Desde el 2001 diversos médicos han recibido el Premio Nacional de Medicina por su destacado trabajo en áreas clínicas o de la salud pública, sumado a sus aportes realizados en docencia, administración académica o investigación. El galardón es otorgado cada dos años y en esta versión fue el turno del Dr. Vicente Valdivieso.
En su décima edición se premió al médico internista de la Pontificia Universidad Católica (PUC) y especialista en Gastroenterología de la Universidad de California (UCLA) por los numerosos artículos científicos en los que participó, los cuales se centraron en el estudio de los lípidos, colesterol y secreción biliar.
Daniel Matamala conversó con el recién galardonado sobre este reconocimiento y los 45 años que lleva dedicado a ejercer una profesión que tan golpeada se ha visto por la crisis sanitaria.
Respecto a la realidad actual, Valdivieso lamentó que ha disminuido “considerablemente el contacto personal entre el médico y su paciente por razones obvias de seguridad“.
“Para sustituir de alguna manera esa deficiencia es que ha aparecido, crecido y multiplicado la telemedicina, la cual es un tipo de atención médica que ha llegado para quedarse, a pesar de las deficiencias que puede tener”, detalló.
El especialista cree que esta forma de ejercer la profesión y otras prácticas adoptadas durante la pandemia “van a permanecer vinculadas a nosotros“. Asimismo, recalcó que la dificultad a las que se han enfrentado los servicios y hospitales “ha sido enorme, sobre todo teniendo en cuenta que la pandemia es de carácter universal”.
En cuanto a la evolución y al manejo de la pandemia en Chile, Valdivieso posee dos opiniones principales. La primera hace referencia a los servicios hospitalarios “especialmente de medicina compleja”, donde destacó que la labor ha sido “bastante adecuada, porque con tiempo se contó con un número de camas y respiradores que siempre ha permanecido dentro de los límites necesarios“.
La segunda trata el seguimiento de los pacientes positivos al virus, especialmente al “buscar cuáles son sus contactos y detectar oportunamente a quienes pueden seguir siendo infectantes”.
“Es indudable ahí que la atención primaria tiene un rol muy válido y que creo que ha sido tomado en cuenta. Tal vez con un poco de retraso, pero finalmente es hoy día la base que tenemos nosotros para saber más o menos como van las cosas”, destacó.

Thanks for the tips on credit repair on all of this blog. What I would advice people is to give up the mentality that they can buy now and pay later. As a society we tend to do this for many things. This includes vacations, furniture, and items we want. However, you need to separate your wants from all the needs. While you are working to improve your credit score you have to make some sacrifices. For example you can shop online to save money or you can go to second hand stores instead of expensive department stores for clothing.
