Empathy in family medicine

Abstract

EMPATIA EM MEDICINA GERAL E FAMILIAR OBJECTIVO: A empatia é essencial nas relações terapêuticas. Uma relação empática tem vários resultados positivos: melhoria da relação médico-doente,aumento da satisfação e da capacidade de diagnóstico, e um melhor empowerment do doente. Este estudo pretende avaliar a empatia dos Médicos de Família (MF) num Centro de Saúde(CS) português e verificar a relação entre o grau de empatia de médico para doente e as características sócio-demográficas do utente. DESENHO: estudo transversal LOCALIZAÇÃO: CS da Senhora da Hora, Matosinhos PARTICIPANTES: utentes do CS Senhora da Hora, que efectuaram um contacto presencial com o seu MF durante o mês de Junho de 2009 MÉTODOS: O valor de empatia foi medido através do questionário Consultation and Relational Empathy (CARE). As associações entre variáveis foram testadas com testes não paramétricos (Mann-Whitney, Kruskal-Wallis) e correlação de Pearson. O nível de significância adoptado foi de 0,05. RESULTADOS: Foi obtida uma amostra de 353 questionários. O valor médio de empatia global entre os MF incluídos foi de 41,1 pontos, numa escala de 1-50 (IC 95%, 40,1-42,2). A única associação estatisticamente significativa foi com a escolaridade (p=0,02). Pacientes com baixo nível de escolaridade atribuíram pontuações mais baixas de empatia no seu MF. CONCLUSÃO: Os utentes deste CS pontuaram um elevado grau de empatia aos seus MF. Pacientes com baixo nível de escolaridade atribuíram menor pontuação, uma associação que não foi encontrada noutros estudos.
