Resumen
Introduction: Multidisciplinary teamwork provides a better operationalization of the principles of the SUS. The integration of the physiotherapist into the family health strategy team will enable greater results in the field of public health. Studies that identified the profile and prognosis of patients assisted by physiotherapy in basic health units are scarce. Objective: To identify the profile and prognosis of patients assisted in physiotherapy in the town of São Miguel da Boa Vista/Santa Catarina. Development: This is a cross-sectional study, delimited to the health unit of São Miguel da Boa Vista/SC. Data were collected from physiotherapeutic treatments carried out over 8 years. Data collection took place through medical records, covering socio-demographic, psychological and psychological issues. Results: 8576 individual consultations were carried out, of which 63% were female and 37% were male. The predominant age group was between 41 and 60 years (45% of attendances). Most were farmers and housewives (25% each). 34% of patients had diagnoses of spinal disorders, of which 63% had low back pain. 54% of patients had complete improvement of the clinical picture and 2% had no improvement. Final Considerations: The highest prevalence of attendances was of patients with musculoskeletal disorders of the spine (low back pain). In order to try to minimize these high incidences, a comprehensive base work is necessary, acting, mainly, in the preventive plan and not only in rehabilitation. The strategic planning based on this survey was the creation of Pilates Groups for patients with low back pain.
