SANTOS, Normeide Pedreira dos. Recurso semiotécnico para otimizar o desempenho de estudantes em consultas de puericultura: uma experiência piloto. Rev. Bras. Educ. Med. [online]. 2011, vol.35, n.01, pp.122-131. ISSN 1981-5271.

This paper describes and comments on a pilot teaching experience in clinical pediatrics in Family Health Units, using individualized flowcharts by age, according to the Brazilian Ministry of Health’s guidelines for monitoring infants (0-12 months of age). The study was performed during pediatric care as part of training for third-year medical students at the State University in Feira de Santana, Bahia (UEFS). The flowcharts were applied in the field and proved effective for systematizing child care consultations at the students’ respective stage of development, reducing the initial stress, providing greater security for students, and allowing more extensive and instructive case histories, with positive repercussions on the students’ learning and the possibility for improved quality of care for children and recording of relevant data on patient charts, for use in future research.
