Percepção de residentes multiprofissionais acerca da interdisciplinaridade

Abstract

Multidisciplinary Residency in Health Care is a training activity in service and has the concept of interdisciplinarity as one of its pillars. Considering the pertinence of the matter and its implications not only on theory development, but also on the design of multidisciplinary practices in health care, the present research aims to understand the profile of the multiprofessional residents interviewed, their perceptions about the different forms of team performance in the field of health, focusing on the interdisciplinarity in Multiprofessional Residency Programs in Health Care, as well as their expectations and factors that favored and hindered the efficacy of their practices. The qualitative methodological approach will be used for the study, in which there will be individual interviews with 29 multidisciplinary residents in service at two federal universities in the state of Minas Gerais. Bardin's Content Analysis (2016) will be used for data analysis. Upon analyzing the results, it was observed that there are significant difficulties among the residents participating in the study in the differentiation between the types of teamwork in health, especially with regard to the terms “multiprofessionality” and “interdisciplinarity,” as seen from the degree of interaction between the disciplines, without a well-defined distinction between them. In addition, it was observed that for most residents, the PRMS provided interdisciplinarity only at specific times, which depended more on the personal research of the residents, the relationships established with the service professionals, as well as the dependence of logic used in each field of allocated activities. The primary difficulties encountered for interdisciplinary teamwork to be effective were individual, professional, and organizational training.
