Diversity, equity, and inclusion in anesthesiology
Abstrak
Disparities in population health are driven by a dynamic set of factors, known as social determinants of health. Although individualsmay not have a direct influence over the upstream social factors (poverty, homelessness, racism) that drive disparities, awareness of the complex social determinants of health at an individual levelmay facilitate efforts to improve health outcomes. In addition, awareness of how health care, as a component of social determinants of health, is associated with health disparities can also serve as a driving force for change. In this manuscript, we provide working definitions and discuss concrete ways to uncover and mitigate factors that contribute to disparities in health care.Webeginat the level of health care systemsbefore focusing on care processes and patient-level factors.
