Abstract

BALLESTER, Denise; ZUCCOLOTTO, Sandra M.C.; GANNAM, Silmar de S. A.  and  ESCOBAR, Ana Maria U.. A Inclusão da perspectiva do paciente na consulta médica: um desafio na formação do médico. Rev. Bras. Educ. Med. [online]. 2010, vol.34, n.04, pp.598-606. ISSN 1981-5271.

Growing discussion has focused on the failure of the biomedical model to solve most of the population’s health problems. According to various authors, medical consultations lead to better outcomes when they are backed by the principles of the patient-centered model, including the patient’s perspective. This requires knowing the physical, psychosocial, and cultural dimensions comprising the patient’s perspective and including them in the patient interview. Since undergraduate medical training is still based on the biomedical model, the paradigm shift for medical consultations involves significant curriculum changes.

Keywords : Patient Centered Care; Interview; Physician-Patient Relation; Medical Education.
