Resumen
MONICA GISELE, Costa Pinheiro; CAMPOS VERDES RODRIGUES, Iellen Dantas; RICHARDSON AUGUSTO, Rosendo da Silva y NUNES DE MIRANDA, Francisco Arnoldo. To Broadening Horizons in the Interface Integrative Practices with the Epistemology of the South. Rev Cubana Enfermer [online]. 2019, vol.35, n.3, e2001. Epub 20-Ene-2021. ISSN 0864-0319.
Introduction:
The epistemology of the south values plurality and dialogue between the different instances of knowledge. In health, it values the various care practices, opening space for the inclusion of integrative and complementary practices.
Objective:
To reflect on the dimension of integrative and complementary practices for nursing care from the perspective of the epistemology of the south.
Method
s: This is a reflective essay about integrative and complementary practices, based on the theoretical reference of the epistemology of the south. Four reflexive categories were structured: unveiling the epistemology of the south, the historical evolution of integrative and complementary practices; the epistemology of the south and the transit between popular knowledge and scientific knowledge in the use of medicinal plants, and the intertwining of integrative and complementary practices with nursing compared to the epistemology of the south.
Conclusions:
The integrative and complementary practices, under the view of the epistemology of the south, are a tool used in the nurse's work process as being capable of extending health care, with the valorization of knowledge and care practices adopted by the users of services.
