Resumen

Introducción. El conflicto armado en Colombia es con-siderado uno de los más violentos de América Latina. Los niños como población vulnerable son los más afectados, aumentándoles el riesgo de desarrollar problemas mentales como trastorno de ansiedad y estrés postraumático.Objetivos. Determinar la prevalencia de los problemas mentales más frecuentes en la población infantil colombia-na afectada por el conflicto armado. Metodología. Estudio transversal, con datos de la En-cuesta Nacional de Salud Mental 2015. Con niños entre 7 y 11 años, a quienes se les aplicó RQC, PCL, DICS-IV-P (3.0.1). Resultados. Se describió información de 100 niños des-plazados ente 7 y 11 años por conflicto armado siendo una muestra representativa a nivel nacional. Se encontró que el 98,7% de esta población se encuentra escolarizada, y el 17,8% en estado de pobreza. Para enfermedades mentales en los últimos 12 meses, se obtuvo: trastorno de ansiedad 6,5% (IC 95% 2,7–14,7) en población desplazada, respecto 1,8% (IC 95% 1,1–3,1) en no desplazados; puntaje alto para estrés post traumático 13,2% (IC 95% 3,9–36,4) en despla-zados y 6,6% (IC 95% 4,0–10,7) en no desplazados. Conclusiones: La población infantil afectada por con-flicto armado presenta aparentemente mayor riesgo de pre-sentar algunas enfermedades mentales como trastorno de ansiedad y estrés postraumático, evidenciando la situación de vulnerabilidad en la que se encuentran.
