Resumen

CASTILLO GUZMAN, Antonio  y  AROCHA MARINO, Carmen. La calidad de vida en salud en el período revolucionario. Rev Cubana Salud Pública [online]. 2001, vol.27, n.1, pp.45-49. ISSN 0864-3466.

The qualitative and quantitative development of the Cuban health care system during the revolutionary period (1959-1997) is described in a summarized way by showing some indicators such as infant mortality rate, life expectancy at birth and immune levels, among others. Also reference is made to the results of a number of research works that have been conducted in the quality of life of patients affected by chronic diseases like ophthalmologic ones, hemodialized patients suffering chronic renal failure and children with malignant tumors. It is observed that in spite of the work undertaken to achieve an improvement of the population´s health, there is still a significant gap so a lot of efforts are required to provide an adequate quality of life in health to the Cuban population that due to the aging process and their health development attained had a marked predominance of non-communicable chronic diseases.

Palabras clave : QUALITY OF LIFE; HEALTH STATUS INDICATORS; NATIONAL HEALTH PROGRAMS.
