PURPOSE:To evaluate the scientific production from the surgical areas from the State University of Para (UEPA), Federal Universities of Para (UFPA) and of Paraiba (UFPB), Brazil. METHODS:The scientific productions of professors in the last five years were classified according to the Qualis system of CAPESMedicine III (http://qualis.capes.gov.br/webqualis/publico/pesquisaPublicaClassificacao.seam?conversationPropagation=begin) and it was computed the number of guidance of students scientific projects. RESULTS:Seventy-four professors were included, 31 with Master and 43 with PhD degrees. UFPA presented more publications (49% out of the total), which 32% of them in Journals B1 or higher. Otorhinolaryngology presented the greatest number of publications (29% out of the total); however, 98% of them in B3 or lower. Gastroenterological Surgery, which is responsible for 23% out of the total, had 57% of its publications in B1 or higher. The most frequent type of guidance was the one about scientific work of completion of undergraduate course (63%). Gynecology and Obstetrics presented the greatest number of student's guidance (35% out of the total) and Gastroenterological Surgery the largest number of Master's degree and PhD degree supervisions. CONCLUSIONS:The specialties Gynecology and Obstetrics and Gastroenterological Surgery from the State University of Para (UEPA), Federal Universities of Para (UFPA) and of Paraiba (UFPB) presented the greatest number of professors with academic degrees. Gastroenterological Surgery presented the largest scientific productions at higher strata of WebQualis CAPES classification and also the largest number of Master and PhD directed.

“…The decadent infrastructure of Brazilian university hospitals is one of the most acute expressions of the crisis these institutions have experienced over the years (Guimarães, 2004). Discussing the bases for a national health, science and technology and innovation policy, Guimarães (2004) mentions the asymmetry between health benefits and costs and the speed at which health knowledge produced for the benefit of the population is appropriated.…”

Knowledge about evidence-based medicine selection and the role of the Drug and Therapeutics Committee (DTC) is an important topic in the literature but is scarcely discussed in Brazil. Our objective, using a qualitative design, was to analyze the medicine selection process performed in four large university hospitals in the state of Rio de Janeiro. Information was collected from documents, interviews with key informants and direct observations. Two dimensions were analyzed: the structural and organizational aspects of the selection process and the criteria and methods used in medicine selection. The findings showed that the DTC was active in two hospitals. The structure for decision-making was weak. DTC members had little experience in evidence-based selection, and their everyday functions did not influence their participation in DTC activities. The methods used to evaluate evidence were inadequate. The uncritical adoption of new medicines in these complex hospital facilities may be hampering pharmaceutical services, with consequences for the entire health system. Although the qualitative approach considerably limits the extent to which the results can be extrapolated, we believe that our findings may be relevant to other university hospitals in the country.Uniterms: Medicines/selection. Drug and Therapeutic Committees. University hospitals/medicines selection.A produção de conhecimento sobre a seleção de medicamentos baseada em evidências e executada por Comissões de Farmácia e Terapêutica é ainda escassa no Brasil, apesar da ampla discussão sobre o tema em países desenvolvidos. Este estudo buscou conhecer e analisar os aspectos relacionados à seleção de medicamentos em quatro hospitais universitários de grande porte no Rio de Janeiro, por meio de abordagem qualitativa. Entrevistas, observação direta e análise documental instrumentaram a coleta de dados qualitativos e quantitativos. A análise considerou duas dimensões: (i) estrutura e organização para o processo de seleção e (ii) critérios e métodos utilizados para avaliação. Apenas dois hospitais possuíam Comissão de Farmácia e Terapêutica (CFT) ativa. A estrutura para a tomada de decisão era deficiente e os membros das Comissões apontaram pouca experiência e disponibilidade para a atividade. Os métodos de avaliação e critérios observados indicaram um processo de seleção acrítico nestes hospitais, comprometendo a assistência farmacêutica e potencialmente prejudicando o sistema de saúde. Apesar da metodologia qualitativa não permitir a extrapolação de resultados, é possível que este cenário seja parecido com o de outros hospitais universitários brasileiros.Unitermos: Medicamentos/seleção para uso.

“…Quanto ao desafio de avançar na pesquisa científica, Guimarães (2004) reconhece que "se não vierem a ocorrer limitações da sistemática de fomento à C&T e mantido o ritmo atual de crescimento da produção científica brasileira, será possível superar na próxima década vários dos países concorrentes ainda situados a nossa frente, inserindo o Brasil no seleto grupo dos 10 países cientificamente mais desenvolvidos que são os maiores produtores de conhecimentos novos no mundo!" (p.309).…”
