Abstract

Abstract: Introduction: Noncommunicable Chronic Diseases (NCDs), such as Diabetes and Hypertension are responsible for 2/3 of deaths in the world, with Diabetic Nephropathy (DN) representing the most important cause of chronic kidney disease. Health Literacy (HL) is one of the social determinants of health. To guide and expand the knowledge of patients and teams involved in the care of people with NCDs, and for a better approach to chronic complications of Diabetes and Hypertension, the development of learning objects (LO) was proposed. Experience Report: this study involved the construction of an educational video by a group of five students during the academic program of undergraduate Medical School in 2019. They proposed a guiding question in relation to DN from a theoretical material. The chosen question was: “What is the level of understanding of patients with diabetic nephropathy in relation to their own disease?”. They developed a questionnaire on diabetes and hypertension and their complications, which was answered by patients with diabetes who were treated at the specialized outpatient clinic, aiming to answer the proposed problem. They drew a synthesis from the analysis of the responses, of the possible gaps in relation to the understanding of the diseases. Then, a script was created with the description of these gaps with the medical explanation and an analogy was made with fishing nets for the video production, containing narratives, texts, audios and images. Finally, the video was presented to teachers and students in the classroom. Discussion: The characterization of the video as an LO implies constructing it as an educational component, self-sufficient, reusable and with the possibility of combining it with other LOs as new educational tools. Conclusion: The educational material was characterized as an LO. It allows pointing out aspects of the progression of DN and recommended medical orientations for the disease. It establishes a tool for group discussions and isolated actions based on succinct and evidence-based medical information. The video validation is undergoing validation for use in health services.

Summary

Conclusion

The educational material was characterized as an LO. It allows pointing out aspects of the progression of DN and recommended medical orientations for the disease. As doenças crônicas não transmissíveis (DCNT), como diabetes e hipertensão, são responsáveis por dois terços das mortes no mundo. A nefropatia diabética (ND) ou doença renal do diabetes é uma complicação que acomete de 20% a 40% dos pacientes com diabetes mellitus (DM) e representa a principal causa de doença renal crônica no mundo[1,2]. Para orientação e ampliação de conhecimento dos pacientes e das equipes envolvidas no cuidado de pessoas com DCNT, foi proposta a elaboração de objetos de aprendizagem (OA) que abordassem as complicações crônicas do diabetes e da hipertensão
