Antecedentes.Los chequeos médicos regulares son vitales para la atención preventiva, pero siguen siendo infrautilizados entre las mujeres vietnamitas de edad madura. Este estudio investiga cómo diversos tipos de recursos de apoyo influyen sobre su participación en chequeos regulares. Métodos. Se levantaron los datos mediante una encuesta de 494 mujeres de entre 40 y 60 años en el norte de Vietnam. Se utilizó una regresión logística para identificar los predictores de la realización de chequeos médicos regulares. Resultados. 50.2% de las participantes reportó someterse a revisiones médicas regulares. La edad y la educación no fueron predictores significativos. Sin embargo, las mujeres que viven en zonas urbanas, las que tienen un horario laboral fijo y las jubiladas obtuvieron una mayor probabilidad de someterse a revisiones médicas regulares que las mujeres rurales y las que trabajan por cuenta propia. El apoyo de familiares, amigas y amigos y recursos basados en políticas y servicios aumentó significativamente la probabilidad de participar en las revisiones (β = 1.593 y 2.110, respectivamente). Conclusión. Las redes de apoyo desempeñan un papel crucial en el fomento de conductas favorables a la salud preventiva. Mejorar las estrategias de comunicación y el acceso a recursos basados en políticas de salud es esencial, especialmente entre mujeres desfavorecidas, para promover el mantenimiento regular de su salud.
