TAMAYO REUS, Caridad María. Common cold and "therapeutic violence" in children population. MEDISAN [online]. 2015, vol.19, n.2, pp. 229-241. ISSN 1029-3019.

This work is aimed at contributing to the updating of theoretical aspects, as well as of terms related to the clinical and pathogenic characteristics, and the difficulties in the care to children with common cold. Erroneous conceptions exist about this entity, without full recognition of its importance as primary nasopharyngeal infection, related to multiple disorders of the airways and of other systems or apparatuses which may or not be complicated, reason why it has been called "door infection". Keeping in mind that it also generates imperfect iatrogenesis or local or general therapeutic measures which undermine the boy's physical and psychological integrity, it has been defined as "therapeutic violence". Both terms are derived from the experience accumulated in the assistance performance and from the systematic study of this disorder in the children population

Palavras-chave : child; common cold; door infection; therapeutic violence.
