Abstract
This study aims to analyze the importance of PEF in SUS, through the knowledge of professionals of Family Health Teams in 19 Basic Health Units (BHU) in the city of Apucarana, state of Parana. This is a cross-sectional quantitative study portrait of reality done using a self-answered questionnaire. A total of 68 professionals participated in the research: 13 community health workers (19%), 15 nursing technicians (22%), 13 dentists (19%), 14 nurses (20%), and 13 doctors (19%). Of the professionals, 32 of them (47%) have worked for over 10 years in the FHS, 19 (27%) from 6 to 10 years, 11 (16%) from 1 to 5 years, and 6 (9%) for less than 1 year. About 66 professionals have knowledge about NASF and 62 professionals know that the Physical Education Professional is part of the NASF team. Finally, 86% of professionals advise users to look for the Physical Education Professional and 100% believe that the practice of physical activity reduces the use of pharmacological intervention and avoids non-communicable chronic diseases. We can conclude that the professionals who make up the Family Health Strategy Teams in the city of Apucarana, state of Parana, are aware that the Physical Education Professional is part of NASF and know the benefits it provides to the system and its users.
