Resumen

El género es un determinante social que impacta en el ámbito de la salud y genera desigualdades a todos los niveles; repercute en los pacientes y la patología crítica, los profesionales y el desarrollo de la carrera profesional y las sociedades científicas, desde una perspectiva de justicia social. Todas las Sociedades Científicas Internacionales de Medicina Intensiva comprometidas en aportar una perspectiva de género coinciden en la necesidad de un compromiso formal por parte de las instituciones. La Sociedad de Medicina Intensiva y Unidades Coronarias (SEMICYUC) se compromete a velar por la equidad, inclusión y representatividad de sus profesionales y combatir la brecha de género en el ámbito de la Medicina Intensiva.
