RODRIGUES, Vinícius Santos; BATISTA, Cássia Beatriz y VECCHIA, Marcelo Dalla. Anatomized Bodies and Medical Education: Identifying Intersections between Culture, Training and Medical Practice. Rev. Bras. Educ. Med. [online]. 2020, vol.44, n.3, e106. Epub 28-Jul-2020. ISSN 1981-5271. https://doi.org/10.1590/1981-5271v44.3-20190339.
Introduction:
Medical practice is driven by a set of ideals, values, and behaviours shared and transmitted between specialties and different professional profiles, exerting significant influence during undergraduate training, especially by mean of a hidden curriculum.
Method:
We sought to identify and characterize the interactions between culture, medical education and medical practice in the process of body-anatomization. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with teachers at a medical school.
Result:
We discuss the analysis of the anatomized body as habitus, and its repercussions for the understanding of the influence of medical culture during undergraduate medical training.
Conclusion:
The anatomization of the human body is directly linked to the biological health model and the integral approach to health depends on changes in how we understand and teach students about the body.
