Resumo: | Objectives: To assess the knowledge level on euthanasia, orthothanasia and dysthanasia among medical students at universities in Aracaju; to analyze whether knowledge on euthanasia, dysthanasia and orthothanasia has been improved over the years in medical courses and to verify whether medical students agree/disagree with the practices of euthanasia, orthothanasia and dysthanasia. Methodology: Exploratory, descriptive, cross-sectional and quantitative study; produced through a questionnaire applied to medical students at two universities in Aracaju. Data analyzed with descriptive statistics and significance level set at p <0.05. Results: 222 medical students participated (51% from public and 49% from private universities). Of these, 19% did not know how to define orthothanasia, 7% euthanasia and 17% dysthanasia. It was observed that from the 10th to the 12th period 15% knew how to define euthanasia, 15% dysthanasia and 16% orthothanasia. On approval, 54% approved of euthanasia, 74% of orthothanasia and 43% approved of dysthanasia without knowing its concept. Final considerations: Medical graduation is incipient in this issue, as a wrong definition is a basic indication of destructuring, causing daily unpreparedness. Agreeing/disagreeing with practices is influenced by knowledge, thus, almost half of the students approved dysthanasia without knowing its meaning, increasing the probability of future medical error, malpractice or other serious infractions. There is a decrease in correct answers for students who are about to graduate, showing that there are no interventions to improve knowledge throughout college. Including bioethical subjects about euthanasia, dysthanasia, orthothanasia and death process, and acting opportunities, indicate a good start in the interventions required. |

Metodología: Estudio exploratorio, descriptivo, transversal y cuantitativo; aplicando un cuestionario a estudiantes de medicina de dos universidades de Aracaju. Análisis con estadísticas descriptivas y nivel de significación fijado en p <0,05. Resultados: Participaron 222 estudiantes de medicina (51% de la universidad pública y 49% de la universidad privada). El 19% no supo definir la ortotanasia, el 7% la eutanasia y el 17% la distanasia. Del décimo al duodécimo periodo, el 15% sabía definir la eutanasia, el 15% la distanasia y el 16% la ortotanasia. El 54% aprueba la eutanasia, el 74% la ortotanasia y el 43% la distanasia, sin conocer el concepto. Consideraciones finales: la graduación médica es incipiente, ya que errar en la definición es indicativo de desestructuración. El acuerdo/desacuerdo está influenciado por el conocimiento, por lo que casi la mitad aprobó la distanasia sin conocer su significado, lo que aumenta la probabilidad de error médico y otras infracciones. Hay una disminución de las respuestas correctas de los académicos cuando están a punto de graduarse, lo que demuestra un fracaso en la mejora de los conocimientos durante la universidad. Incluir temas de bioética y oportunidades de acción son buenas intervenciones iniciales.Objetivos: Avaliar o nível de conhecimento sobre eutanásia, ortotanásia e distanásia entre estudantes de medicina das universidades de Aracaju; analisar se o conhecimento sobre eutanásia, distanásia e ortotanásia foi aprimorado, com o passar dos anos, nos cursos de medicina e averiguar se os estudantes de medicina concordam/discordam com as práticas da eutanásia, ortotanásia e distanásia. Metodologia: Estudo exploratório, descritivo, transversal e quantitativo; realizado através de questionário aplicado nos acadêmicos de Medicina de duas universidades em Aracaju. Dados analisados com estatísticas descritivas e nível de significância fixado em p <0,05. Resultados: Participaram 222 estudantes de medicina (51% da universidade pública e 49% da particular). Destes, 19% não sabem definir ortotanásia, 7%, eutanásia e 17%, distanásia. Observou-se que do 10º ao 12º período, apenas 15% sabiam definir eutanásia, 15%, distanásia e 16%, ortotanásia. Sobre aprovação, 54% aprovam a eutanásia, 74%, a ortotanásia e 43% aprovam a distanásia sem saber o seu conceito. Considerações finais: A graduação médica é incipiente nesta temática, pois, errar definição é indicativo básico de desestruturação, causando despreparo cotidiano. Concordar/discordar com as práticas é influenciado pelo conhecimento, assim, quase metade dos estudantes aprovaram a distanásia sem saber seu significado, aumentando probabilidade de futuro erro médico, imperícia ou outras infrações graves. Existe diminuição nos acertos dos estudantes que estão na iminência da formação, demonstrando que não há intervenções para aprimoramento do conhecimento ao longo da faculdade. Incluir disciplinas bioéticas com conhecimento sobre eutanásia, distanásia, ortotanásia e processo de morte, seguida por oportunidades de atuação, indicam bom começo nas intervenções necessárias.Research, Society and Development2021-10-21info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/2141810.33448/rsd-v10i13.21418Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 No. 13; e547101321418Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 Núm. 13; e547101321418Research, Society and Development; v. 10 n. 13; e5471013214182525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/21418/19854Copyright (c) 2021 Bruna Maria Barros de Jesus; Mylla Crislley Trindade Carvalho; Déborah Mônica Machado Pimentel; Roberta Machado Pimentel Rebello de Mattoshttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessJesus, Bruna Maria Barros de Carvalho, Mylla Crislley Trindade Pimentel, Déborah Mônica Machado Mattos, Roberta Machado Pimentel Rebello de 2021-11-21T18:26:28Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/21418Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:40:50.365171Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false |
