Prácticas populares de prevención y tratamiento del accidente ofídico en Petén, Guatemala: estudio fenomenológico
Resumen
Con el propósito de comprender los significados de las prácticas populares de prevención y tratamiento del accidente ofídico en Petén, Guatemala se realizó una investigación cualitativa por el método fenomenológico. Se entrevistaron a profundidad 10 participantes campesinos de las aldeas El Caoba y San Andrés. Se identificaron ocho categorías descriptivas: (1) Matar a la serpiente por prevención (2) El intento de extracción del veneno, (3) La aplicación de torniquete, (4) La ingestión de brebajes, (5) La aplicación de sustancias en la herida, (6) La inyección de suero antiofídico en el campo, (7) Valor y actitud positiva, (8) Prohibición moral de tomar agua. Los hallazgos del presente estudio idiográfico indican que la noción de la venenosidad de las serpientes ocupa un lugar muy importante en el imaginario de la gente del campo y que la persona víctima de accidente ofídico echa mano de varios recursos en su carrera por la supervivencia.
