Interprofissionalidade e fisioterapia na atenção primária: uma revisão integrativa

Abstract

In Brazil, there has been an advance in interprofessional and collaborative practice in services, currently health professionals are looking for ways to implement this practice at different levels of care, including primary care. The physiotherapist as well as several of these professionals are adapting to this model of cooperation, therefore, this study aimed to describe the evidence about Interprofessionality and Physiotherapy in Primary Care. This is an integrative literature review without meta-analysis in the electronic databases Virtual Health Library (VHL), Scopus, Science Direct, Elsevier, Redib, Research Gate, CrossRef, Directory of Open Access Journals - DOAJ, Diadorin, Summaries.Org and PeDro. From May to September 2020, Decs “Primary Health Care”, “Interprofessional Relations”, “Physical Therapy Specialty” combined with the Boolean operator AND were used as indexes. Included were articles available with full text in full, in the English language, from 2010 to 2020. The final sample consisted of 9 articles on the subject investigated. The VHL and Science direct databases answered the combinations and filters used, with a total of 7 and 77 articles found respectively, the selected articles were then analyzed by title and abstract, leaving a total of 6 in the VHL and 3 in Science direct. Considering the analysis of the selected articles, it can be said that interprofessionality is still a topic rarely addressed with primary care professionals. The physiotherapist must be inserted as a professional in the process of occupying this space, in order to build an effective bond with this area.
