Este estudio aborda la cuestión del acceso a la salud desde el enfoque de la sociologÃa de la salud. No obstante el hecho de que es un tema poco trabajado, la espera del enfermo y sus acompañantes es una realidad universal en los paÃses latinoamericanos y particularmente en México. En esta obra se examinan diferentes dimensiones de la espera en Urgencias en hospitales públicos, pues se trata de una unidad médica especializada en recibir pacientes con traumatismos severos y enfermos graves. Los más necesitados son quienes invariablemente esperan más tiempo y, por ende, tienen más probabilidad de empeorar su estado de salud. Cuando una persona se encuentra entre la vida y la muerte, el tiempo de atención es crucial. De ahà la importancia del tema.
A partir de un trabajo de campo de más de cuatro años, en doce hospitales de la Ciudad de México, se exploran las razones por las cuales la atención médica en Urgencias es a menudo insatisfactoria. Múltiples entrevistas, aunadas a una paciente labor etnográfica, han permitido a su autor -investigador experimentado en el campo de las Ciencias Sociales- descubrir un fenómeno complejo a menudo asociado con tragedias individuales. Porque es un asunto que atañe al bienestar de las personas, en este libro se alumbra los diferentes aspectos del fenómeno de la espera en Urgencias. Este riguroso estudio sugiere también soluciones posibles para mejorar el acceso a la salud de los derechohabientes del sector público de la salud.
