O IMPACTO DAS PRÁTICAS INTEGRATIVAS COMPLEMENTARES EM PACIENTES COM TRANSTORNO MENTAIS E DO COMPORTAMENTO.

In recent decades, health services and the community in general have been improving the care and protection of people with mental and behavioral disorders, which were so neglected in the past. There is a consensus on therapeutic resources and are based on scientific evidence that are strategies for the psychosocial rehabilitation of people with these types of disorders. The objective is to analyze the benefits of PICS in patients with mental and behavioral disorders in scientific studies with a higher degree of scientific evidence. A scoping review was carried out using the standardized terms: integrative practices, traditional medicine, mental health, humanization of care and patient-centered care with the Boolean operators “or” and “and” in PubMED. The result was 11 studies on the topic investigated; all studies were unanimous regarding the importance of PICs in the care of patients with mental and behavioral disorders. Final considerations: Complementary Integrative Practices (CIPs) have emerged as a relevant alternative in the treatment of mental and behavioral disorders, and are often used in conjunction with traditional care approaches, such as psychotherapy and medication.
