Resumen

RODRIGUEZ DE LA ROSA, Graciela; PINO GARCIA, Anais  y  SEOANE PEREZ, Niuvis. Natural and traditional medicine in Camagüey: achievements and deficiencies. AMC [online]. 2015, vol.19, n.3, pp. 297-306. ISSN 1025-0255.

Background: the specialty of natural and traditional medicine has been recently included in the Cuban medical field. Nevertheless, the effectiveness of its methods is in doubt. Objective: to recognize the achievements of natural and traditional medicine and to identify its deficiencies at the end of 2014. Methods: a documental review and interviews to directors of natural and traditional medicine centers in Camagüey were made. Development: natural and traditional medicine in Camagüey has had many achievements in the last ten years but there are still some deficiencies that impede its development. Conclusions: the conduction of scientific-rigor studies that validate the practice of natural and traditional medicine is required. This will contribute to increase the quality of medical attention and allow that this millenarian science is in a privileged position in the Cuban medical arsenal.
