Introduction: Medical Residency is a specialization course characterized as in-service training, considered in Brazil as the gold standard in the development of specialist physicians’ training. The medical residency preceptorship is an activity carried out by a specialist physician, responsible for monitoring resident physicians. However, there is neither a definition of the main requirements for such a preceptor, nor of his/her academic background to carry out the due teaching training, and it was possible to notice a relative lack of preparation regarding the pedagogical aspects. Methods: Descriptive study based on a quantitative approach, comprising 200 preceptors, of both genders, from medical residency programs in Maceió, state of Alagoas, Brazil. Results: The mean age was 43.31 ± 10.31 years, with a slight majority of female participants (52.5%). The mean time since graduation was 19.5 ± 10.58 years, and 83% of the participants had graduated in the state of Alagoas. Moreover, 78.5% said they had their Medical Residency certification, with an increased trend of public institution preceptors getting their degree at the stricto sensu level. The mean time of their completed postgraduate course was 12.63 ± 10.87 years and 7.07 ± 6.99 years being a preceptor. Only 19% mentioned they had some qualification for exercising the preceptorship, and 29.5% work as the teachers at the undergraduate level. The state of Alagoas has followed the expansion of the Residency programs, justifying the mean age found, similar to other studies. The majority of female participants can be associated with the feminization of health care professionals. The high percentage of preceptors with medical residency qualification is in accordance with Resolution n. 4/1978. We found experienced preceptors, but some authors differed. The low percentage of preceptors with qualification for exercising preceptorship indicates low interest and lack of available training. Conclusion: This study population is characterized as being young, and most are females. They have had long professional experience, and most have graduated in the state of Alagoas. There is a predominance of medical residency as their main qualification, and few of them have had training in the field. Finally, preceptors from public institutions have mostly got their degrees at the stricto sensu level.

Resumo: Introdução: A qualidade do ambiente de ensino é fundamental para um aprendizado efetivo na formação profissional. Objetivo: Esta pesquisa buscou identificar e comparar a percepção dos estudantes de cinco cursos diferentes de ciências da saúde acerca do ambiente educacional. Método: Trata-se de um estudo transversal, analítico, com abordagem quantitativa, realizado com 277 alunos dos cursos de Fisioterapia, Enfermagem, Medicina, Terapia Ocupacional e Fonoaudiologia, matriculados no ano de 2019, em uma universidade pública. Foi utilizado o instrumento Dundee Ready Education Environment Measure (DREEM) que possui 50 questões fechadas, pontuadas numa escala Likert, que, ao final, avaliarão cinco domínios do ambiente educacional (aprendizado, professores, acadêmico, atmosfera e social). Para a comparação das médias da pontuação geral, dos itens individuais e dos domínios entre os cursos, utilizou-se o teste de Kruskal-Wallis (intervalo de confiança de 95%). O método de Dunn foi usado como análise pós-teste das comparações múltiplas. Resultado: A percepção geral dos estudantes sobre seu ambiente educacional demonstrou ser “mais positiva que negativa”. As médias dos domínios aprendizado, professores, atmosfera e social apresentaram diferenças entre os cursos (p < 0,05). O suporte aos estudantes estressados foi o item com média mais baixa da pesquisa em todos os cursos (p < 0,05). A graduação em Medicina mostrou ter aspectos preocupantes quanto à percepção do aprendizado. Enfermagem foi o curso mais bem avaliado em relação à percepção geral do ambiente educacional. Os cursos de Fisioterapia e Fonoaudiologia mostraram áreas que merecem atenção no tocante à percepção das relações sociais acadêmicas. Por fim, o curso de Terapia Ocupacional evidenciou áreas preocupantes quanto à percepção dos estudantes sobre o ensino, os professores, o desempenho acadêmico e a atmosfera do curso. Conclusão: Demonstrou-se que há diferenças na percepção do ambiente de ensino pelos alunos entre os cursos avaliados. Entretanto, o ambiente educacional de todos os cursos foi avaliado de maneira mais positiva que negativa. A falta de suporte aos estudantes estressados é a área mais preocupante neste estudo. Assim, o conhecimento da percepção dos acadêmicos sobre o ambiente educacional pode oferecer maior direcionamento na busca pela qualidade da educação superior em saúde.

Introduction: The pre-anesthetic consultation (PAC) is considered a fundamental step in the perioperative phase, and it is a moment of communication between the anesthesiologist and the patient, where the patient can be informed and clarified, characterizing this a communicative and therapeutic process. However, its benefits are still generally unknown. Educational videos are surfacing as fast-access media that can reach a wide audience. Some studies have highlighted the benefits of using educational videos about PAC. In this context the current study provides an experience report about the process of creation and validation of an educational video about PAC. Methods: In order to choose an educational product, the technical aspect, as well as the cognitive, multisensory stimuli and personality structure of individuals must be observed. This educational video was made based on the CTM3 method consisting of the following stages: Educational product Conception (C); Theoretical framework (T); and Methodological framework (M3), this last one is based on 3 theories: Transactional Analysis, Multisensory Exploration, and Neurolinguistics. Results and Discussion: The creation and validation of this educational video comprised seven stages. The video length was approximately 2 minutes 24 seconds, and it was projected in 10 scenes. Finally, the video was submitted to a validation process by an ad hoc committee. The advantages of educational resources, particularly videos for health education, are well defined being an increasingly used resource especially in interventions. The use of the CTM3 Method was fundamental because its methodology involves particularly the cognitive and sensory aspects and the specificities of each person. Conclusion: The use of CPA educational videos, due to their great capacity to attract attention of viewers, can help to inform the patient.
