| Sumario: | Objective: to evaluate the perception of support in reconstituted couples in a Health Care Centre. Methods: descriptive, observational, cross-sectional study carried out from August to December 2014 in the “Dr. José Castro Villagrana” Health Care Center in Mexico City. Non-randomized sample by convenience, in couples in their second marriage or common-law union (in at least one of the members of the couple). The Basic Certificate of Family Identification (Cebif-5) with the items of identification, demographic factors and family apgar was applied, after previous informed consent. The Kruskall-Wallis test, with 0.05 of significance level, and the spss v. 18 program were used. Results: 30 heterosexual couples living in common-law union or remarried were included. The age ranged from 23 to 64 years in men and from 23 to 61 in women. There were five couples (16.7%) with low perception, eight (26.7%) with media perception and 17 couples (56.7%) with high perception. It was only obtained a relationship with statistical significance between the level of perception and the age for both sexes, in which: older showed better perception. Conclusions: more than half of the couples obtained a high level perception, however, the age influenced in the satisfaction level as well as support perception. The couple’s relationship is a challenge to improve as human beings, as well as to prevent difficulties such as divorce. There should be a substantive part of the clinical work in Family Doctors practice addressing these problems. |
