Diagnostic uncertainty and pathwaysto care for migrant and non-migrant familiesand their children
2018
espanolTras estudiar la percepcion y tratamiento de dolores estomacales de ninos de familias nativas y migrantes en Montreal, indagamos la respuesta a la incertidumbre medica y como afecta los itinerarios terapeuticos. Aunque cada grupo es diverso, las familias nativas tienden a dudar de la veracidad de la queja de los ninos mientras las migrantes ven sus dolores dentro de lo normal. Nos cuestionamos si todas son escuchadas en la clinica y como esto altera los itinerarios terapeuticos. EnglishStemming from a study with families of migrant & non-migrant backgrounds in Montreal on children’s stomach pains, this paper questions how ways of dealing with medical uncertainty has bearing on pathways to care. These pathways are enacted within and beyond the family space as well as in medical settings. While acknowledging that group practices call for nuance, non-migrant children lead a greater quest for legitimacy of their pain while most migrant families place stomach aches in the range of normality.
