Abstract(s)
As Ciências Farmacêuticas abarcam uma ampla gama de áreas profissionais. A sua
multidisciplinaridade implica que os seus alunos aprendam conhecimentos das mais variadas
ordens, conferindo-lhes as bases que os habilitam a enveredar por qualquer um dos caminhos
possíveis. Como tal, ao longo de cinco anos, os alunos são apresentados a uma ampla série de
conhecimentos teóricos, ultimados por uma unidade curricular de “Estágio”. Nesta pretendese
fazer a aplicação dos conceitos teóricos num contexto profissional, exercitando a sua
vertente prática. O estágio é um momento fulcral na formação do futuro profissional: facilita
a transição e inserção profissional, consolida conhecimentos e, principalmente, sensibiliza o
aluno para a realidade da profissão na atualidade.
O estágio foi subdividido em três componentes, abrangendo algumas das áreas com maior
representatividade profissional: Farmácia Hospitalar, Farmácia Comunitária e Investigação.
Do mesmo modo, o presente relatório descreve as várias competências exploradas por área,
seguindo a ordem cronológica pela qual se iniciaram. Cada componente corresponde a um
capítulo, cuja estrutura difere conforme adequado. Assim, este relatório pretende descrever
o panorama que envolve cada área e de como este foi compreendido no meio laboral.
O primeiro capítulo dedica-se à descrição do trabalho de investigação conduzido. Com a
ordem habitual de um artigo científico, este descreve os vários passos seguidos na
investigação das propriedades antidiarreicas da planta Trifolium angustifolium. Após revisão
bibliográfica, foram pesquisados taninos em vários extratos da planta, em virtude da
atividade antidiarreica característica destes compostos. Foi possível encontrar taninos na
maioria dos extratos obtidos, obtendo-se uma pista que apoia a potencial ação da planta.
O segundo capítulo relata o primeiro estágio curricular, realizado durante oito semanas nos
Serviços Farmacêuticos do Centro Hospitalar da Cova da Beira. Foram abrangidas quatro áreas
fundamentais da farmácia hospitalar, pelas quais vim a transitar em períodos quinzenais, na
seguinte ordem: ambulatório, dose unitária, armazenamento e farmacotecnia. Ao fim das
várias transições, compreendi que todas as áreas se interligam, promovendo em conjunto o
ótimo funcionamento dos serviços farmacêuticos. Como tal, optei por descrever as várias
atividades de farmácia hospitalar seguindo a perspetiva do circuito do medicamento, desde a
aquisição ao uso, particularizando a farmacotecnia como área individual. Neste relato revejo
conceitos aprendidos, atividades executadas e competências adquiridas.
O terceiro capítulo descreve o segundo estágio curricular, realizado na Farmácia Pedroso. Ao
longo de três meses vim a observar todo o funcionamento de uma farmácia. De modo lógico,
o primeiro mês iniciou-se sem contacto com o público, permitindo que tomasse conhecimento
com os tipos de medicamentos e produtos comercializados, regras vigentes e procedimentos
mais indicados para atuação. Compreendi que, tal como na farmácia hospitalar, o
funcionamento de uma farmácia comunitária depende de várias áreas em simultâneo. Optei, então, por redigir a descrição do meu estágio procurando, novamente, seguir o circuito do
medicamento, com a apresentação dos medicamentos manipulados a posteriori. Assim,
revejo os conhecimentos que adquiri, as atividades que executei e as experiencias que
cumulei.
Pharmaceutical Sciences cover a wide range of professional areas. Their multidisciplinary condition imply the need for their students to learn various kinds of knowledge, providing them the skills to embark on any pathway possible. As such, during five years, students are presented with a wide series of theoretical knowledge, with a final curricular unit of “Internship”. This intends to apply the learned concepts in a professional context, exercising their practical side. The internship is a central moment in forming the future professional: it eases the transition and professional insertion, consolidates knowledge and, mainly, sensitizes the student to current professional reality. The internship was subdivided in three components, including some of the areas with largest professional representativeness: Hospital Pharmacy, Community Pharmacy and Investigation. Likewise, this report describes the various skills explored in each, following the chronological order of their beginning. Each component corresponds to one chapter, whose structure differs as adequate. Thus, this report wants to provide a general view surrounding each area and the way it was comprehended in the working environment. The first chapter accounts for the research work done. With the usual order of a scientific article, it describes the various steps followed in investigating the antidiarrheal proprieties of the plant Trifolium angustifolium. After bibliographical review, tannins were searched in several plant extracts, due to their antidiarrheal characteristic quality. It was possible to find tannins in most of the obtained extracts, providing clues, which give support the potential action of the plant. The second chapter describes the first curricular internship, carried along eight weeks in Centro Hospitalar da Cova da Beira’s Pharmaceutical Services. The internship covered four fundamental areas of hospital pharmacy, by whom I came to transit fortnightly, in the following order: ambulatory, unitary dosing, storage and pharmacotechnics. At the end of the rotations, I understood that all the areas interconnect, promoting together an optimal Pharmaceutical Services’ operation. As such, I opted to describe the various areas comprised by hospital pharmacy following the medicine circuit point of view, from acquisition to usage, individualizing pharmacotechnics as a separate area. In this report, I review learned concepts, done activities and acquired skills. The third chapter describes the second curricular internship, carried in Farmácia Pedroso. Along three months, I came to observe all the workings in a pharmacy. Logically, the first month started without contact with the public, allowing me to recognize the type’s of medicines and products commercialized, current rules and more indicated procedures of action. Like hospital pharmacy, I understood that the workings of community pharmacy depend on several areas simultaneously. Therefore, I opted to write the description of my internship, pursuing, again, the medicines circuit, presenting manipulates a posteriori. In this way, I review the acquired knowledge, the developed activities and the cumulated experiences.
