    MadAlegria - Estudantes de medicina atuando como doutores-palhaços: estratégia útil para humanização do ensino médico?
    (2014) TAKAHAGUI, Flavio Mitio; MORAES, Érika Neves de Souza; BERALDI, Gabriel Henrique; AKAMINE, Guilherme Kenzzo; BASILE, Maria Aparecida; SCIVOLETTO, Sandra
    INTRODUCTION: Historically speaking, medicine reflected human values until scientific and technological bases made significant strides in knowledge, sometimes leaving a human approach to attending patients to take a back seat. It has only been in recent decades, that we come to consider how to combine scientific knowledge with humanitarian care. In this context, students from São Paulo University (Brazil) created ""MadAlegria"", using the role of the ""doutor-palhaço"" [clown-doctor] to develop empathy and attend to adult patients by means of games. METHODS: Dressed as clown-doctors, medical students made voluntary visits to hospitalized patients. In 2011, the project was undertaken by 38 volunteers who made weekly visits to the São Paulo State Cancer Institute (Icesp). In 2012, the initiative was expanded to include other wards of the University of São Paulo Faculty of Medicine (FMUSP) Hospital Complex. Studies were also conducted in order to understand the impact of the clown-doctor character on adult patients, health professionals and the students themselves. RESULTS: Preliminary results suggest that most of the students acquired communication skills and also broadened their vision of the patients. CONCLUSION: Future research may elucidate more details on the benefits of training medical students in mental health.

    Challenges in Developing a Community-Based Program for Maltreated Children and Adolescents in Brazil
    (2014) SCIVOLETTO, Sandra; MEDEIROS FILHO, Mauro Vitor de; STEFANOVICS, Elina; ROSENHECK, Robert A.
    This column describes the planning and development of The Equilibrium Program (TEP) for multiply traumatized and neglected children and adolescents with mental and general medical problems in Sao Paulo, Brazil. The program is a partnership between university faculty, various service providers, the courts, and the city government. In the first step, child psychiatry faculty from the University of Sao Paulo visited central-city areas and group shelters to talk to street youths to better understand their needs. A nearby community sports center building was chosen to be a center where youths could access services and engage in recreational activities and where the work of family integration could be facilitated. A multidisciplinary team conducts an in-depth assessment and creates an intervention plan, overseen by a case manager. Challenges to implementing such programs are discussed.

    Functional outcomes of maltreated children and adolescents in a community-based rehabilitation program in Brazil: Six-month improvement and baseline predictors
    (2014) STEFANOVICS, Elina A.; FILHO, Mauro V. M.; ROSENHECK, Robert A.; SCIVOLETTO, Sandra
    This study sought to implement outcomes monitoring and to review outcome data from a community-based rehabilitation program for maltreated children and adolescents in Sao Paulo, Brazil. Maltreated children and adolescents (N = 452) were enrolled in The Equilibrium Program (TEP), a multidisciplinary community-based rehabilitation program. About half (n = 230) of the participants were successfully evaluated using the Children's Global Assessment Scale (C-GAS) at entry, 3, and/or 6 months later. Analysis of outcomes used hierarchical linear modeling of functional change from baseline. With a baseline C-GAS score of 51.7 (SD = 14.22), average improvement was 2.8 and 5.5 points at 3 and 6 months, respectively (reflecting small to moderate effect sizes = 0.20 and 0.39). Improvement was associated with Problems related to upbringing (p < .02) at entry and absence of Physical abuse (p < .05) and Negative life events in childhood (p < .05) but was not associated with sociodemographics or any specific psychiatric diagnosis. This study showed that outcomes monitoring is feasible in a community-based program in a developing country. Although there was no untreated control group for comparison and specific evidence-based treatments were not used, it is notable that significant improvement, with small to moderate effect size, was observed.
