RESUMO

The health inter-professional performance has been an important element for the production of health actions, face to the complex health-disease process. A challenge on the health work is to seek the workers commitment, on the perspective to produce an integral care. On the present context, where the care experiences under the integrality axle for the patients in critical clinical situations are still incipient, this investigation sets as the study subject the inter-professional action on the attendance of the patients health care needs in critical clinical or surgical situations. Thus, this study has as general objective: to produce, according to Habermas, critical analysis of the inter-professional performance on the intensive therapy context on the perspective of the health cares integrality. For this, we have gone through moments to comprehend the performance of the professionals that make part of the health team; to interpret the possibilities and difficulties to interact between the different health professionals, and to comprehend the potentialities and weaknesses of the inter-professional articulation. We have chosen the situations of admission, discharge, and clinical visit to the patients on the Intensive Care Unit as potential events for apprehension of the inter-professional practice. This study is inserted on the qualitative research approach and consists of a descriptive study, electing the case study as the investigation modality. The Intensive Care Unit in the Hospital das Clínicas I in Marilia has been chosen as empiric field. The research subjects are physicians, nurses, physiotherapists and nutritionists that have acted as observed events. The empiric material caption has been observation of the scenery and semi-structured interviews to the health professionals. For treatment of the empirical material, we have used the sense interpretations technique. The analysis has allowed us to identify two thematic axles: the health care directed to the individual needs and the relation to the professional performance, giving the biomedical point of view, fragmented on the care and focused on the task; the possibilities on the transformation of the health care under the perspective of the care integrality and the communicative act show that the instrumental action is related to the multi-professional interaction while the communicative action is related to the inter-professionality. We have finished this study by reflecting on the nurse practice, which shows the importance of the articulation of health actions regarding the skin integrality of the patient on bed.
