INTERDISCIPLINARY AND INTERPROFESSIONALITY IN THE FAMILY HEALTH STRATEGY

Abstract Interdisciplinarity and its practical correlation, interprofessionality, are essential to the work in the Family Health Strategy. The objective was to characterize the interdisciplinary perspective of Family Health Strategy workers in a Brazilian capital, linking it to interprofessionality. Transversal, exploratory and descriptive study, developed from the qualitative and quantitative approaches. Data were collected from june to november 2014 through questionnaires and participant observation. The results of the questionnaire were converted into scores, allowing to classify the level of interdisciplinarity. The observation findings, recorded in the field diary, were submitted to content analysis and discussed in parallel with the quantitative findings. It was verified, in the questionnaires, that the dimension ‘reception’ was the only one that presented medium availability for practices that can make interdisciplinarity feasible. The results indicate that the health professionals’ perception about interdisciplinarity was positive, however, contradictions of these findings with the ones observed locus . In the participant observation, it was verified that the professionals need to follow some paths in the sense of materializing the interdisciplinarity in collaborative interprofessional practices. It is important to emphasize the need for management-level actions that favor these practices; Permanent education as a strategy for coping with integration difficulties; And the subjective investment of workers in the same direction.

本研究聚焦跨学科性（interdisciplinarity）及其实践关联维度——跨专业协作（interprofessionality），二者均为家庭健康策略（Family Health Strategy）开展的核心要素。本研究旨在刻画巴西某首都城市家庭健康策略从业者的跨学科视角，并将其与跨专业协作相绑定。本研究属于横断探索性描述研究，采用定性与定量相结合的研究范式。研究数据于2014年6月至11月间通过问卷调研与参与式观察法采集。问卷结果被转化为量化评分，以此对跨学科性水平进行分级划分。通过实地日志记录的观察结果经内容分析法处理后，与定量研究结果同步开展研讨。问卷分析结果显示，维度"reception"是唯一一项在支撑跨学科实践落地方面表现为中等可用度的维度。研究结果表明，卫生从业者对跨学科性的认知整体呈积极态势，但该结论与实地观察所得结果存在矛盾。参与式观察结果显示，从业者需通过若干路径，方能将跨学科性具象化为协作式跨专业实践。需重点强调：应推行有利于此类实践的管理层面举措；以持续性教育培训作为破解整合难题的策略；同时推动从业者在该方向上的主观投入。
