METHODS: Qualitative ethnographic study based on the SRQR guidelines. Fourteen participants took part and were split into two groups: health personnel who work closely with surgeons and patients and family members. All underwent semi-structured interviews which explored themes of personal, cultural, and professional perceptions of female surgeons in their work environment. Additionally, ideas of gender biases were assessed. After transcribing the interviews, patterns, and trends in the data were encoded, followed by the categorization and identification of significant relationships. Data analysis was conducted using ATLAS.ti software version 23.
RESULTS: Three main dimensions emerged and were identified: \'Barriers\', \'Equity\', and \'Recognition\'. A high frequency of barriers (discrimination and stereotypes) has been identified, and the recognition of female surgeons as capable and competent remains insufficient.
CONCLUSIONS: Gender biases that negatively impact female surgeons persist. In the fight against eradicating discrimination, we must promote equal opportunities and enhance recognition of women\'s surgical practice in Latin America and worldwide.
方法:基于SRQR指南的定性人种学研究。14名参与者参加,分为两组:与外科医生,患者和家庭成员密切合作的卫生人员。所有人都进行了半结构化的访谈,探讨了个人主题,文化,以及对女性外科医生工作环境的专业认知。此外,评估了性别偏见的想法。在抄写完采访后,模式,数据的趋势被编码,其次是对重要关系的分类和识别。使用ATLAS进行数据分析。ti软件版本23。
结果:出现并确定了三个主要维度:“障碍”,\'权益\',和\'识别\'。已经发现了高频率的障碍(歧视和陈规定型观念),对女性外科医生的能力和能力的认可仍然不足。
结论:对女性外科医生产生负面影响的性别偏见依然存在。在消除歧视的斗争中,我们必须促进机会平等,提高拉丁美洲和全世界对妇女外科实践的认识。
