MULTIDISCIPLINARY APPROACH IN THE CARE OF PSYCHIATRIC OUTBREAKS IN URGENCY AND EMERGENCY SETTINGS: A LITERATURE REVIEW

Resumen

Introduction: patients diagnosed with psychiatric disorders, before the psychiatric reform, were isolated from society and admitted to asylums, in a coercive manner, without ethical and human support from the multidisciplinary treatment team. Objective: to contribute to reflection on care practices and improvement of care for individuals experiencing a psychiatric outbreak directed to the urgent and emergency care network. Method: a theoretical, descriptive, exploratory literature review was carried out in the Virtual Health Library (BVS). The inclusion criteria were articles published between 2019 and 2023, complete, available online, free of charge in national or international journals, in the Portuguese language. Results: seven articles responded to the proposed methodological compliances and criteria and encouraged discussion on the research topic. Conclusion: patients in a psychiatric outbreak were directed to the Emergency Care Units (UPA), but the reception according to law 10.216/2011 is not done with mastery, given that there is a lack of professional qualifications in the multidisciplinary team and difficulties related to the physical structure from the emergency room to specific reception.
