RESUMO Objetivo: Esta pesquisa buscou conhecer o padrão de sono e a sonolência diurna dos estudantes de medicina no regime regular e no internato, bem como comparar os resultados obtidos. Metodologia: Realizou-se uma análise quantitativa transversal, com caráter descritivo, com os estudantes de medicina da Universidade do Planalto Catarinense. Foram aplicados questionários que continham os instrumentos Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI) para avaliação objetiva da qualidade do sono e o Epworth Sleepiness Scale(ESS) para avaliação da sonolência diurna. Os acadêmicos foram divididos em dois grupos sendo o primeiro do 1-4° ano com turno regular e os estudantes do 5-6° ano no regime de internato. E após foram comparados estatisticamente. Resultados: Participaram da pesquisa 134 estudantes, sendo 60 homens (44,8%) e 74 mulheres (55,2%), com média de idade de 24,05 anos (DP±3,66).Quanto aos resultados dos questionários foi verificada uma média do índice total do PSQI de 6,48 pontos (DP±4,71) e da ESS 9,30 pontos (DP±4,71). Os estudantes do internato apresentaram menor duração do sono, pior sensação subjetiva da qualidade do sono, enquanto os acadêmicos do turno regular apresentaram maior latência do sono p<0,05. Não houve diferenças estatísticas entre os grupos dos escores totais do PSQI e ESS, sendo que, 59 % possuem qualidade ruim de sono. Conclusão: É notável a má qualidade do sono, com importante diminuição das horas totais dormidas. As implicações da insônia crônica e sua influência no desempenho acadêmico e profissional já estão bem estabelecidas, há necessidade de intervenção nas grades curriculares, medidas indispensáveis para correção deste problema. Descritores: Estudantes de Medicina. Sono. Privação do Sono. Distúrbios do Sono por Sonolência Excessiva. Transtornos do Sono. ABSTRACTObjective: This research aimed to know the pattern of sleep and daytime sleepiness of medical students in regular grade and medical internsand compare the results. Methodology: We performed a cross-sectional quantitative analysis, with descriptive character, with medical students at the University of Planalto Catarinense. Questionnaires were applied containing the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index to objectively evaluate quality of sleep and the Epworth Sleepiness Scale for assessing daytime sleepiness. The students were divided into two groups being the first of the 1-4 th year with regular shift and the medical internson the 5-6 th year. And after were compared statistically. Results: Participated in the study 134 students, 60 men (44.8%) and 74 women (55.2%) with mean age of 24.05 years (SD ± 3.66). As the measures the questionnaires found a mean total PSQI index of 6.48 points (SD ± 4.71) and ESS 9.30 points (SD ± 4.71). Medical interns had shorter duration of sleep, feeling worse subjective sleep quality, while the students of the regular grade had greater sleep latency p <0.05. There no statistical differences between the groups of the total scores of PSQI and ESS, being that 59% have poor quality sleep. Conclusion: It is notab...

Objective: to identify the use of medicinal plants for the treatment and prevention of diseases used by residents of the AMURES region (Association of Municipalities in the Mountain Region). Methodology: a qualitative and quantitative exploratory descriptive research was carried out at the AMURES Health Consortium in Lages, SC, totaling one hundred interviews in total. Results: It was analyzed that 67% of the interviewees were female and 33% male. Medicinal plants were mentioned as a form of use due to family tradition by 43.6% of respondents. There were 200 quotes about who taught them to practice, with 32% citing that their grandparents taught them to practice. Respondents 75% stated that they taught their practices of using medicinal plants to their children. The medicinal plants most used by the interviewees were: marcela 11.41%, lemon balm 10.51%, mint 9.61%, wormwood 4.8%, artichoke 4.5%, chamomile 3.6%, of which 55.56 % were other plants. Of the interviewees, 94 people mentioned that they use medicinal plants in tea format, 5 use them on the skin and 1 mentioned that they use them on the scalp. Conclusion: With this, it was observed that the use of medicinal plants is still present by residents of the AMURES Region.

Scientific Research held during graduation provides students with better training, by allowing the improvement of activities related to their future profession, a better relationship between teachers and students, as well as enabling the knowledge of research methodology. The purpose of this work is to identify the Scientific Research conducted during the medical degree at Universidade do Planalto Catarinense-UNIPLAC, since the implementation of this course at the University (2004) until July 2013. Through a descriptive and quantitative approach, the data related to the scientific research conducted during the medical degree were held. Fifty-eight Scientific Researches were performed by students, who were instructed by qualified teachers. From this information, the fields of knowledge covered by the Scientific Projects were recognized, as well as the profile of researchers. The epidemiology was the field related to the greatest approach and it covered twenty-eight Scientific Researches. Females predominate among the researchers, with a participation of thirty-one exhibitioners and fifteen advisors. The researches were carried out mainly by students who study the early years of medical degree. The tripod Research, Education and Extension are very important as they introduce the students to the scientific universe during graduation, encourage them to produce knowledge and technology through their own researches after the degree, contribute to a better academic background, and provide a continuous update during the professional life, and encourage self-taught professionals.

In Brazil, the National Curricular Guidelines (DCN) have determined that the medical professsional must act in the primary and secondary levels of attention and solve the prevalent health issues with quality. UNIPLAC's medical course was created in 2004, enrolling 40 students per year, with an innovative methodological proposal of active teaching: the Problem-Based Learning (ABP). Furthermore, UNIPLAC's medical course offers support scenarios of extreme importance to the students, such as Laboratory of Professional Practice (LPP) and Morphofunctional Laboratory (LMF). LPP promotes the learning of semiology skills, medical procedures, clinical laboratory and communication. The objective is to identify the student's attendance in LMF. A quantitative and descriptive research was conducted through reading the LMF's logbook between January 2004 and December 2012. The focus of the research was tutors and teachers who were in the coordination of the medical course. LMF is a privileged space for the development of the pedagogical approach based on problematization and integration of a several learning areas.
