Resumen
LEDON LLANES, Loraine. Association of the categories body, gender and chronic disease from different experience in health. Rev Cubana Salud Pública [online]. 2011, vol.37, n.3, pp.324-337. ISSN 0864-3466.
Chronic diseases are felt as experience with deep impact. This article analyzed the association of the categories body, gender and health-disease on the basis of some dimensions involved in processes of health care given to persons affected by different chronic diseases. The diagnosis of the disease, its multiple manifestations, the chronic condition and some underlying particularities of these processes show, in close relation with meanings and determinants, the complexity of these pieces of experience in health care and its psychosocial sequelae. It is required to maintain equity and participatory perspective in the health processes that support the meanings that the individuals derived from their experience.
