SUMMARY:

 

Knowledge Translation (KT) refers to the process of applying research findings in real-world settings. It is a participatory and dynamic process that strengthens healthcare systems, aids decision-making, and improves the population's health outcomes. This study aimed to analyze KT from the perspective of professionals, managers, and users in the context of care for individuals with non-communicable chronic diseases (NCDs) in Primary Health Care (PHC). It was an observational, descriptive, cross-sectional study with a quantitative approach conducted in the V Regional Unit of Public Health (URSAP), located in the Trairi and Potengi Health Region, Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil. This study is a subset of the research project titled "Caring: Enhancing Comprehensive Care for Non-Communicable Chronic Diseases in the Agreste Potiguar," developed by researchers from the Faculty of Health Sciences of Trairi - FACISA / UFRN, conducted between February and December 2022. The sample consisted of 130 participants, including 58 professionals, 17 managers, and 55 users of Primary Health Care (PHC). All ethical precepts were respected. Data collection was conducted using semi-structured questionnaires developed by the researchers and directed toward professionals, managers, and users of PHC. A descriptive analysis of the data was performed, including measures of central tendency and relative and absolute frequencies. Statistical treatment was carried out using SPSS software version 22.0. The results were presented in three articles. The first article aimed to investigate KT in the care of non-communicable chronic diseases (NCDs) from the perspective of managers and professionals in PHC. The sample included 58 professionals and 17 health managers, with the majority of participants being female (74.2%). Fifty percent of professionals reported not having knowledge about KT, while 41.2% of managers reported having heard about KT but were unable to explain or define it. It was found that the majority (96.6%) did not receive management support to participate in KT training with a focus on NCDs. The second article aimed to investigate how KT occurs in the context of care for non-communicable chronic diseases (NCDs) from the perspective of users and professionals in Primary Health Care (PHC). The sample consisted of 58 professionals and 55 PHC users, with the majority being female. It was observed that users sought information by visiting the healthcare unit in person and through community health workers. They did not encounter difficulties in understanding the guidance provided by professionals, who adopted a language that was easily understandable. According to professionals, KT occurred through the transmission of information during individual consultations. The third article aimed to report the experience of knowledge translation and dissemination through the use of digital communication tools in the care of non-communicable chronic diseases in PHC. Official databases were consulted for KT purposes regarding NCDs. To disseminate knowledge, infographics, informative cards, videos, podcasts, and lay summaries were produced and targeted to the intended audience. These materials were then shared on digital platforms and local radio stations in the Trairi and Potengi regions. Digital communication tools allowed for a broader reach of the target audience, which can facilitate health promotion and improve access to information about NCDs.
