SUMMARY:

Introduction: The supervised internship in Clinical Analysis at Onofre Lopes University Hospital (HUOL) is organized by sectors, reflecting the fragmentation of the undergraduate curriculum. This hinders the integration of knowledge essential to professional practice. In response to this challenge, case-based learning (CBL) emerges as a promising pedagogical strategy to promote interdisciplinarity and the development of clinical-laboratory reasoning. Objective: Analyze the impact of ABC as a strategy for the integration of knowledge in clinical analysis internships at a university hospital. Method: A mixed-methods case study was conducted. Two interdisciplinary clinical cases (diabetes mellitus and chronic kidney disease) were validated by clinical analysts and applied to 13 participants divided into two groups. Students’ perceptions about their experiences were assessed using a structured questionnaire with a Likert scale and open-ended questions, as well as a focus group. The data were submitted to descriptive statistical analysis and thematic-categorical content analysis. Results: Participants reported a positive experience with CBL. They perceived the methodology as a stimulus for critical thinking, knowledge integration, and interprofessional collaboration between courses. Initial insecurity was overcome, creating an environment of trust that promoted active participation, as encouraged by the facilitators. Students highlighted the development of technical and social skills, and they unanimously advocated for the permanent implementation of CBL as an internship activity. Conclusions: CBL is a viable strategy for promoting knowledge integration in the Clinical Analysis internship and contributing to prepare future professionals for the complex challenges of laboratory practice.
