RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: Translate, adapt and validate the Patient-Practitioner Orientation Scale (PPOS) for use in Brazil. METHODS: The PPOS was translated to Portuguese using a modified Delphi technique. The final version was applied to 360 participants. Reliability (test-retest and internal consistency) and construct validity (explanatory and confirmatory factor analysis) were assessed. RESULTS: Only two items did not reach pre-established criteria agreement in Delphi technique. In pre-testing, seven items were modified. Internal consistency (Cronbach's alpha=0.605) and test-retest reliability (intraclass correlation coefficient=0.670) were adequate. In explanatory factor analysis, one item did not achieve a loading factor, one item was considered factorially complex and two items were inconsistent with a priori factors. Confirmatory factor analysis provided an acceptable adjustment for the observed variables (χ(2)/df=2.33; GFI=0.91; AGFI=0.89; CFI=0.84; NFI=0.75; NNFI=0.81; RMSEA=0.062 (p=0.016) and SRMR=0.065). CONCLUSIONS: The Brazilian version PPOS (B-PPOS) showed acceptable validity and adequate reliability. PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS: The use of the B-PPOS in national and cross-cultural studies may contribute to the evaluation and monitoring of the attitudes of doctors, medical students and patients toward their professional relationships in research and practice.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: The doctor-patient relationship is essential to medical care (Engel 1980; Balint 1984), however, medical schools focus mainly on biomedical subjects and don't give the necessary attention to communication skills, humanistic attitudes, and professional values (Haidet et al. 2001, 2002). METHODS: Attitudes of medical students towards the doctor-patient relationship have been examined and the Patient-Practitioner Orientation Scale (PPOS) has been used to measure students' and practitioners' patient-centered beliefs, first in USA (Haidet et al. 2002), and then in several other countries (Choi & Moon 2005; Tsimtsiou et al. 2005; Shankar et al. 2006). This study aimed to examine the attitudes of Brazilian medical students towards the doctor-patient relationship by using the PPOS. The scale was translated into Portuguese and was administered to approximately 800 students in their first, fifth, seventh, ninth, tenth and twelfth semesters of medical school along with a socio-demographic questionnaire. RESULTS: A total of 738 students (>90%) completed data collection. For the entire cohort, female gender (p < 0.000), later semester in medical school (p < 0.000), primary-care specialty choice (p < 0.02) and lower familial income (p < 0.03) were significantly associated with more patient-centered attitudes. Sharing sub-scores, measuring beliefs about power and information between physician and patient, were significantly more patient-centered for twelfth semester male students than for first semester males (p < 0.000), but not for female students. Caring sub-scores, which measure beliefs about attending to patient's emotions and lifestyle, did not change with the years of school. In general, Caring scores were considerably higher than Sharing scores. Total PPOS scores in Brazil are comparable to those found among medical students in the United States, however they are considerably higher than PPOS total scores in Nepal, Greece, and Korea. CONCLUSIONS: Communication skills and patient care needs to be critically examined by Brazilian teachers and students aiming to change attitudes toward the doctor-patient relationship to be more patient-centered attitudes.
