Item Desafíos emergentes de la salud publica entorno a los embarazos de alto riesgo en la población inmigrante en Colombia(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2024) Velásquez Lopez, Valentina; Castillo Benitez, Wendy Victoria; Diaz Caycedo, Xymena Andrea; Escobar Delgado, Julián Andrés (Directora)Introduction: High-risk pregnancies are all those pregnancies coexisting with pathologies or external causes capable of triggering a gestational period with risks both for the development of the fetus, as well as for the mother. There are more than one million migrants in Colombia, especially Venezuelans, of whom high levels of women of reproductive age are estimated, resulting in high pregnancy rates and high-risk obstetric pregnancies (HOP). Therefore, the research objective is to describe the emerging challenges of public health regarding high-risk pregnancies in the immigrant population in Colombia. Methodology: A scoping review was carried out by means of a literature search from review sources such as Science Direct, Google Academic, Scielo and PUBMED. Results: We obtained 25 articles from the last 6 years, filtered for duplicates and exclusion criteria, resulting in 8 studies that met the criteria for the research. Conclusions: The main components of the public health system are constituted by previously imposed governmental agencies, where the use of alternatives is feasible after reducing highrisk complications in pregnancy.
