Investigação em farmacoepidemiologia de campo: uma proposta para as ações de farmacovigilância no Brasil Investigation in field pharmacoepidemiology: a proposal for the actions of pharmacovigilance in Brazil

Abstract

O presente artigo tem como objetivos propor e descrever a investigação em farmacoepidemiologia de campo como função primordial de farmacovigilância a ser conduzida pelas vigilâncias sanitárias municipais, estaduais e/ou federal frente à notificação, comunicação e ou rumores nos meios de comunicação social de casos de eventos adversos relacionados com medicamentos. Inicialmente fazemos uma contextualização da farmacovigilância, incluindo definição, eventos de interesse e principais funções. Na sequência, descrevemos a investigação em farmacoepidemiologia de campo orientada para a execução dos doze passos da investigação. Logo a seguir, apresentamos uma caracterização geral de investigações em farmacoepidemiologia de campo realizadas no Brasil. Finalmente, argumentamos que a investigação em farmacoepidemiologia de campo constitui importante instrumento para o aperfeiçoamento das ações de farmacovigilância visando a melhoria da segurança de pacientes no país.The present article aims to propose and to describe the investigation in field pharmacoepidemiology as having a major role in pharmacovigilance by municipal, state and federal governments to manage drug-related reports, communication and information in the media. First, pharmacovigilance is put into context, by including its concepts, events of interest and main functions. Subsequently, field pharmacoepidemiology investigation oriented to the twelve steps is described. Then, we present a general picture of the investigation in field pharmacoepidemiology conducted in Brazil. Finally, we argue that investigation in field pharmacoepidemiology is an important tool to improve measures in pharmacovigilance and to improve patient safety in the country.
