Abstract

This research is part of the national project entitled: Comprehensive Health Care for Women in Situations of Violence carried out by the Health Promotion Unit and Peace Department of Preventive and Social Medicine / FM / UFMG in partnership with the Ministry of Health, which has as main objective, to train professionals focused on the provision of health care, integral and humanized, to women in situations of violence. Violence, in various forms as it stands, has become a serious social problem in Brazil and in the world that affects the individual and collective health, causing premature morbidity and loss of quality of life in all cycles, still being one of the most significant causes of family and personal trauma. Its high prevalence is evident, as is evident the need to improve the care of these women. In this sense, the research had as main objective to understand the perception of managers responsible for the technical health areas of women of Brazilian states and capitals on violence against women. 5 seminars (one in each region of the country) that we call macro-regional seminars were held. The target audience of the seminars were managers, managers and coordinators of the National Network for Attention to Women in Situations of Violence at a macro-region. To collect the data used as a source of research, focus groups guided by a script. For the treatment of the data, we chose the qualitative method of Bardin content analysis, Minayo, which allowed us to identify three categories: "Violence and related factors"; "Culture and violence - Relationship man and woman"; "Violence is silent." And the last, we created four sub-categories: "the affection Silence"; "Silence of shame"; "Dependency Silence"; "Silence of fear." We analyzed the data, through selected articles in MEDLINE (Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System Online) , LILACS (Latin American and Caribbean Health Sciences) , SciELO (Scientific Electronic Library Online) and BIREME (Biblioteca regional Medical). In search of the articles, the following descriptors were used: violence against women; gender violence ; health sector and health professionals . We selected 29 publications , as inclusion criteria: the violence against women as a major subject of research by the authors and the health sector in this context. After systematic review and BOOK REPORT corpus of research, we started with the processing of data. We chose to present the end results and discussion in an article entitled: "Violence and related factors: perception of managers of the technical areas of women's health at the national level." It presents the analysis of participants' speech managers focus groups in macro-regional Seminars. The article will be submitted to a scientific journal later, still undefined. According to the discussion and results, we showed that in general, the managers know the problem of violence against women and understand their origin, however assume that the health sector presents difficulties in the possibilities of coping interventions phenomenon to be treated issues of cultural order that is naturalized in society, and even sustained by the woman herself. But these same managers also assume the lack of management and preparation to deal with the victims and suggest a training routine by the bodies in which they operate. Therefore, we must train professionals, sensitizing them about the issues, enabling them to be important elements in the process of breaking the cycle of violence in partnership with the victimized woman, raising their self-esteem, recovering their dignity and achieving their freedom.
