Problema:
Os direitos fundamentais das pessoas transgênero são negados cotidianamente. Neste cenário, o preconceito age como determinante social de saúde impactando na prevalência de problemas como saúde mental e infecções sexualmente transmissíveis (ISTs). O objetivo foi o desenvolvimento de um sumário de evidências para apoiar o atendimento clínico e embasar a capacitação dos profissionais da Atenção Primária de Saúde de Florianópolis - SC, a fim de melhorar os resultados de saúde dessa população. Métodos:
Baseado na ferramenta PACK – interface acessível e intuitiva no modelo pergunte, solicite, aconselhe e trate – já implementada no município de Florianópolis. O método de revisão rápida foi utilizado para busca de evidência, priorizando sumários de prática clínica e protocolos internacionais. Fontes primárias foram utilizadas quando os dados anteriores eram insuficientes ou conflitantes. As perguntas de pesquisa seguiram o acrônimo PICO e a recomendação foi classificada de acordo com a adaptação GRADE do Center of Excellence for Transegender Health. Resultados:
Foi criado o Guia Rápido para Prática de Atenção à Saúde da População Transgênero aos moldes do PACK Brasil. O mesmo aguarda aprovação do PACK Brasil e do Ambulatório de Atenção Integral à População Transexual de Florianópolis para futura incorporação do material. Conclusão:
Apesar da falta de evidência de qualidade e estudos voltados para a população específica, a existência de diretrizes nesse campo legitima a necessidade de atenção à saúde transgênero, além de auxiliar profissionais de saúde e formuladores de políticas sobre como atender a essas necessidades. Na perspectiva de redução de danos, devemos transpor a barreira do estigma social e institucional para produção de diretrizes consensuais em busca de equidade para população transgênero.
Problem:
The fundamental rights of transgender people are denied daily. In this scenario, prejudice acts as a social determinant of health impacting on the prevalence of conditions such as mental health and STIs. The objective was to develop a summary of evidence to support clinical care and support the training of Primary Health Care professionals in Florianópolis - SC, in order to improve the health outcomes of this population. Methods:
Based on the PACK tool - accessible and intuitive interface in the ask, request, advise and treat model - already implemented in the municipality of Florianópolis. The rapid review method was used to search for evidence, prioritizing clinical practice summaries and international protocols. Primary sources were used when previous data were insufficient or conflicting. The research questions followed the acronym PICO and the recommendation was classified according to the GRADE adaptation of the Center of Excellence for Transgender Health. Results:
The Quick Guide for the Health Care Practice of Transgender Population was created according to the mold of PACK Brazil. It is awaiting approval from PACK Brazil and the Ambulatory of Integral Attention to the Transsexual Population of Florianópolis for future incorporation of the material. Conclusion:
Despite the lack of quality evidence and studies focused on the specific population, the existence of guidelines in this field legitimizes the need for transgender health care, in addition to assisting health professionals and policy makers on how to address these needs. In the perspective of harm reduction, we must overcome the barrier of social and institutional stigma to produce consensual guidelines in search of equity for the transgender population.
