Operational Group

ABSTRACTObjective: to argue the operative group through experiences and examples in the scientific literature as well as pointing a method for the use of this approach in the practice of health services. Method: this is update paper-based on literature search of relevant material for reflection on the topic that was structured in three sections: a brief history of health education in Brazil, the theoretical assumptions and building an Operational Group Operational Group. Results: Operative Group seems to be intrinsic to the practice of public health professional, but often occurs without the theoretical support, based on experience and personal experiences of the professionals. Most studies in the literature on operative group are for Nursing, and the focus is still the disease, for example, diabetes, hypertension, or prioritizing women, pregnant and postpartum women. This theme suggests a constant reflection, so you really can learn to use the operative group as a new approach to health education. Conclusion: one can see that working group is ready to learn to learn, and then yes, change our concepts and practices for the benefit of the population to which we are responsible to care. Descriptors: health education; family health program; operative groups.RESUMOObjetivo: discutir sobre o grupo operativo por meio de experiências e exemplos na literatura científica, bem como apontar um caminho para o emprego dessa abordagem na prática dos serviços de saúde. Método: artigo de atualização baseado na busca bibliográfica de material pertinente à reflexão sobre o tema que foi estruturado em três sessões: breve histórico da educação em saúde no Brasil, pressupostos teóricos do Grupo Operativo e construindo um Grupo Operativo. Resultados: o Grupo Operativo parece ser inerente à prática do profissional da saúde pública, mas muitas vezes ocorre, sem referencial teórico, baseado em experiências e vivências pessoais dos profissionais. A maioria dos estudos encontrados na literatura sobre grupo operativo é da área da Enfermagem, sendo que o foco ainda é a doença, como o diabetes, a hipertensão, ou priorizando mulheres, gestantes e puérperas. Esse tema sugere uma reflexão constante, para que seja realmente possível aprender a utilizar o grupo operativo como uma nova abordagem de educação na saúde. Conclusão: pode-se concluir que trabalhar em grupo é estar pronto a aprender a aprender, e aí sim, mudarmos nossos conceitos e práticas em benefício da população à qual nos responsabilizamos a cuidar. Descritores: educação em saúde; programa saúde da família; grupo operativo.RESUMENObjetivo: Discutir el grupo operativo a través de experiencias y ejemplos en la literatura científica, así como señalar un camino para el uso de este enfoque en la práctica de los servicios de salud.

Education In Brazil

The early 2000s have witnessed significant changes in medical education in Brazil, especially because of the creation of the More Doctors (Mais Médicos) program in 2013 and the publication of the resolution that establishes the National Curricular Guidelines for Medicine undergraduate courses in 2014. The latter focuses on a human, critical and socially responsible education, which comprehends the development of the proficiency in a foreign language, preferably a lingua franca. The objective of this paper is to map the inclusion of foreign languages, particularly English, in Political Pedagogical Projects (PPPs) from public medical schools between the years 2013-2019. Online bibliographical research was carried out and data were collected from the e-MEC system and the PPPs. Descriptive statistics have shown that 65.1% of Medicine undergraduate courses (n=28) include the proficiency of a foreign language in their PPPs, being that language English in 35.7% and any other language in 64.3%; 34.9% of the institutions do not incorporate any foreign language at all. Although the majority of medical schools seem to be conforming with the National Curricular Guidelines, there might be still a gap between targeted English language practices and their association to health education and the promotion of healthcare actions.

The theoretical production of Paulo Freire value the popular knowledge and the exchange of knowledge in establishing a relationship of trust between health professionals, patients generally to pregnant / lactating women and family for the actions of health promotion. We can observe the presence of Freire's ideas, most important popular educator from Brazil, fairly present in health education, specifically in humanized care, which is extremely important for the activity of nurses and educators. While nurses / educators, we must think about the social context in which the patient lives, their limitations, their abilities, difficulties and facilities. It is very important know the reality of patients and family so we can provide nursing care and health education properly, thus establishing effective education conducts both in their treatment in health facilities as the continuity of their treatment at home .

BACKGROUND YouTube consist of a video publishing tool available in cyberspace with unrestricted, decentralized and interactive access. The YouTube plataform offers thousands of videos to acquire knowledge and virtual interaction between people. It is known that sharing videos is a resource that can influence patient behavior. Studies show the importance of YouTube as a source of useful information about some diseases, including Diabetes Mellitus (DM). However, no study has evaluated the use of YouTube as a source of information on diabulimia, a term used to describe the intentional omission of insulin in individuals with DM type 1 as a strategy for weight loss. OBJECTIVE In this study, our aim was to research the source and audience of videos on YouTube Brazil regarding diabulimia. METHODS The YouTube site was searched on March 18, 2017, for two associated keyword terms "Diabulimia and Diabetes". Videos not recorded in Brazilian Portuguese language and those not related to the focus were excluded. Were included the videos associated with the terms and available on YouTube. Video links were recorded and analyzed independently by E.S. and G.K.C.C. Were recorded the following criteria for all videos: upload date, number of views, duration, likes, dislikes, and comments. The source of the videos was categorized into three groups: patients, health professionals and others sources. RESULTS The search resulted in a total of 427 videos, of which 417 (97.66%) were excluded (332 in English, 83 in Spanish, 1 in Danish, and 1 in Portuguese from Portugal). Then, 10 (2.34%) videos were pre-selected and analyzed. This videos were uploaded to YouTube between 2007 and 2016, and showed the following metrics: 10.303 views; 707 likes; 11 dislikes, and 115 comments. The total run time of the videos was 5 minutes and 22 seconds. The source of the videos revealed the following classification: professionals (30%, doctors), patients (20%) and others sources (50%, including advertisement, TV programm, etc.). Only two Brazilian videos related diabulimia with DM. CONCLUSIONS This research showed that YouTube in Brazil is little used, both in the availability of videos and in the search for information that associates diabulimia with DM. This finding admits the YouTube's potential as a tool for use in health education about this theme. There were contributions from health professionals in the process of transmitting videos on YouTube Brazil, but the videos of advertisements and the videos of reports were predominat. This result is worrying because it configures serious risks of transmission with inaccurate or misleading information about DM and diabulimia on the Internet. Thus, we emphasize the need to produce videos about diabulimia for use in diabetes online health education in Brazil.

This paper is a review of the development of health education in Brazil (identified as “hygiene” in early times, it has evolved to “public health education”). The field has passed through infancy and adolescence facing all kinds of problems, and is entering adulthood with health education leadership now in the hands of an increasing number of specialists trained in the country. The authors suggest that to hasten progress, more attention should be given to integration of health education to health programs, to stimulation of research, to preparation of health personnel, and to administrative support of health education services.
