters of care records for
children under 1 year of age in units of the Ministry of Health, during the years
2015 to 2019, and a socio-environmental and geographical analysis of the
critical processes of environmental contamination in the equator.
The results show that the distribution of each group of congenital anomalies
varies between the provinces and cantons of Ecuador and increases in places
with greater extractive exploitation and industrial agricultural production.
Ecuador is a scenario where epidemiological and spatial expressions of the
capitalist model are manifested, which conditions critical socio-epidemiological
and environmental processes. The productive nature of exploitation is due to a
discriminatory and exclusive social order, which results in evident contrasts in
the levels of exposure and the consequent incidence of congenital defects in
the child population. | |
