This study highlights a gap between indigenous patients' understanding of CID and the western biomedical approach. Patients' understanding and treatment behaviours depend on symptoms, familial ties and spirituality. The findings support the need for transparency and culturally appropriate practices in healthcare. Considering these aspects may help to reduce health inequities for these populations.
