ABSTRACT
Objective. To analyze the prevalence of domestic violence
in adult women during confinement derived from the Covid-
19 pandemic and individual, familiar and communitarian
associated factors.
Materials and methods. A secondary
analysis was carried out the 2020 National Health and
Nutrition Survey on Covid-19, with national representation. A
logistic regression model adjusted for the variables of interest
was performed.
Results. The prevalence was 5.8%. The most
reported acts were shouting, insults or threats (4.3%). Most
of the women who reported some type of violence in the
home had already experienced it before the confinement. Low
levels of well-being (OR= 1.96, 95%CI: 1.28,2.99), and living in
a home where job was lost due to contingency (OR= 1.96,
95%CI: 1.41,2.73) were associated factors.
Conclusions. In
care interventions, it is necessary to take into account factors
that deepen the vulnerability of women, such as pre-existing
violence and loss of employment.
