Abstract:
Disparities in maternal morbidity and mortality remain vivid reminders of the role of racism in obstetrics and gynecology. If a serious attempt is to be made to purge medicine of its ongoing role in unequal care, then departments must commit the same intellectual and material resources as they would to the other health challenges in their remit. A division that understands the unique needs and complexities of the specialty, including translating theory into practice, is uniquely positioned to keep health equity as a focus of clinical care, education, research, and community engagement. To achieve reproductive justice, an approach addressing the intersectionality of race, ethnicity and gender identity is critical. In this article, we detailed the ways in which divisions of health equity within departments of obstetrics and gynecology can dismantle impediments to progress and can move our discipline closer to optimal and equitable care for all. We described the unique educational, clinical, research, and innovative community-based activities of these divisions.
摘要:
产妇发病率和死亡率的差异仍然生动地提醒人们种族主义在妇产科中的作用。如果要认真尝试消除药物在不平等护理中的持续作用,然后,各部门必须投入与其他卫生挑战相同的智力和物质资源。了解专业的独特需求和复杂性的部门,包括将理论转化为实践,具有独特的地位,可以将健康公平作为临床护理的重点,教育,研究和社区参与。为了实现生殖正义,解决种族交叉性的方法,种族和性别认同至关重要。在本文中,我们将详细说明妇产科内卫生公平部门如何消除障碍,并使我们的学科更接近为所有人提供最佳和公平的护理。我们将描述独特的教育,临床,研究,以及这些部门的创新社区活动。
