Abstract [es]

Objetivo: La violencia de compañero íntimo (VCI) contra las mujeres es un importante problema de salud pública y de derechos humanos. Los profesionales de atención primaria tienen un papel clave en su detección y abordaje. El objetivo de este estudio es determinar la frecuencia y los factores asociados a la realización de preguntas de detección de VCI en atención primaria, y describir las principales acciones desarrolladas en los casos identificados.

Métodos: Estudio transversal en 15 centros de salud de cuatro comunidades autónomas, con 265 profesionales sanitarios. Recogida de información mediante el cuestionario PREMIS (Physician Readiness to Manage Intimate Partner Violence Survey) autocumplimentado, que incluye variables sobre realización de preguntas para detección, sociodemográficas, nivel de formación/conocimientos en VCI, percepciones y acciones. Se realizó un análisis descriptivo y analítico.

Resultados: El 67,2% de los participantes señalan que preguntan sobre VCI en la consulta, siendo las acciones más frecuentes referir/derivar a otros servicios, consejo individual y entrega de información. Se asociaron a mayor probabilidad de indagar sobre VCI tener ≥21 de horas de formación, nivel formativo avanzado, conocer políticas y programas, y disponer de protocolo y recursos apropiados de referencia. La realización de preguntas aumenta a medida que los/las profesionales se sienten formados en VCI y provistos/as de un protocolo de manejo de casos.

Conclusiones: Dos terceras partes de los/las profesionales sanitarios/as encuestados/as refirieron indagar sobre VCI. Dada la influencia de la formación en VCI y el conocimiento sobre los recursos para su abordaje, resulta imprescindible continuar invirtiendo en la formación en VCI del personal sanitario.

Abstract [en]

OBJECTIVE: Intimate partner violence (IPV) against women is a significant public health and human rights problem. Primary care professionals play a key role in detecting and addressing this issue. The aim of this study is to determine the frequency of IPV and its associated factors in primary care by means of a screening questionnaire and to describe the main actions taken in identified cases.

METHODS: Cross-sectional study in 15 health centres in four autonomous regions of Spain with a total of 265 health professionals. The information was collected through the self-administered PREMIS questionnaire (Physician Readiness to Manage Intimate Partner Violence Survey), which includes variables concerning screening questions, sociodemographic factors, level of training/knowledge about IPV, perceptions and actions. A descriptive and analytical study was conducted.

RESULTS: 67.2% of participants said they ask about IPV during consultations. The most frequent actions were: referring patients to other departments, individual counselling and information delivery. ≥21hours of training, an advanced training level, knowledge of policies and programmes and the implementation of an appropriate protocol and reference resources were all factors that increased the likelihood of investigating IPV. The asking of questions increases in line with professionals' perceived level of training in IPV and the provision of a case management protocol.

CONCLUSIONS: Two thirds of health professional respondents said they inquire about IPV. Given the influence of training in IPV and awareness of the resources to address the issue, it is essential to continue investing in the IPV training of healthcare personnel.
