本文讨论了西班牙裔妇女中存在的一些可能影响其怀孕过程和总体健康的特征。在美国的许多西班牙人保留了他们原籍国的习俗和传统。因此，他们对预防性保健措施的使用率低于大多数人口。西班牙裔妇女很少使用乳房检查和帕帕尼科拉氏涂片等筛查试验。由于西班牙裔人口中一些人的家长式作风传统，妇女习惯于被告知该做什么，因此，她们在参与自己的医疗保健方面犹豫不决。医生在治疗西班牙裔孕妇时应注意文化差异和信仰。如果这些差异被理解和尊重，病人反过来也会更好地尊重医生的意见和建议。
This article addresses some of the characteristics present among Hispanic women that may influence their course of pregnancy and their health in general.Many Hispanic people in the United States retain the customs and traditions of their country of origin. As a result, their use of preventive health care measures is lower than the majority of the population. Use of screening tests such as breast examinations and Papanicolaou smears are minimal among Hispanic women.Because of the tradition of paternalism among some in the Hispanic population, women are used to being told what to do, and as a result, they are hesitant to participate in their own health care. Physicians should be aware of the cultural differences and beliefs when treating pregnant Hispanic women. If these differences are understood and respected, the patient, in turn, will better respect the physician's opinion and advice.
