Body and health in the training of health professionals: a mapping of scientific production

Abstract

This article builds a mapping in order to analyze the theses and dissertations about body, health, curriculum and training of health professionals. For this, theses and dissertations were mapped in the period from 2010 to 2020 through a state-of-the-art study. The composition of the data is given by the presentation and discussion of the listed texts. As for research, these concern the production of bodies based on biotechnological discourses; professional training in health; others point to the curricula of health courses after the National Curriculum Guidelines (DCN); the performance of health professionals in relation to the Unified Health System (SUS); teaching strategies for health training; corporeidity in the curricula, especially in the curricula of the Physical Education course; the anatomoclinical body and educational health practices. In this perspective, some contributions, limits and possibilities of this academic production were observed.
