El artículo analiza las representaciones de los médicos en la cultura visual decimonónica en España y en Francia. El análisis de las imágenes, que estaban en gran parte fuera del control de los profesionales, refleja bien las grandes transformaciones en la profesión y en la ciencia médica (prestamos más atención a la primera vertiente) y también las grandes tensiones internas en la profesión durante aquella época: el afán de situarse como individuos y como colectivo entre as élites sociales, la oscilación entre el énfasis en el heroísmo desinteresado y la voluntad y necesidad de reclamar honorarios dignos de un caballero, las pugnas en torno al lugar que debían ocupar las mujeres en e campo de la salud. Desde una perspectiva comparada y transnacional, el artículo moviliza la cultura visual para entender el lugar de clase social y de género en la transformación de la medicina no tanto como ciencia, sino como profesión.

Introduction: In order to prevent and treat the syndemic of lifestyle diseases and other non-communicable diseases, following healthy lifestyle and improving the overall quality of life is of utmost important. Healthy lifestyle behaviours are positively and independently associated with academic achievement.[1] Hence this study is trying to estimate the quality of life of medical students at Government Medical College (Patiala), whose lifestyle will be percolated in turn into their family and field of practice. Aims and objectives: To evaluate the Quality of Life (QOL) and find association between QOL and academic achievements. Material and methods: A 26 item WHO QOL- BREF scale was used to collect data from 326 MBBS students from Government Medical College and Rajindra Hospital, Patiala. Results: Out of 326 MBBS students, 54% were female 46% were male. Majority of the students were hailing from urban area (93%) as compared to rural area(7%). The average scores in each domain of WHOQOL – BREF were 63.71 in Physical health domain, 61.51 in psychological domain, 57.91 in social relationship domain and 53.7 in environment domain. There was no significant association between academic scores and different domain scores of WHOQOL-BREF scale. Conclusion: Majority of the students perceived their quality of life to be good to very good (66%). 48% of students felt their health to be satisfied to very satisfied. The average score of WHOQOL BREF in physical and psychological domains were above 60 (63.71, 61.51 respectively), whereas it was less than 60 in social and environmental domain (57.91 and 53.7 respectively). There was no significant association between academic scores and different domain scores of WHOQOL-BREF scale. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

La praxis discursiva del profesor universitario y médico constituye un elemento clave a ser explorado desde la interacción y la intersubjetividad de dos subjetividades, la del médico y la del docente, en un mismo sujeto. El propósito fue generar una aproximación teórica para comprender la interacción en las intersubjetividades del médico docente, desde su praxis discursiva. Las teorías que sirvieron como marco de referencia fueron la teoría social de Alfred Schütz y la teoría comunicativa de Jürgen Habermas.El método del presente estudio correspondió a la Teoría Fundamentada (Grounded Theory), propuesta por Glaser y Strauss (1967). Las voces y haceres de los participantes, estuvieron conformadas por: 03 mujeres y 02 hombres en edades entre 25 y 65 años de edad, con diferentes especialidades. Los hallazgos interpretan al médico docente como una subjetividad interactuando en dos subjetividades que le caracterizan e identifican en un solo SER, manifestadas en el quehacer educativo.

We are at a crossroads in our history as physicians: between past and future, between technology and anthropology what will prevail in defining the functions of treatment? Far from romantic idealizations of the past and utopian future scenarios every practitioner must ask: we who treat, who are we and who do we want to be? [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The use of imagem strategies in medical socieal networks is increasingly widespread, meeting the ethical limit established by the CEM. Knowing this, the present study sought to understand the problem of patient exposure in medical social networks. For this, a literature review was carried out from the Scientific Electronic Library Online (Scielo), Pubmed, UpToDate, LILACS databases, articles in English, Spanish and Portuguese published from 2018 onwards were included. Thus, a tendency was noticed in some cities to create laws to regulate this exposure, given that the use of images has become routine in medical advertising, as a way to demonstrate results. However, this practice is greatly accompanied by ethical failures as recommended by the CFM. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Este artículo trata sobre el uso del término médica, con referencia a profesionales del género femenino que ejercen dicha actividad. Con base en una muestra de uso compilada a través de cuentas de Twitter (ahora X), operadas por profesionales venezolanas de la medicina, confrontada con algunos datos provenientes de páginas web, se analizan casos de autorreferencia y exorreferencia, a fin de mostrar la relación entre el uso del femenino (médica) o la preferencia por la opción del masculino genérico (médico) para aludir a las egresadas de Medicina. Se realizó además la consulta del binomio médico, ca a través del Nuevo tesoro lexicográfico de la lengua española (NTLLE) de la RAE, con el propósito de verificar la evolución lexicográfica del lema, desde la primera edición del Diccionario de la lengua española hasta el presente. A pesar de la temprana incorporación del femenino médica al diccionario (1899) y de los progresos de otros lemas similares (v.g., ingeniera, abogada), los resultados muestran la resistencia de las propias mujeres a autorreferirse o a que se les nombre como médicas. La conclusión más relevante indica que tal preferencia excede la posibilidad de una explicación lingüística y apunta más bien a causas relacionadas con el sexismo discursivo, el prestigio social de la profesión en masculino y su valoración pública para el marketing profesional.

This study investigates the relationship between the second and fourth finger ratio (2D:4D), physicians' propensity to choose an internal or surgical branch, and sex differences. On a voluntary basis, 177 physicians working in Elazig, 122 men and 55 women were enrolled in the study. Their hands were measured for 2D and 4D lengths, and the 2D:4D ratio was computed. In female doctors, the left hand's 2D:4D ratio is 1.01, compared to the right hand's 1.00. Male doctors' right 2D:4D ratio is 0.99, while their left 2D:4D ratio is 1.00. Male physicians' 2D:4D ratios were different from those of men in the general population, whereas female physicians' 2D:4D ratios were comparable to those of women in the general population. As a result, this study was the first to examine the relationship between the ratio of the second and fourth fingers (2D:4D), physicians' tendency to choose an internal medicine or surgical branch, and sex differences. While the 2D:4D ratio was higher than 0.98 in all physicians, it was low in women who disliked their profession and branch. Since there aren't many studies on this subject, data from in-depth studies that will be conducted in the future will help physicians who choose internal medicine and surgery make more informed decisions.

El sistema médico de Ecuador no cuenta al momento con un sistema integral de información al que el personal de salud pueda acceder para visualizar la historia clínica actualizada de los pacientes. En ese sentido, se llevó a cabo el estudio de caso del SIIME (Sistema Información Integral Médico Ecuatoriano) con el fin de determinar el alcance que tiene un proceso de automatización en el sector de la salud. Aunque esta propuesta no es nueva, aporta importante información para su análisis, pues permite identificar las ventajas que las TIC brindan dentro de la gestión empresarial. Para alcanzar el objetivo planteado, se aplicó una metodología cualitativa descriptiva que ayudó a analizar datos técnicos de los sistemas de gestión de información y su incidencia en la estructura organizacional médica. Como resultado se obtuvo la descripción de un proceso de ingeniería que desarrolló el Sistema Integral de Información Integral Médico Ecuatoriano que integró a la academia, la ciencia y la sociedad, en aras de buscar soluciones que brinden una mejoría en el registro del diagnóstico de pacientes, la prevención de enfermedades y mayor eficiencia administrativa.

Introduction: Informed consent respects the autonomy and will of the patient, and it is the duty of the physician to guide this process.

The training of medical residents in Mexico has been the subject of multiple studies that explore educational and learning environments and their sociodemographic characteristics, but the experiential reality of this training is not explored. Analyze through the Social Representations the discourses in relation to the medical specialty in Mexico, through medical residents in training. Qualitative study, based on a semi-structured interview based on 6 analytical categories: It was applied to 70 resident doctors from different medical specialties, the speeches were analyzed with Atlas Ti V7. Common sense in relation to being a resident doctor is referred to as being a slave and captive of a hospital, with job insecurity, unequal treatment, as well as physical and verbal violence are part of this training, in addition to inadequate areas for rest and food consumption, where the future is marked as uncertain. The predominant common sense of a group in formation transits between domination, precariousness, flexibility and labor slavery... 'this is how character is forged here' ...forming part of a hidden curriculum and a habitus of institutionalized and institutionalizing violence of the professional Of medicine.

José Antonio Price fue un pionero de la medicina panameña asentado en la provincia de Bocas del Toro. Su graduación como médico cirujano en el año 1913, lo convierte en el primer medico afrodescendiente del que se tenga registro dentro del período histórico inaugurado por la república. Price impulsó, decididamente, el desarrollo de la medicina privada en el Caribe panameño, contribuyendo también a la nacionalización del sector público de la salud adelantado desde el año 1924. Fue también un prominente político liberal, electo en múltiples ocasiones presidente del Consejo Municipal, donde sirvió como presidente.

Dentro de las políticas farmacéuticas, el Estado se ha interesado por la receta médica como documento legal de prescripción y de dispensación de medicamentos y productos sanitarios, contribuyendo a la mejora en la seguridad del paciente. Con el objetivo de medir la cumplimentación de las recetas que llegan a la farmacia comunitaria se realizó un estudio observacional transversal, durante dos meses de 2019, revisando todas las recetas en soporte papel presentadas para su dispensación en cinco farmacias. En ese intervalo se recibieron un total de 33.463 recetas, 30.085 (89,90 %) eran electrónicas y 3.378 (10,10 %) en papel. De estas, 841 (25 %) eran del Sistema Nacional de Salud (SNS), 931 (27 %) de MUFACE, 362 (11 %) de ISFAS, 28 (1 %) de MUGEJU, 201 (6 %) de otras mutuas y 1.015 (30 %) de asistencia sanitaria privada. Cuando se analizó el número y porcentaje de recetas en papel que podían ser dispensadas legalmente, se observó que sólo 130 (65 %) recetas de otras mutuas, 30 (4 %) recetas del SNS y 34 (3 %) recetas privadas estaban correctamente cumplimentadas. Por tanto, sólo 194 de las 3.378 recetas en papel analizadas (6 %) que se han recibido durante dos meses en las cinco farmacias podían ser dispensadas de acuerdo con la ley actual. Cuando las recetas no están correctamente cumplimentadas, con los datos básicos obligatorios, indispensables para la validez de la receta médica, la seguridad del paciente puede verse comprometida y los profesionales sanitarios que prescriben y los que dispensan los medicamentos se exponen a sanciones.

La formación de profesionales de la Sexología en Venezuela se efectúa a través de los programas de postgrado de Orientación en Sexología y Sexología Médica, distinguiéndose entonces dos clases de sexólogos en nuestro medio: el Orientador en Sexología y el Médico Sexólogo. No obstante, se percibe que los primeros han experimentado una especie de infravaloración, segregación y relegación a un segundo plano por parte de los primeros, quienes han venido adjudicándose una presunta exclusividad en la denominación de Sexólogos y negando esta condición a los Orientadores en Sexología, allende ser estos psicólogos, orientadores o, incluso, médicos. Por ello, la presente investigación aborda, histórica y analíticamente, la evolución de los estudios sexológicos de postgrado a escala nacional, como punto de partida para la reivindicación del Sexólogo como profesional de la ciencia de la sexualidad, el sexo y la función sexual, más allá de su profesión de origen y el postgrado sexológico del cual fuere egresado.

The health policy of Primo de Rivera elaborated a regulatory legal body to protect the needy classes that attended to their needs; the increase in health activity led to the creation of a large number of care institutions as well as professional health professionals involved in its development. Objectives: the research aims to analyze the practical application of the municipal Health and Welfare Regulations of the city of 1928 and, on the other hand, its impact on the social life of the underprivileged class. Method: a historical research based on the literature review was carried out. Documentary sources: documentary catalogs of libraries and documentary archives, electronic databases, catalogs of magazines specializing in history and other online sources. Descriptors used: midwife, practitioner, doctor, pharmacist, census of the poor. Results: documents from studies based on primary sources were included in the analysis and the results are presented in 4 sections: The Municipal Regulation of 1928, Pharmacists and medicines for poor patients, Doctors and practitioners and Midwives, midwives and childbirth teachers. Conclusion: the Regulation is applied long before its publication and health care is constantly exercised by all the professionals that comprise it; the number of practitioners is equal to that of doctors in this period; the City Council is responsible for paying pharmaceuticals for poor patients to pharmacists and is distributed by quarters; With regard to doctors, and since 1924, sufficient places have been created for the demand of the poor, which will increase, as well as possible substitutes; the creation of the dental clinic for the poor in the Santo Hospital in 1930 is included; in 1928 and 1929 there are 4 matrons for the four districts of the city, following the legislation; In 1930 the municipal midwives received an annual salary increase from 720 to 900 pesetas from the town council.

Introducción: la falta de adherencia implica peor control de la diabetes y aumento del número de complicaciones, lo que a menudo se traduce en un mayor gasto sanitario. Las hipoglucemias, en ocasiones inadvertidas, son una de las principales consecuencias de la no adherencia y su prevención pasa por intervenciones multidisciplinares que ayuden a la mejora de la adherencia. Objetivos: medir la adherencia a hipoglucemiantes, detectar y cuantificar hipoglucemias inadvertidas y recurrentes, conocer la percepción de los pacientes sobre su tratamiento y derivar al médico en casos de no adherencia e hipoglucemias no solucionadas. Material y métodos: estudio observacional, transversal y multicéntrico, en farmacias comunitarias, realizado a partir de abril de 2019 con diabéticos tipo 2 en tratamiento con hipoglucemiantes que lleven ≥12 meses con la misma pauta. Para la detección de hipoglucemias, los que estén en tratamiento con sulfonilureas, glinidas y/o insulinas. Diseño de un cuestionario con datos sociodemográficos, enfermedades y tratamientos. Utilización del test MMAS-8 para detectar no adherencia y del test de Clarke para hipoglucemias. Si se detecta incumplimiento y/o hipoglucemia y no se puede solucionar por el farmacéutico se derivará al médico de familia. Análisis estadístico: se utilizará el programa STATA13 para Windows®. Se realizarán análisis bivariados y multivariados. La significación se fijará en p

Resumo: O trabalho médico objeto deste estudo será tratado como processo de trabalho estruturado historicamente em realidades sociais concretas. O objetivo deste trabalho foi descrever e criticar as transformações ocorridas na organização do trabalho médico no último século, de um modelo taylorista/fordista para um “modelo japonês”. Concluiu-se que o contexto atual se apresenta desfavorável ao médico na qualidade de trabalhado e à sociedade como usuária dos serviços de saúde.

La pandemia del Covid-19 ha traído consigo el fortalecimiento de distintas formas de prestación de servicios de salud con el fin de adecuarlos a las circunstancias de esta emergencia. Uno de ellos ha sido la Telemedicina, la cual se ha constituido en una adecuada respuesta a las limitaciones de la prestación de servicios presenciales producto de las medidas sanitarias de distanciamiento y movilización. En este artículo, se revisarán las principales recomendaciones éticas y jurídicas que orientan una correcta prestación de servicios telemáticos. Se repasan al final las regulaciones nacionales e internacionales sobre esta materia, en particular las regulaciones de Brasil, Perú, Colombia, Argentina y Uruguay.

Objective: Have the most current evidence in relation to the evaluation of medical healthcare for patients with diabetes in primary care., Method: During the review process, we followed the recommendations to improve the publication of systematic reviews and meta-analyses and the preferred reporting points for PRISMA systematic reviews. The bibliographic search was carried out in Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL), SCOPUS, Scielo, MedLine/ PubMed, Cochrane databases and in the Google Scholar search engine, with free and controlled language, using the MeSh search terms: «Physicians, Primary Care», «Diabetes Mellitus, Type2». Eight selected articles were analyzed. The articles were selected based on their relevance, published in peer-reviewed academic journals and published between 2019 and 2023., Results: The main study tool represents interventions in knowledge and practice about the care of patients with diabetes among primary care physicians. The most important discussion topics extracted in the analyzed articles refer to knowledge, clinical inertia, patients' housing challenges, adherence intervention programs, and a self-care application for patients with diabetes., Conclusions: The findings of this study indicate the need to improve medical health care through knowledge, attitudes and practices in primary care regarding patients with diabetes. In this way, it could be considered a useful tool to promote medical healthcare in primary care., (Copyright © 2024 Sociedad Española de Médicos de Atención Primaria (SEMERGEN).

When the patron saint festivities of Azkoitia, the Andramaris, were cancelled in 2020, several people asked me whether anything similar had ever happened. In this article, I describe the events that occurred during the cholera outbreak in Azkoitia in 1855 and the way in which it affected the festivities. No events took place, except for the odd religious celebration to ask for protection from San Roque. At the end of the pandemic, a Te Deum was sung at the Parish Church of Santa María La Real. The Asian morbid cholera claimed the lives of 69 residents in Azkoitia and 272 in Azpeitia. The work carried out by the town doctor of Azkoitia, Dionisio Ortiz Arrieta, and the barber or bleeder, Francisco Ignacio Sarriegui, is particularly interesting. I also discuss the publication by Doctor Juan Antonio Monedero that describes how the epidemic unfolded in Gipuzkoa. To end, I include a brief anecdote about the pyrotechnics of the time, citing the famous character of Canuto Aguirre from Vitoria. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The personality of Paolo Ruffini is described on occasion of the bicentennial of his death. Apart from his early years, he spent most of his life in Modena, therefore he is usually considered “Modenese”. He graduated in medicine at the University of Modena, although he was an academic professor of mathematics from the year before his graduation until his last days. He had studied this discipline during his two-year preparation period at university. From 1791 until his death, he was also a committed general practitioner. Since 1814, he was chair professor in medicine and was also appointed Dean of Modena University. He is well known to high-school students for the rule which bears his name, although his international fame is due to the theorem on the insolubility of equations greater than the fourth degree. He wrote several articles on epistemological topics considered from a Catholic perspective. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

El aumento de la prevalencia de problemas de salud mental y burnout en estudiantes y profesionales de la salud en Chile y el mundo, asociado a la actual pandemia de COVID-19, ha visibilizado un viejo problema que urge abordar: el agotamiento crónico y los problemas de salud mental que sufren los estudiantes a lo largo de su formación. Para resolverlo, se requiere mucho más que mejorar el acceso a servicios de salud mental o propiciar iniciativas puntuales que promuevan el bienestar. Es preciso revisar la cultura institucional, remover las barreras al bienestar e introducir iniciativas que permitan la ‘seguridad psicológica’, característica de ambientes educacionales que favorecen el bienestar y el aprendizaje significativo. En un futuro cercano, las instituciones formadoras tendrán que demostrar que sus estudiantes y docentes tienen niveles adecuados de bienestar, y que implementan y evalúan regularmente el impacto de las políticas curriculares destinadas a asegurar este objetivo. En este artículo revisaremos la situación de salud mental de los estudiantes de medicina, particularmente del síndrome de agotamiento profesional o burnout y sus consecuencias; describiremos algunas evidencias de intervenciones exitosas para reducir el burnout, incluyendo una experiencia nacional, y analizaremos la relación entre la cultura médica y el bienestar estudiantil. Finalmente, reflexionaremos sobre las características de los ambientes educacionales que permiten un aprendizaje profundo y significativo, y que compatibilizan la excelencia académica con el bienestar de los aprendices.

En el presente artículo se analiza la figura del docente de medicina del siglo IV conocido como iatrosofista (ἰατροσοφιστής), el cual formará parte de la cultura tardoantigua y bizantina por lo menos hasta el siglo VII. En el marco de la παιδεία, esto es, del sistema de educación superior grecorromana, la medicina ocupaba un papel como especialización sumamente necesario en la sociedad desde tiempos primitivos. En este contexto, se estudian a aquellos profesionales a través de las biografías de médicos de Eunapio de Sardes (c.400). Como resultado, se ofrecen cuatro rasgos básicos que caracterizan al iatrosofista del siglo IV como son su reconocimiento institucional, su reconocimiento popular, su elevada erudición y su influencia política.

La lucha por la independencia de Cuba contó con numerosos partidarios en Europa, pero la contribución más notable de sacrificio y sangre fue la ofrecida por Italia. Entre los italianos que apoyaron la libertad para Cuba, estuvo el doctor Francesco Federico Falco, graduado de médico en la Universidad de Roma y especializado en cirugía. Como secretario del Comité Italiano por la libertad de Cuba, realizó una intensa labor propagandística de solidaridad por la causa independentista de los cubanos. El objetivo de este trabajo es evocar la actitud revolucionaria del médico italiano que participó en la guerra de 1895, a favor de la causa cubana. El doctor Falco se unió al Ejército Libertador en 1898, para prestar servicios como médico en el cuerpo de sanidad militar. Se destacó por su valentía como combatiente y alcanzó el grado de comandante. Al instaurarse la República, el gobierno cubano lo nombró en cargos diplomáticos en países de Europa y finalmente en Italia, donde inició las relaciones diplomáticas entre las dos naciones. Se destacó como intelectual, con una fructífera obra literaria en la que patentizó que contribuyó a divulgar la historia de Cuba. La participación de médicos cubanos junto a colegas italianos en el enfrentamiento a la actual pandemia de la COVID-19, causada por el nuevo coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, recuerda al doctor italiano Francesco Federico Falco, que se incorporó como médico al Ejército Libertador, para luchar junto a los cubanos contra el colonialismo español en la postrimería del siglo XIX.

The fight for Cuban independence had numerous supporters in Europe, but the most notable contribution of sacrifice and blood was that offered by Italy. Among the Italians who supported freedom for Cuba was Dr. Francesco Federico Falco, a medical graduate from the University of Rome and specialized in surgery. As secretary of the Italian Committee for the Freedom of Cuba, he carried out intense propaganda work of solidarity for the independence cause of Cubans. The objective of this work is to evoke the revolutionary attitude of the Italian doctor who participated in the war of 1895, in favor of the Cuban cause. Dr. Falco joined the Liberation Army in 1898, to serve as a doctor in the military health corps. He was noted for his bravery as a fighter and reached the rank of Commander. When the Republic was established, the Cuban government appointed him to diplomatic positions in European countries and finally in Italy, where he began diplomatic relations between the two nations. He stood out as an intellectual, with a fruitful literary work in which he demonstrated his commitment to Cuba and contributed to spreading its history. The participation of Cuban doctors along with Italian colleagues in the confrontation with the current pandemic caused by the new coronavirus, reminds the Italian doctor FrancescoFederico Falco, who joined the Liberation Army as a doctor, to fight together with the Cubans, against colonialism Spanish in the late nineteenth century.

1. Bernhard von Guden diagnosed the Bavarian King Ludwig II with "paranoia" (madness), although Ludwig was not personally evaluated by this expert psychiatrist, a diagnosis that the Bavarian government used to justify removing Ludwig from power. 2. His increasingly abnormal behavior, his multiply building projects, for which he incurred much debt, his conviction that he descended from the Bourbons through "baptism", his unbridled homosexual life, together formed the basis for the psychiatristÂ's diagnosis. 3. According to modern criteria of psychiatry Ludwig displayed traits for schizotypal personality disorder together with an orbitofrontal syndrome, and an extravagance way of existence. 4.Bernhard von Gudden based his psychiatric diagnosis and expertise following the ethical principles of beneficence and primum non nocere, "to help, at least not to harm".

RESUMO Estudo quali-quantitativo, de abordagem exploratória, que buscou identificar o perfil do médico da Estratégia Saúde da Família no município de Governador Valadares, bem como sua formação e características do seu trabalho. Foram realizadas entrevistas semiestruturadas com 36 médicos de equipes de Saúde da Família nesse município. Utilizou-se a estatística descritiva simples e análise de conteúdo, modalidade temático-categorial, para a organização e análise dos dados coletados. Os resultados indicaram a predominância do sexo feminino, e apontaram profissionais brasileiros com idades entre 24 e 35 anos, com formação em instituição pública, com especialização na área de Medicina de Família. A maioria dos entrevistados pertence ao Programa Mais Médicos, com tempo de permanência na mesma equipe de até três anos. As vantagens destacadas foram identificação com a proposta de trabalho e valorização profissional, ao passo que as desvantagens apontadas foram vínculo empregatício instável, desamparo da gestão, local de atuação de difícil acesso e excesso de cobranças. Foram relatados como pontos facilitadores o trabalho em equipe e boa relação com a comunidade, enquanto a falta de recursos humanos e materiais, de equipamentos, financeiros e de tecnologia é um dos pontos dificultadores. Salienta-se a importância da atenção da gestão diante dessas dificuldades a fim de adequar a infraestrutura das unidades de saúde para proporcionar um trabalho que colabore para a mudança da saúde da população do território adscrito. É necessário repensar a maneira de incentivar o médico a permanecer na Estratégia Saúde da Família, com segurança e perspectivas no trabalho. Cabe salientar a importância do perfil desse médico, que, muitas vezes, teve uma formação diferente da preconizada nas Diretrizes Curriculares Nacionais do Curso de Medicina, o que dificulta a resolução dos problemas apontados neste estudo, haja vista o desconhecimento do papel da atenção primária, da importância da integração da rede de saúde e dos atributos do médico nesse nível de atenção.
