Análise do impacto do Estágio Supervisionado sobre o desempenho da Policlínica Odontológica Central da Brigada Militar: enfoque em resultados

Abstract

The aim of this study was to analyze the impact of supervised internship (ES) of students from FO-UFRGS, focusing on results, on the performance of the Dental Central Polyclinic (POC) of Brigada Militar (BM) in the period between April-2008 and December-2009. To do so, a monthly survey of the number of treated patients (PA) and the number of dental procedures (PO) performed by trainees (E) and dentists (CD) of the service during the period was conducted. From the comparison of PA and PO performed by E and CD, productivity indicators of the ES (IPE) for PA (IPE-pa) and PO (IPE-po) were proposed and calculated, as well as an indicator of overall productivity of the ES (IPE-g). The results showed average values of IPE-pa = 1.63 (± 0.74), IPE-po = 1.48 (± 0.49) and IPE-g = 1.55 (± 0.57), indicating that the ES provided a general increase in productivity equivalent to more than one and a half (1.5) CD per month for the service of POC, showing average monthly increase of 10.46% in the overall productivity of the service.
