Metodología: Se trata de una revisión integrativa de la literatura, con un enfoque cualitativo y descriptivo. La búsqueda se realizó en las plataformas en línea: BVS y Periódico CAPES. Los artículos seleccionados fueron en portugués e inglés, publicados entre 2015 y 2022, utilizando los siguientes descriptores: educación sexual, infecciones de transmisión sexual y ancianos. Resultados: En los últimos años se ha presentado un aumento de las ITS en adultos mayores, donde la falta de información, los estigmas sociales y la falta de preparación de los profesionales de la salud para atender a esta población son los principales impulsores del problema. Además, se constató que la formación de profesionales de la salud y la realización de prácticas educativas son estrategias utilizadas para deconstruir tabúes relacionados con la sexualidad en la vejez, la promoción de la salud y la prevención de las ITS. Conclusión: Los estudios revelan el aumento de las ITS en los ancianos, con eso, la importancia de la actualización del equipo de salud y la adopción de prácticas educativas para los ancianos, con el fin de proporcionar información segura sobre la práctica sexual, contradecir los tabúes actuales y mejorar la salud atención brindada a esta población.Objetivo: Descrever como a literatura aborda a educação sexual como forma de prevenção às infecções sexualmente transmissíveis na população idosa. Metodologia: Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa da literatura, de abordagem qualitativa e caráter descritivo. A busca foi realizada nas plataformas online: BVS e Periódico CAPES. Os artigos selecionados foram na língua portuguesa e inglesa, publicados no período de 2015 a 2022, sendo utilizados como descritores: educação sexual, infecções sexualmente transmissíveis e idoso. Resultados: Nos últimos anos, houve um crescimento das ISTs nos idosos, onde encontram-se como principais impulsionadores da problemática a escassez de informações, os estigmas sociais e o despreparo de profissionais de saúde no atendimento à essa população. Ademais, notou-se que a capacitação dos profissionais de saúde e a realização de práticas educativas são estratégias utilizadas para a desconstrução dos tabus relacionados à sexualidade na terceira idade, promoção da saúde e prevenção das ISTs. Conclusão: Os estudos revelam o aumento das ISTs nos idosos, com isso é notória a importância da atualização da equipe de saúde e a adoção de práticas educativas para os idosos, a fim de fornecer informações seguras acerca da prática sexual, desmentir os tabus vigentes e melhorar os atendimentos de saúde prestados a essa população.Research, Society and Development2023-03-19info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/4073910.33448/rsd-v12i3.40739Research, Society and Development; Vol. 12 No. 3; e26812340739Research, Society and Development; Vol. 12 Núm. 3; e26812340739Research, Society and Development; v. 12 n. 3; e268123407392525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/40739/33266Copyright (c) 2023 Jamilly Silva Paixão ; José Iglauberson Oliveira dos Santos ; Stephanie Marie Vieira Carvalho; Victória Maria Franca Dantas Trindade; Vitória Elma dos Santos Celestino; Carla Viviane Freitas de Jesushttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessPaixão , Jamilly Silva Santos , José Iglauberson Oliveira dos Carvalho, Stephanie Marie Vieira Trindade, Victória Maria Franca Dantas Celestino, Vitória Elma dos Santos Jesus, Carla Viviane Freitas de2023-03-23T08:33:38Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/40739Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2023-03-23T08:33:38Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false |
