Abstract

RODRIGUEZ RODRIGUEZ, Teresa et al. Foundations for education in the management of ischemic heart disease and congenital heart disease from a multidimensional perspective. Universidad y Sociedad [online]. 2024, vol.16, n.1, pp. 110-119.  Epub Feb 28, 2024. ISSN 2218-3620.

The present article conducts an analysis of the health determinants associated with certain Cardiovascular Diseases, such as acquired heart diseases and congenital heart diseases, from an integrative perspective. From this standpoint, the aim is to contribute to the education and awareness of the scientific community, with the purpose of enhancing preventive, rehabilitative, and healthcare actions for these patients and their families. Additionally, a call is made to public health policies to raise awareness of their involvement in such actions, employing multidisciplinary approaches and the reformulation of interventions capable of reducing the burden attributable to these diseases and their deleterious consequences. The relevant role of Psychocardiology is emphasized, given its social mandate, inherently humanistic nature, and its position as a meeting point between two sciences - Cardiology and Psychology.

The article focuses on international scientific contributions, as well as the social, environmental, biological, psychological, and cultural variables related to these conditions.

Keywords : Ischemic Heart Disease; Congenital Heart Disease; Comprehensive care; Public Policies; Health determinants; Psychocardiology.
